Stung by passage of a congressional nuclear-freeze resolution, President Reagan took pains to describe the possible softening of the Soviet position as "encouraging." Said he: "We're going to give this serious consideration, as we do any proposal that they make." But Reagan added that a fuller analysis of the ambiguity-ridden Soviet plan would have to await the return to Geneva of U.S. Negotiator Paul Nitze...
...years ago Vince Fuller, a clean-cut C.M.U. junior known then as a computer prankster, used his terminal to sneak into Columbia University's computer system via an electronic link between the two schools. He could have damaged Columbia's main computer by exploiting a "bug," or error, in the operating system, but instead he quickly notified authorities of the problem. Two months ago a more diabolical hacker broke into C.M.U.'s DEC-20 system and misused an authorization code to destroy student, faculty and researcher files. It took university programmers 23 hours to restore the lost...
...Cleveland Orchestra. Under the late George Szell, the Clevelanders were honed into an ensemble of breathtaking precision, eminently suited to the music of Mozart. During the regime of Conductor Lorin Maazel (1972-82), Szell's high technical standards were maintained, but the sound of the orchestra became fuller, richer and more flexible, and thus up to the challenge of the romantic repertory; by the end of Maazel's tenure, the Cleveland Orchestra was the best-sounding band in the land. Today, standards have unavoidably slipped a bit as the orchestra awaits the arrival in 1984-85 of Maazel...

In Charlie Company, as Goldman and Fuller tell it, the was as fought was simply futile. "It could have been over in six months," recalls one angry survivor. "Easy We could have took the 57,000 troops that got killed and put them all in a line behind tanks and APCs instead and just started at one end and walked on across the country...
...Soviet Union and the Arms Race, David Holloway tries to map the continuity in Soviet military policy, drawing from it a fuller perception of Soviet designs. Holloway seeks to put the rise of Soviet military power in its historical context; then he extrapolates. The book is not an analysis of Soviet foreign policy--it treats only its military aspect--but nevertheless makes a valuable contribution to the growing literature on the nuclear debate...
