...world, and the price he pays is shocking: his nose grows with every lie, his feet are burned off, he is chained like a dog and even hanged. But the boy sure can dish it out: when a moralizing cricket gets in his face, boy squashes bug. No. 2: Bravo, Pinocchio! The little wooden boy is led astray but quickly recovers, and the price he pays is small: his nose grows, but there are no burned feet. And when the cricket gets in his face, it isn't squashed; it sings Give a Little Whistle. For 62 years - ever since...
...desperate attempt to look hip. And the network's high-priced new star anchor is getting so-so ratings at best. No, it's not that network--or either of the other two.

An $80,000 profit, and they still have the car - all tuned up, to boot. Bravo, wise guys. • That I should not admire wise guys; they're ruining the planet. • That my two-year-old son's ability to assemble complex structures with his Lego doesn't qualify him as a captain of industry. • That there is poetry in small shareholders. At Vivendi's April...
Success leads to success--at least that's what executives at Great Universal Stores are hoping. Bravo, 51, the elegant CEO of GUS's Burberry unit, will be overseeing the roughly $2 billion public offering of stock in the company. Bravo brought the fashion house back from the brink in 1997, and under her leadership, Burberry's sales increased 47% last year...
