...flashed a wonderful advertisement for dental hygiene. Indeed, said a Taiwan businessman, ''the Vietnamese would declare another war tomorrow and immediately declare themselves the losers if they could just get the Americans back.'' Venture capitalists were all over the place, maneuvering for the lifting of the embargo. A fellow from Wyoming, name of Irl, was trying to put together a golf resort here on China Beach, soon as the green light came from Washington. ''We want to put in hospitals as part of the development,'' Irl said. ''You don't want your tourists getting sick and dying.'' Irl said...
...rancorous debate among musicians and fans. If these rockers are stars now, fans ask, haven't they become everything we're against? Nothing better symbolizes the struggle for this musical genre's soul than the success of Pearl Jam, a band adored by followers but reviled by some fellow musicians as sellouts, poseurs or opportunists riding on the fame of their fellow Seattleites, Nirvana. Nirvana leader Kurt Cobain has said that bands like Pearl Jam are "jumping on the alternative bandwagon." Cobain and his crew have released a new album, In Utero, that is deliberately abrasive (three weeks after...
...Exiles took three years to make, as MacKenzie enlisted friends and fellow students from USC. (The movie's credits list five cinematographers and six editors.)

Dressed in slacks, a pink polo shirt and loafers, Lu chats casually with a string of visitors who drift in and out of his studio. Some are fellow artists and dealers from the community several thousand strong occupying the courtyards and alleys here in Songzhuang, in Beijing's eastern suburbs. The conversation ranges from gossip about colleagues through the sources of artistic inspiration to the merits of colleges in Australia, where Lu's son is studying. Later, Lu and I hop into his brand...
...York, if you don't fulfill your on-field expectations, they usually run you out of town. Bobby Murcer, who died on July 12 at the age of 62, didn't live up to his billing as the next Mickey Mantle, a fellow Oklahoma boy whom he succeeded in center field. Though a fine player and a five-time All-Star, Murcer never sniffed the Hall of Fame. Yet with his class, grace and a good ole Southern charm he shared with fans for 23 years in the broadcast booth, he was one of the most beloved Yankees...
