...using the mole, a robot that can tunnel deep beneath the surface. Any life on Mars, past or present, would leave its chemical imprint - or 'fossil' - inside the rock. Pillinger's team has developed a miniaturized gas analysis package (GAP) to heat up rock and soil in an oven, process the gases released and analyze them using a mass spectrometer (which measures elements in minute quantities). By recording the temperature at which the heated samples release carbon dioxide, scientists can gauge the presence of a particular carbon isotope that indicates life. Other tests will look for methane, since extremophiles fuel...

...There's nothing new about Bukhara, the award-winning restaurant in New Delhi's Maurya Sheraton Hotel, which has been operating for decades. But Bukhara was the first restaurant to take an Indian specialty item?foods cooked in a tandoor oven?and transform it into gourmet cuisine. The restaurant's look is pure Flintstones: walls of boulders, solid-wood tables and menus printed on laminated sections of tree. There's no cutlery either: you rip at great hunks of meat and swab it up with nan the size of a trash can lid. But don't let this modish coarseness...

...Maybe. When I tried out the Panasonic KX-TC1481B, a $39 900-MHz model, I could hear other conversations and even music coming through the phone. I got much clearer reception with the Motorola MA351, a $60 2.4-GHz model--except when I turned on my microwave oven and was assaulted by weird vibrating noises coming through the handset. Still, the Motorola is a decent option at a fair price...

Most of the meze are excellent. Crunchy house crackers, dusted with spices, are the perfect foil for the various dips and spreads. If you’re lucky, soft pita-like bread, fresh from the oven and dusted with caraway seeds, will also be handed over. Bedenjal Mechoui ($3.95), an eggplant spread with roasted peppers, garlic, parsley, vinegar and lots of olive oil is always perfect, the smokiness of the eggplant mingling with the fruity oil.
