WHAT A POWERFUL DIFFERENCE You don't have to be on a vacation to enjoy driving. Even the drive back and forth from your job can be fun ... if your car gives you top performance. But to get full power you need a high-octane fuel. You see, the amount of power gasoline can deliver de- pends on its octane rating. So, for maxi- mum driving pleasure — whenever and wherever you drive— stop at the pump with the familiar "Ethyl" emblem and fill up with high-octane "Ethyl" gasoline.

  • The Politician Truth Will Ultimately Prevail Where There Is Pains Taken to Bring It to Light
    The Politician Truth will ultimately prevail where there is pains taken to bring it to light. —George Washington Obvious pressures to smother and ignore The Politician since its official publication are unmatched in the history of the American book world. Now that this explosive volume is available to anyone who will read and judge for himself, the hundreds of periodicals which were quoting and misquoting from it regularly for two years have failed to give it a review or a mention of any nature. There have been many case histories showing the influence exerted on the seven thousand regular bookstores in the United States which has resulted in a virtual boycott of the book—even by those stores that wanted to offer it for sale. In spite of these problems, the sale of forty thousand copies in the first six months after publication and the continuing strong sale have been encouraging. The truth, so fully documented, is not easy to keep buried, even by all of the powerful influences that are so determined to hide it.

Get one month free for digital subscriptions. SEE MY OPTIONS ARCHIVES | 1975 Julius Epstein, Author, 74, Dies; Wrote of Forced Repatriations JULY 5, 1975 PALO ALTO, Calif., July 4 (UPI)—Julius Epstein, a journalist who wrote hooks about the forced repatriation of antiCommunist to the Soviet Union after World War II, died Thursday at the age of 74. Mr. Epstein was for 10 years a research associate at Hoover Institution, Stanford University, acrd was also a professor of international affairs at Lincoln University in San Francisco. His latest work dealing with the return of anti‐Communists was entitled “Operation Keelhaul.” In it Mr. Epstein maintained that the United States had secretly agreed to the forcible return of more than a million Russians and East Europeans to the Soviet Union after the war. He said those returned had been prisoners of war, refugees and displaced persons. Mr. Epstein discovered early in 1954 in the Army's Historical Records Branch at Alexandria, Va., an Index card marked, “Forcible Repatriation of Displaced Soviet Citizens—Operation Keelhaul.” Told it was “top secret,” he went to court to have the decouments declassified, without success. In 1970 the White House informed him that President Nixon had removed the Government's objection to declassification. “However,” the spokesman said, “given TRENDING the joint origin of the documents, British concurrence is necessary before they can be released, and this concurrence has not been received.” AD DECENTRIC GPS is Doomed (No Joke) Meet the company taking on an $11.2 trillion dollar market.

    HOMELAND, IDENTITY AND MEDIA: A STUDY OF INDONESIAN TRANSNATIONAL MUSLIMS IN NEW YORK CITY A dissertation presented to the faculty of the Scripps College of Communication of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Putut Widjanarko June 2007 This dissertation entitled HOMELAND, IDENTITY AND MEDIA: A STUDY OF INDONESIAN TRANSNATIONAL MUSLIMS IN NEW YORK CITY by PUTUT WIDJANARKO has been approved for the School of Telecommunications and the Scripps College of Communication by Drew McDaniel Professor of Telecommunications Gregory J. Shepherd Dean, Scripps College of Communication WIDJANARKO, PUTUT, Ph.D., June 2007, Telecommunications HOMELAND, IDENTITY AND MEDIA: A STUDY OF INDONESIAN TRANSNATIONAL MUSLIMS IN NEW YORK CITY (415 pp.) Director of Dissertation: Drew McDaniel This dissertation describes an attempt to understand the complex process of how Indonesian Muslims in New York City negotiate their cultural identities. This dissertation gravitates around the concept of transnationalism, which perceives that contemporary immigrants form and maintain multi-stranded social and cultural transnational links to the societies of the country of origin, chiefly thanks to advancement of media, communication and transportation technologies. Applying the non-obvious multi-sited ethnography approach (Marcus, 1999), I explore the dynamic process of how the deterritorialized Indonesians strive to reterritorialize their culture in the new cultural context, such as manifested in the establishment of the Indonesian mosque with its various Islamic activities and the reenactment of Indonesian cultural practices. Subsequently I explain how various forms of media are produced, circulated, and consumed in the Indonesian Muslim community. The study concludes with several important points.
