...York police, powerful Moscow Mayor Yury Luzhkov recently oversaw a special operation, code-named "Foreigner," in which city traffic police zoomed in on foreign-owned cars, levying fines and confiscating license plates. Roughly 1,000 cars were stopped by city traffic cops, known by their Russian acronym GAI (gai-EE), during the two-day operation, which ended Thursday. Famed throughout Moscow for their ability to disperse fines, as well as collect bribes, with lightning speed, the GAI have reported somewhat triumphantly that Americans accounted for the majority of the 200 traffic violations detected.

...cows hardly represent the limits of ASCII art. Even something as complex as a rendition of the Mona Lisa-composed of letters, semi-colons, dollar signs and other miscellaneous symbols-is possible.

Puns may be the lowest form of humor, but in this movie such wordplay is the only possible accompaniment for the pictureplay that runs throughout this merry story of "a modern Stone Age fam-il-ee": newspapers carved in stone; cars powered by feet; prehistoric creatures employed as primitive, parodic versions of contemporary labor-saving devices (dinosaurs are adapted to be lawn mowers, garbage disposals, even a bowling-alley pinsetter). Yes, it's business as it usually was on the old animated TV show. But nothing...
...days before the trial begins, tourists are making the curious trek to Waco, as they have steadily since the nightmarish days. They don't see much out on EE Road: piles of broken beams and concrete, the husks of two old cars and a trailer, and the Silver Streak Express -- Koresh's bus, which somehow survived the flames and which security guards use as a warming hut -- are about all that remains of the compound. A broken high chair and rusted toys lying in the gray earth provide reminders of the young dead...
