...lack of glamour. Some viewers have grown tired of seeing stylish young people on The Real World deconstruct their lives over fine coffee in well-appointed lofts. But it is preferable to watching the Road Rules ensemble tackle such messy chores as emptying the RV's latrine at a dump station. In The Real World, living groups are overloaded with preternaturally cute aspiring actors, models and musicians. The Road Rules crew is more ordinary -- five average-looking college-age men and women with no discernible show-biz goals -- but also less captivating. Kit, an energetic Georgia party girl...
...Insiders say that the Port-au-Prince mayoral election results are so explosive that public reaction to them could jeopardize national stability, TIME's Tammerlin Drummond reports. Haitian folk singer Mano Charlemagne, the putative winner, performs songs urging his fellow countrymen to kill all former Tontons Macoutes and dump their corpses on the doorstep of the U.S. special forces.

A dismissive Carter used its entryway as a place to dump the debris he was hauling out of Tut's tomb...
...carried out the raid several hours after a deadline had passed for the Serbs to stop their shelling of Sarajevo and return heavy weapons toU.N. control. There were no casualties reported in the attack, and it did not appear to discourage the Serbs. Minutes after the ammunition dump went up in flames, Serb soldiers sent several mortar rounds into Sarajevo. After the raid, U.N. officials presented Serb leader Radovan Karadzic with another ultimatum: stop the shelling and give the weapons back by tomorrow, or face another bombing. Karadzic did not immediately respond...
