The Nature Conservancy Announces Launch of New Program in Mongolia

The Nature Conservancy announced the launch of a new conservation initiative to protect the globally significant grasslands of the Eastern Steppe of Mongolia. The Conservancy will share its conservation and scientific expertise to help the government of Mongolia balance conservation and economic needs. ?This program will help Mongolia to set a new standard for sustainable development,? said Stephanie Meeks, acting president and CEO of The Nature Conservancy. ?This unique effort will encompass policy initiatives with on-the-ground conservation techniques to protect more than 69 million acres of grasslands in Eastern Mongolia.?

Clipmark: Researcher Links Storytelling, Math Ability

[quote]This study suggests that building strong storytelling skills early in the preschool years may be helpful in preparing children for learning mathematics when they enter school. ''It is also a nice finding, I think, because storytelling is something every parent can easily do and foster with their children, without the need to buy any fancy toys or materials,'' said O'Neill. Given these findings, O'Neill is continuing in further studies, also funded by Science and Engineering Research Canada, to explore more precisely what aspects of storytelling are linked to aspects of mathematical ability.[/quote]
As summer looms, students at dozens of schools across the country are trying hard to be in the present moment in what is known as mindfulness training. [...] Although mindful education may seem like a New Yorker caricature of West Coast life, the school district with possibly the best experience has been Lancaster, Pa., where mindfulness is taught in 25 classes a week at eight schools. The district has a substantial poverty rate, with 75 percent of students qualifying for free lunch.
Don Herbert, who explained the wonderful world of science to young baby boomers on television in the 1950s and '60s as "Mr. Wizard" and did the same for a later generation of youngsters on the Nickelodeon cable TV channel in the 1980s, died today.
An unusual fossil-hunting team has hit upon an unusual discovery: the oldest found mushroom fossil yet, encased in amber along with a striking example of a parasite feeding upon a parasite.
There's a caustic substance common to our environment whose very presence turns iron into brittle rust, dramatically increases the risk of fire and explosion, and sometimes destroys the cells of the very organisms that depend on it for survival. This substance that makes up 21% of our atmosphere is Diatomic oxygen, more widely known as just oxygen.
Suppose we asked a group of Presidential candidates if they believed in the existence of atoms, and a third of them said "no"? That would be a truly appalling show of scientific illiteracy, would it not? Yet something like this happened a week ago during the Republican presidential debate.
Two months after astronomers discovered an extrasolar planet capable of supporting life, another team has questioned that finding and forwarded its own candidate for a second Earth--although neither world figures to become a prime vacation destination.
Some may have the illusion that science is devoid of politics. But whether we debate the efficacy of a pharmaceutical drug, the risks of electromagnetic radiation, or the potential benefit of embryonic stem cells, financial and ideological agendas are not easily set aside. As bad as political correctness may be in the humanities and social sciences
There are many theories that time travel isn't possible.But now is everything changed with new discover.You can see now how you can travel in past or future.There is a risk involved but everything is possible, even this.Many sciences approved this theory and it's going to be test very soon!
