The bill outlaws abortions from the point at which a heartbeat can be detected in the fetus, which can happen as soon as six weeks into a pregnancy. Doctors performing an abortion after this point would face up to five years in prison and a $5,000 fine, while the woman receiving the abortion would face no penalties. The bill is in direct violation of Roe v. Wade, which permits all women to receive abortions prior to viability (usually 22-24 weeks), and abortions rights groups have already pledged to challenge the law in court if and when Republican Governor Jack Dalrymple signs it. source

Without carbon, the building blocks of life cannot exist… So it is reduced carbon that, with hydrogen, with oxygen, with nitrogen make up the organic molecules of life. This research shows, yes - it does exist on Mars and now we are moving to the next set of questions. What happened to it, what was its fate, did it take the next step of creating life on Mars?Research team leader Dr. Andrew Steele • Giving comment on the findings of he and his team (from the Carnegie Institution for Science), who were investigating the presence of carbon on the planet Mars. Their efforts yielded worthy and interesting results — they determined that, based on meteorite samples, Mars indeed has carbon on it that was not “contaminated” to the planet through Earth, but rather originated there. They determined that the carbon did not spring from life forms, however — this is a so-called -building block’ for life, not a byproduct of it. source (via • follow)
It’s official; we have a life. Problem is, we never seem to have any time. There’s a week’s worth of news to cover (or as some might say, post), and it’s kind of a beast. Oh well … but at least we have a life.
