Your article on the failure of several rockets to launch their payloads [SPACE, May 24] implied that the world's satellite makers must depend on Russian, Chinese and European rockets to get into orbit. Nowhere did you make note of the most reliable booster in the world today--the Lockheed-Martin Atlas launch vehicle. The Atlas has had 43 consecutive successful launches of commercial and government satellites. That is a fabulous record in this very challenging business. The U.S. looks a bit better when the bad news is mitigated by the good. LEE R. SCHERER, FORMER DIRECTOR Kennedy Space Center...
Hundreds of miles away, in Germany, Thaci wavered. "I'm skeptical," he told TIME. He had good reason. The deal crushes the K.L.A. and any immediate hopes for an independent Republic of Kosovo.

NATO hopes the K.L.A.'s fighting waiters and bus drivers will simply return to their jobs...

Shuttling back and forth between the present and a distinctly low-rent version of Los Angeles in 1937, a techno-nerd (Craig Bierko) must consider the possibility that he murdered his mentor-boss (Armin Mueller-Stahl) and doesn't remember doing so. While he creates an agreeably menacing atmosphere, Rusnak never makes us care particularly about anyone. One finds oneself praying for a wowing special-effects sequence. Or anything else that would jolt this movie out of its inconsequence...
