Julie Sorrentino, an instructor of Pilates-based exercise at Body Balance in New York City, recognizes the healing power of Pilates, but warns that "Its not a miracle cure. It will give you the body you want if you're devoted," she adds. "You have to work at it." She recommends a private Pilates session (ranging from about $38 to 60 each, depending on the studio) two to three times per week. For optimal results, the Pilates workouts should be complemented by regular cardiovascular exercise. So, as FM gossip columnists claim, was Madonna's Pilates coming-out party...
...doesn't try to do anything more than give a quick and superficial tour of the Amazonian rain forests. Even with all the colorful visual distractions sprinkled throughout the film, one can't help but notice the handling of this clumsy plot.

Its success or failure will decide not only the well-being of the world's ninth-largest economy--and the preservation of the strong, dollar-pegged currency, the real--but also possibly the fate of the global system of free trade and investment...
...problem with the stock market is that it has become alienated from the real world by its own insane pace [SPECIAL REPORT, Sept. 14]. If short-term investment in stocks was made impossible, the market would cure itself of this insanity. The connection between actual company profits and stock prices now seems thin indeed, and the notion that you invest in a company to get a share of that company's profits has almost been lost. To buy shares in a company for less than a year can't possibly be deemed serious. Profits from such short-term investments ought...
