...terrific partnering with Jimmy Stewart in John Ford's Two Rode Together and as Jim Bowie in John Wayne's epic The Alamo. But, again proving his talent too restless to be confined to one character type, or one genre, Widmark played the idiot Dauphin in Otto Preminger's Saint Joan - a kind of sacred-fool version of Tommy...
...handful of the dead teenagers were black or Asian. More than half of all black Britons live in London, many in hardscrabble housing projects such as the Moorlands Estate in Brixton, south London, where Solomon Wilson, 23, and his friend Nathan Foster grew up. Wilson says he was "no saint" when younger, but he benefited from a happy home life. "I take my hat off to my mum," he says.

...sophomore Mike Hayes dropped their match 8-6, as did the all-freshman team of Aba Omodele Lucien and Alexei Chijoff-Evans.

...also positioning himself as a favorite in an expected showdown with former presidential candidate Ségolène Royal for the party's leadership later this year. Socialist-led tickets captured France's third-largest city, Toulouse, after 37 years of conservative domination. They also claimed Strasbourg, Saint-Etienne, Blois, Caen, Reims, Metz and Rouen from the right. Leftists were meanwhile returned to power in Lyon, Lille, Rennes, and Montpellier, taking 49.5% of the nation's popular vote versus 47.5% for the right. Sarkozy's governing conservative Union for a Popular Movement (UMP) averted near total collapse by narrowly...
