...time aren't much help; they are as enlightening as the remark Nixon made while surveying the Great Wall. Quipped the President: "You'd have to say this a great wall!" But later in the visit, Nixon toasted his hosts with a quote from Chairman Mao: "So many deed cry out to be done..Seize the day. Seize the hour...
...last week's large and surprising reduction-which made a total slash of 17.9% since December 1971. Foreign moneymen agreed with the U.S. view that cutting the dollar once more was the best way to end what had become a new and virulent world monetary crisis. When the deed had been accomplished, Treasury Secretary George Shultz proclaimed it almost with pride, saying: "There can be no doubt we have achieved a major improvement in the competitive position of American business...
Like almost every event in Ulster, it was mindlessly linked to some unavenged deed from the past. Two weeks ago, a group of Protestants had tossed a grenade at a busload of Catholic workers, killing one (TIME, Feb. 12).

Hanslin got around the problem by grouping his sites in eleven petal-shaped villages that he calls, a bit cutely, "special places." More important, he requires every buyer to deed back to Eastman from 10% to 50% of his land (depending on "what creates the most advantageous site") as permanent open space. In this way, almost 30% of the land will be preserved. It is one of the best conservation ideas since cluster planning; it also sells as easily...
