...Soviet Union. Fumed Central Committee Official Valentin Falin: "How would the U.S. have reacted if we, the Soviet Union, after concluding SALT II, started bringing medium-range weapons closer to their territory?" To drive home the argument, TIME Moscow Bureau Chief Bruce Nelan reported, other officials privately drew a parallel with Cuba in 1962. One Moscow editor told him: "There was a crisis when you thought missiles in Cuba could...
Their present adjacency, like their parallel career paths, is the stuff of Hollywood. Some 30 years ago the same two bartered theories on the subways of New York. Twenty years ago, they crammed physics in the libraries of Cornell. Although on graduation one went West and one went East, they retained common academic interests, publishing papers from California and Copenhagen on the same topics. They reunited in 1973, when Weinberg left MIT to join Glashow, and the rest of Harvard's celebrated physics Department on the second floor of Jefferson...
...quantum of energy, exchanged in the weak interactions, the so-called "intermediate vector boson," was found to have the same value as the quantum of energy exchanged in electromagnetic interaction. The scales were obviously vastly different, as were the distances over which the two forces act, but this mathematical parallel nonetheless represented a gummer of hope. Glashow broke through in 1961 with a radical conception a neutral vector boson. This immediately resolved many of the most nagging paradoxes, and ultimately proved to be the cornerstone on which the Weinberg-Salam theory was based...
...into a bland, shopping list prose style which may be suitable for album liner notes but waxes tedious after 30 lines. Even Nat Hentoff, a normally fine writer, gets bogged down by his habit of quoting extensively from the artists themselves. A few anecdotes are enough to establish the parallel between Lester Young's personal eccentricities and the relaxed intensity of his playing--the rest add only bulk...
...loves of self-two loves existing side by side, until they end in separation." Eastern Orthodox and Protestants have allowed divorce, at the very least in the case of adultery, citing the statement of Jesus Christ in Matthew 5: 32. But for centuries Roman Catholicism has held to stricter parallel verses in Mark and Luke. Its doctrine holds that a divorced spouse who remarries lives in a state of adultery. The current argument within Catholicism is about whether or not the church should come to terms with the millions of Catholics now into their second marriages and still eager...
