...very much like a French chef's toque. The museum's mingqi extend through several short-lived kingdoms up to the Tang dynasty (618 A.D. to 907 A.D.). Some of these pieces are not much better than those found today in the backrooms of dealers on Hong Kong's Hollywood Road. Still, there are some truly remarkable treasures on show, like the Barbarian with Horn, a large sancai (three-color) glazed terra-cotta sculpture of an elaborately dressed man with bulging eyes, a handlebar moustache and full beard.

...Orleans. Have we not learned that nature is more powerful than man? Maybe the French Quarter can be saved, along with a small area around it. But let's give the rest back to nature and establish a reborn New Orleans farther from the Gulf Coast. Andy Rogow Hollywood, Florida, U.S. Instead of being rebuilt after the ravages of Mother Nature, New Orleans should be allowed to be covered by water and become a part of mythology, like the island of Atlantis.
