...nuclei made of protons and neutrons, with a surrounding cloud of electrons. It's how many of these basic building blocks their nuclei contain. The fact that an oxygen atom has 8 protons, in particular, and iron 26 largely explains why you can breathe one and make a frying pan from the other...
...then 114, then 112 and finally fragmenting completely. It wasn't unexpected, but atomic physicists believe, for theoretical reasons, that atoms with 120 or 126 protons might be a lot more stable. Of course, they were saying that about element 114 a few years ago, and it didn't pan out. But if they get to a point where one of these super-heavy elements lasts for hours, not milliseconds (it will depend in part on getting the right number of neutrons as well), that would be enough time to do actual chemistry and understand their properties. It could happen...
...from the musical adaptation of “Candide.” This number shed some light on Bernstein’s goofy side, but still included difficult vocal parts. Cabell offered her last number in “Dream With Me” from “Peter Pan.” Kathy D. Gerlach ’07 performed a fine rendition of “Take Care of This House” from “1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.” “The Wrong Note Rag” returned to ensemble silliness, with...
...time Mr. Grey heard the term, it certainly is not the first time the U.S. government publicly discussed this decades-old tool." Indeed, then-CIA Director William Webster told the Washington Post in 1989 that the Department of Justice had created the term "renditions" after the shootdown of the Pan Am jet over Lockerbie, Scotland. The process was aimed at capturing those responsible abroad and bringing them back to the United States. Later, his successor George Tenet told the Senate Foreign Relations Committee in 2000 that U.S. agents had, "working with foreign governments worldwide, helped to render more than...
...still one of the most thrilling buildups in the history of the musical theater. But it's just the ice cream sundae at the end of Marvin Hamlisch's rich banquet of a score, with its equal helpings of Tin Pan Alley schmaltz and modernist invention. Sure, it's too soon for a Chorus Line revival. But it's also too soon to dismiss this show with mere nostalgia...
