Hotel companies also provide a mix of unusual nontravel rewards. Best Western International's 10-year-old Gold Crown Club International program gives its members 3 points for every $1 spent at a Best Western hotel.

...show-stopping vocal acrobatics of 'da Singer (Vickilyn Reynolds) are certainly loud, but the Shubert's poorly-tuned sound system prevent most of the audience from distinguishing what exactly the lyrics to her songs are.

...ROMs bearing the all-important "gold code" for Win 98 were due to be delivered to the likes of Dell, Compaq and Hewlett-Packard this Friday. Microsoft spokesman Mark Murray said the fact it had been delayed "will not have any impact on the commercial launch date" for the top operating system upgrade, still set for June 25. What Reno et al would like before then is an agreement to let manufacturers remove the Internet Explorer icon, among others, from the Win 98 desktop. She shouldn't hold her breath. Given Microsoft's penchant for brinksmanship, that could take some...
