Starr's methods, however, will be debated again next month in the trial of Julie Hiatt Steele of Virginia, whom he has accused of obstructing justice and making false statements. At one level, it shapes up as a petty personal contest between Steele and Kathleen Willey, the woman who said Clinton groped her in November 1993. Steele, who was Willey's friend, contradicts Willey's claim that she told Steele about the incident...
...example, only make sense if Serbian forces need fuel to prevail and don't have much stockpiled. "We have destroyed all their big reserves and refineries, but they have a whole network of smaller storage reserves," a French official says.

Last month Carey accompanied Enrico and the presidents of Pepsi, Frito and Tropicana on a historic first joint call on a major retailer to remind the customer of those figures...
...reason the National Hockey League absorbed the upstart World Hockey Association, where Gretzky was playing for the Edmonton Oilers. He had won four Stanley Cup championships with the Oilers by the time he was 27. He married actress Janet Jones in Canada's royal wedding, and a month later was sold to L.A. to teach the Americans about hockey and break his own country's heart. (A clearly troubled Canadian House leader complained that "the Edmonton Oilers without Wayne Gretzky is like Wheel of Fortune without Vanna White.") Gretzky moved again to St. Louis, Mo., and then to New York...
