The primary concern at this moment appears to be the impact that the volcanic ash will have on air travel throughout the region.]]></description>

The most powerful quake to hit Japan in over 100 years, the massive shock has triggered tidal waves that are racing across the Pacific and that have already wrecked devastation onto many areas of Japan.

		<description><![CDATA[Several NASA scientists have openly refuted claims made last week by fellow NASA scientist Richard B. Hoover of discovering extraterrestrial fossils within a sample of French stony meteorites. In an apparently condescending and dismissive remark, NASA&#8217;s Carl Pitcher is quoted as saying, &#8220;He [Hoover] clearly does some very interesting microscopy.

Like earlier, similar claims from NASA involving Martian life, this evidence originates within rare types of meteorites. The evidential image below is taken from a report by NASA&#8217;s Richard B.

Mercurial and imperial but also entertaining and sometimes compassionate, Hawass has been the face of Egyptian archaeology for many years. Hawass is featured on the History Channel&#8217;s controversial reality series Chasing Mummies. Critics claim the show is scripted and Hawass <a href='http://vanshardware.com/2011/03/egyptian-arhaeologist-zahi-hawass-resigns/'>[...]</a>]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Our eight-year-old daughter, Hattie, has been conducting a science experiment where she has been monitoring the direction of earth&#8217;s magnetic north pole. The expected outcome of the experiment was that the direction would not change over the course of several weeks.

		<description><![CDATA[Over the last decade, my wife, Kathy, and I have become increasingly cautious about exposing our children to the full government recommended battery of vaccinations. We understand and appreciate that inoculations can save lives, but we also recognize that each jab presents risks, so unnecessary vaccinations are to be avoided.
