...denies he has any bank deposits abroad and insists that his wealth amounts to just 46.9 acres of land, plus $2.4 million in savings, and he went on television on Friday to tell the nation he has done nothing wrong. His lawyers informed TIME that he intended to file suit for "false" charges that "defamed and humiliated" him. But an avid public savored details confirming suspicions of corruption and private profiteering that have swirled around the Suhartos for decades. On Friday, protesters demanding the former President be put on trial clashed with police. Attorney General Andi Muhammad Ghalib, who oversees...
...potential hole in Curry's case is that he acknowledges in his suit that he used his expense account for "adult entertainment" with a client. That, suggests attorney Smith, may abet Morgan Stanley's argument that Curry abused his expense privileges.

...chances are you'll see a 26-year-old Brit with a long neck and a big, bright smile. N.Y.C.B. soloist Christopher Wheeldon is engaging and reliable, and he knows how to make the most of a Robbins role.

On Memorial Day, several dozen members of my extended family gather at a park near my rural hometown in upstate New York to eat barbecued chicken and deviled eggs. Afterward we play softball while my Uncle Harvey limbers up his lawn chair. But for us the best thing about the holiday...
...N.R.A.'s downhill slide went last week, much as it has gone for months. City after city--nine, with more expected--has filed suit against the firearms industry seeking damages for gun mayhem. Last month, after pouring $3.7 million into the effort, the lobby lost a major battle on a Missouri referendum over allowing citizens to carry concealed weapons. The Littleton tragedy then exposed a rift between the N.R.A. and gunmakers, who were willing to support Clinton proposals like raising the minimum age for buying a gun to 21. After that, the N.R.A. found itself embarrassed when its point...
