...Portugal's António de Oliveira Salazar ended last year, the old man is not yet aware of it. Still immobilized after a stroke and a coma 13 months ago, Salazar calls Cabinet meetings, and his old ministers faithfully attend-even though some of them are no longer in the Cabinet. No one has found the courage to tell the 80-year-old dictator that he has been replaced...

Most of the 40 million U.S. residents who move each year must now make difficult compromises: they must pay higher prices than they had budgeted, or accept less living space, longer commuting or lower school standards. The problem affects almost everybody-the rich in luxury apartments, the middle class in suburban subdivisions, the poor in festering slums. In order to make bigger down payments, many middle-class families are forced to borrow from relatives. The poor feel the pinch most of all, since...
