...gets an inspiration for a story about two bodies turning up in a small Texas town. One is black, one white. Locke writes a fresh, clean drama about racial stereotypes and her belief that being black is easier in the South than in the North. It becomes her ticket to Sundance, and almost as soon as she drops her bags, two black professional actors--Alice and Lindo--tell her she doesn't know anything about the black experience they know...

Third, only one company has ever really competed against Cisco hand to hand without getting crushed--Ascend, which just got bought by Lucent. If you insist on a Cisco relative, Lucent, an East Coast rival, might be the ticket...

But Delta acknowledged Wednesday that it may be squeezing that penny a little too hard ? or simply miscalculating the no-show rate. New software that was supposed to fix that has apparently been delayed. But Delta also may have been right in suggesting that a few thousand bumpings do not a hated airline make. When it came to overall passenger complaints, Delta had the second-best record...
