...cause. In 1998, when Obuchi was having trouble holding together a fragile multi-party coalition, Nonaka approached an arch-enemy, Ichiro Ozawa, whose defection from the LDP in 1993 ushered the party out of power for the only time since its inception in 1955. Nonaka had called Ozawa a "devil" for that insult. But he went to Ozawa, hat in hand, and persuaded him to rejoin Obuchi's coalition. Once the relationship was cemented, he made sure Ozawa and his policy measures were all but ignored...
...remove their silver spoons just long enough to play the games. This year's team has fought its way back from multiple injuries (Carlos Boozer's broken foot, Jason Williams' badly sprained ankle), several crushing defeats (Carolina, Maryland, Stanford) and a mid-season slump at the line. This Blue Devil team has very little depth from the bench and is markedly smaller than most teams they play. Does that sound like a stacked deck...
...This year's skits included "Chocolat Tiger, Hidden Bon-Bon" with the octogenarian "Chocolat" producer David Brown hamming it as Brown Young Fat; a revised "Chocolat" with director Roland Joffe ("The Killing Fields" and MTV's "Undressed") as an outlandish Satan (wearing toy-store $3 devil horns made out of crimson satin) seducing Marisa Tomei and Christina Applegate.

...That's it? No wonder adolescents find the dictionary such a poor source of sex education. It's a small word, but how ungenerous can Mr. Webster be? Isn't sex something unbelievably profound: the very issue upon which the shoulder-perched angel and devil debate, the very act by which all of us were forged and, last but not least, the powerful, enigmatic engines in our collective Freudian and Darwinian (or Confucian and Buddhist) boiler rooms? If there are sex maniacs, after all, what are they getting maniacal about? The two divisions of animals and plants...
Buoyed by the successful comedy career of Rick Rockwell, the VJ stylings of Eric Nies and the just-waiting-to-juggernaut acting career of Survivor Colleen Haskell, MANDY LAUDERDALE, redheaded devil woman and breakout star of Temptation Island, is fielding offers to capitalize on her fame. So far, she's been surprisingly fastidious. She told Howard Stern that she turned down a $1.5 million Playboy offer to pose nude, though a Playboy representative said the figure was much lower. The tragic loss to greasy-palmed men is a victory for the arts, as Lauderdale plans to focus on a singing...
