From the dispute resolution comes an agreement, wherein a confidentiality clause could possibly exist.

‘Hogan’s Heroes’ The Sixth and Final Season TIDE FORECAST FOR TODAY IN SANTA MONICA This four disc-offering contains all 24 of the closing episodes of the Allied hijinks disrupting the Nazi war effort through POW camp Stalag 13. Starring Bob Crane and Richard Dawson, the series was created by the same man who launched Burt Reynolds in “The Longest Yard” and won an Oscar for “The Godfather” and “Million Dollar Baby,” producer Al Ruddy. (Paramount) Sergio Leone Anthology An eight-disc box set from the visionary Italian director whose “spaghetti westerns” reinvented the genre. Clint Eastwood is the man with no name in “A Fistful of Dollars,” “For a Few Dollars More,” and “The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly.” James Coburn stars with Rod Steiger in “Duck, You Sucker.” Leone adapts from Kurosawa’s Yojimbo to create his own style of westerns. Unforgettable co-stars include Eli Wallach, Lee Van Cleef, and Gian Maria Volante. A colorful story booklet, re-stored scenes, analysis of the distinctive soundtracks, documentaries on Leone, a poster gallery, and cast recollections including Eastwood are included. (MGM) ‘Rio Bravo’ Special Edition When it comes to westerns, John Wayne is more closely associated with director John Ford, but one of The Duke’s very best efforts comes in this collaboration with Howard Hawks. As headstrong Sheriff Chance, Wayne is asked to defend a small town against an outlaw gang and its hired killers. Time and again he is saved by seemingly trivial friends portrayed by Dean Martin, Ricky Nelson, Walter Brennan, and Angie Dickinson. Richly restored, the two-disc collector’s edition offers a unique bonus of an assortment of lobby cards as well as a feature on Old Tucson, site of many westerns. (Warner Bros.) ‘Trading Places’ Feeling Good Collection Originally conceived as a vehicle for Richard Pryor and Gene Wilder, Eddie Murphy and Dan Akroyd are brilliant as pawns in a reversal of fortune scheme cooked up by some wealthy brothers (Ralph Bellamy and Don Ameche). A bounty of extras include a making-of piece, deleted scenes, trivia pop-ups, costume design stories, a commodity lesson from the pros, and rare cast interviews unseen for 20 years. (Paramount) ‘Seinfeld’ Season Eight The merriment from this zany New York quartet rolls on with this four-disc, 22 episode offering. Popular episodes like “The Muffin Tops” and “Yada Yada” are sup- ported by extensive bonus material including all-new cast interviews, fact tracks, and bloopers. (Sony) ‘The Civil War’ A vast and detailed six-disc collection that uses photos, re-enactments, newly discovered documents and rare diary entries combined with interviews of leading scholars and historians to thoroughly explore the War Between the States. Over ten hours of compelling programming, the set also includes a 24- page companion guide. (A&E) ‘Roots’ 30th Anniversary Based on Alex Haley’s best-selling novel following the lives of several generations of a slave family, the most popular mini-series of all time arrives on a four-disc set. Bonus materials include cast recollections, a documentary with all-new material, as well as the Roots’ family tree information. (Warner Bros.)

OLYMPIC HIGH SCHOOL The aftermath of a gruesome drunk driving wreck is pro- jected onto the wall of a classroom, images of a blood-stained Ocean Avenue and the remains of a young man draw gasps from the audience. Many of the Olympic High School stu- dents sitting through a PowerPoint pres- entation on the dangers of drinking and driving avert their eyes from the crash scene, one that occurred years ago, involv- ing two life-long friends who had made a fatal mistake — leaving a party drunk and getting behind the wheel of a car. “OK, that’s enough,” said one uneasy female student, echoing the sentiments of several of her peers.

The judge sought clar- ification. "Are you marrying a woman with six children?" "No," said Lackey, "I be concubining." All six women are due during August, September or October.
