...lives of all Americans, as well as over the businesses they operate and the groups they join. The Federal Government now has rules ranging from the establishment of whisky tax rates to the placement of toilets on construction sites, from the design of atomic power plants to the milk content of ice cream, from foreign arms sales to childproof tops on aspirin bottles. A single clause tucked away in the Federal Register of regulations (this year's version has already grown to a mountainous 32,000 pages) can put a small-town manufacturer out of business or rejuvenate an industry...
...order Jackson's exile limited to five days. The Yankees won five straight games without their temperamental star. Jackson returned to the team unrepentant, telling reporters that he did not feel he had done anything wrong. That renewed Martin's rage; he approached reporters to excoriate the outfielder. Not content with that, he again tracked down writers waiting for a team flight and delivered the fatal lines. Jackson and Steinbrenner, said Martin, "deserve each other. One's a born liar and the other's convicted...
...windows"?realist photos of fact, including the facts of photography seen as a system. In short, the romantic vs. the realist: but it is not a very strict dichotomy, as Szarkowski himself stresses.

Her children either dance through the photographs with wild gestures and extreme expressions or stare soulfully out in an effort to grab the viewer's attention. Each individual picture is meant to bowl one over with its content; Levitt follows more in the tradition of social documentarists Lewis Hine and Jacob Riis in her approach. Evans' photographs work on a much more subtle plane. He prepares carefully planned sequences and hopes the effect of repeated exposures will work to move the viewer...
Even after fertilization, doctors have no assurance that the egg will divide; again the culture medium must be carefully controlled. Some researchers think that the highest rate of success could be achieved if the content of the solution were continually altered as the cells go through stages of division. Finally, when the egg becomes a blastocyst or shortly before, it is ready for implanting. One way this can be done is by picking up the egg, which is still no bigger than the dot at the end of this sentence, with a tiny hollow tube, or pipette, then inserting...
