Airborne Bacteria Make It Rain, Researchers Find
The sky is not an ethereal, sterile realm. It's teeming with bacteria, and scientists say that the microbes play a powerful role in producing rain and snow. While the idea that bacteria could prompt precipitation was previously known, a paper published this week in Science shows that they're more important than anyone expected. Researchers led by Louisiana State University microbiologist Brent Christner analyzed snow samples from around the world, categorizing the content of their "nucleators" -- tiny particles that help water vapor coalesce and freeze. All snow and most rain begins as ice. Though water is widely thought to have a freezing point of zero degrees Celsius, it's not so simple in the clouds, where pristine vapors only bind to form ice crystals at exceedingly cold temperatures.

STA RICA CLOSES WORLD-RENOWNED PARK TO STUDY ANIMAL DIE-OFF

Drake Bay, Costa Rica Back to home page Printable version of this story DRAKE BAY, Costa Rica, Dec. 14, 2005 -- Officials closed Costa Rica's Corcovado National Park, a prime tourist attraction, because many kinds of animals are dying in alarming numbers there amid one of the most sensitive ecosystems in the world. The dead include monkeys, toucans and sloths. The last time monkeys started dying on such a massive scale in the park was in the 1950s, said Edwardo Carrillo, the head researcher in the investigative team that is looking into the deaths. The culprit then was yellow fever, he said. However, yellow fever does not affect birds. Carillo said that perhaps as many as half the monkey population at the park (www.costaricamap.com/ing/biopcorcovado.html) has died.
Obama, McCain Win Wisconsin Primaries
Barack Obama racked up another victory Tuesday night, defeating Hillary Clinton by a wide margin in the Wisconsin Democratic primary while also proving he can win big in a primary-style election in a state with a small minority population. Meanwhile, John McCain won both the Wisconsin and Washington Republican presidential primaries, besting longshot rival Mike Huckabee. Democrats were awaiting results in the Hawaii Democratic caucuses. Washington also held a Democratic primary, but it was a beauty contest only, awarding no delegates. Speaking in Texas, where he had already traveled to get a jump on the March 4 race there, Obama briefly mentioned the Wisconsin victory in a 45-minute speech that was raucously received by the estimated 20,000-strong crowd. "We just heard we won tonight in Wisconsin," Obama said to catcalls and applause.

Fans flock to Nails site for freebie downloads
Rock band Nine Inch Nails are struggling to keep their website online after releasing their latest album as a partly free download. Frontman Trent Reznor ditched the band's record label last year after publicly berating it over the price charged for its albums. Now a "free agent", Nine Inch Nails are offering their latest four-volume album, Ghosts I-IV, to fans directly via their website and through BitTorrent file sharing networks. The instrumental album has been put out under a Creative Commons licence, so people are free to share and remix it for non-commercial uses. In October last year, British rock group Radiohead ditched their record label, EMI, in order to release their new album, In Rainbows, as a download on their website.

Sue says a researcher there gave her information on Morgellons Web sites. She went to the MRF Web site and found that she was experiencing every symptom listed - fibers, crawling sensations on the skin, brain fog, chronic fatigue, joint pain and more. Now, she believed, she had a diagnosis. What she needed was a cure. The doctors may have dismissed her symptoms, but, unlike with so many others who say they have Morgellons, Sue's family believed her. When her Dino-Lite microscope broke from overuse, Tom bought her a new, more powerful Accu-Scope for Christmas. He took her to every doctor's appointment, even counseling her to slow down when she spoke because, when she tried to get everything out in the five minutes a doctor allotted her, she sounded nuts. "Honestly, I didn't know what to think about the fibers," Tom says.

Mothers Day charity gifts
The Archbishop of Canterbury, Dr Rowan Williams, has opened a 13th century church in Wales which was dismantled and rebuilt stone-by-stone over 20 years 50 miles away at the National History Museum, St Fagansa, in Cardiff. St Teilo's Church from Pontarddulais near Swansea has been restored to recreate its appearance in 1520. Copies of a rare series of 16th century paintings, which were uncovered as it was being dismantled, adorn the walls. Dr Williams is from Wales, and he served as Bishop of Monmouth and as Archbishop of the Church in Wales, a disestablished art of the worldwide Anglican Communion, before becoming Archbishop of Canterbury. He was accompanied at the ceremony by First Minister for Wales Mr Rhodri Morgan and other officials Morgan believes that his great-grandparents married at the church, which was used regularly until 1850 and then occasionally during the summer until 1985, reports the BBC.
