...doesn't mean the ambitious Veep's worst nightmare -- the one about a Son of Ken Starr following him all the way to New Hampshire -- can't still come true. Shannon says Justice's ongoing probe into former top White House aide Harold Ickes' fund-raising practices could easily spill into Gore's lap. "Ickes was at all the important meetings, and what he did could implicate Gore. And although Ickes isn't covered under the Independent Counsel Act, she's thinking about appointing one anyway." If that happens? Party at Dick Gephardt...
Aware that the top witness was about to spill her guts, Kendall and Seligman turned up at the federal courthouse, asking for an extension on the Starr subpoena. Protective of the 23 citizens who have already spent a half-year in a closed, dark room, Judge Norma Holloway Johnson refused the lawyers' request, saying if Clinton can take vacation, he can talk to the grand jury. And at the end of the day, there were widespread leaks throughout the city that Monica had offered Starr examples of hypothetical statements in which Clinton had tried to guide her comments...

Will Lewinsky lawyer Plato Cacheris spill the beans to his tennis partner, Clinton attorney Bob Bennett? According to TIME Washington correspondent Michael Weisskopf, this is one set of secrets that won't spread along the legal grapevine. "In this case, there's not a lot of motivation for the defense to talk," says Weisskopf -- since if the President...
...infection survive if they are kept hydrated and, in some cases, hospitalized. But up to 1% do die--mostly children, the elderly and people with compromised immune systems. In all cases, antibiotics are not only useless but may actually make things worse, causing the bacteria to rupture and spill their toxin even more widely throughout the gut. Says Nancy Donley, a safe-food activist whose son died of E. coli infection: "We're not talking about minor gastrointestinal distress. It is a brutally ugly death...
