Here's what's in the July.August  issue of PINK magazine:

The Women of Wal-Mart
America's largest company has run roughshod over competitors and critics in its controversial past. But lately, a kinder-sounding Wal-Mart is pushing for positive change. In the wake of criticism surrounding associate wages and benefits, the employer of 1.9 million is redefining its public image. Case in point: It granted PINK magazine unprecedented access to its top women. PINK asks, Can these key women at Wal-Mart save its corporate soul?

Mix Politics and Business?
Absolutely! Meg Whitman and Carly Fiorina are among the businesswomen who've figured out what male CEOs have known for years: Working politics is good for business. They get to do their civic duty while forging new networks. Meet some of the women who have plunged into the national political arena this year.

Million to Billion
Only 5 percent of the 7,500 companies that went public since 1980 have made it to $1 billion in revenue. Meet four women – from former supermodel Kathy Ireland to a sportswear mogul – whose companies have passed the billion-dollar mark. Learn their success secrets so you can make your own seven-step plan to 10 figures.

Spending Squeeze
As the headlines remind us daily, the free-spending money train has left the tracks. Prices are up, but the ample assets we had to cover ourselves during good times are disappearing. Home equity has dipped to its lowest level in more than 60 years, and abysmal savings rates have left dwindling cash reserves. Here's how to take action to survive the credit crunch.

Comebacks for Workplace Come-Ons
When the guys at work turn bawdy, it's time to make our boundaries known. Whether the right response to a tacky come-on is a lawsuit or a hilarious one-liner isn't always clear. PINK offers some help.
