...specialists from the U.S., Europe, Israel, Russia, even traditional enemy Greece. Yet hope dwindled for the estimated 35,000 people who may remain locked in the wreckage of Turkey's punishing earthquake. After the first three days, successful rescues grew more and more sporadic. Without water, in the cruel heat, few of the trapped can survive more than 72 hrs., no matter how strong the will to live. There might still be a miracle or two. But the hopelessness for the rest reverberated in the trembling voice of Prime Minister Bulent Ecevit as he acknowledged, "It is not possible...
...love, as the end product is a devoted but ultimately dull hagiopic. Berry is vivacious and hungry as Dandridge, and Brent Spiner is affecting as her dedicated manager; but a flat script and uninteresting narrative (rendered in flashback as Berry flips through a scrapbook) throw ice water on the heat its subject is supposed to project...

...pilot took evasive action, because the choppers weren?t carrying even defensive systems such as flares to distract heat-seeking missiles -- although it was only back at the base that we discovered how close we?d come to being hit. When I got back to the office, I learned that our stringer in Karachi had been taken to the area on a similar trip by the Pakistani military. So there was a reporter from TIME on the Pakistani side when we were fired on. As always, we?re covering both sides...
