...then fought back after losing the first set 6-4 to beat Steve Millerman 6-0, 6-2 in the next two sets at the No. 1 match. Freshman Oli Choo, playing at No. 5, completed the remarkable comeback, with a 3-6, 6-1, 6-1 victory over Oscar Chow...
...ghost of CHARLES HORMAN continues to haunt the CIA. The American expatriate, killed during the 1973 coup led by Chilean General AUGUSTO PINOCHET UGARTE, was immortalized in the Oscar-winning 1982 movie Missing.

...tell everyone I know about it. Everyone," if she expects to keep her job as a TGIF girl. Plus, I have a feeling that if she gets fired from "Sabrina", nobody will be rushing to hire her anytime soon....What is up with Mira Sorvino? She wins an Oscar, she conquers the world, and then she sinks like the Titanic. She's made like 30 bad movies in a row (including the dreadful At First Sight). And then to stoop even lower, she ruined her wonderful entrance at the MTV Video Music Awards by gushing on and on about Prince...
