Carruth was not one of the three men--Stanley Abraham, Michael Kennedy and William Watkins--believed to be in the car from which shots were fired. But Kennedy's attorney, James Exum, tells TIME that throughout the attack, Carruth was driving his white Ford Expedition directly in front of Adams' car while talking by cell phone to Watkins, whom Kennedy has named as the gunman. And a homeowner in the neighborhood where the wounded woman stopped her car says he overheard Adams telling the police that her "boyfriend" had shot her. "Her composure and ability to talk with us were...
...ambitious goals in some 30 areas where the networks can improve opportunities for minorities. For example, it requires each network to establish a recruitment program for minority managers and writers; to "make every effort to increase its promotional spending for minority shows"; and to appoint at least one new African American to its board of directors by Sept. 1, 2000.

...integrating actual stores with online services, and concludes that they may be best positioned to own the future.

"It's the one thing people agree on--they all want Billy," said Lili (kindly refraining from adding, "just not in any more of those City Slickers movies"). Heeding our quality-of-life needs, Crystal last week consented to the gig. The Zanucks, producing the show for the first time, have pledged to trim...
...stores until March, but the hottest dress of next season has already won friends in high-profile places. The python-print frock made its debut in Milan last September at Gucci's Spring/Summer 2000 show. Within days, Vanity Fair had secured a one-sleeved prototype to (almost) adorn CAMERON DIAZ in its current issue, and Brazilian model GISELLE showcases a version with a daring plunge on the cover of the latest Harper's Bazaar. The dress has been making the party rounds as well. A newly brunette GWYNETH PALTROW wore it to a gala for the Metropolitan Museum's Costume...
