Perosona and Hour of The Wolf, his two previous films, showed the full-blown nightmare of the mind. The intellect is most horrible of all terrors, because there is no escape from it. Both these films showed people's brains driving them out of their minds. Every detail of time and space was enlarged: in Hour of the Wolf Max von Sydow measures out one minute in the dark and shows us how unbearably long it can be; in Persona Bergman constantly shows us detail of the two women's faces, so that when their personalities fuse we have already...
...increasing number of urbanologists, a partial solution is to start from scratch, wherever possible, by building "new towns"-completely planned communities that could support as many as 1,000,000 people apiece. Such new towns, says Architecture Critic Wolf Von Eckardt, are "our best hope of coming to grips with the problems of megalopolis." Ed Logue, the city planner who rebuilt Boston's downtown area and recently became president of New York State's Urban Development Corporation, advocates tax incentives that would entice developers to build towns ranging in size from 100,000 to 250,000. "At that...
...younger contenders, whose rivalry might otherwise divide the government and country between now and October. They are Allon, 50, the favorite of the party establishment, and Defense Minister Moshe Dayan, 53, whose immense popularity with the grass roots is not shared by the party brass.

...blues began feeling good to Johnny at the age of eleven, when he first heard the records of Robert Johnson, Howlin' Wolf and Lightnin' Hopkins on the radio down home in Beaumont, Texas. He began playing along on a hand-me-down guitar from his grandfather. Three years later, Johnny, 14, and Brother Edgar, 11, had their own band, Johnny and the Jammers. They made $8 a night for gigs across the border in Louisiana, where clubs were more lenient about age requirements. Edgar recalls that though Johnny only took enough lessons to pick up a few chords...
...laboratory animal and the wild animal now bear little resemblance to each other. They are both rodents, but that is about all. Confined in thousands of laboratories, the white rat represents hundreds of different varieties, each as different from its common ancestor as the Chihuahua is from the wolf. Some cornered Norway rats will fight to the death rather than allow themselves to be captured by a man; a cornered laboratory rat will simply back away. Wild Norways ruthlessly kill intruder rats; their amiable laboratory cousins merely sniff at strangers. Wild rats survive by their wits; captive rats...
