...Wednesday extolled Clinton as "the greatest President for our people of all time." Hours later in Pennsylvania, Clinton was so jazzed by the rope line that he went back to the beginning and worked it again--four times. "We've had a good day," he told an aide late that night. "We've had several good days...
Which is why, says Aguilar, Raul Salinas approached the group's leaders to abduct Ruiz Massieu. Originally the plan was just for a kidnapping, to silence him--and perhaps to punish him for an acrimonious divorce from Salinas' sister.

...Iacocca launched EV Global in late 1996. Now EVG has 10 employees, support from Taiwan's Giant bicycle (which produces the E-Bike) and backing from private Swiss and Italian financiers ("Europe is our next stop," he says).

...American Medical Association, who the AMA said was booted for "inappropriately and inexcusably interjecting JAMA into the middle of a debate that has nothing to do with science or medicine." The sin? Lundberg published a study--begun in 1991, analyzed in '95 and presented to JAMA in late '98--on the attitudes of U.S. college students toward sex. Among the findings: 59% of the student group did not view a person who has had oral sex as having "had sex," which could be seen as supportive of Bill Clinton. The firing is the latest in a string of controversies...
