Suggestion Box

Our Suggestion Box o' Rocks. These are samples collected on my first field trip in Oregon with Lockwood DeWitt. There are some turbedites, a nice hand sample of pillow basalt, some basalt with lovely manganese, zeolites, and gabbro. Lovely!

Thank you all for the very warm welcomes and gorgeous enthusiasm! You gave Rosetta Stones a fantastic launch.

With introductions out of the way and the furniture pretty much arranged, it?s time to get out in the field. Where would you like to go? Consider this our suggestion box.

Do we begin at the beginning, with a short course in geology? Play about with rock types? Jump in with both feet and go exploring a landscape ? and if so, what kind? Are there any news items of geological interest you?d like to investigate?

We already have more than rocks in the box. Rick, commenting over at ETEV, would like to ?figure out why limestone doesn?t taste like lime in my cerveza.? That?s something I pondered, possibly too much, as a kid. So we?ll be having a limestone day round here soon. Stock up on tequila and lime, or your preferred equivalents.

Bora said, ?I hope we?ll get to read, at least sometimes, a little bit of her science-fiction writing, or some of her poetry. Perhaps mixed in with her science.? We could do an excerpt or two, if you like. I could show you bits of the worlds I?ve built, together with a scene or so. Anyone else interested?

Malachite (nice!) says, ?A post about Mount St Helen?s would be great, too.? Can do! I?ve actually got a series started: we can just move it on over here.

I?d like Rosetta Stones to be a place where readers get a chance to choose topics. It?s really all about you guys. So throw some ideas into the box. I?ll plunge a hand in, take a topic out, and off we?ll go!

Facebook responds to Yahoo with own patent suit

NEW YORK (AP) ? Facebook is stepping up its patent dispute with Yahoo by filing its own lawsuit against the struggling Internet icon.

Facebook's lawsuit Tuesday came just weeks after Yahoo Inc. claimed that Facebook violated 10 patents covering advertising, privacy controls and social networking. Facebook denied Yahoo's allegations and accused Yahoo of violating 10 of its patents covering photo tagging, advertising, online recommendations and more.

The spat is escalating as Facebook prepares for an initial public offering of stock in the coming weeks. If all goes expected, Facebook could fetch as much as $10 billion, gaining a value of $100 billion. Yahoo, which has struggled amid competition from Google and Facebook, has a market value of about $18.3 billion.

There's no immediate threat to either company's services from the lawsuits. These disputes can take months or years to resolve and often lead to settlements in which companies agree to license patents to each other.

Facebook recently acquired 750 patents from IBM Corp. covering technologies that deal with software and networking. At the end of 2011, Facebook had just 56 U.S. patents, which was a relatively small number compared with other big tech companies. Yahoo owns more than 1,000 patents.

It was not immediately clear how many, if any, of Facebook's claims involve patents from IBM. Facebook employees, including CEO Mark Zuckerberg, are listed as inventors of two of the 10 patents. A couple of the others date back several years before Facebook's founding.

Facebook Inc., which is based in Menlo Park, Calif., filed the lawsuit in U.S. District Court in San Francisco. It is seeking a jury trial and unspecified damages, and for Yahoo's suit to be dismissed.

Facebook said it has been "irreparably harmed" by Yahoo's infringement.

"While we are asserting patent claims of our own, we do so in response to Yahoo's short-sighted decision to attack one of its partners and prioritize litigation over innovation," Ted Ullyot, Facebook's general counsel, said in a statement.

Facebook would not say whether it chose 10 claims to match Yahoo's 10 and had no comment beyond the official statement.

Yahoo, which is based in Sunnyvale, Calif., said it had just received Facebook's lawsuit. The company said the complaint appeared on its face "without merit and nothing more than a cynical attempt to distract from the weakness of its defense."

"As we have made clear from the outset, the unauthorized use of our patented technology is unacceptable and must be resolved appropriately," Yahoo said in its statement. "Other leading companies license these technologies, and Facebook must do the same or change the way it operates."

Yahoo's stock fell 28 cents to close Tuesday at $15.18.

Is The Fray's National Anthem Among All-Time Worst?

We look back at the most infamous renditions of 'The Star-Spangled Banner.'
By James Montgomery

It seems odd that relaxed-khaki rockers the Fray would inspire acrimony of any sort (unless you hate "Grey's Anatomy"), but that's exactly what's happened following their performance of the national anthem at Monday night's NCAA national championship basketball game.

To be honest, we didn't think it was that bad, but critics have been savaging the band for their jangly spin on "The Star-Spangled Banner," calling it everything from "dreadful" to "acoustic, emo and mercifully quick" ( two assessments that could equally have been applied to the actual championship game, now that we think of it).

And while they may not be fair, those criticisms automatically add the Fray to the rather lengthy list of truly terrible national anthem performances. From crotch-grabbing comediennes to winded, warbling sprinters, here's a look at some of the all-time worst. For the record, we don't think the Fray's version belongs anywhere on this list, but, hey, anytime you find yourself included alongside Steven Tyler and R. Kelly, you've got to be doing something right ... right?

Roseanne Barr
A performance so putrid we're still talking about it 20 years after the fact. In a move that was either inspired or completely insane (probably both), the San Diego Padres invited the foul-mouthed comedienne to sing the national anthem before a game, and, well, they got everything they could've expected ... and more. After screeching her way through the song, Barr was showered with boos and showed her gratitude by grabbing her crotch and spitting. Amazingly, this was a huge deal, and she was vilified in the press. Sort of makes you miss the simpler times of H.W. Bush America, doesn't it?

Carl Lewis
Hey, he's an Olympic champion — surely he can sing, right? Wrong. Lewis' gloriously off-key rendition of the anthem was so bad, people were asking him to give his medals back. As the 20th anniversary of his anthem approaches, it's difficult to pick the worst (i.e. greatest) moment: His Crayola-colored suit? The part where he cracks a note and, as the crowd jeers, declares "Uh oh! I'mma make up for it now"? Watching members of the Chicago Bulls trying (and failing) to stifle fits of laughter? Nah, you know what? We're going to go with the New Jersey Nets' 1993 warm-ups. Those things are still hilarious.

R. Kelly
Call it the Massacre at Mandalay Bay. Before a big-ticket Vegas boxing match, Mr. Robert Kelly strode to the center of the ring and delivered a delirious, step-show-ready version of the anthem. Sure, he sings it well (since R. Kelly is amazing), but as a sheer stylistic choice, well, this one was a total bomb. Not surprisingly, despite Kelly's repeated insistences, no one in the audience clapped their hands. Instead, they just booed.

Michael Bolton
Performing the anthem at Fenway Park, before the Red Sox and the Yankees met for a pivotal 2003 American League Championship game, Bolton made two key errors: One, he totally forgot the lyrics and was forced to read them off the palm of his hand (the crowd lustily booed him for the move), and two, he was Michael Bolton. In Boston. Before a Yankees game. Being from Connecticut wasn't enough to save him or this performance.

Christina Aguilera
Poor Xtina. Performing before an audience of millions at Super Bowl XLV, she fumbled pretty much everything: missing notes and screwing up lyrics (we like the part where she goes "the twilight's last reaming"). She was "devastated" by the mistakes, and since she's done the anthem so well — and so often — before, we're willing to forgive this one. Also, we love her on "The Voice."

Steven Tyler
Yowch. Tyler delivered a cringe-worthy version of the anthem before the Patriots/Ravens AFC Championship game in January, and not even his sparkly Pats scarf could save him from getting booed. It was wobbly, shouty and even a tad pitchy, dawg. Good thing he's not responsible for judging a singing competition or anything.

Which do you think is the worst anthem? Let us know in the comments!

The way that you style your hair could be contributing to hair loss. Avoid tightly pulling your hair, or using rubber bands, for very long.

Coral links ice sheet collapse to ancient 'mega flood'

ScienceDaily (Apr. 3, 2012) ? Coral off Tahiti has linked the collapse of massive ice sheets 14,600 years ago to a dramatic and rapid rise in global sea-levels of around 14 metres.

Previous research could not accurately date the sea-level rise but now an Aix-Marseille University-led team, including Oxford University scientists Alex Thomas and Gideon Henderson, has confirmed that the event occurred 14,650-14,310 years ago at the same time as a period of rapid climate change known as the B?lling warming.

The finding will help scientists currently modelling future climate change scenarios to factor in the dynamic behaviour of major ice sheets.

A report of the research is published in this week's Nature.

'It is vital that we look into Earth's geological past to understand rare but high impact events, such as the collapse of giant ice sheets that occurred 14,600 years ago,' said Dr Alex Thomas of Oxford University's Department of Earth Sciences, an author of the paper. 'Our work gives a window onto an extreme event in which deglaciation coincided with a dramatic and rapid rise in global sea levels -- an ancient 'mega flood'. Sea level rose more than ten times more quickly than it is rising now! This is an excellent test bed for climate models: if they can reproduce this extraordinary event, it will improve confidence that they can also predict future change accurately.'

During the B?lling warming high latitudes of the Northern hemisphere warmed as much as 15 degrees Celsius in a few tens of decades. The team has used dating evidence from Tahitian corals to constrain the sea level rise to within a period of 350 years, although the actual rise may well have occurred much more quickly and would have been distributed unevenly around the world's shorelines.

Dr Thomas said: 'The Tahitian coral is important because samples, thousands of years old, can be dated to within plus or minus 30 years. Because Tahiti is an ocean island, far away from major ice sheets, sea-level evidence from its coral reefs gives us close to the 'magic' average of sea levels across the globe, it is also subsiding into the ocean at a steady pace that we can easily adjust for.'

The research is part of a large international consortium, the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP), and the coral samples were obtained by drilling down to the sea floor from a ship positioned off the coast of Tahiti.

What exactly caused the B?lling warming is a matter of intense debate: a leading theory is that the ocean's circulation changed so that more heat was transported into Northern latitudes.

The new sea-level evidence suggests that a considerable portion of the water causing the sea-level rise at this time must have come from melting of the ice sheets in Antarctica, which sent a 'pulse' of freshwater around the globe. However, whether the freshwater pulse helped to warm the climate or was a result of an already warming world remains unclear.
