...once divided is now strong. After weeks in which two women claimed to be Miss North Carolina, MISTY CLYMER, right, has been named the sole bearer of the title. Clymer had been battling REBEKAH REVELS, who won the state contest but resigned--she says under pressure--when her ex-boyfriend alleged he had topless pictures of her. After the sash passed to first runner-up Clymer, Revels sued to get the title back. Before a decision was made, both women went to Atlantic City, N.J., for prepageant activities, which apparently included many opportunities for frolicking on the beach. A federal...

...cross-country to destroy every copy of the poem, bringing in tow Helen's assistant Mona, a hippie-ish "witch," and Mona's eco-ranting boyfriend Oyster, the most comically egregious tagalong since that sourpuss hitchhiker picked up by Jack Nicholson in Five Easy Pieces. (Oyster describes Johnny Appleseed, who spread non-native plant life, as "a f______ biological terrorist.") All the while Carl struggles with his impulse to wipe out everybody in his path who annoys him. Because his path runs through barroom blowhards and rude librarians, to say nothing of Oyster, that's a lot of folks...

In June REBEKAH REVELS, bottom, won the state pageant and the honor of competing for Miss America.

Revels resigned, and the crown passed to first runner-up MISTY CLYMER, left. Revels, however, had a change of heart and sued the North Carolina...

...find herself again? It turns out there is no shortage of people who want to help create a carefree, well-centered version of Genelle--and an inspirational Sept. 11 tale for the rest of us: Victim miraculously lives, turns to God, finds true love (in July, she and longtime boyfriend Roger McMillan had a free "dream wedding" arranged by Bride's magazine and CBS's The Early Show, an event both then covered as news). But her story isn't so simple. People say Sept. 11 was a crucible for our nation, which may or may not be true...

...mobsters. It has been 16 months since the last new episode (a delay, says Chase, caused by cast illnesses and the long shooting schedule necessary to give the show its cinematic look). That's 16 nail-biting months since mobster Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini) had his daughter's ex-boyfriend killed; his wife Carmela (Edie Falco) began studying for her real estate license and worrying about her complicity in her husband's crimes; his psychiatrist, Dr. Melfi (Lorraine Bracco), was recovering from her rape; son Anthony Jr. (Robert Iler) was challenging Tony's parental authority; Mob captain Ralphie Cifaretto...
