...more often a problem for men than for women. David H. Rosen, a psychiatrist and Jungian analyst who teaches at Texas A&M University at College Station, says men often feel lost when they retire because their sense of self-worth is overly identified with work. Rosen, who wrote Transforming Depression: Healing the Soul Through Creativity (Nicholas-Hays), cites the movie About Schmidt, in which Jack Nicholson's title character, a retired insurance actuary, is saved from aimlessness and depression by his connection through a charity to a child in Africa. "That little thread of contact with a child outside...
...integrated campaign" purportedly includes humanitarian aid to those displaced by war, but the t.n.i. itself acknowledges food is running short, and the U.N.'s Children Fund warns that basic health services are collapsing. Military analyst Kusnanto Anggoro is unimpressed by Jakarta's avowed attempt to win Acehnese hearts and minds. "I don't think (the military) has any new strategy at all," he says.

By 2005, five of Toyota's nine U.S. lines will produce multiple models, accounting for 71% of the automaker's North American volume, according to analyst Michael Bruynesteyn of Prudential Securities. Only a third of Big Three plants, with 34% of their production volume, will be as flexible by then. Winning the flex race, Bruynesteyn writes, "has been the key catalyst for the dramatic acceleration in market-share transfer from the domestics to the transplants...
