...that jockeying for political and economic advantage that has splintered the central-African alliance. Oil-rich Angola, under the leadership of Jose Eduardo dos Santos, has supported Kabila since they began fighting together to unseat Mobutu at the end of 1996. Namibia, in support of Angola, has sent a small force to support Kabila. Zimbabwe's leader, Robert Mugabe, has sent 10,000 soldiers to Kabila's assistance.

Though the ideas are great here (interview Quiet Riot at a concert for nudists), the execution isn't nearly as sharp as it is on Rock of Ages. Still...
...sleeves and his old blue overcoat, walked around the block and, coming back to the Court, stopped to listen to the picketers who gathered daily to protest abortion, some carrying signs that accused him of mass murder. He had respect and compassion for them. They never noticed him, the small lean bespectacled man with gray hair; his humility shielded him. Then he walked up the steps under the EQUAL JUSTICE UNDER LAW inscription, went in to his office and resumed reading the law, which was his work...
