...earth's climate is entering a period of increased variability that will make prediction and planning ever more difficult. "I do not see glacial melts or an ice age," says Jerome Namias of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography in La Jolla, Calif. "What I see is fluctuations." Stephen Schneider, deputy head of the climate project at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder, Colo., says the evidence of the past few years suggests that there is a good possibility the climate is becoming more unpredictable...
Brando was disappointed by his most notorious film, Last Tango in Paris. "Bertolucci was a very sensitive director, but I didn't like the movie.

"But it could be different, and different is likely to be worse because it is so unpredictable...
...Schneider argues that the Federal Government should reverse its present policy against stockpiling and start building up reserves of food.

Should there be major agricultural disasters in the U.S., Asia and the Soviet Union, warned Stanford University Biologist Paul Ehrlich, "our problems...
Templin's Fraulein Schneider understands above all the necessity of enduring; a fine dramatic singer, Templin infuses her rendition of "What Would You Do?" with a dignity that partially redeems Schneider's seemingly heartless emphasis on survival at the cost of love. Lerangis achieves just the right balance between humor and pathos in his portrayal of the rejected fruit dealer, displaying a superb tenor voice as he tells the story of the "Meeskite" who lives happily ever after and ponders the advantages of the wedded estate in "Married...
