Greenspan expects "no breakout of inflation," analyzes Baumohl, but he does believe it "could pick up a bit in 1999." One of the main reasons the Fed chairman cited for his prediction was what he called "worker depletion." Full employment has created a scarcity of labor in a number of sectors, explains Baumohl, and that shortage could cause a small rise in wage inflation this year.

One of the few breakout shows last year was Comedy Central's scabrous South Park, and the year before, Fox had its own success with that animated paean to redneck Texas, King of the Hill.

The National Republican Congressional Committee, which funds House races, figures to spend $28 million on issue ads in more than 30 states, a blitz dubbed Operation Breakout. That compares with $13 million in 1996. Democrats will spend $7 million, up $1 million from two years ago. The G.O.P. is expected to lay out $10 million on Senate races before the campaign is over.

...newcomer to Nashville, Moorer writes songs that have an airy, panoramic sound and enough lonesome twang to fill a steel-guitar convention. She also comes with an impressive calling card: her lovely acoustic ballad A Soft Place to Fall was a breakout hit from the soundtrack to last spring's The Horse Whisperer. Moorer's deft songwriting proves she can live up to the advance billing. Classic mid-tempo heartbreakers like Tell Me Baby and Set You Free are her specialty, coaxing a gorgeously plaintive edge from her voice. Moorer may not have the pipes to belt it out like...
