...Gaza, compared to 4,000 approved products prior to June 2006. According to the Israeli journalist Amira Hass, Gazans still are denied many commodities (a policy in effect long before the December assault): building materials (including wood for windows and doors), electrical appliances (such as refrigerators and washing machines), spare parts for cars and machines, fabrics, threads, needles, candles, matches, mattresses, sheets, blankets, cutlery, crockery, cups, glasses, musical instruments, books, tea, coffee, sausages, semolina, chocolate, sesame seeds, nuts, milk products in large packages, most baking products, light bulbs, crayons, clothing, and shoes...
...Montreal Canadiens stuck Stanley in the trunk of a car and headed to a victory celebration. They got a flat, and flipped Stanley onto a snow bank so they could pull out the spare. After changing the tire, they drove off without the Cup. (They returned later that evening to find the Cup still on the side of the road.) Stanley has been punted, abandoned -and, of course, stolen.

Gottlieb, a biochemical sciences concentrator, will begin medical school at Johns Hopkins University, and Smith will take on a public-sector consulting job with IBM. They will live together in Baltimore...
...There was little surprise that the main Palme went to The White Ribbon, an austere and lacerating tale of collective brutality and guilt in a small German village two decades before Hitler took power. This is a pure art film, daunting and demanding, spare and unsparing, making no concession to the prevailing popular taste - except, perhaps, film-festival taste. It was also, as we two Cannes veterans attest, the finest work in the competition. Writer-director Michael Haneke, a personally austere gent who has won prizes here before, with The Piano Teacher (starring Huppert) and Caché, was finally forced...
