...voters of New York's 17th Congressional District, one of the most sophisticated, issue-conscious constituencies in America. Covering the east-central quarter of Manhattan Island, the district includes the art, music, publishing, theatrical and television nerve centers of the nation, upper-level Greenwich Village latitudes, and the gold-paved stretches of Fifth and Park avenues.

Both the cities of Essen and Bonn last year staged highly successful community "walking days."

The fuel of Venezuela's economy is the country's fabled pool of oil, greater than that of any other nation except the U.S. and Russia. The black gold that foreign companies pump from beneath the muddy floor of Lake Maracaibo enriches the Venezuelan government by $1.3 billion yearly, or about $1 per bbl. And whenever the treasury wants more, it simply squeezes the 25 foreign oil companies a little tighter-which is what it is doing right...
