...spite of his affinity to the community, Samshak has moved the Atma out of the Castle Square Project--for his business was dismally lacking. He had originally hoped to engage in a system of mutual aid with the community, but, as it turned out, nearly all the crowds were coming from the outside. The loss to vandalism was coupled with the more important loss of audiences afraid to go into the South End.

More constructively, she began a quiet and highly successful campaign to win diplomatic allies among the new nations of Africa, offering them "friends" instead of "experts" and "shared goods" instead of aid...
...pictures, Caltech Graduate Student Jack Griffith, 26, was well aware that his task would be extremely difficult.

In addition, the molecules would be distorted or destroyed by the instrument's electron beam before they could be photographed. Then how could they be photographed...

Presently, all first year students are guaranteed some sort of financial aid; older graduate students usually finance their second through fifth years in one of three ways: accepting outside scholarships like the National Science Foundation grants; taking teaching fellow positions; or competing for Harvard scholarships (primarily on the basis of first-term first-year grades). There is no limit on the number of grants a student can take; several accept grants and then become teaching fellows, doubling...
