...then) and plunks her in the hospital for two days. The insurance pays virtually all the hospital bill and, if the family has coverage of the Blue Shield type, the doctor's bill as well. To Mark Berke, director of San Francisco's Mount Zion Hospital, the system "puts a premium on being a horizontal rather than a vertical patient." Says Surgeon General Stewart: "For episodic care of the middle-income class, the Blues do a reasonably good job. But there simply aren't enough benefits...
...maddening self-consciousness of Bach's techniques wears away, he and Wyden say, as couples master the art of intimate battle. "Our system is not a sport like boxing," the authors write. "It is more like a cooperative skill, such as dancing." But they warn that "with acquaintances, clients or 'dates,' a bad fight can be final." And although the technique is rooted in the footnotes of wide scholarship, Bach himself admits that some responsible critics worry that the method is too superficial and only skims the surface of deeper problems...
...concedes that Phobos and Deimos could be explored by visiting spacecraft. But if little Deimos, only five miles in diameter, could be brought into earth orbit, it could be investigated more thoroughly. The technology of the interplanetary move, which would be man's first rearrangement of the solar system, would be simple, Singer says. An efficient, low-thrust nuclear engine capable of firing for long periods of time could be set up on Deimos to push the moonlet out of its orbit and start it curving toward the earth. The cost would be high, says Singer, but it might...
Lunar Life. Much of Singer's spare time is now taken up with work on the theory that the moon was once an independent member of the solar system; that it passed too close to the earth and was captured by terrestrial gravity (TIME, Feb. 3, 1967). After the capture, he speculates, an atmosphere and oceans may have formed on the moon and lasted long enough to support the evolution of complex molecules that were forerunners of life. Singer is attempting to complete the theory while keeping one eye on the fast-moving Apollo moon program. "The idea...
...over 21), officiate at funerals, dedicate churches, baptize, take up collections and ordain other ministers. He can visit hospitals or jails any time-and some of Hens-ley's ministers don't have to go far to do that. Until officials of California's penal system warned that Universal Life ministers would get no special privileges, Hensley was doing a brisk business in the state prisons...
