Although 708 girls played high school football in 1998, according to the National Federation of State High School Associations, it's not clear if there have ever been four on a varsity team. And it wasn't as if the four Lincoln girls got together to make a statement. Mora and Chaparro went into it together, curious to see if they could hack it. But Cruz and Macias decided independently to do the unexpected. "It's my senior year," Cruz says. "I wanted to try as many things as I could, because it's my last chance...
...September, the chunky young auteur faced a packed house at the Toronto Film Festival and smiled. "We're here tonight," Kevin Smith said, "and lightning has not struck the building.

He also makes the kind of bright, saucy films Hollywood wishes it could. So the studios have courted him ever since his 1988 hit Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown. They bought remake rights for Jane Fonda, then for Whoopi Goldberg (though the film wasn't made), then they asked him to direct Sister Act, First Wives Club, Runaway Bride and, he says, "anything with drag queens."

...billion shares out and a market value exceeding $400 billion, the company is among those with the most widely owned stocks in creation. Virtually every institution holds Microsoft stock, including those that manage your retirement accounts. Fidelity Investments has 149 million shares spread among 60 funds. If the bottom ever falls out of this baby, look out. The collateral damage will be nuclear, especially now that Microsoft is part of the Dow Jones industrial average...
