...your shares in Conglomerate Corp. 3) Give a generous donation to Ivy University. 4) Apply for a home- equity loan to pay for the new boat. 5) Take a trip to an investment seminar in Hawaii and deduct it as a business expense. 6) Schedule Joe's long- postponed gall-bladder operation. 7) Pay business expenses (like your accountant's fee) a year in advance so you can write off a larger...
...American press has also been under steady attack by the Soviet Union ever since the Chernobyl nuclear accident. This takes true totalitarian gall. In the first few days, when the Soviets were hiding the facts, many American papers carried the U.P.I. report of 2,000 deaths, from an anonymous source in Kiev, but scrupulously did not sensationalize what could not be verified. The one major exception was the New York Post, that cynical tabloid that continues to lose millions for its Australian-born publisher, Rupert Murdoch. The Post used half its front page for a black headline MASS GRAVE, adding...
...section to play "waste a freshman" when they're in a bad mood. I've been wasted by seniors a few times myself, even after I moved on from Weld 10.

Soviet officials routinely dodge accountability for their actions by invoking an alleged "need" for harmonious East-West relations which nasty questions would presumably harm. It's time for us to call their bluff...
Bethesda Naval is the hospital of Presidents. Ronald Reagan went there last year to have a cancerous polyp removed from his colon. Richard Nixon was treated for viral pneumonia at the 500-bed facility in 1973. Lyndon Johnson had his gall bladder excised at the hospital in 1965 then proudly displayed his scar to anyone who cared to see it. Bethesda, in the northwest outskirts of Washington, D.C., is also a jewel in the crown of the U.S. military health care system, whose 688 facilities care for the nation's wounded in time of war. But presidential patronage notwithstanding...
