IRISH EXAMNER - Obama pays tribute to Boston, Apr 18, 2013


"President Barack Obama declared “there is a piece of Boston in me” as he paid tribute to a city shaken by what he has called an act of terror. He said: “Every one of us stands with you.” Mr Obama addressed an interfaith service in the aftermath of Monday’s twin blasts that killed three and injured more 170 people at the finish line of the Boston Marathon. He said a day of beauty was shattered when a celebration became a tragedy. He said Boston gathered “to reaffirm that the spirit of this city is undaunted”. He declared: “You will run again!” Of the perpetrator, he said: “We will find you.” Earlier Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said the FBI wants to speak to two men seen in at least one video from the marathon but she said she wasn’t calling them suspects. Without providing details of the men’s appearance or what the video shows, Ms Napolitano told the House Homeland Security Committee today that “there is some video that raised the question” of two men the FBI would like to interview but said she wouldn’t describe them as suspects."

‘NATONAL POST - Star-factory’ discovered at the beginning of the universe, Apr 18, 2013

Arp 220 appears to be a single, odd-looking galaxy, but is in fact a nearby example of the aftermath of a collision between two spiral galaxies.
"NASA, the European Space Agency (ESA) and researchers at Caltech have found what they believe to be a massive “star factory,” an early galaxy that produced stars when the rest of the galaxies in the universe were still just clouds of dust. “The first galaxies were small, then eventually merged together to form the behemoths we see in the present universe,” writes NASA’s Whitney Clavin in a post about the discovery. ”Those smaller galaxies produced stars at a modest rate, and only later  — when the universe was a couple of billion years old — did the vast majority of larger galaxies begin to form and accumulate enough gas and dust to become prolific star factories. Indeed, astronomers have observed that these star factories, called starburst galaxies, became prevalent a couple of billion years after the big bang.”"

"(Reuters) - Rescuers worked in cold rain on Thursday to find survivors amid the rubble of houses destroyed in a fiery explosion at a Texas fertilizer plant filled with hazardous chemical tanks. The death toll in West, Texas ranged from five to 15 people and was likely to change as rescuers went from house to house along the burned-out streets after the West Fertilizer Co. blew up on Wednesday night, said Sgt. William Patrick Swanton of the police department in nearby Waco. The cause of the fire and explosion, which occurred just before 8 p.m. and injured more than 160 people, was not known. Officials said no evidence of foul play had been found. The U.S. Chemical Safety Board, a federal agency charged with investigating industrial chemical accidents, was on the scene, as was the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives."
