...sure. Yet the Israelis cite some frightening figures detailing the extent of Moscow's involvement, which has already cost the Kremlin close to $3 billion and is growing more expensive by the day. They claim that Egypt, Jordan, Syria and Iraq, the so-called "frontline" Arab countries, now possess 3,750 tanks, mostly Soviet T-54s and T-55s; some 4,000 big guns, ranging up to 122-mm. cannon and 160-mm. mortars; and 1,230 planes, mostly MIG fighters but also Sukhoi and Tupolev bombers. Israeli estimates of Soviet equipment in the Middle East have sometimes been...
Whales are extraordinary animals. Besides being the largest creatures on this planet, they apparently possess a sense of humor, a reasonably well-developed conversational skill, and an inordinate amount of musical ability. According to an accumulation of scientific findings, they lumber through the oceans bellowing raga-like compositions of extraordinary length and complexity. On the other hand, whale intelligence may leave something to be desired, for they seem about to embark on a career in the music business. Humpback whales have just made a record. And last week whales were performing with the New York Philharmonic in a new work...

Godard makes films quickly and cheaply. If they lack consistent intellectual quality, they possess a vigorous timeliness. Godard is like a manic eclectic, rebounding from issue to issue, composing a body of work that in years to come may look like nothing so much as a cracked mirror of our time...
...probably equivalent to the U.S.'s Scout or Redstone rocket. Such a system would also provide enough power to fire a small nuclear warhead 6,000 miles. Since the Chinese have already exploded a missile-type H-bomb warhead, Peking beyond any doubt will, within weeks or months, possess at least the first elements of a nuclear missile force. Chinese reports on the progress of the satellite also showed that they have built an efficient guidance system, which is a necessity for further ICBM development...
