...flesh, of course. But in spirit, nuance, mannerism, inflection and any other ephemeral component of credibility that might explain the graying CBS anchorman's enormous popularity. A faction in the state television monopoly wanted to replace the reigning crew of bland newsreaders with a single, reassuringly credible, American-style anchorman-en effet, a French Walter Cronkite. In 1974 French President Valéry Giscard d'Estaing made that scheme possible by splitting the monopoly into three parts. Officials of Télévision Française I, one of the new state-owned but competing channels, were...
That research derives from Psychoanalyst Erik Erikson, who wrote a few cryptic pages on the subject, then invited others to flesh out adult stages. As Gould charts them, the stages-for men and women-break down as follows...
...never blend easily into the religious landscape. Ever since Jesus appeared to Smith to denounce other Christian creeds as "an abomination," the Mormons have considered themselves the one true "restored" church.

...might actually get a chance to see the Red Sox in the (all too human) flesh in the middle of next week, when the Cleveland Indians gallop into town for a three-game set at Fenway. Normally it's a real challenge to pick up a Sox ticket these days, but the Tribe is so amateurish they've been invited to send a delegation to the Olympics, so don't sweat it. Rumor has it that Bowie Kuhn actually forgot Cleveland is still in the major leagues, and the team certainly hasn't done much to correct that impression. Look...
