...operated by boards of directors. The co-ops would operate by the rules of the insurance exchange and be capitalized by initial federal seed money. Conrad has compared the model to an HMO-like health cooperative operating in Washington State, but also, oddly enough, to agricultural cooperatives like Ocean Spray and Land O'Lakes. Republicans have not outright rejected the co-op idea. And over the weekend, Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said of the co-op plan, "Having these ideas on the table is exactly where we need to be right now." The question is, Will...
...same channels built originally to empty water into the Atlantic," explains Medialdea. "Just reversed the flow." Today, that neat little feat of engineering allows the tides to sweep in estuary water, which a pumping station distributes throughout the farm's 45 ponds. Because it comes directly from the ocean, that water teems with microalgae and tiny translucent shrimp, which provide natural food for the fish that Veta la Palma raises...
...Brazil What Happened to Flight 447? On June 2, search teams combing the Atlantic Ocean discovered bobbing wreckage from the Air France jet that vanished between Brazil and West Africa two days earlier. But the mystery of why the Airbus A330 went down may endure--a lead investigator suggested that the doomed aircraft's voice and data recorders may never be plucked from the mountainous ocean floor, more than a mile below. Meteorologists suspect the wide-body jet encountered a band of towering thunderstorms packing 100-m.p.h. (160 km/h) winds as it flew from Rio de Janeiro to Paris...
...care taken with the creatures and their environment. The dinos have plausibility and personality, and there are enough rocks, jutting jaws and monster guts thrown at the screen to make a 3-D version of the movie appealing. Production designer Bo Welch's desert vistas - with, say, an ocean liner stuck in the sand at a 60-degree angle - bring Dalíesque visions to a routine action comedy...
...dozen technical messages" sent by AF447 showed that "several electrical systems had broken down" immediately prior to the crash. A chronology of these messages acquired by the São Paolo daily Jornal da Tarde show that moments before the plane is believed to have plunged into the ocean, its autopilot became disengaged and the plane sustained damage to its stabilizing controls and flight systems, as well as a failure of the systems that were monitoring the aircraft's speed, altitude and direction: the ADIRU (Air Data Inertial Reference Units) and the ISIS (Integrated Standby Instruments System). These...
