...where I work. Some of my co-workers are quite influential--a whole crowd of them just got named among the city's top journalists by Washingtonian Magazine--but one couldn't logically make a blanket statement about the whole bureau. Nevertheless, public-relations firms call my Journal voicemail nonstop when I'm covering a story. Three separate CEO's called--on their own initiative--to comment on the Internet commerce framework...
...melodramatic a term for Colonel Vasily Tsibliyev, Mir's commander. Stressed out is probably more like it. Like the Mir spacecraft itself, Tsibliyev is worn down and in danger of falling apart. He has been aboard the aging space station since February and has had to cope with nonstop crises: a fire, breakdowns in oxygen and cooling systems, a collision with a cargo ship and last week a power failure.

...secret of Midwest's success is niche marketing: customer-first service to business travelers from underserved locations in the Midwest, plus nonstop flights to major cities elsewhere.

(Over the same period, the four broadcast networks collectively lost 6% of their audience, largely because of competition from cable...
...Place--and his skirts were shorter than Heather Locklear's. He is Tarzan, ape-reared jungle king, the subject of more than 90 books, 40 movies and three TV series. Beginning on June 6 with a new documentary, Investigating Tarzan, AMC will showcase 32 of the films for three nonstop days and nights. They range from the 1918 Tarzan of the Apes through the Johnny Weissmuller vehicles of the 1930s and '40s (see our loinclothed hero beat up Nazis!) to the James Bondian takes of the 1960s...
