Their reporting is falling behind. Notice that Opportunity has scratched out another trench near the "gulley".

ALSO . . . they are nolonger posting all of their received pictures. I've suspected as much for some time. They used to include "offset" microscopic pictures from which 3-D pictures could be generated of their microscopic examinations. Those seem to have "dried up". Then on sol-091 they posted this press picture from Opportunitiy's pancam. It is not to be found amongst the pictures from sol-091 pan or navcam.

They ARE holding back pictures from the public.

Funding? . . . Proprietary considerations? I don't care why. I don't expect to "discover" and post "curiosities" ahead of NASA/JPL in the future.
