...this approach, which will cost an extra 5? per package, after trying out 24 different methods. It found that consumers liked the idea that any tampering with the can is especially easy to spot. They also found it simple to open. Pretty simple, anyway. For klutzes, there is a diagram showing how to remove...
...found in Lebanon. The U.S. had provided the Israelis with two models of the bomb, both of which work on the same principle. The Mark 20 Rockeye scatters eight-inch steel darts and the Cluster Bomb Unit 58 sprays bomblets armed with a charge that explodes on impact (see diagram). Because the bombs indiscriminately blast an area several hundred feet in diameter, they are clearly unsuited for use in civilian neighborhoods...

The "supply side" of the economy would be so stimulated that before long the Government would gain more revenue than it lost through cutting taxes.

...uproar was over the Administration's decision to build the so-called neutron bomb, which is designed to kill as many people as a regular hydrogen bomb ten times its size, and yet cause less damage to nearby buildings (see diagram). U.S. military planners say that small neutron warheads installed on howitzer shells or Lance missiles, which have ranges of 20 and 70 miles, respectively, are the best way to deter or counter the most feared conventional attack by Soviet forces: a massive tank assault across Central Europe. (Warsaw Pact countries have 44,000 tanks compared with NATO...

His solution is ROBERT BURGESS a familiar piece of pedagogical gear: a blackboard diagram. The way Adler uses it, however, would make less self-confident teachers quail. For his goal, it turns out, is not to illustrate a point but to start an argument. To do so, Adler returns to Garrick's first question, but adds a new twist. The blackboard diagram contains conflicting statements about the nature of beauty. Position...
