Perhaps it was a pact with the devil or just impossibly advantageous genes, but MICHELLE PFEIFFER adamantly asserts that her enviable appearance owes nothing to plastic surgery. The clarification came after a comment made by PATRICIA HEATON, who happily cops to her own touch-ups. Heaton, the co-star of Everybody Loves Raymond, joked to David Letterman about an actress currently on the cover of a magazine who said she was afraid of Botox, a comment Heaton said amused her because she had spoken to that actress's plastic surgeon.

Though still a relatively small player in the fiercely competitive Web-hosting business, AIT is faring better than a lot of its bigger, cash-strapped rivals such as Exodus and Digex.

...have been a good one - if it had shown the nuns, themselves the victims of a cruel, cloistered mind-set, as something more than horror-film sisters of Satan. (One literally carries a pitchfork.) Or is it to much to ask a committed filmmaker to offer sympathy for the devil? Is it possible, for that matter, to provide a lucid, nuanced portrait of children in distress? Yes, says Christophe Ruggia's Les Diables, about two abandoned kids - Joseph (Vincent Rottiers) and his autistic sister Chloé (Adèle Haenell) - searching for their home. Joseph is Chloé's protector...
