...u.C.L.A. researchers have reported that herpes viruses can live on towels for up to 72 hr. and on toilet seats for at least four. In one test, a seat used by a woman with thigh lesions showed live herpes viruses 90 min. later. But most doctors down-play the U.C.L.A. study. Dr. Harold Kessler of Rush Presbyterian-St. Luke's, in Chicago, says herpetics should use their own towels, though the chances of passing on the infection via a towel are only about 1%. The virus dies so fast on a toilet seat, he says, that the risk of infection...
...min. documentary, which took 15 months and about $275,000 to prepare, was primarily the work of two people: Producer-Director-Writer George Crile, who also conducted several on-camera interviews, and Consultant Sam Adams, a former CIA analyst who was paid $25,000 to research and help shape the piece, yet who also appeared on air as a principal witness for the conspiracy theory. Crile and Adams had teamed to publish a story in Harper's magazine in 1975 along similar lines. Their CBS documentary, as Sauter's memorandum in effect conceded, let every "judgment call...
...lady mouse Mrs. Brisby, enlists the rats' aid to save her family from imminent death; she falls down a hole and into a world of effulgent psychedelia. The Bluth artists boast that more than 600 colors were used in the 1.5 million drawings that compose this 82-min. adventure. The eye of a Douanier Rousseau might discern each hue; others can simply open their eyes, and their mouths, in appreciative pleasure...
...that only when I looked down and saw the floor did I know that we had done the trick." Actually, what the Flying Vazquezes accomplished together on July 10 in Tucson was much more than a trick. It was an athletic feat equivalent to the breaking of the 4-min. mile: the first quadruple somersault performed before a regular circus audience...
...child and recalls, "I just wasn't ready emotionally for braces." Years later, looking at a family photograph, he noticed that even as an adult he was holding his mouth "very strangely" in order to cover his malaligned teeth. Last October a dentist spent 1 hr. 45 min. fitting Nottingham with braces. Two weeks later his teeth were wired. "Within 60 days, there was a tremendous amount of difference," says Nottingham, whose 18-to 24-month treatment will cost $3,000. "I'm seeing an aesthetic and a health difference." The one thing that nobody is seeing-even...
