Ashes are ours, says Botham

He is right of course. Australia cannot lose the likes of Warne, McGrath, Gilchrist, Langer and Martin and not expect to go through a rebuilding phase. I think the 2009 Ashes series will be a year or two too soon for Australia, and expect England to win reasonably comfortably.

Astronaut speak: Moon is ours, now for universe

India planted the Tricolour on the moon on Friday when Chandrayaan-1's Moon Impact Probe landed successfully on moon. CNN-IBN spoke with Rakesh Sharma, the first Indian to go to space, who said it was a watershed moment in India's space technology. He also said the development opens up interesting vistas and career opportunities for children.

GANDHI'S BURDEN--AND OURS: Thoughts after Satyagraha at the Metropolitan Opera

Theme: You could feel the frost as soon as I posed the question. The week before I went to see Philip Glass’s opera Satyagraha, which is subtitled M.K. Gandhi in South Africa, I attended a screening of a documentary entitled Fidel, subtitled The Untold Story. It was sponsored by the Havana Film Festival, something of a New York cultural transgression of the U.S. embargo of Cuba. The embargo is foolish, but while Americans really do need to think afresh about how we relate to those south of us, indeed to all poor countries, it is hard to imagine that this film by Estela Bravo, which won awards when it came out in 2001, could foster anything of the sort.

SPACEExtrasolar Planets Get Spot in Hubble Photo Album

Two teams of astronomers have captured what may be the first photos of planets outside ours solar system. In the past, astronomers have determined the presence of over 300 exoplanets, but they did so indirectly by measuring factors like gravity, speed or light around stars. However, not all scientists are convinced that the photos are a first -- or that they even show planets at all.

Scientists find that ?gene? has a multitude of meanings

It’s no longer simply ‘DNA makes RNA makes protein’. Maybe 1% of the three billion paired sub-units in the DNA of each cell of ours are actually codes for protein. And meanwhile, RNA refuses to play sidekick

World Factbook 2008 for iPhone

The CIA World Factbook is one of those indispensable reference books that journalists, students, and researchers love. I know I do. The Factbook provides detailed information on the geographies, economies, populations, and militaries of more than 250 nations and territories on this big blue ball of ours. If you need to research business opportunities on Navassa Island (economy: subsistence fishing), the top exports and trading partners of Slovakia (vehicles, machinery and electrical equipment; Germany and the Czech Republic), or the Persian name of Iran's Revolutionary Guard (Sepah-e Pasdaran-e Enqelab-e Eslami), the World Factbook is where you turn for the answers.

Science's Alternative To an Intelligent Creator

Hugh Pickens writes "Discover magazine has an interesting article on the multiverse theory — a synthesis of string theory and the anthropic principle that explains why our universe seems perfectly tailored for life without invoking an intelligent creator. Our universe may be but one of perhaps infinitely many universes in an inconceivably vast multiverse. While most of those universes are barren, some, like ours, have conditions suitable for life. The idea that the universe was made just for us — known as the anthropic principle — debuted in 1973 when Brandon Carter proposed that a purely random assortment of laws would have left the universe dead and dark, and that life limits the values that physical constants can have. The anthropic principle languished on the fringes of science for years, but in 2000, new theoretical work threat
