...outfits, the collection seemed meager (Lagerfeld produced 84). Perhaps Galliano is simply a rigorous editor, but the kind of exhilarating riffs that Saint Laurent and Lagerfeld can spin out--six or eight variations on a theme--were missing.

Using market-research surveys, the Army's 4th Psychological Operations Group divided Haiti's population into 20 target groups and bombarded them with hundreds of thousands of pro-Aristide leaflets appealing to their particular affinities. Before U.S. intervention, the CIA made...
