Antimatter, which has thus far been created on earth only as infinitesimal particles in giant synchrotrons, reacts violently when it comes into contact with true matter. One product of the Siberian reaction would have been a vast number of free neutrons, many of which would have joined with nitrogen atoms, turning them into radioactive carbon 14. Calculations showed that the explosion would have increased the carbon-14 content of the earth's atmosphere by about 7%. That heightened radioactivity could be expected to show up in vegetable matter a short time later...
...against the Rhodesians, South Africans or what have you." Guest Speaker Sir Richard Acland, 58, an ex-Labor M.P. who left the party because it was too conservative in 1955, sniffed that he considered Harold Wilson's administration capable of assessing the national peril "only if 50 million Siberian soldiers were climbing the cliffs of Dover in muffled boots...
...estimated to cost ultimately $1 billion, of which the Soviets are putting up nearly 30%. Aswan is the world's most striking aid project, and the Russians are breaking their backs to do the job right and on time, and are largely succeeding-even at the expense of Siberian dam projects, delayed because Russia's top engineering talent is in Egypt.

...honey bears started fighting and stampeded the camels, tethered opposite the elephants. Noah's son Japheth, played by one of Althoff's animal trainers, was using baby talk to soothe a pair of lions and Siberian tigers in their glassed-in cages. Elsewhere in the hold, zebras nipped, sheep bleated, yaks grunted and Watusi bulls bellowed. But the real test is yet to come. This week the whole zoo, accompanied by some 1,000 birds, will make its way up the gangplank, two by two. "My God," groaned Huston, "how the hell did Noah...
...sale throughout Moscow were 325,000 freshly cut Siberian fir yolki (formerly Christmas but now New Year's trees), plus another 100,000 artificial trees and 200 boxcars of tinsel, lights and colored balls. Lavishly decorated trees appeared by the hundreds in restaurants, shops, public buildings and even in the Kremlin's Tainitsky Garden. State stores advertised "everything for the New Year's tree." On the streets, resplendent in long white beards and bright red suits, dozens of Grandfather Frosts exacted kopeks from the crowds...
