...these are offered, unfortunately, in the new version, which stars Kinski, flat of voice, spirit and chest, as Irena. There is a fake anthropological prologue in which Hollywood's tribe of all-purpose primitives is seen tethering its maidens rather uncomfortably close to a black leopard's lair, thus establishing Irena's heritage, lost in the mists of the backlot. And there is Malcolm McDowell, quite persuasively feline, as her brother. In his human form he is something of a tomcat, which, of course, means he keeps turning into a big cat, with unfortunate results...
...document did not touch upon U.S. -Iran relations at all. Titled Israel: Foreign Intelligence and Security Services, the 47-page CIA study, issued in March 1979, offered tidbits about Israeli efforts to blackmail and wiretap U.S. Government employees. For example, Shin Beth, the Israeli counterespionage branch allegedly rigged a fake abortion case against a clerk at the U.S. consulate in Jerusalem in an unsuccessful effort to recruit him, apparently in the early '50s. There are accounts of efforts to bribe Marine guards, and in 1954 a hidden microphone planted by the Israelis was discovered in the U.S. Ambassador...
...Imelda, Manotoc had married Maria Imelda ("Imee") Marcos, 26, a law student at the University of the Philippines, on Dec. 4 in Arlington, Va.

Since then, the two families have been feuding like the Montagues and the Capulets...
...clandestine guerrilla "safe" houses in and around Guatemala City, most operated by the country's second largest guerrilla organization, the Revolutionary Organization of the People in Arms (ORPA). In the houses, the military discovered everything from quantities of arms to bomb factories to enterprises devoted to turning out fake police and military uniforms and even fake license plates. At one location the army also found the body of U.S. Businessman Clifford Bevens, 56, who was kidnaped in December 1980 and held for a multimillion-dollar ransom. The guerrillas shot Bevens when their hideout was surrounded by soldiers and police...
...year, we eased him in carefully, so as not to break him." Breaking Montana seemed a small danger to Assistant Coach Sam Wyche, a man who can speak of the relative gifts handed out to quarterbacks. He was a backup in the N.F.L. for nine years. "Montana made this fake against the Giants," says Wyche, referring to the first playoff victory over New York. "The linebacker was slackjawed. That's some thing you don't coach. You take credit after it's over, as if you did. A coach can improve technique but not instinct. I guess...
