Casting off the satanic trappings and apocalyptic rants that mesmerized a huge teen audience, rock's prince of darkness has made himself over with a lighter new look--think Roswell alien goes Vegas--and a slicker sound. Mechanical Animals takes Manson away from his industrial-rock roots and moves him closer to mainstream heavy metal. Gone is the bludgeoning attack of his earlier albums; here he finds room for more melody, even some hooks. Beneath the makeup, Manson is still rock's most piercing critic--blasting, among other things, youth culture, rock music and conservatives. Manson fans, fear...

...veterans, the teen churlishness has been like a tonic. Lindsay Davenport, who most recently beat Hingis at the Acura in Los Angeles in early August, has taken three tournaments in a row this summer. "She's playing the best tennis by far at the moment," says Martina Navratilova. The self-deprecating Californian has never sought the spotlight and has suffered from criticism of her weight. Now, she's 25 lbs. lighter and many times fitter. Two weeks ago, she was sitting down for a makeover and being filmed by a network TV show. Davenport, 22, says she's not "looking...
