Unfortunately, ministrokes are greatly underdiagnosed. A study conducted for the National Stroke Association indicates that 2.5% of all adults age 18 or over (about 4.9 million people in the U.S.) have experienced a confirmed TIA. An additional 1.2 million Americans over the age of 45, the study showed, have most likely suffered a ministroke without realizing it.

Relic Hunter, starring Wayne's World's Tia Carrere as a female Indiana Jones, is produced by France's Gaumont Television and Canada's Fireworks Entertainment.

"We skate the line of historical frolic," says Carrere, delivering a line she'd never get to say on the show. "What I like is if there are children...
JOHN TRAVOLTA last week finalized plans to bring Scientology founder L. RON HUBBARD's sci-fi novel Battlefield Earth to the big screen. Travolta's longtime manager-producer JONATHAN KRANE says the new deal calls for small indie Franchise Pictures, run by L.A. club owner and actress Tia Carrere's husband Elie Samaha, to finance the production. Distribution is planned via Franchise's ties to fellow indie Morgan Creek, whose movies are handled by Warner Bros. Krane adds that ROGER CHRISTIAN, a filmmaking protege of GEORGE LUCAS', is directing the summer '99 shoot, and Patrick Tatopoulos, who designed creature effects...
