Temperatura di 17 gradi a Mosca, al culmine del marzo piu' caldo dal 1879 a oggi. Lo ha annunciato il quotidiano Komsomolskaia Pravda. In tutto il mese, le temperature si sono mantenute ogni giorno piu' alte di otto gradi rispetto alla media stagionale. Per gli esperti, e' dovuto all'aria dei Balcani portata da un anticiclone su tutta la Russia. Per lunedi', pero', tornera' tempo brutto con pioggia e neve. E le temperature minime scenderanno fino a -9. (Agr)

A tornado as wide as two football fields carved a devastating path through an eastern Colorado town as a massive spring storm swept from the Rockies into the Plains, killing at least four people in three states, authorities said Thursday.
Sixty-five tornadoes were reported in Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas, Colorado and Nebraska on Wednesday, the National Weather Service said.
One twister killed an Oklahoma couple as it blew their home to pieces. Another woman died after the Colorado tornado hit, and a Texas man was found dead in the tangled debris of his trailer.
The massive storm system stretched from South Dakota to Texas on Thursday morning, threatening flash flooding in central Nebraska and Kansas and more severe weather farther south.===>

On March 16, 2007, an unusual rock went on display in Beijing. This rock has "hair," almost identical to human hair, growing out of its "head."
On March 16, 2007, an unusual rock went on display in Beijing. This rock has "hair," almost identical to human hair, growing out of its "head."
The rock is iron gray in color, naturally smooth and rounded, and is similar to a cobblestone. There is also a very thin layer of scalp tissue connecting the "hair" to the rock. The hair is grey in color and similar to the color of the rock itself. The hair grows quite naturally from the top with the longest strands being about 15 centimeters (6 inches) long. The hair is slightly coarser than human hair.
The rock was found on a beach, and according to Fashion Rock Café's executive Miss Yong, this kind of rock is named a "hair-growing rock". As long as conditions are right, the hair on this rare rock will continue to grow. Only two other hair-growing rocks have been reported in the world; and both are in a Taiwan Museum.===>

Un fuerte temporal con abundante caída de granizo se produjo en la tarde de ayer en la ciudad. Los sectores más afectados fueron los barrios Sur, Este y Centro donde se produjeron innumerables daños en techos y roturas de vidrios. Las piedras, algunas con diámetros superiores a los 15 cm, rompieron durante 20 minutos, cientos de parabrisas, vidrieras y carteles. El Intendente convocó al Comité de Defensa Civil. Anoche había algunas personas evacuadas y numerosos autoevacuados con techos vencidos===>

Il ciclone tropicale Kara ha fatto "landfall" nell'Australia nordoccidentale martedì notte, ora locale. La tempesta ha toccato terra sulla Eighty Mile Beach, a est di Port Hedland, presso la città di Wallai. Il maggiore impatto della tempesta, che appena toccata terra è scesa allo status di "tropical storm", si è manifestato nelle piogge torrenziali che essa ha portato. A Pardoo sono caduti 285 mm martedì e 76 nella prima parte di mercoledì, mentre a Mandora se ne sono registrati 52 e 197 negli stessi periodi. La media mensile di marzo è 58 mm a Pardoo.
Il ciclone tropicale Becky ha colpito, nel Pacifico Meridionale, le isole Vanuatu con piogge intense e forti venti rafficosi tra martedì e mercoledì. Il "cuore" della tempesta, con i suoi venti fino a 75 miglia orarie (oltre 120 km/h, ciclone di categoria 1) è passato in mare aperto, ma a breve distanza dalla parte occidentale dell'arcipelago-stato.
Alle 12 GMT di mercoledì, Becky era centrato a 19,7°S 168,3°E, ancora con vento fino a quasi 80 miglia orarie, e si dirigeva verso sud, con la previsione di indebolirsi, scendendo allo status di "tropical storm" già entro le 24 GMT di mercoledì. Nella sua traiettoria, Becky dovrebbe comunque portare nelle prossime ore piogge intense sulla Nuova Caledonia orientale e le Loyalty Islands.===>

An odd, six-sided, honeycomb-shaped feature circling the entire north pole of Saturn has captured the interest of scientists with the Cassini mission.
This atmospheric feature was already imaged by NASA’s Voyager 1 and 2 spacecraft over two decades ago. The fact that it has appeared in Cassini images indicates that it is a long-lived feature. A second hexagon, significantly darker than the brighter historical feature, is also visible in the Cassini pictures. The spacecraft's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) is the first instrument to capture the entire hexagon feature in one image.

The spacecraft's visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) is the first instrument to capture the entire hexagon feature in one image.
“This is a very strange feature, lying in a precise geometric fashion with six nearly equally straight sides,” said Kevin Baines, atmospheric expert and member of Cassini’s visual and infrared mapping spectrometer (VIMS) team at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, California. “We’ve never seen anything like this on any other planet. Indeed, Saturn’s thick atmosphere where circularly-shaped waves and convective cells dominate is perhaps the last place you’d expect to see such a six-sided geometric figure, yet there it is.” ===>

Two powerful earthquakes shook the Pacific island nation of Vanuatu on Sunday, but police said a tsunami alert passed without incident. No injuries or damage were immediately reported.
Australia's Emergency Management Office had initially warned that the quakes, measuring magnitude 7.2 and 6.0, could generate a tsunami affecting Vanuatu's outlying islands, a police spokesman said.
"So far there is no ... tsunami reported from the southern part of Vanuatu," police deputy commissioner, Lieut. Col. Arthur Caulton told The Associated Press, adding that the time for a tsunami was "well over."
Earlier, emergency officials had moved coastal residents to higher ground.
"There are no reports of injury or damage" from the quakes, felt throughout Vanuatu's southern islands, Caulton said.
The larger earthquake struck at 11:40 a.m. (0040 GMT) and was followed 28 minutes later by the second.
"We experienced a little bit of movement [in the capital, Port Vila], but not as destructive as might be expected," police captain Arnold Giro said earlier.
The stronger quake was centered 335 kilometers (210 miles) southeast of Port Vila, but only 115 kilometers (75 miles) south of the small volcanic island of Tanna. It was 7.5 kilometers (4.7 miles) beneath the earth surface.===>

Scientists have created the world's first human-sheep chimera - which has the body of a sheep and half-human organs.
Scientists have created the world's first human-sheep chimera - which has the body of a sheep and half-human organs.
The sheep have 15 per cent human cells and 85 per cent animal cells - and their evolution brings the prospect of animal organs being transplanted into humans one step closer.
Professor Esmail Zanjani, of the University of Nevada, has spent seven years and £5million perfecting the technique, which involves injecting adult human cells into a sheep's foetus. ===>
