Left to fend for themselves and hampered by the temporary absence of their relentless military commander Ratko Mladic, who was in the hospital reportedly being treated for gallstones, it was not until late in the week that the Bosnian Serb forces finally appeared to stiffen their defenses along a wide arc surrounding Banja Luka. By that time, however, the Croat-Muslim attack had already touched off an exodus of more than 85,000 Bosnian Serb refugees.

...Crimson (4-1, 0-0 Ivies) was relentless from the opening bell, rolling over the Golden Griffins 15-1 in the first frame.

Let's cease the failed policy of appeasing Beijing and re-establish full diplomatic relations with Taiwan, one of the most...
Paying to see Clueless is not really mandatory. You can learn most of the jokes by surfing the TV and newspaper reviews and get a hint of Silverstone's blithe luster by watching mtv's relentless promotions. Taking this Cliffs Notes route, moreover, saves you from sitting through several slow stretches of plot sludge. During these scenes, Clueless has the feel of some mild sitcom purring in a far corner of the living room. You don't watch it so much as notice it, from time to time, in a genial miasma...
