...than warehouse (this year's 10-day event showed an indigestible 455 hours of films), and by its persistent good humor. Even the occasional eccentrics?like the tough guy at a screening of Kim Tae Gyun's Volcano High who was moved to shout, "Korean movies rule!"?show more cheer than menace. There are no tiffs at TIFF. "Nice" is a compliment Torontonians don't care for, but until they start mistreating the film professionals who come here from across North America, Europe and Asia, they are stuck with...
...BEER CHEER Suds fans toasted themselves last week when a Wall Street Journal article suggested that a beer might offer more protection against coronary disease, stroke and hypertension than the much touted glass of red wine. While both grape and brew have their champions, other researchers say it's the alcohol in moderation--no matter the form--that delivers the health benefit...
Exquisitely rare is the news item that can induce a satisfied smile in both Ariel Sharon and Yasser Arafat. But both men have reason to cheer the passing of Abu Nidal, the Palestinian terrorist mastermind who, depending on who you believe, either killed himself or was shot dead this week in Baghdad.

Stalwart in their support, these fútbol aficionados were undeterred by 4 a.m. broadcasts, and camped out in their neighborhood bars to show (and voice) their support. Burrowing my head under my pillow, I prayed for silence, central air and the widespread distribution...
...plan raises divisions aplenty on the Palestinian side, too. Those under curfew in the West Bank cities will see little to cheer in a "Gaza-first" cease-fire, and even Arafat's own cabinet was divided over whether to accept Ben Eliezer's offer. Gaza is a stronghold of Hamas, whose political standing continues to grow at the expense of Arafat's own Fatah movement. The PA's approach to implementing a cease-fire there may depend, in large part, on securing Hamas's agreement to such a step, on the basis that both sides would prefer to avoid...
