Russia fights for pipeline deal
Article Abstract:
The Azerbaijan International Operating Co (AIOC), a consortium of leading international oil companies, is likely to use two pipelines to transport oil from extensive reserves in the Caspian Sea off Azerbaijan. This will be a compromise solution aimed at reducing tension which has surrounded the control of Azerbaijan's oil reserves. Russia has been seeking an agreement for the oil to be transported over its territory, bringing in valuable tariffs, while the consortium has also been under pressure to include a southern route.

Small town boy makes good
Article Abstract:
The Annual Academy Awards ceremony is usually presented by a famous actor, but in 1995 will be presented by television personality David Letterman. He has attracted considerable interest over recent years with his quirky and less than reverential approach to events of this kind, and is known not to treat famous actors with the respect to which they are accustomed. His approach to the Oscars ceremony will certainly be different from that of previous years, but his zany sense of humour may well prove very popular.
