...Deterrent. The troops carried on. "The cold is no real bother," claimed Pfc. Timmy Sasser, 17, a mortarman from Dallas who was striving to erect a tent in -40°. Two companies of "aggressors," dropped by parachute, endured the equivalent of -175° F. as they hit the icy prop wash of their aircraft. But the cold was no deterrent to the paratroopers. Mushing ten miles on skis through deep powder snow at 53 below zero, dragging their survival kits on Ahkio sleds, 16 troopers pulled off a brilliant nighttime surprise attack on the headquarters of Brigadier General John...
...death, to his brother Aleksander, a Trieste businessman and once captain of the yacht of Yugoslav President Josip Broz Tito. In that letter Stevan told his brother that "if anything happens to me, address yourself to Alain Delon, to his wife and to his associate Francois Marcantoni, a real gangster . . ."

Why doesn't insurance cover more of those bills...
Except when partners are "severely alienated" or "deeply convinced that the other is mentally sick," Bach is certain that such passive and active hostilities provide man's rarest opportunities for forging real intimacy. "Authentic anger brings out truth," the authors write. "The pain of conflict is the price of true and enduring love. People simply cannot release all their love feelings unless they have learned to manage their hate." In group therapy with 250 pairs of pugilists, who paid $492.50 per couple for 13 "fight-training sessions" during the past six years, Bach has evolved a set of common...
