WASHINGTON, D.C.: Labor Secretary Robert Reich announced that employers who have abused their access to workers' 401(k) plans have until September 6th to return the funds or face prosecution. "As cops on the beat, our goal is not to collect fines," Reich said. "Our goal is to get workers the money that's owed them as quickly as possible." Reich's pragmatic approach, said TIME's Bernard Baumohl, is most likely due to the prohibitive legal costs of pursuing errant employers. "Companies have now been given due warning and a grace period to replenish the 401(k)," said Baumohl...

A couple of kisses aside, they sin entirely in their heads, and then quite guiltily. One can easily imagine them as Gwen and Lance, furtively smooching on the 18th tee during a country-club dance, or stealing glances across...
...existentialist, Sean Connery's King Arthur is a temporizing leader for the Clinton era, and Julia Ormond's Guinevere is all up-to-date feminist spunk. The Camelot of Jerry Zucker's "First Knight," says TIME's Richard Schickel, is more a modern gated community than a myth-enshrouded, 6th century realm. And the great romance that was played out there -- legend's ur-Triangle -- comes across as not much more consequential than suburban adultery: "One can easily imagine Guinevere and Lancelot as Gwen and Lance, furtively smooching on the 18th tee during a country-club dance, or stealing glances...
