...while alienating Kenneth Starr by his public denunciations of the independent counsel's tactics. Given that his client was trying to deny a sexual involvement with the President, he also had an unhelpful way of describing her. Not long after he told TIME that he had kissed the infant Lewinsky's inner thighs--"those little polkehs!"--he was explaining that he had agreed to the Vanity Fair shoot because Starr had imprisoned "her libido." It was a remark that on top of other faux pas so infuriated Lewinsky's father Bernard, an old friend, that for a while he stopped...
...Queen Elizabeth and Pope John Paul II (and has had one of his pieces sold at auction for $5.8 million), painted the statuesque wife of MICK JAGGER. Best known for disturbing portraits of fleshy naked women, Sigmund's grandson shows the leggy Texan both pregnant and with her then infant son.

...made meals of all that he sired. In St. Charles, Mo., last week a modern parallel to that myth may have emerged. If charges are true, Brian Stewart, 31, possesses a similarly cold-blooded compulsion. He is accused of first-degree assault for injecting HIV-positive blood into his infant son, allegedly to avoid paying child support. If the boy is finally eaten away by disease, authorities say, they will elevate the charge to murder...
