Back then, the smash success of the Eagles, with their ingratiating harmonies and their canny outlaw lyrics, kicked open the doors for a whole generation of songwriters, from Jackson Browne to Warren Zevon and Karla Bonoff. Whether any 1990s group will crash the charts in such big-time fashion is not yet known.

"I thought it was very special; the kids thought it was great. But between ten and 13, I went through some rough times. The kids wouldn't play with me. They said my mother didn't want me." There was worse to come. In a health and sex-education class, "my teacher went all off on the subject of how adopted kids are second choice...
...TIME, five labor right alongside their professional counterparts in different departments. Last month, as a reporter-researcher in the Nation section, Stanford senior Frank Quaratiello interviewed a survivor of the United Airlines DC-10 crash in Sioux City, Iowa, and is writing the Milestones section for this issue. Karla Bruner, a University of Missouri at Columbia graduate, has researched stories ranging from Cuba and Argentina to Burma and Greece for our World section. As managing editor of the Harvard International Review, Mark Suzman has come in contact with public figures like Jacques Delors, president of the European Commission. Now Suzman...
