Jeers. The schism widened a year ago when Sánchez, now 55, divorced his wife of 30 years and within three days married a beautiful younger woman, Lawyer Jeannette Ramos, who is 36. Aware of the problem that posed with his Roman Catholic constituency, the Governor announced at the same time that he would not seek reelection. By March, however, his confidence was so restored that he reversed his decision, against Muñoz's wishes...
...Precedent. Within those limits, the production had its virtues. Aided by Karl Boehm's lively and sensitive conducting, Wolfgang gave intimate poignancy to the often-slighted scene in which the knight, Von Stolzing. works out his song for the mastersinger's competition. At the end, Wolfgang toned down the eulogy to German art by the cobbler, Hans Sachs (at which German audiences used to rise reverently to their feet), and closed the opera on Sachs's more characteristic note of skepticism and resignation: "Folly, all is folly...
...same time organize the chaos." As he observes, an aerial photograph of any major U.S. city makes it appear to be bombed out; vast areas are given over to empty plots and parking lots. These, plus railroad yards and even highways, would make ideal sites for future new towns within towns, of which projects such as San Francisco's Golden Gateway Center are only the earliest prototypes. Population will be dense, Owings admits, but city dwellers will get around more easily; traffic functions will be divided into layers, with pedestrians in the open air and rails and roads beneath them...
...HONESTY. Right away, it has to be admitted that architecture, like life, tolerates contradictory kinds of honesty. Today architects like to show how buildings stand by calling attention to the structural system. In San Francisco's Alcoa building, the beautifully proportioned glass box hangs within a strong steel cage of vertical and diagonal steel beams. It thus avoids that hallmark of cheap building, a forest of interior columns. In the Gulf Life tower in Jacksonville, the architects went a step further; they expressed engineering stress lines by thickening concrete beams where they meet columns, narrowing them where there is less...
...liver, by contrast, is an immensely complex processing factory, with dozens of functions involving the chemistry of metabolism. Transplantation of a liver is far more difficult than that of a heart, and so far equally rare. Eight patients who have received new livers at three U.S. medical centers within the past year are now alive. In the early days of liver transplantation, survival for a month was considered remarkable. Last week one of the patients made medical history by reaching the first anniversary of the operation...
