...merriest band of pass catchers: Vance Johnson, Mark Jackson and Ricky Nattiel. With Gerald Willhite among the fractured, honest workman Sammy Winder more or less constitutes Denver's running game (quarterback scrambles excluded). A lot depends again on the arm of Elway, though maybe also on the foot of Rich Karlis. If Karlis had made a couple of makable field goals in the first half of last year's Super Bowl, the game could have been much different. The Redskins' kicking game has been so shaky, Ali Haji-Sheikh and Jess Atkinson were still fighting for the job last week...

When the votes are all tallied and the goodbyes said and the clasps of work- thickened hands finished, the lingering flavor of the Iowa caucuses in the chill February night will be rich brownies and giant chunks of fudge mixed with laughter and hugs for neighbors and the silent thanks for the right to do what they have just done. The people of this down-to-earth state will have made the first significant declaration to the world about whom the American electorate has in mind to be the next President. Serious business...

Iowa keeps 93% of its rich loam in farms, the heritage of a century of building a special culture on that treasure. There are in Iowa eight cities with populations over 50,000 but none with more than 200,000. Crowding is almost nonexistent, and so the attendant evils of crime and hopelessness are minimal. The core of the population also has some link to those people who first halted on the tallgrass prairie and sank their plows. Writes Author John Madson, an eloquent native Iowan: "Grassland of such magnitude was wholly alien to the western European mind. It diminished...

...nothing less than a definitive survey of the nation's most pervasive and powerful communications medium. It is a venture rich with possibilities and fraught with pitfalls. TV has traded so wantonly in its past -- from documentary retrospectives on the so-called Golden Age to those proliferating "reunions" of old series -- that each new look backward has a tougher job justifying its existence. Dusting off the old kinescopes again is not enough. "All too often," Newman comments at one point, "television is an eye but not a brain." Unfortunately, the same is true of this briskly watchable but ultimately disappointing...

...safe with any of the above and shrimp in hot black bean sauce ($8.95). The latter is a very generous portion (a dozen large-to-middling size shrimps) in a sauce made complex by the addition of fermented black beans. The beans are the basis of a rich sauce of their own in Cantonese cookery. Here their aromas blend with the Szechwan bouquet in a way that I find very novel. Perhaps this is the "continental cuisine" of Taipei, where Chef Hou won his epaulettes at a major hotel...
