...Could Talk, the story of unplanned pregnancies in the 1950s, '70s and '90s. Moore produced the series, and Cher's episode is her directorial debut. "I loved it. It was the coolest thing since men," says Cher. "But it was much more exhausting than I thought. I had to sneak away to pee." Cher also plays a doctor who gets shot, which she didn't like as much.

"Profound sneak attack," charges one tobacco lobbyist. The tobacco industry and some associated industries, like U.S. Sugar, filed suit to repeal the bill; the Florida Supreme Court is expected to rule soon. Although last year Governor Lawton Chiles vetoed the legislature's repeal of the legislation, the lawmakers are expected to override...
