...academia. Virtually every week seems to bring fresh evidence that Japan is catching up with the U.S. -- and often surpassing it -- in creating the cutting-edge products that long were the turf of U.S. firms. Last week the American Electronics Association reported that from 1984 through 1987 electronics production rose 75% in Japan, vs. a paltry 8% in the U.S. Most ominously for the U.S., Japan made its gains in increasingly sophisticated components, such as the disk drives and optical-storage devices used for today's higher-powered computers. Says L. William Krause, chairman of AEA: "The Japanese are eating...
...impossibility of distinguishing, at a certain level, between pornography and art. The painting has little to do with lesbian perceptions of sex: it is a seraglio scene, an enactment for men's eyes only. But despite the corniness of the flowers and pearls that allegorize Luxury, the creamy rose of those bodies, shadowed with olive and held within the complicated machinery of the pose, is a breathtaking pictorial achievement...
...raptly muses about a thousand points of light, savoring the phrase, if not quite understanding it.

When energy was expensive, Americans treated it that way. Between 1973 and 1985, when the price of oil surged, U.S. per capita energy consumption fell 12% and the average amount of goods and services generated per person rose 17%. In the past few years, however, energy use has risen as the price has declined. Americans, who own more than 135 million cars, or about one-third of the world's total, have been driving more and have resumed their love affair with large gas-guzzling cars...
