...fall, when all the 90210 kids started their semester at California U., Tori's navel peeked out from under Barbie-style T-shirts that said things like "Hey Baby" or "Cool" on them.

After his death in 1978, Ed Wood got the last laugh: his films were rediscovered, first as camp and now as fodder for a light industry in cultural revisionism.

Hastening up to them, Newsted explained through a handy interpreter that she was a weaver of Angora fur and had been so taken with Ponomarenko and Klimova's performance that two of her rabbits now bore their names. In fact, here in her arms was Benjamin Sergei. It is difficult to describe the Soviet's expression, other than to say Ponomarenko blinked like a rabbit before smiling. "Thank...
...smocks or T shirts, and make rounds of wards. Retirement and nursing homes are welcoming pets too. The Tacoma Lutheran Home in Washington boasts a menagerie of furry and feathery live-ins. Some have aided in physical therapy. A stroke patient who had lost motor skills groomed an Angora rabbit; another worked on speech problems by talking to a cockatiel...
