...door coupe that resembles Chevrolet's 1989 Geo Storm, as well as pictures of a four-door sedan that Automobile Magazine said "could fit right into Oldsmobile's lineup." The magazine added that Saturn's mechanical features, also leaked from within GM, were not "particularly innovative." With advance notices like that, GM might do well to devote as much energy to Saturn's continued improvement as to the search for the culprit who leaked its photos...
RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR. Like its Rockefeller Center neighbors -- a towering fir tree and a glistening ice rink that displays the endlessly watchable gyrations of amateur skaters -- this New York City bring- the-family pageant is one of the grandest holiday traditions in the U.S. Satisfyingly the same from year to year, yet spruced up just enough, the fast- moving script mingles Charles Dickens, Santa Claus and Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker with carols and hymns. The climactic Nativity scene features camels, donkeys and other live animals. This year's production serves up dazzling special effects and opulent costumes...
LINDA RONSTADT: CRY LIKE A RAINSTORM, HOWL LIKE THE WIND (Elektra/Asylum). Ronstadt takes lessons learned from her three successful albums of pop standards and puts them to work on the kind of material she did so well in the '70s: confessional ballads and songs of love gone amiss. The cathedral- filling orchestral arrangements threaten the fragile structure of some songs, but Ronstadt's singing (superbly accompanied on four tracks by New Orleans soulster Aaron Neville) keeps everything on course...
...their skill at finding and analyzing such bizarre objects as black holes, neutron stars and quasars, astronomers have so far failed to solve one of the most basic mysteries of the cosmos: What does the universe look like? The heavens appear just as two dimensional through powerful modern telescopes as they did to the eyes of the ancient Greeks, and until recently, no one could say for sure whether the myriad galaxies were organized in some meaningful way. Astrophysicists are fiercely competing to discover how the universe evolved into its present structure, but they cannot test their theories until they...
...walls of the bubbles are galaxies, and the interiors appear to be virtually empty. Most surprising of all is a feature Geller and Huchra call the "Great Wall" -- a sheet of galaxies at least 200 million light-years wide, 500 million long and perhaps 15 million thick. It looks like a single structure, but the scientists say it may instead be made up of the walls of adjacent bubbles. Says Geller: "Because it runs off the edge of our survey, we don't know how big it really...
