...Married (1986), Ames' last screen role. In all, he appeared in more than 100 films. His television work also had a fatherly bent, as in the short-lived series Life with Father and Father of the Bride. His best- known TV role was the neighbor Gordon Kirkwood on Mr. Ed. A founder of the Screen Actors Guild at a clandestine 1933 meeting, Ames served in a variety of union posts, including national president...
...nominations before agreeing to people he and Francois find acceptable. Once again, Aristide would be a figurehead, a symbol the world could toast as Haiti's real power was held by goons. Having heard nothing by Saturday afternoon, Cedras seemed to budge again. In an interview with TIME's Ed Barnes, Cedras waved a copy of the U.N. Charter as he declared the U.S. embargo ''illegal.'' Nevertheless, he said, ''I don't want to renegotiate Governors Island. Just a few interpretative problems'' need resolution. ''We've given up a lot but the other side has given nothing.''

...pursuit of it as a President's wife is a major topic of debate. Elysee officials have made no secret that they believe the "Carla Factor" helped Sarkozy bounce back from slumping approval ratings this spring.

Produced and co-written by David Simon and Ed Burns, who took a similar approach to America's urban ills in the brilliant HBO cop drama The Wire, Kill is no fictional critique. It's based on the book by embedded journalist Evan Wright, and the adaptation is faithful to his book down to the precise dialogue...
Each of these shows believes that environmentalism will sell only if it's made glamorous. But Planet Green's better celeb shows take just the opposite approach. In Living with Ed, Begley offers tips from his home, no pimped-out eco-pad but a modest Studio City bungalow where he fusses with a solar oven and plugs in his electric car. Self-deprecating and charmingly nerdy, Begley is no dilettante, having immersed himself in low-impact living long before anyone was devoting cable channels to it. Yes, the show's concept is hokey--Begley's Green Acres bickering with...
