...Astronomer Robert Harrington of the U.S. Naval Observatory has gone so far as to paint a description of the suspect, and it is no pedestrian planet. It is three to five times the mass of the earth, is gaseous like Jupiter, has an orbit that is elliptical rather than circular and inclines to the plane of the solar system at an angle of perhaps 30 degrees or more; its year (the time it takes to orbit the sun once) is 800 to 1,000 earth years long. To have been influential in shaping the current orbit of Uranus, he thinks...
...hometown, but unfair on a couple of counts. If the spa waters have calmed since the days when Franklin Roosevelt and Al Capone journeyed to southern Indiana for a sulfurous cure, French Lick continues to be a resort community of considerable grace.

...Center has three tiers of curving glass setbacks fanning out in a vertically striped polygon. A canopy of pink and white glass panels dresses the base; a sliced-cylinder skylight emerges at the top. Inside, in a light-filled atrium, salmon pink terraces climb for 17 stories around a circular plaza. Glass elevators rise and fall along the outside of two towers. As little Dorothy once said, "Toto, I have a feeling we're not in Kansas any more...
