...occasionally balances gibes at his comrades by poking fun at himself. In a secret speech at Lushaa in 1959, he discussed the need to go slower during the Great Leap Forward: "One can't be rash. There must be a step-by-step process. In eating meat, one can only consume one piece at a time. One can never hope to become a fatso at one stroke." After a pause, Mao continued: "The commander in chief [Marshal Chu Teh] and I didn't get fat in a single...
...swallowing the enemy completely. How did we synthesize the Kuomintang? Didn't we take enemy personnel and reform them? Some of them we released, but the majority we took into our forces. Eating is also synthesis. When you're eating crab, for instance, you eat only the meat and not the shell. The stomach absorbs nourishment and expels waste. You gentlemen are all Western philosophers, while I'm a native philosopher. The synthesis we applied to the Kuomintang was to eat it up, absorb the greater part and expel the smaller part. This is what we learned...
Advocate, muckraker and crusader, Nader has also been almost solely responsible for the passage of five major federal laws. They are the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act of 1966. the Wholesome Meat Act of 1967, the Natural Gas Pipeline Safety Act, the Radiation Control for Health and Safety Act and the Wholesale Poultry Products Act, all of 1968.

When Consumers Union analyzed federally inspected pork sausage, inspectors found that one-eighth of the samples contained "insect fragments, insect larvae, rodent hairs and other kinds of filth." Investigators for the National Commission on Product Safety have found many potentially lethal toys on the market. Eleven Philadelphia children recently...
...Connoisseur's Book of the Cigar by Zino Davidoff. 92 pages. McGraw-Hill. $5.95. What really troubles a woman about cigars is not their aroma but the look of contentment that drifts across a man's face when he lights one up. No meat loaf could ever do that, and she resents it. This informative breviary of cigarabilia-kinds, sizes, shapes, how to light up, etc.-by a Swiss cigar dealer is unlikely to lessen that resentment. Mainly for men with a sense of humidor...
