...Former Gold Club manager Thomas Cicignano - nicknamed Ziggy - charged that Kaplan over several years "orchestrated" a series of sexual events involving professional athletes and other favored customers. With jurors and spectators leaning forward and journalists scribbling madly, Ziggy recounted a 1997 visit to the club by New York Knick Patrick Ewing and a couple of unnamed teammates.

...After eight years of Clinton appointments, George W. Bush wants to quickly pack the federal courts with as many conservative jurists as he can. Daschle has promised not to block or stall confirmations as Republicans did with many of Clinton's judicial nominees. Sen. Patrick Leahy, the new chairman of the Judiciary Committee, insists there won't be payback for the last eight years when Republicans left many Clinton picks languishing in committee. But Leahy is quick to add, "we're not going to have a judiciary made up of ideologues on the right." Translated: W can probably expect just...
