Because of the potential returns, all cattle breeders watch closely for just such "accidents." A completely unexpected one, for example, has turned up at Bueyeros, N. Mex., involving a six-year-old Hereford bull named Doctor Onward 211. The bull, it seems, has 14 ribs instead of the usual 13. More than that, it has passed on the mutation to many of its offspring.

...action may well have signaled a mild easing of tensions between the two countries. There have also been other signs of a thaw. Though the U.S.'s six-year-old trade embargo remains in effect, Washington recently modified its ban on travel to Cuba and announced that U.S. citizens may now get passports to visit the island for "cultural" and business reasons-provided that the Czechoslovakian embassy, Castro's diplomatic go-between in the U.S., agrees to issue a visa...
