A possible National Weather Service cover-up revolving hurricane projections.

American's will live in fear of  these names:   Allison, Barry, Chantal,
Dean, Erin, Felix, Gabrielle, Humberto, Iris, Jerry, Karen, Luis, Marilyn,
Noel, Opal, Pablo, Roxanne, Sebastien, Tanya, Van, and Wendy.   The
Hurricane season this year is a worry.  A recent meeting of top forecasters
was so damn scary that the NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE (NWS) spiked most of the
information that was discussed.  The DRUDGE REPORT was slipped a
meeting-summary,  from a reader of the REPORT,  which outlines the high
level of concern.  The forecasting community is drawing a correlation
between the freak warm water temperatures , already 86 degrees in the surf
off of Miami Beach, Florida, the high levels of ultraviolet sun rays that
are currently hitting the western hemisphere and the upcoming potential
hurricane storm season.

The NWS has come clean concerning the high levels of ultraviolet rays that
are currently blasting America.  Late last week the NWS issued their  first
ever 'ultraviolet' warning.  The warning plainly states that 'high levels of
ultraviolet rays' are been received in the cities of Albuquerque, Phoenix,
Miami, Tampa, Jacksonville, Mobile, Houston, Los Angeles and Jackson.  Why
has the NWS revealed their ultraviolet concerns and not their hurricane
scenarios?  Why isn't the mass media telling us about the hurricane that is
projected to set a record low barometric pressure and how he/her will
finally find its way to the mid-Atlantic region.  In fact, several level
five hurricanes, the strongest natural force known to man, are projected to
strike land.  The leading  newspaper in Charleston, South Carolina fronted
an a story Friday revealing the mass-exodus of insurance companies who issue
hurricane related  insurance.  The insurance folks have apparently seen the
predictions and  are bolting.

Atlantic City has just started to celebrate the 125th  summer with a
boardwalk.  They may get an uninvited guest, Felix the hurricane.

The American themed movie bows in Japan first.

UNIVERSAL CITY, CA (DR)--UNIVERSAL's summer hope,   APOLLO 13,   will open
for business first in Japan.   The Ron Howard film staring Tom Hanks,
follows the events surrounding  the Apollo 13 mission and is set to open
stateside in late June.  Why the world premiere run in Japan?  We asked a
UNIVERSAL spokeman what could possibly be the reasoning into opening such an
American themed movie overseas first and the response was, "Frankly. I don't
know myself!"  Is UNIVERSAL's  management bowing to its Japanese owners for
the last time? **MCA/UNIVERSAL is on the verge of a sale to Seagrams of
Canada**   Has the Japanese market started to overtake the American
consumer?  Just what is going on here?  The soundtrack to  APOLLO 13 is said
to be a charmer.  Music-man James Horner has recruited singer Annie Lennox
to provide the 'caught-in-outer-space-with-no-way-home' tension pieces.
Horner uses Lennox's  voice as an instrument that whispers and howls for
dramatic effect.

The new Marilyn Monroe stamp causes a commotion.

HOLLYWOOD (DR)--The US POSTAL SERVICE is promising every American a date
with Marilyn Monroe.  The Marilyn postage stamp is set to hit the street
June 1st.  The stamp will be unveiled at UNIVERSAL STUDIOS HOLLYWOOD this
week with full-blown media coverage.

Anthony Hopkins looking  nothing like Nixon creates a crisis for Oliver Stone.

SANTA MONICA, CA (DR)--It seems as though Oliver Stone is having trouble
making Sir Anthony Hopkins look like Richard Nixon.  A chatty stage hand
could not wait to tell the DRUDGE REPORT about the 'pounds of putty' needed
to make Hopkins' face look even remotely like Nixon's.  Oliver Stone shipped
a misleading 3 minute slice of his new film NIXON to the CANNES FILM
FESTIVAL this weekend in an effort to drum up excitement and pre-sales.  Our
stage hand claims that the 'sneak' did not show more than  15 seconds of
Hopkins, most of that in hyperactive cuts, for fear that the lack of
resemblance would leak out to the hungry media machine.   The visions of
Hopkins running around with layers of putty on his face  trying  seriously
to be Richard Nixon,  in front of a neurotic Stone,  is our clip of the week!

Soon to be Campaign manager for Bob Dole hits the showers

"I'm tired of it, I just don't want to go through it any more, " said
republican strategist Ed Rollins.  The word was spreading like wild fire
late Sunday that Rollins is out as manager of the Dole Presidential
Campaign.  Did Dole ask him to leave after his recent comments about the
'Hymie boys' in congress, which outraged a  broad-base of Dole's Jewish
support?  Of course he did.  One thing is curtain,  Clinton's James Carville
will miss the sport of bucking horns with Rollins!  This withdrawal lowers
the Campaign '96 heat dramatically.  Up creeps Buchanan?

Wood Allen's new film MIGHTY APHRODITE gets a September release date.  Allen
directed, wrote, produced and stars in a story that follows a sportswriter
and his girlfriend who win money at the racetrack only to find themselves
involved with the Mafia...C-SPAN went wild over the weekend by airing
Camille Paglia at YALE.  Viewers were stunned when Paglia roared, 'I love
pornography- it should be celebrated because it increases our terrific
animal side!' She also stated that she loves prostitutes, 'they are the
ultimate symbol of womanhood.' She finds most Americans 'cut off at the
neck,' when it comes to their sexuality.  C-SPAN turns degenerate...William
Hurt is said to be a knock-out in the new Franco Zeffirelli film JANE
EYRE...Jay Leno now has literally double the audience of David Letterman in
Los Angeles' latest rolling  A.C. Nielsen TV averages.  Jenny Jones has
pulled ahead of Letterman in New York,  creating a slight embarrassment,  we
suspect...KIDS, the DISNEY film about teen-age sexual addiction, looses in
Cannes...
WARNER BROTHERS has placed a BATMAN FOREVER billboard on the famed
Sunset-strip that will send out a low powered radio signal which will
continually play the movie's soundtrack...The REPORT can not wait for the
planned Connie Chung-Barbara Walters' interview which is set for any moment
now on ABC...
