Each of the album’s ten songs is the logical continuation of the band’s brand of blissful, heady pop. Sam Prekop’s vocals still melt into the guitar lines, and there is still that straight and clean guitar strumming that provides rich harmonic landscapes for downright beautiful melodies...
...concerns about the overall stability of Antarctica's ice are on the rise. And with good reason. Locked away in that ice, after all, is 75% of the earth's freshwater, enough to raise global sea levels 200 ft. And while no one expects all that ice to melt anytime soon, a significant portion--enough to swamp low-lying coastal zones and menace major cities from Bombay to Boston--conceivably might...
...Valleys are not just a biological laboratory; they are a climate laboratory as well. Between 1986 and 2000, scientists involved in a long-running ecological study documented a succession of cold summers that crimped the short, seasonal ice melt to such an extent that not only did lake levels fall but so did the photosynthetic activity that underpins their biology. Then, last summer, from December 2001 through January 2002, temperatures shot up and lake levels soared. For a brief time, conditions became so balmy that streams of meltwater cascaded off glaciers and ice falls, and the Onyx River flowed with...

Last year 63,100 obese patients--including celebrities like Today show weatherman Al Roker--underwent surgery to have their stomach...
...which comprises two converted town houses built right into the fort walls, with rooms decorated in vivid shades of crimson, lime and orange. Its three terraces command what might be Jaisalmer's finest sunset views, when the ancient bastions take on the color of pure honey and seem to melt into the desert backdrop. The staff will update you on the restoration efforts and you won't find anything as wasteful as a bathtub within their walls...
