This predisposition made him a great painter of the nude, though undoubtedly a phallocratic one. One sees him at full stretch in Sleep, the painting of two life-size lesbians entwined on a bed. It proves the impossibility of distinguishing, at a certain level, between pornography and art. The painting has little to do with lesbian perceptions of sex: it is a seraglio scene, an enactment for men's eyes only. But despite the corniness of the flowers and pearls that allegorize Luxury, the creamy rose of those bodies, shadowed with olive and held within the complicated machinery...
...paper at least, Sajak, 42, has the right credentials. While growing up in Chicago, he used to sneak out of bed to watch Jack Paar and decided that doing a talk show "would be a fun way to earn a living."

August at the earliest, says the Department of Energy...
...American woman, troubled by fantasies of her lost child, walks out on her philandering oaf of a husband, whom she may have stabbed to death. An aging British novelist pilfers the life of his beautiful niece for the plot of his new book. Another novelist, strapped to a hospital bed with a grotesquely disfiguring skin disease, plots revenge on all those who have loved him not quite enough...
