...Kvitsinsky, the threatened "consequences" of NATO missile deployment would occur with the arrival "on the continent of Europe" of "short-flight-time" systems on the periphery of the Soviet Union. His statement implied that collapse of the talks would occur only after West Germany had acquired its first complement of Pershing II missiles, which require twelve to 13 minutes to reach the Soviet Union (vs. several hours for a ground-launched cruise missile). The Soviets have always objected to the Pershing IIs more than the cruise missiles, not only because the ballistic Pershing IIs are faster but because the Soviets...
...this production. Warner lets his imagination go wild. He uses dozens of bizarre, totally unexpected props to complement his players' fine interpretation of the lines--from the very first scene, with leaping figures dancing to calypso music to the last, in which the characters wear BVD's and very short t-shirts. Immediately upon entering the theater, in fact, the audience is aware that this is no straight, classical production of Shakespeare's text.

The costumes, which range from the several green aforementioned t-shirts to cheerleader costumes, beautiful long gowns, and red overalls complement the music, which continues during and in between scenes and ranges from classics to jazz to rock 'n roll to highly progressive synapse next songs.

...backbone of U.S. strategic defense is our land based missile system. Ideally, a complement to our nuclear capabilities in sea and air, such a system should be defensive in nature, accurate and powerful enough to assure destruction of Soviet targets, impossible to defend against once launched, invulnerable to a soviet first strike and low cost. Our present system of land based Inter Continental Ballistic Missiles (ICBMs) has long been recognized as grossly inadequate. Ironically, this system of land based Minutemen will be superseded by an even more deficient nuclear weapon system, the Missile Experimental...
BOSTON--The Boston Red Sox, hunting for left handed hitting to complement held handed sluggers Jim Rice. Tony Armas and Dwight Evans, courted veteran Bruce Bochte yesterday after picking three lefty swingers in major league baseball's free agent reentry draft...
