...fuel. Says she: "We don't use the stuff." For the past six winters, Medina and her husband have made do with the 60° to 65° provided by a fireplace, southern exposed windows, weather stripping and heat from surrounding apartments. Says she: "We discovered the layered look in clothing long before it was in fashion, but we're healthy, our plants seem to flourish and our cats grow pelts like minks...
...those really be mere college students who are holding 50 Americans hostage at the U.S. embassy in Tehran? The suspicion that they are instead seasoned militants is reinforced nightly when newscasts show armed men outside the embassy who look more like combat soldiers, an impression both accurate and misleading. The men in dark green fatigues are not students: they are members of the Pasdaran, the Islamic revolutionary guard.

Joseph's family has come down in the world, its ancestral wealth having been snatched from it by greedy King Herod. Joseph has been an anti...
...quest for the presidency. Speaking cosmetically rather than politically, however, Chicago's Democratic Mayor Jane Byrne really is. The Windy City's feisty mayor is given to impromptu press conferences at which she appears without television makeup. Embarrassed by the bags beneath her eyes that looked particularly heavy under bright TV lights, Byrne, 45, slipped into a hospital over Thanksgiving for a facelift. Reappearing in public last week, the mayor said nothing about her operation but was unperturbed when photographers rushed to record her new, more youthful look...
