metaphor and literally of ubiquitous concern. The surface of our planet is conceivably liable to be overwhelmed by rubbish. In fact, it might not be entirely fanciful to suspect that one motive of the space program is to find remote stars, uninhabited by olfactorilyendowed life forms, where we might deposit our detritus without offense.The time is surely ripe for what we in the UK call bin lorries (garbage trucks), once loaded, to be fired into outer space. The only difficulty might be the kind of Mirtype space collision of which we are currently only too conscious. Our Glasgow bin lorry drivers are a roaringly projective breed whose sensitivity to smaller traffic is hardly acute. Too many Cleansing Department vehicles in orbit could be hazardous.The visit of our weekly binmen (some Glasgow kids call them midgiemen) has its own special character. They arrive before we are up. They clearly dislike sleepers, and their native woodnotes are as wild as possible. Their shouts make the dog bark. Morning has broken.Apart

 in subsidies for Amtrak over the past 25 years, Congress is in no mood to continue the largess.In fact, the House this session used a carrotandstick approach with the railroad. The carrot: a $2.3 billion bill to provide Amtrak with funds for capital projects and debt reduction. The stick: Amtrak gets the money only if Congress passes a reform bill that cuts Amtrak free of many federal mandates.For example, the bill would allow the railroad to renegotiate the unions' severancepay package. Currently, if Amtrak shuts down a facility, it must pay the laidoff workers (or workers who would have to travel more than 30 miles to a new rail job) as much as six years' full wages and benefits.The provision dates back to Amtrak's origins in 1970. Unions felt Amtrak as set up by Congress was a prescription for failure, says Mr. Black. To convince skeptical unions to go along, Congress awarded them big severance packages.But if Amtrak goes bellyup, those severance agreements may not be worth much. The US General Accounting Off

 er view is simple. After Plath's children authorized the publication of hithertocensored details, she didn't want to delete any information. I wanted to preserve the journals exactly how she wrote them, so you can see her evolution as a writer.Ms. Kukil recognizes that it's hard for a family to have private information about a loved one in circulation. I understand their reluctance. I honor the agreement we make with heirs to withhold materials.In Plath's case, her husband, Ted Hughes, authorized Smith to unseal two journals. After his death, their children approved Kukil's suggestion to publish the 933 pages precisely as Plath banged them out on her Royal manual typewriter or jotted them down in her neat, cursive hand. In her bestknown work, the Aeriel poems, Plath revised her life. Now, Kukil wants to let the world see the unrevised version. My obligation is to get information out  not what I, her mother, or Ted Hughes wanted her to have written. I'm really for full disclosure. The more ... you know, the better

 ank based in Sofia. And the China trade  which supplies the bazaars where suitcase traders often shop  is an important part of that informal commerce. The Turkish economy has an interest in selling Bulgaria these cheap goods and encouraging suitcase traders, says Mr. Bezlov, who estimates that 6,000 suitcase traders make their living on the BulgarianTurkish border.Even if policymakers take action, however, corruption at the border crossing of KapitanAndreevo, Bulgaria, could hamper efforts to crack down.Last year, Turkish police arrested 70 border guards on allegations of accepting bribes and other misconduct, says Guguk.Mr. Bezlov and other experts say the Bulgarian side is better now that EU membership is imminent, but a reporter recently witnessed a driver ask a busload of passengers to contribute 5 leva ($3.27) apiece to speed their passage through Bulgarian customs.Bulgarian officials say suitcase trading is far from being a crisis, however. The problem with suitcase traders ... is similar to the problem whi
