Perched in the best section of "old Bel Air" in west Los Angeles, 668 St. Cloud Road is the newly chosen site of Ronald and Nancy Reagan's post-White House home. In selecting the place, the Reagans wisely relied on the traditional real estate mantra -- location, location, location. But they chose an unusual procedure for acquiring their new homestead: they are leasing it from a consortium of about 20 friends and investors who purchased it specifically for the President and the First Lady...
...Marion Jorgensen began a surreptitious search in the area. But word got around the real estate circuit, and the women were besieged by eager brokers. When a social acquaintance of Jorgensen's telephoned her to say that her elderly, recently widowed niece might want to part with her St. Cloud home, Jorgensen and Bloomingdale found what they -- and the Reagans -- had been looking for. In August 1986, Wall Management quietly bought the house and leased it back to the widow, who has since died. Reagan had apparently considered a few houses about a year and a half ago, but balked...
...From the handful of Republican Governors down to county chairmen, party centurions were wooed and won long before Dole's emissaries began courtship.

...offers the hypothesis admist a cloud of scientific jargon claiming to explain much. Yet when the smoke clears, so does the plausibility of his argument. Sheldrake attempts to disprove physical theory by proposing the existence of "pure information" in addition to matter and energy. This information provides the foundation for morphic fields and allows them to persist undiminished through time and space. Though he offers a few tests of this theory. Sheldrake explains away outcomes that would seem to disprove his proposal. He himself is extremely credulous, gleeful that his ideas allow for telepathy, reincarnation, collective memory and the like...
