[h=1]Air Force: 34 nuclear missile officers implicated in cheating scandal[/h]

Since they had to cheat to pass the test, I guess that means they really don't know what they're supposed to know, to do their job. That's not very reassuring is it?

Incredible Study -- DNA Transfers Memories & Stores Information
Using olfactory molecular specificity, we examined the inheritance of parental traumatic exposure, a phenomenon that has been frequently observed, but not understood.
We subjected F0 mice to odor fear conditioning before conception and found that subsequently conceived F1 and F2 generations had an increased behavioral sensitivity to the F0-conditioned odor, but not to other odors.
When an odor (acetophenone) that activates a known odorant receptor (Olfr151) was used to condition F0 mice, the behavioral sensitivity of the F1 and F2 generations to acetophenone was complemented by an enhanced neuroanatomical representation of the Olfr151 pathway.
Bisulfite sequencing of sperm DNA from conditioned F0 males and F1 naive offspring revealed CpG hypomethylation in the Olfr151 gene. In addition, in vitro fertilization, F2 inheritance and cross-fostering revealed that these transgenerational effects are inherited via parental gametes.
Our findings provide a framework for addressing how environmental information may be inherited transgenerationally at behavioral, neuroanatomical and epigenetic levels.

[h=1]Has the Sun gone to sleep?[/h]
17 January 2014 Last updated at 05:57 GMT
Scientists are saying that the Sun is in a phase of "solar lull" - meaning that it has fallen asleep - and it is baffling them.
History suggests that periods of unusual "solar lull" coincide with bitterly cold winters.
Rebecca Morelle reports for BBC Newsnight on the effect this inactivity could have on our current climate, and what the implications might be for global warming.

FACT - HUBGFE has had more people browsing it's Lobby, than any other review board across Canada of which I am a member has had viewing their lounge/lobby/discussion forum, every time I've checked during the last 48 hours!
We must be doing something right. Hmmmmmm
Ya team!!

In Lebanon, men are legally allowed to have sex with animals, but the animals must be female. Having sexual relations with a male animal is punishable by death. (Like that makes sense)
In Bahrain, a male doctor may legally examine a woman’s genitals, but is prohibited from looking directly at them during the examination. He may only see their reflection in a mirror. (Do they look different reversed?)
There are men in Guam whose full-time job is to travel the countryside and deflower young virgins, who pay them for the privilege of having sex for the first time.
Reason: under Guam law, it is expressly forbidden for virgins to marry. (Let’s just think for a minute; is there any job anywhere else in the world that even comes close to this?)
In Hong Kong, a betrayed wife is legally allowed to kill her adulterous husband, but may only do so with her bare hands.
The husband’s illicit lover, on the other hand, may be killed in any manner desired. (Ah! Justice!)
Topless saleswomen are legal in Liverpool, England – but only in tropical fish stores. (But of course!)
In Cali, Colombia, a woman may only have sex with her husband, and the first time this happens, her mother must be in the room to witness the act. (Makes one shudder at the thought.)
In Santa Cruz, Bolivia, it is illegal for a man to have sex with a woman and her daughter at the same time. (I presume this was a big enough problem that they had to pass this law?).

Did you know you can get pulled over for having an air freshener dangling from your rearview mirror?
It's true, and now one local man is filing a complaint over it.
Ricardo Kerns, of Oxon Hill, Md., told News4's Darcy Spencer that a D.C. police officer pulled him over on 1st Street SW because he had an air freshener hanging on his rear-view mirror.
Kerns said he didn't allow the officer to search his vehicle, but he ended up with a $35 ticket for "objects hanging as to obstruct view."
He also received an $800 fine for driving without proper insurance and failure to prove he had insurance. He said he does have insurance, but he was driving a new car and couldn't show proof.
D.C. Police tell us it is a violation to have an air freshener on your rear view mirror, and you can be ticketed for it.

The latest data from NASA shows that the trends in temperatures across the globe over the last decade and a half appear to be lower than they were for the previous decade, showing that “global warming” still continues to be stopped in its tracks. That’s not to say that there wasn’t individual years where temperatures were above average, however over the course of time they’ve remained
Gavin Schmidt, a climatologist with NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies, said that “We’ve been looking at this in separate work and partially it seems to be a function of internal variability in the system, so the fact is that we’ve had more La Nina-like conditions over the last few years compared to earlier on in the 2000s or in the late 1990s.”
