...never want to go out with a whimper. Everything has drama if it's done right. Even a pancake." Flambe flapjacks aside, Child has her reflective moments, as well as a couple of unsettling ones. "Always remember," she says, "if you're alone in the kitchen and you drop the lamb, you can always just pick it up. Who's going to know?" Hmmm. Maybe we should look at some of those French Chef tapes again...
...reggae. After beginning his set with a number of pop selections from his recent album Humanitarian, Cliff strung together a flurry of hits like "The Harder They Come," "You Can Get It if You Really Want," "I Can See Clearly Now" and "Third World People." Never letting his energy drop for a moment, he remained constantly upbeat to the last song.

Reflecting on his 30 years in reggae, Cliff said that "I am still...
...Suddenly a bumper crop of The Unexpected (including disclosure that New York's Roundhead moralist had been committing adultery) had turned Giuliani's bracing Senate race-to-the-death against Hillary Clinton into something like "Days of Our Lives."

Great idea, but as of last week I could find only three hardware add-ons that were available in retail stores--a modem, a universal remote and a digital camera. The EyeModule ($149) camera is a particularly fun idea, but the color...
UNDERAGE SMOKING Teen smoking declined in the 1980s but has increased more than one-third in the past decade. A new study says lower cigarette prices and law-bending retailers are responsible for the rise. When prices drop, more teens begin smoking. And more retailers are selling tobacco to underage kids. In Georgia, minors working undercover with police were sold cigarettes 53% of the time...
