Such thriving movements as Avn Rand's Objectivism or L. Ron Hubbard's Scientology impart a messianic spirit to the new Euro-and Anglo-American militancy. Reports of the death of the West may be premature. Read the book, Imperium, by Francis Parker Yockey and wonder if the greatest Western Empire is yet to come. In the grand manner. At any event, it certainly seems that the easeful, gentlemanly days of church-state separation are over...
...citizen, Chi stoutly declares: "My skin is Chinese. My eyes are Chinese. My heart runs only for the Chinese." An A student in physical education, she plans to return to Taiwan to coach track after a year or two of graduate study. She says that she would like to impart the "religious feeling" of running. "I have reached the point," she says, "where if I lose a race, I figure God doesn't want me to win. So I pray to him, saying 'God, whatever I've done, please forgive me.' If I should win, well...

At best, their admission could impart fresh momentum to the old dream of Monnet, who was sure that "once a common market interest has been created, then political union will come naturally...

But finally, in 1968, the distillers won federal approval to mature a new high-proof whisky in used kegs and label it "aged...
...Atlantic off the coast of Brazil in only 38 hours. Again Mission Control decided not to risk firing a possibly damaged engine. If, on the other hand, the 26-ton service module were jettisoned after rounding the moon, a long burn of the small Aquarius descent engine would impart about the same velocity to the lightened spacecraft, setting it down in the South Atlantic in less than 40 hours. But that strategy too carried unnecessary risks. It would so deplete the LM's fuel supply that later course corrections might not be possible. Also, loss of the service module would...
