...alluring film, Red Top quickly emerges as a highlight of the rowing experience. The 16-mile trek out to the lighthouse and back, a typical early-morning fare in the workout menu, is somehow slightly sweetened by the thoughts of an afternoon round of croquet, lawn bowling or broth following the early evening row. Red Top puts back the old-styled gentlemanliness into rowing...
...along a country road after visiting Adriana, pulls into a dirt lane, pushes back his seat, rolls up the window, and closes his eyes to go to sleep--then another date announcing a new day flashes on the screen. Adriana sits alone nude in her drab room, cooking some broth on her hot plate; she gets up from her chair and slips into a robe; she returns to her chair--and again, suddenly, it is a new day, and we watch Paul as he pulls up to the cafe...
...strange week for an airline president-but then the swashbuckling 52-year-old Daly is anything but the conventional airline executive. A combative, hard-drinking broth of an Irishman and an Archie Bunker lookalike, he seems to thrive on high drama and wrangles with Government bureaucrats. In the nearly two decades since his piston-engine DC-4s airlifted Hungarian refugees to the U.S. in 1956, Daly-who started with two war-surplus C-46Fs in 1950-has built World into the largest of the nation's supplemental airlines. Originally, he prospered largely by battling for and winning Military Airlift...
...test, a small sample of Martian soil will be partially submerged in a nutrient-rich solution (called "chicken soup" by the experimenters). If any Martian organisms grow in the broth and give off carbon dioxide or other common byproducts of respiration-like life processes, instruments will detect these chemicals. In another test, soil will be exposed to a nutrient containing radioactive carbon 14. If any microorganisms consume the nutrient and give off carbon-bearing gases as metabolic wastes, those wastes will be radioactively "tagged" and readily identified. Lastly, a Martian soil sample will be exposed to xenon "sunlight...
...sterile drill to remove sections containing the bacteria. Their precautions produced an unexpected side effect. When they examined chips from the Ross Island core under a microscope, they found that microbes were moving around. "We may have heat-shocked them out of dormancy," says Cameron. Placed in a nutrient broth, the rod-shaped bacteria continued to move about. The club-shaped organisms proved even more responsive. On a culture plate, they reproduced and set up colonies that looked to Cameron like "inactive volcanoes...
