Fisher will also retain her position at Eliot House...
...producing cartel (OPEC). Under the Carter plan, most of the wellhead tax would be rebated to consumers. The oil and gas companies would also like to see domestic oil prices rise to world levels, but they object to the wellhead tax and rebate plan. They want to retain all of the proceeds from the higher prices-not to keep profits high, they insist, but to finance the ever growing cost of exploration...
Thus far the schism is loud but small: the larger parishes are remaining loyal. But there is potential for dramatic skirmishes in the next year or two, especially if courts rule that departing parishes can retain their property. As if to remind the bishops of the threat, a parish in nearby West Palm Beach became the 18th to quit the denomination.

Besides women priests, the group protests modernization of the church's liturgy...

Julia's story, included in the book, is at times both sentimentally nostalgic and self-righteous, but Hellman recounts it without becoming offensive.

In the U.S. alone, the Coca-Cola Co. retains three lawyers to stand guard over the trademark "Coke." Other companies like IBM, RCA and Gillette also retain full-time trademark attorneys to keep products built by advertising into household words from becoming just household words. Even Britain's Freddy Laker has hired a Washington lawyer to protect Laker...
