for instance it releases mr. sisulu without conditions yet his son <unk> a newspaper editor is restricted to his home much of the day and is n't allowed to work as a journalist |
the anc <unk> to keep up pressure on the government |
<unk> yesterday called on foreign governments to increase sanctions against pretoria and urged supporters inside the country to continue <unk> emergency restrictions and racial <unk> known as apartheid |
we can not wait on the government to make changes at its own pace mr. sisulu said |
because the anc remains banned both the government which approved the rally and the <unk> who <unk> it denied it was an anc rally |
they both called it a welcome home gathering |
nevertheless an anc rally by any other name is still an anc rally |
the recently released leaders sat high <unk> a <unk> in one section of the stadium stands |
behind them was a huge anc flag and an even bigger sign that said anc lives anc leads |
next to them was the red flag of the outlawed south african communist party which has long been an anc ally |
in the stands people <unk> anc flags wore anc <unk> sang anc <unk> and <unk> anc <unk> |
today said mr. sisulu the anc has captured the center stage of political life in south africa |
as a police helicopter <unk> overhead mr. sisulu repeated the anc 's demands on the government to create a climate for negotiations release all political <unk> <unk> lift all bans and restrictions on individuals and organizations remove all troops from the black <unk> end the state of emergency and cease all political... |
if these conditions are met he said the anc would be prepared to discuss <unk> its guerrilla activities |
there can be no question of us <unk> abandoning the armed struggle he said |
to date we see no clear indication that the government is serious about negotiations |
all their <unk> are vague |
<unk> a phrase from mr. de <unk> mr. sisulu said let all of us who love this country engage in the task of building a new south africa |
when westinghouse electric corp. <unk> its massive steam <unk> plant in <unk> pa. three years ago it seemed like the company had pulled the plug on its <unk> power generation business |
but now westinghouse is enjoying a <unk> in demand for both steam and combustion <unk> and may even join the growing <unk> of independent electric producers |
and with its new venture with japan 's mitsubishi heavy industries ltd. announced last week it is poised to <unk> growing markets overseas |
for the first time since the mid-1970s westinghouse this year has seen a significant increase in orders for power plants |
most are from independent producers instead of regulated utilities and westinghouse believes it will ride a wave of demand stretching over the next six years |
analysts agree predicting that the revived market could significantly boost westinghouse 's bottom line in coming years |
westinghouse 's earnings could be <unk> enhanced in the mid-1990s or sooner says russell l. <unk> of salomon brothers inc |
the company expects a need for N <unk> of new generation in the u.s. over the next decade |
already this year it has received orders for four <unk> advanced combustion <unk> from florida power & light co. and for two <unk> plants from <unk> energy corp. among others |
westinghouse 's own role as a supplier also is changing |
in the past the company usually took <unk> equity positions in power plants it supplied as a <unk> to close deals |
but last june 's <unk> that westinghouse would put up all of the $ N million to build a new <unk> plant could herald a new age |
westinghouse 's plant will provide electrical power to the southern california edison co. and backup power and steam to the u.s. <unk> & chemical co |
we have n't decided on a strategy yet but we could become an independent producer depending on whether we 're the developer or just the supplier says <unk> stern executive vice president of the company 's energy and utility systems group |
at the same time westinghouse hopes its venture with mitsubishi will help fend off growing competition particularly in the u.s. from such european competitors as asea brown boveri ag siemens ag and british general electric co |
under the agreement westinghouse will be able to purchase smaller combustion <unk> from its japanese partner and package and sell them with its own <unk> and other equipment |
westinghouse also jointly will bid on projects with <unk> giving it an edge in developing asian markets |
in addition the two companies will develop new steam <unk> technology such as the plants ordered by florida power and even <unk> each other 's plants at times to take advantage of currency fluctuations |
even though we 'll still compete against mitsubishi we can also work jointly on some projects and we 'll gain a lot of <unk> flexibility mr. stern contends |
the <unk> venture was designed as a <unk> transaction <unk> any possible antitrust concerns |
westinghouse carefully <unk> the agreement because the justice department earlier this year successfully challenged a proposed steam <unk> joint venture with asea brown boveri |
it is expected that the current surge in demand for new power will be filled primarily by independent producers which unlike utilities are n't regulated and therefore do n't need government approval to construct new plants |
westinghouse expects about half of its new orders for <unk> to come from independent producers for at least the next six years |
despite <unk> of the company 's <unk> and east pittsburgh plants the company believes it has sufficient capacity to meet near-term demand with its much smaller and more efficient manufacturing facilities in north carolina |
still westinghouse acknowledges that demand from independent producers could <unk> if prices for fuel such as natural gas or oil rise sharply or if utilities which have been pressured by regulators to keep down rates are suddenly freed to add significant generating capacity |
even if that scenario occurs westinghouse figures it is prepared |
the company already is <unk> up for a renaissance of nuclear power even though it has n't received an order for a domestic nuclear plant in a decade |
john c. marous chairman and chief executive officer says he expects a commercial order by N for the company 's <unk> nuclear power plant which is under development |
once we see an order we expect it 'll be on line by N |
among the things i learned covering the world series these past few weeks is that the richter scale which measures earthquakes is n't like the one in your <unk> |
a quake that measures two on the richter is n't twice as severe as a one it 's N times worse |
a three is N times N again and so on |
that put the seven of oct. N in perspective for me |
think i 'll buy one of those i survived <unk> after all |
by <unk> standards the show that the oakland athletics put on friday and saturday nights in putting a <unk> swift end to the game 's longest short series rated somewhere between a N and an N |
the boys with the white <unk> on their <unk> might not have made the earth move much but they certainly did some impressive things with <unk> |
the pale <unk> propelled six of <unk> out of the unfriendly <unk> of candlestick park during the two games en route to N and N wins over the san francisco giants |
combined with their two <unk> victories way back on oct. N and N the scores were N and N remember that gave them a sweep of the <unk> series |
the joke here is that the giants lost by de fault |
that 's <unk> correct but a <unk> unfair otherwise |
they showed up but did n't or could n't challenge |
they led for <unk> an inning in the four games and managed to stir their fans only once |
that came in the seventh inning of game four when <unk> N they scored four times and brought their big heat will clark and kevin mitchell to the plate with one out and a <unk> on |
but clark <unk> out to short right field and mitchell 's drive to left was caught on the warning track by <unk> henderson as N sets of <unk> <unk> as one |
i went out to <unk> burns the a 's <unk> and told him that we were n't <unk> <unk> let this guy beat us said oakland <unk> terry <unk> of the decisive confrontation with mitchell the national league 's <unk> <unk> king |
i told him to make mitchell reach for everything and that 's what we did |
the ball he hit was n't a strike |
if it had been he <unk> hit it out |
but if the a 's had n't won in four they would have prevailed in five or six or seven |
the best team won this series which is more unusual than it may sound |
baseball ai n't football where the good teams beat up on the bad ones |
the best baseball teams win six of N games and the worst win four of N |
without becoming overly contentious allow me to suggest that several recent <unk> of the world according to us as in u.s. might not have ranked no. N in many polls |
that list includes last season 's <unk> the los angeles <unk> who rode a <unk> home run by kirk <unk> and two <unk> pitching performances by <unk> <unk> to a <unk> <unk> over a <unk> bothered oakland crew |
these a 's however got few grades as low as b on their N report card |
they led the major <unk> in regular-season wins with N and <unk> the toronto blue <unk> four games to one for the american league <unk> before <unk> their <unk> rivals |
the <unk> testimony to their domination of the <unk> <unk> came from giants ' manager roger craig after his team had fallen in game three to a <unk> <unk> that tied a <unk> series record |
asked what he would do differently on the <unk> craig allowed that he might play his <unk> deeper maybe on the other side of the <unk> |
the a 's offensive showing in the series got an a as in <unk> |
their N total bases broke a record for a four-game set and their nine home runs tied one |
eight oakland players hit <unk> with <unk> dave henderson getting two both on friday |
<unk> henderson the <unk> <unk> man had nine hits and set or tied four-game series marks for <unk> N and stolen bases N |
the sole a not to homer was cleanup <unk> mark <unk> their regular-season leader with N and he contributed five hits plus a <unk> <unk> play on a ground ball in game three that stopped a giant rally while the issue still was in doubt |
think i 'll <unk> my image get this changed to a <unk> <unk> the big first <unk> saturday night <unk> the gold bat he wears on a neck chain |
even with that power show though the oakland series ' star certified by the most valuable player award was a <unk> dave stewart |
he shut out the giants on five hits in game one and allowed three runs on five hits in seven <unk> friday after the <unk> break caused by the earthquake |
stewart 's honor was a nice note on a couple of grounds |
one was that despite his N regular-season wins over the past three seasons in the land beyond the late news he has been <unk> by his <unk> <unk> and missed out on prizes that might have been his due |
the other is that he 's an oakland native and lifted residents ' spirits by his visits to <unk> areas last week |
afterward as the a 's <unk> their victory with beer they <unk> with traditional champagne <unk> in <unk> to the quake victims stewart said he thought his <unk> ring would <unk> his individual <unk> |
give me four or five more series with these guys and i do n't care if i ever win a <unk> young he said in reference to baseball 's <unk> award |
indeed the possibility of an a 's ring cycle <unk> a <unk> was a major topic of <unk> discussion saturday so much so that <unk> <unk> the team 's general manager felt obliged to <unk> it |
people change teams change he cautioned |
it 's easier to get worse than better in this game |
he might have added an interesting historical fact the last series sweep by the cincinnati <unk> came in N which also was the first year of baseball player free agency |
it was widely predicted that free agency would allow the glamorous big market teams to <unk> the best talent but quite the opposite has occurred twelve different clubs have won titles in the N seasons since its advent |
the number includes such <unk> <unk> as well oakland |
the rationale for responding to your customers ' needs faster than the competition can is clear your company will benefit in terms of market share customer satisfaction and profitability |
in fact managers today are probably more aware of speed as a competitive <unk> than ever before |
however for many managing speed does not come naturally |
most of us grew up <unk> in the <unk> <unk> makes waste and do n't cut corners ideas that seem to run counter to the concept of managing speed says dean <unk> vice president for product integrity at grumman corp |
but in the real world you learn that speed and quality are not a <unk> |
