Another threat to the plan comes from Mexico, which has seemingly few intentions to cooperate. Says Fernando Estrada Samano, a National Action Party deputy: "We will not stop migrant workers from looking for a better quality of life in the U.S." Social strains are already being felt on the Mexican side of the border. In Tijuana, where much of its floating population of 15,000 migrant workers found itself stranded, petty crime has risen 10% since Operation Gatekeeper began.

Substitute forward Shawn Cassella--given six inches in height, a dead ringer for U.S. international defender Fernando Clavijo--caught the Crimson too far forward just as Kohler had beaten Hartwick earlier, getting by Harvard's defense and finishing past substitute keeper Ben Weeden...

...more to come three hours later, when Shapiro finally stood before the cameras. It turned out that Simpson had remained in one place ever since Nicole's funeral the day before -- not at his Brentwood mansion, where a stand-in had decoyed the media, but at the San Fernando Valley home of his friend Robert Kardashian.

Rocio (Maribel Verdu) is a coquettish imp who wastes no time in dragging Fernando into bed. Violeta (Ariadna Gil) is a lesbian who wears her hair short and likes tailored clothing. She has what is arguably the best scene in the film. During a carnival masquerade in the town, Violeta dresses in Fernando's uniform and the sisters dress Fernando as a French maid.
