...million voters would choose a chief executive. Trying to build a consensus for such reforms, Choi has met with more than 400 leaders of key groups-the military men who currently wield the decisive power, opposition politicians, business and community representatives from all over the country. As a result of Choi's efforts, the ruling and opposition parties in the National Assembly have agreed with rare unanimity to join in forming a Deliberation Committee for revision of the constitution...

Single shipments of crude are being sold on the spot market for as much...
...aides for a year or two. The sources not only supplied the authors with blow-by-blow descriptions of the court's in camera deliberations during the first seven years (1969-76) of Burger's tenure but also made available a number of confidential court documents. The result is The Brethren, a book that ventures into the Justices' chambers and sets forth their feuds, their jockeying, their horse trading and their personal quirks in relentless and sometimes startling detail...
