...most likely scenario, legally and politically, is the one that Starr was busy downplaying last week: that he will summon Lewinsky to testify and grant her limited immunity on the spot, which would prevent him from using her testimony against her but still allow him to prosecute her on the basis of other evidence.

Then there's Windows DNA FS (Distributed Internet Applications for Financial Services, for those keeping score at home), Microsoft's bid for the banking industry's long-term back-office software business, which looks like one of the biggest cash cows high-tech capitalism has yet to offer...
