...sport the fresh, "natural" look of the career woman, by using a dozen shades and tints, from eye liner to translucent lip gloss, all supposed to make her appear as if she were wearing no makeup at all. Then, in the evening, she can switch to smoky mauve eye shadow and dark red lipstick touched with midnight blue, calculated to give her a mysterious aura that will stand out under disco lights and smite her dancing partners with an advanced case of Saturday Night Fever...
...only to prowl the stores to find out why. At Bloomingdale's in Manhattan last week, a blue-jeaned young woman sat at the counter being made up by a saleswoman while her husband watched eagerly. She hesitated at first when the bill for her face makeup?eye shadow, foundation, mascara, liners, lip pencils?came to $42.

The decision caused confusion among doctors and the public, and prompted at least one newspaper, the New York...
Neil Young has spent over a decade writing finely shaded, sometimes frighteningly intense personal music that dances right around the edges of Dylan's long shadow. Young, a firm Dylan loyalist, also has a new record out, Comes a Time, and last week he completed his most extensive tour in years. Dylan continues on a three-month barnstorming blitz, playing St. Paul in his home territory of Minnesota this week. Earlier both converged on New York City at the same time. Young played to wildly partisan crowds, while Dylan kept his audience at arm's length and flummoxed...
