...outside in the streets to play. They had apparently been squabbling earlier with some neighborhood children. One of the boys waved it in a girl's face and said, "I'm going to shoot you, and I'm not going to miss." Then the three-year-old grasped the gun in both hands and pointed it at another child on the street, Jeffery Krauch, 6. The three-year-old's brother cocked the pistol. The three-year-old fired it into Jeffery's chest. Jeffery stood for an instant, then fell, blood pouring from...
...West any closer to reducing or limiting their levels of armaments. The Strategic Arms Limitation Talks, for example, have been almost completely deadlocked since President Gerald Ford and Soviet Party Boss Leonid Brezhnev met at Vladivostock in November 1974.

Also a three-year-old orphaned nephew whom they are raising. Also about eight other children (it is hard to keep count) who don't quite live there but sort of romp around and squeal. Also a neighborhood cat. "I'm the only woman in the neighborhood who doesn't work full time...
...three-year-old system of floating exchange rates, under which currency values rise or fall according to demand, has changed all that. Now an oversupply of dollars abroad simply drives down the price. This kind of automatic devaluation in turn makes U.S. exports cheaper, increases sales of American products abroad and tends to wipe out any payments deficit. In the long run, officials now think, the health of the U.S. international financial position will best be measured by the dollar's strength abroad...
