HARPER'S WEEKLY REVIEW
January 7, 2003
North Korea warned that it is "not currently able to meet
its commitments under the Treaty on the Nonproliferation of
Nuclear Weapons" and said that this was the fault of the
United States.
South Korea's president-elect said that he
was skeptical about President Bush's policies on North
Korea, particularly the new notion of "tailored containment"
that was suggested this week. "Success or failure of a U.S.
policy toward North Korea isn't too big a deal to the
American people," he said. "But it is a life-or-death matter
for South Koreans."
resident George W. Bush, who spent much
of his holiday clearing brush down at the ranch in Crawford,
Texas, mentioned North Korea on his way to grab a
cheeseburger and said that Saddam Hussein still "hasn't
heard the message."
Referring to meetings with President
Jiang Zemin of China, Bush said that "right here in
Crawford, we had a dialogue where we both committed
ourselves to working in a way to convince Kim Jong Il that
it's not in his country's best interests to arm up with
nuclear weapons."
The resident later traveled to Fort Hood,
Texas, where he told some soldiers that Saddam Hussein
"holds the United Nations and the U.N. Security Council and
its resolutions in contempt. He really doesn't care about
the opinion of mankind."
It was reported that Condoleezza
Rice is sometimes teased by her colleagues in the White
House for speaking in complete sentences.
A new study found
that autism is on the rise.

Like Fine Wine
Elizabeth Taylor
Liz Taylor took her earthy act to the extreme when she was honored at the Kennedy Center last month along with James Earl Jones, Paul Simon, James Levine and Chita Rivera.
John Travolta paid tribute to the violet-eyed legend, saying how he dreamed about her as a young man, "and I dreamed you were naked." As the stiff D.C. crowd - including
resident and Laura Bush, Sen. Trent Lott, and National Security Adviser Condoleeza Rice - laughed, grandmother Taylor yelled, "I don't have any panties on tonight." The
crack didn't go over well, and it was edited out of the Dec. 27 CBS telecast of the event.

Mr. Blackwell's 'Worst Dressed of 2002'
Anna Nicole Smith
Fashion designer Mr. Blackwell named former Playboy Playmate Anna Nicole Smith on Tuesday as the worst dressed woman of 2002. She was followed closely by a bevy of pop singers including
Christina Aguilera and Shakira, actresses like Meg Ryan and Cameron Diaz, Britain's Princess Anne and Kelly Osbourne, the daughter of British rocker Ozzy Osbourne.
Mr. Blackwell said Smith topped his 43rd annual list because "Anna's fashion follies are the worst of the year ... don't bother with a new designer Anna, just hire a structural engineer!"
In second place on the Blackwell list was another star of a reality series, Kelly Osbourne. Mr. Blackwell described her as "A fright-wigged Baby Doll, stuck in a goth prom gown. Now
we know what happened to Ozzy's hand-me-downs!"
Named third was pop singer Shakira, whom, Mr. Blackwell described as "overwrought and underdressed .... somebody should tell her those are probably Madonna's old clothes!"
Film star Cameron Diaz nabbed fourth place with Mr. Blackwell opining that she "looks like she was dressed by a color-blind circus clown." Britain's Princess Anne wound up in fifth place
because: "Her Royal Dowager Drag is dreary, drab and dour."
In sixth place was "Interview with A Vampire" author Anne Rice whom Mr. Blackwell said "looks like a cross between Queen Victoria and the Vampire Lestat." He was not much nicer to designer
Donatella Versace whom he said "resembles a flash-fried Venus, stuck in a Miami Strip Mall" and needs to "toss the peroxide once and for all."
Actress Meg Ryan was eighth because Mr. Blackwell deemed her "a total fashion wreck" who "looks like a Swap-Meet Fashion Queen in Beverly Hills."
A pair of pop stars, Christina Aguilera and Pink, finished ninth and 10th respectively, Aguilera because "her barely-there bimbo bombs wouldn't cover a gnat" and Pink because "Out of the blue, pops Pink, and I'm seeing red."

Most Annoying People Of 2002
Martha Stewart
As Hollywood preps for its kudos crescendo, the Web site http://www.AmIAnnoying.com has gotten a jump on awards season.
Martha Stewart led the voting by 1.4 million visitors to top the site's list of Most Annoying people of 2002.
The nettlesome elite included a number of other talkshow hosts or regulars, including Ainsley Harriott, John Edward ("Crossing Over"), Sal the Stockbroker ("The Howard Stern Show"), Laura Schlessinger,
Britain's Chris Evans and Christopher Lowell. The Am I Annoying Web site itself clocked in at No. 15, just ahead of WWII Japanese dictator Hideki Tojo but behind medieval seer Nostradamus.
On the opposite end of the spectrum, teen actress Mischa Barton ("All My Children," "The Sixth Sense") led the Least Annoying list.
Behind Barton were several other actresses, including Holly Marie Combs, Mary-Louise Parker, Amber Benson, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Natalie Portman, Diane Lane and Donna Mills.

Hosting PBS Series 'Freedom'
Katie Couric
Katie Couric will be the host of a new series called "Freedom: A History of Us" which will focus on the people who worked to guarantee freedom in the United States.
Couric said her late husband really got her interested in U.S. history.
"He used to have wallpaper of the American presidents in his bedroom, you know?" she said "He was such a Civil War aficionado. He really was a scholar and knew about troop movements. He was so passionate about it, he was contagious, I think."
"One of the advantages is I grew up outside Washington, D.C., where there was just so many incredible opportunities to learn about history through the Smithsonian Museums, and of course the National Gallery."
Christopher Reeve is one of the executives of the series, which features voices of Julia Roberts, Paul Newman, Tom Hanks, Robin Williams, Jennifer Aniston and many more.

Guesting On 'Bernie Mac'
Wesley Snipes
Just in time for February sweeps, feature thesp Wesley Snipes will guest-star in an upcoming episode of Fox's "The Bernie Mac Show."
Snipes will play the boss of Bernie's wife Wanda (Kellita Smith). In the episode, titled "Bernie Mac Rope-a-Dope," Snipes' character gets into an argument with Bernie when all three meet up for a night on the town.
Bernie winds up embarrassing his wife, who later is forced to apologize to her boss. Snipes' character then suggests that he and Bernie settle things in the boxing ring.
"Bernie Mac" represents Snipes' first primetime series appearance since the early '90s, when the actor starred in the short-lived ABC actioner "H.E.L.P." He also guested on "Miami Vice" as a villain named Silk.
Snipes isn't the only stunt casting on "Bernie" next month. Comedian-magicians Penn & Teller will play themselves in an episode titled "Magic Jordan." That episode revolves around Bernie's nephew Jordan (Jeremy Suarez),
who develops an interest in magic, much to his uncle's chagrin.

Julia Child won't be cooking up a benefit for local public television station KCET.
A 90th birthday tribute to TV's most famous chef, scheduled for Sunday at the Four Seasons hotel, has been canceled, KCET announced Monday.
Child is still recuperating from Nov. 4 knee-replacement surgery, said Laurel Lambert, a KCET spokeswoman.

Hikes Admission 4 Percent
Disneyland
Walt Disney Co., the No. 1 theme park company, has raised the one-day admission price to its Disneyland and California Adventure theme parks by $2 to $47, a spokesman said on Tuesday, citing higher costs of new and coming attractions.
Disney, which also owns movie studios and TV networks, increases prices about once a year, said Disneyland spokesman John McClintock, who added that competitors were also raising prices.
The 4 percent increase took effect on Monday and matches one in March 2002.
Disney, which has targeted local residents to counter a drop-off in international tourism, also on Monday offered a two-for-one ticket to local residents -- one day at each park for the price of a single day at one park --- good through May 14.
Do the math - that's $94 for 2, and the parking takes it over $100 just to get in the freaking gate! Sure, the rides may be included, but when water (or Pepsi) is $6/bottle, it adds up fast.
I'm so old, I can remember Disneyland being a haven
for live musicians - they literally employed hundreds (with the reputation for hiring only the best) - and not only was every light bulb replaced daily, but the streets were steam cleaned nightly!

Deported from Cambodia
Gary Glitter
Former British glam rock star Gary Glitter, convicted of child pornography offences in Britain in 1999, has been deported from Cambodia after he was arrested in the country, the Foreign Office said on Tuesday.
Glitter, who had set up home last year in the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh -- a country with a reputation as a safe haven for child sex offenders -- was detained on December 26 and deported on December 28 after
spending two days in prison, the Foreign Office confirmed.
Glitter, whose real name is Paul Gadd, was flown to Thailand, according to UK media reports. His lawyers are understood to be challenging the deportation.
After the 58-year-old was detained, the decision to deport him was taken by the Cambodian authorities with no involvement from British officials, the Foreign Office said.
The 1970s pop icon caused a storm of controversy last May when he was found setting up home in Cambodia, whose notoriously lax judicial system and weak law enforcement have created its reputation as a safe haven for child sex offenders.
He left Cambodia at the end of May, and was widely believed to have gone to Vietnam, although this was never confirmed.
He turned up again in Phnom Penh late last year and stayed as a tourist in an unidentified guest house.

'Probably'
Luci the Bat
John and Patsy Ramsey's litigious lawyer, L. Lin Wood, is threatening to sue conservative gadfly Lucianne Goldberg for saying she believes the Ramseys killed their daughter JonBenet.
Appearing on C-Span's "Washington Journal," Goldberg told host Brian Lamb that the Ramseys "probably" killed JonBenet. Wood is threatening to sue Goldberg unless she retracts her statement.
But Goldberg - who noted that Wood is also suing Vanity Fair's Dominick Dunne for asserting that Gary Condit had Chandra Levy killed and dropped in the ocean - says she won't back down.
"The only thing I'd have left out is the word 'probably,' " she quipped.

Libya Names Consul
Tecca Zendik
Libya, which has been trying to thaw relations with Washington, has given a U.S. beauty contestant citizenship and named her as honorary consul to the United States.
The Libyan news agency Jana said on Tuesday Libya had named Tecca Zendik, a U.S. citizen who lives in the United States, to the post at an official ceremony in Tripoli on Sunday at which she was also granted citizenship and a Libyan passport.
Zendik went to Tripoli in November as the U.S. contestant in a beauty pageant, Miss Net World, whose winner -- British model Lucy Layton -- was chosen by votes via the Internet.
At Sunday's ceremony Zendik pledged to work for peace, telling Libyan officials that she and many Americans oppose wars and yearn for friendly links with other peoples, Jana said.

Sequel In The Works
'Anaconda'
Columbia Pictures' 1997 hit "Anaconda" may finally get a sequel.
Dwight Little ("Murder at 1600") is in negotiations to direct "Anaconda II," which will be developed by Columbia's mid-budget label Screen Gems.
The original picture starred Jennifer Lopez and Ice Cube as documentary makers terrorized in the rain forest by a giant snake. The film grossed more than $136 million worldwide.

Family's Pet For 33 Years
Pet Eel
A German family has kept a live eel in its bathtub for the last 33 years and even trained it to swim into a bucket when someone needs to wash.
"He's part of our family," said Hannelore Richter of Bochum in western Germany, whose husband Paul caught the eel on a fishing trip in 1969 and took it home for supper.
His children fell in love with the eel, refusing to let him kill and cook it, and since then it has lived in the bath, shared it with the children when they were small -- and has
even moved house with the family, German newspapers reported.
"It's a weird situation," zoologist Walter Gettmann told Reuters. "He has certainly lost the skills needed to survive in the wild. But if he is fed properly, he can survive in a tub."

Another Editor from Maxim
Playboy
Playboy magazine has stolen away another top editor from rival Maxim, four months after it lured away the former head of the growing pseudo-skin magazine.
On Tuesday, Playboy Enterprises Inc., the grand-daddy of adult entertainment publications, said Steven Russell, Maxim's co-executive editor, had been appointed as the magazine's deputy editor, second-in-command to editorial director James Kaminsky.
Kaminsky left his post as Maxim's executive editor in September to join the ranks of Playboy magazine.
Also on Tuesday, Playboy said Robert Love, the former managing editor at Wenner Media's music magazine Rolling Stone who was pushed out in June, was joining the title as editor-at-large.
Russell will start on Jan. 13 and Love on Jan. 20, 2003.
A spokeswoman for Playboy Enterprises told Reuters on Tuesday that Kaminsky is also looking for a managing editor, but no further details were provided.

In Memory
Jean Kerr
Jean Kerr, a playwright and author who wrote with self-deprecating humor about show business and suburbia and had a best-seller in "Please Don't Eat the Daisies," has died at age 80.
Kerr died Sunday in White Plains. The apparent cause was pneumonia, her son said.
Kerr wrote entertainingly about show business. She mused about what to say when having lunch with a prospective producer — order a drink so you look relaxed, but don't touch it lest he think you're an alcoholic. Anticipating negative reviews of her latest work, she wrote: "If I have to commit suicide, I have nothing but Gelusil." (That's an antacid.)
But she also had a gift for finding humor in the common anxieties of suburbia and married life. She cheerfully acknowledged doing most of her writing in the family car, parked several blocks away from the chaos of several children and pets.
Kerr collaborated with her husband, the late drama critic Walter Kerr, on several Broadway plays and wrote others on her own.
Her 1961 comedy, "Mary, Mary," about a divorced couple who ultimately reconcile, became one of the longest-running productions of the decade. It was performed on Broadway more than 1,500 times.
Butt Kerr is probably best known for "Please Don't Eat the Daisies," an eclectic compilation of her writings about everything from her pet dogs to the oddities of their house in Larchmont.
The book, published in 1957, was turned into a movie with Doris Day three years later and became a situation comedy that ran on NBC form 1965 to 1967.
She also wrote "The Snake Has All the Lines" (1960), "Penny Candy" (1970) and "How I Got to Be Perfect" (1978).
She and her husband made their Broadway writing debut in 1946 with "Song of Bernadette," a dramatization of the novel about a young Frenchwoman canonized after allegedly seeing visions of the Virgin Mary.
It was not a success, nor was her solo writing effort two years later, a comedy called "Jenny Kissed Me," about a priest who finds his household disrupted by the arrival of his housekeeper's niece.
But the couple's 1949 revue "Tough and Go" was praised by critics. The show included a sketch of "Hamlet" performed as a musical comedy.
Her husband died in 1996 at 83.
