Spokesman Chhime R. Chhoekyapa called the surgery "a simple, routine procedure."

The Nobel Peace Prize-winning Buddhist elder was hospitalized in New Delhi on Thursday. He had arrived earlier in the week for a checkup, his second in as many months, and aides said afterward that the 73-year-old had been cleared for foreign travel.

NEW YORK - The deadpan and depressed characters Bill Murray has specialized in portraying as an actor in recent years have always stood in contrast to the life-of-the-party guy he is in real life - whether on a golf course or shuttling people around downtown Stockholm in a golf cart, as he did last year.
