text: Rare whale skeleton discovered on Antarctica ocean floor Money Money Science Faine Greenwood on Dec 31, 1969 @ 7:33 PM A pod of whales are seen off St Heliers Bay near Auckland, on New Zealand's north island. Scientists have located a rare Minke whale skeleton on the floor of the ocean in Antarctica, not far from the South Sandwich Islands. Whale skeletons are a valued scientific find as they are rare and exceedingly difficult to pinpoint on the chilly ocean floor, and usually are only found when underwater explorers manage to navigate right over one with a submersible vehicle. Read more from GlobalPost: Rare melon-headed whale dies on Trinidad beach The newly-discovered Minke whale skeleton has proved host to numerous species of scavengers feasting on the bones and body, including zombie worms, bacteria, and other invertebrates little known to science, according to a statement put out by the University of Southhampton in England. "We were just finishing a dive with the UK's remotely operated vehicle, Isis, when we glimpsed a row of pale-colored blocks in the distance, which turned out to be whale vertebrae on the seabed," said study researcher Dr. Jon Copley in the statement. The findings have been published online in Deep-Sea Research II: Topical Studies in Oceanography, which describes the surprising deep-sea discovery in detail. "One of the great remaining mysteries of deep ocean biology is how these tiny invertebrates can spread between the isolated habitats these whale carcasses provide on the seafloor," study co-author Dr. Adrian Glover said. "Our discovery fills important gaps in this knowledge."

Janis Mara | March 31, 2004 | Comments
Prospecting for gold in the promising local search market will be demanding, and partnerships may be one solution, according to participants in a local search conference.
Santa Clara, Calif. - While local search presents a rich opportunity, cashing in on that promise is going to be a challenge, according to industry players. They suggested teamwork between online yellow pages providers and search engines may be one solution.
The discussion came at a two-day conference on local search put on by the Kelsey Group in Silicon Valley this week, where more than 400 people turned up to hear about and discuss the issues. Local search is believed to be one of the next growth areas in search engine marketing, with the Kelsey Group expecting local paid search advertising in the U.S. to reach $2.5 billion by 2008.
"It is not going to be an easy path. Local search means changing peoples' behavior, and that's tough," said Safa Rashtchy, a Piper Jaffray analyst, speaking at the "Drilling Down on Local Search" conference.
"The studies presented here show there is still hesitancy out there. Still, I'm convinced it's a big opportunity," Rashtchy said.
The research Rashtchy referred to was a Kelsey Group study presented at the conference that focused on 460 local small business advertisers surveyed in February and March 2004. Of the 460, a total of 185 used, or were interested in using, pay-per-click local search. The remaining 275 were undecided or not interested.
Of the "not interested" group, 51 percent said such advertising "would not work for my business." Thirty-four percent of those in this category said paid search is for larger businesses. Only 6 percent believed pay-per-click is extremely cost effective.
Like Rashtchy, consultant Ken Clark sees great potential in local search. To Clark, sales is the key component that will make the difference in getting advertisers to sign on the dotted line.
"Who is going to go visit those businesses and work with them? The logical answer is the yellow pages guy. Somebody has to make the sales call," Clark said
And therein lies the dilemma. Major search engines such as Google, Overture, Yahoo and MSN have a pricing model, pay-per-click, as well as search traffic, but no local sales forces in place to sell small to medium-sized businesses.
It would seem that online yellow pages providers , with their existing sales forces, would be in a prime position. But "people don't think of SuperPages in terms of searching for services or goods," admitted Verizon's Dana Benton Russell, referring to the company's online yellow pages site. Also, though Verizon has teamed with FindWhat.com to offer ads using the popular pay-per-click model, many yellow pages companies do not yet offer that option.
For these reasons, partnerships between the two groups were a lively subject of discussion at the conference. Many of the major search engines already use yellow pages data for listings. Google's beta version of local search,which launched in mid-March, does so, for example, as does Yahoo's SmartView.
"As we move forward to penetrate the small business market we're looking at partnering with yellow pages, resellers, those kinds of groups," said David Means of Overture. And during a presentation on direct sales, Warren Kay, Overture's director of sales for local search, said, "A media sales partner is a good idea."

Joan Lehach, M.D., who specializes in allergy, asthma, and clinical immunology at Montefiore Medical Center in New York, reveals what triggers allergy symptoms in the winter and shares 10 tips to help reduce winter allergy symptoms.
As frigid temperatures and unusually snowy conditions over much of the nation continue to keep many Americans indoors, a veteran allergy expert reminds us that staying inside may keep us warm, but it also us gives us prolonged exposure to four powerful indoor allergens capable of triggering a variety of cold and flu-like symptoms.
"If you experience more than nine days of continuing congestion, coughing, sneezing, watery eyes and nasal drip, chances are good that you are reacting to the presence of either dust mites, cockroaches, animal dander, or mold somewhere in your home, office or school," said Joan Lehach, M.D., integrative medicine physician specializing in allergy, asthma, and clinical immunology at Montefiore Medical Center in New York. "Many times, and especially in the inner city where populations are dense, all four of these allergens are present and must be addressed."
Dr. Lehach's tips for controlling your indoor allergy symptoms:
1. Mold inspection: The first step for controlling your allergy symptoms is to do a little inspection for mold inside the house. The most common places to find it are on shower curtains, wallpaper, carpets and the sink. Mold also grows in the drain, which can be cleaned with bleach and detergent.
2. Cockroach hunt: Studies have found cockroach allergens to be present in at least half of inner city homes and in nearly three-quarters of inner city schools. Cockroaches do not have to be alive to trigger respiratory problems. Dust containing molecules of crushed carcasses can still cause problems for humans. Professionals can be consulted to discover and clean out hidden colonies. Nesting areas and pathways where cockroaches may have been traveling should be thoroughly cleaned.
3. Dry up dust mites: Keep your indoor humidity at 50 percent or lower, as higher humidity will breed dust mites. A humidity gauge can be purchased for approximately $5.
4. Filter out animal dander: If you have a pet allergy, you are probably going to need to be on allergy medications until you can consult with an allergist and see if you want to be desensitized or not. Meanwhile, a small HEPA air purifier placed in each room will keep airborne dander from spreading throughout the house. Mice or other fur-bearing pests living under the house or in the attic must be searched for and removed.
5. Get symptom relief: A mixture of sinus-friendly Chinese herbs, like Rootology, can temporarily halt most allergy symptoms in less than 20 minutes. Rootology can also be used to control winter cold and flu symptoms.
6. Start an immune-building diet: Eliminate foods that are weakening your immune system, like processed and packaged foods, and start eating immune boosting, allergy fighting foods, like blackberries and blueberries. Also important are multivitamin supplements and digestive enzymes to help you access more of the nutrients in the food you consume.
7. Get sufficient sleep: Our immune system is very "sleep-driven," and allergies are precipitated by weakened immunity.
8. Stay hydrated: When you become dehydrated you get dry nasal mucosa and can develop microscopic cracks in the nasal lining, making it easier for allergens to enter your bloodstream.
9. Use the "hot" setting: Wash your bedding in hot water (at least 130 degrees) to properly neutralize allergens.
10. Wash your face and hands: Not only to maintain popularity with family, friends, and co-workers, but if there is dander, mold, or dust on your face or hands, chances are good that you will end up inhaling it.
Samples for SymptomsDr. Lehach has arranged with the manufacturer to send free samples of Rootology to any winter allergy sufferer who Tweets a photo of themselves coughing, sneezing, wiping their watery eyes, or blowing their runny nose, while supplies last. Use the hash tag phrase: #BreatheFree with #Rootology.
An integrative medicine physician specializing in allergy, asthma, and clinical immunology at Montefiore Medical Center in New York, Joan Lehach, M.D., has 27 years of experience treating patients in the New York City area and has the largest solo asthma and allergy practice in the Bronx. Named by US News and World Report as one of the top physicians in New York, she lectures extensively on allergy and asthma and has helped design asthma protocols for a number of health plans.

Made in Las Vegas
Travel: Sin City recaptures its mob past with a tour, interactive experience and — coming soon — a wiseguy museum
LAS VEGAS Bada bing, bada boom! In tough-talking wiseguy persona, Vegas Mob Tour guide "Bobby A" has been wowing passengers with chilling Sin City history – mostly about bone-breaker Tony "The Ant" Spilotro and various goons getting "clipped," "whacked" or having their heads squeezed in a vise — when the tour van stops in a parking lot next to a Tony Roma's restaurant.
"This is where they tried to blow Frank up in the car," Bobby intoned, pointing to the parking space where Frank "Lefty" Rosenthal turned the key of his Cadillac Eldorado and exploded a bomb that burnt his auto to a crisp.
Rosenthal, who ran four mob-owned casinos in the 1970s and early '80s, survived the blast and later was delighted when Martin Scorsese cast Robert DeNiro to portray him in "Casino" and re-created the fiery intended-death scene at the movie's start.
Just like fabled old times, Vegas is mobbed up. Look, those 24-hour buffet passes and Donny and Marie can get bor-ring. So this glittery gambling mecca is capitalizing on its bloody heyday with "family" attractions spotlighting how organized crime built and once controlled the neon oasis.
Besides the Mob Tour, two new Mafia museums are going in for the kill.
What? You got a problem wit dat?
During the 2½-hour, info-crammed Mob Tour, Bobby spilled trade secrets (gas emitted from decomposing bodies in a trunk makes a high-pitched violin sound) as the 25-seat white van cruised past joints where thugs sent out by the Chicago Outfit "ate, worked and got arrested." For added flair, an onboard TV flashed vintage news videos and graphic photos, like pictorial proof that syndicate honcho Bugsy Siegel got a bullet in the eye.
Practice your "Sopranos" imitation for the next sleep-with-the-fishes adventure. In the theme-parklike Las Vegas Mob Experience inside the Tropicana resort, visitors have to role-play with live in-your-face "gangsters" who turn giddy guests into flunky bagmen, make them decide whether to maim or murder a card cheat, and unnervingly address them by name in dark warehouses and back alleys. (The personal data is conveyed through radio-frequency IDs in visitor badges.)
Seriously, it was impossible not to laugh while handing an envelope stuffed with cash to underboss Big Leo, dapper in expensive suit and waiting at a cafe table with his extinguished cigar and a bottle of Chianti. ("Listen Norma, you don't know nuttin', right?!" he growled.)
Another splashy shrine — the $42 million Museum of Organized Crime and Law Enforcement, also known as the Mob Museum and backed by Vegas mayor and onetime mob attorney Oscar Goodman – is set to debut downtown in December. With much fanfare, Goodman, who calls his pet project "the most anticipated opening of a museum" in the world, recently unveiled the latest artifact: the barber chair "Lord High Executioner" and crime boss Albert Anastasia was relaxing in when he was rubbed out in 1957 in a New York hotel.
One well-connected figure isn't surprised Vegas has finally cashed in on its casino-skimming and violent past. "People were always interested in us. We're a dying breed. We're like dinosaurs walking around," said mobster-turned-FBI informant Frank Cullotta, in an interview over the phone from an "undisclosed" locale.

Dictionary » A » Agar
A gelatinous material derived from algae, specifically used as a culture medium of bacteria and other cells for diagnostic or laboratory experiments purposes.
Agar came from the cell walls of red algae, especially those in family Gelidiaceae and family Gracilariaceae. The gelatinous material is extracted by boiling and filtration. The agar is made up of agarose and agaropectin.

Need a source for cheap water tight connectors
I ma using thin walled cement tubs for my plant trays, and I need to be able to connect my feed lines to them. Has anyone found a good source for water tight 1/2" irrigation tubing, or anything else that might work as well?
I like to use "through holes" (also called "bulk head fittings"). The ones I mostly use in-particular, I find in the electrical department at Home Depot, and are about $2. Located with all the connectors and fittings for electrical conduit. That particular one fits a 5/8 inch tubing, but it's not hard to step down a 5/8 line to a 1/2 inch line. But through holes come in lots of sizes, and are used in many different industry's, and for many different reasons. They usually come either with threaded or barbed ends.
Here are some I quickly found online to give you an idea what I'm talking about.
PVC and ABS Bulkhead Fittings
An Improvised PVC Bulkhead Fitting for Liquid Storage Tanks
Bulkhead Fittings Wholesale
I use one PVC Male Adapter Thread x Socket and a Threaded PVC Coupling PVC and just go from there (unless I need something special. They seem to have them at most hardware stores and in most sizes.
That looks like what I've tried in the past, except in white. Although I would really need to try and screw the male and female ends together to tell if it's tapered. The tapered ones don't go on all the way and leave a gap you need a spacer for. Unless the material it's going through is about 1/3 to 1/2 inch thick. Their designed that way, to get tighter the more you screw them on (in order to make it water tight). But they leave a gap when going through relativity thin plastic like a 5 gal bucket, and I always have a hard time finding the right spacer that's just the right thickness, as well as wide (to fit the shaft part without being loose). If it's too thick they wont screw together tightly, and too thin they will still leave a gap or be loose.
Thanks grizzman,
Those look different than ones I have seen with the PVC connectors at our store. But I can copy the pictures and the Lowe's item and model numbers into a text document. Then I can take it with me next time I go out by Lowe's. Given I have the item and model numbers, I know if they don't have then in-store, they can have them shipped from another Lowe's store at no charge. Thanks again, that's a big help...
Thanks to all. I got the water tight parts at Home Depot in the electrical department. What I liked about them was that they had the with a right angel, and the barbed end fit the 1/2" irrigation tubing I bought 50 feet of, for less than $10. They also had a T so I could connect the two trays together and feed them through one 1/2 pipe. I could cut the inside near flush. I needed that because I plan for gravity to back the nutrient back into the holding tank in the ground when the pump shuts off. I put a second connector for over-flow on each tray, they will hit a T and feed to one 1/2' pipe back to the holding tank. The good thing was that I bought two O-rings that will go over the threaded end on the inside of the tray, then I will thread on a 1/2 pvc connector that will let me set my overflow by the length of pipe that I pressure fit into the glue end. I will upload a picture when I get it all together. I have a greenlee metal punch that makes a perfect 1/2" hole, and those threaded parts make a water tight connection just by how they screw into the plastic, so the O'ring and nut are a added bonus.
