...This procedure proved to be most satisfactory. The two nights were spent most comfortably, thanks to TIME, and we were able to catch up on current affairs, even though we were living in a very small shelter, about 800 miles from the North Pole with a real cool minus 38 degrees temperature...
...Wild One has Marlon Brando ditching Mark Anthony's toga for a pair of greasy blue jeans and a leather jacket. In the process he picks up a flashy motorcycle and some cool bop talk, and accompanied by a grizzly crew sporting well oiled side-burns, Brando roars to a stop in a one-car town. For a moment it looks like a desperadoes-shooting-up-the-village western with over-powered motorcycles replacing the trusty steed. But what might have been little more than a modern horse opera turns into a brutally realistic blend of tension and violence forceful...
...call you a mope. I mean your pupils ain't woikin' right!' So I says, 'Oh, yeah? What's wrong wit' the way Rocky Marciano is woikin'?' " How was the respiration? "I didn't have none. I kept . . . cool." Was Al's tension all right? "You bet your life it was. As long as I was payin' so much for the checkup, I listened to every woid he said . . . The most disappointin' part . . . was when he finished and said: 'Come on, kid, you've had that...
...enthusiastically cited by more imaginative geologists as the cause of glaciers, can actually produce enough dust to blot out much of the sun's radiant heat. Krakatoa's ash, sent sky high in 1833, cut 10 percent of France's sunlight for three years. But reductions in radiant energy cool the equator more than the poles, cutting temperature differences which create storms. Only an increase of the sun's general heating power will yield more snow, the sole food of glaciers. Yet if the sun's heat increases too much, the glaciers will melt...
...Climatic Change agree that it is corpuscular radiation--such as comes from sun spot cruptions--that causes climatic variation. For corpuscles are charged, and are attracted to the earth's magnetic poles. When there are more sun spots than usual, the poles warm up; when there are fewer, they cool off, and glaciers can form. The sun spot theorics, explored mathematically and physically in Climatic Change, explain the relation of terrestial weather to the eleven year sun spot cycle, explain the fact that North American winters are colder than European winters at the same latitude, and they demonstrate that when...
