...diagram* and instructions on how to do the problem. The Physicist's diagram merely suggested that a right triangle can be formed from 1) the line of centers, 2) a line parallel to the common tangent and running through the center of the smaller circle, and 3) the radius of the larger circle. The length of the tangent can then be found by applying the Pythagorean Theorem. "This," concluded the great man, "gives the solution." Then he signed his initials-A.E., for Albert Einstein...
...Probably a rather baffling diagram for Johanna. Instead of drawing the tangent circles the problem called for, the Physicist spread his circles apart, introduced a third circle with a radius equal to the difference between the radii of the original...

...beginning a search for 150,000 TV sets whose owners have not paid their annual license fee of ?2 ($5.60) to the General Post Office. Since the van can detect a set only when it is turned on-and if it happens to be within a 100-ft. radius of the truck-illicit televiewers had little reason to tremble in their boots...
...commanders should be held responsible for the actions of "partisans" or "irregulars" not under military control. Next, in a workmanlike series of compromises, it was agreed that the conference site at Panmunjom should be protected by a neutral zone 1,000 yards (about five-eighths of a mile) in radius, that three-mile radius circles around Kaesong and Munsan and a 400-meter (438-yard) corridor along the access roads should be free from hostile attack. Finally, the Reds accepted the U.N. assurance that flights over the protected zones would be limited "insofar as practicable." The U.N. is putting...
