1. Cheers

As if the war in the gulf hasn't provided enough explosive images, you can find still more at the local video store, where shoot 'em up/blow 'em up is the disorder of the day and Die Hard 2 won't. The title characters in Navy SEALs can't match our real troops, but they're faring much better on the small screen than they did last summer on the big one.... Judging by book sales, what's most on America's mind after the war is money—specifically, the fear of not having enough. Which means more for economist Charles J. Givens, who holds two spots on the nonfiction best-seller list.... And in Hollywood, silence (Lambs version) remains golden.
