...Nobody at Cannes gives filmmakers a list of topics to address, so it is by sheer coincidence that another Eastern European movie, Andreü Zvyagintsev's The Banishment, also treats the topic of abortion. While on a stay in the countryside, a brooding woman tells her husband that she is pregnant, but not with his child. Crushed, the man insists she get rid of it. Their marriage, already strained, now splits at the seams, and everything tumbles into catastrophe. This tragedy is played out in beautiful settings and photographed with a graceful assurance, as if the world were blooming while...
...handful of galleries in town that spurns faux-traditional art adorned with the usual lotus blossoms and other Buddhist motifs, Ji-Qoo, tel: (66) 5389 4250, is run by husband-and-wife team Chatchawan and Satoru Nilsakul.

So, while politicians trade hard...

Good, with a background in restructuring small to midsize companies, founded Meridian in 1988 to do turnaround consulting, investment banking and mergers and acquisitions. Her partner (and husband of 32 years) Tom Von Lehman, a chemist by training, had managed a division at PPG Industries, the big Pittsburgh, Pa., glass and chemical company. He joined her at Meridian in the post-9/11 press of business to provide management expertise. She works with lenders to buy a company...
Margaret moved into the hospital with Julia; her husband Yves continued working back home in Maryland and commuted to New York City on weekends. Julia's hospital bills were about $350,000 annually. The Mikols quickly exhausted their medical insurance and had to rely on Medicaid. Caring for Julia at home would have been about $50,000 a year, but while the Federal Government would reimburse hospital care, it wouldn't cover the cost of caring for a child at home...
