...characters in B.C., the Stone Age comic strip created in 1958 by Johnny Hart, made readers laugh by pondering naively the wonders of fire, stone and the wheel. (A prehistoric dictionary defines rock as "to cause something to swing or sway--by hitting them with it!") More controversial were the religious panels Hart occasionally drew after he converted to evangelical Christianity. A 2001 Easter strip of a menorah slowly transforming into a cross led several newspapers, including the Los Angeles Times, to drop B.C.

...guise. He has become chairman of the board of trustees of the PDP, and from that position he could control nominations for government positions and even policy and strategy.

...pastels for those who want to capture that exact shade of sand (golden, ocher or russet, depending on the time of day). A dedicated field guide, one of three staff assigned to each suite, helps you choose activities, from falconry to horseback riding to nature walks. The four-wheel desert drive is a must for all but the most queasy - the dunes are high and the incline steep - and the late afternoon camel trek, perfectly timed to watch the sun sink into the sand, shouldn't be missed. Even after a few days in the desert...
