Sex is a fact of political life
Article Abstract:
The scandal surrounding the affair between President Bill Clinton and Monica Lewinsky has led to a redrawing of the lines between the public and the private. There have been significant developments in sexual politics since the 1970s, including the fact that discrimination against women in the workplace is regarded as no longer acceptable. The impact of these developments on the closed world of politics is now being seen clearly in the reaction to Clinton's attempts to separate his private life from his political role.

The irresistible rise of curves
Article Abstract:
Latest design trends reflect a growing desire for softer, curvier forms. Designers are now realizing that consumers find rounded, soft shapes much easier to look at than sharp lines. This is reflected in the design of Apple's new iMac computers, which have attractive curves, rather than simply being a stark box. Style is constantly evolving, and this means that designs of only a few years ago now look extremely old-fashioned.
