...with everybody else's common-sense observation should be reassuring. But in the spectrum of hope for improving the education of minorities and for guaranteeing constitutional rights that have been violated for a century, Armor's report is depressing. Finding forced busing counterproductive, at least in inner cities, he offers evaluations of alternative measures...
...stone walls; the "Catholic area" was a nearby swamp appropriately called Bogside. Nor were Catholics?even when they became a majority in Derry?ever allowed to play any major role in the city's administration. When, in 1968, Catholic civil rightists did the unthinkable by marching through this Protestant inner sanctum, their defiance touched off a tragic tribal war that has engulfed all Northern Ireland. Yet after ten years of bloodshed, the city that served as the fuse for war may have found the balm for peace, as Derry Protestants and Catholics set an example for the rest of Northern...
Today the city government is still there, housed in an imposing modern edifice. So are the markets, in their original buildings-but only after a lengthy, civic tug of war and some shrewd, imaginative thinking about the inner city of Boston.

...possible black hole in Cygnus, one appears to be part of another double-star system in the constellation Scorpius (the Scorpion). Three more may have been detected, each at the heart of a globular cluster of stars in the halo of the earth's Milky Way galaxy. In the inner regions of these clusters, which contain tens of thousands of individual stars, some of the stars are revolving with wobbly motions, as if disturbed by a center of enormous gravity. Herbert Gursky and Andrea Dupree of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics believe that these stars "may well be orbiting...
Instead of trumpeting the defection, U.S. officials have shrouded it in uncharacteristic secrecy. But in West Germany, newspapers are speculating that Pacepa was a CIA "mole" who had patiently burrowed into Rumania's inner circle some years ago. That notion has been firmly, but not convincingly, denied by CIA officials in West Germany, who insist that they had no hand in arranging Pacepa's flight to the West. "This was not a deep penetration operation in the traditional sense," remarked an intelligence source in Washington last week, without further elaboration...
