...evocative, varied and beautiful," Sovetskaya Kultura added a final cautionary nudge before Soviet admen got too carried away by brain-storming in the Madison Avenue manner: "Capitalistic advertising is noisy and offensive. It stuns a customer. And its sole aim is to get rid of the goods by any method available." As sample of the kind of "persistent, shrill" U.S. slogans Russia does not want, the editor cited what he said was a U.S. slogan, although this will be news in Atlanta: "Coca-Cola is good for your body and your country...
Once the electrons have been accelerated or "ponderated," the aim is to direct a beam into the experimental area where measurements can be made of the unusual properties and inter-actions. One method already devised is to place a target in the part of the electron beam; this will transform the electrons into X-rays of very high energy. Because they are uncharged, these rays will not be deflected by the magnetic field of the accelerator and will continue on a straight tangential line into the experimental area. Physicists would also like to be able to deflect a beam...
...chief difference between the cyclotron and the Electron Accelerator, according to Preston, aside from the obvious fact that the former works with protons and the latter with electrons, is one of method. In the cyclotron the protons are subjected to a constant magnetic field and spiral out in ever-increasing orbits; in the election accelerator, on the other hand, the orbit is constant and the magnetic field is increased in order to keep the electrons in a stable path. The cyclotron, Preston says, unlike the C.E.A., can properly be called an "accelerator," for the velocity...
...President and his allies are interested in preserving appearances, their best bet is to find a method of graceful retreat. But until the dim day when they decide that Chiang's islands are expendable, they should not attempt to squelch or denigrate public opinion on this matter...
...grievances with NSA are not on policy, but on method. Does not this slapdash method detract from, if not nullify, the meaning of what NSA does? Can it really be said that American students favor the release of some obscure Algerian student leader-rioter now in jail? Sure we are for freedom, but who is the guy? Maybe he threw a bomb. But you have said you wanted him released...
