...Haidian. In the 1980s this area?40 minutes northwest of the city center?was a hotbed of student activism. Now, in the hutongs across from Peking University's West Gate, local and foreign DJs spin regularly at Solutions. For directions, call (86-10) 6255-8877. Or try First Avenue Caf? and Bar at (86-10) 6264-0702. The atmosphere at both places is plain wild...
...Which brings us to the emotional depths this show is willing to plumb. Last week's Outback Internet Caf? was bad enough as an Apple ad and a Hallmark prize, but at least it was mercifully short. Some tears, a marriage proposal, a couple of smiley faces and it was over. This time, Colby's mama didn't just come for dinner, and smear a little mascara over how thin he'd gotten. She stayed over.

...loss for the quarter that ended in December 1998.

Throw in Rania?s support for Jordanian charities and causes like child-abuse awareness, and you start to see a figure much like Princess Diana. But Rania has good relations with her mother-in-law -- actually, both mothers-in-law. British...
...took Arafat severely to task for releasing imprisoned Islamic guerillas who had been involved in earlier terrorist attacks against Israelis, The Washington Post reports. While U.S. officials denied Israeli charges that Arafat explicitly gave the go-ahead for attacks such as last week's explosion in a Tel Aviv caf? that killed three Israeli women, electronic recordings of conversations between Arafat and Hamas leaders show that by not expressly forbidding a resumption of suicide bombings, Arafat gave extremist leaders the impression that he would support such a decision, the paper said. The conversations followed on the heels of a trip...
