...itineraries of our favorite secret agent and his targets - Italy, England, Austria, Haiti, Bolivia - will remind you of the geographic restlessness on display in Syriana, Body of Lies and other war-on-terror spy capers.

...pain is hitting real estate too. Hamptons realty agent Rick Hoffman of Corcoran says his market usually gets an infusion of Wall Street money this time of year - thanks to the bonus payouts - but he isn't expecting a pickup in slow sales anytime soon. He says he is seeing the weakest prices in years on the east end of Long Island, where Wall Streeters have traditionally bought their weekend homes.
