...Royal Fireworks, which will also accompany the meteor shower of bombshells, flash reports, bombettes, pirouettes, Catherine wheels, saucissons, serpents and good old-fashioned detonations over Hyde Park on the wedding eve this week. Parker's field lieutenant is an intense 29-year veteran of Paines Fireworks Co., Roly Harrison, who admits that, when the time comes for ignition, the entire display is "essentially a one-man show." He leaves little doubt who that man is. "Roly is like an actor who goes onstage," explains John Decker of Paines. "He's the one who presses the buttons. If Roly...
...bulk of the money, surprisingly, came from New Mexicans, including $150,000 in construction aid from the state legislature. The festival producers won an early-and substantial-contribution from O'Keeffe, 93, the region's arbiter of artistic merit.

He has none of the arrogance of, say, a dashing pilot in a WWII film, or of his evil counterparts (good, as always, balks before prevailing). Instead, he is allowed...
Moments later, Paul McCartney and George Harrison, both 38, bounded down the steps and on to the reception at a private Mayfair club. Starr, using a pair of overturned champagne buckets as drums and with a little help from his two friends, staged an impromptu jam session. The poignant reunion came after the recording of All Those Years Ago, a musical tribute to John Lennon written by Harrison. It is due out in June as a single and will be a track on his new album. Somewhere in England. The cut was recorded with a pair of Wings...
