Then Agustina measured me for 20 minutes???which was awesome. My right arm is one-quarter of an inch longer than my left, which she would note for the tailors in Italy. Such asymmetry can make a difference in a shirt's appearance if it's not factored in, but, Agustina assured me, it's physiologically normal. "Yesterday I had a customer with a three-quarters of an inch difference," she said. "He was a little bit of a freak...

Cascading west, south and east from the Niagara Falls region, the electronic eclipse swept over an area only slightly smaller than Great Britain: 80,000 sq. mi., embracing parts of eight U.S. states and most of Canada's Ontario province. In 12 bewildering minutes???in less time than it would take an intercontinental missile to reach the U.S. from Russia?30 million people were plunged into blackness and bewilderment. And, in a society that has peered at the moon's hidden face and unlocked the secrets of matter, its origins seemed as impenetrable...
