...disproportion seems to be based on economic as well as ethnic factors. Air crashes, which entail millions of dollars in losses and mainly affect the affluent middle class, especially outside the U.S., command far more coverage than less glamorous causes of violent death. On the same day that the New York Times was giving front-page play to both air accidents last month, it carried three paragraphs at the bottom of an inside page about rebel action in Kabul, Afghanistan, that killed twelve people and wounded 17. Also in the crash aftermath, an alleged coup attempt in Burkina Faso that...

The Tevatron, an accelerator at Fermilab, near Chicago, that smashes together protons and antiprotons, is still the most powerful collider in the world, and the proposed superconducting supercollider, planned for Texas, will be more powerful still. Proton-antiproton collisions entail more energy than electron- positron collisions and thus are more likely to generate previously undiscovered particles. But proton-antiproton impacts generate more subatomic debris, which makes it harder to study the properties of individual particles carefully. For what Amaldi calls "precision physics," Europe could soon...

...shift in U.S. policy toward diplomatic compromise in all three of the principal regional conflicts. In Nicaragua the Reagan Administration wanted to overthrow the Sandinistas; the contras were a means to that all-or- nothing end. The Bush Administration, by contrast, is seeking a political settlement that would entail some sort of power sharing between the Sandinistas and their opponents. During consultations on Cambodia in Brunei last week, Secretary of State James Baker made it clear that the U.S. is more willing than it was a year ago to accept the current Vietnamese-backed leaders in Phnom Penh as part...
