...money next. "Clients are calling about speculative stocks that they've heard about at cocktail parties over the weekend. I'm worried about this," says Jerry Tisserand, a broker for Thomson McKinnon Securities at a branch in Evansville, Ind. At the same time, many investors realize that a bear market could hit at any moment. Some become spooked by sudden downdrafts and sell too soon. "It's hard to keep people in the volatile blue chips.

Sir Terence's sister Priscilla oversees the development of new products for her brother and still finds time to create...
...incidents of life reveal the workings of vast, elemental forces. The other, astonishingly enough, is Greek drama, in which the psychological intimacy among characters is irrelevant, since their destinies are determined by the workings of blind fate. Though naturalism is the controlling mode of Jean de Florette, audiences should bear the Greek model in mind when Manon des Sources, the second part of this work, is released in the fall. In it the eerily beautiful Emmanuelle Beart plays Jean's daughter Manon, now grown up and ready to take vengeance on her father's tormentors. To be prepared for this...
