...Pakistanis permit the initial, partial withdrawal of Soviet troops? Said Dost: "Both we and the Soviet Union want this limited contingent of their forces withdrawn. But for that to happen, these interventions from abroad in our affairs should stop, and international guarantees should be given that intervention will not recur. First we must reach that stage: the cessation of all armed intervention and aggression from abroad...
Miki's score uses nine Western instruments plus the koto (a kind of harp), samisen (a Japanese lute) and the tsuzumi drum. The composer manipulates a few simple musical motifs to achieve great emotional resonance as the themes recur; a sensitive, fragile hybrid that combines traditional Japanese elements with contemporary Western compositional practices, it must be heard in the theater to make its effect. Director Colin Graham, who commissioned the work for London's English Music Theater in 1979, staged the sometimes violent action subtly and with formal grace...

In severe cases, they must resort to surgery, cutting away diseased portions of bowel and then reconnecting the ends or creating a hole through the abdomen so wastes can be collected in a pouch. But even with such drastic measures, the disease may recur, necessitating more extensive operations...

At diagnosis their cancers were more advanced, and after treatment they tended to recur more quickly than in the unmedicated women. The investigator attributed the more rapid growth to anxiety, but Horrobin believes that the tranquilizer's physical effects might be to blame. This is particularly ominous, says Horrobin, because "after a diagnosis of cancer, tranquilizer use increases two or threefold." The researcher adds: "Since nobody has bothered to look at tranquilizer...
