...what is exciting farmers is a somewhat shorter (5 to 6 ft.) variety that yields a dark brown seed containing a high-protein food oil. This fall growers in North Dakota and adjacent states will harvest more than 5 million acres of what they call "flower," double last year's planting and 100 times as large as that of a decade ago. Some 75% of the crop, which will fatten farm incomes by $800 million this year, is sold in Europe and such distant markets as Egypt and Australia...
Under the MIC program, an 18-year-old Hartford fellow just getting a license to drive his new Chevy Citation, for example, pays exactly the same as a 35-year-old Hartford housewife climbing behind the wheel of the same model car for the first time. Drivers will receive premium reductions for each year of accident-free motoring, up to a maximum of five consecutive years. MIC estimates that people under 25 will pay an average of 55% less than they have been paying...
...William Holden still has the body of a 50-year-old. Or even less. Viewers can judge for themselves next fall when they watch Holden in The Earthling, a tale about an Australian bat-around-the-world who finally comes home to die.

When suspicious customs inspectors searched some passengers on a charter flight to Ireland from New York City last March, they found that no one was carrying more than $4,900. According to a British intelligence report, Americans contribute more money (an estimated $145,000 a year) to the Provisional I.R.A. than do people in any other country. The largest single U.S. source of cash, according to the report, is the New York-based Irish Northern Aid Committee (Noraid), which is headed by a former I.R.A. fighter, Michael Flannery, 77, who operates out of a small, cluttered...
...their money, so in that respect, yes, we're financing the I.R.A." Because Noraid has long been registered in the U.S. as an agent for the Irish Northern Aid Committee of Belfast, Flannery makes an accounting to the Justice Department of his organization's receipts twice a year. He says that Noraid raises about $200,000 annually and that the books he keeps account for every penny...
