...Blues. But upstairs, in the nightclub's Foundation Room, the party rocked on. The VIP area, decked out in opium-den chic, is where show-biz types go to guzzle champagne in roped-off security. Unfortunately, by the time rock-music pioneer Phil Spector met B-movie actress Lana Clarkson there, the careers of both had seen better days: he was a legendary has-been; she had been a wannabe for way too long. The encounter would prove fatal...

CHARGED. PHIL SPECTOR, 62, legendary record producer turned virtual recluse; with first-degree murder in connection with the fatal shooting of B-movie actress Lana Clarkson; in Los Angeles. A close friend of John Lennon, Spector co-produced the Beatles' final album Let It Be. His revolutionary "wall of sound" recording techniques transformed the music industry, making possible such 1960s pop hits like the Ronettes' Be My Baby and the Righteous Brothers' You've Lost That Loving Feeling. Spector has been released on $1 million bail and will be represented by Robert Shapiro, the lawyer who played a key role...

...hurt someone--but forced to hide his powers, he's considered a nerd at school. There is a lot of corn in Smallville, Kans., and some of it finds its way into the script. But the series rethinks familiar Superman motifs in fresh ways. Clark's secret love Lana (Kristin Kreuk) wears a kryptonite pendant that makes him literally weak in the knees when she comes near, and when Clark wears an S on his chest in the pilot, it is painted on him as a sadistic joke by jocks. Super but vulnerable, his is an alter...
