Through the power of the Cubs' international superstation WGN, a concrete mixer of a television play-by-play man named Harry Caray is the team's singular star. Even in spring training, he is sprinkled throughout the game with mash notes from customers who stir excitedly in anticipation of their favorite part of the show, his seventh-inning sing-along. Outfielder Gary Matthews can verify that the Cubs' appeal extends at least to Belize, a Central American country of 150,000, which receives the cable and recently requested a live float ornament for its Cub Mardi Gras. "Only the Pope...
...grabbed my head to see if my hair was still there," said Art Hancock, Executive Vice President of Jack Daniel Distillery, theTennessee sour-mash whisky maker. "In the past two years, we have had so much adverse publicity about the effects of hard liquor, it is almost like having Prohibition back." His worry is premature. According to Gavaler, phytoestrogen is also prevalent in wheat, rice and hops, as well as peanut, soybean and olive...
...comedies still make up a considerable chunk of the network schedules-22 will be on next fall, compared with 24 last fall- the attrition rate has become alarming.

And equally likely, that sense of desperation will most likely backfire--if not in murder or child abuse, in more subtle, less blatant forms of hostility...
Livestock will also munch on cheese, potatoes, oranges, birdseed, beet pulp, cotton seeds, tallow, brewery mash and chocolate-chip cookies. "Pigs love chocolate. They really do," says Robert Easter, an associate professor of animal science at the University of Illinois. The mash, however, causes the swine to stagger drunkenly a bit at first. Some farmers have used such products for years, especially in times of drought. But some animal nutritionists say the use of alternative feed, though not widespread at all, has become more attractive in these hard economic times. With proper dietary balancing, the experts say, the animals will...
