After debating a house-party ordinance last month, they voted unanimously to send it back to the subcommittee to be rewritten to give greater recognition to parental authority. Joel Urice, a council member, calls the proposed ordinance "Orwellian" and says that while the town's intent is to stop binge drinking and unsupervised house parties, "this doesn't get at the problem.

He insists, however, that the excursions were serious endeavors with briefings by Korean officials and a trip to the demilitarized zone. As for elevating Kim's image...
Agents and directors look for unaffected kids with the gift of not minding being looked at. "I only respond to natural, and then what I do is enhance," says agent Meredith Fine, who represents Haley Joel Osment (an Oscar nominee for The Sixth Sense) and the Breslin siblings Spencer (The Cat in the Hat) and Abigail (Signs).
