Reply to Buck's review of 'Human Facial Expression: An Evolutionary View.' (response to Ross Buck, p. 393, this issue)
Article Abstract:
Ross Buck's assertion that the book 'Human Facial Expression: An Evolutionary View' has no room for emotion-based theories is correct. This is because it was written to forge a link between human communications research and the biology of animal signaling, an approach that is consistent with the paralinguistic ideas of pure communications theories. However, Buck missed these and other important points pertaining to facial neurology, inhibition and the definition of emotion.

All buckled up with no place to go
Article Abstract:
Northwest Airlines Inc was forced to cancel a flight in Minnesota on Dec 26, 1999, after the aircraft and its 101 passengers were forced to wait on the tarmac for more than three hours due to adverse snow and ice conditions. While the company denies violating its 'Customers First' policy commitment, passengers on the cancelled flight say they were not offered food or beverages during the wait, nor the airline's new 'service recovery kit.'

Mercer compensation survey published in the Wall Street journal revealed the millions of dollars received by CEOs like Robert E. Allen and Philip B. Fletcher. Millions in stock options were also given. The trend raises questions regarding the need for stricter government rules on compensation.
