...dead officer was found bent over his bootlaces, as if he had been tying them. On Thursday evening, a memorial service was held at the French Ambassador's residence. Two rows of 28 coffins, each draped with the French Tricolor, were lined up in the courtyard. Under a glow cast by Jeep headlights, the military trumpets sounded as the French chaplain sprinkled each coffin with holy water. At the end, the remaining soldiers sang La Chanson du Para, a favorite paratrooper hymn, whose melancholy lines floated slowly into the evening...

In his new one-man show, which opened last week on Broadway, he is portraying a man who helped define the image of the charming, demon-driven actor.

...crew members ran for the lifeboats, the flames ignited the cargo, which had begun to spill into the sea. For most of the day, the tanker burned, sending thick coils of black smoke rolling hundreds of feet into the air and bathing the area in an eerie orangish glow. Strong westerly winds blew a 75-mile-long cloud of choking smog toward shore, depositing thick black goo on houses and cars and coating newly shorn sheep with an oily film. Up to 25 miles inland, farmers reported an "oily rain" falling on their crops...
