When Monica Lewinsky went to Washington, her first thrilling foray into independence and adult responsibility, she did what so many young people do when they leave the nest: she assembled a surrogate family for herself. She chose her father figure, Bill Clinton, even before she got to town, it seems, and won him over in a panty-flash. But finding a stand-in mother took a while. For a time Betty Currie, the President's secretary, seemed to fill the role, but when Lewinsky was transferred from the White House to the Pentagon, she apparently found a new mama: Linda...
Unlike Everything but the Girl, whose smashing foray into electronica on their latest Walking Wounded represented a revolutionary addition to their delicate, acoustic lounge songwriting, Saint Etienne has been busily crafting taut electronic Euro-pop for nearly a decade now. If their sophisticated European following is any indication, Saint Etienne has all but captured the sound of sunny metropolitan luxury. However, only on their latest, utterly adroit album Good Humor has the band truly devised ravishing and flawless pop music in the most classic sense of the term.

Had the line been any less efficient, fans might have...
...levels of fun. Pam Shriver, 36, who retired last year, relishes her last professional foray, a doubles match that she and Elizabeth Smylie, then 34, played against Kournikova and Elena Likhovtseva, then 21, at Wimbledon in 1997. Hordes of hormonal boys were in the stands screaming "Come on, Horni-kova!" says Shriver as she only too happily recalls extending the younger team to a long third set before finally losing. And was Kournikova gracious in victory? Shriver bellows in laughter, "I'm sorry, but I don't think she knows the meaning of the word...
