	---- Movie Review---- Chicken Run Don't anticipate any promotional tie-ins with KFC for an animated comedy in which chickens, forced to lay eggs or get the chop, plot to escape a farm where they are penned in behind barbed wire in conditions that definitely flout the Geneva Convention.

	---- Art---- History of Islamic Pottery Vases, cups, food containers, fruit bowls, pottery tiles glazed with bright colors over a table in the middle of the living room - items all made of pottery, making fine decorative touches in my own house, and giving me a sense of pleasure whenever I use them. As a child I tried my hand at using clay to make cups and toys.
	British Museums Face Demands For Cultural Relics Some are the spoils of war. Others were stolen and smuggled away. Still others were given as presents, or even -- a rarity, this -- paid for.
