...patting one another on the back for finally hooking the biggest fish in an investigation into what U.S. Deputy Attorney General James Comey described last week as Enron's "spectacular fall from grace." Lay, 62, was the public face of the once stodgy pipeline firm that morphed into the seventh biggest U.S. company by trading natural gas and megawatts of power. A minister's son with a Ph.D. in economics, Lay was spared being charged with approving Enron's now famous off-the-books partnerships that hid so much debt for so long. And unlike the two former colleagues...
...there something in the water? Dénes Kemény can't think of any other explanation for Hungary's stellar record in water polo. From 1928 to 1980, the Hungarian men won medals at every Olympics, taking home gold six times. In 2000, they won their seventh title.

Last February, while the band was finishing its seventh album, A Ghost Is Born, Tweedy quit taking his migraine medication and went into an emotional free fall. "It was terrifying," he says. "I was having such severe panic I couldn't think. It was all I could do to put one foot in front of the other." After checking...
...very unstatesmanlike cameo as a libidinous Turkish prince. Filmed last July--before he had a really, really big state to run--Schwarzenegger's scenes won't help him shed his Governor Groper image. In the movie's trailer, the bewigged action hero entreats a comely blond to become his seventh wife: "One for each day of the week. Do Tuesdays work for you?" The Governor's office declined to comment on his role in the film. California's crucial polygamist vote, though, seems a lock...
