They started by barraging their rubidium atoms with lasers, slowing them to a crawl (heat is really just the motion of atoms and molecules; slowing therefore equals cooling). Then they put the atoms in a magnetic "bottle" that allowed the faster-moving, more energetic atoms to escape; those left behind were cooler. Finally, in a leap of ingenuity that enabled this scientific team to outflank its rivals, the Boulder scientists rotated the magnetic field so that the few cold atoms that were leaking through a weak point in the bottle couldn't find this one escape route...
...idealist editor fails to describe the nature of contemporary chain gang labor. Instead, Altman compares the disease-ridden prison camps of early 20th century America to the most horrible places of extermination know to recorded history. Alabama prisoners who today collect waste from the roadsides, and who suffer through heat, cold and embarrassment, face only the indignity which they brought upon themselves, rather then the certain and horrible death which millions of innocents endured merely because they were born.

Fistfights will break out in parking lots as thousands of motorists compete for 2,000 slots. So many hikers will suffer from exhaustion and other heat-related problems that park rangers will be forced to practice triage, leaving the least seriously affected vacationers at the bottom of the canyon to fend for themselves. Says a harassed park official: "We are being loved nearly to death...
...Auburn Street, the "Gold Coast" dorms catered to the lifestyles of the children of the rich and famous Claverly Hall, now annexed housing, and Randolph and Westmorely Halls, which later became part of Adams House, were the late-nineteenth century lap of luxury: spacious rooms, private baths, steam heat...
