This sensibilidad is changing the way America looks, the way it eats, dresses, drinks, dances, the way it lives. Latin colors and shapes in clothing and design, with their origins deep in the Moorish curves of Spain or the ancient cultures of Central and South America, are now so thoroughly mixed into the mainstream that their source is often forgotten. There seems to be a Taco Bell on every corner, Corona beer in every bar. The First Lady's preferred fashion designer, Adolfo, is Cuban. And out of the crossover into the mainstream come some curious hybrids: bolero jackets with...
Designated hatchet. His disdain for Dukakis is deep enough to make Ronald Reagan this campaign's perfect hatchet man. The President "is eager to do it," says a Bush aide. Last week he upped Bush's anti-Duke epithet "Brookline liberal" to "true liberal...
America has no shortage of first-rate Hispanic artists who work out of deep convictions about, and connections to, their Latin heritage -- artistic, religious and ideological. There are also mediocre ones who use their ethnicity as a lever to induce guilt in curators, if not dealers (who by now are guiltproof).

...cause for celebration, especially if the home team is losing. But when drops started falling in Kansas City last week as the Royals tried to catch the Chicago White Sox, 23,000 fans let out a rousing cheer. No wonder they were delighted to get wet. Missouri is deep in the heart of drought country: some 80% of its corn crop and more than 60% of its soybeans are in poor-to-very-poor condition. In Chicago the news that scattered showers were sprinkling the blistered Plains and Midwest created a near panic in the commodity pits as traders rushed...
