Some of the kids seemed to enjoy cooperating with each other, one fitting the fuschia head of one fish onto the body of a red one for his sister, but another eight-year-old was more self-absorbed and screamed "gimme that fishing pole!" while swinging another in the air near the waterfall washtubs...
...much the same set by the same actors. The high point is Cymbeline, with its Spielbergian supernatural touches (ghosts appearing in dreams, Jupiter descending from the heavens) and robust battles. In one chilling scene, two panels of the back wall bang open to reveal opposing armies about to pour onto the stage. The most impressive coup de theatre, however, belongs to Star Tim Pigott-Smith, a specialist in complex villains.

...Hammadi listened calmly last week as a prosecutor read the charges against him. Hammadi is accused of participating in the 1985 hijacking of a TWA Boeing 727 and the killing of U.S. Navy Diver Robert Stethem, 23, who was savagely beaten, shot in the head and then thrown onto the tarmac at Beirut airport.

Ofelia Montejano, 30, an up-and-comer in the Los Angeles fashion world, weaves her favorite colors -- fuchsia, chartreuse and orange -- into her fabrics with yards of colored ribbon sewn onto black taffeta. "Using bright colors this way draws on my heritage," she says. "When I was a girl in Michoacan, Mexico, I admired the way even the poorest people made use of color. They take raw color and use it in a very honest...
