...truck converted into an ambulance is always parked. Then he would have had to drive across the high, humpbacked Paradise Island bridge, which forms a narrow bottleneck between Paradise and the island of New Providence. On the return trip, he would have had to pass through a $2 toll gate. Leaving the island by boat would have been easier; he would probably have walked out the back of the Britannia to the beach on the ocean side of the island. The beach is unlighted, and a small boat standing beyond the shallows could have taken him off. Escape...

...return to the situation that existed prior to the Six-Day War is highly unlikely. The city was divided into two armed camps, its natural fabric torn by barricades, barbed wire and a guarded checkpoint at the Mandelbaum Gate, its two sectors closed to each other more effectively than East and West Berlin. Moreover, there is still some question about Jordan's right to the Old City. In 1948, as the 26-year British mandate over Palestine ended, King Abdullah of Trans-Jordan seized the West Bank of the Jordan River and the Old City while the Jews were...
...account has it that Anne and Joachim were devoted, but Anne could not conceive. So Joachim went into the desert to meditate; his wife stayed home to worry. An angel appeared to Anne, Joachim had a vision in the desert, and Joachim and Anne met passionately at the Golden Gate of Jerusalem. Left panel: at top, the marriage of Joachim and Anne; below, the priests of the temple refusing Anne and Joachim's offering.
