...might have finally hooked something bigger. Starr must conclude his grand jury inquiry into Arkansas matters next week, which is one reason why his team deposed Hillary Clinton for five hours on Saturday. Starr himself questioned the First Lady at the White House about a sham real estate deal called Castle Grande, for which she did some legal work in the '80s. She testified about four memos related to that project but denied any wrongdoing...
...dating back to 1921 and 1940 that declare the sea a common lake between the two countries. Tehran is willing to negotiate a new agreement but demands veto rights over any aspect it doesn't like.

From behind the scenes, the image of a truculent, unrepentant Mary then emerged. She stopped taking the Depakote--her doctor approved, wrongly thinking she would quickly change to lithium, another medication used to treat bipolar disorder--and started telling friends that she and Vili were truly in love. "Since when do people who love each other have to defend it?" she would ask. She quarreled with...
