...time being at least, they will not try to deny access to Haiphong from the sea by bombing its dock areas or mining its harbor-and thus risking a confrontation with Russia if its ships are hit by a U.S. attack. Instead, the U.S. planners intend to seal off access to the port from the land side, hoping that Soviet and other materials will simply pile up on the docks...
...have been substituted for soldered joints that melt at 360° F. Coolant pipelines, which service electronic components and can release flammable glycol when ruptured, have been "armor-plated" at joints with high-strength epoxy. Should the joints come open, the epoxy serves as a back-up seal. Along Apollo's 15 miles of electrical wiring, circuit-breaker panels have been fireproofed with twelve coats of Ladicote paint, newly developed by North American. Bundles of wire, previously exposed to dangerous scuffing and wear during assembly, maintenance, tests and flight, are now encased in protective metal panels that double...

The photographer's camera work is bright enough, and full of tricks, without beginning to suggest...

His plain thesis is that the murder of Nicholas and Alexandra put the seal of irrevocability on the Bolsheviks' successful putsch against the infant Kerensky government. Both events are traced more to Nicholas' hard luck than to any concatenation of inevitable historical forces-a Marxist theory that 50 years of propaganda have almost conned the West into accepting...
