...audience also gets some surprises from the back of the theatre, as cast members very unexpectedly pop out a chest nestled in the rear, to the gasps of the show’s younger onlookers...
Special forces were usually ahead of the tip of the spear: as U.S. troops pushed toward Baghdad, secret combat teams zipped into Iraq aboard specially outfitted MC-130 Combat Talon planes that used highways as landing strips, surprising the enemy at its rear. On the road to Tikrit, they fingered Iraqi vehicles fleeing the capital for destruction by M1 tanks.

There's a small degree of liability there." Mopar sells a dizzying array of auto accessories--from chrome grilles to rear spoilers--but steers clear of supersize rims. Its parent company will go only 3 in. bigger than what comes standard, which is why the dealers that are starting to display tricked-out "Moparized" cars will probably outfit them with non-Mopar wheels...
