...water vapor in the Martian atmosphere equals about a cubic mile of water, less than in a large lake on earth. Spread over the planet's surface, it would be only a thousandth of an inch deep. There was about twice as much water vapor in the Northern Hemisphere (where it is now late summer) than in the southern half (where it is late winter). This suggests that the excess vapor in the north came from the melting...

After conferences among government ministers, Makarezos mysteriously retracted. His ministry confirmed that Onassis was still the victor. Onassis celebrated at a spirited press conference. He contended that his offer, including some projects for the more distant future, was really worth $550 million. Apparently, Onassis won out because he agreed under pressure last week to put up a sizable cash guarantee that he would actually complete the projects. With biting sarcasm, he poked at Niarchos-without ever mentioning his name...
...surface, Geel looks like any other country town in northern Belgium. Its cobbled marketplace is surrounded by 15th century homes and shops; its neat brick farmhouses look much the same as they did in Brueghel's day. What makes Geel different is the fact that 1,800 of its 30,000 inhabitants are mental patients - and that most of them are not confined to an asylum but cared for by normal families in the town. While this kind of outpatient care is still relatively new to psychiatry, the good people of Geel have been shel tering the sick...
