It's our one-man's opinion that the reported hanging of Lt. Col.William R. Higgins by mad dog Shiite Hezbollah terrorists points uphow futile has been our intelligence in Lebanon. American hostageshave been held there for years, yet we still have not been able topinpoint their location.

The Patchway Workforce should remain steadfast where it rightfullybelongs. I am sure that the announcement that Concorde was not beingused to its full capacity was not altogether surprising in view ofthe present state of air travel.
In that context, too, I wasn't surprised that engine manufacturerRolls Royce was having to make adjustments to its workforce here inBristol and I would presume in its other divisions too.
The days are long since gone when manufacturers bore the brunt ofdownfalls from their own resources.
Now, it seems, if the products are not being sold or the servicesthey provide are not being made use of, there is only one solution -reduce the …
NASA's Ice, Cloud and Land Elevation Satellite (ICESat) lifted off from Vandenberg Air Force Base in California on 12 January.

He loaded the bases in …
