A UCSB professor's research examines 13,000-year-old nanodiamonds from multiple locations across three continents
Most of North America's megafauna — mastodons, short-faced bears, giant ground sloths, saber-toothed cats and American camels and horses — disappeared close to 13,000 years ago at the end of the Pleistocene period. The cause of this massive extinction has long been debated by scientists who, until recently, could only speculate as to why.
A group of scientists, including UC Santa Barbara's James Kennett, professor emeritus in the Department of Earth Science, posited that a comet collision with Earth played a major role in the extinction. Their hypothesis suggests that a cosmic-impact event precipitated the Younger Dryas period of global cooling close to 12,800 years ago.
This cosmic impact caused abrupt environmental stress and degradation that contributed to the extinction of most large animal species then inhabiting the Americas. According to Kennett, the catastrophic impact and the subsequent climate change also led to the disappearance of the prehistoric Clovis culture, known for its big game hunting, and to human population decline.
In a new study published this week in the Journal of Geology, Kennett and an international group of scientists have focused on the character and distribution of nanodiamonds, one type of material produced during such an extraterrestrial collision.
The researchers found an abundance of these tiny diamonds distributed over 50 million square kilometers across the Northern Hemisphere at the Younger Dryas boundary (YDB). This thin, carbon-rich layer is often visible as a thin black line a few meters below the surface.
Kennett and investigators from 21 universities in six countries investigated nanodiamonds at 32 sites in 11 countries across North America, Europe and the Middle East. Two of the sites are just across the Santa Barbara Channel from UCSB: one at Arlington Canyon on Santa Rosa Island, the other at Daisy Cave on San Miguel Island.
"We conclusively have identified a thin layer over three continents, particularly in North America and Western Europe, that contain a rich assemblage of nanodiamonds, the production of which can be explained only by cosmic impact," Kennett said. "We have also found YDB glassy and metallic materials formed at temperatures in excess of 2200 degrees Celsius, which could not have resulted from wildfires, volcanism or meteoritic flux, but only from cosmic impact."
The team found that the YDB layer also contained larger than normal amounts of cosmic impact spherules, high-temperature melt-glass, grapelike soot clusters, charcoal, carbon spherules, osmium, platinum and other materials. But in this paper the researchers focused their multi-analytical approach exclusively on nanodiamonds, which were found in several forms, including cubic (the form of diamonds used in jewelry) and hexagonal crystals.
"Different types of diamonds are found in the YDB assemblages because they are produced as a result of large variations in temperature, pressure and oxygen levels associated with the chaos of an impact," Kennett explained. "These are exotic conditions that came together to produce the diamonds from terrestrial carbon; the diamonds did not arrive with the incoming meteorite or comet."
Based on multiple analytical procedures, the researchers determined that the majority of the materials in the YDB samples are nanodiamonds and not some other kinds of minerals. The analysis showed that the nanodiamonds consistently occur in the YDB layer over broad areas.
"There is no known limit to the YDB strewnfield which currently covers more than 10 percent of the planet, indicating that the YDB event was a major cosmic impact," Kennett said. "The nanodiamond datum recognized in this study gives scientists a snapshot of a moment in time called an isochron."
To date, scientists know of only two layers in which more than one identification of nanodiamonds has been found: the YDB 12,800 years ago and the well-known Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary 65 million years ago, which is marked by the mass extinction of the dinosaurs, ammonites and many other groups.
"The evidence we present settles the debate about the existence of abundant YDB nanodiamonds," Kennett said. "Our hypothesis challenges some existing paradigms within several disciplines, including impact dynamics, archaeology, paleontology and paleoceanography/paleoclimatology, all affected by this relatively recent cosmic impact."

Permanent magnets are very important for technologies of the future like electromobility and renewable energy, and rare earth elements (REE) are necessary for their manufacture. The Fraunhofer Institute for Mechanics of Materials IWM in Freiburg, Germany, has now succeeded in identifying promising approaches and materials for new permanent magnets through use of an in-house simulation process based on high-throughput screening (HTS). The team was able to improve magnetic properties this way and at the same time replaced REE with elements that are less expensive and readily available. The results were published in the online technical journal "Scientific Reports".
The starting point for IWM researchers Wolfgang Körner, Georg Krugel, and Christian Elsässer was a neodymium-iron-nitrogen compound based on a type of...

House Republicans on Thursday elected Kevin McCarthy as their new majority leader, elevating the 49-year-old Californian to the No. 2 position in GOP leadership and triggering a subsequent contest to replace him as majority whip.
McCarthy defeated Rep. Raul Labrador in the race to replace Eric Cantor, whose shocking primary loss last Tuesday set the stage for Thursday's secret-ballot special election. After the vote, Labrador asked for the results to be recorded as unanimous — a gesture appreciated by his colleagues.
Shortly after McCarthy's victory, Republicans elected Rep. Steve Scalise to replace him as whip on the first ballot. Scalise was the front-runner throughout the three-man race between him, Rep. Peter Roskam, and Rep. Marlin Stutzman; the only question was whether Scalise could win an outright majority on the first ballot and avoid an unpredictable head-to-head contest with either Roskam or Stutzman.
Roskam attributed Scalise's first-ballot victory to "a great campaign," adding that he will "actively support" the new whip.
Vote tallies were not released by GOP officials in charge of the election, but the end result is all that matters: McCarthy and Scalise will join Speaker John Boehner atop the Republican leadership team.
After the votes, the new team — McCarthy, Scalise, Boehner, and Conference Chairwoman Cathy McMorris Rodgers — came together for a short news conference. "I make one promise," McCarthy said. "I will work every single day to make sure this conference has the courage to lead with the wisdom to listen. And we'll turn this country around."
Scalise emphasized that he would bring a fresh voice to leadership and asked President Obama to work with them to solve the nation's problems. "We've got solid conservative solutions that are going to solve the problems facing our country," he said.
McCarthy and Scalise will not officially assume their new roles until July 31, when Cantor steps down from the post. At that point only 12 legislative days are scheduled before the Nov. 4 midterm elections. And, after the midterms wrap up, another round of internal elections will be held for both parties in the House to choose leaders for the next Congress.
Republicans, in fact, were buzzing about this fall's elections before Thursday's contest was completed.
"We're going to hold them accountable," Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina said Wednesday when speaking about the candidates in Thursday's races. "There's another leadership election right around the corner, and we're going to watch how this new leadership team works with the speaker and how they lead the conference through this crucial November election. And then we'll judge them."
While McCarthy supporters were celebrating, FreedomWorks President Matt Kibbe, in response to Labrador's loss, was already pointing to the next round of leadership voting after the Nov. 4 elections — a harbinger of possible battles ahead.
"We are looking forward to an even bigger group of liberty leadership candidates after the elections in November," said Kibbe.
When McCarthy was asked at the presser after the vote about possible conservative concern over his blue-state background, the California Republican touted his biography. House Republicans "elected a guy who is a grandson of a cattle rancher, a son of a firefighter. Only in America do you get that opportunity," he said.
"I think you give an opportunity, people'll be very impressed about what we're going to do and where we're going to go," he said before leaving the podium.
McCarthy will become the nation's 25th different House majority leader — a position created in 1899 and first held by another Republican, Sereno Elisha Payne of New York. No majority leader has ever risen from that post to eventually become president. But some have been promoted to speaker — including Boehner, who was leader from 2005 to 2007.
The main duties of a majority leader are to schedule legislation for floor consideration, and plan the daily — and weekly — agendas, along with gauging member sentiment on goals and how to proceed.
McCarthy will have more than a month to transition into the new role, but he could nonetheless face a baptism by fire. There's a bundle of unresolved but important legislation in this Congress that a leader must decide whether or when to move forward on. Those range from unfinished appropriations bills for the fiscal year starting Oct. 1, to miscellaneous tariffs, terrorism risk insurance, the Trade Adjustment Assistance program, rechartering the Export-Import Bank, replenishing the Highway Trust Fund, and passing a new surface-transportation bill.
Some House Republicans have said they believe Cantor sticking around through next month will help McCarthy — Cantor's best friend in Congress — and his staff learn the ropes of their new job. Cantor endorsed McCarthy to succeed him last Wednesday after announcing his July 31 resignation as leader.
Immediately after McCarthy's election was announced, Cantor tweeted his approval.
Scalise also should benefit from a slow transition, as his new position entails forging personal relationships across the conference to build voting coalitions that transcend the House GOP's geographic and ideological boundaries. It's a difficult job — and one that Scalise could be quite well-suited to, given his impressive whipping operation this week that won him the promotion.
One of the realities awaiting McCarthy and Scalise is that American confidence in Congress has sunk to a new low.
A new Gallup poll shows 7 percent of Americans say they have "a great deal" or "quite a lot" of confidence in Congress as an American institution — down from the previous low of 10 percent in 2013. Those results come from a June 5-8 Gallup poll that updated Americans' confidence in 17 U.S. institutions.

Trump, in a statement: "Based on the fact that the Democratic nominating process is totally rigged and Crooked Hillary Clinton and Deborah Wasserman Schultz will not allow Bernie Sanders to win, and now that I am the presumptive Republican nominee, it seems inappropriate that I would debate the second place finisher. ... I will wait to debate the first place finisher in the Democratic Party, probably Crooked Hillary Clinton, or whoever it may be."
"It's about time for unity," said UAW President Dennis Williams. "We're endorsing Hillary Clinton. She's gotten 3 million more votes than Bernie, a million more votes than Donald Trump. She's our nominee." He called Sanders "a great friend of the UAW" while saying Trump "does not support the economic security of UAW families." Some 28 percent of UAW members indicated their support for Trump in an internal survey.
"Donald Trump on Thursday reached the number of delegates needed to clinch the Republican nomination for president, completing an unlikely rise that has upended the political landscape and sets the stage for a bitter fall campaign. Trump was put over the top in the Associated Press delegate count by a small number of the party's unbound delegates who told the AP they would support him at the convention."
"Clinton and Bernie Sanders "are now devoting additional money to television advertising. A day after Sanders announced a new ad buy of less than $2 million in the state, Clinton announced her own television campaign. Ads featuring actor Morgan Freeman as well as labor leader and civil rights activist Dolores Huerta will air beginning on Fridayin Fresno, Sacramento, and Los Angeles media markets. Some ads will also target Latino voters and Asian American voters. The total value of the buy is about six figures according to the Clinton campaign." Meanwhile, a new poll shows Sanders within the margin of error, trailing Clinton 44%-46%.

DENTON COUNTY (CBSDFW.COM) – More than a hundred firefighters from thirteen departments helped contain a 75-acre brush fire Sunday on the west side of Lake Lewisville.
As of 9 p.m. Sunday, the fire was 95 percent contained.
Denton County Fire Chief Jody Gonzalez said firefighters have dug a 5-foot-wide fire line around the burning area.
In a testament to the severity of the drought, the fire started at the bottom of a dried-out creek and made its way to the bottom of Lake Lewisville just west of FM 2499 bridge.
RELATED: Lake Levels Continue To Drop In North Texas
Wake buoys that once floated on top of the water at Lake Lewisville were burned to a crisp.
That caused FM 2499 between Orchid Hill Lane and FM 2181 to closed earlier in the day, according to Highland Village police.
No homes were evacuated, although teams were at the ready to take a defensive approach if flames come too close a nearby neighborhood.
Neighbors in the area said smoke filled the air Sunday afternoon.

I'm a lecture junkie. I have previously blogged about Little Gray Books, one of my favorite online lecture series. A new resource for finding online lectures has come to my attention: Listening to Words. The site contains a database of lectures (990 of them), which can be searched, browsed by lecturer, or by lecture location. This is a gold mine of spoken word content, people! Get downloading!

Caitlin Berrigan is an artist who's been receiving a lot of attention for a series called "Sentimental Objects in Attempts to Befriend a Virus." In one part of the series, "Viral Confections," she cast chocolate truffles from a mold of a hepatitis C virus (pictured). Caitlin contracted the virus during a blood transfusion she received when she was an infant. On her site she explains:
These designer chocolates illustrate the inventive protein structure of the hepatitis C virus. A plaster model of the virus... READ ON
Because product-liability lawsuits are ever on the rise in the U.S. -- as well as the awards given those litigious plaintiffs by juries, which averaged $1.8 million in 2005 -- so too do the warning labels on our products grow more absurd.

If you've caught our recent references to The Temptation of St. Anthony and the oeuvre of James Ensor, you'll know we've been on something of a Disturbing Old Paintings kick of late. But Ensor's dancing skeletons and Anthony's nightmare creatures have nothing on Pieter Bruegel the Elder's Dulle Griet (short for Dulle Griet, Who is Looking at the Mouth of Hell, AKA Mad Meg). Whence this nightmarish vision? Assuming Bruegel wasn't snacking on tainted rye while painting, he probably took a cue from a... READ ON

It's not just a fictional superhero-retardant anymore.

I know it sounds like a belated April Fools joke, but apparently astronomers announced yesterday that they've discovered a real planet 120 trillion miles outside our solar system that very well might be "habitable."

Steph, DH Jason (1-1-11), DS Owen (10-3-03) and DS Kai (10-13-11)
You must have chaos within you to give birth to a dancing star.
what do you think is normal for homework in kindergarten?
my 5 yr old started this year, on her 3rd week. they expect my non-reading 5 yr old to do 3 hours of homework a week. DH sits down and helps her, but he complains all the time about how hard it is for kids who cant read to do the work. and now they are sending home literary packets on top of it. i might sound like a whiner but we dont have the time to do her homework with her on top of all the other stuff we have. how many other Kindergartners out there have this much homework?
Katreena, 39 year old Alaskan Mama to 1 and 1
Not only does the content sound completely unnecessary, it also sounds like they want the parents to do their job. If it were possible, you might as well home school. 3 hours per week! that's absolutely ridiculous, especially for a 5 year old who isn't even technically in school yet. Maybe it's a sign that I'm really old, but last I checked, Kindergarten is all about hands on play learning, not pages of homework.
my DH totally agrees with you. he thinks they want him to do their job.
i dont HS b/c i am disabled and have DD with DD2 on the way. DSD does great in school, loves it and wants to do her homework. she is bright too. but she cant read yet and writes everything backward. i just dont think she is ready for this stuff. they want her to circle all of the letters (which she can do), and then they want her to write rhyming words which she cant do. half of the homework is what DH considers the teachers job. we will be talking to her about it too. it takes 15 min 3 nights a week. they are adding a literacy packet where she has to read a book and then write words down. that is another 15 min 3 nights a week. so 6 nights a week.
ps, 15 minutes, times 6 is an hour and a half, not three hours. I can't say that 1.5hrs a week to devote towards concept reinforcement and reading to your child is excessive at all.

Produced by Daniel Lorca with RedRazorFilms & Angeles Ferragut Director: Violetta D'Agata Cinematography: Andrew Ravani From the album, 'The Stars Are Indifferent To Astronomy,' available now on iTunes: http://bit.ly/nadasurfstars. "Waiting For Something" is a personal journey through interlocking time in the lives of several interconnected characters - all of whom share in the mystique and beauty of their Spanish island, Ibiza. Some journeys help us find who we are, some help us discover who we wish we were, and others help us define our relationships. These various journeys are explored in parallel through the video director's personal interpretation of the song, the band's casual island performances and an ephemeral visual absorption of Ibiza's intimate wintertime identity. The journey of five characters at different times in their lives weave through the personal performances of Nada Surf around Ibiza - passing through some of the most beautiful and little known places around the island. "Waiting For Something" is an attempt to step out of time and experience the delicate beauty of existence without the pressures of modernity. About the Locations: Na Xamena: The Na Xemena Heliport was constructed in 1981 to bring royal, famous and anonymous clients who would then be shuttled to the 5-star Hotel Hacienda through the woods, without having to go through the airport. It has since fallen into disrepair. Cap Es Falco: You'll find Cap D'es Falco tucked away at the end of a long and bumpy dirt track in the protected national park of Ses Salines. Being hard-to-find makes the journey to the home of eternal sunsets and breathtaking atmosphere even more worthwhile. Roundabout E-10: The roundabout is representative of the eternal cycle of life - with Nada Surf stranded in the middle. Centenary OAK: The Centenary Oak is a force of nature rising and spreading from the fertile ground of Ibiza - hidden in the north of the island where only a select few know of its whereabouts. It invites children and the imaginatively adventurous to climb its branches and share in its mystery.

Pandora should revive Rdio as pay-for-what-you-want streaming
Music listeners are cheapskates. Few will pay Spotify or Apple $10 a month even to stream almost every song ever. Meanwhile, radio services like Pandora hardly scrape by on the meager ad rates after they pay out royalties. So if Pandora wants to resuscitate the battered corpse of Rdio it acquired for $75 million last year, it can't just be another unlimited monthly subscription. The… Read More

ORLANDO, Fla. — Justin Rose started out as another guy in Tiger Woods' group Thursday at Bay Hill. He wound up in the lead.
Rose put on a clinic with the putter and ran off four straight birdies late in his round for a 7-under-par 65, giving him a two-shot lead after the opening round of the Arnold Palmer Invitational.
Woods had two sloppy bogeys from greenside bunkers and didn't hit it as well as he did when he won Doral two weeks ago. But he made enough key par saves and manhandled the par 5s to scratch out a 69, a reasonable start as he tries to win Bay Hill for the eighth time and return to No. 1 in the world.
It was only the sixth time in 31 rounds at Bay Hill that Rose broke 70.

"If you had said I would shoot a 65 on the range this morning, I would have probably said, 'How many holes have I played?' And that didn't change much," Rose said. "The first five, six holes out there were a grind."
John Huh had a chance to catch him late in the afternoon, but needing a birdie on the final hole, he found a fairway bunker on No. 9 and took bogey for a 67. John Rollins and Brad Fritsch were at 68.
Also in the group at 69 with Woods were Ryo Ishikawa of Japan, Nick Watney, Sean O'Hair and Bill Haas, who bogeyed his last two holes.
Woods played the par 5s in 5 under, bringing his career total at Bay Hill to 118 under par.
"I got a lot out of this round, and I threw away a few shots as well," Woods said.
British Open champion Ernie Els played with Rose and Woods and disappeared quickly, shooting a 75.
Former Husky Richard H. Lee shot a 73. Kyle Stanley of Gig Harbor had a 77. Ryan Moore from Puyallup shot a 78.

I guess reality is the illness. There are many people on this forum and throughout the world taking sides and voicing their hatred for the opposite country.
I might remind you, I haven't voiced my opinion about the situation. It's terrible you jump to conclusions about people.
It doesn't matter what you say to justify this. Look at the title of your post. "Rooting" as if it is a game. The people who are unable to think critically will see this as a game, and there are a hell of a lot of them walking around.
People are dying on both sides and you treat it as a halftime show. Justify it all you want, just look at the title.

Ah, I see.
So Shamash is one of the elder gods (like Nodens & Bast)...
For a moment I thought that the name was being used for a new lovecraftian horror (Outer god or Great Old One), which was where my disconnect between real-world and literary mythologies occurred.
Thank you for clearing things up - somewhat.
Umm... How is Shamash a Lovecraftian deity?
Isn't Shamash the Akkadian-Babylonian derivative of the ancient Sumerian god Utu (the god of the sun, order & justice)??
Note: I haven't looked at the product itself, nor am I trying to discredit/criticise it (haven't read it, so...). It was just unexpected disconnect when I first read which gods were included...
Other than that, keep making great products!

...Also, since someone talked about it way earlier, Japanese tend to go for dramatic trailers in general when it comes to animation rather than comedy. Not sure why exactly, but I imagine they are going more for heartwarming marketing stuff rather than for laughters. Either way, its not like they in general consider animation more adult from what I understand
Probably because many seem to forget that humor does not always translate well across unrelated languages, let alone different cultures...
Most of my Japanese friends did not find the movie nearly as funny as many westerners have. Doesn't mean that they didn't enjoy the movie - they do think it is cute!
So rather opt for a dramatic trailer than a humorous one if you're hoping to get people who are not native English-speakers &/or not western (particularly American) in outlook to watch the movie.
In general.

Sorry to necro an old thread but, would this book be the original to the Darklands Revisited?
Not really.
This book gives an overview of the geography, adventure sites/hooks, civilisations and such of the Darklands.
The Darklands Revisited book that's just been released is part of the Revisited line, which deals with a selection of 10 monsters/races and then does "ecology-style" chapters on each (complete with a statted example). Of course, new information about specific places or aspects of the Darklands might be mentioned, but only in context of the races/monsters featured.
Hope that helps.
BTW Into the Darklands is a good book!
Carry on!
I found this bestiary (B5) a lot more useful/ inspiring than the previous one (B4), TBH.
I base this on the number of monsters I use (directly or adapted) from each bestiary. And no, mythic rules has nothing to do with it: those monsters with mythic are among the more interesting monsters in Bestiary 4...
What I particularly liked from Bestiary 5 was how the seven demideity-level Manasaputra were mostly variant spellings of the Amesha Spentas of Zoroastrianism! :D
Nicely done! (^_')=b
Carry on!

I can't wait to find who all 15 deities will be.
Well... Unless things change through development, I *think* James Jacobs mentioned that all the deities that each got half a page in Inner Sea Gods (but excluding Razmir) will be covered (13 in all), plus Apsu and Dahak.
Of course, things could change before the release date next year, so...
Looking forward to finding out, anyways!

Actually actually, it says: "...caligni dark folk, deep one hybrids, plant-bodied ghorans, and simian orang-pendaks"
The description seems to pluralise all of the entries listed ("folk" is already pluralised), so I wouldn't necessarily get my hopes up that there are multiple deep one hybrids statted up...
There could be! But not based on what was cited as evidence for it in your post... Sorry. :(
We can only hope!

Is this the origin of the alternate "spelling" (i.e. obvious misspelling) of Lolth "used" in Menzoberranzan (Lloth -- because these drow were originally rebels ...or something)?

Q: Keeping on theme, where in the Inner Sea would you locate something like the La Brea Tar Pits?
I suppose the Lands of the Mammoth Lords could be a possibility... Or, perhaps more specifically, along its shared border with the Worldwound?
Thanking you for your reply.

Casmaron. Specifically an island (or more?) to the south(?) that is associated with Casmaron (much like Hermea is part of Astivan, which is the continent to the north of the Inner Sea, i.e. the northern half of the Inner Sea Region).
So, of Casmaron, we're getting Iblydos & Vudra.
<edit> ninja'ed by Kalindlara! :P
Q: Will there a table-like appendix (or something of the sort) that collects all the 'most important' (or interesting!) data for each (sub)race, including information like "most prevalent/common in...", "most likely to worship...", "most common languages known (up to 3)", "most common alignment", etc. (and not just 'crunchy' information like racial stat bonuses & such) in this book?
Sort of like what done for Inner Sea Gods? And kinda like that given in Races of Faerûn... Although perhaps in an easier-to-absorb-at-a-glance format? (Again, like Inner Sea Gods.)
Such a table would, at the very least, be a useful summary on the various races, rather than having to read through a paragraph of text that might, for space reasons, not even include 'equal' information for every race, particularly the less common and obscure ones.
And even if such a table couldn't include all relevant information about the different races found in the Inner Sea, it could be a means of presenting relatively detailed information on even obscure races/subraces in a rather succinct manner.
Looking forward to this product regardless.
Carry on!
Yeah, I might've repeated the same points above... It's late where I'm at! :p

Granted, the five monsters mentioned in the product description (strix, gillman, centaur, ogrekin & charau-ka) aren't necessarily confirmed... Or, at least, that seems to be the general feeling from the posts in its product discussion thread.
Of course, it could all be a hypothetical example on your part (& I'm just speculating ;p ), BUT...

Romantic Comedy A Midsummer Night's Dream From Shakespeare
Our Price
Full Price
There's no better season to enjoy Shakespeare's beloved and enchanting comedy, as The Queens Players perform this whimsical story of romance, mischief and magic. A Midsummer Night's Dream follows four young lovers into the woods on a midsummer's night as they become the unwitting victims in a lover's quarrel between the king and queen of faeries. When a group of local rustics rehearsing a play in the forest also gets caught up in the madness, the comical snarl of spells seems impossible to sort out. But with fairies and sprites all around, it just takes a little more magic and, as Puck puts it, "all is mended."
