Pioneered for well logging in the oil industry, the concept has been explored for materials testing in a more systematic way since the introduction of the NMR-MOUSE. This is a small, one-sided access NMR sensor which acquires the information of one pixel from a particular spot of a large object. As the sensor explores the stray-fields of a permanent magnet and an rf coil, the magnetic fields are inhomogeneous and the sensitive volume is limited to the region, where both fields are orthogonal and the Larmor frequency lies within the excitation bandwidth. By shaping the magnet and the coil geometries, the shape of the sensitive volume can be tailored to a thin slice or a larger volume a certain distance away from the sensor surface. In the first case, there is a strong field gradient in the depth direction, and in the second case, a homogeneous sweet spot of the field profile is desired. The first case is suitable for measuring high-resolution depth profiles, while the second case is suitable for chemical shift resolved spectroscopy and volume imaging.

  • Photo Section 384 Israeli Prime Minister David
    Photo Section 384 Israeli Prime Minister David Ben-Gurion and President John F. Kennedy (together at left) became embroiled in a bitter conflict over Israel’s determination to assemble a nuclear arse- nal. The conflict led to Ben-Gurion’s abrupt resignation in June of 1963 and set the stage for a role by Israel’s intelligence agency in JFK’s assassination. The same forces linked to the web of intrigue against JFK were also involved in Israeli-sponsored plots against French Pres- ident Charles DeGaulle (at right with Ben-Gurion) who infuriated Israel by giving indepen- dence to Arab Algeria and by reversing French support for Israel’s nuclear program. The JFK assassination plot (and the plots against DeGaulle) were orchestrated and funded through an international corporate body known as Permindex, a shell corporation which func- tioned as an asset of Israel’s intelligence agency, the Mossad. Shown above is the founding meeting of Permindex. The driving force behind Permindex was the Geneva-based Banque De Credit International (BCI), founded by Rabbi Tibor Rosenbaum (inset, right), a financier and arms procurement officer for the Mossad. Rosenbaum’s bank also served as the chief money laundry for the crime syndicate of international mob boss, Meyer Lansky (inset, left), whose criminal empire (of which the so-called “Mafia” was a part) came under fire when the Kennedy administration launched a major crackdown on organized crime. 385 Photo Section When New Orleans District Attorney Jim Garrison (left) investigated and charged interna- tional trade executive and longtime CIA asset Clay Shaw (center) with involvement in the JFK assassination conspiracy, Garrison discovered that Shaw served on the board of the Mossad’s Permindex corporation.

Introduction After the surprising upset victory of two followers of the right-wing extremist Lyndon H. LaRouche Jr. in last year's Illinois Democratic primary, American political commentators were forced to inform themselves about his views. However, while the activities of the LaRouche organization have now been publicized in the U.S., little light has been shed on the activities of his followers in Canada. This despite the fact that LaRouche's followers here have been active in the last several years, running in federal, provincial and municipal elections, maintaining booths on downtown streets and in airports, etc. This report provides background information about Lyndon LaRouche and the activities of the LaRouche organization in Canada.

  • John F. Kennedy Was Killed in 1963, America Became Deeply Involved in the Vietnam War
    1 INTRODUCTION Synopsis After President John F. Kennedy was killed in 1963, America became deeply involved in the Vietnam War. Within a few short years, heroin addiction in America reached epidemic proportions. In the background, Israel expanded its borders by force and became a colonial empire ruling a nation of hostile Palestinian subjects. This book reveals how Israel exploited the Western powers’ long history of opium trafficking as a means of toppling the young American president. The following points summarize the information presented: Opium was the glue that held together the rivaling factions that conspired to kill JFK. The main factions in the conspiracy were Zionist instigators, the American Mafia (headed by Jewish mobster Meyer Lansky and his lieutenant, Santo Trafficante), French-Corsican crime syndicates in Marseilles, France and Southeast Asia, and the US military. Heroin smuggling was first introduced to the American Mafia in the 1920s by Jewish gangsters such as Meyer Lansky, "Legs" Diamond, and "Dutch" Schultz. One of the reasons President Johnson escalated US involvement in Southeast Asia was because the American Mafia and French-Corsican heroin traffickers needed a new source of opium for their heroin factories. Turkey had been the main source, but its government was about to eradicate opium production. Joseph Kennedy, Sr’s three sons were viewed as a new American dynasty that threatened Israel’s plans to expand its borders. The Kennedy Dynasty would last until 1985 if each son served two terms in the White House. It is widely known that Joseph Kennedy Sr developed a strong loathing of Jews from his business dealings with them in finance, Hollywood, and politics.
