...each morning to write her column and by 9 was at a desk at Universal City Studios writing TV scripts. Bombeck never quite learned to love speaking show biz-"That line doesn't work for me, sweetie" and "Trust me"-and Maggie sank without a trace after eight episodes. The lines were funny but somehow the show wasn't. One critic suggested that what was needed was Bombeck herself in front of the camera...
...most unusual company that will appear at the festival all summer is the Théâtre du Soleil (Theater of the Sun) from France.

Relatives quickly identified the shackled man in the photo as Majid Abu-Gumaa, one of the four dead Palestinians. Only after the New York Times published an account...
