...used to take her fingers from her face and tell her, 'This is Mom. This is Planet Earth. This is today, and you need to brush your teeth,'" recalls Natasha Kern, a Portland, Ore., literary agent who identified her daughter Athena's troubles early on. These are the kids who get expelled from nursery school for disrupting every story circle and demolishing every Lego tower. Parents despair at seeing their children sad or lost or cast out; they hate themselves when they lose their tempers after the sixth meltdown of the day. These kids can be very bright, very charming...
...eggs include dozens of embryos--the first to be unearthed anywhere in the southern hemisphere (and an exponential jump in the existing worldwide inventory of only five specimens). What's more, the beautifully preserved bits and pieces include tiny (about a tenth of an inch long), pencil-shaped teeth and mosaics of precise, miniature, lizard-like scales.

Lieutenant Munoz (RodrigoCharazo) was a favorite as the figure of dissent,with his deceptively sunny but really acid piece"All You Have to Do is Wait." It is with "Funny,"towards the end of the show, that Roulleau finallysinks his teeth into Stine and shows some fire inthe eye. However, this is not really a failingwhen playing a character which is generally staidand less than exciting. Berwick, for all hisskulking, doesn't damage his sullen machismo whensinging in the steady but aching tone of aninjured romantic. Bogart would never have gottenaway...
