However arguable their proposed alternatives may be, none of the leading Senate critics of the President's foreign policy can be fairly accused of being isolationist. Republican Jacob Javits of New York-the only Senator who has been cited by name in Nixon's attacks-wants to curb the President's war-making powers. But Javits sided with his party's leader last week in voting against Senator Mike Mansfield's amendment to reduce U.S. forces in Europe by half. John Stennis of Mississippi, who shares Javits' views on war powers, is generally...
Charles Bush and Kelly Jacob, first year M.B.A. students and co-chairman of the AASU, refused to comment on Fouraker's statement last night...
...fairness to the dean, we're going to have to privately study his proposal more deeply and clearly, perhaps meeting with him to talk about it." Jacob said. He added that the AASU will release a statement next week...
...which was later found to carry specific amino acids floating in the cytoplasm to the ribosomes; this substance became known as transfer RNA. Then in the early 1960s, biologists discovered a third kind of RNA?shortly after its existence had been theorized by Jacques Monod and François Jacob of France's Pasteur Institute. Called messenger RNA, it provided the missing piece in the molecular puzzle. It was formed on an uncoiled strip of DNA in the nucleus, imprinted with the particular "message" encoded in that portion?or gene?of the staircase, and then sent off with these instructions...
...body cell of an individual organism is identical; this DNA contains all the information necessary to construct the whole organism. Why then, in a human being, for example, is a liver cell so different from a hair cell, a heart cell so different from a skin cell? The answer, Jacob and Monod theorized in 1961, is that only a small percentage of the genes in any cell are giving instructions for the operation of that particular cell. The rest are "turned off" by protein repressers, which wrap themselves around long stretches of DNA and prevent them from transferring their coded...
