Although seeking out one of these establishments may seem daunting, in reality it is simpler than one would imagine. Lanes and Games, the largest bowling alley in the Boston area, is just a paltry 10 minute walk from the Alewife T-station in Cambridge. This grand dame of a bowl-o-rama offers two floors, 40 lanes and two different types of bowling options--10 pin and the New England phenomenon known as candlepin. Deodorized rental shoes, greasy communal bowling balls, fuzzy multi-colored walls and pink plastic lane dividers make this bowling establishment a palace where tackiness reigns supreme...
Saul Williams is rarely at a loss for words. Aside from giving a vital voice to the newly revived spoken-word scene, the Slam star has talked nonstop about the movie at film festivals since it won the Grand Jury prize at Sundance last January. Nevertheless, the actor was nearly dumbstruck at Cannes, where the picture scored two more awards. As he walked with director Marc Levin, an elderly Frenchwoman approached him and started to cry.

...also interviewed a former friend of Willey's, Julie Steele. But she may not be much help: Steele disputes Willey's story that she came to see Steele in distress the night of the alleged incident. Starr, who called Steele before the grand jury twice last summer, recently asked her to come in for an interview with his prosecutors, but Steele declined. It's still far from clear whether anything coming out of the Willey investigation could help the Republicans in Congress make their case for impeachment. But it appears as if Willey, the woman who had her 15 minutes...
