...Steele's affidavit undermines Willey's testimony, it becomes just one more reason the White House may be wanting a trial and the Jones camp may be looking for a deal. At this point, some aides argue, Clinton has little more to lose; the damage to his reputation has been done, and if the jury rules against him, he can blame the poisonous atmosphere around Kenneth Starr's investigation. If he were to win, he could spin the victory into a vindication against all accusations against...
...pandemic of 1918 remains a mystery. It began with a relatively mild initial assault on March 4, when the first reported case occurred at Camp Funston, Kans. Within four months, the virus had traversed the globe. The flu sickened millions but killed relatively few, and in the tumult of World War I, the first wave seemed pretty mundane...

The part must have a dream for Chuck: as the last man on Earth after a biological weapon decimates the human race, he gets to chew a whole lot of scenery all by himself. Then he gets to save the planet. Sure, it wears a little thin when you see make-up streaks on the pale-faced night mutants. And the race-relations moral is ham-fisted. But if you're a Heston...
