#3 This reminds me of the movie "Ruthless People", where a moron villain figures that after the big payoff, he and his girlfriend are off to Haiti.

#5 U.N. officials said they planned to announce the appointment Tuesday, but Clinton jumped the gun, issuing a statement Monday that he was honored to accept Ban's offer.
