...either destroys you or makes you stronger," Iqbal says of his incarceration. "I think it made me stronger." If the movie's remorseless depiction of this nightmare doesn't shock audiences into numbness--United 93 is a Hallmark card compared with this horror show--they may be inspired by the stubborn bravery of Iqbal and his friends. Documents like this are supposed to open our eyes, even if we would rather shut them to the awful realities on view. Release date: June...
...inflating a latex glove with his nose? Says Mandel, of NBC's Deal or No Deal: Part of it is hard work. The comic and former St. Elsewhere co-star pooh-poohed the job when it was offered--"I couldn't see myself reading trivia questions off a card"--but one backed-up money truck later, he calls it "the most creative thing I've ever done."

Vince Camden is 36, single, broad shouldered and thin, like a martini glass.

Chances are those medical tourists will touch down in Bombay, since 40% of international...
...second half was barely 2 minutes old when the U.S., which anticipated playing with a man advantage for a half, now found itself down a man when Eddie Pope was given his marching orders by Mr. Larrionda for a second yellow-card foul. The U.S. crowd, some 10,000 of whom filled one corner of the arena, let loose with that classic "Bullshit, Bullshit" chant and began flinging plastic cups, some of them half filled to get greater distance.
