Power is no more than the capability for achievement, it does not exist on its own. If Mayor Lindsay can employ his power to run the city as a modern-minded chief executive and not merely as its complaint bureau and top politician, he may well stir pride and kindle civic interest among New Yorkers. If he succeeds, he will not only restore the glory that was New York but immensely enhance its national political standing...
Laing abstracts the hot-rod esthetic in paintings on brass and aluminum that hinge and bend to slither up the walls or across the floor. They employ the customized car lingo in their textures: chrome and riots of rainbow "flake" (colored metal chips frozen in sprayed vinyl) finishes. They take the serpentine ripple of flames painted on the sides of racing cars, the flapping forms of the parachutes used to slow giant dragsters.

By 1990 the capacities of these plants will double. Two new Minnesota towns, Silver Bay and Hoyt Lakes, have recently been created. The taconite boom is also reviving older towns: in Chisholm (pop. 7,100), unemployment has fallen from 33% three years ago to only 6% today. Mining company payrolls and purchases will soon reach $194 million a year, and Minnesota expects the taconite industry...
...Crimson cornerbacks, Bob Norton and Bill Cobb, are becoming solid defenders against sideline patterns, and safetymen Dave Poe and John Dockery very effectively employ a zone type of coverage on deep passes. It's up the middle, where receivers can hook in behind the interior linebackers, that presents a problem...
