...Brilliant as it is, it's not as good an idea as the SunSpot, a round towel on which beach goers could rotate themselves to remain in the sun's direct light throughout the course of the day. Sadly, the towels never caught on, nor did the all-hemp suit Harrelson had designer Giorgio Armani create for the 1997 Oscars. Undeterred, Harrelson unveiled the Headwaters Hiker earlier this year, the first in a line of environment-friendly footwear made entirely from hemp. Wearers should note that "mistakenly" smoking your shoe is illegal in all 50 states...
...that you would expect rigorous theology to be any movie's strong suit. "Where's God in all this?" Williams asks a fellow heavenite played by Cuba Gooding Jr., who replies, "He's up there somewhere, shouting down that he loves us." Not only is this dialogue unplayable (kudos to Gooding for not even sniggering); it makes God sound slovenly, like a bosomy mama hanging out a tenement window in an old Italian movie. The denizens of hell, meanwhile, appear to be damned for their lack of self-esteem--a quintessentially '90s view of sin. Forgive yourself, and cue beautiful...

...however, getting progressively more difficult to put Microsoft's legal woes down to misleading snippets that only appear to show anticompetitive behavior. Tuesday's ruling in the Sun Microsytems suit, for one, forces the company to stop pushing a "polluted" Windows-only version of Java; the judge said Sun's case had "real merit." Gates has since grudgingly decided to support pure, Scott McNealy-brand Java in Windows 98. "We're moving to make our product comply with the order," he told the AP. Will the beleaguered billionaire be saying the same once the government case is complete? "Just wait...
...often a women's ideas can be obscured by comments about her hair style, the color of her suit, her figure and, most disturbingly, her degree of femininity--none of which are the subject of comment when male political leaders speak. When President Clinton first appointed Madeleine K. Albright secretary of state, the media was more interested in analyzing her "manly" style than her policies. Ally McBeal spends most of her time fretting over men and primping herself to look attractive, while male heroes of the Harrison Ford mold only have time to give their wives and girlfriends a peck...
