Olivia and I lounged in the grass in front of Lionel Hall, for hours before and after dinner. She dragged me, practically kicking and screaming, onto the T for the first time. Her family took me in as another daughter. They drove us to Salisbury Beach, where I shivered with cold and yelled about the value of southern Texas waters as she and her brothers happily swam, polar bear-like, around me. We rented "So I Married an Axe Murderer" more times than I care to admit, and would frighten tourist groups in the Yard by reciting (loudly...
...failed it. On March 5, FBI agents confronted Lee and extracted permission to search his computer. Three days later, Richardson fired Lee and assured everyone the worst was over. It was not. On March 28, he got the mind-blowing news: not only had Lee downloaded the legacy codes onto his unclassified computer, but he also later tried to delete them from his hard drive. And someone using Lee's password had already accessed the codes. Richardson briefed Clinton the next day, got approval to shut down the nuclear labs for two weeks and vowed to can staff members...
...former Mouseketeer, Britney Spears, can land a No. 1 CD, the time is probably just about right for Martin, a former member of the Latin teen group Menudo, to burst onto the national stage. At 27, he is already a major star in Latin America.

...crime would have been horrible enough. But coming just eight days after the Littleton massacre, it was the centerpiece of a fevered week of copycat incidents at schools across the continent. Authorities rounded up scores of kids for allegedly plotting to blow up their schools, sneaking guns onto campus or threatening to off their enemies. Some schools hired guards; others canceled classes altogether. There is no telling exactly how many of these threats were serious. But it's clear that Littleton, at the very least, has given troubled and misguided kids a new way to garner attention. "Most kids aren...
...Hiep) befriends a leprous poet; a pedicab driver idolizes a bitter whore; an American visitor (Harvey Keitel), who sired a child back in the war days, returns to search for his daughter. Writer-director Bui, who left Vietnam when he was two, returns to graft these daintily sentimental tales onto rapturous vistas, photogenic faces and a long history of colonial hurt. Alas, Three Seasons, a Sundance prizewinner, shows little more than Bui's fondness for visual and narrative cliches. A better director will have to make the definitive "post-Vietnam" Vietnam film...
