...that, the beefy Ordner (order keepers) at N.P.D. rallies remind all too many Germans of Nazi storm troopers. The party's platform appeals not only to German self-pity but also to glories of another time. Von Thadden tells Germans there is no reason to feel guilty, to "beat ourselves with the past." He advocates German reunification, a greater German voice in NATO, and tough measures against criminals and protesters. The N.P.D.'s slogan: "Security Through Law and Order."

These also include morphine and codeine, which doctors very often prescribe as painkillers in carefully measured doses. Heroin users, who administer their own doses, seek the white powder because it makes them feel physically warm and peaceful and raises their self-esteem and confidence. Large doses can sufficiently slow bodily functions to cause death; more commonly, heroin users develop abscessed veins and hepatitis from dirty needles, are undernourished and prone to infections. Users occasionally have a fatal reaction even before the needle leaves their...
