Since Washington has eased its trade embargo against Cuba by allowing cultural events, ordinance foes like Ohanian attorney Bruce Rogow say Miami is in violation of federal law.

But now comes the part that romance readers love: into Roberts' house and life walked a 6-ft. 7-in. carpenter named Bruce Wilder. They were married two years later and have lived, so far, happily ever after. He has made substantial repairs and additions to the original house and also runs the Turn the Page bookstore in nearby Boonsboro, which boasts a collection of the entire Roberts canon and has become a mecca to her fans, some of whom call themselves (uh-oh) Noraholics...
...love it. I haven't been featured yet, but my voice was in "He Got Game" and I just did some work for Bruce Willis' upcoming film "The Kid." I've also done an episode of "The Hughley's" and "Arli$$." The problem is that I always play myself. I want to play somebody else...
