...research conclusions correlate heavy use of marijuana with certain adverse effects. It also reports the spontaneous recurrence of marijuana effect in some users...
...THINGS can effect change at Radcliffe: pressure and guilt. (The 'Cliffe's too poor to afford justice.) Sometimes enough of either will work, but it usually takes a mixture. Black Cliffies skillfully mixed the two at Fay House this week, and got what they wanted...
...phenomenon was not lost on Terrill, who is chief of the Agriculture Department's Sheep and Fur Animal Re search Branch at Beltsville, Md. If the effect could be produced only when the sheep's wool was long, he reasoned, the fibers could easily be pulled, instead of sheared from the animal. And the un skilled farm labor needed for the simplified job would earn only about $2.50 per hour, sharply reducing costs to the wool industry. Taking up the project at Terrill's suggestion, Agriculture Biologist Ethel Dolnick and Physiologist Ivan Lindahl began feeding varying amounts...
...great a dose either killed or sickened the sheep, and too little failed to produce the desired effect. But the researchers soon discov ered that a dose of about nine milligrams for every pound of the sheep's body weight produced just the right result. The drug affected the wool fiber only where it is produced, in follicles below the surface of the skin, and acted for about 24 hours before being dissipated by the body. During this period, cell growth was retarded, producing thinner than normal segments on each fiber before normal growth resumed. Six or seven days...
...Aristotle, tragedy's effect was tripartite; it moved from pity to terror to catharsis. By those tenets, as valid as they are venerable, Bernard Malamud's Pulitzer Prize novel The Fixer misses greatness by a third. It has the first two requisites, but it omits any purge of the emotions.

By definition, the film of The Fixer can aspire to be only two-thirds...
