A papal resignation last took place in 1294 - when Celestine V stepped down to avert a potential schism in the Church - and it is permissible under Church law if the Pontiff is no longer capable of carrying out his duties. John Paul's biographer, Giancarlo Zizola, says the gathering of the Cardinals would be the ideal occasion for the Pope to surprise the world with the announcement of his retirement. But he doubts it will happen: "There's a paradox," he says. "If the Pope has the capacity to make such a decision, it means...

Steve Marinker, Heinz spokesman, on commemorative Golden Jubilee baked beans "In our plan there are no dreams, just cost reductions.

...dwelling creature. Hannibal, adapted by David Mamet and Steven Zaillian, fiddles more with its source and reworks--improves upon--that novel's ending. Director Ridley Scott is nicely attuned to Harris' depiction of evil, of the strength and seduction in depravity. Each gargoyle gets his due: greedy detective Pazzi (Giancarlo Giannini), the venal official Krendler (Ray Liotta). Even Mason Verger, the pedophile with the skinless face (Gary Oldman, under a layer of Toussaud wax), brings wit to his lurid vengefulness. All the actors do expert turns.
