...temporary setback. He and the other leaders, he said, had accepted the Soviet dictates, and the attendant crackdowns on personal and political liberty, in hopes of getting the occupation lifted. "We are sure that you will see in all this an essential measure aimed at a return to a normal situation and a renewal of the trends toward social democratization...

Now he has come to believe, as have other embryologists and physiologists, that an unusually high incidence of abnormal births may result from couples' using the rhythm method for birth control and miscalculating the date of ovulation. An ovum may remain fertile for at least two days, and sperm for about 36 hours. Cross says that in the first half of the ovulation cycle, a stale sperm may fertilize a normal egg, and in the second half, a normal sperm may fertilize...
