A 10-month-old baby was attacked by a neighbor's dog in Pasco County Friday afternoon, authorities said.
It happened around 2 p.m. at a home in Holiday.
Investigators say the child's mother and a neighbor were outside talking when they heard growling from inside the house. When they went in they found the dog, a pit bull breed, attacking the baby, the sheriff's office said.
The child was taken to the hospital with bite marks to his head and shoulders. There was no immediate word on his condition.
Animal services confiscated the dog for observation. There's no word yet whether any charges will be filed.

A Texas mom with type-1 diabetes tired of constant insulin injections and has designed a device that is giving a new option to patients with diabetes. KK Patton calls her invention the I-Port.
It is about the size of a quarter and when applied to the skin, a needle is injected using a fine catheter. When the needle is removed, the catheter stays in place. Insulin is then injected into the I-Port.
Endocrinologist Dr. Rajiv Dattatreya, says of the device, "You just have to stick yourself once every three days and you're minimizing the number of needles sticks from 12 sticks every three days, to one every three days."
The I-Ports are disposable and each costs $10.

Westboro Baptist Church to Picket Ryan Dunn's Funeralby Free Britney at . Comments
The Westboro Baptist Church is at it again.
The notorious, radical Kansas group responsible for protests at the funerals of gay rights supporters, Iraq war veterans, Elizabeth Edwards and innocent children alike, announced plans to picket the funeral of Jackass star Ryan Dunn.
In the news release, titled "Ryan Dunn is in hell!" Westboro calls for the picket due to "vulgar stunts" and involvement in MTV's Jackass franchise.
The 34-year-old Dunn perished in a car crash early Monday morning, along with friend Zachary Hartwell. Dunn was driving drunk and very fast.
Ryan's death has generated controversy in part due to comments by Roger Ebert, who criticized his apparent drunk driving the very same day.
It's clear Dunn's bad decision making played a role in his demise, along with Hartwell's. But both men deserved to be buried in peace and remembered fondly by those close to them without Westboro Baptist Church's meddling.
We're not advocating any sort of violent confrontation by any means ... but let's just say if Bam Margera and the Jackass crew decided to f*%k with the Westboro peeps via some elaborate pranks, we wouldn't stand in their way.

Does anybody have any idea what Mad is talking about? What language is he using? Blah blah blah. Is exhausting trying to decipher the gibberish.
My God, is that really a church? I can't believe there's a church like that.. So rude.. I red the WBC articles I can't even imagine they wrote words like that.. God's not happy about that. Did WBC think that even they protest Ryan's funeral, God already welcomed Ryan in heaven?
Dats wat I mean u can picket sumbody funeral but u can't or won't find out bout da priest who wuz fuckn dees lil boys n shit. I feel like emimnem "Go 2 war wit da momans take a bath wit da cathlics. N holy water no wonder they try 2 hold me unda longer. I'm a muthafuckn spitful delightful da new idol muthafuckas hate 2 like the new ICE CUBE I'm jus a kid from da gutta makn dis butta off u blood suckas cuz I'm a RENEGADE NEVA BN AFRIAD 2 SAY WATS ON MIND. Y havnt da church ppl bn @ him oh yeah they scared of dat WHITE BOY
As a resident of Kansas that disagrees with everything Fred Phelps and his nasty, vicious cult stand for I say to the Jackass boys and all of their fans, Bring it!! RIP Ryan Dunn. XOXO
What kind of religion has such disrespect for someone? If anyone's going to hell then it's them fuckers and they need to deal with their own problems, Ryan Dunn's friends, family and fans have been crying all week so if I was there and I saw any of them hypocrites Ryan Dunn wouldn't be the only one having a funeral.
i hope the jackass crew goes the fuck off on these hypocritical fucks. this is fucking bullshit. This is the reason religion is a joke....how can this be the work of god??? protesting at a funeral where friends and family are mourning the loss of a loved one. Its shit like this that makes me shake my head at "the people of god". You fucking idiots are beyond fucking stupid. and your fucking god wont save. IF HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS WHERE THE FUCK IS HE NOW...
It is not acceptable to picket somebody's funeral... if they really are Christians they should know that only God can pass judgement, and that it is not our place. Nobody is perfect.. and to have a protest at a funeral is going to be so disrespectful to his family and friends. I really won't be surprised if Bam knocks someone out !!
These hypoctitical fucks sound like modern day nazis to me...... Scorning those who dont live up to their standards. My question is who the fuck are you to judge anyone Fred Phelps????? You hide behind the word of God but your a wanna be christian you faggot fuck! Youre the biggest hypocrite to walk the earth i hope people protest your funeral when you die fucker!! O yeah if you fuck around at the Dunn funeral that just might be a big mistake they would eat you for breakfast!
Do these dumbasses realize how big of a hypocrite they are being. I find it so funny that they claim they are christians. HA! What a joke.
Westboro has no right, this is going to far. I'm aware of free speech bit they are way over the line. You DO NOT in any circumstance picket someones funeral

A Simple Two-Sector Model of Outsourcing
AbstractOutsourcing has become an increasingly contentious subject ever since N. Gregory Mankiw remarked in 2004 that outsourcing is just another way of doing international trade, and must be beneficial to the nation, including the workers. We construct a simple two-sector specific-factor model and explore the validity of Mankiw's remarks. We find his ideas are valid when the country does not produce any outsourced factor's work at home in that both the laborers and the nation benefit. But when some outsourced factor cum intermediate good is also produced at home, the nation still benefits but the workers may suffer. Copyright � 2010 Blackwell Publishing Ltd.

What is a catalytic format?
- Catalytic
- Known in wood stoves as "Cat" for short, the Catalytic combustion process uses a honeycombed ceramic chamber coated with a metal catalyst to increase the rate of combustion and lower the burning temperature of the wood. Vermont Castings makes catalytic wood stoves wit the highest EPA ratings in the industry.
Why Vermont Castings?
Green Materials
100% recycled iron and reused raw materials, like automotive brake drums and rotors, are used to make our wood burning stoves. Even leftover iron scraps from completed models are reused to minimize waste!
Our casting process uses environmentally friendly natural sand and clay to bond the molds for our stoves together rather than an artificial polymer. We use it again and again to help save resources.
Green Power
Our plant runs on 60% hydro power—a renewable and clean resource—and 40% nuclear power, which is also a clean resource.
We even work in partnership with Efficiency Vermont to install highly-efficient lights and motors. We changed all our light bulbs at both the foundry and the plant to T5 fluorescents!
Green Results
Our wood burning stoves lead the industry in efficiency to help reduce fuel costs.
Plus, no wood stove manufacturer can match Vermont Castings' history of consistently exceeding the EPA's standards for emissions.
Proudly Made in the USA
Each Vermont Castings product is produced with precision, attention to detail and a deep-rooted pride in our heritage and craft. In fact, our Vermont foundry is like a family and many of us have been here as long as Vermont Castings has been around.

You will spend half of the course in academic study and half in clinical practice. Clinical placements will enable you to develop insight into the different cultural and social influences upon child-bearing women and a broad perspective on the delivery of midwifery care. Interdisciplinary learning will enable you to appreciate the importance of working within a team alongside other health professionals.

The application of your knowledge to midwifery practice will also be assessed through coursework (worth 50% of module marks).
+ Professional Development and Research 1
This module involves multidisciplinary team working with Nursing, Midwifery, Occupational Therapy, Operating Department Practice, Physiotherapy and Podiatry students.

Firstly you will complete an online open book exam to demonstrate your research knowledge (worth 100% of module marks). Secondly as you are introduced to the idea of reflective practice and lifelong learning, you will develop a reflective log (which must be passed to successfully complete the module).
+ Principles of Midwifery Care
This module introduces the principles of midwifery practice in all aspects of pregnancy, childbearing and the postnatal period including care of the newborn. You will explore the midwife's role, responsibilities and sphere of practice including ethical issues, confidentiality and accurate documentation, which will be assessed in an exam (worth 50% of module marks).

You will also be introduced to medicines management with safe drug calculation being developed through online tutorials and demonstrated by passing an online exam.
+ Psycho-Social and Policy Aspects of Midwifery Practice

1 × 10.5 cm SK C/32 naval gun[1] with 110 rounds
Various combinations of AA cannons: Common calibers 20mm, 30mm and 37mm
The Type IX U-boat was designed by Germany in 1935 and 1936 as a large ocean-going submarine for sustained operations far from the home support facilities. Type IX boats were briefly used for patrols off the eastern United States in an attempt to disrupt the stream of troops and supplies bound for Europe. The extended range came at the cost of longer dive times and decreased maneuverability, which is why the smaller Type VII was produced in greater numbers and used for the bulk of operations.[citation needed] It was derived from the Type IA, and appeared in various sub-types.
Type IXs had six torpedo tubes; four at the bow and two at the stern. They carried six reloads internally and had five external torpedo containers (three at the stern and two at the bow) which stored ten additional torpedoes. The total of 22 torpedoes allowed U-boat commanders to follow a convoy and strike night after night. As mine-layers they could carry 44 TMA or 66 TMB mines, but many of the IXC boats were not fitted for mine operations.
Secondary armament was provided by one large Utof 105/45 gun with about 110 rounds. Anti-aircraft armament differed throughout the war. They had two periscopes in the tower. Types IXA and IXB had an additional periscope in the control room, which was removed in Type IXC and afterward.

Type IXB was an improved model with an increased range. It was the most successful version overall with each boat averaging a total of over 100,000 tonnes sunk.
Notable IXB boats included U-123 commanded by Reinhard Hardegen, which opened up the attack in the US waters in early 1942 known as Operation Drumbeat, and U-107 operating off Freetown, Sierra Leone under the command of Günther Hessler, which had the most successful single mission of the war ever with close to 100,000 tonnes sunk.
List of Type IXB submarines[edit]
AG Weser of Bremen built 14 Type IXB U-boats.

63 nautical miles (117 km; 72 mi) at 4 kn (7.4 km/h) submerged
Type IXC was a further refinement of the class with storage for an additional 43 tonnes of fuel, increasing the boat's range. This series omitted the control room periscope leaving the boats with two tower scopes.
As mine-layers they could carry 44 TMA or 66 TMB mines, though U-162 through U-170 and U-505 through U-550 (35 boats), were not fitted for mine operations.[3]
One IXC carries the distinction of being the only U-boat sunk in the Gulf of Mexico, U-166.
U-505 survives at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago, and as of 2005 has been completely renovated.[4]
List of Type IXC submarines[edit]

Type IXC/40 was an improved Type IXC with slightly increased range and surfaced speed. The remains of U-534 are on display at Woodside Ferry Terminal, Birkenhead.[5]
List of Type IXC/40 submarines[edit]
AG Weser and Seebeckwerft of Bremen, and Deutsche Werft of Hamburg, built 87 of this type.
Type IXD[edit]
|General characteristics (IXD)[6]
|1,610 t (1,580 long tons) surfaced

57 nautical miles (106 km; 66 mi) at 4 kn (7.4 km/h) submerged
Type IXD was significantly longer and heavier than the IXC/40. It was faster than the IXC but at the cost of slightly reduced range. They had three pairs of Daimler Benz diesels: two pairs for cruise and one for high speed or battery recharge. There were three variants: the IXD1, IXD2 and IXD/42. The IXD1 had unreliable engines and they were later converted for use in surface transport vessels. The IXD2 comprised most of the class and had a range of over 23,700 miles. The IXD/42, was almost identical but with more engine power (5,400 ehp instead of 4,400).
In 1943 and 1944 the torpedo tubes were removed from a number of IXD boats converted for transport use. In their new role they could transport 252 tonnes of cargo.
List of Type IXD submarines[edit]
AG Weser of Bremen built 30 Type IXD U-boats.
Several Type IXD/42 U-boats were contracted to be built AG Weser of Bremen, but only two were commissioned. They were:
- U-883 was launched on April 28, 1944 and commissioned March 27, 1945. Her career ended in Operation Deadlight.
- U-884 was launched on May 17, 1944 but was badly damaged on March 30, 1945 by US bombs while still in the dockyard.
- U-885, U-886, U-887 and U-888 were laid down but construction halted on September 30, 1943 when all IXD/42 contracts were cancelled.

A boy awaits the school bus outside of his home in Galle Fort. The Portuguese built a small fort in Galle in the 16th century. During the 17th century, the Dutch rebuilt the town and strengthened the fortifications, when the English took over in the late 1700s. Today, there are fewer than 200 homes inside the historic fort, whose architecture mimics the area's blend of national and colonial Sri Lankan influences. "Galle is a wonderful place to walk around and get lost," says Mohan. "I would put my camera on my shoulder and stop to watch a woman bringing back vegetables from the market."

Portland Oregon – The New York Red Bulls overcame a two-goal deficit and a sellout crowd of 18,627 to tie the Portland Timbers 3-3 at the JELD-WEN Field on Father's Day. As a result of Sunday night's tie, the 5-2-8 Red Bulls now own sole possession of the Eastern Conference.
Playing their first match of a four-game road trip, the New York Red Bulls temporarily silenced the Portland Timbers crowd when Austin da Luz registered a goal in the fifth minute of the Sunday's bizarre soccer match. Despite Portland's attempts to equalize the game, the Red Bulls played a solid first half where the scored concluded with a 1-0 Red Bull advantage.
Desperately needing to end their three-game losing streak, the 5-6-3 Portland Timbers minus their suspended coach John Spencer roared back furiously as they overcame their one-goal deficit with two quick goals of their own. Portand's rally started in the 48th minute in the second half when Timbers' Jack Jewsbury rocketed a blast past Red Bulls GK Greg Sutton to level the match 1-1.
A minute later, Jewsbury played a pivotal role when he passed the ball to teammate Eric Brunner off a free kick who in turn headed to ball toward Kevin Goldthwaite who clearly finished the set piece play for a Timbers 2-1 lead.
If things couldn't get worse for the Red Bulls, former Timbers Stephen Keel provided his former teammates another goal when he accidently tapped in Portland's Jorge Perlaza pass in the penalty area in the 67th minute of the match. Being down by two-goals, it appeared the Red Bulls five game unbeaten streak was coming to a close.
Despite the pro-Timbers crowd madly cheering on their team, the Red Bulls reduced the deficit to one-goal when Thierry Henry scored his eighth goal of the season. In a sequence of where Henry passed the ball to Joel Lindpere who returned to Henry as he streaked past his defender while passing the ball to teammate Austin de Luz who quickly passed it Henry for a clear blast in the 73rd minute.
Two minutes later, Portland was awarded a penalty kick when Red Bulls GK Greg Sutton was called for a questionable foul on Portland's Jorge Perlaza. With the opportunity to regain a two-goal lead, Portland's Jack Jewsbury failed miserably to convert the penalty kick as it was easily blocked by Greg Sutton.
Just when it appeared the Portland Timbers had secured the win when Thierry Henry was automatically ejected after being issued a red card in the stoppage time, Timber's Rodney Wallace literally handed the Red Bulls a penalty kick when he attempted to intercept Dwayne De Rosario's cross.
Making the most of this opportunity, De Rosario successfully converted the penalty kick and the Red Bulls escaped Portland with a 3-3 tie. Next up for the Red Bulls is the 6-4-7 Seattle Sounders who they will meet in Qwest Field on Thursday, June 23rd at 10p.m. ET.

Here's a simplified look at what they found.
Retargeting – Served to users that have previously visited an advertiser's site.
ReTargeted ads had the highest lift in trademark search behavior with a whopping 1,046 percent. The downside is that retargeting by the very nature of the beast, doesn't reach as many potential customers so it's perfect for those who have a high volume of abandoned shopping carts.
Premium Pricing – High visibility placements on premium publishers.
The downside here is the cost, but research showed a higher than average lift for this type of ad.
Contextual Targeting – Ads served to related page-level content
Also an expensive option, but the upside is that contextual advertising had a much larger reach than other types, surpassed only by. . .
Run-of-Network (RON) – Ads which appear anywhere in the network, often optimized by conversion
Efficiency Pricing – Cost-per-click engagement with creative
Both of these were looked at as low cost alternatives that have the best reach but don't have the lift of targeted ads.
So retargeting it is! Except for one thing. Anne Hunter, comScore vice president of Advertising Effectiveness said in a recent press release:
"One of the key findings of this research is just how effective Retargeting is at generating lift. However, if marketers want to continue to enjoy the benefits of this highly effective strategy, they must also deploy it responsibly and in a manner with which consumers are comfortable."
This is a topic we've discussed before and I don't know if I'm just noticing them more often or if more advertisers are using them, but I still find it a little freaky, particularly when the ad doesn't jive with the page I'm reading. For example, yesterday I was reading a serious interview with a breast cancer survivor and the ad that popped up was for a toy store I'd recently visited. Cute, animated mascot and breast cancer just don't mix. I noticed the ad, but not in a good way.
comScore also found good results among advertisers that used a mix of three or more placement strategies at the same time. In one campaign that used five different methods, the average number of minutes on the brand's site rose to seven times the norm.
Have you tried retargeting? We'd be interested in hearing your thoughts and results.

Hey where did we go,
Days when the rains came
Down in the hollow,
Playin' a new game,
Laughing and a running hey, hey
Skipping and a jumping
In the misty morning fog with
Our hearts a thumpin' and you
My brown eyed girl,
You my brown eyed girl.
Whatever happened
To Tuesday and so slow
Going down the old mine
With a transistor radio
Standing in the sunlight laughing,
Hiding behind a rainbow's wall,
Slipping and sliding
All along the water fall, with you
My brown eyed girl,
You my brown eyed girl.
Do you remember when we used to sing,
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da
So hard to find my way,
Now that I'm all on my own.
I saw you just the other day,
My how you have grown,
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometime I'm overcome thinking 'bout
Making love in the green grass
Behind the stadium with you
My brown eyed girl
You my brown eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing
Sha la la la la la la la la la la te da.
Can't you see, can't you see, what that woman, she been doing to me? <3

Declining graduation rates and increasing student loan debts are topics of concern in Washington.
EAST LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) – As dozens of people gathered outside of the Hannah Community Center in East Lansing on Monday afternoon to honor a local Medal of Honor recipient who gave his life in the line of duty, a former classmate reflected on their time together in grade school more than 70 years ago. WATCH VIDEO HERE"[He was] the kind you want to hang around with, and you're proud to be a friend of," says George Masters. George Masters says he met Sherrod Skinner Jr. around the seventh grade, and although Skinner moved away before graduating high school, they both followed similar paths in the military. "I went to Michigan State and took ROTC and also became an artillery officer, as Rod was, and went to Korea like he did," says Masters, who fought during the last seven months of the Korean War. "I was much more fortunate than Rod. I wasn't in such a harrowing situation as he was."On October 26, 1952, Marine Corps Reserve Second Lt. Sherrod Skinner Jr. was killed when he jumped on an enemy grenade so others could live. He was posthumously awarded the Medal of Honor for his act of courage, becoming only one of two in the tri-county area to receive the honor. "To be only the second one in the area…it's a very significant event," says Masters. The City of East Lansing and the East Lansing Rotary Club paid tribute to Skinner's sacrifice by raising funds to erect a memorial in Skinner's memory, and on Monday, the East Lansing community celebrated Skinner's legacy at a special dedication ceremony. "This is a long overdue tribute for [Skinner] and his family for what he has sacrificed for all of us," says East Lansing Mayor Diane Goddeeris. The memorial stands outside of the Hannah Community Center, formerly East Lansing Junior High, which Skinner attended. Donations for the memorial are still being sought.

The Girl Scout Leadership Experience
When girls all across the country share a core national leadership experience, they enjoy being part of something bigger than themselves, they have fun, and their voices get louder and their influence gets stronger. They can see for themselves what the world looks like when girls get together to make the world a better place and what it feels like when they make a difference in the world.
In Girl Scouting, Discover + Connect + Take Action = Leadership
All Girl Scout experiences are intentionally designed to tie to one or more of the 15 national leadership outcomes, or benefits, categorized under the three keys to leadership:
- Discover:
- Girls develop a strong sense of self
- Girls develop positive values
- Girls gain practical skills
- Girls seek challenges in the world
- Girls develop critical thinking
- Connect:
- Girls develop healthy relationships
- Girls promote cooperation and team building
- Girls can resolve conflicts
- Girls advance diversity in a multicultural world
- Girls feel connected to their communities, locally and globally
- Take Action: Girls act to make the world a better place.
- Girls can identify community needs
- Girls are resourceful problem solvers
- Girls advocate for themselves and others, locally and globally
- Girls educate and inspire others to act
- Girls feel empowered to make a difference in the world
In Girl Scouting, it's not just "what" girls do (activities), but "how" (processes) they do them. When used together, these processes - Girl Led, Cooperative Learning, and Learning by Doing - ensure the quality and promote the fun and friendship so integral to Girl Scouting.
Here's how Girl Scouts defines these processes:
- Girl-led: Girls lead the planning and decision-making as much as possible. This will ensure that the girls are engaged in their learning and experience leadership opportunities as they prepare to become active participants in their local and global communities.
- Learning by Doing: (also known as experiential learning) A hands-on learning process that engages girls in continuous cycles of action and reflection that result in deeper understanding of concepts and mastery of practical skills. As they participate in meaningful activities and then reflect on them, girls get to explore their own questions, discover answers, gain new skills, and share ideas and observations with others. This helps them apply what they have learned to their future experiences.
- Cooperative Learning: Girls work together toward shared goals in an atmosphere of respect and collaboration that encourages the sharing of skills, knowledge, and learning. It' not just about sharing the glue when completing a project at a troop meeting! Working together in all-girl environments also encourages girls to feel powerful and emotionally and physically safe, and it allows them to experience a sense of belonging even in the most diverse groups.

The Ultimate Stress Reliever
Reporting in the journal Science, researchers say they've discovered a surprising wrinkle in the geologic story behind one of the most devastating earthquakes in recent memory: the March 2011 Tohoku earthquake that spawned 130-foot tsunami waves, killed 15,800 people and led to a crisis at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant. The researchers determined that current shear stress on the fault that generated the earthquake is nearly zero. In other words, the violent spasm that released the earthquake also shook out all the pent up stress on the fault. Alan McStravick, writing in a recent article for the website Red Orbit, explained why this was such a shocker: "The paper's presentation of this fact flies in the face of the prevailing wisdom that earthquakes will typically only release a portion of … Read entire article »

Earthquake Signals Tectonic Plate Ripping Apart
Three papers in this week's issue of the journal Nature present startling new findings about an earthquake that struck the Indian Ocean off the coast of Sumatra last April. As reported by Andrea Mustain at Our Amazing Planet, three features of the quake made it unusual: First, it was extremely powerful—at magnitude 8.7, it was the sixth most powerful ever recorded. Second, it struck in the middle of a tectonic plate and not along a plate boundary. Third, when the quake zipped along the initial fault and ran into faults intersecting it at right angles, those intersecting faults ruptured too. Mustain interviewed Thorne Lay, a professor at the University of California, Santa Cruz and co-author of one of the papers: Lay said that, typically, when earthquakes spread to connecting faults, the rupture rips along … Read entire article »

Desperate Measure Yields Insights for Delta Restoration
In late spring 2011, one of the largest pulses of water in recorded history traveled down the Mississippi River, threatening the ports, industries, farms and towns of the river's lower reaches, including New Orleans. To avert disaster, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers opened the Bonnet Carré Spillway and diverted from 10 to 20 percent of the total river flood discharge into Lake Ponchartrain. Jeffrey Nittrouer, a National Science Foundation post-doctoral researcher at the University of Illinois, studied the impacts of the diversion shortly after the floodwaters subsided. Surprisingly, he found that 31-46% of the total sand load carried by the river during the 6 weeks the spillway was open was carried through the spillway. The location of the spillway was not intentionally chosen for delta restoration. But Nittrouer determined its land building power came from the … Read entire article »

Field Update: Drilling Through the Japan Earthquake Fault
After successfully reentering the wellhead on the edge of the Japan Trench on the seafloor 6926 meters (4.3 miles) below the ship, we began drilling. The goal: to drill ~850 meters (2800 feet) below the seafloor across the plate boundary and through the fault that slipped more than 50 meters (164 feet) at this location during the March 2011 Tohoku earthquake causing the enormous tsunami. We will then try installing a temperature observatory down into the hole to measure the remaining frictional heat across the fault. Instead of using the standard top-drive drilling system on the ship to rotate the entire drill stem and create the torque on the drill bit 7-8 kilometers below, as in the previous drilling at the site, this time we used a mud-motor located just above … Read entire article »

Field Update: Like Threading a Needle from 7 kilometers away
The goal we are working towards on the JFAST2 expedition is to install an observatory of temperature sensors across the fault zone that slipped more than 50 meters during the March 2011 Tohoku Earthquake. The temperature sensors will allow us to measure the frictional heat and determine the strength of the fault. To accomplish a critical step of the installation, we must first find the wellhead we installed last May on the seafloor 7 kilometers (4.3 miles) below the ship, reenter it with the drill bit, and then drill down about 850 meters (2800 feet) through the plate boundary fault. The only way we are able to reenter the wellhead on the seafloor, which will allow us to install the observatory into the hole after drilling across the fault, is by … Read entire article »

Possible New Human Species Discovered
A new study describes human fossils from southern China that have a blending of modern and archaic features. The fossils date from between 11,500 and 14,500 years ago, a time when it was thought that Neanderthals and all other human species had died out except ours (Homo sapiens). Scientists aren't sure if the new fossils represent a previously undiscovered human species that lived alongside ours, a group of modern humans that migrated from Africa much earlier than other known migrations, or simply modern humans with unusual features. The report, co-authored by evolutionary biologist Darren Curnoe of the University of New South Wales, appeared online in the journal PLoS One on March 14. The fossilized individuals have been dubbed the Red Deer Cave people after a cave in Yunnan province where several … Read entire article »

Slumbering Greek Volcano Stirs
Over the past year, Greeks have become accustomed to the feeling of the Earth shifting beneath their feet. Now, it's not just the economy that's making them uneasy. Measurements from GPS instruments indicate the ground near the mouth of the island volcano Santorini has deformed by about 2.5 inches since January 2011. In that time, the magma chamber has been growing. The island is what remains of one of the largest volcanic eruptions in recorded history 3,600 years ago. It destroyed Minoan settlements and may have inspired the legend of the lost city of Atlantis. According to a post on LiveScience.com by reporter Stephanie Pappas: If a Santorini eruption did occur, [Andrew] Newman said, it would be nothing like the Minoan eruption of 1650 B.C. that birthed the myth of Atlantis.

Scientists Punch Into Ancient Antarctic Lake
Racing against the oncoming southern winter, Russian scientists announced today they have broken through more than 2 miles of ice to dip into a freshwater lake in eastern Antarctica that had been sealed off from the surface for millions of years. Pressurized water from the lake was allowed to rise up and fill the bore hole before freezing solid. Next year, the scientists plan to return to sample the lake water. They are especially keen to know if microbes are currently living in one of the most extreme environments on Earth. The lake is seen as an analog for a liquid lake or ocean under the icy crust of Jupiter's moon Europa. In a terrific piece on the much anticipated breakthrough for the New York Times today, David Herszenhorn and James Gorman write that environmentalists are concerned … Read entire article »

Study: Volcanoes Triggered Little Ice Age
Scientists have debated about what caused the Little Ice Age, an unusually cool period that lasted for several centuries and ended in the late 19th century. Some have suggested it was caused by shiny aerosol particles from volcanoes blocking out a portion of sunlight; others have suggested the sun itself was shining less brightly; or, perhaps a bit of both. Until now, the experts couldn't even agree on when it started. Estimates of onset have ranged from the 13th to the 16th century. A new study published today in the journal Geophysical Research Letters might settle both questions in one fell swoop. The researchers, led by Gifford Miller, a climate scientist at the University of Colorado, Boulder, say new evidence from northern ice sheets suggests the Little Ice Age was triggered by … Read entire article »

ANALYSIS AND EVALUATION (continued)
An evaluation of the landscape associated with the Hubbell trading post was conducted by examining the eleven characteristics of the cultural landscape (spatial organization, cluster arrangement, circulation, vegetation, land use, response to natural features, cultural traditions, structures, views and vistas, archeological resources, and small scale elements), identifying both historic and existing character-defining features, and determining the integrity of the resource using National Register criteria.
This study has examined approximately 160 acres. For the purpose of analysis and discussion the land was divided into seven definable historic land use areas. These areas include the agricultural fields and associated irrigation ditches; the residential compound; the barn lot and corral area (figure 83); the specialty garden areas (vegetable garden/flower garden); the school house/chapter house tract; Hubbell Hill outside of current park boundary; and the irrigation reservoir, main canal, and Ganado Lake and Dam all of which are outside of current park boundary (figure 84).
Each of the seven areas are discussed below with regard to their distinct historic character and specific assemblages of features that contribute to the area's significance. The discussion also covers the area's land use history as identified through research endeavors, existing conditions, and sensitivity to change. Character defining features are documented in Table 2.
Table 2. Character Defining Features
Spatial Organization and Patterns of Land Use
On a very large regional scale, one might look at the spatial arrangement of trading posts located within and immediately adjacent to the Navajo Reservation (figure 85). According to Adams, trading posts on the Navajo Reservation were often located approximately 20 miles apart to best serve the community and avoid undue competition between the posts. [132] One might also examine the Hubbell trading post with regard to its spatial arrangement in the context of other Hubbell family operations which included numerous trading posts, wholesale facilities, and other miscellaneous business ventures within and immediately surrounding the Navajo Reservation. A cursory examination of these relationships was made using readily available historical documentation as the majority of the region's trading posts and associated Hubbell family businesses are no longer existing. A thorough analysis of these relationships would be an excellent subject for an academic research project as would a thorough comparison of the Hubbell trading post with other posts located on the reservation. Again, a review of previous trading post studies was made in an effort to understand the overall context of the Hubbell trading post operation within the Navajo reservation but the primary focus of this study was limited to the Hubbell landscape. While some design characteristics found at Hubbell's Ganado post are highly characteristic of other posts on the reservation, the extensive agricultural operation is fairly unique. Some of the typical design characteristics are described in a later section of this report under Assessment of Resource Integrity.
Historically, the Hubbell landscape was comprised of approximately seven areas that reflect patterns of land use by the Hubbell family. These are the areas in which the Hubbells and their neighbors and associates lived, worked, and played. These areas included the agricultural fields of which there are five, and their associated irrigation features; the trading post and residential compound that includes the guest hogan, the manager's residence, the bread ovens, the chicken coop and the yard area that ties them all together; the barn lot, sheds, and corrals; the small specialty garden areas which include both the vegetable and flower garden plots; the school house/chapter house tract that now serves as the park's visitor center; the area known as Hubbell Hill is outside the park boundary; and the reservoir and associated irrigation system including the main canal and Ganado dam, all located outside of the park boundary.
The acreages of the six terraced agricultural fields are described by Peterson and included a total of about 110 acres. The easternmost field included 13 acres and was irrigated by a lateral feeding directly off of the main canal and following the western edge of the field that is also defined by a deep arroyo. This field is now occupied by the park's housing and maintenance areas. The second field is located east of the trading post and directly north of the Hubbell reservoir or holding pond and consisted of 16 acres. The field was irrigated using a lateral that fed off of the reservoir and followed the eastern edge of the field along the arroyo. The largest field area is located across the lane that leads south from the trading post and covers approximately 80 acres to the south and west of the trading post complex. This field was served by four laterals which according to Peterson were at some time or other served at least in part by the Hubbell's reservoir. [133] The first lateral runs along the eastern edge of the field and is connected to both the reservoir and the main canal. This lateral runs in a north-south direction towards the corrals and sheds and then veers west around the developed area and runs in a northwest direction towards the Pueblo Colorado Wash. The second lateral also runs in a north-south direction towards the Pueblo Colorado Wash and is fed primarily by a meandering ditch leading from the reservoir. Peterson notes that the 1931 Indian Irrigation Service map reveals that the third lateral which is now marked by a row of elm trees was served by the main canal as the Hubbell's constructed a supplementary ditch across a neighboring farm in an effort to maintain grade and bring water to the high ground along the farm's west side. [134] This lateral runs in a northwest-southeast direction. The fourth lateral was difficult to locate in the field as a result of years of wind blown sand and natural vegetation succession. The deteriorated condition of this lateral as well as barely discernible terraces reveal that over the years the family likely abandoned their attempts to keep water on the high fields of the southwest corner. [135]
Another small field area has been identified immediately west of the stone bunkhouse. This area does not appear to have been terraced but does include a small lateral irrigation ditch that runs along its eastern edge as well as a few small stone and wood headgates. The area was also enclosed by post and wire fencing along all sides. Oral histories have identified this field and noted that it was used historically by the family for the cultivation of corn. This field encompasses approximately a quarter acre of land.
Noticeable changes have occurred within two of the six terraced fields. The easternmost field has been converted into the park's housing and maintenance areas and has subsequently experienced the loss of its terraces and irrigation features. The field to the immediate west of the housing area has also been modified with regard to its overall acreage. Although historically cultivated by the Hubbells, the southern portion of this field is not within the homestead boundaries and is therefore not included within the park's boundaries. This southern area comprises approximately 5 acres. However, it should be noted that the area continues to be utilized for cultivation and provides visual continuity as a single large field from the entrance road south to the Hubbell Reservoir.
In 1964 there was an addition of a sewage lagoon covering approximately 1.5 acres in the north end of the big field located to the west of the corrals thereby reducing that field by a few acres. With this exception, the major changes to the westernmost fields consist of the disrepair of the historic terraces and their lack of use for cultivation activities. In general these fields have retained their approximate acreages and overall organization.
With the exception of the loss of a few structures and features the trading post and residential compound area has retained its overall spatial organization and layout as has the barn lot and corral area. One of the three specialty garden areas has retained its historical configuration while the other two have been modified over the past several years. The small vegetable garden plot located immediately south of the stone bunkhouse is intact although it is rapidly succeeding with invasive vegetation while the flower garden that historically covered the majority of the residential yard area is no longer evident with the exception of a large mass of lilacs and the border beds that follow the inside perimeter of the stone wall. The vegetable garden area located immediately south of the guest hogan has been modified with regard to its acreage and has recently lost the historical patterning of its terraces.
The spatial organization associated with the areas located outside of the park's boundaries has remained fairly constant through time. The Ganado dam was raised from 22 to 25' in height so there has been some increase in the overall size of the reservoir it will now hold 2800 acre feet of water. No changes have occurred with regard to the layout or configuration of the main canal system, the Hubbell Reservoir, or Hubbell Hill.
There has been no substantial loss in any of the spatial elements that comprise the Hubbell Trading Post landscape although the land use activities within some of the areas have changed over time. The entire homestead acreage is in the ownership of the National Park Service and the other contiguous areas remain in the ownership of the Navajo Nation. Despite the changes that have occurred with regard to land management and use, the spatial organization of the property has retained its integrity of location, design, setting, feeling and association.

The Venezuelan president had been receiving treatment for cancer since December.
CARACAS, Venezuela — Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez made a surprise return from Cuba on Monday more than two months after cancer surgery that threatens to end his 14-year rule of the South American OPEC member, he and ministers said.
The 58-year-old socialist leader underwent a six-hour operation in Cuba on Dec. 11. He had not been seen or heard in public since then until photos were published of him on Friday.
"We have arrived back in the Venezuelan fatherland. Thanks, my God! Thanks, my beloved people! Here we will continue the treatment," Chavez said via Twitter. Aides confirmed the news.
RELATED: Here's Hugo: Venezuela shows 1st photo of Chavez in 2 months
RELATED: Venezuela's VP: Chavez undergoing 'delicate' cancer treatment
There had been speculation Chavez was unwell enough to travel despite wanting to return to his homeland for continued treatment for the disease he was first diagnosed with in mid-2011.
But Vice President Nicolas Maduro said Chavez flew in at about 2.30 a.m. local time from Havana and was in a military hospital in Caracas.
Chavez's overnight return will thrill supporters in the nation of 29 million people, where his common touch and welfare policies have made him an idol to the poor.
Fireworks could be heard going off in some Caracas neighborhoods as the news spread and celebrations began among Chavistas.

"I remain attached to Christ and trusting in my nurses and doctors. Onwards to victory forever! We will live and we will conquer!" Chavez also tweeted, adding his thanks to Cuban leaders Raul and Fidel Castro for his treatment there.
Ministers were jubilant, one singing "He's back, he's back!" live on state TV. "We're so happy," Maduro said.
Given that ministers said he wanted to return when he was well enough to travel, Chavez's arrival implied some improvement in his condition, at least enough to handle a flight of several hours.
But aides have emphasized in recent days that his state remains "complex." Chavez's operation in Havana was his fourth for the cancer first detected in his pelvic area in June 2011.
On Friday, the government published photos showing him lying in hospital. Officials said he was breathing through a tracheal tube and struggling to speak.
Chavez's tweets on Monday were his first since traveling to Cuba for the surgery in December.
His pre-dawn return was a typical surprise move for the former soldier whose political rule has combined constant theatrics with thundering anti-U.S. rhetoric, tough treatment of opponents and lavish spending of oil revenues on the poor.
