...exist there. The modern-day Martian atmosphere has barely 1% the density of Earth's, and the planet's average temperature hovers around a paralyzing -67[degrees]F. In an environment as harsh as this, any water that did appear would either vaporize into space or simply flash-freeze where it stood. What scientists studying Martian history have always looked for instead are clues that the planet's ancient water left behind--tracks where vanished rivers once flowed, basins where vanished seas once stood...

I got hooked on Water Balloon Drop, but there's also online poker, trivia games and even an Austin Powers dancing game...
...road to the American marketplace has been long, winding and more than a little bit bumpy. More than a medical breakthrough, the pill is also a flash point for political dissension: The efficacy of the pill is a boon to women's health care advocates, who see RU-486 as a much-needed, less invasive alternative to surgical abortions. Abortion opponents, of course, view the pill's potency with alarm, and have urged the FDA to withhold approval of the drug...
