...many mainland students will come to Taiwan to study. And that is also my policy. I want to make young people of the two sides have an opportunity to get to know each other at a relatively early stage of their lives. This is the best way for mutual understanding. If we continue to do that, in the next ten years, you will have mainlanders in Taiwan, and Taiwanese on the mainland, a very close interrelationship. I don't see you could start a war like that. This is the best national defense...
...plastic hands stacked on top of one another; one was pink, the second green, and the third hand yellow. Made in China, of course. They screamed every time a Chinese player dunked - in warm-ups. The game lived up to its billing as a battle between rivals that share mutual respect. The Chinese fans cheered whenever the U.S. did something spectacular (and with Wade soaring, James blocking shots, and a full court press that created easy baskets, there were plenty of chances to show...
Ideally, Afghanistan's South-Asian neighbors such as India and Pakistan will see their way to overcoming mutual antagonisms and establishing a collective, supplementary reconstruction fund - à la the Marshall Plan - to assist Kabul, but with private direct business investment.

Although that dream might seem unassailable, the strategic realities involved raise a far more unsettling question: Will the attempt to create a nuclear shield enhance stability or undermine it? In attempting to rid the planet of doomsday weapons, might SDI merely increase...
...officials suspect that Wilkis passed along information regarding that and other takeover attempts to Levine. Meanwhile, Drexel, Lazard and Shearson Lehman Bros. were all conducting internal investigations. Virtually every major securities firm in Manhattan circulated memos to employees reminding them of their ethical and legal responsibilities. One Wall Street mutual-fund manager confided that he is afraid even to telephone heads of companies whose stock his fund owns to discuss their firms' performance. As the press continued to dig for revelations, Director Sorkin said sourly, ''This has become a circus.'' True enough, but the show appeared to be far from...
