The once and future city
Article Abstract:
Significant changes have taken place in Berlin, Germany, since the collapse of the Berlin Wall. However, there are still many signs that the city continues to struggle to come to terms with its past. Some of the buildings that characterized Berlin before it was divided by the Berlin Wall, such as the Hotel Adlon, have been rebuilt according to original plans, and this makes it hard to determine whether Berlin is looking to the past or the future. Despite extensive construction work, it is impossible to escape the past in Berlin.

A very, very dark spot on the horizon
Article Abstract:
Those wishing to view the solar eclipse due to take place on Aug 11, 1999, may wish to travel to Cornwall, England, where it is still possible to find accommodation for that time at fairly reasonable prices. However, roads to Cornwall may be very congested. Alternative locations from which to view the solar eclipse include Dieppe, France, which is around 20 miles north of the central line of totality, central Iran, where there will almost certainly be a cloudless sky, and the Isles of Scilly.
