...even be allowed to make neurological decongestant ads or even be on welfare, one-two-threed his way into a state of protoplasmic regret when Bruno finished dicing him through the Great Steel Cage. He actually ripped Hanson's face off--yanked the pulpy flesh right off his doggone skull. Ex-transvestite. Hansen, whose eyes had long since disappeared to leave only streams of orange blood, mistook a kindly referree for his phantom foe. But he didn't even have the strength left to beat 165-er ref Bob Morgan. A happy day for justice, fans...
Moderate and liberal Republicans will meet informally in a location still to be decided next week to work out strategy for what some expect to be a tooth-and-nail fight with the conservatives. Michigan Governor William Milliken, who is organizing the skull session, believes that a takeover of the G.O.P.'s national machinery by the Reaganite right wing could only narrow the party's constituency; he argues that to survive nationally, the Republicans must broaden their base of support, as the party did in his state.

They demanded that he again be expelled and gave Prime Minister Seni Pramoj a deadline of Oct. 2 to act. The frail, silver-haired Seni, newly appointed to head yet another coalition, vacillated...
...paint that tilts upward, like a dun-colored flying saucer, from the bottom of Hans Holbein's 1533 double portrait of Jean de Dinteville and Georges de Selve, The Ambassadors. When squinted at edge-on, from the right-hand side of the frame, the smear turns into a skull. The illusion is startling: the rest of the painting disappears and the death's-head floats eerily in a greenish-brown blur. What Holbein meant by it is still a matter of debate among historians. Is it a comment on the vanitas of earthly possessions and power, the transience...
