...gear would not have to be moved very far. Nixon's $80,000 federal pension, plus royalties from memoirs and television appearances, still enables him and Pat to live quite comfortably. They will soon move just one mile from San Clemente to Cypress Shores. A $650,000 five-bedroom home in this private compound has been acquired by Pal Charles ("Bebe") Rebozo, who plans to sell it soon to his old friends from the pleasant days in Florida and Washington...
...times Clark did little to dispel that mage. In an appeal to Jewish voters in Toronto, Clark grandly promised that he would move the Canadian embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem-a move that would complicate Ottawa's relations with the Arab world. Clark's handlers were so leery of verbal miscues that they limited his appearances to small groups and friendly audiences. They also shrewdly declined to put forward detailed proposals that Trudeau, an unmatched debater, could pick apart. One exception: a highly popular plan for partial tax deductions for home mortgage interest payments...

Sales of the Omni and Horizon compacts have almost doubled since last year, but their production is limited because of a contract with Volkswagen, which makes the engine and produces only 300,000 a year...
Marine biologists point out that lobsters are already being dangerously overfished. Off New England, lobster "pots" -the bait-loaded wooden traps used to snare the creatures-are so densely packed on the ocean floor that a lobster can barely move without bumping into one. Farther offshore, foreign fishermen have been using more sophisticated dredges to scoop up lobsters. In all too many cases, young females are removed before they have had a chance to reproduce; often they are taken under the typical state legal limit of 3 3/16 in. from eye socket to the beginning of the tail, a restraint...
