Crow is the fearless, hard-boiled leader of a Vatican-sponsored vampire hunting team that patrols North America (there is another team stationed in Europe). The movie opens with Crow's crew standing outside an old, dilapidated mansion in New Mexico that Crow believes is infested with a vampire "nest." The team loads up, arming themselves with high-tech crossbows, metallic lances and machine guns. Crow, his face a weather-beaten mask of intensity, glares into the camera. The group's tag-along priest blesses them over the Holy Bible. The team then storms the mansion and the resulting melee...

She chose her father figure, Bill Clinton, even before she got to town, it seems, and won him over in a panty-flash. But finding a stand-in mother took a while. For a time Betty Currie, the President's secretary, seemed to fill the role, but when Lewinsky was transferred from the White House to the Pentagon, she apparently found a new mama: Linda...
Technology was supposed to make our lives simpler. Instead we're stuck with 40-lb. monitors, beeping cell phones and a rat's nest of cables. Now JVC and Sharp are making truly simple handheld devices for sending and receiving e-mail. Users just type a note, dial a toll-free number on any phone, then hold the device up to the mouthpiece while short, modemlike screeches indicate that messages are being transmitted. Available this fall, JVC's $100 HC-E100 and Sharp's $150 TelMail require a $10 monthly...
