...quite a remarkable achievement," says David Howekamp of the Environmental Protection Agency. Adds Richard Ayres, chairman of the National Clean Air Coalition: "It's a bold attempt to grapple with the real pollution problems." The EPA is expected to approve the Los Angeles plan and use it as a blueprint for a federal program that will include cities like Chicago and New York...
...snippet of DNA might read ACGGTAGAT, a message that researchers can decipher rather easily. It codes for a sequence of three of the 20 varieties of amino acids that constitute the building blocks of proteins. But the entire genome of even the simplest organism dwarfs that snippet. The genetic blueprint of the lowly E. coli bacterium, for one, is more than 4.5 million base pairs long. For a microscopic yeast plant, the length is 15 million units. And in a human being, the genetic message is some 3 billion letters long...
...report goes beyond Shattuck's previous initiatives in outlining a blueprint for specific changes in federal policy...
...Olympics seemed not so much a dream of what could be but a blueprint for what will be. Although the Soviet Union, East Germany and the United States finished one through three, respectively, in the medal hunt, a bevy of other countries--including the host country, South Korea--were not far behind in the medal standings...
...idea of an electronic virus was born in the earliest days of the computer era. In fact, it was Computer Pioneer John von Neumann who laid out the basic blueprint in a 1949 paper titled "Theory and Organization of Complicated Automata." If most of his colleagues found the idea that computer programs might multiply too fantastic to be taken seriously, they can be forgiven, for the paper predated the first commercial electronic computers by several years. But a handful of scientists quietly pursued Von Neumann's ideas, keeping them alive in the scientific literature until they sprang to life...
