...what is not part of NATO's defense role. But as a NATO diplomat in Bonn noted, "We are in an emotionally charged situation." Nowhere more so than at Ramstein, where the blackened remains of the Italian jet lay crumpled late last week amid abandoned picnic tables, uneaten potato salads and indelible memories of nightmare...
...piroshki, which he nestles on an herbaceous bearnaise sauce; roast breast of pheasant with Swiss chard and a mellow stew of apples and pears; and roseate medallions of venison with wild mushrooms and a cream-lightened game sauce. Only the spaetzle are too dry, and the classic Swiss potato pancake, roesti, lacks the , characteristic crispness. Nearby is the stunning Milanese postmodern setting at La Grotta.

Like many another wide-eyed couch potato, I had eagerly awaited each weekly episode of Joseph Campbell and the Power of Myth. Bill Moyers' series of interviews on PBS with the late Professor Campbell, one of the world's reigning experts on mythology, was fascinating stuff, if you're really into fertility cults, purification rites and the like.

Airvision Inc., a joint venture...
Reagan is also a preacher -- or, perhaps, a traveling salesman. He believes that the mashed-potato circuit, and now the caviar circuit, is made for hustling. He came to Moscow firm in his intent to discuss human rights rather than wrestle with the details of arms control. And discuss he did. Partly this reflected his need to burnish his hard-nosed conservative credentials back home: there was worry that he seemed more glowing in his endorsements of Gorbachev than of George Bush. But mainly it was because Reagan enjoys being a missionary and a teacher...
