...riding into town on the back of an ass. And that apotheosis. How disgusting. He had such an ego. "I'm the Son of God." ... And his method had no style at all. Compare his cheap performance at the grave-site of Lot-sickening- and that parable of our friend Buddha and the mustard seed. One, just a grandstand exhibition, and the other, beautiful, artistic and profound. The pieces are laid out for you to put together- and the author lets you know from the beginning that what you come up with is your problem...
Using a dime-store magnifying glass given to him by a friend, Whitaker began studying photographs of roughly the same area taken from above the moon by Lunar Orbiter 3. The glass proved a valuable gift. Within 20 hours after Surveyor's landing, Whitaker located a crater with the distinctive boulder and crater pattern. Surveyor, he confidently told NASA flight planners, was on the east side of that crater. With equal confidence- based on the navigation lessons learned from the flight of Apollo 11-NASA made plans for a precision landing that would place the lunar module within walking...
...past 15 months, though, the fun has seemed a bit convulsive. A year ago August, German Actress Anita Pallenberg, a former girl friend of Brian Jones', gave birth to Keith Richard's child. Actress-Singer Marianne Faithfull, not yet divorced from her first husband, became pregnant by Jagger. Both she and Jagger said marriage was not for them.

A warmhearted and generous friend of everyone theatrical, Sardi played host to all the stars-Garbo, the Barrymores, Katharine Cornell-and made certain that they dined undisturbed by autograph seekers; the young hopefuls lived on Sardi's credit; plays were conceived and cast at the crowded tables; and on opening night, Sardi's was where everyone anxiously awaited the critics' reviews. As Dennis King once...
This thesis impresses many eminent economists. Says Walter W. Heller, former chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers: "I think we have to be very, very careful in suggesting that inflation is the enemy of the poor. It may be their friend in employment terms." Some Government figures buttress the argument. For example, 800,000 of the 5,800,000 U.S. families that were officially defined as poor in 1966 had increased their incomes enough to rise above the poverty line last year. Their gains were achieved even though inflation had meanwhile pushed the poverty line...
