...also starting to gravitate around Giampaolo Maffini, chef at the Harbour Grill, tel: (852) 2996 8433?a deceptively bland name for an astonishing restaurant in the mid-range Harbour Plaza Hotel in Hung Hom. Hong Kong's chattering classes might never summon up the will to go to this nondescript district of tower blocks and train lines?more fool them, for Maffini's talent is a rare one. His soups (oyster with Pernod; cauliflower with caviar) are masterful and original; the racks of lamb are so good they defy description; and his duck with Savoy cabbage is simply brilliant...

At the bottom of a narrow winding staircase is a well-lit store painted in psychedelic colors, the very antithesis of the grimy Amsterdam "head shops" that peddle marijuana, cheap drug paraphernalia, a few legal uppers and rock-star T shirts. Here the products...
...April 3, Qusay arrived at Migdal's house with a group of relatives. The maid overheard them planning to travel in a convoy of old, nondescript cars to a rural area outside Tikrit. She tried to get out of making the trip but was told she knew too much. Two days later, the entourage drove north in 65 cars, staggered in sets of two or three so they would not be conspicuous.
