A detail of an image captured by NASA's Curiosity Mars rover shows exposed layers of mudstone and sandstone in contact with one another.

December 18, 2015 Potential answers for the unexpectedly high levels of silica all involve water. The space agency also says it found "a mineral named tridymite, rare on Earth and never seen before on Mars."
NASA's Curiosity rover took dozens of images that together made a selfie in January on the Mount Sharp area of Mars.

September 29, 2015 One reason is that it would take the Curiosity rover about a year to get there, even with no obstacles and no traffic. But the other reason might surprise you.
NASA says "cross-bedding" in the layers of this Martian rock is proof that water moved on Mars, leaving waves or ripples of loose sediment. The image is from a site at Mount Sharp that NASA calls "Whale Rock."

December 8, 2014 The water and sediment flow might have been massive enough to build a mountain, NASA researchers say.
The rover has drilled a hole in sandstone. It will soon collect samples to learn more about how the rocks formed.

April 30, 2014 Over the next few days, Curiosity will drill deeper and collect samples, telling scientists about the fluids that once flowed across the area, a point of convergence for different types of terrain.
This view combines several frames taken by the Mast Camera (Mastcam) on NASA's Mars rover Curiosity, looking into a valley to the west from the eastern side of a dune at the eastern end of the valley.

February 4, 2014 Other rovers have gotten stuck in similar terrains, so this is a delicate operation for the Mini-Cooper-sized vehicle.
The Mars rover Curiosity took this self-portrait in February.

December 9, 2013 "It's the kind of water where if you were really dying, you could drink it, but you probably wouldn't bottle it for resale," says the chief scientist of the Curiosity mission. Scientists say the lake could have sustained life billions of years ago.
A photo composed of nearly 900 images taken by the rover Curiosity shows a section of Gale Crater near the equator of Mars. The rovers are continuing to work through the U.S. government shutdown.

October 14, 2013 The budget negotiations in Washington are not front-page news on Mars. There, NASA's rovers continue to operate, taking photographs and collecting data as they prepare for the coming Martian winter.

September 19, 2013 In a paper released in the journal Science, researchers explain that if the Red Planet is harboring life, the instruments on the rover have been unable to sniff it out.

I would like to say that in 2014 I was too busy enjoying my crazy, awesome life to write blog posts or update my Twitter account, but that would be a lie. Last year was just a bad year, plain and simple. If it was a slightly less depressing version of Rent, the year would have been measured in loss, prayers, funerals, disappointments, tears, heartbreaks, mistakes, with no catchy tunes. It left me feeling completely uninspired and I found myself just waiting for it to pass, praying for a break in the new year.
Don't get me wrong, there were some ups–or at least things that seemed like ups for a moment in time–but as a whole, for lack of a better term, it sucked. In the midst of it all, I cut myself off from a constant pleasure in my life, something that could have made me joyful through the misery–writing. If my goal is to process my experience of being a twenty-something in hopes that others can relate, then I failed. I failed because I know that this journey isn't just about rejoicing in the good times, rather appreciating and learning from the bad and ugly as well. I want to be honest and vulnerable, and escape into my writing instead of from it.
To begin making up for lost time, let's briefly recap five ups and downs of 2014 in no particular order.
Adventures in Online Dating
It's like wanting something really badly, turning to your last resort and then having to hear yourself say, "I told you so." Despite the weird interactions I had both online and in person, I don't regret giving online dating a chance. Between the awkward messages, giving someone what I believe to be their first kiss, and being borderline stalked, at least I can say I tried it and it's not for me. Thanks, Match.com, for six months worth of unforgettable stories to share with family and friends.
Loss of a few good men
Among the many losses last year was the death of my grandfather, Pop. He was a stand up, no bullshit, life loving, faith filled, adventure seeking, wise ass, all around wonderful guy. I think grandparents are one of the greatest gifts and I cherish every second I spent with him. It's true what they say, they don't make 'em like they used to. If I ever find a guy half as good as him I'll consider myself a lucky girl.
The Big Move
Yup, I did it. After 3+ years of being home with my parents after college, I finally made the plunge and moved out. Between free-loading, dinners and always coming home to people who genuinely cared about my day regardless of whether I wanted to talk about it or not, I know I had it good. But it was time to spread my wings, and fly I did. A whole 20 minutes away! I'm now living with two of my childhood friends in a Threes-Company-style house. So far I love every second of it, except for the bills. The honeymoon phase is in full swing.
A Night to Remember (or Regret)
Just a few weeks after my gynecologist inappropriately lectured me on how I should commit to becoming a born-again virgin, I did the thing I swore I'd never do–I went home with a guy I just met. It was straight out of a movie. Same table at the wedding reception, alcohol flowing, never heard from him again. To hear the full, laugh-out-loud, you-can't-make-this-stuff-up version you'll have to buy my memoir one day. For better or worse, it changed me.
The 9-5
When you feel completely out of control in every aspect of your life, you know you need a change and you're not sure what, get a new job. I loved a lot of parts about my old job but there came a time when I just felt a readiness like I've never felt before. It was the first time in my professional life where I made the choice to move on and it was a difficult choice to make. Moving from a comfortable, well-adjusted position where I got to travel the world, to a 9-5 desk job is something I never saw myself doing. It was a rocky transition at first, but here I am three months later and I feel like I made the right decision.
More on these later, but now we're about caught up.

Microsoft has always been an ardent proponent of digital distribution and now it's this long held belief that is reflected in its recent decision to
pull Microsoft Money off store shelves
. It has decided that the financial software only be sold as an online download from here on. But the company isn't in any hurry to renounce boxed software and realizes that an absolute transition to digital distribution will take some time.
A MS employee, Chris Jolley, told Cnet about MS Money sales trends that instigated the current move. About half of the total sales of the financial software in the last one year have been generated through the internet, according to Jolley.

WVU set to name new offensive line coach
Earlier today Coachscoop.com reported that West Virginia may be looking to hire Stanford assistant coach Ron Crook as the new Mountaineer offensive line coach.
A short time later WVSports.com was the first to confirm that WVU's Dana Holgorsen does intend to replace Bill Bedenbaugh with Crook, who coached the offensive tackles and tight ends for the Cardinal.
A veteran of the college game with 23-years under his belt Crook has spent the majority of his career coaching the offensive line and has also worked with special teams units at several schools.
While at Harvard, Crook's offensive line helped pave the way for Clifton Dawson (2003-06) to set the Ivy League's all-time career rushing record with 4,841 yards. Eight of Crook's players earned first team All-Ivy honors a combined 11 times, including tackle James Williams, who was a three-time All-America and first team All-Ivy selection.
Crook, a Parkersburg, WV native, earned his degree in physical education from West Liberty State in 1991. Ron and his wife, Stacy have three children - Andrew, Cian and Kenley
Crook will now go through the vetting process at West Virginia and could be officially hired within the next week. WVSports.com will bring you more information as it becomes available.

Dear God, Let's Not Have A Power Blackout
Did I just turn religious?
Guilty as charged.
When dealing with the possibility of a power outage, all logic goes out the storm window and desperate tactics are required.
The 2003 blackout (see above photo) was an unspeakable horror that had me falling to my knees and praying to a higher power for a resolution.
What a dark, draining nightmare, right out of a low-budget sci-fi thriller!
For one thing, I didn't have enough cash on hand (though actually, that was OK since there was nothing available to buy with it.)
But to be deprived of light, TV, computer, phones, and refrigerator seemed to put us several notches below the Stone Age.
It became an unwanted exercise in sensory deprivation whereby things you took for granted--like the ability to work and communicate--were yanked away and you were suddenly a low-rent version of Audrey Hepburn in Wait Until Dark.
It was hard to swivel around and feel fabulous when all we had was a bunch of books that you could read with one hand while shining a flashlight at it with the other.
And I honestly didn't feel like reading. I felt like screaming and praying.
And the streets were absolute madness, since the traffic lights weren't on.
At every corner, drivers had to guess when to start and stop, resulting in sheer mayhem right out of the old Wild West, minus the charm.
Even with traffic lights, you take your life in your hands with these people.
And then the bathroom stopped working.
The toilet wouldn't flush.
Suddenly you were not only desperate, disconnected, and sobbing, you were trying to pour buckets of water into the bowl to make everything go down.
A pioneer plainsman I'm not.
So let's pray for the power to stay on.
And if it does, then let's go back to being atheists.

The original iPad mini was a great product, but it had one glaring flaw: its screen's resolution just wasn't on a par with the rest of Apple's recent devices. So now, a year after the release of the first iPad mini, we have the inevitable follow-up with a razor-sharp Retina Display. Does it live up to expectations? Join Gizmag, as we review Apple's second-generation iPad mini.

So you love Taylor Swift 's new song "Shake It Off," right? But maybe you think there aren't enough references to boots and pants and boots and pants?
Don't you worry one more second because BEHOLD! Here is a local commercial for the East Hills Mall in St. Joseph, Mo. It has everything you could want in a song about a place that holds both a Build-a-Bear and a Panda Express like:
-Terrible green screen work
-Lyrics about haircuts, backpacks and new outfits
-Off-key singing
-Cute little girl who somehow got roped into this atrocity
-Someone beat boxing that sounds like they're just spitting near a microphone
And most importantly:
-Boots and pants and boots and pants!
According to an interview with KNPN, the producer of the commercial, Chris Fleck, was hoping it would go viral. It is unclear if he wanted it to go viral because it's so bad it will keep you up at night or because he thought it was a good(?) commercial.
Doesn't matter. Watch it. Live it. Learn it.

STANFORD, Calif. — Well-traveled, wearing down and staring an historical start in the face, Washington did just enough to be able to rest with smiles.
The Huskies beat Stanford, 65-60, in a sedate, less-than-half filled Maples Pavilion on Saturday night.
For the first time in 101 years, Washington (11-5 overall, 3-0 Pac-12) has won three consecutive road games to start conference play.
Per usual, C.J. Wilcox was the trigger man offensively. He scored a season-high 27 points and added nine rebounds.
Center Aziz N'Diaye continued his powerful Pac-12 play with 14 points, seven rebounds and several bone-rattling screens that often freed Wilcox. N'Diaye, who entered the game as a 44 percent free-throw shooter, was even went 4-for-4 from the line.
The Huskies are one of four unbeaten teams in Pac-12 play, along with UCLA, Oregon and Arizona State. The Ducks and Sun Devils play today in Eugene, Ore.
"I've said this several times, I just couldn't be prouder of our team," Washington coach Lorenzo Romar said.
But, it wasn't easy.
In the final minute, Abdul Gaddy drove with the shot clock winding down and missed a layup attempt over Stanford big man Josh Huestis, who had switched to him. Stanford (10-7, 1-3) grabbed the rebound and called timeout down 62-60 with 39.4 seconds to go.
After the timeout, Josh Powell drove at Desmond Simmons and missed a baseline shot over him and N'Diaye. Wilcox grabbed the rebound and was fouled. He made one free throw to stretch Washington's lead to 63-60.
Stanford guard Aaron Bright, a Bellevue High graduate, missed in the lane and Simmons secured the rebound, hit Wilcox with an outlet and his left-handed layup ended the scoring with 6.1 seconds to play. Stanford missed a meaningless layup just before the buzzer.
Wilcox's pull-up shot with 11:38 to go in the second half gave Washington a 49-43 lead, which prompted timeout by the Huskies.
Romar searched for ways to manage his team through the final game of four consecutive road contests, starting at Connecticut on Dec. 29.
Wilcox and Stanford's Chasson Randle (16 points) dueled in the first half. Randle didn't start because he was late for the pregame shootaround, but once he entered the game, he was a headache for the Huskies.
Randle had 13 points at the half, matching his season average, after 6-for-7 shooting from the field.
Then Wilcox slowed him in the second half, at one point shoving a shot back into his face when Randle tried to bump him off a spot.
Wilcox was 5-for-8 shooting and added six rebounds in the first half, exceeding his season average on the boards by the break.
Wilcox moved past Bryant Boston and into 36th on Washington's all-time scoring list. He has double-figure scoring ins in 15 of Washington's 16 games this season. He has scored 20 or more points nine times this season and 17 times in his career.
Washington's improved defense the previous two games didn't show in the first half. Stanford, which is last in conference field-goal percentage at 40.9 percent coming into the game, shot 51.7 percent from the field.
Then the Huskies locked Stanford up. The Cardinal shot 26.7 percent in the second half.
"I'm ecstatic we were able to do this," Romar said.

SITKA - Every third Thursday in November, tobacco users are encouraged to set a date to quit or pledge to be smoke-free for 24 hours as a part of the American Cancer Society's Great American Smokeout.
Quarantines of big cities such as Toronto and Hong Kong have been making the news this spring. The little city of Juneau made similar headlines in October 1918 when Mayor Emory Valentine, chairman of the Health Board, J.H. Montgomery and City Health Officer Dr. L.O. Sloane ordered a quarantine Oct. 29 as a precautionary measure against the spread of the virulent Spanish influenza. The reason for the quarantine was the recognition of three cases of the flu on the previous day. Ketchikan had been the first city in Southeast Alaska to see flu, according to the Alaska Daily Empire, and had already been quarantined. Now, in Juneau, people were "requested to keep from congregating in any public place."
As a boy growing up in Wrangell in the late 1950s, I feared going to the dentist because of the inevitable need to fill a tooth cavity. This was always preceded by the painful shot of Novocain in the mouth which on a couple of occasions didn't work. I am glad my children and most of their mates didn't have to go through those experiences. Much of the credit for this is water fluoridation that Juneau provided until recently.
Community water fluoridation is not a new and untried experiment. Millions of people have drunk naturally fluoridated water for generations.
Recently, a group of Juneau citizens began circulating a petition to put the issue of fluoridating our drinking water on the fall ballot.
Residents of Saxman voted to sell land to the Cape Fox Corp., which plans to build a technology training center on the parcel near its headquarters.
The winners of the Southeast Alaska Regional Science Fair, held Saturday in Juneau, are Joey Bosworth and Erika O'Sullivan in a group project on the effects of age and succession type on the composition of forest overstory and understory; Sara Bogert, who studied how carbon source affects microbial sulfate reduction in mine tailings; and Sam Post, who studied how wing curve affects lift force.
The 2004 Southeast Alaska Regional Science Fair was held Friday and Saturday, March 5-6, at the Marie Drake gym. The fair's major sponsors were: Alaska Airlines, British Petroleum, Coeur Alaska Inc., Conoco Philips, Juneau School District, Leighty Foundation, Murray & Associates PC, and Wells Fargo Foundation.
Every third Thursday in November, tobacco users are encouraged to make a plan and set a date to quit for life, or pledge to be smoke-free for 24 hours as a part of the American Cancer Society's Great American Smokeout.

Evacuations are underway Sunday morning in the Idaho Creek neighborhood and River Valley Village trailer park near Del Camino and on the west side of Longmont because the St. Vrain River is rising quickly.
East of Longmont, near Del Camino, Mountain View Fire and Rescue spokeswoman Amy Tallent said "we are receiving reports that the river is rising 7 inches every 15 minutes."
The Longmont Police Department also ordered the re-evacuation of neighborhoods on the west side of town, including The Greens, Champion Greens and Valley because of the rising river. The Royal Street Mobile Home Park remains evacuated.
Rains continue to pound Boulder County.
Tallent said Mead High School, northeast of Longmont, has been opened as a shelter. In Longmont, people needing shelter can go to LifeBridge Christian Church at Colorado 66 and Gay Street, the Memorial Building at Longs Peak Avenue and Coffman Street, or Niwot High School at 8989 Niwot Road.
Tallent said people who assistance evacuating should call 911.

Have you tried running System File Checker in Windows XP? If not yet, please do this:
Open Command Prompt in Windows
Type SFC /scannow
Hit enter key on the keyboard
Let the system check for any issues. If you are prompted to insert your XP installation disc, do it.
See if that will do any help. Even if not, please try opening IE then visit Microsoft Update website for any updates. Install the critical updates if any is offered.
Ok, so here is my problem. I was on Myspace looking at a music artists' photos, when all of a sudden, my anti virus program (Avast Professional Edition, the one that you buy) pops up and tells me a whole bunch of viruses are invading my computer. After this occurrence, my internet has been really slow and unresponsive. Never again will I go on Myspace.
So over the past 5 days or so, I have been virus scanning my entire computer about 10 times, and my anti virus cannot find any more viruses. I have also done anti-spyware scans and I have eliminated a bunch of spyware, too. The problem hasn't gone away, though.
When I say my internet has been really messed up, I mean this: My anti virus' script blocker and all of the other blockers are on their highest settings along with Firefox's pop-up blocker, and I still get pop-ups, something I have almost never gotten before.
Besides this, when I try to visit websites, my Firefox error console gets riddled with error messages telling me it doesn't recognize or can't read a certain part of a website and it says "Declaration dropped." For example, on youtube, I looked on the error console and it said this: "Unknown Property 'zoom'. Declaration dropped."
Also, when I tried to install a registry clean up software, I got a message saying that the download wasn't a valid Win32 application or something of that sort. The download was from www.download.com, for the record. I eventually got one installed, but my internet hasn't shown any signs of improving.
By the way, when I typed in Firefox's website to try to re-install it, the website wouldn't load. It just wouldn't. Also, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer aren't any faster. In fact, most websites don't load for me at all. I can't check Email. On YouTube, the page itself will load, but when I click on a video, I get a black video window with a swirling load icon that would have stayed there for hours if I has just left it there.
What I also found quite intriguing was that whenever a pop-up appeared on my internet while using Firefox, it would say at the top of the window "Internet Explorer" despite me not being on Internet Explorer.
Also, I have tried to do a System Restore to multiple points within the past few months and every time my computer starts back up, I get a message telling me "Restoration Incomplete." The funny thing is that I am never told why.
My computer can still play video games and do almost everything else that doesn't include the internet just fine, but my internet is just so messed up.
I have the disc for the operating system I am running (Windows XP Professional), so I could re-install my operating system, but I really don't know a lot on this subject so I am waiting for advice on what to do.
One more thing: I have reset my router about 5 times and it has done nothing to help the problem.
Can someone please help me? My computer's internet has never acted this way.
Thank you!!!!!!!!

It is roughly 6 degrees out, lots of ice and snow and salt - which has built up around the bottom of my van. I only drive maybe 3-4 miles a day to work and only drive surface streets, and with the weather, have been going slower than usual...so like 20-30 mph. Today, midway all the "service" lights came on, the steering seemed looser, I had to slow down so I wouldn't slide, but it was driveable, just felt like the camero I had when I was a kid! I just recently had an oil change (1 wk ago), had new brakes done (July) and I think they rotate the tires. I read about sensors going bad causing the abs light and wondering what the chances are that a good car wash and wheel wash (I did drive roughly 4 hours north and back 3 times this summer and once last weekend in the snow without really ever doing more than driving through a $3 car wash)....I'm a single mom and can't afford hundreds of dollars at the dealer! Please help.

Computer liquidator
A computer liquidator buys computer technology and related equipment that is no longer required by one company, and resells ("flips") it to another company. There are several reasons why companies sell used Information Technology (I.T.) equipment: bankruptcy is one, downsizing and expanding are two more, but by far the most common reason is that the equipment is no longer performing the tasks required of it, usually because it has been rendered obsolete by more advanced technology coming on to the market. This used or obsolete technology is often referred to as eWaste.
However, equipment designated as outdated for one company is still viable for another company, whose operations may not require advanced solutions. Often, an information technology audit will be performed to help a company decide if their equipment needs updating, and if so, what the requirements are.
Computer liquidation is a sustainable solution and is environmentally friendly. The best liquidating companies have clearly outlined policies regarding the disposal of dangerous substances which are often an issue with information technology. For anyone concerned about environmental protection, the fact that there are companies out there doing business with a view to saving the planet from at least some pollution is comforting. Such services also provide original purchasers the peace-of-mind of knowing that their discarded equipment will be disposed of properly and legally.
I.T. has blossomed in recent decades. As newer and better technology replaces hardware at an ever-increasing speed, alarming amounts of technical trash were being produced almost from the beginning. It was obvious from the outset that sooner or later there would be a problem as people scrambled to update hardware. Predictions were made that every landfill would soon be overflowing with discarded computer screens and computers, along with associated equipment such as keyboards and mouses and all the other hardware associated with use of the Internet.
