...cell phones, are probably in sync with their families, their lives and their surroundings. All the things we "need" are just pulling us away from what is really important in this world. I hope more people can learn to be thankful for what they have. Rebecca Edwards, ORANGE PARK...
...written into magazine pieces on utterly unrelated topics. A June 1977 TIME cover story on the health boom began with this larkish "BULLETIN: Noted Physical Fitness Enthusiast Farrah Fawcett-Majors will appear in the tenth, 20th and 30th paragraphs of this article, jogging nude around the Central Park Reservoir, pausing every 50 yards to give a demonstration of rope-skipping.

They have continued night after night, beginning at 10 and continuing for 30 minutes. Each time I've lost faith, I've been wrong. Iranians are proving to be a sturdier lot than I have given them credit for, much mightier even than the formidable kootoole who stand in their...
