...engaged to some girl he met at Harvard. You mean a Harvard guy is dating a Harvard girl, and they got engaged? Frankly, that’s more unrealistic than the polar bears, the Dharma initiative, and that freaky monster. Back with the other passengers, Ana Lucia barks at Sawyer. I like her; she’s feisty and scary as a polar bear. In turn, he’s all flirty, asking her if she’s married. This is one horny islander (with mighty impressive abs, I might add). The passengers (not to be confused with...

...stores to expose alleged wrongdoings, including repackaging old chicken with cosmetically enhancing barbecue sauce and falsifying expiration dates. In addition to disturbing footage, PrimeTime aired interviews with seven current and former Food Lion employees who gave firsthand accounts of the chain's unsanitary handling practices. Moreover, PrimeTime anchor Diane Sawyer noted that producers had collected similar horror stories from more than 60 other on-the-record sources. Food Lion filed suit against ABC even before the broadcast and now claims that the broadcast cost the company between $1.7 billion and $2.5 billion in lost sales and stock-price dips...

Sending five million military MRE meals sounded impressive until you realized there may be a million American refugees at this point. Does that mean we're only handing out five meals per person?

His smirk came back; he stumbled into jargon like SPRo, the nickname for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and said things that seemed patently out of touch, including the now-infamous remark that no one could have foreseen the levee breaking. His inability...

...innocence, 13 brings sexuality: early versions of the Little Red Riding Hood story were tales of seduction in which her cape was a symbol of menstruation. Shakespeare's Juliet was 13, unready for love perhaps but, by the standards of her age, more than ready for marriage. Tom Sawyer is thought to have been 13 when he got "engaged" to Becky Thatcher. It is an age of prodigy: Anne Frank received her diary as a present on her 13th birthday; Bobby Fischer was 13 when he became the youngest player ever to win the U.S. Junior Chess Championship--within...

...prison for 30 years.' I hope no one will believe anything Hasenfus says until he can speak freely." Hasenfus was permitted to meet briefly with his wife Sally Jean, who traveled to Nicaragua from Wisconsin. At week's end two coffins containing the bodies of Cooper and Sawyer were unceremoniously dumped outside the U.S. embassy by Nicaraguans just after an anti-American demonstration. Embassy staffers denounced the Sandinista action as "ghoulish." The bodies were later flown back...
