...such a rapid period of time," says Stephen Sadove, CEO of Saks Inc. This year, savings are up and credit-card use is down, which is good--sort of.

Despite Nabokov’s request that it be posthumously burnt, his family suddenly concluded a tortured 30-year debate this fall by deciding to grant the public access to the fragments.
