i just do n't understand it |
my relationships with the british are totally different |
they <unk> it over me |
they did me some good |
they did themselves even more good |
they let me down when the japanese came down during world war ii |
i do n't feel down or done in because i show british <unk> on my television network or read their books |
i mean it is a normal adult relationship |
but the <unk> and the americans when i talk to them there 's so much passion about filipino <unk> being diminished as a result of being <unk> upon by the americans and so on |
the <unk> <unk> tries to put on <unk> but we let it pass |
it 's just comic when they try to <unk> they 're still the master race |
mr. lee added that the <unk> are making it very difficult for the u.s. military presence to last beyond five or N years |
on military alternatives if the u.s. pulls back the soviets already are present |
i <unk> sooner or later the japanese would have to fill up a large part of the gap on the naval side |
maybe the chinese maybe even the indians |
on economic consequences of a diminished u.s. presence america is the only major power in recent history that has used its military might to sustain a system that enables all participants to equally benefit without her as the provider of the security taking royalties |
asked why so few nations seem to share his views of america he said many people see it that way |
but they have just taken it for granted |
on cambodia let 's assume that former <unk> leader prince <unk> <unk> does what the press wants him to do and joins up with <unk> <unk> leader <unk> sen |
is the trouble over |
can <unk> and <unk> sen knock off the khmer rouge still supported by china |
he ca n't |
what is the way forward |
to get the khmer rouge as part of a process for elections |
and when they lose then we can expect china to stop aid |
let 's put it <unk> |
the chinese can not be seen to have made use of the khmer rouge and then <unk> them |
ms. house is vice president of dow jones international group |
mr. <unk> is editor of the asian wall street journal |
everything looked good as <unk> walter levy and colleagues carefully cut away a woman 's <unk> tumor at the cleveland clinic in N |
using small electrical shocks applied to her feet they were able to monitor <unk> nerves |
the shocks generated <unk> <unk> that traveled via <unk> to brain and showed up clearly on a <unk> monitor indicating no damage to the delicate <unk> tissue |
then says dr. levy she <unk> up <unk> |
the damage was to her motor nerves which could n't be monitored along with the <unk> nerves he explains |
the tragedy he adds galvanized me to look for a way to prevent similar cases |
dr. levy 's answer may come with a new kind of magnetic brain probe a device that he and dozens of u.s. researchers are studying with great hope |
besides holding the promise of safer <unk> surgery the probe could improve the <unk> of brain and <unk> disorders such as strokes and multiple <unk> |
perhaps most exciting the device is <unk> open a window to the workings of the brain |
the probe which is <unk> <unk> and apparently <unk> employs strong magnetic fields to induce small <unk> of electricity within the brain |
if positioned over the brain 's <unk> area the hand-held <unk> generate <unk> <unk> that zip down motor nerves and <unk> <unk> making say a finger <unk> |
in principle they will enable doctors to check the body 's motor system the way an <unk> tests a home 's electrical circuits by running current through them |
until now we 've had no objective way of measuring motor function says keith <unk> a <unk> conducting clinical tests with the devices at boston 's massachusetts general hospital |
all we could do was tell a patient squeeze my fingers as hard as you can or raise your arm |
under the best circumstances such tests are <unk> when a patient is <unk> they do n't work at all |
magnetic brain <unk> started in the early <unk> when researchers produced <unk> of light in the <unk> field with <unk> |
in the 1960s <unk> clinic researchers developed magnetic devices to stimulate motor nerves in the hand and other <unk> |
but for brain tests the <unk> machines would have required patients to stand on their heads says <unk> <unk> a researcher at the university of california at san diego |
the field took off in N after scientists at britain 's <unk> university developed a handy compact <unk> for brain <unk> |
since then at least two commercial versions have been put on the u.s. market and an estimated N have been sold |
in august a chicago conference on such devices attracted more than N researchers who reported studies on everything from brain <unk> to physical therapy |
we do n't feel we can use the devices routinely in surgery yet but we 're getting close says dr. levy who is now with the university of pittsburgh |
a problem he adds is that <unk> brains are more <unk> to magnetic <unk> than <unk> ones |
the devices could help indicate when surgery would help says charles <unk> a university of toronto <unk> |
for example <unk> <unk> victims occasionally have some intact <unk> <unk> that if <unk> by emergency surgery enable partial recovery |
but such operations typically are n't performed because there is no sign right after an injury that surgery would be beneficial |
the cost of magnetic stimulators would seem like peanuts if we could retrieve <unk> function in such people dr. <unk> says |
scientists caution there is a chance the <unk> technique might spark seizures in <unk> |
but no significant problems have been reported among hundreds of people tested with the devices |
the main <unk> besides feeling like a <unk> <unk> with <unk> <unk> is like a <unk> on the head says sam <unk> a <unk> who has studied the brain stimulators at yale university |
one apparent side effect is a minor increase in a brain <unk> |
and some doctors who have conducted hours of tests on themselves report temporary headaches |
at least two companies <unk> laboratories inc. of <unk> wash. and <unk> medical systems inc. of <unk> conn. now sell versions of the magnetic devices |
the machines which at $ N are <unk> by medical standards have n't been approved in the u.s. for marketing as brain stimulators but are sold for <unk> nerves in the hand <unk> and other <unk> areas |
researchers can apply for permission to use the <unk> for brain studies |
at the university of kentucky a team led by dean <unk> a physical therapy researcher is testing the stimulators in <unk> with electric shocks to induce muscle <unk> to help prevent <unk> of <unk> <unk> after <unk> surgery |
similarly a <unk> university team led by heart researcher <unk> <unk> hopes to develop ways to <unk> induce <unk> muscle <unk> |
the devices might someday serve as temporary <unk> or <unk> for stopped hearts says dr. <unk> whose prototype was dubbed the <unk> <unk> |
the devices ' most remarkable possibilities though involve the brain |
probing with the stimulators national institutes of health scientists recently showed how the brain <unk> <unk> resources after an <unk> |
similar studies are expected to reveal how <unk> patients ' brains <unk> a first step toward finding ways to bolster that process and speed rehabilitation |
scientists also are exploring memory and perception with the new machines |
at the state university of new york at brooklyn researchers <unk> two groups of different letters on a computer screen in front of human guinea pigs |
between <unk> certain areas in subjects ' brains are jolted with a magnetic <unk> |
when the jolt is <unk> just right the subjects do n't recall seeing the first group of letters |
where does that first <unk> go <unk> <unk> <unk> paul <unk> |
trying to answer that is suggesting all kinds of theories such as precisely where and how the brain processes <unk> signals from the eyes |
he and others say that the machines are weak enough that they do n't jeopardize the memory |
both the <unk> team and researchers at the national <unk> laboratory in cambridge mass. are working with more potent magnetic brain stimulators |
among other things the stronger devices may be able to <unk> forth <unk> memories and induce mood changes <unk> say |
du pont co. hewlett-packard co. and los <unk> national laboratory said they signed a three-year $ N million agreement to <unk> on superconductor research |
the collaboration will include at least N researchers and will be aimed primarily at developing thin films of <unk> superconductors for use in electronics the companies said |
the materials discovered during the past three years conduct electricity without resistance and promise smaller faster computers and other new technologies |
<unk> programs have <unk> as u.s. companies seek to spread the risks and costs of <unk> new superconductors and to meet the challenges posed by foreign <unk> especially in japan |
the latest research pact <unk> du pont 's growing portfolio of investments in superconductors |
the wilmington del. chemicals concern previously signed research superconductor agreements with oak <unk> national laboratory and with <unk> national laboratory |
last year du pont agreed to pay $ N million for rights to superconductor work at the university of houston |
hewlett-packard is a palo alto calif. computer maker |
the los <unk> laboratory is one of three u.s. department of energy national laboratories designed as pilot centers to foster joint <unk> programs to speed the transfer of new superconductors to the marketplace |
j.c. penney co. dallas said it issued $ N million of securities backed by credit-card receivables |
the offering was priced with an N N coupon rate at N N to yield N N |
the retailer said the securities are expected to be rated triple-a by standard & poor 's corp. and <unk> by moody 's investors service inc |
they pay interest only for N months with principal payments beginning thereafter |
the expected average life of the certificates is N years with the final scheduled payment in october N |
first boston corp. is sole underwriter |
as part of the transaction j.c. penney will sell a portion of its credit-card receivables to its <unk> receivables inc. unit which will then transfer them to a master trust |
the trust will issue the certificates |
credit support will be provided by a letter of credit facility from credit suisse in favor of the trustee fuji bank & trust co. for the benefit of the certificate holders |
j.c. penney will continue to service the receivables |
<unk> japanese industrial managers here always buck up nervous newcomers with the tale of the first of their <unk> to visit mexico a <unk> of <unk> <unk> <unk> <unk> N years ago |
from the beginning it took a man with extraordinary <unk> to succeed in mexico says <unk> <unk> president of mitsui group 's <unk> engineering inc. unit |
