...book well suited to the relatively inexperienced cook, he includes such simple, solid fare as hamburgers, braised shoulder of lamb, German vegetable beef soup and French crullers. He gives meat loaf some style by way of jalapeno peppers, tenderizes and flavors broiled duck with a ginger-and-wine-vinegar marinade and imparts a herbaceous Provence fragrance to the lowly blowfish. Clams in black bean sauce, beef stew in a pumpkin, and mousse of sea scallops are among the showier offerings. Seafood cookery and baking are his specialties; the first is the feature of his own restaurant in ^ Greenwich Village...

Such products are made possible by space's environment of near total vacuum and near zero gravity. Those conditions cannot be easily duplicated on earth, and they permit heretofore impossible experiments and manufacturing processes. In space, an oil-and-vinegar salad dressing stays perfectly mixed because there is no gravity to pull the ingredients apart. Mixed the same way, superstrong metal alloys could be made in the absence of gravity's pull. Unlike oil and vinegar, the new alloys would then stay together after their return to earth. Deere & Co., the Illinois tractor maker, is investigating the impact...
...1960s Dr. Landrum Shettles of New York City's Columbia-Presbyterian Medical Center created a sensation with his announcement that gender was influenced by the timing of conception within the menstrual cycle and by the acidity or alkalinity of the female reproductive tract. A douche of vinegar, he contended, would confer an advantage on sperm bearing an X chromosome (for females), while a douche of baking soda would shift the odds toward the Y-bearing sperm (for males). Shettles' theory has now been generally discredited...
