...turns out, Larson also left behind a children's mini-musical that he co-wrote with composer Bob Golden. Titled Away We Go!, the half-hour songfest--a youngster's travelogue of Manhattan--originally aired on the Learning Channel and has just been released on video. The host of the musical, which is conceived for two- to eight-year-olds, is a shabby-looking puppet named Newt who takes a young boy and girl for taxi, bus and ferry rides throughout the city...
...chief congressional architects of Reagan's 1981 tax cuts, Kemp opens a direct channel in voter memory to the era of good feeling that was early Reaganism. Though not identified with the controversial Christian wing of the party, he also has the longtime pro-life credentials to satisfy them. Originally from California, he polls well in that crucial state, where Dole is trailing Clinton by 25 points...
...restful introspection coupled with an underlying sense of urgency. On April 29, 1992 (Miami), the band combines an itchy ska beat with a kind of enlightened gangsta-rap attitude to capture the incendiary, anarchic mood on the streets during the nationwide Rodney King uprisings.

Every evening at six o'clock, local teenagers and anyone else who feels like listening (regardless of their predominately atheistic beliefs) crowd a Catholic church on Broadway, right in the middle of the gay district, to watch a choir...
...system will almost certainly improve. Microsoft and NBC have vowed to pump $80 million to $100 million a year into the venture, and the channel has access to all of NBC's news-gathering resources. Its chief problem is distribution. MSNBC is carried so far in 22.5 million cable homes, a record number for a start-up cable channel, but still far behind CNN's 68.5 million. (CNN is owned by Turner Broadcasting, which is in the process of merging with Time Warner, parent company of TIME.) And a new competitor from Fox, due in October, won't make life...
