...surrounded by restaurants serving inventive, often experimental cuisine: places like Arzak, a three-star Michelin legend, and in the countryside, Etxebarri, where chef Victor Arguinzoniz takes such pride in his grilled meats and fishes that he bakes his own charcoal out of different tree branches every morning in an oxygen-controlled oven. At the Guggenheim in Bilbao, a prodigy named Josean Martínez Alija, 27, is winning accolades for dishes like roasted tomatoes stuffed with baby squid and candied cod in garlic oil. Most famously, there is Ferrán Adriŕ of El Bulli, two hours north of Barcelona...
...HUSPMGU president, McCombe frequently pitted himself against the University administration during negotiations for better pay and the unfolding of a discrimination lawsuit filed in the 1990s by a fellow guard. McCombe retired under pressure in 2003, when his health required him to carry around an oxygen tank. He suffered from diabetes and a weak lung. His post, particularly in later years, placed him at the heart of the campus, where he could be seen nights patrolling the grounds around Sever Hall. “He did everything he could for his fellow guards, he fought...
...TUNE UP. Cleaning your clogged air filters improves mileage 10%, for a savings of 27˘ per gal. Fixing a faulty exhaust-pipe oxygen sensor, which monitors the fuel-to-air ratio in your engine, can save 40%, or $1.08 per gal. Properly pumping up tires can inflate mileage...
...lunar mineral that may hold the most oxygen promise is ilmenite, a titanium oxide brought back from the moon?s Taurus-Littrow region by the Apollo 17 crew in 1972. To determine how heavy the ilmenite concentrations are at that site and to look for other outcroppings as well, NASA recently decided to conduct telescope surveys of four lunar regions: Taurus-Littrow, Hadley-Apennine-landing site of Apollo 15-the unexplored Aristarchus impact crater and nearby Schroter?s Valley. Though ground-based telescopes would ordinarily be suitable for this work, in this case they wouldn?t do, since the scientists...
...also in Schroter?s Valley and in especially high concentrations in Aristarchus crater. Aristarchus would make an especially good landing site for future geologists, because the impacts that create craters blasts away surface material, providing a detailed look far below ground. Combine that with the ready lode of oxygen-rich ilmenite, and you?ve got a prime spot for a future moon base...
