...This summer the Hale family moved to a 300-acre development in Chapel Hill, N.C., called Southern Village. Here, as in other neotraditional neighborhoods, residents accept smaller lots than they might find elsewhere, in return for shared amenities like parks and day care, and a livable scale to things. Conveniences like a dry cleaner and cafe are but a stroll away in the village center. Southern Village's public elementary school sports a columned red brick facade and gabled roof. The homes, built in a variety of styles, from Charleston single to Georgian town house, have porches reaching...

...lure. This minimalist horror film, which appears to be a self-filmed documentary of three filmmakers who get lost in the Maryland woods while tracking down a local witch legend, has become the Elvis, the E.T., the Pet Rock of 1999--the hottest item in a hot summer. Shagadelic--what's that? Jar Jar Binks--remind me. Ricky Martin--isn't he Dino's kid?

While Action could be the best fall comedy in an anemic field, and Mohr plays...

...supplements were movies, SAMe would be the sleeper hit of the summer. Introduced in the U.S. in March, it is now the fourth most popular individual supplement in drugstore chains and general retail outlets.

...about all we're likely to hear this campaign from either of his 17-year-old twins BARBARA and JENNA. As granddaughters of a President, they are already monitored by the Secret Service, which has asked the campaign to skimp on the details of how the pair spent the summer. That's fine with the potential First Twins. "They're not big into campaigning," says spokeswoman MINDI TUCKER. While STEVE FORBES has enlisted his four daughters, Bush, who worked for his father's campaigns, is following the Clinton model used to shield Chelsea. It's one area in which...
