Farrakhan has repeatedly compared the march to a Washington rally being planned by Promise Keepers, a Christian men's organization and the fastest-growing movement in U.S. history. TIME's Richard Ostling reports that Promise Keepers has postponed its event till after the 1996 elections to avoid any political implications. "Promise Keepers is radically different from the Farrakahan movement. Both are religiously-based movements advocating for-men-only meeting strategy, and both target men's responsibility for U.S. family disintegration. But Promise Keepers shuns Farrakhan-style politics. Given its track record, there's little doubt that it has the ability...

("Bless me, Father," he confesses, "for I have killed quite a few men.") Salma Hayek, a Tex-Mex houri with soulful eyes and bosoms till Tuesday, is the sex interest. And Living in Oblivion's Buscemi drops by to give Desperado the Indie Seal of Approval...
...federal appeals court ruled that TV stations can no longer air steamy movies or racy talk shows as early as 8 p.m. Instead, sexually suggestive or explicit shows will have to wait till 10 p.m., when the kids presumably are asleep. "It is fanciful to believe that the vast majority of parents who wish to shield their children from indecent material can effectively do so without meaningful restrictions on the airing of broadcast indecency," the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia said. Viewers probably won't notice any difference. The ruling doesn't apply to the cable...
