late Friday with a $68 per share bid for Mandalay MGM Mirage also would assume about $2 Mandalay Resort Group owns and operates 11 casinos in Nevada and has about 15,000 rooms on the Strip " Talks have been under way for the past few days, the source said "The combination of these two great companies would provide Mandalay shareholders with a premium price for their shares as well as providing several strategic benefits to shareholders in MGM Mirage," said Terri Lanni, chairman and CEO of MGM Mirage in Las Vegas 8 billion in debt Mandalay does not intend to make any further comment on this matter until it is finally resolved The combined companies would allow MGM Mirage to capture a broad swath of the market in Las Vegas and establish it as the industry's top gambling company,

and MGM Grand "I would guess you'll find universally cautious positions on sales figures and marketing budgets 95 "The fiction market in general has been very sluggish," says Jonathan Galassi, president and publisher of Farrar, Straus & Giroux Simon & Schuster, which released both the Clinton and Isaacson books, announced this week that 75 employees would be laid off com, anticipating tremendous competition for the Potter book, offered a 40 percent discount on the $29 " With more than 100,000 titles annually released in the United States, the industry doesn't sustain itself on high-profile books alone For publishing people, the value of books like "Living History" and "Order of the Phoenix" isn't only in the splash, but in the ripples While sales should be strong for the memoirs of former Secretary of State Madeline Albright and Toni Morrison's new novel, "Love," no fall releases are likely to sell in numbers approaching Potter "I think the slump probably started in the (2000) presidential election that wouldn't end " Big sales don't necessarily mean big profits, especially if everyone is expecting a hit In his company e-mail, Simon & Schuster's Romanos speculated that the decline was long-term, wondering if "book buyers will actually return in the same numbers" even after the economy recovers For an illustrated edition of the best-selling "Seabiscuit," now a movie, Random House reduced the price from $35 to $29 Other recent successes include Oprah Winfrey's book club pick, "East of Eden," and Walter Isaacson's "Benjamin Franklin " Other publishing officials are at best cautious about the next few months People are just preoccupied in all sorts of ways It's a hard conversation to have The industry had hoped the Potter boom would carry over to other titles, but most report either modest increases or none at all Once the boom receded, fundamental problems remained: a slow economy, a distracted public "I have as strong a list of books coming out over the next few months as I've had in a long time, but I'm not 100 percent confident it's going to translate into sales," says Morgan Entrekin, president and publisher of Grove/Atlantic, Inc " But instead of celebrating, publishers have been cutting " "It's harder for books to catch on," says Gary Fisketjon, a longtime editor at Alfred A Then you have Sept Knopf And Amazon Hyperion Books this fall will publish Lisa Kusel's story collection, "Other Fish in the Sea," as a paperback 11 and a constant war footing ever since The result: Despite more than 1 million sales worldwide, the online retailer announced it essentially broke even with "Order of the Phoenix Hillary Clinton's memoirs, "Living History," has sold more than 1 million copies com crash the fact remains that our industry continues to be challenged by any number of issues, including the most prolonged period of depressed sales in memory," Simon & Schuster CEO Jack Romanos wrote in a companywide e-mail , the U "I don't think there has been a book this year that really took the world by storm Scholastic, Inc "It's not a brand new day," says Laurie Brown, a vice president for sales at Harcourt Trade Publishers And that spring (2001) was the dot But more than halfway into 2003, no new literary novel has had any significant impact, despite books from Robert Stone, Norman Rush, Don DeLillo and Jane Smiley "I've been talking to the agent of one of my more important authors, a solid literary novelist "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix" has set sales records That's what it takes, something that lights people up " Publishers are already experimenting with cutting hardcover prices, or skipping hardcover altogether and releasing books in cheaper paperback editions It also needs steady sales of older titles and surprise hits like Alice Sebold's million-selling novel, "The Lovely Bones Publishers Cut Staff, Despite Huge Sales Jul 25, 2:28 PM EST This should be a great time for the book world publisher of the Potter books, announced in May that 400 employees had been fired worldwide and said that in mid-July there would be additional spending reductions S With Clinton receiving an $8 million advance, Simon & Schuster needed hundreds of thousands of sales to make money on the book " 99 suggested price I had to tell the agent that I couldn't pay his client as
