Rather like a doctor rushing to keep a frail patient alive, U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger returns to the Middle East this week. His mission: to try to inject some vitality into the Arab-Israeli cease-fire he was instrumental in negotiating in early November...
...will most likely be boiled out of the rock in situ-underground. Occidental Petroleum Co., one of the many U.S. oil companies that lease private oil-shale lands, has developed such a process. Occidental's technique is to blast a chamber inside the oil-bearing rock, inject natural gas into it and then set it afire. The subterranean conflagration would cause the rock to yield its oil, which would then be brought to the surface via special wells. The cost is estimated at slightly more than $1 per bbl. To get the same result another way, Arthur Lewis...
...been working with tape recorders for 23 years and I've never heard the audio completely replaced by a solid tone," he reports. This would happen only during a rerecording, he says. Such a tone could be deliberately created with an audio signal generator (a device used to inject a desired tone to test or adjust audio circuits), but this could be easily distinguished, he explains, from the sound generated inadvertently from fluorescent lights or an electrical cord. Thus it would be a foolish way to make the conversation unintelligible. Re-recording a new conversation or erasing would...
...worry about the image their rags convey. Molloy, a former schoolteacher, gets paid for telling people how to dress like honest men (TIME, Sept. 4, 1972). His clients include companies with large sales forces and politicians-three Governors, five U.S. Senators and 13 House members.

The 1973 results, based on a sampling of 1,800 people completed last month, are as astonishing as the emperor's new clothes...
...about 40? now. Home heating fuel could climb as high as 40? per gal., almost double its current level, and jet fuel, kerosene, propane and other petroleum products will rise proportionately. Officials of the Cost of Living Council estimate that increases in the price of oil imports alone will inject about $5 billion of pure inflation into the economy, substantially raising already oppressive living costs. And, says COLC Staffer Charles Owens: "That is just the first hop of this frog...
