...Vietnam protests and the student strikes presented more serious questions about Harvard's image. Formally employed at the time as a Radcliffe PR person. Lord participated in an urgent drive to present Harvard's case to alumni and the media. The Gazette. Harvard's official weekly, was founded amid the tumult as an alternative to the student press, which was seen as radical. Today, 11 years after she assumed the helm of the main news office. Lord still sympathizes with those young people who lashed out at authority while Washington pursued the most unpopular war in the nation's history...
E.N.A., located in St.Germain-des-Prés, is the newest of the most prestigious grandes écoles and currently the most influential. It was created by De Gaulle after World War II specifically to unite civil servants by providing them with a rigorous, state-supervised education, and to build up the bureaucratic self-esteem that was tarnished during the Nazi years. It accepts only 150 students annually. Almost invariably, graduates of E.N.A. are assured of getting top jobs in the civil service. Indeed, so well did De Gaulle's innovation flourish that technocrats like Giscard, Rocard and onetime...

...technology of wind-assisted transport ships is relatively simple. West German Engineer Wilhelm Prölss did major research on the subject in the mid-1960s, but his studies went unnoticed during a time of cheap energy. The new sailing ships are not entirely dependent upon wind, but rather use the breezes to cut down the work of the regular engines. Says Frank K. Schallenberger, who formed Dynaship Corp. to use Prölss's designs: "I don't see how it's possible for shipbuilders and shipowners to ignore sail-powered ships. Five percent...
