...will hack costs, Bill Ford knows the real question is whether his company can produce cars that have the quality, style and value that drivers want. The biggest challenge is "to restore a sense of confidence, both externally and internally, in the company," he says. Despite an emotional new ad campaign that stresses innovation, the turnaround is complicated. Brands like Toyota have better reputations; their cars resell for as much as $2,500 more than American cars, according to Ronald Tadross, auto analyst with Banc of America Securities. "Ford has a revenue problem, not a cost problem. Their products just...
...ever there was clear evidence of the changes in U.S. society since the time of King, it is in the juxtaposition of the photos on your front and back covers. The back-cover ad, portraying Serena Williams as the strong, empowered woman she is, could not have been rendered in King's day. Today we take such portrayals of black women for granted.

One part of Soderbergh's brain makes can't-miss caper films and weepie dramas (Ocean's Eleven, Erin Brockovich) with the town's priciest talent. Another part is indelibly indie: he will shoot an ad-lib HBO series about lobbyists (K Street), or remake a mystical Russian sci-fi art film (Solaris). Not everything works, but it's more than cool that he tries...
...what exactly have 40 years of experimental pharmacology done to them? It would not have been possible--much less ethical--to recruit subjects when the 1960s drug circus got started, send them off for four decades of substance abuse and bring them back for study. But now that the ad hoc longitudinal experiment those aging boomers have been conducting on themselves is reaching its endgame, addiction experts are pouncing on what the doctors and psychiatrists treating the abusers are learning. What they uncover may help not only the surviving victims of the early drug years but younger users as well...
