So while it may be chic to turn thumbs down on poor Tom, for once it might also be quite the decent thing...
...twosomes, a large jungle-motif dining area with waiters and waitresses in safari suits, and a plushy retreat opposite the bar-offer a wide-ranging mixture of French and American food.

Their action precipitated a panic. Lawyers for Frenkil and others, claiming only to represent "John Doe, Peter Poe and Richard Roe, et al.," petitioned the court to prevent publication of the document, which they felt would damage their clients. In response, Federal District Judge Roszel Thornsen steered a cautious middle course. He suppressed the grand jury's presentment and released a watered-down summary of his own. Then he expunged...
