...Yourdon and his wife are moving from Manhattan to an adobe house near Taos, N.M., that has solar panels and soon a windmill to provide power. "There are so many things that can go wrong in Manhattan," he says. "[In Taos] I can control my environment." Near Boulder, Colo., Paloma O'Riley, an ex-Navy computer security specialist, has helped organize more than 200 groups nationwide through her Cassandra Project, an online Y2K advice network that gets half a million hits a month at its website.

And at the New York City Ballet, two relative beginners, Jenifer Ringer, 21, and Miranda Weese, 20, both just promoted to soloist rank, are darting through the difficult repertory and making it sizzle...

Born in Buenos Aires to a well-off family, when she came to the U.S. only four years ago to study at the School of American Ballet, she was distressed. Her training had been in the older, European style that called for careful poses. Says a teacher: "She was 15, dancing 35."
