Well, forget it. Dish comes first. Besides, there's no way that any reasonably tuned-in moviegoer can dismiss the subversive import of the dialogue between Allen, as an author who teaches a college writing course, and Farrow, as his wife, a magazine editor. She asks, "Are you ever attracted to other women?" He replies that his students "don't want an old man." He, who thinks his marriage might be saved by having children, admits, "I'm begging to have a baby that I don't even want." And when he falls for a wily coed (Juliette Lewis...

By rapidly widening the consumer market, the pact aims to spur capital investment across all three jurisdictions. This would be a striking...
...those vanities. This spring 470 coal miners arrived in Madrid after marching more than 300 miles from Leon in the north to protest layoffs. Villagers on the harsh Castillian plateau turned out to applaud and even sing to them; television stations filmed the blisters on their feet. "If they import Polish coal, our valley will die," said Eugenio Carpintero, 32, swigging wine from a leather pouch on a blustery afternoon. Outside the Guadarrama Hospital, nurses and patients cheered, "Viva los mineros...
