...Worth had to do something. When founder Randy Jones sold his share of it in 2003, its circulation was 500,000. It finished last year with about 50,000. The subscription rate listed on its website is $36. (Subscribe now and save $84 on the cover price!) And only 3% of its copies were newsstand sales, so it's not like that was a big business anyway. Sandow Media Corp., which bought Worth last year, also publishes Luxe (high-end design), True Beauty (high-end cosmetics) and Watch Journal (high-end wristwear). So the company probably feels...

...Hong Kong, it can be hard just finding somewhere to sit down. The fourth most densely populated place in the world, the city sees its park benches packed while strangers share restaurant tables. And for the 40,000 people who die there every year, it turns out there's no respite from the crowds either. While land shortages forced most Hong Kongers to abandon burials in the 1980s, now the city has run out of space even for cremated ashes. By some estimates, around 50,000 families are presently storing their relatives' remains in funeral homes while they wait, perhaps...
