...contemporaries like the Los Angeles Raiders' naval attache Napoleon McCallum. But he feels no pangs. "I'm glad it's over and sad it's finished," Jackson says with a soft laugh. "I'll sit up in the stands later this year and watch them play. And I'll smile and say, 'That's the life you didn't choose...
Giacalone, a slender woman with a wide and warm smile, has built a reputation as a relentlessly thorough prosecutor who works long hours. She likes solving intellectual puzzles; to assemble her cases, she has used masses of records and files that go back for 18 years, records that other prosecutors did not think worth the time. "Blind alleys disappoint some people," she says. "But I like them. You find many interesting doors on both sides as you walk down a blind alley."

Soon enough, though, she straightens up to introduce herself to the camera. It's not that she cares what people think of her, she says with a candid smile, but "enough is enough."

Some 3,000 girls auditioned for the 16 roles in the musical, which is due to preview next month in Baltimore...
While their opponents grumble about the Kennedy name and the attendant media fuss, both Joe and Kathleen are trying to wage issue-oriented campaigns. Though his broad smile and raw physical presence recall his father's energy and charisma, Joe Kennedy's politics are not quite Robert Kennedy's. After completing an academic career that included stints at three colleges (he finally graduated from the University of Massachusetts at Boston), Kennedy founded a nonprofit corporation called Citizens Energy Corp., which provides inexpensive heating fuel and prescription drugs to low-income families. Citing his company's solid success in almost every...
