...goes throughout the Third World. Just as ordinary inflation bites deepest among poor people, the petro-squeeze hurts the yearning, less developed countries (LDCS) most of all. They can afford the painful pinch of rocketing costs for energy and petroleum-based products such as fertilizers and other chemicals much less than affluent industrial nations can. Climbing oil costs consume precious foreign exchange, make it harder to buy farm equipment or factory machinery, and curb development spending on agriculture, industry, education and health...
...eruptions have also prompted a question among startled Americans: Why do the world's Muslims seem to harbor such hostility for the U.S.? As President Carter said at his press conference last week, "We have the deepest respect and reverence for Islam and all those who share the Muslim faith."

"For me each one is an individual," Mother Teresa once explained. "I can give my whole heart to that person for that moment in an exchange of love. It is not social work. We must love each other. It involves...
...amazingly consistent Kingsberg punted the ball to Scoon, who was waiting next to the deepest Princeton fullback. As Scoon scooted towards right hand corner of the field to get a better angled shot, three Tiger defensemen charged her. Without cutting down on her exceptional speed, Scoon pulled off both a step-over fake and a body fake, which confused the defense and prevented it from stopping her scoring shot...
