There must be an understanding that all must earn the money they take, and there must be a specific value for each type of work. HERALD-SUN If [Prime Minister Harold] Wilson succeeds in Britain, that would be a turning point. The U.S. is more responsible, I think [than Europe]. Americans are not lazy by nature...
Submitted by Physicists Russell Targ and Harold Puthoff, the Nature article emphasized experiments at the Stanford Research Institute involving the controversial Israeli psychic and nightclub magician Uri Geller (TIME, March 14, 1973). Among other things, the report claimed that Geller correctly called the roll of a die inside a steel box eight out of ten times; on the other two rolls he declined to pick a number.

She has also found a supporting cast that rivals Mary's: Harold Gould (Pop), who helped sharpen The Sting; Nancy Walker (Ma), a former stage comedienne whose timing could be used to set observatory clocks; Julie Kavner (Rhoda's sister Brenda), a fresh face with an oversized appetite and talent to match. Rhoda has even been given a fiance, Joe (David Groh...
