...loans. The SEC charged that this was an improper use of Starr's assets, and that Starr had left out key information, such as the fact that Sitco was losing money, in its 10-K reports.

"There are armies of willing, perfectly controlled soldiers," he told the assorted Senators and Representatives.

In designing nuclear accelerators, for example, scientists must take into account the fact that subatomic particles whipped to speeds approaching the velocity of light will appear to increase in mass. Furthermore, particles called muons, which at rest exist for only very short spans of time before decaying into other particles, are found to live far longer at high velocities...
