...special status" similar to that of Jews in Nazi-occupied Europe. All Muslims must observe a 4 p.m. to 6 a.m. curfew. Muslims are "not allowed to stay in the street, in restaurants and other public places." Muslims are forbidden to swim in the rivers, to fish or hunt, to use or drive motor vehicles, to be in groups of more than three, to use telecommunications facilities except for a post-office telephone, to sell real estate or exchange apartments without a special authorization. The order includes a list of 34 Muslim citizens of Celinac who are not allowed...
Love and War seems even more artificial when compared with Mad About You, the season's best new sitcom. Paul and Jamie (Paul Reiser and Helen Hunt) are Manhattan newlyweds with no cute eccentricities, no clashing political views, no comical disparities in social background. Their problems are the little ones that occur when even compatible people are tossed into the same house together for the first time.

"People should be tried only for criminal actions, not because they were members of the party nomenklatura." Another team lawyer, Andrei Makarov, puts it more succinctly: "We do not want to turn these hearings into a political show...
...their world. Was this how the wandering Asians felt more than 10,000 years ago when they crossed to Alaska and marched southward through the Americas, going where no man had ever gone? On today's fully occupied planet, there are few places left where indigenous peoples do not hunt and trap or where loggers and mining companies have not sent in teams of surveyors. The great forests east of the Ndoki River may be the earth's last Eden...
