...Harvard department or institution. What do these committees do? Well, they visit. They talk to students and faculty, bring in experts, and issue a report after it's all over. The Overseers do little else, except provide Harvard fund-raisers with a ready-made group to tap. Their president, Andrew Heiskell, is also chairman of Time, Incorporated...
...Lulu's patron, husband and prime victim, Bass-Baritone William Dooley mordantly conveys the opera's central drama of worldly power and rationality being ravaged by the primal erotic instinct.

Nancy Teeters moved up from her post as an economist...
...first royal tour, but Prince Andrew, 19, handled himself with the aplomb of a seasoned veteran. In Tanzania, on the first leg of a state visit, Andrew often competed with Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip for the attention of crowds. As hundreds of thousands of Tanzanians cheered the royal family in Dar es Salaam, one busty woman tried to seize Andrew's attention. Ignoring the words TAKE MY BODY emblazoned on her T shirt, he discreetly averted his gaze. Two teen-age girls got more of a rise from the prince by standing outside church on Sunday morning...
