...Predock building is strikingly different from the next. In La Jolla, Calif., his university theater is to have a 27-ft.-high mirror appended to the front. And a western-memorabilia museum at the University of Wyoming will be a stone cone, suggesting a Teton or a tepee. His lack of a signature style is born of a faith in the uniqueness of each project. Predock believes that if he contemplates the client's requirements and experiences the site intensely enough, the right building will emerge. "This is an adventure," he explained to a couple who asked him to design...
Iowa's winners. On that heady morning of Feb. 9, they could have been excused for addressing themselves in the mirror as "Mr. President." Bob Dole and Dick Gephardt had just won the Iowa caucuses (remember them?) and had every reason to expect a surge that would carry them to their nominations. But the glow did not survive Super Tuesday, and last week they bowed to the inevitable and quit the race. More than 3,000 reporters covered the Iowa campaign. In the end it turned out to be less important than the Michigan Democratic caucuses, for which nary...
...longer ginger, but he is still taking photographs for TIME. Rubinger, 63, has captured so much of his country's history on film that this week's cover story on Israel and its 40th anniversary is illustrated almost entirely with his work.

...noise is justified. This book will not make anyone forget One Hundred Years of Solitude, and thank goodness for that. Instead, Garcia Marquez, 60, * offers a spacious mirror image of the novel that made him famous. This time out, surface events largely conform to the dictates of plausibility. No one ascends bodily into heaven; the famous plague of insomnia that swept through Solitude here becomes literal, recurrent ravages of cholera morbus. The bizarre and outlandish are relegated to the domain of private lives, to characters who must construct for themselves elaborate fictions to follow in order to stand the shocks...
...like a Twilight Zone set, Wappingers Falls (pop. 5,000) has become the scene of a netherworld nightmare, a place where reality seems as distorted as a fun-house mirror. Last Nov. 24 Tawana Brawley, a 15-year-old black girl, got off a bus on Route 9 and disappeared. Four days later the onetime cheerleader was found in a daze, crawling into a garbage bag in the backyard of her family's former apartment complex. Her hair was crudely cropped, her body smeared with dog feces, her chest inscribed in charcoal with the letters KKK and the word NIGGER...
