"As Earth was being formed out of the collision of space rocks, the heat from those
collisions and from the increasing gravitational energy of the planet made the entire
planet molten, even the surface. Any water present would have evaporated and gone off
into space. As the planet approached its current size, however, its gravitation became
strong enough to hold gases and water vapor around it as an atmosphere. Because
comets are largely ice made up of frozen water and gases, a comet striking Earth then
would have vaporized. The resulting water vapor would have been retained in the
atmosphere, eventually falling as rain on the cooled and solidified surface of Earth.
Therefore, the water in Earth's oceans must have originated from comets."

"Doctors have long suspected that secondary infections may keep some patients from
healing quickly after severe muscle strain. This hypothesis has now been proved by
preliminary results of a study of two groups of patients. The first group of patients, all
being treated for muscle injuries by Dr. Newland, a doctor who specializes in sports
medicine, took antibiotics regularly throughout their treatment. Their recuperation time
was, on average, 40 percent quicker than typically expected. Patients in the second
group, all being treated by Dr. Alton, a general physician, were given sugar pills,
although the patients believed they were taking antibiotics. Their average recuperation
time was not significantly reduced. Therefore, all patients who are diagnosed with
muscle strain would be well advised to take antibiotics as part of their treatment."

"Several well-known, retired architects were interviewed in Architecture Today about
changes in the field. Only one had earned a college degree in architecture. All others had
come into the field at an early age by serving apprenticeships that required them to work
under the direct supervision of an experienced architect. Several of the colleges that we
