...spokesman and interpreter of Nasser and the Arab socialism that the late President introduced into Egypt; even after Nasser's death and Sadat's succession, Heikal and al Ahram retained a special status and authority. But in recent months Heikal's foreign policy pronouncements began to differ from Sadat's apparent aims. For instance, while Sadat has been making overtures to reestablish Egyptian friendship with the U.S., Heikal's last column on Feb. 1 accused Washington of undermining Egypt's political role and disrupting Arab unity. The voice of al Ahram obviously...
...give up enough for an acceptable peace settlement. I greatly admire the abilities and intentions of Henry Kissinger, but even a man as brilliant as the Secretary of State cannot rise above a country's institutions." Because of his doubts over Nixon, said Heikal, "I began to differ with Sadat about the pace with which we were putting all our trust in Nixon.

Because the penile tissue is still sensitive, male-to-female transexuals may experience orgasm, though of course pregnancy is impossible...
Theoretical Leap. Many researchers feel that memories are stored and recalled by a combination of macromolecules or large molecules that probably differ considerably from one individual to another. Thus they reject the notion of some science-fiction writers that memory molecules-and thereby memories-may one day be transferred from one brain to another. "The immune response is a learned reaction," says Rockefeller University's Edelman, again citing the parallel between memory and immunology. "There is no Marcel Proust for immunology. I doubt that there's one for the neurosciences...
