...David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson cope with middle age in their X Files movie later this summer. They may suffer from the occasional creaking joints of Crystal Skull. (And, truth to tell, there was more applause here at the beginning of the screening than at the end.) But they'd be hard-pressed to inhabit the sleek, satisfying adventure that three septuagenarians and their pals dreamed up here. There's a moment in the film where Mutt sees Indy negotiate some really cool bit of action, and the kid can't help mouth a "Wow." That's the right response...
Doctors have clearly been worried for a while now that Sen. Edward Kennedy, 76, of Massachusetts might suffer a stroke. Last October, they operated on the carotid artery on the left side of Kennedy's neck to clear the plaque that was building up inside it. The concern: that some of that arterial plaque might break off and form a clot in the Senator's brain, interrupting the flow of blood to his cerebrum.

"The permanent siege that Telma Ortiz and her partner suffer 24 hours a day is unbearable," said her lawyer Fernando Garrido earlier this week. "We can't go along with the fact that Telma has to live her postpartum in hiding, in a hell like she is living now, just to avoid being photographed...
...Ortiz will be forced to pay the defense's legal expenses, and she's likely to suffer in other ways as well. "This will have a boomerang effect," adds Peñafiel. "She's going to get exactly what she didn't want, which is to become more famous." Perhaps anticipating that effect, Ortiz and her partner have already put in a request with the Red Cross to return them to jobs in Asia, far from the Spanish paparazzi. Or at least that is what the pink press is reporting...
