...John's Gospel where the narrative describing the discovery of Christ's resurrection begins. But it has a few half-concealed implications that are wide-eyed blasphemy for those who see the Last Supper, for instance, as a sacred event. Webber and Rice, with a neat bit of circular logic and some imaginative rewriting, transform the Last Supper into an open fight between Jesus and Judas. While this goes on, the Apostles sit calmly by getting into their cups, oblivious of what is going on, singing a drunken ditty that gets raggeder each time they sing it and that implies...
...offered his philosophy: "I like a swinging chick who grooves on life. One who's kind of warm, wet and wild." In his bachelor digs he installed a bar, mood lighting, a wall-to-wall white fur rug, and a circular bed beneath a mirrored ceiling...

...next conservative cycle will dawn. After all, Plato-boldly and rather sensibly, as it would be well-nigh difficult and unnecessary to prove him wrong-calculated that history returned upon itself in 72,000 years! From internal evidence there is no doubt that for Lipset the periodicity of this circular movement by which the history of the states returned, over and over again, to the same point, is of considerably shorter and more conceivable duration. The point however is that in Lipset-as in other conservative thinkers-such a doctrine of Fate inevitably terminates in the return of what...
...classes will be surprised by Watson's new chapter on DNA duplication. DNA replication is often presented as the unwinding and subsequent rewinding of linear complementary ploy-nucleotide strands of DNA. However, this chapter now offers the Rolling Circle model of DNA replication, a complex model of revolving, duplicating circular DNA strands. Evidence is also given for the transition from linear DNA into these circular strands. Dr. David Dressler, a research fellow in the Watson-Gilbert labs here who was active in developing the Rolling Circle model, explains that the content, which is not necessarily complete and may not even...
