...Wink, Phil Stanton and Matt Goldman, spent the first couple of months appearing in the show themselves (a whole cadre of new Blue Men have taken over in the group's three other companies), and seem unfazed by their encounter with the schlock-entertainment capital. It was Penn and Teller years ago who first suggested that the Blues take their show to Vegas. But they didn't seriously consider it until they began developing new material that needed a larger stage. "Vegas is a place that reinvents itself every six years," says Wink. "We like the idea of being part...

Indeed, far from killing record companies, the Internet is spawning even more of them. "I don't believe that having 30,000 songs by any number of unknown artists is what the average consumer is excited about," says Al Teller, the former head of CBS Records and MCA Music Entertainment Group. Last year Teller founded an Internet record label based in Santa Monica, Calif., called Atomic Pop, which has released albums by Chuck D and Ice-T; they can be purchased from Atomic Pop's website in the form of a CD or a downloaded file. The musicians keep half...

...once seemed impossible, but another giant has been toppled. In Syracuse, N.Y., the last survivor of the Bonwit Teller department store chain, whose flagship store once graced Fifth Avenue, officially went out of business Monday.

...Year's Eve, Pasadena, Calif. Then, for four months, the film will be shown only on the gigantic screens in 75 IMAX theaters. (Our advice to moviegoers: sit in the back!) And to camouflage a high-art stigma, F2K employs genial onscreen hosts: Bette Midler, Quincy Jones, Penn & Teller and, best of all, Steve Martin in his suave-idiot mode, to introduce Itzhak Perlman, "who, I have just been informed, plays the violin...

Consumers have come to believe that automated teller machines should distribute cash. Banks believe that ATMs should collect some too--say, a $1.50 bite out of each cash withdrawal at a bank where you're not a customer. And that's just the first bite, because often when you make such a withdrawal, two banks can get into your wallet. The combined ATM fees can reach $3.50 or more. Such sums have now sparked a nationwide legislative brawl over profitable ATM surcharges...
