...generate magnetic fields that cause bubbles to form at predetermined locations in the wafer. Currents passed through different branches of the printed circuits can form new bubbles, or move or erase existing bubbles. The same result can be achieved by the controlled motion of a magnetic field outside the crystal; this method eliminates the need for any electrical connections to the wafer...
...these substances had been expelled by high temperatures?and would support the theory of a volcanic moon. Those who believe that meteors gave the moon its cratered surface might still argue, however, that the volcanism had occurred only in areas struck?and heated?by huge meteors. Studies of the crystal size and average density of sample rocks will supply other evidence that should go a long way toward proving or disproving the theory that the moon endured an earthlike period of melting, volcanism and slow cooling...

Each new fill of the wine glasses, which are enormous crystal ballons of the sort normally seen only at the swankiest restaurants, brings an invocation of 'Hei, hei,' a friendly salutation which Fielding has borrowed from the hard-drinking Finns. Old anecdotes are dredged up and embellished until they sink again?about the day that Prince Albert and Princess Paola of Belgium visited the villa for skeet shooting and the time that a U.S. Navy admiral suddenly...
