...drop to almost nothing on Nov. 3. That brush with oblivion he blames in part on the fact that his position on the Judiciary Committee required him to second very publicly his party's pro-impeachment line. Two other G.O.P. members who could vote with the Democrats are Mary Bono of California and Lindsey Graham, a conservative South Carolinian who has said from the start he would not impeach the President for merely lying in the Paula Jones deposition. But even wavering Republicans may decide they don't really need to switch sides anyway. Since any articles of impeachment approved...
Gingrich was never quite able to change his ways. The late Sonny Bono figured it out early, when he was elected as a Congressman from Palm Springs, Calif., as part of Gingrich's freshman class. Gingrich was marching from news conferences to TV studios with a scrum of aides and photographers in tow. Bono approached with a word of advice. "You're a celebrity now," he told Newt.

...stars have lost their shine. Gabrielle V. Novacek '99 has followed U2 around the world, attending concerts all over Europe. "I still worship Bono.

Employees are allowed to donate public relations work to their favorite charities--on company time. Over the past year, the firm has donated pro bono p.r. expertise to eight charities, says managing partner Charles Russell. In 10 years of business, only one person has left for another company, he says. "The company cares about what is important to me personally," says accounts supervisor Meghan Dougherty, 32, a six-year employee. Dougherty has donated more than...
...Luminous Times (Hold On To Love)." Other songs are brooding ("Love Comes Tumbling," "Endless Deep") or simply happy ("Hallelujah Here She Comes"). Only the covers are overly weak; their version of "Everlasting Love" seems a bit too close to Gloria Estefan's jolly remake, and on "Unchained Melody," Bono strains his voice to hit the high notes, which lessens the beauty of the song. Probably for only those diehard U2 fans, the B-sides CD is nevertheless an excellent addition to any record collection...
