at some deep-sky objects in Sagittarius. When I turned to M70, I saw a fuzzy
object in the same field, and almost immediately suspected a comet, since I had
been looking at M70 last month, and *knew* there wasn't any other objects
there."
Thomas Bopp explains his story like this, "On the night of July 22, 1995
some friends and I headed out into the desert for a dark of the moon observing
session. The site, which is west of Stanfield, AZ and a few mile south of
Interstate 8 is about 90 miles southwest from my home.
My friend Jim Stevens had .....

Vivisection
Number of words: 1437 - Number of pages: 6.... Galen, used five
pigs to investigate the effects of several nerves (1:4). He is considered to be
the founder of experimental physiology. During the Renaissance Era, Andreas
Vesalius conducted experiments on monkeys, swine, and goats (1:3). By the late
eighteenth century, the methods of scientific discovery were changer to
experimentation of live animals by two French physiologists, Claude Bernard and
Francious Magnedie. They revolutionized methods of scientific discovery by
establishing live animal as common practice (1:4). Claude Bernard believed that .....

The Dust-Cloud Hypothesis
Number of words: 318 - Number of pages: 2.... resulted from the collapse caused the sun
to become very hot and to glow brightly.
The newly born sun began to heat up the swirling eddy of gas and dust that
was to become the earth. The gas expanded, and some of it flowed away into
space. The dust that remained behind then collected together because of
gravity. Although the shrinking earth generated a lot of heat, most of
this heat was lost into space. Therefore, the original earth was most
likely solid, not molten.
This hypothesis was developed by a scientest, Harold C. Urey in 1952. It is
also known as .....

Number of words: 1018 - Number of pages: 4.... ultraviolet radiation from the sun. This radiation is the one which would not reach the lower atmosphere in large amounts because of the ozone layer. When these s do brake down, they released atomic chlorine which then would react with the ozone and convert it back into plain oxygen. The even worse part of all this is that these chlorine molecules do not become inactive after the first reaction with the ozone and would be available to destroy more ozone molecules. Thus this process would be the function of a catalyst; a single chlorine atom involved .....

Is occurring?
- According to Accu-Weather, the world's leading commercial forecaster, "Global air temperatures as measured by land-based weather stations show an increase of about 0.45 degrees Celsius over the past century. This may be no more than normal climatic variation...and several biases in the data may be responsible for some of this increase."
- Satellite data indicate a slight cooling in the climate in the last 18 years. These satellites use advanced technology and are not subject to the "heat island" effect around majo .....
