...this were not difficult enough, there is the added problem of our nearing the necessary moment when we have to say good-bye to Fenway Park itself and look forward to a new, modern stadium in its place. Looking out to right field Tuesday, I saw the numbers of Carl Yazstremski (8), Ted Williams (9) and Jackie Robinson (42--the player we had the chance to sign but didn't) blown down by the wind, surely a sign that nature itself wants a change...
...which has dropped four of its first six games took the home field for the first time since a slightly different roster of players ended the 1999 season with a Game 5 loss to the Yankees. There were new faces on the field, most notably that of center-fielder Carl Everett, who hit a home run in his first Fenway at-bat and then followed it up with another one from the other side of the plate later in the game.

...around when one of them calls. "We're just at the beginning of our search," says Drake, who reckons that there are some 10,000 high-tech worlds scattered among the Milky Way's 100 billion or more stars. That's a much more modest figure than the late Carl Sagan's estimate of 1 million intelligent civilizations in just our galaxy--one of perhaps 100 billion galaxies scattered through the universe...
...certain point--about -460[degrees]F--the motion of all matter would stop. Such utter atomic stillness is not possible, since the colder atoms become, the more they draw warmth from anything in the vicinity--often from one another. In 1995, however, a team led by physicists Carl Wieman and Eric Cornell of the University of Colorado at Boulder used lasers and evaporation to achieve something known as a Bose-Einstein condensate, a supercold gas in which atoms overlap and begin to move in synchrony. "We get to within a billionth of a degree of absolute zero," says Wieman...
