KERRY: Let me emphasize: I'll pre-empt where necessary. We are always entitled to do that under the Charter of the U.N., which gives the right of self-defense of a nation. We've always had a doctrine of pre-emption contained in first strike throughout the cold war. So I understand that. It's the extension of it by the Bush Administration to remove a person they don't like that contravenes that...
...could soon strike Earth, ruining what should be baseball's blithest month. Spring training is a time for hope, not dread; every team is tied for first, and each nonroster player can dream of starring in the majors. But in February, three weeks after President Bush made the war on steroids a priority in his State of the Union address, Attorney General John Ashcroft announced the indictments of four men--two executives of the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative (BALCO), track coach Remy Korchemny and Greg Anderson, a personal weight trainer whose clients include San Francisco Giants home-run king...

Sometime in the late 18th century, it seems, artists began to alter their collective self-image. They stopped considering themselves as Renaissance men and started to strike outsider poses as bohemians - and even buffoons, jesters, jugglers, acrobats and clowns. At least, that's the premise of The Grand Parade, Portrait of the Artist as Clown at the Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais (March 11-May 31). With 200 paintings, drawings, sculptures, film clips and installations, the show...
Michael Mann has yet to strike out and he has Tom Cruise and Mark Ruffalo for the cabbie-in-peril thriller Collateral. The reliable Johnny Depp also tries for a second consecutive Academy nod in J.M. Barrie’s Neverland, as the titular author of Peter Pan. And finally, Michael Moore’s Bush-bashing documentary Fahrenheit 9-11 will sparkle as the Winged Migration of 2004. “Kerry/Moore 2004” has a nice ring to it, don’t you think...
