...viosterol, or developed in the body by natural or artificial sunlight?is essential for the utilization of bone building lime salts in the body. Vitamin A, however, now appears to be the body's best soldier against aisease. Best, appetizing sources of Vitamin A are butter, whole milk, egg yolk, edible green leaves (spinach, lettuce, celery leaves, beet tops), yellow corn, sweet potatoes, carrots...
...theory). Certain aspects of cosmic rays suggest that they may be the newly recognized neutrons. Or they may be electrons drifting down from the heavily ionized, pulsating casing called the Kennelly-Heaviside Layer which at a distance of 100 mi. or so encloses Earth as a shell encloses its yolk. Against that yielding, yet fluctuating casing radio waves rebound and in it flutter the curtains of the Northern Lights...
...Yolk. Next witness was Charles Edwin Mitchell of National City Bank of New York whose company had handled $1,071,955,000 worth of foreign loans in the last decade. Aggressively Mr. Mitchell argued that these advances were good and useful because they stimulated U. S. foreign trade. German economy, he declared, was "the goose that is laying the golden egg." Asked Senator Gore: "Yes, but who gets the yellow of that...
...Cell (protoplasm), biologists agree, is made up of two main parts: the yolk-like nucleus and the oily cytoplasm. Both nucleus and cytoplasm contain solid and liquid portions; in addition they contain further specialized units of matter: in the nucleus, membrane, nucleolus, chromosomes; in the cytoplasm, membrane, granules, vacuoles, plastids. It is the behavior of these infinitesimal units that biologists are now trying to study...
Scientists Harvey & Loomis watched cells whirl, saw the tiny granules moving through the protoplasm, oil globules going in one direction, yolk granules in another. From the rate of movement they began to calculate the viscosity (gumminess) of the protoplasm. When oil and yolk are separated they exert a pull upon the cell which divides it in two parts. By watching the course of that process the experimenters were able to estimate the tension on the surface of the cell which holds it together. That tension, they found, is at least 100 times smaller than had been supposed. Preliminary results...
