...been reached early last week were it not for another stalemate in Washington. This one was between the Justice Department, which had been called in because of possible federal law violations, and the Interior Department, which runs the Bureau of Indian Affairs. That agency is in many ways the core of AIM'S grievances. Justice Department officials and AIM last week reached a tentative agreement, whereby the Indians would lay down their arms and walk out of the camp, if a top Interior Department official would show up at Wounded Knee the following day to negotiate a list...
...declines in shipyard activity. The moment to build at relatively low cost came in June 1963, and the partners ordered from Norway four reefers that were fast enough (21 knots) and big enough (400,000 cu. ft.) to deliver twice as much fruit each season as conventional ships. These "core class" reefers-designed by Israeli engineers and largely financed by government-guaranteed loans-eventually grew into an armada that by 1971 totaled 36.

In the World's case, however, success may possibly backfire; New York's obscenity law allows a fine...
Like the various versions of Castaneda's life, the books are an invitation to consider contradictory kinds of truth. At the core of his books and Don Juan's method is, of course, the assumption that reality is not an absolute. It comes to each of us culturally determined, packaged in advance. "The world has been rendered coherent by our description of it," Castaneda argues, echoing Don Juan. "From the moment of birth, this world has been described for us. What we see is just a description...
