...answer may well be yes. Boosted by the campaigns, milk sales have increased for the first time in decades, up .9% over last year. That's not enough to strain the dairy herd, and milk's not going to be replacing Chardonnay at Hollywood parties. But for a product that's been in a 30-year funk, it's not a bad start to a comeback...
...almost imagine that Cameron is asking a higher power to help navigate his Titanic to a safe harbor at the box office next summer. The picture, which has been in production since September on locations ranging from Nova Scotia to Baja California, is already causing a stir in Hollywood with its burgeoning budget, which studio sources peg as low as $120 million and others put as high as $180 million.

...Well, Hollywood is offering a few scraps from the Christmas table for this neglected minority audience. Jingle All the Way follows a desperate parent searching for the one toy his child hopes will be under the Christmas tree. The director is Brian Levant, who moved plenty of Flintstones merchandise with his last film hit; the star is Arnold Schwarzenegger, himself a preposterous and popular action figure. For the science nerd in all of us, there's Star Trek: First Contact, eighth in the series, second with Patrick Stewart helming the Enterprise. And if Grandma drops by for Christmas dinner...
