...team led by microbiologist Jill Mikucki of Dartmouth College, set out to look for any such hangers-on at a particularly unforgiving place: Blood Falls, on the East Antarctic Ice Sheet. Blood Falls got its unlovely name due to red staining that comes from a snout on the Taylor Glacier - the result of heavy deposits of iron in its water. In ages past, a fjord ran through the area and brought with it swarms of marine life, but more than 1.5 million years ago the ice began to rise, and a pool of seawater became trapped - and then capped - creating...
...prosecutor, Ujwal Nikam, objected strenuously, arguing that according to the court's record - the confession submitted to a Mumbai magistrate, the jail's entry logs and the charge sheet against him - Qasab had given his date of birth as Sept. 13, 1987.

A Goldman spokesman said, "By putting the capital on our balance sheet to work we are helping the market to function, which benefits the market and the economy."

...infectious hooks of Buzzcocks singles. Their first album, “More Parts Per Million,” anticipated the more recent insurgence of lo-fi punk (No Age, Times New Viking, Wavves) with surprising acuity, trading in primitive pop riffs and paper-thin anthems, all wrapped in a sheet of feedback. The difference between the Thermals and those bands is that feedback was less a symbiote than the sound of growing pains. By the band’s second album, “Fucking A,” the outfit was tighter, the choruses were clearer, and most importantly...
