...really glum about women's roles in current movies, look at the old ones. Of course, golden-age Hollywood didn't waste time on the war of the worlds; it was defining the battle of the sexes, and here the woman often won. Because she was better. Joan Crawford, as mom and career woman in Mildred Pierce (1945), could handle herself and a gun with steely assurance. And as a playwright in Sudden Fear (1952), she was smart enough to write her way out of her psychopathic husband's clutches. Could Julia Roberts have pulled that off in Sleeping with...
...under $95. "They're calling upon the shareholders to buck up and pay down the company's debt," griped Michael Kupinski, a communications- industry analyst. "Why take the risk? You're not going to know what you have to pay until afterward." Others appeared to disagree, including Gordon Crawford, a money manager at the Los Angeles-based institutional holder Capital Group, which owns 12% of Time Warner's stock.

...During the procedure, called hyperthermia, blood is drawn from a vein in the groin, heated in a water bath and continuously recirculated into the body. In little more than an hour, the body's temperature reaches 108 degrees F, and it is kept there for an additional two hours. Crawford came through the operation with no ill effects, as did Tony -- so far. Logan and Alonso were careful not to call their treatment a cure for AIDS. Said Logan at a press conference: "It may not be the total answer. We're not expecting that really...
