...father's control extends into Charles's mind. He has periods in which he is overcome by violent forces that black out his memory. He wakes up with bloodied hands, and, in a sequence recalling Hitchcock's Vertigo, finds himself going down a set of stairs that tilt and swing wildly under...
...eight other hotels as well. Hubert Humphrey (450 rooms) will be at the Carillon, Edmund Muskie (470 rooms) at the towering Americana in Bal Harbour. George Wallace will be off at the Sheraton Four Ambassadors and Dupont Plaza in Miami; he has 150 units, one equipped with a tilt table for his physical therapy. Shirley Chisholm (50 rooms) and Wilbur Mills (200 rooms) are both at the Deauville...

Hong Kong's clay soil becomes unstable when saturated with water, and so many buildings constructed...

At a greater tilt to the equator than the orbits used during the U.S. moon shots, it will carry Apollo directly over the Soviets' Tyuratam cosmo drome in central Asia. From there, the Russians will loft a two-man Soyuz spacecraft into a slightly higher orbit of 145 miles. Apollo will then begin a sequence of maneuvers, lasting another day or so, to raise...
