...right skin but the wrong tribe. Like the Wild Boy of Borneo, he is a reminder of instincts caged but not tamed by civilization. That such a creature has much to teach can be even more upsetting. So it is not the natives who are restless. Fairley, the harmless handyman of the good-hearted family that shelters him, stirs paranoia among the ignorant and the intolerant. Like the branches of their clans who thrived on slave labor in the American South, these early Queenslanders worry about uprisings and the loss of racial identity...
...yesterday's man. That is how some of today's young lions in the townships see Mandela. They do not like Mandela's sharing even a podium with De Klerk, for to them sharing means equating, and De Klerk is the enemy. It is these young people who are restless with the snail's pace of change, who wonder why freedom must be negotiated at all. This would not be the first time the Nobel Peace Prize was premature. Henry Kissinger and Le Duc Tho won the award in 1973, but the fighting in Vietnam continued for two more years...

But in the 20th century, air-conditioning, bug spray and the miracle of water control helped transform it into a migration destination for the restless masses of Brooklyn and Cleveland, Havana and Port-au-Prince. Florida developed its own ventricle at the heart of the American Dream - not only as an affordable playground and comfortable retirement home with no income tax but also as a state of escape and opportunity, a Magic Kingdom for tourists, a Fountain of Youth for seniors, a Cape Canaveral...
...feel about retiring from your career at the same age that others fully engage in theirs? Vince Jordan, LOS ANGELES It's not easy to retire at 31. In one respect I was glad I was done. But after a few years of having fun, I got a little restless. When you're 33, 34, and you don't have a focus, you can get kind of lost. As a man, you feel a little bit unfulfilled...
