...seeking an unprecedented fourth in 1970. A Senate seat is even less likely. One New York Senate seat will be voted on this fall, while for the other, Rockefeller will soon appoint a successor to the late Robert Kennedy. With his limitless fortune, Rockefeller is not dependent on the normal political bases, however. He could thus retire in 1970 and still, at 64, go after the presidential nomination in 1972, assuming, of course, that he would be opposing President Humphrey and not President Nixon. Though he is obviously wearied by his third try for the nomination, Rocky did not veto...
...linden-bug. They also found that a dose as much as 10,000 times the amount of DMF required to produce sterility would cause no other harmful effects. So they figured that a male linden-bug treated with a massive quantity of DMF might be able to lead a normal life, yet pass enough of the chemical to females during mating to sterilize them...
Sterilization in All. To test their premise, the Czechs dripped solutions containing 1, 10 and 100 micrograms of DMF on three groups of ten male linden-bugs, then placed each group in a separate container with ten normal females. As the bugs mated, eggs laid by the females were carefully watched. None of those from females confined with males treated with 100 micrograms of DMF ever hatched. Few eggs from the 10-microgram group and only half from the 1-microgram group eventually hatched into larvae. Analysis of the females that had mated with the 100-microgram males proved that...
...hardness of their rock is definitely what first strikes one. In nearly all their numbers Moon is smashing at his drums keeping up a racing beat that is about 3 times the normal rock beat. He specially designed a set of drums for himself inscribed in black and orange psychedelic lettering with "Patent-Moon the Exploding Drummer" and he hits them with rapid strokes flicking his wrists from side to side--and these days when he throws his sticks at the drums he doesn't bother to catch them. Similarly, Townshend is different from other guitarists most obviously...
...Central or Golden Gate Park, generated as much sound. But the sound was not amplified, and was dissipated in the open air. A trombonist sitting in front of a tuba player might be a bit deaf for an hour or so after a concert; then his hearing returned to normal. A microphone hooked up to a public-address system did not appreciably increase the hearing hazard. What did was multiple mikes and speakers, and the installation of internal mikes in such instruments as guitars and bouzoukia...
