...party system, so neither of us can afford to take such a great risk that we endanger our administrations. Both the Congress and the Japanese Diet, while maintaining compassion for each other's position, should try to measure the depth of the water and to use radar to detect the existence of icebergs so we will not drown or sink. If we navigate carefully, and if we show strong resolve, no problem is impossible to solve...
...warfare would make it difficult to conclude arms control agreements, Meselson expresses skepticism with the assumptions of this last, commonly held view. "You don't conclude agreements with Russia because you trust the Russians. That's not the way you make these agreements. You do it because you can detect violations," he says. "The converse of that argument is that if only the Russians are innocent of this we can trust them? That's not the way to do treaties. It never was. It never is, It's a phony argument. That's not the point. The point...
Alzheimer's disease would be far easier to treat and detect if doctors knew what caused it. The fact that the disease often occurs in several members of the same family suggests that a genetic factor is at work. This factor "is most prominent in very early onset cases," says University of Minnesota Psychiatrist Leonard Heston...
...Florida in March 1982, it says that cocaine and marijuana seizures there are up 54% and 23% respectively, drug arrests have risen by 27%, and the street value of intercepted dope amounts to around $5 billion. Smugglers, however, have risen to the challenge by trafficking in smaller, harder-to-detect loads and by moving some off-loading operations to other places, including California and the Atlantic Coast as far north as Nova Scotia...
Another benefit, stemming from wobbles in Pioneer's flight path, may be the detection of a long-suspected tenth planet or perhaps even an unseen nearby star. Both possibilities have been suggested as the source of the gravitational tugging that is causing the strange perturbations in the orbits of Uranus and Neptune. Scientists are even speculating that by carefully following Pioneer's movements they may detect effects of long-sought gravity waves. Postulated by Einstein's general theory of relativity, these waves are thought to be the carrier of the gravitational force, just as the photon...
