...before coming to the White House. "Look, Bibi," said Clinton firmly. "You meet with Falwell [because] you think I am snubbing you. I could make the argument that you are gigging me." The television evangelist, who is anathema to Clinton, has distributed political videotapes that conspiratorially--and unconvincingly--hint, among other things, at the former Governor's complicity in an Arkansas killing. Moreover, Netanyahu asked Falwell and his conservative supporters to use their influence in Congress to lobby against Administration pressure on Israel to hand over West Bank land to the Palestinians. But the President was in a magnanimous mood...
These are not the first disclosures to hint at an industry campaign to dominate the, ahem, younger-adult market. But the 81 internal documents from R.J. Reynolds, released by Democratic Representative Henry Waxman of California, are by far the most unflinching public view of a company determined to get those kids. In a 1975 memo, company official J.W. Hind urged R.J.R., maker of Camel, Winston and Salem, to "increase its share penetration among the 14-24 age group."

"Ridiculous," "hopeless," "nonsense," on the one hand; "doubtless," "obvious," "unquestionable," on the other, will have the same effects. A hint of nostalgic, antiacademic languor at this stage as well may match the grader's own mood: "It seems more than obvious to one entangled in the petty quibbles of contemporary Medievalists--at times, indeed, approaching the ludcrous--that smile as we may at its follies, or denounce its barbarities...
...thinking about seeing this movie, think again. Your time would be better spent digging into the hefty Allen catalogue; he's addressed every theme and genre that Harry touches upon better in the past: Want romantic comedy with a hint of pathos? Try Annie Hall or Manhattan. Existentialist dilemmas mixed with murder? Shadows and Fog or Manhattan Murder Mystery should keep you busy. Science fiction meets wacky social satire? Rent Sleeper. Dead-on, perfect drama? Crimes and Misdemeanors and Husbands and Wives are a sure shot. Allen's even made better films in Harry's own kind-of-autobiographical...
