...extremely suggestive lines from Belushi ("Baby, you know when you bend over I see every bit of Christmas, and when you bend back I'm looking right into the new year."). On "Soul Man" Cropper delivers the same great riff he's been playing for years, and fellow MG Duck Dunn's bass line is downright thunderous. " 'B' Movie Box Car Blues" and "Flip, Flop & Fly" are fine, though not up to the standards set by the album's other tracks...
...consommé brunoise, standing rib roast and macédoine of fruits in champagne with bourbon-soaked chocolate truffles.

In March, the Thames Water Authority will begin restocking the upper reaches of the tidal Thames with what the agency's boss, Hugh Fish, calls the "most persnickety offish"-the Atlantic salmon...
From a journalist's point of view, it may be just as well that the court chose to duck the Farber case, given the cold shoulder that the Justices have turned toward press claims of special privilege in recent decisions. "When journalists rely on the First Amendment in these cases, they'd better face the fact they're not going to get much help from the Supreme Court," says Columbia Law Professor Benno Schmidt. One reporter who agrees is Farber, who is finishing a book on the case. Says he: "I wasn't surprised. I became...
