...nominated for an Oscar for his role as Count Laszlo de Almasy, in a statement. "His films deal with extreme aloneness and the redemptive power of love, even at the moment of death. I will remember him as a man who always wanted to get to the heart of the matter...
...A320 is a big plane - 130 passengers - too big to execute the infamous "Baghdad welcome," that heart-stopping corkscrew dive that characterized all my previous landings. The maneuver was designed to evade any terrorist attack by surface-to-air missiles, and executed to petrifying perfection by former South African air force pilots flying smaller, more nimble Fokker F-28 aircraft.

Those with very few other heart-disease risk...
...Breaking Up Is Hard to Do Thank you, Michael Grunwald, for offering a succinct and balanced discussion of why we should be wary of Kosovo's unilateral declaration of independence from Serbia [March 3]. U.S. recognition of Kosovo's secession broke my heart, not because I am of Serbian ancestry but because I am an American. Adherence to rule of law is what makes the U.S. great. Yet by recognizing Kosovo, America has turned a blind eye to the rule of law and has destabilized the globe. This is about Canada and the French-speaking Québécois...
