...scientist last week dispelled fears that a new Ice Age is about to engulf the world. Some climatologists had predicted that the Arctic pack ice would some day unfreeze. However,after examining sediment thought to be 4,000,000 years old at latitude 80° N., longitude 158°W., the University of Wisconsin's David Clark confidently predicted that no pack ice will chill Key Biscayne very soon. It was one of the few pieces of unequivocally good news heard lately, and it recalled Thornton Wilder's The Skin of Our Teeth, which described...

Serendipity struck a group of Ohio State University geologists last December as they picked away at the stratified sediment in an ancient stream bed high in the frigid Transantarctic Mountains. Investigating rock strata to learn more about the Antarctic ice sheet, they uncovered a small fossilized bone fragment with continent-sized implications...

While moderate bleeding from the bladder wall, or the churning of heavy urinary sediment, may obscure the TV cystoscope's view, this blurring is usually only temporary.
