Mortal Bishops. Within the confessional each priest is the ultimate human judge of sins not legally reserved to the bishop or Holy See (e.g., abortion, physical attack on the clergy, etc.). If a penitent is denied absolution by one priest, he may seek out another whose viewpoint is congenial to his. Furthermore, a Puerto Rican Catholic might believe that voting for the P.D.P. was a political matter outside the realm of faith and morals, and considered the bishops' letters merely advisory exhortations. In that case, if the voter has considered carefully and acted in good faith...
...nearly a dozen violations of civil air regulations-falsifying engine time (an old trick of shaky, non-sked airlines to stretch the time between mandatory engine inspections), flying more hours during a given period than safety regulations permit, falsifying a manifest to show a copilot who was not aboard, etc. After a formal hearing, his license was suspended last July by FAA, and Arctic-Pacific was fined $16,000. Chesher appealed and, pending a review, he was free to fly. When rescue workers recovered his body from the wreckage, they found it strapped in the right-hand cockpit seat. Despite...
...really going strong, he feels ice-cold, has been known to light a fire in the middle of a heat wave while writing. Over the years he has set up a number of semi-fast rules for himself: avoid s sounds, avoid eer sounds above A above middle C, etc. As a lyricist, Lerner lacks the ultrasophistication of a Cole Porter, on the other hand would never commit the more cloying sentimentalities of Oscar Hammerstein. At their best, his lyrics are like expertly cut glass, as in these lines from My Fair Lady...
...principle behind the bubble chamber is that high-energy charged particles (electrons, protons, mesons, etc.) ionize materials that they pass through by knocking electrons off atoms. Glaser reasoned that these ions should repel one another, and that if they are formed in a liquid that is about to start boiling, they should show as lines of rapidly growing bubbles along the tracks of the particles. This is just what happens when a bubble chamber is made and manipulated in precisely the right way, which is not easy...
...Failed." Few other industries use -or can calculate-rate of capacity as an output measure. Instead, they measure their output solely in units of production, e.g., pounds, carloadings, etc. If the auto industry used rate of capacity, it would be producing now at only about 50% of capacity on a round-the-clock basis-the same basis on which the steel industry computes its capacity. That figure would completely misrepresent Detroit's present fast production clip...
