Some requirements for cheerleaders haven't changed. They are still expected to be well-turned-out fashion plates, hair pulled into a tight ponytail, uniform just so. Tans--from a bottle or a tanning salon--are a must. "The girls have to be picture perfect," says Euless cheer sponsor Kelli McDaniel. Monica's mom Daphne Brigham keeps a sharp eye on her daughter at the S.M.U. camp, monitoring her for slips.--and, naturally, finds one. "Didn't we talk about this?" she asks Monica, pulling her aside for a wayward bra strap. "If your top is pink, your...

A distinct air of the salon, of the desire for a "major" utterance that leads to an overworked surface, clings to some of the early watercolors--in particular, the paintings of fisherfolk he did during a 20-month stay in the northern English coastal village of Cullercoats in 1881-82. Those robust girls, simple, natural, windbeaten and enduring, planted in big boots with arms akimbo against the elemental...
...tried to persuade me very convincingly that we must agree on something with you." Joked Gorbachev: "I asked them, 'Have you said the same words to the President when you met him?' and they assured me, 'Yes, in exactly the same words.'
