...EXCITEMENT. The first physiologic response is erection of the nipples, from contraction of their muscular fibers. It occurs in both breasts, though not necessarily at the same time. Second, the pattern of veins in the surface of the breasts stands out more clearly, and this may extend to the adjoining chest wall. The breasts gradually increase in size as a result of the filling-up of blood vessels. In addition, the labia minora (the vulva's inner folds) turn bright pink, a process that Dr. Masters compares biologically with changes in female monkeys' exposed "sex skin." A lubricant...

...consumption economy, closed out a record year in which production rose to 9,320,000 units, 20% above the previous year. Because they expect that production in 1966 may lag slightly in unit numbers, all three major companies are considering slight first-quarter cutbacks. Even if they do occur, however, the unit losses will be recouped by bigger sales. More buyers are not only choosing higher-ticket '66 models, but are also adding expensive accessories. Auto air-conditioner sales alone now top $600 million annually...

Because these violent outbursts never occur at the same point on the planet's eccentric orbit, some astronomers have suggested that they are caused by the erratic release of internal heat. This would indicate that Jupiter is behaving like a star as well as a planet-radiating not only energy absorbed from the sun but also giving off heat generated in its own interior. Jupiter's split personality has now been confirmed by a University of Arizona astronomer...

Neither Low nor anyone else can say for certain how Jupiter manufactures its heat. Its internal pressures are not large enough to cause the thermonuclear reactions that occur in a true star. And because less than 1% of Jupiter's mass consists of the heavier elements that are the source of the radioactive isotopes believed to heat the earth's core, radioactivity can contribute only a small fraction of the heat that is apparently generated in the interior...

...creation of a better society. We too often attempt to patch up our threadbare values and outworn purposes; we too rarely dare imagine a society radically different from our own." This moralism has become a commonplace in recent political thought, as has the demonstration that it is unlikely to occur. It is as fatuous to exhort intellectuals to think in utopian terms as it would be to encourage alienated students to embrace a commitment. Imagination is no substitute for experience, and until Keniston tries a little utopian theorizing himself, he can't expect his gratuitous advice to be taken seriously
