...atmospheric pressure 15 to 22 times greater than Earth's-described conditions on the planet's surface. Not so, say U.S. Electrical Engineers Arvydas Kliore and Dan Cain. The Venusian at mosphere, they report in the current issue of Journal of Atmospheric Sciences, is much hotter and far more crushing than the Soviets think. On the surface the temperature is actually close to 900° F., the atmospheric pressure a staggering 75 to 100 times the sea level pressure on Earth...
Mysterious notices on Cambridge bulletin boards last winter sought "intelligent and gutsy actors and actresses" for "The Proposition--a topical satirical review."

Still other scientists forecast a colder earth (the recent trend) because man is blocking sunlight with ever more dust, smog and jet contrails. The cold promises more rain and hail, even a possible...

At the International Auto Show in Manhattan last week, the muscle cars were there in force, from Plymouth's Road Runner to Pontiac's Firebird, and they made an obvious hit with visitors. Says Ray Brock, publisher of Hot Rod magazine: "The high-performance buff can now literally 'build' his own individualized...
