...vastly influential Scofield Reference Bible, divided God's relationship with man into seven ages (the current sixth began with the death of Christ). Their vision grimly upended the previous wisdom. Far from getting ever better, things on earth would progressively worsen, until the Antichrist, also known as the Beast, arose.

...world revealed by Marcy, Butler and their team last week, however--yet another around 55 Cancri--is an entirely different beast. About 3.5 to 5 times the mass of Jupiter--close enough by planetary standards to be a sister--it orbits at a distance of 510 million miles, remarkably like Jupiter's 480 million.

Walsh himself said that he will not start his ace this weekend. That means that Harvard will be without its best arm against Princeton unless, as Walsh noted with a wink, rain forces a game to Monday. As of yesterday, the National Weather Service predicted “mostly cloudy” skies on Sunday, with “a chance of rain during the afternoon and night...
