Fans also got a long look at the shifting inkblots on the mask of Rorschach (Jackie Earle Haley), the unveiling of the flying Owl Ship, a 1950s photo shoot of the fresh-faced superheroes and a very realistic-looking old Nixon. Snyder, who is currently wrestling with a three-hour version of the movie, said, "We had to cut out some bits that were more actiony" to keep Watchmen from running closer to five hours...
...overlooked during the past two years by trend watchers who were more interested in the way they dressed and the Seattle scene they came from. Style mavens fixed upon the thrift-shop wardrobe of flannel shirts and torn corduroy jackets, dubbing it the grunge look. For a fashion shoot, Vanity Fair dressed Manhattan socialites and celebrities in flannel and denim. All this exploitation made the term grunge deeply unfashionable among American youth, but bands like Pearl Jam have shaken off the label, becoming better known for their music than their baggy shorts...
...hidden camera to record man-in-the-street reaction to Kirk's glowing wine-red suit or Spock's white robe and ear- covering headband.

''It is easier to destroy the space-based components of a strategic defense system,'' says former Secretary of Defense Harold Brown, ''than it is to destroy the ballistic missiles...
...other hand, argued that the U.S. cannot afford to hope that the Soviets will in effect say ''uncle.'' Nitze stressed, as he has on earlier occasions, that the U.S. should not deploy SDI unless it is ''survivable.'' It cannot be so vulnerable that the Soviets would be tempted to shoot it down. And it must be ''cost-effective at the margin.'' This means that once SDI is deployed, it must not be cheaper for the Soviets to add new offensive weapons than it is for the U.S. to add new defenses to stop them. This standard has met some resistance...
