...have opted to stay in Washington for the holiday. The Clintons traditionally went to midnight mass at the Washington National Cathedral and woke up in the White House on Christmas morning before heading south for vacation. President Reagan also remained in Washington over Christmas - reportedly so members of the Secret Service could be near their families - although Reagan didn't venture out to a local church service...
...flaunted by feng shui "master" Tony Chan Chun-chuen - who also claimed to be her lover - and stipulated that everything was to be left to him. It emerged in court that Chan had told Wang to bury large amounts of cash and precious stones at up to 80 secret sites around Hong Kong, in supposedly propitious feng shui rituals, and that Wang had paid him at least $250 million for this and similar pieces of advice.

Two years ago, the U.S. intelligence community declared that Iran had, in 2003, halted its secret push to build nuclear weapons. But last weekend a document, purportedly from inside Tehran's nuclear program, surfaced in a London newspaper suggesting that Iran has been busy developing the sophisticated devices necessary to trigger a nuclear explosion.
