Magnetic effect of ocean flow revealed 19:00 09 January 03 NewScientist.com news service Tiny magnetic fields created by ocean tides have been mapped globally for the first time, after researchers filtered out the signal from satellite data. Improving the technique so that the magnetic fields created by all the ocean's motions can be picked out would provide a valuable new way to track global ocean circulation and climate change. It would be especially useful for monitoring deep water currents, as these cannot be seen by the current measurements of water colour or wave height. This is possible - at least...

"It...

The revolt of the sixties flower-powered children has turned our world upside down. Amazingly, that revolt, largely waged against an authoritarian anything, including institutions such as family, religion, the military, and not least, government, now has evolved into an advocacy for a more intrusive and all encompassing government under the guise of compassion. This kind of irrationality has become pervasive in contemporary American culture among the politically correct. The psychologist, John Rosemond has said that young children cannot differentiate between needs and wants; between superstition and logical thinking. Those two states merge in the child's mind as a unified sense...

JOSEPH SOBRAN THE LIBERAL THEORY OF CAUSATION WASHINGTON -- Martin Luther King's "dream" has become America's nightmare. Ever since the Civil Rights movement began blaming white Americans for the sufferings of blacks, black crime -- especially black-on-white crime -- has exploded. Whatever King and his ilk intended, black thugs across the country got the message that they could murder, rape and rob with some covert sympathy from black leaders and white liberals. It's high time the black leadership took responsibility for the Willie Hortons they have spawned. If you buy this argument, you should have no trouble buying the argument...

It appears the usual end of the month window dressing routine may have played a role in the market's recent rebound. And this week's economic data has begun to show a creeping weakness in the nation's economy. These initial signs of weakness, while perhaps priced in over the short run, provide a good example of how markets react when the reality fails to live up to investors' hopes or expectations. The universally rosy expectations for economic growth in light of the Nasdaq bubble burst and the terrorist attacks of September 11 continue to illustrate investors' willingness to suspend disbelief --...
