This new technique will allow geneticists to study the detailed operation of a single gene without chemical interference from neighboring genes. It may also encourage the development of genetic engineering-the artificial control of animal and plant characteristics by manipulating genes...
There were also additional risks. Apollo 12, like Apollo 11 and 10, started its space voyage on a "free return" trajectory toward the moon. In the event of engine failure, such a path would allow the spacecraft to be whipped around the moon by lunar gravity and hurled back safely to the earth. Some 31 hours after liftoff, however, Apollo 12's situation was changed drastically. Conrad fired the 20,500-lb.-thrust service propulsion engine and sent his ship into a "hybrid" trajectory. The new flight path was necessary to set the astronauts down at their landing site...
...play soccer on the broad deck of the largest ship, the British bulk carrier Jnvercargill. They attend church services on the West German motorship Nordwind and watch movies on the Bulgarian freighter Vasil Levsky. The Polish freighter Djakarta even prints stamps for the marooned vessels.

They meet first in some place called "the Radcliffe Library." then again at a Dunster House musical. Harvard will not allow Paramount Pictures to shoot scenes inside buildings other than the rink, so Dunster House and other interiors will be simulated at Fordham University, City College of New York, andin New York movie studios...
...members of SDS would like to think. This issue concerns the speckle skills involved in the craft, mechanization and its effect on the craft, and-the resultant effect on wages, and finally the collective bargaining procedures involved in bringing about changes in hiring and promotion practices. SDS will not allow, however, for the existence of these complexities. Nor will they wait for labor negotiations to take place during the first week in December. As usual, the issue must be settled Now even at the risk of disrupting the University. And, as usual. SDS presents some cosmic notion which links...
