...empire is taxing Mengistu's government and its Soviet mentors both militarily and economically. More than 30% of Ethiopia's $1.2 billion budget is allotted to the army and air force, and conscription has been introduced to bolster recruitment for what is already the largest army in sub-Saharan Africa. When Mengistu visited Moscow last year, the Soviets asked for repayment of at least part of the $2 billion they had loaned for arms. The Ethiopian leader reportedly just shrugged his shoulders and told his hosts that his country could not pay. Indeed, it cannot. Ethiopia...
...snacks following touch football games in front of Winthrop House.) By the way, the chef's salad is an underrated gem. Tommy's just down Mt. Auburn St., is every bit the venerable institution, having served pinball-players and procrastinators for over 25 years now. The cheese steak sub is marvelous at 1 a.m. With these two stalwarts in tow, you'll find little reason to check out Mug and Muffin over the summer, except perhaps for a bagel or blueberry muffin for breakfast...
...mile record is the one honor which has eluded Dixon. Fifteen years ago Jim Baker covered the distance in 4:00.2, and no one has topped it since.

The Harvard authors oppose the development of the B-1 bomber and have reservations about the deployment of sub marine-launched nuclear cruise missiles. But they support the Stealth bomber and air-launched cruise missiles, and see little gain in adopting a policy forgoing the first use of nuclear weapons in the event of war. The scholars support U.S. retention of land-based intercontinental missiles, even though the weapons...
...young servant was "mighty pretty," thought Samuel Pepys, and it was not long before his wife "did find me embracing the girl con my hand sub su coats." In that babel of cryptic foreign words, inscribed in an equally cryptic shorthand, Pepys confided to his diary all the earthiest details of his rakish life in London in the 1660s. There was plenty to confide. Mrs. Pepys made him dismiss the girl. Pepys gave his servant a lofty talk, warning her to "have a care for her honour and to fear God." He then paid her 20 shillings to tell...
