...series survived many traumas and changes, from the death of Co-Star Michael Conrad (who as Sergeant Phil Esterhaus opened each episode with its trademark roll call) to the 1985 departure of Steven Bochco, the show's co- creator, fired after reported disputes over cost overruns. Yet new characters (like Dennis Franz's choleric Lieut. Buntz) and continued good scripts (including one this season by Playwright David Mamet) injected fresh life. "This one never went downhill," says NBC Entertainment President Brandon Tartikoff. "It's like a ballplayer: you want to see someone go out a winner, like Sandy Koufax, instead...
Badanes clearly enjoys the joke. In fact, such irreverence is his group's trademark. Born at Princeton University during the counterculture days of the 1960s, the Jersey Devil is a traveling band of renegade architects who rejected standard careers to design the really far out and then, in an even more radical break with modern architectural practice, get out the saws, hammers and nails and build these unusual structures themselves. Since their first project, a child's play structure built to resemble an enormous cockroach, they've painstakingly assembled twelve houses, from San Francisco to New Hampshire, parking tents, trailers...

It is a virtuosic work that takes on a variety of ideas and stories, remaining engaging throughout its many facets. And still it attempts to go beyond its technical workmanship. It has a sympathetic message to deliver, revealed in the closing words: "More than to hug them, I want ... to talk to them ... and it could even be ... that we would understand each other...
...Pennsylvania Dutch winner that has been going strong for 45 years and that proved best among the 65 varieties tasted for this report. The jalapeno Charles Chips led all other seasoned types. For decades Charles Chips were delivered to homes in 40 states, always packed in the company's trademark mustard-colored cans; now they are sold in supermarkets in typical air-cushioned bags. In Ohio, the loyalty lines are drawn between chips made by two old local outfits: the good, blond wafers of Mike-sell's, produced in Dayton, and the more pallid, "marcelled" Ballreich product, from Tiffin...
