Martian minerals 'strongest evidence yet' of life on the red planet - and it could still be there
- Red Planet could have hosted microorganisms
- McLaughlin Crater holds traces of water altered minerals
- Findings could reveal clues about life on Earth
Martians may well have existed, and still be on the red planet - but not in any recognisable form, British scientists said today.
Scientists believe the discovery of minerals below the Red Planet's surface is the 'strongest evidence yet' it may have supported life.
But far from hosting little green men, our celestial neighbour was likely inhabited by simple microorganisms.
The huge McLaughlin Crater created by a meteorite which smashed into the surface of Mars, has been shown to reveal signs of life
Layers with Carbonate Content Inside McLaughlin Crater on Mars This view of layered rocks on the floor of McLaughlin Crater shows sedimentary rocks that contain spectroscopic evidence for minerals formed through interaction with water
Scientists at the University of Aberdeen looked at data from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and ESA's Mars Express spacecrafts and analysed rocks and found they contain clays and minerals whose chemical make-up has been altered by water
Lifeless: This image provided by NASA shows the late-afternoon shadow cast by the Mars rover Opportunity
A new study led by the Natural History Museum, with the University of Aberdeen, found that all the ingredients for life were present just below the planet's surface for much of its history.
When meteorites strike the surface of Mars, they act like natural probes, bringing up rocks from far beneath the crust.
Looking at data from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter and ESA's Mars Express spacecrafts, they analysed rocks and found they contain clays and minerals whose chemical make-up has been altered by water.
With up to half of life on Earth consisting of simple microorganisms that live in below the surface, scientists have suggested that the same may have been true for Mars.
Prof John Parnell, 55, a geochemist at the University of Aberdeen was one of the experts who have uncovered evidence of life on Mars
Dr Joseph Michalski, lead author and planetary geologist at the Natural History Museum said: 'All the ingredients were there for life, but only small single-cell organisms could have survived in those conditions.
'But I would now be more surprised if there was never any life on Mars, than I would be if we did one day discover that simple life lived in that environment.
'And if life existed then, there is a chance it could still exist now.'
Some deep craters on Mars also acted as basins where groundwater likely emerged to produce lakes, which contain clay and carbonate minerals.
The fluids that formed these minerals could one day tell us more as to whether there was life beneath the surface, and also carry clues to how life developed on Earth.
Dr Michalski, whose study is
published in the journal Nature Geoscience, said: 'We don't know how
life on Earth formed but it is conceivable that it originated
underground, protected from harsh surface conditions that existed on
early Earth.
'Due to
plate tectonics, however, the early geological record of Earth is poorly
preserved so we may never know what processes led to life's origin and
early evolution.
'Exploring these rocks on Mars, where the ancient geologic record is better preserved than on Earth, would be like finding a stack of pages that have been ripped out of Earth's geological history book.
'Whether the Martian geologic record contains life or not, analysis of these types of rocks would certainly teach us a tremendous amount about early chemical processes in the solar system.'
Nasa's Mars probe, the Curiosity rover, will begin drilling on the planet's surface in the next few days [check it hasn't started] for rock samples.
It is the most highly anticipated milestone since the six-wheel, nuclear-powered rover landed near the Martian equator five months ago.

ICC Cricket World Cup 2011 / News
World Cup 2011
West Indies seek to replace injured Baugh, Barath
ESPNcricinfo staff
February 19, 2011

Players/Officials: Adrian Barath | Carlton Baugh | Kieron Pollard
Series/Tournaments: ICC Cricket World Cup
Teams: West Indies
West Indies have suffered a double injury blow ahead of the World Cup, with opener Adrian Barath and wicketkeeper Carlton Baugh picking up hamstring injuries that have put them out of action for two to three weeks. Batsman Kirk Edwards and wicketkeeper Devon Thomas have been cleared by the ICC to replace the two players and will join the West Indies squad on Monday.
Baugh was forced to retire out on 29 during the warm-up match with Sri Lanka. Darren Bravo took his place behind the stumps during Sri Lanka's chase. Barath did not take any part in that game. Later, both underwent scans, and the West Indies media spokesperson had confirmed that the outlook was not good.
Meanwhile, there was some rare good news in the West Indies camp when Kieron Pollard, who sat out of both the warm-up games due to a side strain, was declared fit.
West Indies have the resources in their current squad to manage until replacements arrive - in addition to Darren Bravo who can keep, they have Devon Smith, an opener who can take Barath's place at the top of the order.
West Indies play their opening game against South Africa in Delhi on February 24. Their next three games are against Netherlands, Bangladesh and Ireland, before the potentially tougher group encounters with England and India, on March 17 and 20.

Good Team,Good Selection Committee.......Waste Indies
Posted by LRichards on (February 18, 2011, 23:11 GMT)
Samuels definite pick for me, older,wisely,hungry, point to prove, played well in the recently concluded CT20, 250 plus in four a match Jamaica vs Guyana. He deserved a pick, Santokie or Cotherel would have my wild card picks.
Posted by aclarity on (February 18, 2011, 21:02 GMT)
The WI Selectors have the same failed policy of 2007 W'Cup. They picked 33% of the players as 'Utility performers" that neither bow or bat well - Miller, Sammy, Russel, Bravo and Pollard. Historically good allrounders are hard to find but WI is searching. They should pick 7 batsmen, 6 bowlers in the 15. Kurt Edwards is a batsman and should have been in the original 15.
The basic philosophy of cricket is bowlers must bowl and batsmen must bat. If you are lucky to have a Sobers, Kallis, Dev, Botham etc Great! WI must stick to this reality.
Posted by Riddymon on (February 18, 2011, 18:42 GMT)
Here's my list of people who can be LEFT OUT of the team: Pollard - No amount of shuffling him up and down the order will change that fact that he's a slugger who makes his runs very quickly and doesn't hang around. Hey I like him to but it's the truth. Devon Smith - Hasn't done a single thing since he was brought back into the side Rampaul - Has the ability to take wickets but should either be used in SHORT SPELLS (2 or 3 overs) or not played at all. I've seen him lose too many games for West Indies Miller - I have nothing against this guy, I think he's awesome. I just feel that Gayle and Benn can do the job themselves. Use Miller's spot to bring in another batsman or all-rounder. I don't understand why the selectors always leave out Nash if it's not a test., he's pretty much a second Chanderpaul and has PROVEN that he stabilizes the middle order and can make runs. Fletcher, Pollard should be reserved for T20 only. The only format where their 20-30 runs they make is a good score
Posted by Riddymon on (February 18, 2011, 18:32 GMT)
First of all, let me address this crap that I've heard being spewed about Sammy not being able to make the team on a regular basis but still becoming captain. You're complaining about a decision made by the same incompetent selection committee that continously picks "run bleeding" Rampaul (anyone who thinks he should be on the team is smoking something heavy), benches one of their best batsman, constantly calls on proven useless players (i.e. Devon Smith to open) and straight up ALWAYS makes decisions that leaves us scratching our head when the final team is announced. Sammy in the past has proven to be one of the most reliable LOWER ORDER batsman (regularly scoring 20-30 runs per innings) and a consistent utility bowler (normally takes at least 2 wickets per innings) with a low economy rate. He's a workhorse, not necessarily a game changer. I don't understand why people seems to forget this about him. I'll admit that his stats have suffered since he's become captain, though.
Posted by enigma12345 on (February 18, 2011, 17:55 GMT)
If We Add Marlon Samuels and L.Simmons.Windies Batting Line up will get Strength. and Squad Look Like C.Gayle,S.Chanderpaul,D.Bravo Jr, R.Sarwan,M,Samuels,K.Pollard,L.Simmons(WK)D.Bravo sr, S.Benn,A.Russel,K.Roach. We Can Score 280+ But its Very Very Hard To Defend that total..With This Bowling Attack We Should Hav F.Edwards and J.Taylor or at least Gavin Tongue to Balance it.
I Think J.Taylor,F.Edwards,Kemar Roach Trio Will Hurt Any Batting Line Up With the Support of Benn,Gayle and D.Bravo sr
Now its Waste of Time Talking about This Totally immbalaced Side Selected By Windies Selectors
Posted by tnelson on (February 18, 2011, 17:31 GMT)
Guys dont hold your breath for the selectors to make the right and bold decision, you will get blue in the face. Not sure if Marlon is eligible, his name was not among those submitted to the ICC for selection. Given the recent form of Chanderpaul and Sammy, neither have performed at level to warrant selection and should have made way for players whose recent record have been overlooked. To all my colleagues adjust your expectations to the realities of the WI cricket and quality of leadership, if not, you may put your well being at risk.
Posted by dummy4fb on (February 18, 2011, 17:16 GMT)
i think of all the batsmen left in the caribbean who aren't at the world marlon samuels would be the perfect fit to replace barath ....the man is in blinding form he 's hitting the cricket ball so clean its been along time since i've seen him place like this .....atleast curtly ambrose see what i've see[ marlon samuels]kirk edward good young player but not for the world cup
Posted by Bishopdragon65 on (February 18, 2011, 17:07 GMT)
Wow! this is the problem that Sammy presents now that you have the injuries in the Squad. In a perfect word you could have included Pollard as a Batsman move Shiv up the order and bring in Thomas to keep. With sammy in the team you have dead weight because there is nothing that this fellow can do exceptionally to put this team over the line.
Posted by Bishopdragon65 on (February 18, 2011, 17:00 GMT)

Make Learners Care about Compliance Training
Experiencing eLearning
Compliance training is a common use for elearning. All those policies and regulations that affect our businesses need to be trained. Unfortunately, compliance training is often just a content dump with a narrator basically reading the policy, followed by some multiple choice questions to see if learners remember what they heard 5 minutes earlier.
Motivating Learners to Look Up Compliance Policies Themselves
Experiencing eLearning
In my last post, I explained how starting compliance training with a worst-case scenario can engage learners right from the start. Let's say you're creating training for managers on providing reasonable accommodations for disabilities. The training is described as "learner-centric" in Michael Allen's Guide to E-Learning.

Compliance courses have the potential to change the way your staff act more than any other type of training. Unfortunately compliance learning has a reputation for being dull and irrelevant with many of the people who are required to take it. Comply with legislation The underlying aim of compliance learning is avoiding mistakes that could lead to breaches in the law.
e-Learning and Compliance Training: Strategies for impactful course design
Compliance trainings feature prominently in most organizational training calendars. The technology-aided platform works very well with these mandatory trainings. This is because the required time-frame of completing the training is specified, so the learner can take up the training as per his per her schedule – without compromising on the existing deliverables.

But did you know it can enhance your compliance training programs too? Taking care of the huge set of rules and regulations and making sure your compliance training covers them all is burden enough. You no longer have to worry about rolling out the training courses, refreshers, tracking employee progress, reporting completion status, and more. Do share your views!

In this studies, adaptive boundary control for a flexible two-link manipulator with a changeable payload at the free-end. Taking into account the infinite-dimensionality of the flexural dynamics, this study proposes a partial differential equation (PDE) model, so that the problem of possible spillover instability caused by the neglect of flexible modes can be avoided. Based on the PDE model, an adaptive boundary control scheme is designed to regulate joint position and suppress elastic vibration while compensating for parametric uncertainties. The asymptotic stability of the closed-loop system is validated theoretically. The effectiveness of the control scheme is also verified by the numerical simulations.

Correcting distortionsby snowfalken (1116)
snowfalken (1116) 2007-12-09 01:26:25Hello Lili,
I used CS2 to correct the distortions produced by the lens. This aspect is often overlooked. I worked on the image posted as workshop. Here's the workflow:
1. Opened the file;
2. Cropped the frame;
3. Rotated the image to the right so that the bus becomes somewhat horizontal and the edges of the buildings in the middle become more vertical;
4. Used the perspective tool to correct perspective;
5. Sharpened the image using the high pass filter (please note that it is impossible to obtain the same sharpness quality when working on this small size of the picture);
6. Added frame;
7. Saved the file.
I hope you like it!

My spanish is very poor but from your reply on my critique I understood you wanted me to write you a WS. If I didn't understand well, please apologize. This is my first WS ever!
Here is your photo the way I see it. What I did was:
1. I used the clone tool to clone out any distracting element.
2. I used a layered mask to retouch the parts where my hand wasn't accurate.
3. I used the blur tool to blur the plant and the balcony.
4. I cropped the black frame.
5. I added a new frame.
6. I saved the picture.
Now the photo conveys what the title says: "THE SHADOW".
I hope you will like it! And once again please forgive me if I misunderstood your reply.
Friendly Yours,
PS: If you need the unblurred version of this WS please contact me. I'll keep it for one week.

Sid's Recovery
Thoughts on Sanctification
|"This is my journey through recovery, showing how my Creator is using the the 12-Step Christian recovery model to give me relief from the behaviors that bring me pain." --Sid
Early in my recovery process, God laid on my heart many situations for which I needed to make amends. Even though it was a very painful process to go through, I felt much better about myself for making the list and following through with the amends. Since that time I have continued to take personal inventory, and when I was wrong, promptly (well, usually I've been prompt :-) admitted it -- once I recognized my mistake.
But when it's me that has been wronged, am I able to see whether or not I have anything to make amends for in that situation? I think that sometimes I may be unable to see my own mistakes through the pain that I suffer as a result of other people's words and/or actions. This may be where forgiveness comes into play. I doubt whether I can truly make amends in the case where I have not forgiven that person for what they have done to wound me.
"Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye." (Colossians 3:13 )
There could be other times when I am over-sensitive to my actions and may choose to make amends when no amends are needed. This is less-likely, but I need to be careful to seek, and to stay in, God's will.
I'm coming to believe that forgiving doesn't mean excusing or forgetting the wrong. And it doesn't mean a removal of consequences. But it does mean a change of attitude on my part. It means that I begin to wish the offender well. It means that I pray that my offender may find healing through recovery, so that they may find the peace and joy that I am finding in the Lord. It means that I want to see my offender as an erring child of God, such as I. It means... that I am becoming willing to make amends.
"For if ye forgive men their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you:" (Matthew 6:14 )
"Made a list of all persons we had harmed and became willing to make amends to them all." (Step 8)
"Now, no discipline is pleasant, but God's discipline is for my own good, so that I may be a partaker of His holiness, thereby bearing the peaceful fruit of righteousness." (Hebrews 12:1-11 -- paraphrased by Sid).
"Since so many have gone before me, participating in the life-changing experience of recovery in the Lord, it behooves me to learn how to lay my issues at the foot of the cross, and look to Jesus for my deliverance.
When I think of Jesus, I see a man who endured much harder trials and temptations than I ever have. He endured all this hardship for the joy of knowing that as a result of His sacrifice, I would have the opportunity for an eternal life of peace and happiness with Him. When tempted to think that I have it bad, I remind myself that I have never resisted temptation to the degree of sweating great drops of blood, as did Jesus.
Neither should I despise the discipline of God, because He does it out of His infinitely pure love for me. As I am teachable in this discipline, God deals with me as His child. But if I refuse His discipline, I become more like a bastard than a child of God.
My earthly parents disciplined me according to their limited understanding, and out of their dysfunctional past, and maybe even for their own pleasure, yet I gave them respect and learned from them. How much more then should I respect and honor the infinitely wise Creator God who loves me so much that He gave His only Son to die for me that I may have life eternal?
"Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings." (Step 7)
"What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein? Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin. For he that is dead is freed from sin." (Romans 6:1-7 )
So, I have to ask myself, "Is my 'old man' crucified with Christ?" Repentance calls us to full consecration to God and His leading because "half measures availed us nothing" (Alcoholics Anonymous p. 59). Andrew Murray described this commitment as the key to a Spirit-filled life, when he said, "Being filled with the Holy Spirit is simply this -- having my whole nature yielded to His power. When the whole soul is yielded to the Holy Spirit, God Himself will fill it." (Absolute Surrender p. 12)
Isn't it time "That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness." (Ephesians 4:22-24 ). Of course, to let go of those old dependencies is easier said than done. But, as I consider the way God has stepped in to help me whenever I surrender to Him in the moment of temptation, I continue to move forward in faith, trusting that He will never ask me to do anything that He will not provide a way for me to accomplish. (1 Cor 10:13 )
"Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character." (Step 6)
One of the facets of fifth-step confession is the acknowledgment of what went wrong in our family of origin, as well as in our parent's families of origin. There is something about family dysfunction that tends to repeat itself, when we don't acknowledge those problems. Stuffing the garbage of our past by trying to forget it does not bring us healing. It only sets us up to repeat the sins of our ancestors.
"...visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation..." (Exodus 20:5 ).
But when we admit our family sins to ourselves, to God, and to another human being, those sins lose a lot of the power that they once held over us. This must be why James said, "Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much." (James 5:16 )
This facet of confession has helped me to recognize the unfulfilled love-hungers of my childhood as part of the reason why I sought love in all the wrong ways for many wasted years of my life. Today, I realize that confession is a God-given tool to help me release my past sins and move on to a better, more fulfilling future.
"Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs." (Step 5)
A friend of mine tells the story of a farmer who has just spent the entire day working his fields on his tractor. It was a long, hot, day for the farmer, and since his tractor had no cab, he was covered with dirt. He had worked well past dusk, and parked his tractor out in the barn. So now, he has only the faint light from the farmhouse windows to lead him home. He begins to notice that he is dirty and so dusts himself off. But, as he gets closer and closer to the light, he sees more and more just how dirty he has become, all along, continuing to dust himself off, as best he can.
So it is with life. For years and years, as many of us have acted in foolishness, we have accumulated more and more "dirt". As we moved deeper and deeper into our destructive behaviors, darkness came in to hide from us the reality of just how "dirty" we really were. Then, as we engage in the process of sanctification by admitting powerlessness (John 5:19,30 ) and His all-powerfulness (John 15:5 ) and start to surrender our will and our life to Him (Acts 9:1-6 ), we begin to walk toward the light of Heaven. In so doing, we now begin to see more and more just how "dirty" we have become (the illumination of introspection). More and more, we come out of denial about our true condition. More and more, God gives us the grace and strength (1 Corinthians 10:13 ) to, not only understand, but to also deal with (dust off), the deep, dark, issues in our lives.
Even though it has been painful for me to go through this process (since I've been very 'dirty'), I praise God for introspection because the grace of God is much more abundant than ALL of our sins (Romans 5:20 ). As I have been learning to cooperate with Him, He continues to "dust me off" and to bring me closer and closer to the light of Heaven, through Jesus Christ my Savior. My prayer is that it may be so for you too.
"All the ways of a man are clean in his own eyes; but the LORD weigheth the spirits. Commit thy works unto the LORD, and thy thoughts shall be established." (Proverbs 16:2-3 )
"Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves." (Step 4)

Always Expect Something Wonderful!
Expect something wonderful all the time!
Sometimes, quite expectantly, you find yourself smack dab in the middle of something wonderful. That's exactly what happened yesterday when I went to the downtown Harold Washington Chicago Public Library. Supreme Justice Sonia Sotomayor appeared in the 9th floor Winter Garden for a discussion of her new book of memoir entitled My Beloved World. In addition to actually meeting Justice Sotomayor, I had the pleasure of meeting a seven year old girl named Tabbie Major who, after returning library books, had pleaded with her mother to be allowed to stay and see Justice Sotomayor because of the love of reading they shared. After the event, I spent an absolutely enjoyable Green Line train ride back to Austin with Tabbie and her mother Tammie. To say it was a delightful experience is an understatement. This experience reminded me of one of my favorite sayings:
'Good things happen all the time; sometimes we are just too focused on the negative to enjoy the good.'
Remember to smell the sweet fragrances of life. They will brighten your day like the infectious smile of Tabbie Major brightened mines.
