...Clintonesque ability to connect with others. He can be famously detached, recalls Doron Cohen, his brother-in-law, who served under Barak in the Sayeret Matkal. The first time he sent Cohen off on a cross-border raid, Barak accompanied the infiltrators to the frontier, but, says Cohen, "Ehud wouldn't tell me one personal word. I understood this was business. There was no room for gestures." Yet when the forces returned safely, Barak rushed over to Cohen to hug him. "He's so targeted, so cool," says Cohen. "But after all, he's very human...
Military and political leaders probably wouldn't be agonizing over what planes to fly, and how high, if they could settle on an answer to the question of ground troops. The longer the air war drags on, the more frequently the ground issue pops up. Last week the alliance found itself in a new muddle as various capitals sent out contradictory messages. German Chancellor Gerhard Schroder called the use of ground troops "unthinkable" and pledged to block any alliance combat on land. From London came the opposite, a steady drumbeat of demands by the Blair government to start assembling...
...amazing thing about this scene is that fans can get so close. It's the equivalent of walking on the field at Yankee Stadium during batting practice and asking Derek Jeter if he wouldn't mind posing for a photo with your three kids.

In 1993, when he was only writing all 23 episodes of his one show, Picket Fences, he told TIME, "I don't plan to continue at this pace. I wouldn't recommend it for anyone who factors longevity into his lifetime plan." He probably thought he meant that. But even earlier, as a busy lawyer who had never written before, he used the time while waiting for his court cases to be called to write the 1987 Judd Nelson movie...
...country. Did this man really need three guns to go to the drugstore? Smokers are outcasts now in the U.S.; I would like to see the same thing happen to gun lovers and their firearms. It won't be that easy. Nice little signs in restaurants saying NO SHOOTING wouldn't exactly do it. But we should have a real goal for the 3rd millennium: a zero-tolerance campaign against violence, guns, cruelty and drugs. MARINA MASCETTI Genoa, Italy...
