Triumphantly, Egyptian intelligence sources then revealed that the young German had been betrayed by Sabri, who, while pretending to work for the Israelis, had for four years fed them phony information. Espionage sophisticates wondered why, if Sabri had really been such a successful double agent, the Egyptians had not managed to catch Hüttenmeister without exposing him. But then intelligence is apt to get fairly intricate, in the Middle East even more than elsewhere. So far this year, Syria has sentenced to death a Lebanese Protestant missionary for broadcasting information to Israel from transmitters hidden inside statues, and Lebanon...
...High Dam will accomplish all this by harnessing the Nile's flood-that annual, June-to-October inundation of silt and water that since the beginning of history has brought life and uncertainty to Lower Egypt. Not only does the rain-fed flood vary in volume year by year, producing the "seven fat years and seven lean years," but at best spills some 9 billion gallons of fresh water into the sea annually, often leaving Egypt's cash crops of cotton and cane thirsty between floods...
...crystal puts out from 200 to 400 bursts of ultrasound every second. The silent intervals give it time to pick up the echoes, which are then converted into electrical impulses and fed into an oscilloscope. More complex scanners can give the equivalent of a three-dimensional picture. On the oscilloscope screen, the ultrasound echoes make a picture that may look like Lord Cornwallis' breastworks at Yorktown. Additional circuitry can make the oscilloscope hold the picture long enough for the doctor to snap a photograph...
...audience gave Swoboda a standing ovation. I think it was a nice gesture. In his two years here, Swoboda, who is responsible for programming, has lead the HRO far along the slick path of musical cowardice. Conceiving the HRO as a minor-league Boston Symphony, he has fed it music easily comprehensible both to the orchestra members and to audiences of the Boston Symphony type. What is so frustrating and annoying is that he did not attempt more...
...Harry Truman a traitor, Crandall finally roared, "Shut up!" He handles 50 to 60 calls a night, and the telephone exchange tots up another 10,000-15,000 "busy" signals, presumed to be callers that can't get through. Both his voice and his caller's are fed onto tape, with a built-in seven-second delay before the sound goes on the air. This gives Crandall time to hit the small blue panic button on his desk in time to cut off any deliberate obscenity or accidental vulgarity committed by a caller...
