Hawking Earth doomed

Hawking Earth doomed, Physicist Stephen Hawking said recently that humanity will not survive until the next millenium “without escaping beyond our fragile planet.” Stephen Hawking, who spent his career decoding the universe and even experienced weightlessness, is urging the continuation of space exploration — for humanity’s sake. The 71-year-old Hawking said he did not think humans would survive another 1,000 years “without escaping beyond our fragile planet.” The British cosmologist made the remarks Tuesday before an audience of doctors, nurses and employees at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he toured a stem cell laboratory that’s focused on trying to slow the progression of Lou Gehrig’s disease. Hawking was diagnosed with the neurological disorder 50 years ago while a student at Cambridge University. He recalled how he became depressed and initially didn’t see a point in finishing his doctorate. But he continued to delve into his studies. “If you understand how the universe ope

Carnival ship fails

Carnival ship fails , Continuing its transformation into little more than a live-action recreation of "The Poseidon Adventure," Carnival Cruise Lines "Fascination" ship failed a health inspection before the vessel could set sail out of Jacksonville, Fla. Inspectors for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention discovered dried food waste, flies, and even a "roach nymph" aboard the 2,056-passenger "Fascination" ship. The CDC regularly conducts random investigations on cruise ships twice every year. Judging the vessels on a scale of 1-100, any number below 86 is deemed a failing grade. The "Fascination" was given an 84. In addition to the masses of insects stowed away, the CDC report said the ship did not have an adequate amount of chlorine in its water park, that the salad bar was without sneeze guards, and that numerous "food-related" areas were without proper lighting for cleaning. "In the past five years, no Car

6.3 Japan quake but no big damage reported

6.3 Japan quake , A blasting strong earthquake shook Japan on Saturday near the southwestern city of Kobe, leaving 22 people injured, seven of them seriously - mostly elderly tripping while trying to flee, police said. No one was killed. The magnitude 6.3 quake left some homes with rooftop tiles broken and cracked walls, while goods fell off store shelves, according to the Meteorological Agency and Japanese TV news footage. The agency had earlier said the magnitude was 6, but later upgraded it. The quake was centered on Awaji Island, just south of Kobe, at a depth of 15 kilometers (9 miles). The quake was in the area where a magnitude 7.2 quake killed more than 6,400 people in 1995. TV news footage showed that some areas on the island had liquefied, a common effect of strong earthquakes. Japan is among the most quake-prone nations in the world. In March 2011, northeastern Japan was struck with a giant quake and tsunami. The agency warned there may be aftershocks for about a week.

Two-headed pig found in china may not live.

Two-headed pig , Latest news are suggesting that the born pig may not survived. A two-headed pig was born recently in China according to an NBC News report. Born in a village in the Jianxi province, the pig has two ears, one eye and two snouts. Checkout its pic below This is not the first two-headed pig born in China. In 2001, Reuters reported that a Chinese farmer showed off a piglet born with two heads and three eyes in Zhaodun village in the province of Jiangsu. LiveScience reports that the recently born two-headed pig is likely the result of an embryo splitting two separate organisms, but the process to become twins did not complete. This condition is called "axial bifurcation" and was studied in March 2013 when a two-headed bull shark was discovered. "Halfway through the process of forming twins, the embryo stops dividing." - Michael Wagner,researcher at Michigan State University According to NBC, a veterinarian reports that it is unlikely that the

$10 minimum wage

$10 minimum wage , Team of Legislators in Maryland are again debating raising the state minimum wage, this time from $7.25 to $10.00 per hour (a 38 percent increase) and indexing it to the cost of living so that future changes would be automatic, with no vote or legislative accountability required. Also included is an increase in minimum wages to employees who receive most of their compensation in tips. The bill would raise the minimum wage for tipped workers from 50 percent to 70 percent of the full minimum wage. This is motherhood and apple pie legislation. Who can be opposed to paying employees a wage that allows them to live more comfortably? If $10 an hour is good, why not require $20 an hour, or maybe $50? The answer is obvious. Markets set wages. To stay in business and keep people employed, businesses have to be competitive. The cost of wages is reflected in the price of the product or service to the consumer. When labor costs go up, employers have two choices. They can attempt

Kid Rock ‘embarrassed’

Kid Rock ‘embarrassed’ , has the Kid Rock American rapper embarrassed to be a Republican? That is what he told Rolling Stone in a new interview posted on April 10. The rocker has incorporated some unique details into his upcoming tour with Uncle Kracker and ZZ Top, but he is frustrated by some restrictions that he blames on the Republicans. What did Kid Rock have to say? Concert tours are big bucks for a lot of musicians, but Kid Rock took a different stance for his new tour. The musician wants concerts to be accessible to all fans, not just the wealthy ones. He worked out a plan so that every ticket for his upcoming concerts cost $20, and he reserved the front two rows for people to be hand-picked from the back of the venue. He also wanted rows two through 18 to be reserved for paperless ticketing. However, his approach with paperless ticketing is not legal everywhere, and that is one thing that sparks Kid Rock's embarrassment. He says that Republicans are the ones passing bills
