Spelling then offered her Charmed, a dramatic series about three young sisters who wear slip dresses, complain about dating and in the premiere episode, discover they are witches. The series, which has drawn surprisingly good ratings, manages to tap into TV's current fascination with the occult (The X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer) while recalling the classic three-babe structure of Spelling's '70s hit Charlie's Angels. Here, Doherty would seem to fit into the Jaclyn Smith mold--easily the most beautiful one but not necessarily the sexiest. (Alyssa Milano gets the Farrah Fawcett-Majors pinup part, while...

Not a section of a cone (the cone diminishes towards its vertex) but something else, a curvature whose radius does not alter but whose walls constantly change their angle. Then make it out of steel plates, 2 in. thick. You will end up with...
...Clinton so that the focus is on charges like obstruction of justice, witness tampering and, grandest of all, conspiracy. Between now and Nov. 3, with lawmakers out campaigning, the committee's staff members will function as quietly as possible as they prepare for postelection hearings. Witness lists will be drawn up, depositions taken and decisions made about whether to pursue calls from people volunteering information about Clinton. Next week White House lawyers will meet with committee counterparts to discuss what a Clinton aide called "mechanics." By that he means issues like settling which facts in the Starr report...
