...steel mills, oil refineries and power plants are suppressing rainfall downwind of major industrial centers. In Australia, Canada and Turkey, according to one study, these pollution patterns perfectly coincide with corridors within which precipitation is virtually nil. Reason: the aerosols interfere with the mechanism by which the water vapor in clouds condenses and grows into raindrops big enough to reach the ground...
...prospects of driving more environmentally friendly automobiles. Hybrid gasoline-electric cars with impressive fuel efficiency are already on our doorstep, and his prediction that hydrogen-powered fuel-cell cars will be in showrooms by 2004 is even more exciting. It is true that their only exhaust is water vapor. However, Hertsgaard seems reluctant to spoil the party by telling us where the hydrogen comes from. It is certainly not out there floating around in large amounts free for the asking. Fuel-cell-powered autos would make for much more efficient use of the ubiquitous fossil fuels, but propulsion free...
...efficient electric lights, motors and insulation, all technologies currently available on the world market. Americans could trade in their notoriously gas-swilling SUVs for sporty new 80-m.p.g. hybrid-electric cars. Better yet: hydrogen-powered fuel-cell cars, expected in showrooms by 2004. Since their only exhaust is water vapor, fuel-cell cars produce neither smog nor global warming...
...them then. Now, numerous covers, one big Todd Terry remix club hit ("Missing"), one milestone album (Walking Wounded), several style shifts and too many years later, they hit out with a diffused house album that can't reach the mark. Temperamental is a post-trolling album; it whiffs like vapor. It is typically morose and introspective; you could mistake at first that the disconnection between Thorn's dreary vocals and Watt's creative instrumental mischief is intentional to achieve a wasteland acoustic for Watt's sensitive lyrics. But, no. The only piece that holds up is "Five Fathoms," and that...
...shortly after 6 a.m. bounced off the roof. According to a document at the FBI's legal counsel's office dated February 1996--but that officials say they realized only last week was significant--HRT agents asked to use M651 military rounds because the heat they generate produces a vapor that provides greater penetrating power. A yet unidentified FBI official on the ground authorized the plan but did not report it to Washington. The two M651 rounds ricocheted off the bunker and bounced uselessly into a field...
