...dismissed suit, which has been followed feverishly by activists on the left and right, was filed on behalf of Journalists Tony Avirgan and Martha Honey, who claimed that the 1984 bombing of a press conference held by Nicaraguan Rebel Leader Eden Pastora Gomez was the work of 29 conspirators, including retired Generals Richard Secord and John Singlaub and former CIA Deputy Director of Operations Theodore Shackley.

...price of just six months ago. God must be a Democrat, somebody muttered near the White House.

Clint Eastwood stood in front of the Hotel du Cap's Eden Roc restaurant and surveyed this fairy-tale domain. As Bird, his bebop bio-pic of Jazzman Charlie Parker, was unspooling a few miles down the Riviera at the 41st Cannes Film Festival, Eastwood reminisced about the small indignities that beset a larger- than-life movie hero.
