...reminisces about her happy days of youth?before she became a cold-blooded killer. Her sister Sue (Zhao Wei), clad in terry cloth hot pants and a skimpy tank top, comes in to ask for career advice. She isn't satisfied being the computer genius of the criminal duo, and wants to do some killing too. Lynn scoffingly kicks her with a long, soapy leg, setting off a wet kung fu fight that is saved from going soft-porn only by judicious editing and a large white towel...
...hard to picture samuel beckett rocking out, but once you clear that mental hurdle, it's easy to imagine Beckett grooving to DAVID BAERWALD. From his days as half of the '80s pop duo David + David to his gig co-writing Sheryl Crow's Tuesday Night Music Club, Baerwald has written about the misery of life and the imperative to go on. On Here Comes the New Folk Underground, his first album in 10 years, Baerwald remains the prince of rain, singing "Love is eternal as long as it lasts/ Good times come, then they pass." The lyrical dourness...
Though by far the most visible, the WorldCom duo wasn't the only prey: telecom firm Qwest, already under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Justice (DOJ), is close to restating the past three years of earnings by more than $1 billion; apparel maker Warnaco is now in the SEC's cross hairs; and prosecutors were driving a hard bargain in plea negotiations with ImClone's ex-CEO Samuel Waksal, insisting that he accept at least seven years in prison on insider-trading charges and declining to spare his family members from prosecution...

Now implicated in the mess are the gold-winning French ice-dance team of Russian-born Marina Anissina and Gwendal Peizerat. Anissina and her mother are the two women believed to be caught on tape talking with Tokhtakhounov. As many as six judges could...
...remember another Lewis manifestation, on Dick Clark's "Bandstand." It was Thanksgiving Day 1957 and, as Tosches notes, the other guests were the teen duo Tom and Jerry, later Simon and Garfunkel. For the kids in Philadelphia, Pa., Lewis sang his follow-up hit, "Great Balls of Fire." He tore through the number and, toward the end, shook his long, slicked-back blond hair until it fell forward, like a toupee attached at the brow line, virtually covering his face. He was suddenly a peroxided version of the Addams Family's Cousin Itt, and for a moment I could feel...
