...Reagan's reluctance to opt out was justified by a yet-to-be-released poll taken by the liberal Republican Ripon Society, which finds him, along with Richard Nixon, standing "the nearest step away from the 1968 Republican nomination," with George Romney and Nelson Rockefeller far to the rear...
...ended his program with a 10 minute cut from a Lenny Bruce tape. The monologue described Jesus and Moses coming down to earth one Sunday morning to hear "a double billing with Sheen and Spellman at St. Pats." They enter during the sermon and sit down at the rear of the Cathedral. Spellman directs Sheen to "put on the chorus for 10 minutes" and calls up Rome for instructions. "Don't look now," Sheen interrupts, but here come the lepers." The dialogue is at once screemingly funny and extremely offensive to the Church. It ends with Spellman delivering profane punchlines...
...direction of the spacecraft's motion. Thus, the computer showed, as the craft approached 45 Eridani at ever increasing velocities, other stars in the sky began to converge toward the target star. At 90% of the speed of light, only a few stars remained visible through the rear window. In a nightmarish finale to Moskowitz's flight, the remainder of the visible universe-stars, galaxies, nebulas-seemed to collapse into a single point and simultaneously disappear...
...priced models, be far ahead in safety. Though New York State has no plans to build it, the design has such features as four-wheel drive for maximum traction and resistance to skidding, an all-window defrosting system, four roll bars, a "driver's periscope" affording wide-angle rear-view visibility, and a hydraulic, energy-absorbing bumper that extends forward one foot when the car speeds beyond 37 m.p.h. The tanklike car is supposed to protect passengers against injuries in front and rear collisions up to 50 m.p.h., side bashes up to 40 m.p.h., and rollovers...
...years at a cost of some $15,000 in parts alone a prototype of a plastic-covered, steel-bodied car called the Ostentatienne Opera Sedan. It boasts a 270° windshield visibility, hidden rails in the sides to protect its four passengers (who enter through a single swing-up rear door), cantilevered roof beams that act as skid rails in case of a rollover, and seats that swing in a collision, placing body weight against the seat instead of a narrow seat belt. Mohs, who claims that the sedan is the first big U.S. car built since the Duesenberg...
