Fred W. McDarrah's collection of his photographs and prose pieces by various authors, Keronac & Friends: A Beat Generation Album, offers us a far more penetrating look into the 1950s Beat movement than the usual dose of Kerouac's On the Road of Ginsberg's "Howl" can afford...
Ordinally a disconcerting sight, a dose of Boy George in the morning is potentially deadly, a fact my mother was unaware of a month ago when she plopped the current issue of Harvard Magazine onto my stomach as I lay in bed recovering from New Year's Eve festivities. "Look what's on the cover," she said. "What," indeed. At least the contents behind that now-infamous cover of England's Best Advertisement for Fashion Euthanasia couldn't make me feet any worse than I was feeling already, so I took the plunge into "Androgynous Zones" by Peter Engel...
...meant as a soothing dose of diplomacy for a strife-torn territory--and an antidote to criticism at home. French President Francois Mitterrand last week made a sudden visit to the French Pacific-island territory of New Caledonia, where at least 18 people have been killed since November in an increasingly bitter struggle over independence.

A compact passing release is characteristic of his general economy of movement and thought. "Most quarterbacks have that high- arm action," Shula...
...bookcase. MacGruder & Loud goes through the cop-show motions, but the off-duty mush is clearly where its heart is set. You can't keep a good genre down. Reports of the sitcom's death, it turns out, were premature; all the genre needed was a healthy dose of adult writing, as proved by The Cosby Show, the new season's biggest hit. Enter Sara, a very adult sitcom about a single lawyer (Geena Davis) trying to make it on her own in San Francisco. The show is being touted as 1985's answer to the Mary Tyler Moore Show...
