...most experts warn that the worst is yet to come. "The viruses we've seen so far are child's play," says Donn Parker, a computer-crime expert at SRI International in Menlo Park, Calif. Parker fears that the same viruses that are inconveniencing personal-computer users today could, through the myriad links and entry points that connect large networks, eventually threaten the country's most vital computer systems. Agrees Harold Highland, editor of Computers & Security magazine: "We ain't seen nothing...
...congested cities have begun to understand that their traffic problems will drive away business. For one thing, companies in gridlocked cities have trouble luring employees from other locales. "Today the relative ease or difficulty of commuting and parking is a major factor in the choice of employment," says Donn Knight, vice president of the Government Employees Insurance Co. in Chevy Chase, Md.

Most misdeeds boiled down to what Donn Parker, a computer-crime watcher at SRI International, calls "data diddling"--entering false numbers at a keyboard. To pay for his wife's drug purchases, for example, a programmer at a savings and loan company in Los Angeles transferred $5,000 into his personal account and tried to cover up the switch with phony debit and credit transactions. The error was picked up in a routine bank audit. Among the 15 programmers and ten students nabbed, the offenses committed most often were thefts of software and telecommunications services. The rest of the crimes...
...added bonus, the Boston Ballet also presents George Balanchine's Allegro Brilliante as the first part of its program. Constructed on a theme of cadences, the ballet requires both precision and musicality of its dancers. While the corps looks ragged at times, the principal dancers, Mouis and Donn Edwards, excel. Edwards, technically correct and understated in his dancing, unfortunately is overpowered by his partner. Mouis, with a lovely natural line, displays accuracy combined with a sensuous, playful air. While the others dance on the beat, Mouis, presenting an expressive carriage and port de bras, interprets the music and dances with...
