...exactly what the neighbors had in mind. The very idea of NATO, the E.C. and other postwar institutions has been to lock Germany into a European structure, not the other way around.

A new kind of television signal will leave the Bethesda, Md., TV tower of WETA, a PBS affiliate, fly across downtown Washington, strike an antenna on the roof of the Capitol building and zip down a cable into the Thomas P. O'Neill Room two floors below. There, before an audience of Senators, Congressmen and assorted commissioners, magician Harry Blackstone Jr. will draw back a black cloth and reveal the first image ever to be broadcast in digital high-definition...
