...follow within a year of the initial touchdown by Apollo 11 astronauts. Lunar modules (LMs) will be set down on two lowland maria, or seas, as well as on two separate highland sites. In Apollo 11, the astronauts will stray no more than 50 ft. away from their craft. Their scientific equipment-called EASEP for "Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Payload"-includes a solar-powered seismometer to check on moonquakes and a mirror to bounce back an earth-based laser beam to measure the distance from home...
Love and Money." Witches never do spells for money unless a member of the craft is in definite financial need. Witches do not use psychedelic drugs ("along with pot and fascination"), and the "free colleges for dropouts" have the fat, rich and bored bourgeoisie for the largest part of their student body. My class was not "a how-to course in witchcraft"-there is no such thing, there never can be. There is no such program as "how to be a witch in ten easy lessons." Witchcraft is not folderol-it is the first religion known to man, a very...
First he sailed 4,300 miles across the Pacific from Peru to French Polynesia aboard Kon-Tiki, a primitive raft made of balsa logs.

Heyerdahl and a crew of six will shove off from Safi, Morocco, next month, charting a course through the Canary Islands to Central America, where traces of what seems to be primitive Old World cultures have been found.

...ambitious goal of almost doubling housing production (to an average of 2,600,000 units a year for the next decade). Even if enough mortgage money were available, the old-line construction industry would not possess the entrepreneurial or technical base for so rapid an expansion. In any case, craft labor unions, archaic local building codes and the industry's fragmented organization inhibit mass production and inflate construction costs. Big combines might ultimately even do for housing-the biggest investment most families make-what Henry Ford did for the car. In many sectors of the U.S. economy, today...
...tested by the question: how often is he seen playing with children? Like Joyce, Burgess loves to play with words, the greatest of toys allowed to grown men. English is not enough; he can play in Russian, German, Spanish and Malay, and this gives him the insight of a craft-brother to a hundred writers who have little in common but the gift and the love...
