...reconciliation'' to be presented to the U.S. What was offered, TIME has learned, contravened the key elements of the Governors Island accord signed in July -- the agreement that called for Cedras and Police Chief Michel Francois to resign. Aristide could return, the note proposed, but Cedras and Francois would remain in their posts, responsible only to an ''independent'' Prime Minister they had every intention of controlling. Aristide, it was clear, would be a political cripple. The letter was never sent. On Friday afternoon, when U.S. envoy Lawrence Pezzullo met with Cedras, the Haitians knew the fleet...
...ransom'' caught my attention. In fact, we would like our warnings to be much more public. Too many U.S. businesses and individuals have lost tens and even hundreds of thousands of dollars, and at least one businessman has lost his life. Yet the volume and variety of these scams remain overwhelming, and the victims continue to add up. Please help us get the word out. One source of information on fraudulent schemes emanating from Nigeria is the Department of State's ''Tips for Business Travelers to Nigeria.'' This brochure can be obtained by sending a stamped, self-addressed envelope...
...year's flight schedule would have been sharply curtailed even without a Challenger disaster. Reagan gave James Fletcher, NASA's new administrator, 30 days to explain how he intends to implement the commission's recommendations.

...Deindustrialization critics argue that some of the hardship could easily be prevented through enlightened protectionism. Barry Bluestone, an economics professor at Boston College and co-author of The Deindustrialization of America, argues for ''vanishing'' protective tariffs to rebuild the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing. The tariffs would remain in effect only for a fixed period, perhaps five years, while a struggling industry regrouped. Bluestone also advocates a kind of supportive national planning to identify key industries that deserve help in recovery, in the same way that Washington helped Chrysler. However Bluestone and his allies are merely attempting to shore...
...Benghazi last April. Western reporters were invited to Tripoli and advised to expect a major speech. Gaddafi never turned up. An apathetic crowd of 2,000 Libyans who gathered in Tripoli instead heard a harangue, apparently videotaped earlier, that raised doubts about how much longer the colonel can remain as ''leader of the revolution.'' The nearly two-hour televised address showed an exhausted-looking Gaddafi fidgeting in his chair and speaking in a hoarse voice. His diatribe against the U.S. and Western Europe was devoid of the fiery rhetoric that he has employed in the past to whip crowds into...
