...Logue)--a deliriously wild spectacle that is one of this show's unforgettable moments. In this scene, Raphael also reminds us of Orton's message that we are all guests in this camp by having the two couples start off sitting in the audience. Wisely, Raphael keeps the pace fast and furious and never lets the audience off this roller coaster ride of a show...
...Holly Goodhead! They were as indispensable and interchangeable as 007's other accessories, the Walther PPK and the Aston Martin. Pussy Galore might be a judo expert who could toss Bond like a crepe, but he would merely toss back a wolfish double entendre: "We must have a few fast falls together some time."

And the scenes depicting the building and activation of Robocop combine humor with a biting commentary on modern...
Talbott and his co-authors conclude that mental illness and substance abuse must be treated concurrently. When that happens, preliminary data indicate, suicide attempts and psychotic episodes rapidly decrease. Even so, there are no hard and fast rules for treatment. "Sometimes the chemical dependency is paramount, and you can't get to the psychiatric disorder until you come to grips with the addiction," says Dr. Robert Morse, director of addictive- disorders services at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., one of the few centers with an established track record. "Sometimes it's just the opposite...
