...contest the peacekeepers have little chance of winning. Many trauma-racked refugees, still wary of Serbian aggression, are sure to look to the K.L.A. for protection. The peace pact calls for the "demilitarization" of the K.L.A.--but not for its disarming. So the rebels will keep their small arms, the tools of choice for guerrilla fighters. Meanwhile, the U.N. will shoulder the heavy burden of setting up a Kosovar police force. Its first challenge will be to stamp out the K.L.A.'s revolutionary zeal. Albright labored to assure the 200,000 Serbs in Kosovo that the K.L.A. had pledged...
...falls. I hear the hearts of my own children sink whenever I am petty, selfish, small. I am not supposed to be small. The day my oldest boy Carl beat (trounced) me in one-on-one--at last, killed his dad!--I fumed like a Nero, stalked off, refused to shake his hand.

Following his small dramatic roles as Steve Rubell in the unsuccessful film 54 and as a repentant drug dealer in the unreleased Pete's Meteor, Myers felt ready to have another go at Austin.

A small radio antenna plugs into the PC's communications port and, with the help of Cye's Map-N-Zap software, beams instructions to the robot. Before heading out on an excursion, Cye must be placed on a "home base," an electric pad that doubles as a recharger and orientation point...
...grand tradition of Puff Daddy, Kid Rock is sitting at his kitchen table in his small house in Royal Oak, a Detroit suburb, doing what hip-hop moguls are supposed to do: field phone calls. O.K., perhaps it isn't that grand a tradition, and maybe Kid Rock isn't exactly a hip-hop mogul yet--but he's certainly making a run at it. His new album, Devil Without a Cause (Atlantic/Lava), is in the Billboard Top 10. Alongside the messages on his refrigerator door about his six-year-old son Junior's field trips (Kid Rock...
