...used to be an oleaginous mulch that clogged the incisors at movie theaters. Today, like pasta, pizza and the humble potato, popcorn has gone gourmet. Or, at least, wild. Now, with a few of the dozens of new flavors available, it is possible to have an entire dinner composed of popcorn. After the cocktail hour (piña colada flavor with sour-cream-and-onion popcorn for hors d'oeuvres), the finger-fed meal features New England-clam-chowder popcorn, barbecue popcorn for entrees, fruit salad composed of strawberry, grape and cantaloupe popcorn and, for dessert, chocolate-fudge popcorn...

It is assumed, but not proved, that Andropov spent his formative political years in Karelia, on the Finnish border. What he did during World War II is also sketchy. Presumably, Andropov was involved in the bitter fighting at Leningrad, but there is no public record...
...Associate Editor George Russell, who wrote the story, the subtleties of Mexico's complex national character had a familiar flavor. As TIME'S Buenos Aires bureau chief from 1979 to 1981, Russell got a first-hand education in Latin American culture. He was also the writer of some half a dozen cover stories on the Falklands war between Argentina and Britain Russell, born in Canada, was particularly conscious of Mexico's status as a next-door neighbor...
