Wearing flowing white ecclesiastical robes, the Rev. John Tietjen, leader of the Missouri Synod's breakaway liberal faction, delivered that bitter eulogy last week from a pulpit set up in an auditorium at the O'Hare Inn near Chicago. It was what his 1,600 listeners wanted to hear. They were members of Evangelical Lutherans in Mission (E.L.I.M.), a dissident group that has been warring openly with the conservative hierarchy of the 2.8 million-member denomination. Tietjen's lament for the church underlined the fact that the Missouri Synod's conservative leadership is now firmly...
...levels in both nonsmokers and smokers were the type of work, where it was performed, and the CO in the ambient air. Even nonsmoking taxi drivers in New York City had levels as high as 5.8% after a bumper-to-bumper day; workers at Chicago's O'Hare field registered 2.5%, at New York's Kennedy Airport 2.1%.

...this enveloping character of metamorphic fantasy that Miró responded. A painting like Landscape (The Hare) is its reduction: the horizon line drawn clean as a wire, yet with an irrational undular flourish; the absurd and soulful hare, like a creature from a comic strip. Its gaze is fixed on what appears to be a rifle ball, ricocheting in a spiral from the gun of a disembodied hunter. The color, too, is unique - the broad planes of earth and sky like a flag, interspersed by echoing flecks of red, or ange and yellow on the body of the hare...
