...Meyer Lansky in Bugsy (1991) and, a decade later, Sexy Beast's Don Logan, the Cockney-accented human incarnation of rage. "It is archetypes that I drift toward as an actor," Kingsley says. Almost all of them are touched by tragedy, including his upcoming role opposite Annette Bening in Mrs. Harris, the true story of the philandering Scarsdale-diet inventor Herman Tarnower, who was killed by a jilted lover in 1980. Attention-grabbing roles are now his routine, but Kingsley hasn't forgotten how it feels to be a novice. Unsurprisingly for a man who answers questions with earnest soliloquies...

"We're seeing it more frequently than we did before, and women in particular are less likely to accept society's norms than they were before," says preventive-medicine physician Roger Landry, an expert on aging...
...cosmetics market grew 14% in 2002 and where L'Oreal's sales grew 61% that year. In L'Oreal's view, it is selling products to an archetypal Miss Yu, who is 18, still lives at home and would like to buy rouge or lipstick; to an imaginary Mrs. Li, who is in her late 20s and has a good job and some disposable income; and to the thirtysomething prototype Mrs. Wong, married, with one child, and more inclined to use skin care than makeup.
