Scientists have discovered gigantic structures 25,000 light-years tall ballooning above and below the Milky Way. Within each curved lobe, extremely energetic electrons of unknown origin interact with lower-energy light to generate the gamma rays that define these bubbles. The galactic-scale structures could be remnants from a burst of star formation or leftovers from an eruption by the supermassive black hole at our galaxy's center. Scientists aren't sure yet, but the more they learn about this amazing structure, which may be only a few million years old, the better we'll understand the Milky Way. While not immediately visible to NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope, these unexpected features were brought into sharp relief by a group of scientists who processed data from Fermi's all-sky map.

The body was found about 30 feet from the gate of Belmont Harbor, in an area police divers had been searching for Philip Patnaude, 28. The medical examiner's office identified the body as that of Patnaude this afternoon, a spokesman said about 3 p.m. After the body was positively indentified, investigators told family members that it appeared Patnaude died trying to get out of the water, said Patnaude’s aunt, Barbara Moore. “It was a tragic accident—it looked like he slipped in,” Moore said. Patnaude apparently took off his jacket--which was found Sunday in Belmont Harbor—as he struggled to get out of the water, Moore said. “He died trying to save himself,” Moore said. “They felt pretty sure based on what he was wearing,’’ Moore said. Moore complimented the police divers for their efforts. Arrangements were pending.
guohuade comments on I found this in my Chinese textbook... Interesting discussion about the chinese language and chinese characters by fluent non-native speaker and others : DepthHub Sawfishes sure can wield a saw (w/ video) Sawfishes wouldn't be sawfishes if they didn't come equipped with long toothy snouts—their saws. Now, researchers reporting in the March 6 issue of Current Biology, have figured out what they use those saws for, and it turns out the answer is quite impressive. It might even help save the critically endangered and incredibly elusive sawfishes. "I was surprised to see how skilled sawfish are with their saw," said Barbara Wueringer of the University of Queensland. Unlike sawfishes in the wild, the animals she and her team caught on hidden cameras were fed on dead fish, "but their strikes were sometimes strong enough to split those fish in half." Sawfishes don't use their saws just to kill and manipulate prey, but also to sense their next mark in the first place. Wueringer's team earlier found that the saws of freshwater sawfishes are covered in thousands of electroreceptors. In the new study, the researchers observed recently captured sawfishes in action.

The EyeTap is a hard technology to categorize under the three main headers for wearable computing (constancy, augmentation, mediation) for while it is in theory a constancy technology in nature it also has the ability to augment and mediate the reality the user perceives.
