More zealous U.N.I.P. members are talking of extending the campaign to the rest of the country; they also say that they will soon start restyling white, Asian and half-caste girls as well. But among top party leaders, cooler heads seem likely to prevail. "Women want to look as attractive as possible," says one government minister, who insists that the back of the knee is a particularly unattractive part of the female anatomy. "These miniskirts and things are bound to pass with time...
...Cooler Turrets. Although Daisy intends to confine its output of V-L products to .22-caliber rifles and perhaps shotguns the military implications are obvious. Daisy engineers have already shot V-L bullets at speeds as high as 3,000 ft. per sec.-well within the performance range of high-powered conventional rifles. V-Ls can be fired chemically and electrically, as well as with hot-air jets, making them adaptable to a large variety of weapons systems. Elimination of cartridges would also solve a troublesome problem in tank turrets, where hot shell casings pile up quickly during combat...
Even after Mariner 2 determined in 1962 that the surface temperature of Venus was about 800° F., some scientists expressed the hope that life might exist on its cooler mountaintops or among the water clouds and ice crystals believed to exist in the Venusian atmosphere. But the yellow hue of Venusian clouds has long caused University of Arizona Astronomer Gerard Kuiper, 61, to doubt that they were composed of water in any form...
...crew will practice for 45 minutes, then stroke silently along the banks up the lake to the start. As they pass the crowd there will be some murmurs, but most of the crowd's attention will be on the race in progress. Or their date. Or beer-cooler...
Unlike the spectra of other quasars, which demonstrate one red shift in their emission lines and sometimes another in their absorption lines (caused by the passage of their light through cooler matter on the way to the observer), the spectrum of 0237-23 displays three red shifts. In addition to the expected shift of its emission lines, Astronomers Greenstein and Maarten Schmidt (TIME cover, March 11, 1966) have found its absorption lines have two distinctly different and lower red shifts. Astronomer Greenstein believes that they are caused by light from the central body passing through two shells of gas rapidly...
