	Venus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Venus is a bit like the chicken cooked in the first of these styles, with one side facing the heat for a long time.
		Venus is just about as big and massive as the Earth, and should have the same difficulty as the Earth does in radiating away its internal heat to space.
		Venus has much less delineation, and it is a little worrying that the geological activity on Venus seems to have produced so little large-scale structure.

	Venus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
		Venus is one of the brightest objects in the Earth's sky.
		Known historically as both the morning and evening star, Venus' brightness is due to its proximity to the sun and to the Earth, and to its highly reflective clouds.
		Venus has a very dense atmosphere and thick, yellowish-white clouds always conceal its surface.

	To Venus And Back
		A cursory listen to Venus Orbiting reveals that the Girl With The Piano that is Tori may as well be a fond memory: on almost half the tracks here, the piano doesn't figure.
		She gets sucked back to the 80's, she sings, and attends a wild party of sex and drugs and rock-n-roll.
		Backed by a wailing dance track, she lists phrases unrelated and without any order.

	SPACE.com -- Venus is Back: Spot the Early Morning Beacon
		The planet Venus has returned to the early morning sky and has established itself as a dazzling morning lantern, emerging into view from beyond the east-southeast horizon before 5:00 a.m.
		During March and April, Venus will appear to slowly lower a bit in altitude in the predawn sky, but then from late April through about the middle of August, it will appear to rise at approximately the same time as the beginning of morning twilight, roughly two hours before sunrise.
		Whenever Venus appears as a thin crescent, I often like to relate a very amusing story related by George Lovi (1939-1993) who was a well-known astronomy lecturer and author.

	The Venus of Willendorf
		Back to Venus figures from the Stone Age
		The Venus of Willendorf was carved from oolitic limestone, and was covered with a thick layer of red ochre when found.
		Some may argue that because obesity was rare and may have conferred a survival benefit during times of food shortage (much like non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus and the thrifty genotype), it was desirable and worthy of ritualization in the form of statuettes.

		Venus became the first woman since 1935 to win the Wimbledon trophy after facing a match point -– and that’s unbelievable as far as I’m concerned.
		I must say that it is fabulous to have Venus back at the top of her game and in the limelight.

	To Venus and Back - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		To Venus and Back is a two-disc album set released by singer and songwriter Tori Amos in 1999.
		The second disc, called Venus Live: Still Orbiting was a thirteen track album compilation of live tracks from her 1997-98 tour.
		The album, which began life as a proposed b-sides album, finds Amos' voice and piano subverted in a sonic maze of electronic washes and effects, and some songs, notably "Juarez," a reflection of murdered female maquiladora workers in Mexico, and the epic "Datura," are largely built around these effects.

	"to venus and back" - Music Chart Watch
		Below you will find the latest information I have on how the album "to venus and back" and some of its singles are doing on various music charts.
		This appears to be the hightest official chart position that "to venus and back" reached in the world.
		Katja Laitinen reports that TVAB debuted at #30 at the official Finnish chart, which is pretty OK considering that "From The Choirgirl Hotel" didn't make it to TOP 40 at all and "Venus" being a double album.

	Tori Amos - To Venus and Back (Album Review)
		Which brings us, finally, to 1999 and To Venus and Back, Amos' fifth and final disc of the century (or, more accurately, her fifth and sixth discs, as To Venus and Back comes packed to the rafters with 11 new studio tracks and 13 live tunes from Amos' '98 Plugged Tour).
		Elsewhere, Concertina coasts on its sweetly insistent synthesizer-line, and 1000 Oceans (or, for all practical purposes, Josephine: Part Deux) is either one of the most refreshingly straight-forward ballads Amos has ever wrapped her habitually sibilant lips around or a song so god-awful mawkish even Celine Dion wouldn't be caught dead covering it.
		If To Venus and Back's first disc sometimes seems too low-key and non-confrontational for its own good, disc two commits the opposite sin.

	Tori Amos: To Venus And Back --- Ink Blot Magazine
		Born Myra Ellen Amos in Newton, North Carolina, the girl who would be Tori was given her name by a friend's boyfriend, who thought she just looked more like a "Tori." Growing up in a strict Christian household, she found release by playing on the piano at her Cherokee grandparents' house.
		Her fifth album To Venus and Back will feature live versions of older songs in addition to 11 new originals.
		It wouldn't be hard to believe she had found her inspiration whilst bouncing around the cosmos in a paint-spattered space shuttle writing down observations of unique life forms much like herself.

	Tori Amos - The Beekeeper
		For this album, she realized that "the only way to address the severing that was happening in America itself was to go into myself as a Christian woman.
		If Jesus' teachings are being hijacked and manipulated by politicians, then I must therefore go back as a daughter of the Christian church into that system and that symbolism and those allegories." Amos certainly has the background.
		The daughter of a Methodist minister, she quite literally grew up in the church, and she talks about her childhood and relationship with religion at length in the book Tori Amos: Piece by Piece, which she wrote with the great music journalist Ann Powers.
