Neutron beam observed 13 times at crippled Fukushima nuke plant
Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Wednesday it has observed a neutron beam, a kind of radioactive ray, 13 times on the premises of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant after it was crippled by the massive March 11 quake-tsunami disaster. TEPCO, the operator of the nuclear plant, said the neutron beam measured about 1.5 kilometers southwest of the plant's No. 1 and 2 reactors over three days from March 13 and is equivalent to 0.01 to 0.02 microsieverts per hour and that this is not a dangerous level.

Military indoctrinated on gays kissing, behavior
Four branches of the military have begun sending training material to 2.2 million active and reserve troops as a prelude to opening the ranks to gays, with instructions on, for example, what to do if an officer sees two male Marines kissing in a shopping mall. Key themes are that sexual orientation will no longer be a bar to service, that all service members must respect each other, and that the partners of gay troops will not receive the benefits of heterosexual spouses.

Gold near record, silver tops $37 on safehaven bid
Gold rose to within a whisker of its all-time high Wednesday, as record low U.S. new home sales stirred talk of extended central banks’ accommodative policies, and a possible collapse of Portugal’s government rekindled euro zone debt worries. Bullion rose 0.6% to just short of its record US$1,444.40 an ounce set on March 7, rebounding over 4% in the last eight sessions amid safe-haven buying and ongoing Western air strikes on Libya. Political unrest in other Arab countries also underpinned gold as Yemen’s president offered to step down by year...

Donald Trump presses President Obama for birth certificate on 'The View'
Donald Trump is demanding President Obama prove he was born in the United States. "I want him to show his birth certificate. I want him to show his birth certificate," he shouted at the ladies of “The View.” "There's something on that birth certificate that he doesn't like." The possible 2012 candidate said Obama was “probably” born in America, but he said he was still skeptical of his childhood. "If you go back to my first grade, my kindergarten, people remember me. Nobody from those early years remembers him," Trump said. "If you're going to be...

AT least 75 people were killed when a strong earthquake struck Burma, officials said today, with fears that the toll would rise as news filtered through from remote areas still cut off. Tremors were felt as far away as Bangkok, almost 800km from the epicentre, Hanoi and parts of China when the earthquake hit late yesterday, which the US Geological Survey (USGS) measured at magnitude 6.8.

Dangerous breach suspected at quake-stricken Japan nuclear plant
Suspicions of breach at Fukushima nuclear plant raised when two workers waded into water 10,000 time more radioactive than normal and suffered skin burns. A suspected breach in the reactor core at one unit of a stricken Fukushima nuclear plant could mean more serious radioactive contamination, Japanese officials said Friday, revealing what may prove a major setback in the mission to bring the leaking plant under control.

/Stink bug population spreading across USA
Stink bugs, the smelly scourge of the mid-Atlantic, are hitch-hiking and gliding their way across the country. Officially known as the brown marmorated stink bug, sightings of the pest have been reported in 33 states, an increase of eight states since last fall. "I would say people now regard them as an out-of-control pest," says Kim Hoelmer, a research entomologist at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Newark, Del. The National Pest Management Association warns homeowners this week that the bugs' growing populations are likely to make...
Scientists blown away by rising wind speeds
Wind speeds and wave heights over the world's oceans have been steadily increasing for the past quarter of a century, a new long-term study shows. The researchers at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne say the trend could also have an effect on the transfer of energy between the sea and the atmosphere - one of the great unknowns in climate change calculations. The study, published today in Science Express online, uses satellite altimeter data taken from 1985 to 2008 to show wind speeds over the oceans have been steadily...

DURHAM, N.C. — When Chad Holtz lost his old belief in hell, he also lost his job. The pastor of a rural United Methodist church in North Carolina wrote a note on his Facebook page supporting a new book by Rob Bell, a prominent young evangelical pastor and critic of the traditional view of hell as a place of eternal torment for billions of damned souls. Two days later, Holtz was told complaints from church members prompted his dismissal from Marrow's Chapel in Henderson. "I think justice comes and judgment will happen, but I don't think that...
