...also suggested an easy remedy for animal bad breath: brush the offender's teeth daily-if he allows it. Other vets noted the growth of a more serious problem: heartworm-a mosquito-borne parasite that lodges in the heart, can reach a foot in length and blocks the oxygen supplied to the body. Eventually the dog tires after the slightest exertion. Several drugs are now available to prevent and treat this spreading canine disease...
...work, then settle into makeshift hovels only marginally better than the villages they left behind. Once one of the hemisphere's most beautiful cities, the capital is now one of the most blighted. Clouds of smoke from burning garbage, tortilla shops and public bathhouses-fortified by the rarefied oxygen at 7,347 ft.-make lung congestion almost epidemic and blot out the view of Popocatepetl and Iztaccihuatl, the twin peaks between which Hernan Cortes advanced in 1519. Other urban areas-Guadalajara and Monterrey -are almost...
...work remains to be done before Stroke can write a symphony and show the entire structure of any molecule. But the results thus far are promising. Stroke's pilot study, involving a substance called magnesium bromide tetrahydrofuran, clearly reveals the precise arrangement of the molecule's magnesium, oxygen and carbon atoms in one plane of the crystal. It is more of the molecule than science has yet been able...
Through beautiful fabrics, fine workmanship, showmanship and oneupmanship, the grande dame of Paris fashion survived yet another season. As Pierre Cardin put it, "We needed to insert a little oxygen into haute couture. " Next time around they may need plasma...
...have been too few of these molecules in the soil to be detected by the gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer designed to look for them. The picture is complicated by the biology tests run at the second Mars landing site. In the gas exchange test, the soil released substantially less oxygen than the sample at the first site, but showed a higher level of possible microbial activity. Jastrow and several other scientists feel that this weakens the argument that peroxides were responsible for the results of the first gas exchange experiment and leaves biology as the logical alternative...
