Probably the most conservative way of determining one's standing is to take the lower of the two extreme numerical grades within each "classification" you receive, and calculate the average.

Schrödinger has found this in an "affine" geometry, which deals with pure concepts in their essence, not with measurement in the ordinary sense. He now claims to have "unified" gravitation with...

...while Lewis gained a political victory. Also ready to pour through the wall, at another point, is the farm bloc.

For days, appeasement seemed to be the probable policy: indications were that the Administration might add 5% to the Little Steel formula in a strategic withdrawal. But as the week began the Administration firmed up: WLB voted to hold on hard behind the Little Steel formula.
