		<description><![CDATA[      No, this is not about the popular TV series by the same name. Nor is it about the war in Iraq. This lens is about an area the size of Massachusetts which spreads across the Gulf Of Mexico (our country’s gulf coast) from Texas to Florida. This area, dubbed “The Dead Zone” by biologists, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[      In one of my favorite books, author Tom Robbins makes a case for a way to promote longevity which doesn’t require vitamins or supplements of any kind. In “The Jitterbug Perfume” he follows the 1000 year life of King Alabar during the 10 centuries prior to the 21st. During feudal times it was customary [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[     There has been an enormous amount of progress made since Watson and Crick first discovered the double helix structure of DNA in 1958. The original and deceptively simple version held that genes encoded proteins in our cells. These proteins, in turn, did the work necessary to keep an organism alive. At that time it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[     After the E-Coli /Spinach disaster of 2006 which caused several deaths and many severe illnesses in over half the states, little has been heard. However, the repercussions are still reverberating throughout the farming community. In a typical display of overkill farmers have been subjected to hoards of auditors. Among their duties these auditors roam [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[     A recent article in Science News discussed the latest satellite used to measure earth&#8217;s ice sheets. To calibrate the altitude measuring instruments on board the satellite the scientists use a salt flat in Bolivia. This salt flat was determined by previous tests to be flat over an area approximately 25 miles wide by 30 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Imagine a black hole, if you can. There is one or more in every galaxy. These cosmic sized vacuum cleaners suck everything in their neighborhood down a funnel much like water going down the drain. As matter enters the vortex it’s structure becomes more and more compressed.
This is possible because matter primarily consists of empty [...]]]></description>

Doesn&#8217;t progress in mathmatics or science depend on this very principle? For example, lets look at the degree of accuracy that has been developed in the scientific community, which [...]]]></description>

After all, they are responsible for the fertility of a large percentage of crop plants throughout the world. Or how about the ice caps? When they are gone we will under go two (at least) major social [...]]]></description>
