...women want from their mates, but Boot Camp addresses what men want too. Bishop says a major concern for expectant fathers is how their relationship with their wives or girlfriends will change.

(20,400 km/h) to a toe-in-the-dust touchdown speed of a few feet per second. With Mars and Earth currently 171 million miles (275 million km) apart, however, signals from the ship need a full 15 min. 20 sec. to get here, meaning NASA did not confirm the 7-min. plunge until 8 min. after it ended...

Les Gordon recalls the disenchantment among farmers in 1982 when state authorities limited farmers to 60% of their normal water allowance. Now, "I would kill for a 60% allocation," says Gordon, who still farms with his father, Henry. "Dad planted his first rice crop in 1949. No one around here has seen conditions like this before...
