...most dangerous time comes while sitting in a parked car with the motor running and the windows closed. This is a frequent occurrence in cold weather when the auto heater is turned on. To avoid possible poisoning, the motorist should always open a window when parked with the motor running...
WHITNEY-22 West 54th. The museum's annual weather vane of the winds of contemporary U.S. art shows that nothing that gets into the vocabulary of painting ever gets out: realism in varieties from Social to Pop; expressionism in forms from New York abstract to the tough geometry of hard-edge painting; impressionism from still lifes to mental landscapes.

Yet if a large-scale disaster actually does occur in a Government program...

If one key trend became evident during the year, it was that a certain sense of levelheaded stability has emerged to touch the economies of most free nations, even those that have not yet fully learned all the lessons of economic discipline. That stability enabled them to weather, with no more than a momentary flutter, crises that ranged in 1963 from outright revolutions and strong leftward shifts in government to Charles de Gaulle's rude exclusion of Britain from the Common Market and the assassination of the U.S. President...
