...Pixar use their infamously-proportioned doll in the first film). Also in the fray are Wayne Knight's villainous Al McWhiggen, a proprieter of a nearby toy store who dreams of selling Woody to a Japanese museum (why Japanese? Exhibit A of Pixar subversiveness); Jesse and Stinky Pete, the missing figures in "Woody's Roundup"; and, of course, Zurg, the Darth Vader of the cartoon world. It's mass chaos most of the time, but that's the fun of the Toy Story universe. Blink one eye and--ack! You have to watch it again...

...numbers add up," said Ohio Republican John Kasich, chairman of the House Budget Committee. Moreover, he asserted, they will continue to add up because of conservative assumptions used to create them. His Senate counterpart, New Mexico Republican Pete Domenici, pointed out that those estimates factor in two mild recessions sometime during the next 10 years and include assumptions that "do not contemplate the kind of growth that is actually going to occur."

They may not admit to it, even when pressed, but these hair-care-oriented men walk among Harvard's unkempt rabble every day. Pete Steciuk `03 is one example of these rare gems at Harvard. A regular hair fanatic, Steciuk changes or adds to his color about once a month, just to spice up his life. On the subject of blow drying, Steciuk admits that "ever since [he] was a little...

...McCain supported. When Stumpf withdrew his name, McCain called the Secretary at his office and screamed, "You are finished!" McCain and Dalton have barely spoken since. During a closed-door meeting of G.O.P. Senators to discuss the tobacco legislation that he was championing, McCain barked that New Mexico Senator Pete Domenici, who had prepared a chart outlining the costs of McCain's proposal, was a "chickens___." Other colleagues are the subject of his barracks humor when they are not around. In June 1998 the Arizonan got up at a Washington G.O.P. fund raiser and told a profoundly demeaning joke about...

...bought remake rights for Jane Fonda, then for Whoopi Goldberg (though the film wasn't made), then they asked him to direct Sister Act, First Wives Club, Runaway Bride and, he says, "anything with drag queens." But though he hopes to make a film soon in Florida, based on Pete Dexter's novel The Paperboy, Almodovar's roots are deep in the Iberian psyche. He has never filmed outside Spain. Indeed, he hadn't shot outside Madrid until he made All About My Mother, set mostly in Barcelona...
