Devil's Tower

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It is a most improbable mountain, sticking up a thousand feet in the air
 above the surrounding valley like some giant, prehistoric tree-stump. 
Native Americans from ancient times designated it a sacred place. 
Yearly, thousands of tourists come to gawk at its unusual shape. The 
name of this strange geological formation is Devil's Tower.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Devil's Tower rises 1,267 feet above the nearby Belle Fourche River. 
What makes the mountain so striking is its sharp, near-vertical cliffs 
with regular, furrows and flattened top.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
During the age of the dinosaurs, this area was once under a shallow sea.
 Over a period of millions of years, sediment was deposited on the floor
 of this sea and this eventually turned it to sedimentary rock such as 
sandstone, shale and siltstone. At the end of the dinosaurs age 65 
million years ago, pressures from within the earth forced the land 
upward. These pressures created the nearby Black Hills and Rocky 
Mountains. The pressure also forced molten rock toward the surface at 
the location where the tower now stands. What scientists cannot agree on
 is whether this molten rock ever made its way to the surface. If it 
did, then Devil's Tower is probably the remains of an ancient volcano. 
The formation as we see it would be called a "volcanic plug."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A volcanic plug is formed when a volcano becomes extinct and the molten 
rock in tube that carried the magma from deep in the earth to the crater
 of the mountain cools and becomes solid igneous rock. Usually the rock 
in the tube is much tougher than the rest of the mountain and as the 
wind, rain and snow erode the mountain away, the plug becomes exposed. 
One well-known example of a volcanic plug is Ship Rock in New Mexico 
which towers 1,700 feet above the surrounding plain.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Most of the evidence suggests that Devil's Tower isn't the remains of an
 extinct volcano, however. There is no trace in the surrounding 
countryside of other geological phenomena that might be associated with a
 volcano such as ash or lava flows.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
A more likely theory is that the strangely-shaped mountain is a 
laccolith. A laccolith is an intrusion of hot magma from deep within the
 earth that never reaches the surface. It pushes up a bulge of 
sedimentary rock above it, but no caldera or crater is formed. As the 
molten rock cools and the soft sedimentary rock of the bulge is worn 
away, the harder igneous rock is exposed. If this is the case the top of
 the tower probably became visible between one and two million years 
ago.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The tower itself is composed of phonolite porphyry, a gray or greenish 
igneous rock with crystals of feldspar embedded within it. As the hot 
rock cooled, eight-sided vertical columns formed. As these columns 
continued to cool they shrank and pulled away from each other, making 
the furrow marks that run vertically down the tower from the top.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As the land surrounding the tower continues to erode, more of the bottom
 part of the tower will be exposed. At the same time, however, the tower
 is not immune to erosion itself and is slowly wearing away. The 
boulders strewn around the base are remnants of this singular formation 
that have fallen from it over time.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The first successful climb of Devil's Tower was in 1893. It was done 
using a series of ladders held to the mountain by pegs driven into some 
of the vertical cracks running between the columns. William Rogers, a 
rancher, ascended the ladder for the first "official" climb on July 4th 
of that year. Though the ladder has become unusable, portions of it can 
still be seen by visitors walking the trail that circles the base of the
 tower.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Climbers still ascend the tower, but use free climbing techniques and 
safety ropes secured with steel wedges hammered into cracks in the 
rocks. The installation of permanent pitons are not allowed so that 
damage to the rock face can be avoided. The mountain is still sacred to 
several Northern Plains tribes, and The National Park Service, which 
administers the site, promotes a voluntary ban on climbing the tower in 
June when Native American ceremonies are most prevalent.<br />

During the 1970s, when Turkmenistan was part of the USSR, Soviet 
geologists were sent into the desert to explore for natural gas, which 
can often be detected seeping through the sand. While drilling in one 
such spot, the geologists happened upon a large, cavernous space full of
 poisonous gas which promptly swallowed their equipment. Hoping to burn 
off the excess gas, perhaps to make it possible to descend into the 
crater, the geologists set it ablaze and 35 years later, it's still 
burning.</div>

Magnetic Man - Liew Thow Lin

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Liew Thow Lin is known as the "Magnetic Man" of Malaysia, because of his incredible ability to stick metal objects to his body.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After a deep medical study, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) lecturer
 Nasrul Humaimi Mahmood said this ability was probably associated with 
"suction properties in his skin." Professor Dr. Mohamed Amin Alias, from
 UTM's electrical engineering faculty in Johor, agreed.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
After seeing Liew perform, the professor did research on the matter, and
 decided, "His skin has a special suction effect that can help metal 
stick to it." "These powers are not an illusion," he said, "That is why 
his two sons and two grandchildren also have the magnetic-like ability.</div>

 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They have his genes." Dr. Atsusi Kono, former chief physician at the Djo
 Si Idai Hospital in Tokyo, was so impressed with a Russian he saw doing
 this stunt, that he commented: "There is absolutely no doubt that the 
objects stick as if their bodies were magnetic."</div>

Dr. Friedbert Karger of the Max Planck Institute in Germany, in January 
1997, investigated another "magnetic man" named Miroslaw Magola who was 
born in Poland in the 1960s, and was able to demonstrate the ability "to
 pick up a cup from the floor without touching it, and to control its 
suspension in mid-air."</div>

World's Tiniest Lizards Has Been Discovered In Madagascar

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of the world's tiniest lizards has been discovered by keen-eyed 
researchers in Madagascar. The miniature chameleon, Brookesia micra, 
reaches a maximum length of just 29mm. German scientists also found a 
further three new species in the north of the island. The lizards were 
limited to very small ranges and scientists are concerned they could be 
at risk from habitat disturbance. The discovery is reported in the 
journal PLoS ONE.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The research team, led by Dr Frank Glaw from the Zoologische 
Staatssammlung in Munich, have a specialist knowledge of Madagascar's 
dwarf chameleons having described other species in the past. They 
conducted fieldwork at night during the wet season in order to find the 
easily overlooked animals.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
"They mostly live in the leaf litter in the day... But at night they 
climb up and then you can spot them," said Dr Glaw, explaining that the 
animals moved up into branches to sleep. The scientists carefully 
scanned the most likely habitats with torches and headlamps to find 
roosting sites.</div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They found the smallest species on a remote limestone islet and believe it may represent an extreme case of island dwarfism.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
This phenomenon occurs when a species becomes smaller over evolutionary 
time in order to adapt to a restricted habitat such as an island.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Dr Glaw there could have been a "two-island effect" in the 
case of B. micra. "It is possible that the big island of Madagascar has 
produced the general group of dwarf chameleons and the very small island
 has produced the tiny species," he told BBC Nature.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<b>Varied but vulnerable</b></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Because the chameleons looked similar in appearance, researchers 
conducted a genetic analysis to confirm that they were indeed four 
distinct species. The genetic differences between the species were 
described as "remarkable" by team member Miguel Vences from the 
Technical University of Braunschweig, Germany. "This indicates that they
 separated from each other millions of years ago - even earlier than 
many other chameleon species," he said.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Each of the new species was restricted to a very small territory, just a
 single square kilometre for the smallest. "In Madagascar many species 
are restricted to small habitats and that makes it important to conserve
 them" said Dr Glaw. Scientists believe the small ranges of the species 
make them especially sensitive to habitat disturbance.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
B. tristis, named after the French word "triste" meaning sad, was found 
in an isolated patch of forest close to an expanding city.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The team chose thought-provoking names as an expression of their concern for the future of the island's micro-endemic species.<br />

 his friends, colleagues and pupils as models. Mr Manvelyan said he was 
surprised by the results of his efforts to photograph the human eye, 
describing them like the 'surfaces of unknown planets'</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The unnamed child suffered from a condition known as polydactyl, in 
which a person has more than five fingers per hand and five toes per 
foot. This condition can occur on its own without any other symptoms or 
underlying disease, according to the National Institutes of Health, or 
may be inherited.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
One of his hands had seven fingers and the other had eight while each 
leg has an extra 3 toes. Four fingers on one hand and three on the other
 were fused. In this case, the boy appeared to have central polydactyl, 
where an extra digit of a long or ring finger is concealed in a web 
between the adjoining normal fingers.</div>

Chinese Boy Born With No Eyes

The boy was born with smooth skin in the sockets of where his eyes

<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When his father Madamihan and mother Salamu took him to a hospital in 
Urumqi, capital of Xinjiang in China, they were offered a glimmer of 
hope: Marwanijung actually had a left eye nestled underneath the skin of
 his left socket. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Doctors had told Marwanijung's parents, both 26, that their son loved 
playing with the flashlight because he actually had a left eye, and that
 it was blocked by skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tragically, doctors at the Army 474 Hospital are now saying that 
Marwanijung left eye is too sensitive for exposure and, and even if 
surgery uncovered his left eyeball, he would still not be able to see 
because his eye has no lens. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
 </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Instead, they suggested that Marwanijung go under artificial eye installation surgery once he reaches 16 years old.</div>

McMurdo Dry Valley, Place That Looks Similar To Pluto Surface

McMurdo Dry Valley, the largest snow-free region in Antarctica located 
on the shore of McMurdo Sound, 2,200 miles (3,500 km) due south of New 
Zealand. The region is a windswept, frozen desert whose rugged terrain 
looks as if it belongs on Pluto rather than our planet. Covering 9,300 
square miles (15,000 square kilometers), its valleys were carved by 
glaciers that long ago retreated, leaving in their wake a broken layer 
of boulders, gravel and pebbles, all of which have been worn down by the
 harsh weather and sorted by the strong winds. </div>

The Giant's Causeway, The Polygonal Rock Formations In Ireland

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">
<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Giant's Causeway in northeast coast of Northern Ireland, is an area 
of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient 
volcanic eruption.  The majority of the columns are hexagonal, but some 
have four, five, eight or even ten sides, measuring approximately 12 
inches wide. The tops of the columns form stepping stones that lead from
 the cliff foot and disappear under the sea.  The Giant’s Causeway has 
often been described as the Eighth Wonder of the World and was declared 
as Ireland’s first World Heritage site by UNESCO in 1986.</div>

Sixty-one million years ago, geological activity caused a series of 
volcanic eruptions, and molten lava flowed from cracks in the ground, 
causing valleys to burn and killing all vegetation. Then the basalt lava
 rapidly cooled, which caused it to shrink and crack into even polygonal
 shaped rocks (blocks). This in turn caused column-type joints to form 
beneath the earth. Fifty-eight million years ago, another series of 
volcanic eruptions produced a lava flow with a different chemical 
composition. When this lava cooled, it did not form columns as definite 
and staunch; it cloaked the well-defined, durable column structures 
beneath the surface. At the end of the Ice Age, 15,000 years ago, the 
frozen ocean chiseled its way past the high basalt elevations, eroding 
the shoreline and unveiling the cliff of columns, which resulted in the 
Giant’s Causeway.</div>

This great earthquake and ensuing tsunami took 128 lives and caused 
about $311 million USD in property loss. The earthquake damage was heavy
 in many towns, including Anchorage, which was about 75 miles (120 
kilometers) northwest of the epicenter. The quake ruptured along a 
seismically active fault between the North American and Pacific plates. 
The shaking lasted about 3 minutes.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
This quake was the third largest earthquake in the world, and the 
largest since the 1964 earthquake in Prince William Sound, Alaska. In 
total, 227,898 people were killed or missing and presumed dead and about
 1.7 million people were displaced by the earthquake and subsequent 
tsunami in 14 countries in Southeast Asia and East Africa.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The tsunami caused more casualties than any other in recorded history,

<div style="text-align: justify;">
On March 11, a magnitude 9.0 quake triggered a tsunami that killed an 
estimated 29,000 people and damaged some nuclear reactors. This 
earthquake is the largest ever recorded in Japan.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

Aftershocks continue to rock the island of Honshu. The aftershocks

<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The quake was caused by thrust faulting near the Japan Trench, the 
boundary between the Pacific and North America tectonic plates. Thrust 
faulting happens when one tectonic plate dives under another. In this 
case, the Pacific plate is diving under the North America plate.<br />

The world's first recorded magnitude 9.0 earthquake struck off the east 
coast of Kamchatka in 1952. The quake generated a 43-foot tsunami (13 m)
 locally. The tsunami rocked Crescent City, Calif., which was also hit 
hard by the recent Japan earthquake.<br />

No lives were lost, but in Hawaii, property damage was estimated at up

A catastrophic magnitude 8.8 earthquake ruptured off the coast of 
Ecuador and Colombia and generated a strong tsunami that killed 500 to 
1,500 people. The tsunami spread along the coast of Central America, and

The earthquake occurred along the boundary between the Nazca Plate and 
the South American Plate. It hit more than 100 years ago, so reports are
 spotty, but according the USGS, witnesses reported a huge rush of water
 in Honolulu Bay. All the steam and sailboats in the bay were turned 
around, and then a sudden flood tide roared inland.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Alaska had been a state for only 7 years when this huge earthquake 
triggered a tsunami of over 30 feet (10 meters). Despite its size, the 
quake caused little damage due to its remote location at the tip of the 
Aleutian Islands.<br />
<br />
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The tsunami was reported in Hawaii and spread as far away as Japan. The 
temblor was the result of the Pacific Plate diving beneath the North 
American Plate at the Alaska-Aleutian megathrust, which has been the 
location of many megathrust earthquakes.<br />

 sand volcanoes hit in the area. The quake was felt in the Sichuan and 
Yunnan Provinces of China, and as far away as Calcutta, India.</div>

The quake caused large landslides that blocked rivers. When the rivers 
finally burst through the walls of debris, waves inundated several 
villages and killed hundreds of people.</div>

This quake is commonly called the Assam-Tibet earthquake or the Assam 
earthquake, even though the epicenter was in Tibet. The quake struck at 
the intersection of the most vigorous collision of continental plates on
 the planet, where the Indian continental plate smashes into the 
Eurasian plate and dives beneath it. The slow-motion crash helped create
 the massive Himalayas.<br />
