...economy more push, it will produce more taxes automatically." Bannow went on to say that "taxes should be such as to encourage business," and plugged the N.A.M. program for reducing taxes to 47% maximum on individual and corporate income. Such tax reforms would put "enough incentive into the bloodstream of business to produce even greater Government revenue than we have...
...rock 'n' roll). Moreover, it could be tuned up to an equally steady 115 (ideal for cha cha cha) after Nicole had taken some exercise, e.g., raced up several flights of stairs. Philippe-Gérard devised a special microphone that filtered out the noise of the bloodstream and the creaking of the rib cage. After that, it was a simple matter of wrapping Nicole's heartthrobs in strands of music...
Trieste, says its mayor, has become "a beautiful head without a body or bloodstream." Under the 1954 agreement, almost all the city's Istrian hinterland went to Yugoslavia. The Yugoslavs have worked hard to build up nearby Fiume (now called Rijeka) as a rival port. By keeping labor costs at coolie levels, Rijeka offers shippers rates running 20% to 50% below Trieste's. The nations of the old Austro-Hungarian Empire, for which Trieste used to be the prime port, are mostly Communist now, but even non-Communist Austria has diverted so much of its business to Rijeka...
Barium X rays had shown that the girls, joined for 5 in. down the middle of their chests and abdomens, had separate digestive tracts. Radiopaque dyes, injected into the bloodstream, had shown that each had two kidneys, and separate bile ducts. But blood was crossing the bridge between the twins. The important question: How much? Injected radioactive iodine 131 gave the answer through a scintillation counter: a forbidding 43%. The big remaining question was whether there were normal and separate blood-vessel connections to the liver. By operation's eve the twins were amazingly healthy, with no indication...
...three years poring over the records of 10,000 patients who had severe infections at the time of death in Boston City Hospital. The researchers covered 24 years, beginning with 1935, to get data before the first sulfa changed the picture (1937). Deaths caused by bacterial infections in the bloodstream dropped steadily until 1947, they found. Since then, the rate has stayed low or dropped further for deaths caused by pneumococci and the dreaded streptococci-the organisms most vulnerable to sulfas and antibiotics. But in these twelve years there has been an absolute increase in deaths from other bacteria...
