THE HINDU - Fidel Castro asks North Korea to avoid war, Apr 06, 2013

In this Feb. 2012 file photo, Cuba's leader Fidel Castro speaks during a meeting with intellectuals and writers at the International Book Fair in Havana.
























 "Cuban revolutionary leader Fidel Castro called Friday for long-time ally North Korea and the United States to avoid hostilities on the Korean Peninsula. “If war breaks out there, the people of both parts of the peninsula will be terribly sacrificed, without benefit to all or either of them,” he said in a column published in Cuban state media. “Now that (North Korea) has demonstrated its technical and scientific achievements, we remind her of her duties to the countries which have been her great friends, and it would be unjust to forget that such a war would particularly affect more than 70 per cent of the population of the planet.” Mr. Castro, 86, reminded the United States of its duty to avoid a clash, amid mounting tensions this year between North and South Korea."

LOS ANGELES TIMES - Jupiter moon Io's volcanic face could mask 'living' fossil, Apr 06, 2013

Jupiter Io volcanoes
"Like the offset eyes on a Picasso portrait, the volcanoes on Jupiter’s moon Io seem to be strangely shifted, according to a study by NASA and ESA scientists. Io’s clustered volcanoes seem to be lying 30 to 60 degrees eastward of where they were expected, according to a paper published this year in Earth and Planetary Science Letters. The study could shed light on the internal dynamics of Jupiter’s volcano-pocked moon. Io’s internal heat comes from the kneading it gets from Jupiter and its fellow moons. Jupiter’s massive gravity pulls on the planet, stretching it one way. Meanwhile, tugs from fellow moons Europa and Ganymede stretch it from another direction. As Io flexes, internal friction from all that distortion heats up the interior, leading to its iconic volcanoes."
