...classic trio: sex, lies and videotape. The first two were revealed in nauseating detail in the Starr report, and if you thought that was embarrassing for the President, wait till you see the third. The tapes of his August 17 grand jury testimony were included in the 36-box CARE package Starr sent to Congress last week; now the House Judiciary Committee has signaled that they may be among the first batch of supporting evidence put in the public domain. Imagine: four to six hours of the leader of the world's last superpower giving slippery answers to questions about...
...group of three C-141's separated by 8,000 feet. Not only does that allow for a fast drop, it also minimizes the time the planes spend over a potentially hostile area. But the C-17 creates such a wind wake that the Air Force is keeping each trio of planes 40,000 feet apart. That distance -- nearly seven miles -- stretches delivery time to 51 minutes. "It really slows up our ability to get troops on the ground," an Army officer says. Boeing, the plane's builder, is working with the Air Force and Army to figure...
...wasn't locked, it wasn't even closed, and it creaked open wider when you knocked. This ain't Compton, this ain't the Queensbridge projects, but this is where hip-hop lives in the 9-8: this is the home of Lauryn Hill, rapper/singer/actress, member of the rap trio the Fugees; the woman whose neosoul vocals took a hip-hop remake of Killing Me Softly to the top of the charts; the woman whose first solo album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, was released last week to wild acclaim. The streety hip-hop magazine the Source called Hill...
Look out, LeAnn Rimes: a couple of kids are gaining on you. Amanda Wilkinson, 16, and brother Tyler, 14, are two-thirds of this Canadian country trio. Dad Steve sings harmony and co-wrote many of the tunes, which echo the sweet simplicity of Buddy Holly and the Everly Brothers. Don't I Have a Heart gives a nice airing to Tyler's pubescent fretfulness, a mix of bravado and bafflement ("I don't have a clue,/ But don't I have a heart?"). And Amanda is the true vocal goods--her precocious alto dusky and authoritative--plus, she yodels...
...hype about entertainers eager to cash in their estate before it actually exists, but few deals have been cut. That's about to change. David Pullman, the banker behind the Bowie deal, closed three more celebrity-bond deals in July. Altogether he raised $30 million for the Motown writing trio of Edward and Brian Holland and Lamont Dozier, whose hits include Stop! in the Name of Love and Baby I Need Your Loving. To date, Pullman's deals are the only ones of their kind, though Nomura Capital Entertainment recently arranged a $15 million loan for Rod Stewart that...
