...Rachata is a man who knows the subtle art of cutting, draping, pinning and pleating, and what it can do for a postpartum figure. When Jayne walked down the aisle of a New Zealand church three fittings and a 12-hour flight later, there was no trace of the frazzled new mother in the gorgeously gowned bride. Even better, her custom-made dress set her back just $480, about half the cost of having a similar dress made in New Zealand...
...last month. Though checkpoints in Grozny had been dismantled in the spring to show that peace was breaking out, more checkpoints were established around Chechen villages last month. And Russian soldiers have never stopped their practice of rounding up suspects in midnight raids. The detainees often disappear without a trace or are later found dead.

Mennonite Committee executive director Ron Mathies explains that his church's position is no less Christian than any other...
...mildly, in a minority; Bloom might be surprised at the number of adult readers who scour the texts for Jungian archetypes and trace the folkloric roots of hinkypunks, mischievous creatures who mislead travelers into bogs. "I think she's a terrific writer," says Maurice Sendak, author and illustrator of 80 children's books, who has read the first book. "And she's a ripper-offer, like me. She has taken from some of the best English literature and cooked up her own stew. It's brilliant, and I have every intention of reading the others; otherwise children I know will...
