...Bread. The exodus figures loom even larger because of a sudden 50% drop in immigration; that is largely a result of the Kremlin's sharp cut back in the number of Russian Jews al lowed to leave the Soviet Union. Only 8,518 Russian Jews immigrated to Israel in 1975, compared with 16,816 in 1974 and 33,477 in 1973. Jerusalem is just as alarmed by the fact that 40% of new immigrants from Western countries have returned to their original homelands within five years. Last year a total of 19,000 Jews left Israel, while only...
Double Shifts. Among other things, the new budget will nearly double tuition for university students by reducing government subsidies and establish double shifts for teachers. The price of milk and bread may rise 60%. About 2,000 civil servants will be laid off, and the wages of the rest will be frozen. One possible benefit: workers forced out of Israel's top-heavy bureaucracy and service industries (such as clerical, teaching and airline jobs) may be forced to look for work in industry, where their talents are badly needed...

He is out of the world and yet still of it. From his cell, where he lives mainly on bread and water, he has written more than 40 books and pamphlets, most of them scholarly books on church affairs, directed the total rehabilitation of the decaying monastery and begun a reformation of Coptic monastic life so profound that he was one of three nominees to be Coptic Pope...
...sexual fantasies is not the simple invasion of privacy it might seem. Joyce's life was a tug of war between schizoid contradictions. He fled Dublin but never wrote about anything else. He renounced Catholicism, then cast himself as a higher priest who would transform the bread of common life into art. As these newly released letters show, the aloof classicist also struggled with the dark sensualist. "It is strange," Joyce wrote Nora in 1904, "from what muddy pools the angels call forth a spirit of beauty." Ulysses and Finnegans Wake were to prove him prophetic...
