...something for themselves for once, the renewal that follows seems to draw them back toward caregiving. Four out of five women over 50 said having a job in which they help others is important to them, according to a joint study by the Simmons School of Management and Hewlett-Packard. "All the studies on spirituality and religion in America show women have a much higher rate of participation in religious and spiritual activities, and they rank service to community as more important than men do," Shellenbarger argues. "You're going to tell me that's really sexist, but I show...
...Digital music channels may also be offered ad-free, for a subscription fee, parrying satellite's advantage. "We're not gonna be on defense anymore," vows Infinity's CEO, Joel Hollander. Like other radio groups, Infinity wants a piece of the cell-phone action. It announced a deal with Hewlett-Packard and Nokia to broadcast radio content to mobile phones. Clear Channel, the nation's largest AM/FM network, also plans to offer content over handsets later this year. And digital radio is expected to be offered in luxury autos such as BMWs this fall...
...Jeri and George Soulier of Weiser, Idaho, saw a profile of Jason on the Wednesday's Child website last summer and quickly arranged to meet him.

Former Boeing chief Harry Stonecipher recently lost his job for having an affair with a company employee. Disney's Michael Eisner and Hewlett-Packard's Carly Fiorina lost their posts for poor performance, and AIG directors just forced out the firm's longtime chief, Maurice (Hank) Greenberg (see "Another Titan Takes a Tumble," above), as the company's legal woes mounted. WorldCom's collapse hit directors where it counted: their wallets. Last week...
...sharper during her burnt-earth campaign to acquire Compaq in 2002. To Fiorina, combining the two plodding PC businesses was the only way to improve profitability and take on the low-cost, direct-sales monster called Dell. To critics, merging two lousy operations had limited appeal. Director Walter Hewlett, a Stanford music professor and son of the co-founder, led a public proxy fight against the deal. Although Fiorina prevailed, the cost was high. Within months, Compaq CEO Michael Capellas, who was supposed to run the computer division, was out the door. Others followed...
