Pennywise, a brightly dressed clown, beguiles the young passers-by. The lucky ones elude the creature. The others are never seen again -- alive. This is obviously not your average Ringling Bros. fool with bulbous nose and orange sideburns. When it shucks off its costume, it resembles a spider. Or a crawling eye. Or a mummy.

Its permanent home is a far stranger dwelling: the mind of Stephen Edwin...
...scheme cannot be dismissed as just a pipe dream. Last month Gaddafi opened a plant at Brega, south of Benghazi, where some of the 73-ton pipeline sections will be made.

At 22 he went to work as a New York regional salesman for Abe Rivetz, a Boston necktie manufacturer. Lauren made the rounds of his Long Island wholesale customers dressed in tweeds and driving a British Morgan convertible. Pondering fashion trends as he traveled, he decided around 1964 that the men who wore the narrow ties of the early '60s were ready for a change to wider, more colorful designs. While Lauren was not a particularly...
...alternative to juvenile rock 'n' roll and formula pop. As much of rock has degenerated into pallid imitations of Led Zeppelin, and the wallets and midsections of the baby boomers have fattened with age, new vistas in pop music have opened up. Major labels such as Warner Bros. and CBS, which releases the recordings of Harpist Andreas Vollenweider, are issuing New Age recordings, and Gramavision has signed up New Age Musicians Steve Halpern and Kitaro...
