...that his life would be viewed as without consequence, and that he would be but one more transitory figure among the yearning and striving masses. Kennedy, too, I think, would have had his name writ in water, thus the appropriateness of his sea burial, because the best public servants disappear into the world, whose pain they feel. Every name is writ in water, which flows through...
...skills. And then one day you win the lottery. Life is suddenly a whole lot better. Money, it seems, cures everything. The problem in Japan is that even though having the new Nikkei riches may seem like winning the lottery, it's not.

It was an opening shot in what promises to be a sustained and challenging salvo for Gore...
...severe, and the plane was out of control. To TIME aviation correspondent Jerry Hannifin, that final plummet is a sign that the pilot simply took on more than he was qualified for. "Anyone who has flown regularly on the East Coast in summer knows that the horizon can disappear completely in the haze," says Hannifin. One scenario: Kennedy began a normal turn, and then lost sight of the horizon. If he made the turn too tight, he could have lost lift. From there it would be straight down, and fast.
