...would like to see the same thing happen to gun lovers and their firearms. It won't be that easy. Nice little signs in restaurants saying NO SHOOTING wouldn't exactly do it. But we should have a real goal for the 3rd millennium: a zero-tolerance campaign against violence, guns, cruelty and drugs. MARINA MASCETTI Genoa, Italy...
Welcome to Troubleland. Orlando, the mecca of mega theme parks, may have too much of a great thing. With seven large parks on the ground and more on the way, industry analysts are issuing dire warnings: "Orlando is now a zero-sum game," says Curt Alexander, an analyst with Media Group Research. "There will be bloodletting of biblical proportions." The theme-park glut promises bargains for consumers but a brutal shakeout that could pound the earnings of park owners Disney, Seagram (Universal) and Anheuser-Busch (Busch Gardens, Sea World...
What is new is this: as the century turns to double zero, a new generation of Latin artists, nurtured by Spanish radio, schooled in mainstream pop, are lifting their voices in English.

Zane (Titanic) makes a stalwart Roman general (and so does Timothy Dalton as Caesar), but pretty, pouty Varela lacks utterly the "infinite variety" that Shakespeare attributed to history's most famous vamp...
...most important conclusion to draw from the study is that a rising PSA level after treatment is not necessarily a death warrant. Whenever the prostate is surgically removed (or destroyed by radiation therapy), the PSA level should fall to zero. So unlike the more ambiguous pre-operation tests, any increase in PSA levels after surgery almost always means that some tumor cells have escaped and are growing elsewhere in the body. Prostate cancer usually grows so slowly, however, that patients often die of something else before its spread becomes noticeable...
