...autonomy -- but not independence -- for Kosovo. "The possibility of any agreement between the Serbs and the Albanians is very slight," says Anastasijevic. "Most ethnic Albanian parties won't even negotiate about anything short of independence, and Milosevic is exploiting that to maintain his own tough stand -- right now neither side has given up hope of achieving their objectives by force...
Leach does side with Rosemond on one point: Brazelton's affiliation with Pampers, which is pushing a supersize disposable diaper for children 35 lbs. or larger, stinks.

...razzle-dazzler has done it again--posthumously. Eleven years after he dropped dead of a heart attack at 60, Bob Fosse has two shows running side by side on Broadway.

And in the year in which the phrase divided government came to refer to a government divided from its people, says Brownback, that "is the biggest disconnect...
...maintain the deception. Hutchinson fashioned a compelling narrative from this too familiar tale. The obstruction, he alleged, began when Clinton learned that Lewinsky was to be subpoenaed in the Jones case; he drafted Vernon Jordan to help find her a job and get her back on Clinton's side; once that was under way, he approached Lewinsky with his plan to have her sign a false affidavit in the Jones case. As Hutchinson explained it, Jordan was recruited once more to find her a lawyer, hold her hand, get her out of town. But when it turned out that...
