These are of course isolated instances; but the fact remains that there is little consideration for Central Kitcheners. Vanilla is a popular flavor; but its constant repetition is just the "bland leading the bland," and macaroni with lemon meringue pie is--to phrase it softly--a highly original combination...
...work which would allow him to shine somewhat more than the Haydn. But he has never imposed his personality upon the music or the audience, and it seemed entirely appropriate for him to end with a concerto. The mature musician is satisfied with participating, and does not need the constant glare of the spotlight...
Principles & Rules. In his speech for Law Day 1958, Harvard's Dean Pound makes the careful distinction between Law and laws. Says he: "The vital, the enduring part of the law is in principles -starting points for reasoning-not in rules. Principles remain relatively constant or develop along constant lines. Rules have relatively short lives. They do not develop; they are repealed and are superseded by other rules...
...Heisenberg reportedly proposes to add a third unit of measure to both Planck's constant ("the quantum of action'') and the fixed velocity of light, which Einstein used in formulating his Special Theory of Relativity, the structure of space and time. Said Heisenberg: "There must be still a third such natural unit of measurement which is conceived in present-day atomic physics as a length of the atomic order of magnitude-for example, the size of the diameter of simple atomic nuclei. The goal of atomic theory would be reached if one succeeded in stating a mathematical...
...charged electron and the positively charged electron (positron). Reason is his discovery of two key particle ratios: that between the mass of mu and pi mesons, and that between the mass of the proton and sigma hyperon. Each proves to equal TT divided by four; this produces a new constant (1.12888), based on the inverse of the square root of TT divided by four, which Grebe calls "g." This tool "opens the door," produces a periodic table of particles similar to Mendeleev's 19th century periodic table of chemical elements. To compile it, Grebe assigns...
