...British display of 2 grit. Prime Minister Thatcher visited wounded members of the Green Jackets in London's St. Mary's Hospital. She moved from bed to bed and stopped to console Gillian Ward, 22, whose husband David, a clarinet player, lay heavily bandaged. Said Thatcher: "These brave young men are an example to us all." Sadly, too many more innocent men and women will be called upon for such bravery as long as cold-blooded terror is used as a political weapon. -By Russ Hoyle...

He held on dearly. The fighter's left eyelid was sliced, and the bridge of his two-tiered nose was split...
Philip DeGuere is a television producer, a home-computer aficionado and a very brave man. Working with a Virginia-based computer data bank called the Source, DeGuere devised a way in which a Source subscriber can punch in a code and use his computer keyboard to sound off on the television program he is watching. Every man a critic! Bring back Lou Grant! "People want to talk back to their television sets," says the Source's Mike Rawl. DeGuere has already used his hookup for electronic feedback on Hill Street Blues and his own detective adventure, Simon & Simon...
