...Bergler advises analysts not to attempt the impossible, and suggests these criteria by which they can judge whether a prospective patient offers reasonable hope of cure: he must have inner guilt feelings that can be put to use in treatment; he must accept the treatment voluntarily and actively want to change; he must give up his habit of using homosexuality as a weapon against his family, which (unconsciously) he always hates. The analyst must not begin by attacking the homosexuality head on-or the patient will at once cry that he is being persecuted. Yet the analyst must convince...
...Eisenhower team will probably find Governor Herter much more attuned to its policies than was Mr. Hoover, and one suspects, on the basis of his record, that he will express a more internationally oriented attitude in the inner councils of the Administration than did his predecessor. While Herter does not possess the experience nor outlook designed to make him another Chester Bowles, he is at least free of the burden which former President Hoover must have been...
...Olympic creed, a loner who has consecrated his life to the task of tossing a 16-lb. ball of steel farther than anyone-including Parry O'Brien -has tossed it before.

To warm up for a contest he often uses a sort of self-hypnosis, with tape recordings...
Fiber optics derives its name from its use of hair-thin strands of optical glass as light carriers. Light entering an ordinary clear glass or plastic rod is reflected over and over again from the inner surface until it emerges again at the far end. This familiar principle causes the rod to act as a "light pipe." Dr. Kapany conceived the idea of bunching thousands of microscopic glass rods, each of which would transmit a single point of light. The bundle of points of light should form an image in much the same way the pattern of ink dots...
...what has attracted attention to Simone Weil, more than her sometimes foolish, sometimes heroic life, is her inner struggle, on which she reported in books such as Waiting for God, Gravity and Grace. Her Notebooks, now published in English for the first time, are probably the most personal account of that struggle. If some of the jottings in these two volumes make her seem like the lead scout of the troubled lost battalion of agnosticism, many more confirm a rare and remarkable religious vocation...
