I was standing in the middle of the chaos of my kitchen on Saturday trying to get some order, and not succeeding very quickly. It seemed that I had prom- ised to make something different for each member -of the family,'and'I-was trying to have it done be- ' fore they arrived home from their various pursuits. • I was listening to my favourite, CBC radio, and the science show which usedto be Jay Ingram's "Quirks and Quarks". I think Bob MacKenzie is the host now, but anyway that is be- sidethe point. Myson.has developed an interest in astronomy. I'm not sure if itis just a way to be allowed to stay/411p later or not, but the 'interest is'there. That is also beside the point...but not really. :But, back to Saturday. Over the radio I heard that the Rus- sian space station MIR will be passing over Canada and per- forming an experiment never done before. It will be flying closely with the spacecraft Progress, and they will be attempt- ing touse a mirror to shine light from the sun onto the.dark side of the Earth. From what I understood, the light will only last for about a second as the spacecraftifly overhead, but the flash of light could be as bright as a full moon and cause a shadow to move around you, if you are lucky enough to be standing in its path. MIR and.Progress will be readily visible from Earth as two fairly bright lights passing through the sky, and even if you are not lucky enough to see the flash of light from the mirror, for those of you that are up, or those of you who are interested enough to take the time and make the effort to see them, the viewing times ate as follows: (It probably .wouldn't>hun,to be outside about 10 minutes before and 10 minutes after just to be sure.) Thursday, February 4, 6:32 a.m., look north about 1/3 of the way up from the horizon. The craft will be travelling from west to north-east. Friday, February 5, 5:35 a.m., look north and the craft should pass high overhead frpm west to east. Saturday, February 6, 6:15 a.m.., again face north and look overhead. The craft will passtfrom west to north-east. Capsule Comments with Erie Miatello __-,_.__ Good news? As we age, we get fewer colds. Although we can catch colds at any time of the year, most occur in the fall winter because we spend more time indoors and the virus is more easily spread. Aluminum is one of the most abundant elements on earth. It is known that Alzheimer's patients have from 10-50 times the normal amount of aluminum in their brains, but no one knows if this actually causes the disease or not, Where do we get our dietary aluminum from? Aluminum is found in. baking powder, processed cheese, fruits and vegetables (which get it from the soil), buffered aspirin and some antacides. But don't throw out all those aluminum pots and pans. Aluminum from this source is very minimal. To minimize the swelling from a sprain, use RICE. this acronym stands for Rest the injury; apply Ice for 20 minutes at a time for a couple days; Use Qompression via a support bandage; Elevate the In- jury about the the level of the heart.
