...stop "the process." In an op-ed piece last week in the New York Times, Pennsylvania Senator Arlen Specter suggested that Congress simply set the case aside and leave it for Starr to pursue after Clinton leaves office two years from now. Sources tell TIME that Ralph Reed, the former head of the Christian Coalition, even sent a memo to House Speaker-in-waiting Bob Livingston and other Republican leaders that urged them, as part of a program for G.O.P. renewal, to drop impeachment in favor of a bipartisan resolution of censure...
...your favorite CEO really in charge? Sandy Weill has engineered a tenfold stock gain while at the helm of Travelers Group and its predecessor companies since the mid-'80s. But last month Travelers merged with Citicorp to form Citigroup.

In the opening scene, Bobby demonstrates his occupational dedication by distilling and purifying every drop of water, which he distributes to the players with a contraption reminiscent of the Ghostbusters' particle-beam backpacks. The waterboy is fired after Coach Red (Jerry Reed) decides that the players are excessively distracted by his innocent, aqueous ambition. Bobby returns home for condolence from his mother (Kathy Bates, who seems stuck between her roles in Misery and Titanic). At this point, the endless volley of "bayou" jokes begins, ranging from a dinner of medium rare python...
