...free-market side of the banana split you've got the Germans, who want all they can eat (in this case, 19 lbs. per person per year) at low prices; the trio of giant producers, Chiquita, Dole and Del Monte, which together account for 60% of the world output and want open borders and a fair fight, and may the best banana win; and the various banana republics where Dole, Chiquita and Del Monte operate...
...begin, one might consider that the tyrant-weary Berlin Philharmonic eyed him as a potential successor to von Karajan's chief conducting post, not necessarily for his musical worth, but because he was the one of the least oppressive candidates. This characteristic colors his entire artistic output--Haitink has been renowned for utter reliability and dependability, never for willful or idiosyncratic interpretations. Those seeking musical histrionics should look elsewhere.

Since the 1991 fall of the communist government, some of Hoxha's tracts have been recycled as housing insulation, but at least 600 tons of the books are moldering expensively...
...fuel rods, and U.S. officials fear that in some cases, rods from different parts of the reactor were shuffled together before being cooled in water-filled ponds. If, in the future, inspectors could analyze a large sample of them, they might come up with approximate readings of plutonium output, but they could not know the reactor's production history with complete certainty. "It is too late," insisted Hans Blix, head of the IAEA. "We cannot exclude ((the possibility)) that material has been diverted...
