Finally, Scott Reed, the Dole campaign manager, is trying to recruit a new messagemeister and some Designated Thinkers who can punch up Dole's listless stump speech. Reed has been trying to improve it since September, but has been unable to find the right person for the job. Several of the people Reed has sounded out for help recently are holding out--for Powell. And Dole insiders wonder whether Dole would even listen to anyone new. As a senior adviser put it, in the classic campaign argot of nouns-as-verbs: "What good is a guru Dole isn't going...
Many men's singles players advanced deep, but none have stayed undefeated. Blake lost a close, 7-6 (5), 4-6, 7-6 (5) match to Princeton's Reed Cordish in the quarterfinals, who had defeated Tseng a round earlier. Arnold and Meringoff, meanwhile, both fell to Aaron Marchetti of Virginia Tech, the other semifinalist...
Dole responded with heavy artillery. Both sides admit she got a phone call from campaign manager Scott Reed. She says he threatened her with blackmail. Dole's camp denies that, calling her "hysterical." But the incident played into Huffington's hand, showing the Dole campaign overreacting to a mere newspaper column.

As the wife of the bar's proprietor, Rondi Reed declaims, but does not convey, the pathos of a woman who bleakly sees through the egotism of much male solicitude. Hopper makes a sweet Picasso: you can believe he painted harlequins but not minotaurs. Most satisfying is Nelson as Einstein; a diminutive figure, he expresses something of an atom's compacted, ferocious potential energy...
...There for You--a hit single that received endless mtv airplay and launched the career of its performers, The Rembrandts--appears in two versions on the record. The rest of the collection showcases songs from such artists as the Pretenders, Hootie & the Blowfish, k.d. lang, R.E.M. and Lou Reed, all of whom will be heard on the show this season. Compiled in part by Friends executive producer Kevin Bright, a music buff with an 8,000-volume record collection, the CD reflects the sitcom's young, urban sensibility. "What I didn't want to do was just...
