It features a deliberately rather plain font of "OK" against a white background with a narrow red border; a sloppily drawn oval-headed fellow looks out quizzically from in front of a wall and a little box of a house capped with an aerial. The rather casual shabbiness of "OK" is a shameless bit of pandering to the idea of Generation X; evidently we are so fed up with the kaleidescopic self-promotion and colorful hype of Pepsi and Coke that we are helplessly susceptible to the soft-pedal...
...aerial bombings early in the week also miffed Moscow. "Air strikes," snapped President Boris Yeltsin, "must not be decided without preliminary consultations between the U.S. and Russia."

Each race was introduced by a recorded rooster's loud "cock-a-doodle...
Fearing that the Serbs may step up their assaults on Muslims, the Pentagon is rushing high-tech surveillance equipment to Bosnia. Several unmanned aerial vehicles -- drones that can be used for reconnaissance over trouble spots without risking planes and crews -- will be put at the disposal of U.N. forces...
