Neely opened the scoring for Boston at 13:38 mark, beating Gosselin from close range on a one-on-one confrontation. He got his 14th goal of the season high on the glove side after taking a pass from Bob Joyce just inside the Nordiques blueline...
...White on one upcoming program, and hopes his show's 90-minute length will allow time for more than the usual plug-happy celebrities. "I've always admired Paar's knack of finding witty, interesting conversationalists from the ranks of character actors, politicians and authors," he says.

...goal for the juniors and seniors at Watertown High in Watertown, Mass., is to mount a thimble-size metal earth on a coat hanger in the middle of a melon-size clear-plastic sphere that is supposed to be the universe. The students then use Magic Markers to trace onto the universe a computer-drawn map of a few hundred of the brightest stars in the night sky. They draw a line around the sphere to represent the ecliptic, or path of the sun through the constellations, and then they are ready for some gnarly astronomy...

The goal of the program is not merely to teach astronomy to high school students but also to use astronomical examples to instill basic concepts of math and science. Thus students may master the inverse-square law of physics by seeing that when a star doubles its distance from a certain point, it becomes one-quarter as bright. Why choose astronomy for this purpose? "It's not as abstract as chemistry and physics," says Shapiro...
