Astrology had a sheer mythy size, a consequence that could make Caesar or Lear look up to the heavens. The skies were full of promises and dangers. In February of 1524, Europeans lived in terror that a conjunction of all the planets in the watery sign of Pisces would bring a deluge...
...them. "There's no reason to stop eating eggs -- they are one of the most excellent sources of nutrition," says Dr. Dale Morse of the New York State health department. But, he stresses, eggs should be cooked, because heat destroys salmonella. Recipes that call for fresh raw eggs -- eggnog, Caesar-salad dressing and mayonnaise -- are out. (But packaged varieties of these foods are safe, because commercial producers use pasteurized eggs, which are not commonly available to consumers.) In addition, cracked eggs should be discarded and intact ones, cooked or raw, should never be stored at room temperature. Cooking must...
Noriega showed his defiance throughout the week. Hours after his troops arrested and beat protesters at a Panama City rally, soldiers and police burst into the lobby of the Marriott Caesar Park Hotel and seized 20 opposition leaders, who had scheduled a news conference, and twelve foreign journalists, including five Americans.

Murray Abraham (Oscar winner for Amadeus), Elizabeth McGovern (Ragtime, Ordinary People) and Carl Lumbly (TV's Cagney and Lacey...

The series focuses, wisely, on programming rather than the business of TV; still, somewhere amid the clips of Sid Caesar and Jackie Gleason and Playhouse 90, one longs for at least some discussion of how networks came into being. Nor is there much of a global perspective: despite a few glimpses of TV in Britain, Japan and elsewhere, the program offers no explanation of why TV developed so differently...
