Much of the debate has been sidetracked by the old question of who will represent the Palestinians. At a meeting with President George Bush in Washington last week, Mubarak proposed a dozen Palestinians who could take part in a conference in Cairo, including a few who had been expelled from the West Bank. P.L.O. Chairman Yasser Arafat reportedly indicated that he would go along with Mubarak's suggestion...
...print number. To be sure, it has always been O.K. for mainstream dreamers to be tigresses in private: catty underwear remains a steady seller. Now, after a drab decade of swathing for success in somber tones, slender stripes and severe lines, it seems that women are once again letting part of it, at least, hang out in pseudo-animal skins that have a kind of tacky charm -- or, as Bruce Binder, Macy's Northeast Fashion Director, puts it, "vulgar chic...
...another thing, the animal-rights movement, having attacked the fashion industry for its use of real animal skins, has, in part, boosted the new fad by encouraging designers to play with the unreal thing in their lines. Designer Christian Lacroix's fringed panther-print polymid shawl ($470) is hot stuff.

Officials were less successful in keeping the lid on demonstrations outside the capital: in Dresden and Leipzig violent clashes...
...woman nods, getting the point, laughing. Her classmates laugh, and Braden joins in. Laughter, in fact, is an essential part of the curriculum at the tennis college, where every year several thousand adults take three-to- five-day courses that cost $100 daily. It erupts regularly from the classroom during Braden's unique lectures, which combine show biz, science, humor and psychology. It rings out on the 17 courts and the 18 teaching lanes equipped with ball machines -- and in the four video rooms, where students guffaw as they view tapes of their own just completed drills. Even...
