...Slow & Shallow. The Lamaze method is now taught in a dozen major U.S. cities, and even hospitals where doctors are not Lamaze disciples admit to weaving some of his and Dr. Dick Read's teachings into their obstetrics. Just about all big-city hospitals allow the husbands to be with their wives during labor (a Lamaze precept; it helps to relax the mother), and the most diehard anti-naturalists among obstetricians now recognize the value of prenatal education and exercise...

A crash helmet by Bell-Toptex Inc.'s Frank Heacox and Roy Richter becomes a more modern exoskull, whose transparent visor frees, yet protects, nose, eyes and jaw.

Yes, hope is only in him. Redemption is only...
TIVOLI GARDENS PLAYGROUND. The Danes are adept at entertaining children, and they take it seriously. Created by 13 of Denmark's top artists and architects, the playground is modeled after Copenhagen's. Kids can sail paper boats in shallow canals or swoop down a slippery slide into a sandbox, sit at tiny-tot tables and watch fireflies flit in the trees or play hide-and-seek in a maze with magic mirrors...
