...game has great players, but it has suffered from a lack of interesting personalities and gripping rivalries. The Top 20 list is clogged with Spanish clay-court matadors and nondescript Europeans. Goran Ivanisevic, who won Wimbledon with a thrilling five-setter, was ranked 125th, but who wants to memorize 125 names? Names like Gustavo Kuerten...
...many times as he needs to. Last week Bill Clinton emerged from his self-imposed post-pardon-scandal exile.

I purchase a cassette from "Powell" at 125th and Fifth Avenue called "Classic Soul 2" for $5. Blithely bootleg oldies, this compilation of soul tunes is the bargain of the day. It's the essence of this new Harlem Renaissance: Faith, Joy, Beauty and Soul wrapped in global entrepreneurial vision. It's been said faith the size of a mustard seed can move mountains.
