...World Cup soccer championship this year. El Salvador's team went to "Tegoose" (as Yankees call the Honduran capital) and lost 1-0 in overtime. Until game time for the rematch in the Salvadoran capital a week later, the Honduran players had to be hidden outside San Salvador. The Salvadorans won, and Hondurans retaliated by vandalizing Salvadoran stores in their country and boycotting Salvadoran goods. El Salvador accused Honduras of pursuing a policy of genocide against the Salvadoran people, and both countries broke off diplomatic relations...
SCATTERING the ever-present pigeons before them, stocky Bavarians strode across the Piazza San Marco, stopping to admire the lofty 11th century basilica, where Christian knights knelt in prayer before setting out on the Fourth Crusade. Not far away, American tourists surveyed the vaulted arches whose proud occupants once presided over Medieval Europe's richest and most powerful city-state.

They have divided their subjects into two groups. The "A" man is aggressive and harddriving, the kind of competitor who hates to lose. He is almost surely heading for trouble. The "B" man is more relaxed. He does not take his problems away from the office, and he is occasionally late to work. He also lives longer. Since the study began...
...conditioned Volkswagen bus with two little children. During the week he flies over to Vietnam and parachutes into the combat areas to save the wounded soldiers. He does stuff for them right there while the shooting is still going on, and then flies all the way back to San Francisco with the men. Sometimes while he's on the job, they live for a while in the Phillipines, Taiwan, and Japan. He's parachuted out of airplanes over 700 times and has 11,000 hours of flying time. It's not too dangerous because they keep in training; they...
