Tennessee Williams is a name to conjure with in the American theater. Deeply conflicted by his homosexuality as a young man, his works reflect the cry of the underdog. He was notably the victim of a 1979 gay-bashing in Key West, when the homophobic newspaper ads of a Baptist minister sparked violence in that rather tolerant community.

Forty minutes west of Manhattan, in a broad, historic jumble of city and country, Zygi Wilf made his millions. And millions more.

He speaks softly as he makes his way into Marino's, an inconspicuous nook that has served him broiled flounder for 40 years. The black-rimmed sunglasses are off, the smile is easy, the customers his chorus.

The phone rings several times a day at Dr. Zehra Attari's west Oakland office.

Most callers are the parents of the missing San Jose physician's young patients, seeking a referral for their children's sore throats and colds in Attari's absence.

Other times, there is silence for a few seconds and then someone hangs up.

These are the days we should be pulling back the curtain and giving the public a good look inside.

We should tell them, with banner headlines, about possible consolidation, mergers and newspaper swaps.

We should tell them that large investors are putting the squeeze on Knight Ridder (parent company of The Sun News) in an unprecedented fashion and that might lead to a sale or breakup...

Several inter-linked Israeli policies are reducing the possibility of reaching a final status agreement on Jerusalem, and demonstrate a clear Israeli intention to turn the annexation of East Jerusalem into a concrete fact:

The 14-year-long Executive Life debacle reached a climax of sorts this week when a federal judge decreed that a French company must pay $190 million, plus interest, for its peripheral role in the clandestine purchase of the defunct California insurance company and its fat portfolio of junk bonds by a bank associated with the French government.
