Hill says that before Rohan, she had "dysfunctional" relationships. She tried to channel the pain of those experiences into her music. "It wasn't someone writing for me; it wasn't someone telling me what I felt," says Hill, who wrote and produced the songs on Miseducation. "It was exactly how I felt the moment I felt it." Her maverick vision hasn't been without controversy. Late last year a group of four musicians who worked on Miseducation filed a suit claiming they deserved additional songwriting credits.

Clinton carries upstairs to the residence the fat folder of policy questions and decision memos that accumulate in his In box every day, but the rest of his life is up there waiting for him. He channel surfs among news, sports and nonstop talk shows, thinks through the twisted case again and again, calls friends and supporters to gauge reaction to the day's events and, most important, checks in with his friends in the Senate...

"She shouldn't ask about fashion," Rivers continues. "She's a lovely girl, but this is a person who wears pirate outfits...
...Teletubbies all the time: A kid's dream. A parent's nightmare. But by year's end it will be a reality for the tiny fraction of Americans who have access to high-definition digital television (HDTV). PBS will use the new medium to bring viewers a channel with round-the-clock programming for young children. "Barney and Friends" and the ubiquitous "Teletubbies" will be part of the lineup when PBS Kids Channel launches September 1. It may eventually include some educational programming like nature shows, since great photography makes better use of the high-resolution technology than does purple...
