Clearest Images Of Starburst Galaxies Reveal New Picture Of Early Universe

ScienceDaily (May 28, 2009) — People have always wondered where we, our Earth, 
our galaxy, come
from. A group of scientist has now driven that quest one step further
and taken a peak at how the stars that gave rise to most of the
material found on our universe formed over cosmic history.
University of Miami professor of physics in the College of Arts and
Sciences, Joshua Gundersen is part of an international research team
that built an innovative new telescope called BLAST (Balloon-borne
Large-Aperture Sub-millimeter Telescope) and launched it to the edge of
the atmosphere, where it discovered previously unidentified
dust-obscured, star-forming galaxies that could help illuminate the
origins of the universe.
BLAST has given us a unique picture into the development of other
galaxies and the earliest stages of star formation of our own Milky
Way, Gundersen explains. The light we're getting from these
submillimeter galaxies is from a time when they were first forming. In
a sense, it's like getting a baby picture.
The data analyzed over the past two years reveals close to a
thousand of these starburst galaxies that lie five to ten billion
light years from Earth, produce stars at an incredible rate, and hide
about half of the starlight in the cosmos. The findings were recently
published in the journal Nature.
Until BLAST came along, most of the galaxies in the universe have
been detected at optical wavelengths visible to the naked eye. The
starburst galaxies identified by Gundersen and his colleagues however
are a new class of galaxies, enshrouded by dust that absorbs most of
their starlight and then re-emits it at far-infrared wavelengths.
During an 11-day flight in 2006, the telescope, while tethered to a
balloon 120,000 feet above Antarctica, took measurements in three
different submillimeter wavelengths that are nearly impossible to
observe from the ground. By going to balloon altitudes, we got a nice,
crystal-clear picture of these things, Gundersen said. It is these
far-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths that we're able to detect
with BLAST, Gundersen explains.
Graduate student Nick Thomas spent seven weeks at the McMurdo
scientific research station in Antarctica, where he helped assemble the
device and worked on some of its electronic systems.
Having worked in a project of this magnitude and in the company of
a superb group of scientists has been one of the highlights of my
career thus far, said Thomas. Collaborating on this project has been
an incredible learning experience both at the personal and the
professional level.
The data from BLAST is being combined with information from other
NASA observatories like the Spitzer Space Telescope and the Chandra
X-ray Observatory, helping astronomers and cosmologists to better
understand the evolutionary history of these starburst galaxies and
how they may be associated with larger-scale structures in the universe.
The work on BLAST has helped pave the wave for one of the European
Space Agency's most ambitious missions to study the cosmos: The
Herschel telescope, which launched into orbit earlier this month from a
space center in French Guiana. Herschel will peer into the dustiest and
earliest stages of planet, star, and galaxy growth, using the same
detector system that flew aboard BLAST.
The idea with BLAST was that we could test a new detector system on
a much cheaper, faster platform, namely a balloon payload, Gundersen
says. Herschel has an identical detector system to BLAST, along with
other important instruments. It will do a lot more than BLAST did, but
we achieved some of the important goals first.

 Mars robots may have destroyed evidence of life

HAVE Mars landers been destroying signs of life? Instead of identifying 
chemicals that could point to life, NASA's robot explorers may have been 
toasting them by mistake.

In 1976, many people's hopes of finding life on Mars collapsed when the twin 
Viking landers failed to detect even minute quantities of organic compounds - 
the complex, carbon-containing molecules that are central to life as we know 
it. It contributed, in my opinion, to the fact that there were no additional 
[US lander] missions to Mars for 20 years, says Jeff Moore of NASA's Ames 
Research Center in Moffett Field, California.

The result also created a puzzle. Even if Mars has never had life, comets and 
asteroids that have struck the planet should have scattered at least some 
organic molecules - though not produced by life - over its surface.

Some have suggested that organics were cleansed from the surface by naturally 
occurring, highly reactive chemicals such as hydrogen peroxide. Then last year, 
NASA's Phoenix lander, which also failed to detect organics on Mars, stumbled 
on something in the Martian soil that may have, in effect, been hiding the 
organics: a class of chemicals called perchlorates.

At low temperatures, perchlorates are relatively harmless. But when heated to 
hundreds of degrees Celsius they release a lot of oxygen, which tends to cause 
any nearby combustible material to burn. For that very reason, perchlorates are 
used in rocket propulsion.

The Phoenix and Viking landers looked for organic molecules by heating soil 
samples to similarly high temperatures to evaporate them and analyse them in 
gas form. When Douglas Ming of NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas, 
and colleagues tried heating organics and perchlorates like this on Earth, the 
resulting combustion left no trace of organics behind. Ming's team presented 
their results at the recent Lunar and Planetary Science Conference in Houston.

Iron oxides have also been suspected of interfering with the detection of 
organics, but perchlorates are probably far more effective, says Chris McKay of 
Ames. Even if organics make up a few parts per thousand of the soil, Viking or 
Phoenix could have missed them, he adds, so it is too soon to conclude that 
these materials are not there. We haven't looked the right way, he says.

Jeffrey Bada of the University of California, San Diego, agrees that a new 
approach is needed. He is leading work on a new instrument called Urey for the 
European Space Agency's ExoMars rover, due to launch in 2016, which will be 
able to detect organic material at concentrations as low as a few parts per 
trillion. The good news is that, although Urey heats its samples, it does so in 
water, so the organics cannot burn up.
Mystery of the missing salt

Organic chemicals are not the only substance that we may have missed on the Red 
Planet (see above). We should have seen carbonate salts littering the surface.

Weathering breaks down basalt, the dominant rock in the planet's crust, into a 
clay plus positive ions. These ions should react with carbon dioxide in the 
Martian atmosphere to form carbonate salts, explains Ralph Milliken at NASA's 
Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California.

Orbiters have spotted clay on Mars but few carbonates or other salts. We 
shouldn't assume that they aren't there, however, Milliken says.

Milliken and his colleagues have calculated that weathered Mars basalt should 
produce equal amounts of clay and salt. Thus in the planet's southern 
highlands, where thousands of clay deposits have been identified, there should 
be at least as much salt (Geophysical Research Letters, DOI: 
10.1029/2009gl038558). Chemistry has shown that you can't draw conclusions 
from observations alone, because you are still missing pieces of the puzzle, 
says Milliken.

Some argue that the lack of known carbonate salt deposits points to a different 
atmospheric composition in the past, but Milliken says we should study the 
rocks directly before making any conclusions.

[zamanku] Reuters : Mars may have been both cold and wet

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Mars may have been both cold and wet
Wed May 20, 2009 1:27pm EDT
LONDON (Reuters) - Mars may have once been both cold and wet,
researchers said Wednesday, suggesting a freezing Martian landscape
could still have produced water needed to sustain life.
There has been debate over the issue because with some researchers
believing water likely formed many features of the planet's landscape
and others pointing to evidence indicating that early Mars was cold
with temperatures well below the freezing point of water.
Using a computer model, Alberto Fairen of Universidad Autonoma in
Madrid and colleagues showed that both could have been possible because
fluids containing dissolved minerals would have remained liquid at
temperatures well below 273 degrees Kelvin -- the freezing point of
pure water.
Our results are compatible with Mars lander and orbiter data and
with climate modeling, and suggest a cold and wet early Mars, they
wrote in the journal Nature.
The presence of water on Mars is a hot topic for scientists. They
have presented strong evidence of huge deposits of frozen water at the
Martian poles and point to geological features that indicate large
bodies of water have flowed on the planet's surface in the distant past.
Other scientists have said images and computer simulations strongly
suggest a landslide of sand and gravel are more likely explanations for
the bright deposits in gullies that have been proposed as strong
evidence of water flow.
Water is a key to the question of whether life, even in the form of
microbes, ever existed on Mars. On Earth, all known forms of life
require water.
Feiren and colleagues, including scientists from NASA's Ames
Research Center in California, chose compositions based on weathered
basalts for the Martian fluids in their model to match the chemical
compositions of rock found at Mars landing sites.
This analysis showed that a number of minerals could have lowered
the melting point of water in a frozen Martian environment and help
explain the early Mars climate paradox, they said.
The stability against freezing of Martian fluids can explain saline
water activity on the surface of Mars at mean global temperatures well
below 273 Kelvin, they wrote.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Scientists hail stunning fossil

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Scientists hail stunning fossil  By Christine McGourty 
 Science correspondent, BBC News 

The beautifully preserved remains of a 47-million-year-old, lemur-like creature 
have been unveiled in the US.  
The preservation is so good, it is possible to see the outline of its fur and 
even traces of its last meal. 
The fossil, nicknamed Ida, is claimed to be a missing link between
today's higher primates - monkeys, apes and humans - and more distant
relatives. 
But some independent experts, awaiting an opportunity to see the new fossil, 
are sceptical of the claim. 
And they have been critical of the hype surrounding the presentation of Ida. 
The fossil was launched amid great fanfare at the American Museum of Natural 
History in New York, by the city's mayor. 
Although details of the fossil have only just been published in a
scientific journal - PLoS One - there is already a TV documentary and
book tie-in. 
“ She belongs to the group from which higher primates and human beings
developed but my impression is she is not on the direct line  ” 
Dr Jens Franzen 
Ida was discovered in the 1980s in a fossil treasure-trove called
Messel Pit, near Darmstadt in Germany. For much of the intervening
period, it has been in a private collection. 
The investigation of the fossil's significance was led by Jorn Hurum of the 
Natural History Museum in Oslo, Norway. 
He said the fossil creature was the closest thing we can get to a
direct ancestor and described the discovery as a dream come true. 
The female animal lived during an epoch in Earth
history known as the Eocene, which was crucial for the development of
early primates - and at first glance, Ida resembles a lemur. 
But the creature lacks primitive features such as a
so-called toothcomb, a specialised feature in which the lower incisor
and canine teeth are elongated, crowded together and projecting
forward. She also lacks a special claw used for grooming. 
The team concluded that she was not simply another lemur, but a new species. 
They have called her Darwinius masillae  , to celebrate her place of origin and 
the bicentenary of the birth of Charles Darwin. 
Dr Jens Franzen, an expert on the Messel Pit and a member of the team,
described Ida as like the Eighth Wonder of the World, because of the
extraordinary completeness of the skeleton. 
It was information palaeontologists can normally only dream of, he said. 
In addition, Ida bears a close resemblance to ourselves he said, with
nails instead of claws, a grasping hand and an opposable thumb - like
humans and some other primates. But he said some aspects of the teeth
indicate she is not a direct ancestor - more of an aunt than a
grandmother. 
She belongs to the group from which higher primates
and human beings developed but my impression is she is not on the
direct line. 
Independent experts are keen to see the new fossil but somewhat sceptical of 
any claim that it could be a missing link. 
Dr Henry Gee, a senior editor at the journal Nature, said the term
itself was misleading and that the scientific community would need to
evaluate its significance. 
It's extremely nice to have a new find and it will be
well-studied, he said. But he added that it was not likely to be in
the same league as major discoveries such as Flores man or feathered
dinosaurs. 
Dr Chris Beard, curator of the Carnegie Museum of Natural History and
author of The Hunt for the Dawn Monkey, said he was awestruck by the
publicity machine surrounding the new fossil. 
He argued that it could damage the popularisation of science if the creature 
was not all that it was hyped up to be. 
Dr Beard has not yet seen scientific details of the find but said that
it would be very nice to have a beautiful new fossil from the Eocene
and that Ida would be a welcome new addition to the world of early
primates. 
But he added: I would be absolutely dumbfounded if it turns out to be a 
potential ancestor to humans. 
In the PLoS paper itself, the scientists do not actually claim the
specimen represents a direct ancestor to us. But Dr Hurum believes that
is exactly what Ida is. 
He told BBC News that the key to proving this lay in
the detail of the foot. The shape of a bone in the foot called the
talus looks almost anthropoid. 
He said the team was now planning a 3D reconstruction of the foot which would 
prove this. 
We're not finished with this specimen yet, said Dr Hurum. There will be 
plenty more papers coming out.

[zamanku] SD: Common Ancestor Of Humans, Modern Primates? 'Extraordinary' Fossil Is 47 Million Years Old

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 in the talus bone links Ida to us. The bone has the same
shape as in humans today. Only the human talus is obviously bigger.
X-rays and CT scanning reveal Ida to be about nine months old when she
died, and provide clues to her diet – which included berries and
plants. Furthermore the lack of a bacculum (penis bone) means that the
fossil was definitely female. 
X-rays reveal that a broken wrist may have contributed to Ida’s
death – her left wrist was healing from a bad fracture. The scientists
believe she was overcome by carbon dioxide gas whilst from drinking
from the Messel lake: the still waters of the lake were often covered
by a low lying blanket of the gas as a result of the volcanic forces
that formed the lake and which were still active. Hampered by her
broken wrist, Ida slipped into unconsciousness, was washed into the
lake, and sunk to the bottom, where the unique conditions preserved her
for 47 million years.
The findings of the two-year study will be revealed exclusively by
Atlantic Productions in a special documentary film, The Link, to be
screened by History on Monday May 25th, 2009 at 9pm ET/PT and BBC One
in the UK Tuesday May 26th, 2009 at 9pm BST. It will also be broadcast
on ZDF, NRK and around the world. A major book, The Link, will be
published by Little Brown and Company, a division of Hachette Book
Group, on Wednesday May 20th. An interactive, content-rich website
about Ida has been launched at http://www.revealingthelink.com.
This little creature is going to show us our connection with all
the rest of the mammals, said renowned broadcaster and naturalist Sir
David Attenborough. The link they would have said until now is missing
... it is no longer missing.

[zamanku] AFP: Hawking bets CERN mega-machine won't find 'God's Particle'

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Hawking bets CERN mega-machine won't find 'God's Particle'

Sep 9, 2008

LONDON (AFP) — Renowned British astrophysicist Stephen Hawking has bet 100 
dollars (70 euros) that a mega-experiment this week will not find an elusive 
particle seen as a holy grail of cosmic science, he said Tuesday.

In the most complex scientific experiment ever undertaken, the Large Hadron 
Collider (LHC) will be switched on Wednesday, accelerating sub-atomic particles 
to nearly the speed of light before smashing them together.

The LHC will increase the energy at which we can study particle interactions 
by a factor of four. According to present thinking, this should be enough to 
discover the Higgs particle, Hawking told BBC radio.

I think it will be much more exciting if we don't find the Higgs. That will 
show something is wrong, and we need to think again. I have a bet of 100 
dollars that we won't find the Higgs, added Hawking, whose books including A 
Brief History of Time have sought to popularise study of stellar physics.

On Wednesday the first protons will be injected into a 27-kilometre (16.9-mile) 
ring-shaped tunnel, straddling the Swiss-French border at the headquarters of 
the European Organisation for Nuclear Research (CERN).

Physicists have long puzzled over how particles acquire mass. In 1964, a 
British physicist, Peter Higgs, came up with this idea: there must exist a 
background field that would act rather like treacle.

Some scientists were however more optimistic.

Hubert Reeves, the French astrophysician, told the Swiss daily Le Matin that 
the invention could bring unexpected results that would change the world of 
particle physics forever.

This machine will probably bring unexpected results that could turn particle 
physics on its head, Reeves said.

It's a really impressive tool. It can go as deep underground as the length of 
a cathedral, he said.

Particles passing through it would acquire mass by being dragged through a 
mediator, which theoreticians dubbed the Higgs Boson.

The standard quip about the Higgs is that it is the God Particle -- it is 
everywhere but remains frustratingly elusive.

While questioning the likelihood of finding Higgs Bosons, Hawking said the 
experiment could discover superpartners, particles that would be 
supersymmetric partners to particles already known about.

Their existence would be a key confirmation of string theory, and they could 
make up the mysterious dark matter that holds galaxies together, he told the 
BBC.

Whatever the LHC finds, or fails to find, the results will tell us a lot about 
the structure of the universe, he added.

Hawking, the 66-year-old Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge 
University, was diagnosed with the muscle-wasting motor neuron disease at the 
age of 22.

He is in a wheelchair and speaks with the aid of a computer and voice 
synthesiser.

The hunt for 'God's particle'
James Randerson, Guardian 
June 2, 2008 
Advertisement
A huge atom-smasher is set to unlock the secret of the origin of the universe.
IT IS one of the most puzzling pieces in physicists' understanding of the 
universe - the Higgs bosun, the so-called missing piece. But the scientist 
behind the so-called God particle believes the confirmation of his prediction 
is imminent.
Peter Higgs, emeritus professor of physics at the University of Edinburgh, says 
he is 90% confident that an atom-smashing machine nearing completion in 
Switzerland will prove that the particle exists.
The professor is hoping this will happen before his 80th birthday in May next 
year. If that mass prediction is right, it will be in the data very quickly, 
he says. But there's a lot of analysis of the data to be done before you 
announce it, and that's what takes the time.
Many physicists believe the confirmation could win Higgs a Nobel prize, along 
with two other physicists who have made significant advances in the same field.
The big hope for finding the Higgs boson - the particle that confers mass on 
the rest of matter - is the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN in Switzerland, 
a particle physics laboratory.
By crunching together particles at high speed and energy, the machine is 
designed to recreate conditions that have not existed since just after the Big 
Bang. This is a Genesis machine, theoretical physicist Professor Michio Kaku 
of City University in New York, says. This machine will help us to unlock the 
secret of the origin of the universe.
Finding the Higgs boson would add significantly to physicists' understanding of 
how matter is put together, the so-called standard model. But Higgs says the 
LHC is about much more than just the God particle (not his phrase, and one 
which he says embarrasses him). The Higgs boson discovery is only one part of 
the program. There is vastly more for the machine to do.
The collider consists of two concentric underground rings, 27kilometres in 
circumference spanning the border between France and Switzerland. Using 
powerful superconducting magnets, it will accelerate packets of particles to 
within a whisker of the speed of light. When these collide head-on they 
generate enough energy to rip matter apart. By collecting the subatomic 
shrapnel, the physicists can infer what that matter was composed of.
Engineers will seal off the particle accelerator and cool it to -271.3degrees - 
the low temperature is required for the powerful magnets to work. They hope to 
switch on the first beam in a few weeks and the first collisions should happen 
by the end of the year. It will probably be 12 months before the LHC is at full 
power.
That subatomic fireball will actually reproduce the conditions that would have 
existed about a millionth of a second after the Big Bang, says Dr David Evans, 
of the University of Birmingham, England, who is working on one of the 
experiments.

[zamanku] The ndepmendent: World's most ancient race traced in DNA study

World's most ancient race traced in DNA study
By Steve Connor, Science Editor



Friday, 1 May 2009


The San people of
southern Africa, who have lived as hunter-gatherers for thousands of
years, are likely to be the oldest population of humans on Earth,
according to the biggest and most detailed analysis of African DNA. The
San, also known as bushmen, are directly descended from the original
population of early human ancestors who gave rise to all other groups
of Africans and, eventually, to the people who left the continent to
populate other parts of the world.
A study of 121 distinct
populations of modern-day Africans has found that they are all
descended from 14 ancestral populations and that the differences and
similarities of their genes closely follows the differences and
similarities of their spoken languages.
The scientists analysed
the genetic variation within the DNA of more than 3,000 Africans and
found that the San were among the most genetically diverse group,
indicating that they are probably the oldest continuous population of
humans on the continent – and on Earth.
The study, published in
the journal Science, took 10 years of research involving trips to some
of the most remote and dangerous parts of Africa to collect blood
samples. The project found modern Africans had the most diverse DNA of
all racial groups in the world, confirming the idea that Africa is the
birthplace of humanity, said Sarah Tishkoff of the University of
Pennsylvania.
The scientists also found genetic markers in the
DNA of the present-day inhabitants of East Africa living near to the
Red Sea, which indicated that they belonged to the same ancestral group
who migrated out of Africa to populate Asia and the rest of the world.
West Africans speaking the Niger-Kordofanian language were found to
share many genetic traits with African-Americans, indicating they were
the ancestors of most of the slaves sent to the New World.
One of
the main findings to emerge was the genetic similarity between groups
who shared similar languages despite living many thousands of miles
from one another. The Sandawe and Hadza of Tanzania shared common
ancestors with the Khoisan speakers of southern Africa: all three
groups speak click languages.

Experts unveil African gene study

A group of scientists have unveiled what they say is the most comprehensive 
study ever of African genes.

Published following a decade of study, the researchers say their findings give 
new insight into the origins of humans.

The first humans probably evolved near the South Africa-Namibia border before 
migrating north, the study says.

Published in the US journal Science, it aims to teach Africans on population 
history and aid research into why diseases hit particular groups.

The scientists examined genetic material from 121 African populations, as well 
as four African-American populations and 60 non-African populations.

'Benefit Africans'

The results provided novel insights about levels and patterns of genetic 
diversity in Africa, a region that has been under-represented in human genetic 
studies, said Sarah Tishkoff, a geneticist from the University of Pennsylvania.

The first humans most likely evolved near the South Africa-Namibia border, the 
team said, and migrated north out of the continent via the Red Sea.

Researchers had identified 14 ancestral population clusters that correlated 
with ethnicity and shared cultural and/or linguistic properties, they said.

They found high levels of mixed ancestry in most populations, as well as 
evidence showing common ancestry in geographically diverse groups.

The study also looked at African-American populations, finding that almost 
three-quarters could trace their ancestry to West Africa.

This knowledge could help experts better understand why certain diseases impact 
on African-American populations, researchers said.

Dr Tishkoff said that the goal was to benefit Africans, both by learning more 
about their population history and by setting the stage for future genetic 
studies, including studies of genetic and environmental risk factors for 
disease and drug response.

 own food source and shunned the other 
molecule's food source.

In the process, the molecules evolved different evolutionary approaches to 
achieving their ends. One became super efficient at gobbling up its food, doing 
so at a rate that was about a hundred times faster than the other. The other 
was slower at acquiring food, but produced about three times more progeny per 
generation. These are both examples of classic evolutionary strategies for 
survival, says Joyce.

[zamanku] ScienceDaily : Dinosaur-Bird Link: Ancient Proteins Preserved In Soft Tissue From 80 Million-Year-Old Hadrosaur

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 to improve upon 
the techniques he had used in analyzing both the T. rex specimen and specimens 
from bones of other prehistoric animals including a 300,000-year-old mammoth 
and mastodon.

At the beginning of the study, Asara explains, his lab used an ion trap mass 
spectrometer, which captures and holds peptides through time so that after the 
collected peptides are measured for mass they are isolated and fragmented to 
reveal their amino acid sequence. Then, while the study was in progress, his 
lab acquired a high-resolution and highly mass-accurate Orbitrap XL mass 
spectrometer, which was used during the second half of the analysis.

Because it is capable of sub 2 ppm mass accuracy, the Orbitrap allowed us to 
make more confident sequence calls than we did in the T. rex study, Asara 
explains. For example, the mass difference between a hydroxyproline amino acid 
residue [which is plentiful in collagen] and a leucine or isoleucine residue is 
only 0.0364 Da. Although this very small measurement proved to be an obstacle 
for the ion trap, it was not a problem for the Orbitrap. Material for mass 
spectrometry sequence analysis was also sent to the lab of William Lane at 
Harvard University and mass spectrometry sequence data were independently 
verified by John Cottrell, PhD, at Matrix Science in London, UK.

The end result was a total of eight collagen peptides and 149 amino acids from 
four different samples, sequences that held up when multiple validation steps 
were performed, including comparisons with synthetic peptides using a spectral 
comparison algorithm and statistical evaluation.

In the final portion of the study, coauthor Chris Organ, PhD, a Postdoctoral 
Fellow in the Department of Organismic and Evolutionary Biology at Harvard 
University, conducted a rigorous phylogenetic analysis of the identified 
sequences to determine B. canadensis' place within the evolutionary tree of 
animals. The B. canadensis collagen sequence data were compared to a database 
of collagen sequence data from 21 species of living animals and sequences from 
two other fossils, mastodon and T. rex. The results placed B. canadensis on the 
same family-tree branch with T. rex, in the same group as chicken and ostrich, 
and more distantly, to alligator and lizard.

The phylogenetic analysis yielded clear results, but the placement of the 
extinct dinosaurs still rests on a limited amount of sequence data, notes 
Organ. There is not enough sequence data to correctly parse out the 
relationships within Dinosauria [the group containing B. canadensis, T. rex and 
the two birds] but the group as a whole is well supported by the analysis, 
which is consistent with studies based on morphology.

Ultimately, notes Asara, We were able to achieve these results, in part, 
because the mass spectrometry systems that our lab has set up for cancer 
research are capable of a similar concentration range – low to sub femtomole -- 
needed for ancient fossil protein sequencing. We hope to meet with similar 
success when it comes to identifying novel signaling proteins from cancerous 
tissues.

This study was funded, in part, through grants from the National Science 
Foundation, the David and Lucile Packard Foundation, the Merck Postdoctoral 
Science Research Fellowship, the National Institutes of Health and the Taplin 
Funds for Discovery, Harvard Medical School.

In addition to Asara and Schweitzer, coauthors include BIDMC investigators 
Lewis Cantley, Raghu Kalluri, Lisa Freimark, Valerie Lebleu, and Michael Duncan 
II; Wenxia Zheng of North Carolina State University; Chris Organ, John Neveu 
and William Lane of Harvard University; Recep Avci, and Zhiyong Suo of Montana

Museumnya betul-betul mengesankan (dan makanan di restorannnya juga enak).

Pengunjung diberi kesan mengikuti sejarah terbentuknya planet  bumi hingga abad

[zamanku] JP: Depok mayor sued for annulling church permit

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Langkah yang bagus...

Dan akan kita lihat apakah juciary di Indonesia itu tahu apa yang namanya 
kebebasan beragama.. 







Published on The Jakarta Post (http://www.thejakartapost.com)
Depok mayor sued for annulling church permit
Yuli Tri Suwarni,   The Jakarta Post
,   Bandung   |  Thu, 05/07/2009 2:29 PM  |  
Headlines 
Members of the Huria Kristen Batak Protestant (HKBP) congregation in
Depok decided Wednesday to sue Depok Mayor Nurmahmudi Ismail for
revoking a building permit for a church in Cinere, Depok. 
Dozens of HKBP members, represented by lawyer Junimart Girsang, filed a
lawsuit at the State Administrative Court in Bandung appealing to the
court to cancel a Depok municipal ordinance on the revocation on March
27, 2009, of a building permit for a church and a multipurpose hall
under the name of HKBP Pangkalan Jati Gandul on Jl. Pesanggrahan in
Cinere. 
Junimart said the mayor's ordinance lacked strong legal basis and went against 
the principle of freedom of worship. 
He added his clients had obtained a building permit issued by the Bogor
regent on June 13, 1998, which served as a legal basis to start
building the church and hall from October 1998. 
By January 2009, they had already completed the foundation, the ground
floor and columns for the second floor, before construction was halted
due to the issuance of the mayor's decree against the building permit,
Junimart said in Bandung. 
He added opposition by the majority Muslim residents in the area the
church was being built could not serve as a valid reason for the mayor
to issue the one-sided decision. 
He insisted the church and hall construction complied with Law No.
28/2002 on Buildings, and Government Regulation No. 36/2005 and Depok
Municipal Ordinance No. 3/2006 on Buildings and Building Permit Fees. 
We regret the mayor's action, which goes against basic human rights as
stipulated in Article 22 of Law No. 39/1999, which guarantees freedom
for anyone to choose a religion and pray according to their faith,
Junimart said. 
The construction work has been halted temporarily because of the decision. 
He added the congregation had tried to meet with the Depok mayor prior
to filing the lawsuit, but had not met with a serious response. 
The plaintiffs also asked the court for a temporary ruling by
postponing the implementation of the municipal decree until the State
Administrative Court had issued a definite ruling. 
A series of attacks on churches broke out in West Java several years
ago, hammering home the reality of suppression of religious freedom in
predominantly Muslim Indonesia. 
The number of churches forcibly closed in West Java alone was reported
to be more than 30 in the period between September 2004 and April 2007. 
Dozens of other churches were also forced to close down in other provinces 
across the country during the same period. 
Under a revised joint decree issued by Religious Affairs Minister
Maftuh Basyuni, the establishment of a house of worship must be
approved by at least 60 local residents and have a minimum congregation
size of 90 people.

[zamanku] The New York Times: Chemist Shows How RNA Can Be the Starting Point for Life

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 but
as a phosphate-based life form.”
Dr. Sutherland’s proposal has not convinced everyone. Dr. Robert Shapiro, a 
chemist at New York University,
said the recipe “definitely does not meet my criteria for a plausible
pathway to the RNA world.” He said that cyano-acetylene, one of Dr.
Sutherland’s assumed starting materials, is quickly destroyed by other
chemicals and its appearance in pure form on the early earth “could be
considered a fantasy.” 
Dr. Sutherland replied that the chemical is consumed fastest in the
reaction he proposes, and that since it has been detected on Titan
there is no reason it should not have been present on the early earth.
If Dr. Sutherland’s proposal is correct it will set conditions that
should help solve the many other problems in reconstructing the origin
of life. Darwin, in a famous letter of 1871 to the botanist Joseph
Hooker, surmised that life began “in some
warm little pond, with all sorts of ammonia and phosphoric salts.” But
the warm little pond has given way in recent years to the belief that
life began in some exotic environment like the fissures of a volcano or
in the deep sea vents that line the ocean floor.
Dr. Sutherland’s report supports Darwin. His proposed chemical
reaction take place at moderate temperatures, though one goes best at
60 degrees Celsius. “It’s consistent with a warm pond evaporating as
the sun comes out,” he said. His scenario would rule out deep sea vents
as the place where life originated because it requires ultraviolet
light.
A serious puzzle about the nature of life is that most of its
molecules are right-handed or left-handed, whereas in nature mixtures
of both forms exist. Dr. Joyce said he had hoped an explanation for the
one-handedness of biological molecules would emerge from prebiotic
chemistry, but Dr. Sutherland’s reactions do not supply any such
explanation. One is certainly required because of what is known to
chemists as “original syn,” referring to a chemical operation that can
affect a molecule’s handedness. 
Dr. Sutherland said he was working on this problem and on others,
including how to enclose the primitive RNA molecules in some kind of
membrane as the precursor to the first living cell.

Darwin still causing waves after 150 years
Wed Jun 4, 2008 3:35pm EDT
By Jeremy Lovell
LONDON (Reuters) - Speeches and a scientific meeting next month will
kick off 18 months of events to celebrate the impact and lasting legacy
of Charles Darwin, whose theories on evolution are still causing waves
150 years later.
It was on July 1, 1858 that papers on the development of animals by
Darwin and fellow scientist Alfred Wallace were presented to the
Linnean Society in London representing the cream of scientific
knowledge. They did not go down well.
There was very little reaction in the room, Linnean Society
librarian Lynda Brooks said on Wednesday. But the real furor didn't
begin until Darwin published 'On The Origin of Species' the following
year.
On July 1 this year the society, which still prides itself as the
repository of natural history expertise in Britain, will hold a meeting
to discuss how much scientific understanding of the controversial
theories has developed since then.
The celebrations will cover three significant events in the life of the shy, 
retiring scientist who shook the world.
February 2009 will be the 200th anniversary of Darwin's birth and
the following November will be the 150th anniversary of the publication
of Origin.
There is a grandeur in this view of life ... that whilst this
planet has gone cycling on according to the fixed law of gravity, from
so simple a beginning endless forms most beautiful and most wonderful
have been, and are being, evolved, are the concluding lines of the
revolutionary book.
Darwin, knowing the reaction he was likely to receive, held back for
years from airing and then publishing his theories on the principle of
natural selection.
In the end he was stampeded into action by news that Wallace had
reached the same conclusions from completely different observations and
was about to publish. Both papers were read to the Linneans on the same
day.
Darwin's fears were correct. He was pilloried by the scientific and religious 
establishment of the time.
One famous caricature depicted him with the body of a monkey, so
angered were people by the suggestion that they might have descended
from the apes rather than having been created in the image of God.
His theories are still rejected by some, notably creationists in the
United States, and are less than welcome in the Middle East.
Even in Britain a poll in 2006 showed that only 48 percent of people believed 
Darwin's evolutionary theories.
The 18 months of events, which include exhibitions and seminars at
London's Natural History Museum among others, student exchanges and
scientific meetings, will culminate in a three day conference in Egypt
in November 2009.

[zamanku] CBSNews: Vatican Paper Hits 'Intelligent Design'

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Masih ada manusia  berotrak kerbau  yang percaya Adam itu diciptakah Tuhan atau 
Allah.?

.-





Vatican Paper Hits 'Intelligent Design' 

VATICAN CITY, Jan. 18, 2006

(AP) The
Vatican newspaper has published an article saying intelligent design
is not science and that teaching it alongside evolutionary theory in
school classrooms only creates confusion.

The article in
Tuesday's editions of L'Osservatore Romano was the latest in a series
of interventions by Vatican officials _ including the pope _ on the
issue that has dominated headlines in the United States.

The
author, Fiorenzo Facchini, a professor of evolutionary biology at the
University of Bologna, laid out the scientific rationale for Darwin's
theory of evolution, saying that in the scientific world, biological
evolution represents the interpretative key of the history of life on
Earth.

He lamented that certain American creationists had
brought the debate back to the dogmatic 1800s, and said their
arguments weren't science but ideology.

This isn't how science
is done, he wrote. If the model proposed by Darwin is deemed
insufficient, one should look for another, but it's not correct from a
methodological point of view to take oneself away from the scientific
field pretending to do science.

Intelligent design doesn't
belong to science and the pretext that it be taught as a scientific
theory alongside Darwin's explanation is unjustified, he wrote.

It only creates confusion between the scientific and philosophical and 
religious planes.

Supporters
of intelligent design hold that some features of the universe and
living things are so complex they must have been designed by a higher
intelligence. Critics say intelligent design is merely creationism _ a
literal reading of the Bible's story of creation _ camouflaged in
scientific language and say it does not belong in science curriculum.

Facchini
said he recognized some Darwin proponents erroneously assume that
evolution explains everything. Better to recognize that the problem
from the scientific point of view remains open, he said.

But he
concluded: In a vision that goes beyond the empirical horizon, we can
say that we aren't men by chance or by necessity, and that the human
experience has a sense and a direction signaled by a superior design.

The
article echoed similar arguments by the Vatican's chief astronomer, the
Rev. George Coyne, who said intelligent design wasn't science and had
no place in school classrooms.

Pope Benedict XVI reaffirmed in
off-the-cuff comments in November that the universe was made by an
intelligent project and criticized those who in the name of science
say its creation was without direction or order.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: 'Missing link' fossil seal walked

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Boleh dibilagn tiap hari para ahli berbagai bidang berusaha melengkapi dan 
menyempurnakan teori Darwin itu...

Nggak heran bahwa akhirnya Vatikan mengakui bahwa teori Darwin itu bener...

Yang masih perlu dinyatakan olehVatikan adalah bahwa Tuhan yang diriwayatkan 
Bible itu tidak berbukti ada.








'Missing link' fossil seal walked  By Richard Black 
 Environment correspondent, BBC News website 

It may look like a cross between a seal and an otter; but an Arctic
fossil could, scientists say, hold the secret of seal evolution in its
feet.  
A skeleton unearthed in northern Canada shows a creature with feet that were 
probably webbed, but were not flippers. 
Writing in the journal Nature, scientists suggest the 23
million-year-old proto-seal would have walked on land and swum in fresh
water. 
It is the oldest seal ancestor found so far and has been named Pujilla darwini. 
 
Pujilla  is the term for young sea mammal in the Inuktitut language, spoken by
Inuit groups in Devon Island where the fossil was found. 
“ Pujilla  is the evolutionary evidence we have been lacking for so long  ” 
Mary Dawson Carnegie Museum of Natural History 
And the reference to Charles Darwin honours the famous biologist's
contention that land mammals would naturally move into the marine
environment via a fresh water stage, just as pinnipeds - seals,
sealions and walruses - have apparently done. 
The find suggests that pinnipeds went through a fresh
water phase in their evolution, said Natalia Rybczynski from the
Canadian Museum of Nature (CMN) in Ottawa, who led the fieldwork. 
It also provides us with a glimpse of what pinnipeds looked like before they 
had flippers. 
Flip side  
The skeleton was about 65% complete, which enabled the researchers to
reconstruct what the animal would have looked like in remarkable
detail. 
The legs suggest it would have walked upright on land;
but the foot bones hint strongly at webbed feet. The fact that the
remains were found in a former crater lake that has also yielded fossil
fish from the same period was additional evidence for a semi-aquatic
past. 
The remarkably preserved skeleton of Pujilla  had heavy limbs, indicative of 
well developed muscles, and flattened
phalanges (finger or toe bones) which suggest that the feet were webbed
- but not flippers, said Mary Dawson from the Carnegie Museum of
Natural History in Pittsburgh, US, another of the scientists involved. 
This animal was likely adept at both swimming and walking on land. Pujilla  is 
the evolutionary evidence we have been lacking for so long. 
Until now, the most primitive fossil pinniped was a creature called Enaliarctos 
 that dates from about the same period and appears to have lived in the sea 
along the northwestern coasts of North America. 
Enaliarctos  had flippers, but may have had to bring its prey to the shore for 
eating, whereas modern pinnipeds manage it at sea. 
Intriguingly, different species of present-day seal swim in different
ways - either rotating their flippers, or waving their hind-quarters
from side to side, using the hind limbs for propulsion. 
Enaliarctos  appears to have been capable of both modes of swimming - and as a 
four-legged animal with four webbed feet, Pujilla  is a logical fore-runner of 
this creature which could swim with all four limbs. 
The new discovery also shows, the scientists say, that seals, sealions
and walruses very likely had their origins in the Arctic. 
Darwin forecast the transition from land to sea via
fresh water in his seminal work On the Origin of Species, published 150
years ago this year. 
A strictly terrestrial animal, by occasionally hunting
for food in shallow water, then in streams or lakes, might at last be
converted in an animal so thoroughly aquatic as to brace the open
ocean, he wrote.

New research shows that the expression of certain specialized genes in

ScienceDaily (Apr. 16, 2009) — A study of gene expression in chickens, frogs, 
pufferfish, mice and people has revealed surprising similarities in several key 
tissues. Researchers have shown that expression in tissues with a limited 
number of specialized cell types is strongly conserved, even between the 
mammalian and non-mammalian vertebrates.

Timothy Hughes from the University of Toronto, Canada, worked with a team of 
researchers to investigate evolutionary alterations in gene regulation in the 
five different vertebrates. They found that although the specialized DNA 
sequences that regulate the expression of the genes seem to have changed beyond 
recognition over the hundreds of millions of years since the clades parted 
evolutionary company, the actual patterns of gene expression remain closely 
conserved.

According to Hughes, There are clearly strong evolutionary constraints on 
tissue-specific gene expression. Many genes show conserved human/fish 
expression despite having almost no nonexonic conserved primary sequence.

The authors studied 3074 genes that were present as a single unambiguous copy 
in each of the five genomes. The similar expression profiles they uncovered 
suggest the existence of a basic ancestral pattern of expression in each 
tissue, the so-called 'inner fish'.

The strongest similarities were seen in brain tissue. Hughes said, This 
relatively low divergence of gene expression in brain supports the hypothesis 
that neurons participate in more functional interactions than cells in other 
tissues – imposing constraints on the degree of alteration that can be 
tolerated. Genes expressed in tissues subject to greater environmental 
influence (such as intestine, stomach and spleen) may be more likely to take on 
new roles and diverge in expression as a means of adaptation.

Although this study only investigated vertebrates, these expression profiles 
may go much further back into our past. The authors conclude, It is likely 
that the conservation of gene expression extends beyond the base of 
vertebrates, coexpression of neuronal genes, for example, has been observed as 
far as nematodes.

Evolution Of Fins And Limbs Linked With That Of Gills

Gill skeletons. The shark arch gill skeleton (left) shows primitive gill rays 
that are found only in sharks and other cartilaginous fishes. The gills of 
other fishes (right) are also arched but lack gill rays. This primitive feature 
of sharks allowed the researchers to link the developmental genetic program for 
fins and limbs to the more primitive one for gill rays. (Credit: Image by J. 
Andrew Gillis, University of Chicago)

ScienceDaily (Mar. 25, 2009) — The genetic toolkit that animals use to build 
fins and limbs is the same genetic toolkit that controls the development of 
part of the gill skeleton in sharks, according to a new study.

The research is published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on 
March 23, 2009, by Andrew Gillis and Neil Shubin of the University of Chicago, 
and Randall Dahn of Mount Desert Island Biological Laboratory.

In fact, the skeleton of any appendage off the body of an animal is probably 
patterned by the developmental genetic program that we have traced back to 
formation of gills in sharks, said Andrew Gillis, lead author of the paper and 
a graduate student in the Department of Organismal Biology and Anatomy at the 
University of Chicago. We have pushed back the evolutionary origin of the 
developmental genetic program that patterns fins and limbs.

This new finding is consistent with an old theory, often discounted in science 
textbooks, that fins and (later) limbs evolved from the gills of an extinct 
vertebrate, Gillis added. A dearth of fossils prevents us from definitely 
concluding that fins evolved from gills. Nevertheless, this research shows that 
the genetic architecture of gills, fins and limbs is the same.

The research builds on the breakthrough discovery of the fossil Tiktaalik, a 
fish with legs, by Neil Shubin and his colleagues in 2006. This is another 
example of how evolution uses common developmental programs to pattern 
different anatomical structures, said Shubin, who is the senior author on the 
PNAS paper and Professor and Associate Dean of Organismal and Evolutionary 
Biology at the University of Chicago. In this case, shared developmental 
mechanisms pattern the skeletons of vertebrate gill arches and paired fins.

The research also showed for the first time that the gill arch skeleton of 
embryonic skates (a living relative of sharks that has gill rays) responds to 
treatment with the vitamin A derivative retinoic acid in the same way a limb or 
fin skeleton does: by making a mirror image duplicate of the structure as the 
embryo develops. According to the researchers, the genetic circuitry that 
patterns paired appendages (arms, legs and fins) has a deep evolutionary origin 
that actually predates the origin of paired appendages themselves.

These findings suggest that when paired appendages appeared, the mechanism 
used to pattern the skeleton was co-opted from the gills, Gillis said. 
Perhaps we should think of shark gills as another type of vertebrate 
appendage—one that's patterned in essentially the same way as fins and limbs.

The deep structural, functional, and regulatory similarities between paired 
appendages and developing gill rays, as well as the antiquity of gills relative 
to paired appendages, suggest that the signaling network that is induced by 
retinoic acid had a patterning function in gills before the origin of 
vertebrate appendages, the research concludes. And this function has been 
retained in the gill rays of living cartilaginous fishes.

[zamanku] SD: Ancestors Of African Pygmies And Neighboring Farmers Separated Around 60,000 Years Ago

Ancestors Of African Pygmies And Neighboring Farmers Separated Around 60,000 
Years Ago

ScienceDaily (Apr. 11, 2009) — All African Pygmies, inhabiting a large 
territory extending west-to-east along Central Africa, descend from a unique 
population who lived around 20,000 years ago, according to an international 
study led by researchers at the Institut Pasteur in Paris. The research 
concludes that the ancestors of present-day African Pygmies and farmers 
separated ~60,000 years ago.

Pygmies are characterized by a forest-dwelling hunter-gathering lifestyle and 
distinctive cultural practices and physical traits (e.g., low stature). Two 
groups of Pygmy populations live in the African rainforests: the Western 
Pygmies and the Eastern Pygmies. The common origins of the two groups of 
Pygmies, separated by thousands of kilometers, have been long debated, and 
their relationships with neighboring farmers remained obscure.

The researchers, led by Lluis Quintana-Murci, studied the genetic profile of 
twelve populations of Pygmies and neighboring farmers dispersed over the 
African continent, using sequence data from non-coding regions of their 
genomes. Using simulation-based procedures, they determined that the ancestors 
of Pygmy hunter-gatherers and farming populations started to diverge ~60,000 
years ago, coinciding with a period of important human migration both within 
and outside Africa. Much later, ~20,000 years ago, Western and Eastern Pygmies 
separated, concurrently with a period of climate change leading to large 
retreats of the equatorial rainforest into refugia.

The common origin of all Pygmies unmasked in this study led Etienne Patin, one 
of the leading authors, to conclude that they have probably inherited their 
distinctive shared physical traits, such as low height, from a common ancestor, 
rather than by convergent adaptation to the rainforest. However, complete 
genome-wide profiles of these populations are now needed, both to characterize 
more precisely their demographic history and to identify genes involved in the 
adaptation of these populations with different lifestyles to their specific 
ecological habitats.

Jadi:   Netanyahu prinsipnya TIDAK menolak adanya negara Palestina..

Ini langkah yang harus dicatat - dan dihargai.

Israel demands recognition   
 
 
Mitchell, left, reiterated his support for a two-state solution as he met 
Lieberman [AFP] Israel's
prime minister has told a visiting US envoy that the Palestinians must
recognise the Jewish state before it will discuss establishing an
independent Palestinian state.

Benyamin Netanyahu made the
remarks as he met George Mitchell, the US special envoy for the Middle
East, in Tel Aviv on Thursday. Israel
expects the Palestinians to first recognise Israel as a Jewish state
before talking about two states for two peoples, a senior official in
Netanyahu's office quoted the new prime minister as saying.
Earlier, after meeting Avigdor Lieberman, the Israeli foreign
minister, Mitchell had repeated Washington's support for a Palestinian
state.
I reiterated
to the foreign minister that US policy favours, with respect to the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict, a two-state solution which will have a
Palestinian state living in peace alongside the Jewish state of
Israel, he said.
We look forward also to efforts to achieving comprehensive peace throughout 
the region.

Committed
Jacky Rowland, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Jerusalem, said: This
is something that [US President Barack] Obama has overtly, clearly and
unambiguously committed himself to in speeches that he made to Europe
in the last few weeks.
IN VIDEO 
 
Jerusalem digging deepens Israeli-Palestinian rift  
More videos ...  
He really did state the US commitment to the two-state solution as
being the shape for a final agreement between the Palestinians and the
Israelis. 
However, Netanyahu has said that he wants any talks with Mahmoud
Abbas, the Palestinian president, to focus mainly on security and
economic issues.
Furthermore, Lieberman, an Israeli nationalist, has flatly rejected
a restart of the Israeli-Palestinian talks launched by George Bush, the
former US president, in Annapolis in 2007.

On Thursday, the
Israeli foreign minister, said that the peace process has reached a
dead end and that the new government will have to formulate new ideas
and approaches, according to a statement from his office.

Abdullah Abdullah, head of the PLO foreign affairs committee, told Al Jazeera 
that Netanyahu was not interested in negotiating.
He only puts this condition to block, to sabotage, any attempt by the American 
envoy move the peace process forward, he said.

Peace 'roadmap'

Israel
committed itself to the principle of a Palestinian state under the 2003
international roadmap for peace, which included a series of steps for
Israelis and Palestinians to follow, eventually resulting in
negotiations over core issues and the creation of a Palestinian state.

Under the Annapolis agreement, the two sides began discussing those final 
status issues last year.

Mitchell
was expected to travel to Ramallah in the occupied West Bank on Friday
to meet Abbas, who has insisted that the new Israeli cabinet commit
itself to a two-state solution before the two sides can resume any
talks.

The negotiations were halted during Israel's 22-day
assault on the Gaza Strip, which left more than 1,300 Palestinians,
mainly women and children, dead.

Three Subgroups of Neanderthals Identified

By Clara Moskowitz, LiveScience Staff Writer

posted: 14 April 2009 08:17 pm ET
A Neanderthal Family. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech

We tend to think of Neanderthals as one species of cavemen-like creatures, but 
now scientists say there were actually at least three different subgroups of 
Neanderthals.

Using computer simulations to analyze DNA sequence fragments from 12 
Neanderthal fossils, researchers found that the species can be separated into 
three, or maybe four, distinct genetic groups.

The evidence points to a subgroup of Neanderthals in Western Europe, another in 
Southern Europe near the Mediterranean, a third in Eastern Europe and the 
Middle East, and possibly a fourth in Western Asia. These groups have been 
postulated before, but this is the first study analyzing DNA data to look for 
genetic variations differentiating the subgroups.

Neanderthals are a hominid species that lived between about 130,000 and 30,000 
years ago. They coexisted with humans for a while, and may even have interbred 
with us.

Because the Neanderthals lived in a very vast territory, and their evolution 
took place over a very long time, we wonder if there were sub-populations, or 
if it was a unique population, said researcher Silvana Condemi, a 
paleoanthropologist at the Universite de la Mediterranee-CNRS-EFS in France. 
Other studies show differences between Neanderthals and modern humans. For the 
first time we are working just within Neanderthals and taking into account the 
diversity within that group.

Condemi and Virginie Fabre and Anna Degioanni, also of the Universite de la 
Mediterranee, describe their findings in the April 13 issue of the journal PLoS 
ONE.

The researchers tested various hypotheses, including that all Neanderthals 
belonged to a single homogeneous population, or that Neanderthals could be 
divided into two, three, or more subgroups. They found that the three- and 
four-group model best fit the data by accounting for the genetic discrepancies 
seen in the samples.

The authors admit that their categorization is based on limited data, since 
they only have fragments of mitochondrial DNA sequences from a small sample of 
individuals.

Princeton University paleoanthropologist Alan Mann agreed, and said it's too 
early to draw bounds around sub-populations because we don't have any data from 
individuals outside of the bounds, such as from Neanderthals in Africa or 
Southeast Asia.

My view is this is very interesting research but it's very premature in our 
study to be able to draw any but the most generalized and preliminary 
conclusions, he said in a phone interview. I like the data they present. But 
at the moment we have to be extremely careful about exactly what we make of 
this.

In the future, the researchers would like to compare their genetic data to what 
is known about physical distinctions among Neanderthals from different regions, 
as well as cultural differences, such as unique tool use among various 
populations.

What is nice is that there are some variations in the genetics, and we see 
also from the bones and teeth that there is some variation, Condemi told 
LiveScience. We give a confirmation that the Neanderthals are not one 
homogeneous group.

It is not known for sure what eventually caused Neanderthals to die out, while 
we Homo sapiens have survived to this day. Likely reasons for their demise are 
competition with humans and climate change.

[zamanku] washingtonpost.com: Scientists Find A DNA Change That Accounts For White Skin

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 loss. But the newly found glitch is the first found to play a role in 
the formation of normal white skin. The Penn State team calculates that the 
gene, known as slc24a5, is responsible for about one-third of the pigment loss 
that made black skin white. A few other as-yet-unidentified mutated genes 
apparently account for the rest.

Although precise dating is impossible, several scientists speculated on the 
basis of its spread and variation that the mutation arose between 20,000 and 
50,000 years ago. That would be consistent with research showing that a wave of 
ancestral humans migrated northward and eastward out of Africa about 50,000 
years ago.

Unlike most mutations, this one quickly overwhelmed its ancestral version, at 
least in Europe, suggesting it had a real benefit. Many scientists suspect that 
benefit has to do with vitamin D, made in the body with the help of sunlight 
and critical to proper bone development.

Sun intensity is great enough in equatorial regions that the vitamin can still 
be made in dark-skinned people despite the ultraviolet shielding effects of 
melanin. In the north, where sunlight is less intense and cold weather demands 
that more clothing be worn, melanin's ultraviolet shielding became a liability, 
the thinking goes.

Today that solar requirement is largely irrelevant because many foods are 
supplemented with vitamin D.

Some scientists said they suspect that white skin's rapid rise to genetic 
dominance may also be the product of sexual selection, a phenomenon of 
evolutionary biology in which almost any new and showy trait in a healthy 
individual can become highly prized by those seeking mates, perhaps because it 
provides evidence of genetic innovativeness.

Cheng and co-worker Victor A. Canfield said their discovery could have 
practical spinoffs. A gene so crucial to the buildup of melanin in the skin 
might be a good target for new drugs against melanoma, for example, a cancer of 
melanin cells in which slc24a5 works overtime.

But they and others agreed that, for better or worse, the finding's most 
immediate impact may be an escalating debate about the meaning of race.

Recent revelations that all people are more than 99.9 percent genetically 
identical has proved that race has almost no biological validity. Yet 
geneticists' claims that race is a phony construct have not rung true to many 
nonscientists -- and understandably so, said Vivian Ota Wang of the National 
Human Genome Research Institute in Bethesda.

You may tell people that race isn't real and doesn't matter, but they can't 
catch a cab, Ota Wang said. So unless we take that into account it makes us 
sound crazy.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Netanyahu 'ready for peace talks'

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Bagus dah...

Dari pada terus berbunuhan

Netanyahu 'ready for peace talks' 
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu has told Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas
he intends to resume talks and co-operation to promote peace.  
It was their first contact since Mr Netanyahu took office on 31 March. 
Mr Abbas initiated the telephone call, which Mr Netanyahu's office described as 
friendly and warm. 
The new Israeli leader has not publicly endorsed the creation of a
fully independent Palestinian state - a fundamental demand of the
Palestinians. 
An Israeli
statement said that during his conversation with Mr Abbas, Mr Netanyahu
recalled their past co-operation and conversations, and how he
intended to resume this in the future in order to advance peace. 
'Not binding'  
Mr Netanyahu leads a right-leaning coalition, which combines the centre-right, 
centre-left and far-right parties. 
During his campaign, he said he was willing to negotiate with the
Palestinians but that it was premature to talk of statehood. Instead,
he offered Palestinians economic peace. 
Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman, who leads
the right-wing Yisrael Beiteinu party, has dismissed past peace
initiatives by US administrations. 
He has also said the previous Israeli government's acceptance of Palestinian 
statehood was not binding. 
On Saturday, chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat reiterated his
administration's position that that for peace talks to resume, Israel
must declare its support for a two-state solution.

[zamanku] The Independent: When life as we know it became possible on Earth

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Di sorga apa ada oxygen?



When life as we know it became possible on Earth

The mystery of how our planet's atmosphere became rich in oxygen has finally 
been solved

By Steve Connor, Science editor

Thursday, 9 April 2009

It was one of the most important changes to have happened to the Earth's 
atmosphere and it was the reason why today we can breathe life-giving oxygen. 
And yet the Great Oxidation Event has remained a mystery – until now.

Without oxygen, life on Earth would not exist as we know it. It has provided 
the supercharged air that has fuelled an explosion in the diversity and size of 
all living organisms, from the smallest shrimp to the biggest dinosaur.

About 21 per cent of air is oxygen, a vital ingredient for living organisms to 
carry out the most efficient method of converting food into energy using 
aerobic respiration. Yet an oxygen-rich atmosphere did not always exist, and 
the explanation for how it came about has eluded generations of scientists.

Now a team of researchers led by Kurt Konhauser of the University of Alberta in 
Edmonton, Canada, has come up with a convincing explanation for why oxygen 
suddenly began to accumulate in the early atmosphere of the Earth about 2.7 
billion years ago, when life consisted of nothing more complex than single-cell 
microbes.

The Great Oxidation Event happened, they believe, when one group of 
oxygen-destroying microbes began to die off, leaving another group of 
oxygen-producing microbes to gain the ascendancy. The trigger for this event 
was a fall in a trace metal called nickel, which led to the inexorable rise of 
oxygen – and life – on Earth.

The role of nickel in the story of atmospheric oxygen is new. If Professor 
Konhauser and his colleagues are right then it could explain not just the 
explosive evolution of life, but how the Earth itself was shaped, because it 
the erosive power of oxygen that was so crucial to the sculpturing of rocks, 
the formation of rivers and the carving out of the coastlines.

The Great Oxidation Event is what irreversibly changed surface environments on 
Earth and ultimately made advanced life possible. It was a major turning point 
in the evolution of life on our planet, and we are getting closer to 
understanding how it occurred, said Dominic Papineau of the Carnegie 
Institution in Washington.

Oxygen as a molecule is so reactive that it soon disappears unless it is being 
constantly produced. The concentration of oxygen in the atmosphere today is 
maintained by plants carrying out photosynthesis – the conversion of sunlight 
into chemical energy and oxygen.

The first photosynthetic microbes, the blue-green algae or cyanobacteria, are 
thought to have evolved about 300 million years before the Great Oxidation 
Event 2.5 billion years ago. But the oxygen they produced was quickly destroyed 
by the methane gas produced by the far more numerous methanogenic bacteria, 
which could breathe without oxygen using the less efficient method of anaerobic 
respiration.

These methanogenic bacteria, which still live in the waterlogged, 
oxygen-starved environment of swamps and wetlands, crucially need nickel to 
survive. Without a rich supply of nickel, the vital enzymes of these 
methane-producing microbes are fatally undermined.

The scientists found that by analysing a type of sedimentary rock known as 
banded-iron formations they could monitor levels of nickel in the oceans of the 
early Earth dating as far back as 3.8 billion years ago. They found there was a 
marked fall in nickel between 2.7 billion and 2.5 billion years ago – the same 
time as the Great Oxidation Event.

The timing fits very well. The drop in nickel could have set the stage for the 
Great Oxidation Event. And from what we know about living methogens, lower 
levels of nickel would have cut back methane production, Dr Papineau said.

The nickel connection was not something anyone had considered before. But our 
study indicates that it may have had a huge impact on the Earth's environment 
and on the history of life, he said.

Professor Konhauser said that the study, published in Nature, supports the idea 
that these methane-producing microbes prevented oxygen from accumulating in the 
early atmosphere for hundreds of millions of years.

The scientists believe that nickel levels fell because the Earth's crust had 
cooled down during this period, which meant that there was less nickel being 
ejected from volcanic eruptions into the ocean.

We're certain from looking at the rocks in banded-iron formations that nickel 
dropped about 2.5 billion years ago to about half its previous value. The issue 
is how the methane-producing microbes responded to this decrease in nickel. We 
think they died off, Professor Konhauser said.

Although the Great Oxidation Event did not lead to a sudden rise of oxygen to 
levels like those experienced today, it did cause a significant rise that has 
never been reversed.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Obama reaches out to Muslim world

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Obama reaches out to Muslim world 
During his first visit to a mainly Muslim state, President Barack Obama
has declared that the US is not and will never be at war with Islam.  
Addressing the Turkish
parliament, Mr Obama called for a greater partnership with the Muslim
world and said the US would soon launch outreach programmes. 
America's relationship with the Muslim world cannot and will not be based on 
opposition to al-Qaeda, he said. 
Mr Obama also said Washington supported Turkey's efforts to join the EU. 
Earlier, at a news conference with his Turkish counterpart, Abdullah
Gul, he urged Turkey to help bridge the gap between the Muslim and
Western worlds. 
He said his visit was a statement about the importance of Turkey, not just to 
the United States, but to the world. 
“ Obama is a seducer, in the nicest possible way of course. He smiles and
refers to himself as Hussein and does all the other things that make
Europeans swoon. Then he has his way. Or does he...?  ” 
Justin Webb BBC North America editor 

The US president began his visit to Turkey on Monday morning by laying
a wreath at the tomb of the founder of modern Turkish state, Mustafa
Kemal Ataturk, whose vision and courage he praised. 
He then travelled to the presidential palace in Ankara
for talks with President Abdullah Gul, before giving an address to the
Turkish Grand National Assembly. 
Mr Obama devoted much of his speech to urging a greater
bond between Americans and Muslims, admitting that the trust that
binds us has been strained. 
Let me say this as clearly as I can: the United States is not and will never 
be at war with Islam, he stated. 
In fact, our partnership with the Muslim world is critical in rolling
back a fringe ideology that people of all faiths reject. 
He said; The United States has been enriched by Muslim Americans. Many
other Americans have Muslims in their family, or have lived in a
Muslim-majority country - I know, because I am one of them. 
And when people look back on this time, let it be said of America that we 
extended the hand of friendship, he said. 
There is an old Turkish proverb: 'You cannot put out fire with flames.' 
'Crucial ally'  
In his speech, Mr Obama said the US considered Turkey a critical
ally, despite the deterioration of their relations over the war in
Iraq. 
He said that while they had not always agreed on everything, the two states 
were stronger when they worked together. 
OBAMA'S TRANSATLANTIC VISIT 

* 2 April: G20 summit in London 
* 3 April: Obama meets Sarkozy in France and Merkel in Germany 
* 4 April: Leaders hold Nato summit in Strasbourg 
* 5 April: Obama in Prague for US-EU summit 
* 6-7 April: Obama visits Turkey 

That is why we must listen to one another, and seek common ground, he said. 
The president also reiterated that the US government strongly supported
Turkey's bid to become a member of the European Union. 
Europe gains by diversity of ethnicity, tradition and
faith - it is not diminished by it, he said to a round of applause
from the audience. And Turkish membership would broaden and strengthen
Europe's foundation once more. 
The EU agreed to open accession talks with Ankara in
2004, but in recent years Turkey has made little progress with
democratic reforms which would improve its chances of membership,
correspondents say. 
Later in his address, Mr Obama said the US strongly
supported the full normalisation of relations between Turkey and
Armenia. 
At his earlier news conference with President Gul, he
had stood by his 2008 assertion that the killing of Armenians by
Ottoman Turks in 1915 constituted genocide - without repeating the
word. 
The issue remains highly sensitive between the governments of Armenia
and Turkey, which denies those killed were victims of systematic
genocide, and has prevented normal relations between them for many
years. 
During his election campaign, Mr Obama said the
Armenian genocide is not an allegation, a personal opinion, or a point
of view, but rather a widely documented fact supported by an
overwhelming body of historical evidence. 
The BBC's Sarah Rainsford in Ankara says the fact that
Mr Obama chose to come to Turkey on only his second purely bilateral
visit has been welcomed as a sign that he wants to re-engage with it. 
Public support for the US dropped to a record low
during the Bush administration, fuelled mostly by fierce opposition to
the invasion of Iraq, our correspondent says.

Obama promotes nuclear-free world

US President Barack Obama is to outline his vision of a world free of nuclear 
weapons in a major speech in Europe.

He
is expected to call for a global summit on nuclear security and the
forging of new partnerships to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons.

Proliferation is top of the agenda at a summit Mr Obama is attending with EU 
leaders in the Czech capital, Prague.

The summit comes hours after North Korea controversially launched a rocket 
despite international warnings.

Mr
Obama condemned the launch, saying that North Korea had further
isolated itself from the community of nations, and should refrain from
further provocative actions.

To achieve a global ban on
nuclear testing, the Obama Administration will work to bring the
Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT) into force, the White House said
in a statement issued before Mr Obama's speech.

It added that Mr
Obama would also seek Senate ratification of the CTBT - an agreement
that would ban all nuclear explosions for any purpose - which cannot
currently come into effect as nuclear powers such as the US and China
have not ratified it, and India and Pakistan have not signed it.

In
his speech, Mr Obama is also expected to seek to negotiate a new
international treaty that verifiably ends the production of fissile
materials for nuclear weapons, the statement said.

Extermination of cities

Speaking
in Strasbourg on Friday, the US president said he would lay out an
agenda to seek the goal of a world without nuclear weapons.

He would also address issues such as the security of nuclear material and the 
trade in illicit weapons, he said.
OBAMA'S TRANSATLANTIC VISIT
# 3 April: Obama meets Sarkozy in France and Merkel in Germany
# 4 April: Leaders walk across the Rhine and hold North Atlantic Council 
meeting in Strasbourg
# 5 April: Obama in Prague for US-EU summit
# 6-7 April: Obama visits Turkey

Even
with the Cold War over, the spread of nuclear weapons or the theft of
nuclear material could lead to the extermination of any city on the
planet, Mr Obama said.

His speech comes days after he and
Russian President Dmitry Medvedev - meeting on the sidelines of the G20
summit in London - agreed to reopen negotiations about reducing nuclear
warheads.

They aim to produce a new arms control treaty to
replace the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (Start) that expires at the
end of the year.

Under Mr Obama's predecessor, George W Bush,
tensions arose between the two sides over the US plan for a missile
defence shield, parts of which would be stationed in Poland and the
Czech Republic.

The new US administration is currently reviewing
the plans, which are meant to counter nuclear attacks from countries
like Iran and North Korea but which Moscow sees as a threat.

European pledges

After his speech Mr Obama will meet EU leaders to discuss issues such as 
climate change and energy security.

He will then fly to Turkey for the final stop of his European tour.

The
US president arrived in Prague late on Saturday from the Nato summit in
Strasbourg, where he secured pledges from European nations to send more
troops to Afghanistan to provide security for elections in August.

Ahead
of his arrival several hundred people gathered in Prague to protest
against the missile shield. Further protests are expected on Sunday.

Mr
Obama's first trip to Eastern Europe, 20 years since the end of the
Cold War, was supposed to be the highlight of the Czech presidency of
the EU.

But his official engagements there have been scaled down
in the wake of Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek's resignation late last
month, after losing a no-confidence motion.

Mr Topolanek - who
has also described Mr Obama's stimulus plan as the road to hell -
will remain in office until a new cabinet is appointed or fresh
elections are held.

Obama calls for end to nuclear weapons in Prague speech
US President Barack Obama delivers his public speech near the Prague Castle
US President Barack Obama has announced ambitious plans to rid the world of 
nuclear weapons at a speech in Prague. Yet his support for a controversial 
missile shield could anger Russia.

An estimated 30,000 people streamed into the historic center of Prague on 
Sunday to hear Obama deliver his first major public speech in Europe since 
becoming president. With Prague Castle as a backdrop, Obama proposed measures 
to eliminate existing nuclear weapons, stop further nuclear proliferation and 
prevent terrorists from acquiring nuclear weapons or materials. The US leader's 
speech comes as the Czech Republic marks the 20th anniversary of the fall of 
communism.

As the only nuclear power who have used a nuclear weapon, the United States 
has a moral responsibility to act, Obama said. We cannot succeed in this 
endeavor alone, but we can start it.

Call for action on North Korea

Bildes mit der Bildunterschrift:  Obama singled out North Korea in his remarks

Obama's focus on nuclear non-proliferation took on special significance as it 
came just hours after North Korea announced it had launched a long-range rocket 
into space. The rocket was launched in defiance of warnings from North Korea's 
Asian neighbors and Washington.

Obama condemned the North Korean move as a provocative act.

This provocation underscores the need for action, Obama said. Violations 
must be punished. Words must mean something. Now is the time for a strong 
international response.

Pyongyang has said it was putting a communications satellite into orbit. But 
Japan, South Korea and Washington believe the launch was a screen to test a 
ballistic missile.

Obama supports missile shield

Prague, Czech Republic,Bildunterschrift: Großansicht des Bildes mit der

Obama's speech does not mean the US has immediate plans to get rid of all its 
nuclear weapons. The United States will maintain a safe, secure and reliable 
nuclear capability to deter adversaries and reassure the US's allies, Obama 
promised.

He also indicated that the United States would go forward with a 
controversial missile defense system planned for the Czech Republic and Poland. 
The proposal has angered Russia, despite US assurances that the system is meant 
to protect Europe from an attack by Iran.

As long as the threat from Iran persists, we will go forward with the missile 
system, Obama said. If the Iranian threat is eliminated, we will have a 
stronger basis for security, and the driving force for missile construction in 
Europe will be removed.

That announcement could heighten tensions with Russia. Yet Obama said he's 
eager to negotiate a legally-binding arms reduction treaty with Russia. The US 
will also seek to ratify a nuclear test ban treaty.

Obama discusses environment, economy

Obama's keynote speech in Prague is a major highlight of his five-nation trip, 
which marks his first major foray onto the world stage since becoming president 
in January. Last week, Obama attended a summit in London on the financial 
crisis and marked NATO's 60th anniversary in Germany and France.

He will spend Sunday meeting with leaders of the 27-member European Union in 
Prague. European leaders are expected to press Obama on two global issues -- 
the economic crisis and climate change.

He will also meet with Czech Prime Minister Mirek Topolanek, whose country 
holds the EU rotating presidency. The outgoing prime minister, who last month 
lost a vote of confidence in the Czech parliament, recently denounced Obama's 
massive economic stimulus plan as the road to hell.

The next stop on Obama's first major international trip will be Turkey.

Anglican Reverend: We Owe Darwin an Apology

Tuesday , September 16, 2008

AP
ADVERTISEMENTClick here to find out more!

LONDON — 
The Church of England owes Charles Darwin an apology for its hostile 
19th-century reaction to the naturalist's theory of evolution through natural 
selection, a cleric wrote on an Anglican Web site launched Monday.

The Rev. Malcolm Brown, who heads the church's public affairs department, 
issued the statement to mark Darwin's bicentenary and the 150th anniversary of 
the seminal work On the Origin of Species, both of which fall next year.

Brown said the Church of England should say it is sorry for misunderstanding 
him at the time he released his findings and, by getting our first reaction 
wrong, encouraging others to misunderstand [Darwin] still.

• Click here to visit FOXNews.com's Evolution  Paleontology Center.

The Church of England said Brown's statement reflected its position on Darwin 
but did not constitute an official apology.

The church's stance sets it apart from fundamentalist Christians, who believe 
evolutionary theory is incompatible with the biblical story of the Earth's 
creation.

Darwin was born into the Church of England, educated at a church boarding 
school and trained to become an Anglican priest.

However, his theory that species evolve over generations through a process of 
natural selection brought him into conflict with the church.

The Church of England did not take an official stance against Darwin's 
theories, but many senior Anglicans reacted with hostility to his ideas, 
arguing against them at public debates.

At an Oxford University debate in 1860, the bishop of Oxford, Samuel 
Wilberforce, famously asked scientist Thomas Huxley whether it was through his 
grandfather or his grandmother that he claimed to be descended from a monkey.

Critics included the Rev. John Stevens Henslow and Adam Sedgwick, both 
scientists who had taught Darwin at Cambridge.

Sedgwick wrote that he found some of Darwin's ideas utterly false and 
grievously mischievous.

Brown said that from a modern perspective, it was hard to avoid the thought 
that the reaction against Darwin was based on what would now be called the 
yuck factor ... when he proposed a lineage from apes to humans.

Brown called for a rapprochement between Christianity and Darwinism.

The bishop of Swindon, Lee Rayfield, who also is an immunologist, said religion 
and science were not mutually exclusive.

He said he opposed Christians for whom evolution is equated with atheism as 
well as Darwinists who felt ideas about evolution completely undermine any 
kind of credibility for God.

That's completely wrong, he told British Broadcasting Corp. radio. It's a 
false polarization.

This is not the first time a cleric or a church has been pressed to apologize 
for past actions. In 1992, Pope John Paul II said the Roman Catholic Church was 
wrong to condemn astronomer Galileo Galilei for maintaining that the Earth is 
not the center of the universe.

The Church of England said sorry two years ago for its role in the 
trans-Atlantic slave trade.

Still, a descendant of Darwin's said the Anglicans' latest bout of 
soul-searching served little purpose.

Why bother? the scientist's great-great-grandson Andrew Darwin was quoted as 
saying by the Daily Mail newspaper. When an apology is made after 200 years, 
it's not so much to right a wrong, but to make the person or organization 
making the apology feel better.

Vatican hosts Darwin conference  By David Willey 
 BBC News, Rome 

The Vatican is sponsoring a five day conference to mark the 150th
anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species.  
The subject is the compatibility of evolution and creation. 
It is one of two separate international academic conferences being sponsored by 
the Vatican this year. 
They aim to re-examine the work of scientific thinkers whose
revolutionary ideas challenged religious belief: Galileo and Charles
Darwin. 
Scientists,
philosophers and theologians from around the world are gathering at the
prestigious Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome to discuss the
compatibility of Darwin's theory of evolution and Catholic teaching. 
Christian churches were long hostile to Darwin because
his theory conflicted with the literal biblical account of creation. 
But the Catholic Church never condemned Darwin, as it condemned and silenced 
Galileo. 
Pope John Paul II said that evolution was more than a hypothesis. 
“ The design of organisms is not what would be expected from an intelligent 
engineer  ” 
Prof Francisco Ayala 
Yet as recently as 2006 a leading Catholic Cardinal, Christoff
Schoenborn, of Vienna, a former student and friend of Pope Benedict XVI
caused controversy by saying that Darwin's theory of natural selection
was incompatible with Christian belief. 
A leading American scholar of biology, Prof Francisco
Ayala, plans to tell the conference that the so-called theory of
intelligent design, proposed by Creationists, is flawed. 
The design of organisms is not what would be expected from an intelligent 
engineer, but imperfect and worse, he said. 
Defects, dysfunctions, oddities, waste and cruelty pervade the living world.

Evolution fine but no apology to Darwin: Vatican
Tue Sep 16, 2008 4:07pm EDT
By Philip Pullella
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) - The Vatican said on Tuesday the theory of
evolution was compatible with the Bible but planned no posthumous
apology to Charles Darwin for the cold reception it gave him 150 years
ago.
Archbishop Gianfranco Ravasi, the Vatican's culture minister, was
speaking at the announcement of a Rome conference of scientists,
theologians and philosophers to be held next March marking the 150th
anniversary of the publication of Darwin's The Origin of Species.
Christian churches were long hostile to Darwin because his theory conflicted 
with the literal biblical account of creation.
Earlier this week a leading Anglican churchman, Rev. Malcolm Brown,
said the Church of England owed Darwin an apology for the way his ideas
were received by Anglicans in Britain.
Pope Pius XII described evolution as a valid scientific approach to
the development of humans in 1950 and Pope John Paul reiterated that in
1996. But Ravasi said the Vatican had no intention of apologizing for
earlier negative views.
Maybe we should abandon the idea of issuing apologies as if history
was a court eternally in session, he said, adding that Darwin's
theories were never condemned by the Catholic Church nor was his book
ever banned.
Creationism is the belief that God created the world in six days as
described in the Bible. The Catholic Church does not read the Genesis
account of creation literally, saying it is an allegory for the way God
created the world.
Some other Christians, mostly conservative Protestants in the United
States, read Genesis literally and object to evolution being taught in
biology class in public high schools.
Sarah Palin, the Republican candidate for the U.S. vice presidency,
said in 2006 that she supported teaching both creationism and evolution
in schools but has subsequently said creationism does not have to be
part of curriculum.
THEISTIC EVOLUTION
The Catholic Church teaches theistic evolution, a stand that
accepts evolution as a scientific theory and sees no reason why God
could not have used a natural evolutionary process in the forming of
the human species.
It objects to using evolution as the basis for an atheist philosophy
that denies God's existence or any divine role in creation. It also
objects to using Genesis as a scientific text.
As Ravasi put it, creationism belongs to the strictly theological sphere and 
could not be used ideologically in science.
Professor Philip Sloan of Notre Dame University, which is jointly
holding next year's conference with Rome's Pontifical Gregorian
University, said the gathering would be an important contribution to
explaining the Catholic stand on evolution.
In the United States, and now elsewhere, we have an ongoing public
debate over evolution that has social, political and religious
dimensions, he said.
Most of this debate has been taking place without a strong Catholic
theological presence, and the discussion has suffered accordingly, he
said.
Pope Benedict discussed these issues with his former doctoral
students at their annual meeting in 2006. In a speech in Paris last
week, he spoke out against biblical literalism.

[zamanku] Church of England: Good religion needs good science

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 this be?

The Church of England in 1860 was already facing challenges to its former 
pre-eminence. Freethinking and non-conformist Christianity were confronting the 
power of the established church – and then came Darwin. These were nervous 
times for Anglicans, and when worldly power is thought of as God-given, threats 
to power are perceived as attacks on God. What was true for Anglicans in 1860 
is largely true for all kinds of Christians today, although (depending where 
you are in the world) the threat may be perceived to come from radical Islam, 
secularism, consumerism or atheism. The cultures within which Christians try to 
be faithful are widely seen to be hostile, at least in some respects, and 
discipleship means, at some level, standing against some social trends. The 
problem for all Christians is discerning where the surrounding culture is 
really a threat and where it is compatible with our understanding of God. 
Because “science” has been widely regarded
 as offering a total theory of everything; because some scientists have 
encouraged this claim; perhaps because we all know how reliant we are on 
scientific ideas which we barely understand and which make us nervous of our 
ignorance; and perhaps because the churches have not been good at equipping 
people to see God at work in the contemporary world – for all these reasons and 
others, a parody of science has become a focus for certain forms of social 
unease. In so far as the practice of science has its hubristic side, there is a 
case for science to answer. In so far as 'Social Darwinism' has diminished our 
sense of being human and being in relationships, there are real problems to 
address. But first it is important to recognise that the anti-evolutionary 
fervour in some corners of the churches may be a kind of proxy issue for other 
discontents; and, perhaps most of all, an indictment of the churches’ failure 
to tell their own story – Jesus’s story
 – with conviction in a way which works with the grain of the world as God has 
revealed it to be, both through the Bible and in the work of scientists of 
Darwin’s calibre.

Rapproachment between Darwin and Christian faith

At a university in Kansas, I asked a biology professor how he coped with 
teaching Darwin’s theories to students whose churches insisted that evolution 
was heresy and whose schools taught creationism. “No problem,” he replied, “the 
kids know that if they want a good job they need a degree, and if they want a 
degree they have to work with evolution theory. Creationism is for church, as 
far as they’re concerned. Here, they’re Darwinists.” Perhaps he was 
over-cynical. But he was also pointing to young lives which could not be lived 
with integrity – the very opposite of how Christians are called to live. There 
is no integrity to be found either in rejecting Darwin’s ideas wholesale or in 
elevating them into the kind of grand theory which reduces humanity to the sum 
of our evolutionary urges. For the sake of human integrity – and thus for the 
sake of good Christian living – some rapprochement between Darwin and Christian 
faith is
 essential.

Charles Darwin: 200 years from your birth, the Church of England owes you an 
apology for misunderstanding you and, by getting our first reaction wrong, 
encouraging others to misunderstand you still. We try to practice the old 
virtues of 'faith seeking understanding' and hope that makes some amends. But 
the struggle for your reputation is not over yet, and the problem is not just 
your religious opponents but those who falsely claim you in support of their 
own interests. Good religion needs to work constructively with good science – 
and I dare to suggest that the opposite may be true as well.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: UN appoints Gaza war-crimes team

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
UN appoints Gaza war-crimes team 
The UN has appointed South African judge and former war crimes
prosecutor Richard Goldstone to lead a fact-finding mission to the Gaza
Strip.  
Mr Goldstone will
investigate alleged violations of international law during the recent
conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants. 
Martin Uhomoibhi, president of the UN Human Rights Council, said the mission 
would be independent and impartial. 
Israel calls the council biased and has previously refused to co-operate. 
Mr Goldstone will lead a four-member team, which also includes experts
from Pakistan, Britain, and Ireland, in investigating all violations
of international humanitarian law before, during and after the Israeli
campaign in Gaza that ended on 18 January. 
It's in the interest of the victims. It brings
acknowledgment of what happened to them. It can assist the healing
process, Mr Goldstone said. 
I would hope it's in the interests of all the political actors, too. 
The fact-finding mission, which will aim to provide clarity on the
legality of the deaths and destruction, is due to start work in the
region within weeks, the UN said. 
Israel 'singled out'  
The council voted to set up the investigation into at a special meeting
in January, after widespread allegations of war crimes committed by
Israeli forces in Gaza. 
“ I believe I can approach the daunting task that I have accepted in an 
even-handed and impartial manner  ” 
Richard Goldstone 

However, the Israeli army says its operations in the Gaza Strip were
carried out in compliance with the rules of warfare under international
law. 
It says it took numerous measures to avoid causing harm to the civilian 
population. 
The Palestinian militant group Hamas is widely accused of basing its
forces within heavily populated areas, allegations it denies. 
The Israeli government has in the past refused to
co-operate with UN human rights council investigations, including one
led by Archbishop Desmond Tutu. 
It is not clear whether Israel will co-operate with the new investigation. 
This committee is instructed not to seek out the truth but to single
out Israel for alleged crimes, said Yigal Palmor, spokesman for the
Israeli Foreign Ministry. 
He said the council was a discredited body. 
'Shock' appointment  
Mr Goldstone is a former UN chief prosecutor for war crimes in
Yugoslavia and Rwanda. He is also a former judge at the South African
constitutional court. 
He is also on the board of governors at Hebrew University in Jerusalem. 
Mr Goldstone said he was shocked, as a Jew, to be invited to head the 
mission. 
I've taken a deep interest in what happens in Israel. I'm associated with 
organisations that have worked in Israel. 
And I believe I can approach the daunting task that I have accepted in an 
even-handed and impartial manner.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: 'No halt' to Gaza arms smuggling

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Jadi, walaupun sudah lebih dari seribu  orang Palestina dibunuhi serdadu Israel 
dan ratusan rumah dihancurkan dan gedung PBB juga dibom, serangan Israel ke 
Gaza itu ternyata juga sia-sia saja..


  


BBC NEWS
'No halt' to Gaza arms smuggling

The flow of explosives and weapons smuggled into Gaza has continued since 
Israel's military operation, a senior Israeli intelligence official has said.

Shin Bet security service head Yuval Diskin said 22 tonnes of explosives, 
dozens of rockets and hundreds of mortar rounds had entered Gaza.

But he said rockets attacks were reduced and Egyptian attempts to combat the 
smuggling had improved.

Israel said the offensive aimed to cut down Palestinian rocket attacks.

In his briefing to the cabinet on Sunday, Mr Diskin also noted a drop in the 
number of rockets fired into Israel in recent weeks.

He said Hamas, which controls Gaza, was carrying out arrests of members of 
smaller militant factions to stop attacks, and had signed an agreement with the 
Islamic Jihad group to end attacks.

Among the items smuggled through tunnels under the border with Egypt in recent 
weeks, were also 45 tonnes of raw materials for the production of weapons, 
hundreds of mortar shells and dozens of anti-tank and anti-aircraft missiles, 
he said.

Tunnels trade

The tunnels are also used for smuggling in goods that cannot enter Gaza under 
Israel's blockade of the strip, which allows only humanitarian basics in 
through the crossings from Israel.

Halting weapons smuggling was a key Israeli demand in the ceasefire deal Israel 
and Hamas initially sought to negotiate in the wake of the operation.

Attempts to reach a deal which would secure the border and ease the blockade 
have faltered, although the two sides have largely held to the unilateral 
ceasefires announced to end the 22-day January conflict.

But Israel has pressured the US, EU and Egypt to step up attempts to combat the 
smuggling.

Last week outgoing Prime Minister Ehud Olmert made comments widely seen as 
tacit confirmation of reports that Israel had launched air strikes on a convoy 
in Sudan said to be carrying weapons for Gaza.

[zamanku] BBC : Clinton concern over demolitions

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

BBC NEWS

Clinton concern over demolitions

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton says Israeli demolitions of Palestinian 
homes in Israeli-occupied East Jerusalem are of deep concern.

She renewed her commitment to an Israeli-Palestinian peace settlement, saying 
it was a commitment I carry in my heart, not just my portfolio.

She was speaking after meeting Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in 
the West Bank.

It is Mrs Clinton's her first trip to the region as secretary of state.

In Jerusalem and Tel Aviv on Tuesday, Mrs Clinton expressed unshakeable 
support for Israel, but restated the Obama administration's commitment to the 
creation of a Palestinian state alongside Israel.

She will not meet leaders of the rival Palestinian group Hamas, which has 
dismissed her visit.

Observers say they are watching for signs that Washington is determined to make 
advances on the - until now intractable - problem of securing a peace 
settlement in the Middle East.

'Unhelpful'

Mrs Clinton said the unhelpful planned demolition of homes in 
Israeli-occupied East Jerusalem would be taken up with Israel's government.

Dozens of houses - which Israel says were illegally constructed, but which 
Palestinians say Israel refuses to permit them to build - are due to be torn 
down in Silwan to make way for a park. The demolition orders have been 
vociferously condemned by Palestinian leaders.

They were among the topics discussed by Mrs Clinton and Mr Abbas during their 
talks, which also included the situation in the war-ravaged Gaza Strip and 
moribund Israeli-Palestinian peace talks.

Mrs Clinton said she was proud to stand by President Abbas, and to deliver a 
message from our country: the United States supports the Palestinian Authority 
as the only legitimate government of the Palestinian people.

The US has refused to speak to Hamas, which leads the Gaza Strip, saying it is 
a terrorist organisation.

Earlier, Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum dismissed Mrs Clinton's visit, saying 
her statements so far had been totally biased in favour of the Zionist 
occupation and do not reflect any change in American foreign policy, AP news 
agency reported.

'Time is ripe'

Mrs Clinton said the US aimed to foster conditions in which a Palestinian state 
could be fully realised, adding that time is of the essence.

On the plight of residents of Gaza, recently hit by a 22-day Israeli 
bombardment, she pledged a commitment to reconstruction, saying a child 
growing up in Gaza... has the same right to go to school, see a doctor, and 
live with a roof over her head as a child in any country.

On peace negotiations, Mr Abbas said he believed the time is ripe to put 
final-status issues - issues including the status of East Jerusalem, 
Palestinian refugees, borders, and Israelis settlements - and he added, 
Palestinian prisoners held by Israel.

He said he respected Israelis' choice at the ballot box, but added that the 
Israeli government should commit itself to the peace roadmap and the 
two-state solution.

A year of peace talks between Mr Abbas' administration and the Israelis have 
yielded few results.

Meanwhile, Israeli settlement-building has continued, with nearly half a 
million settlers now occupying land in the West Bank and East Jerusalem in 
contravention to international law, though Israel disputes this.

The BBC's Middle East editor, Jeremy Bowen, says that the big question is 
whether the new US administration of Barack Obama is prepared to twist Mr 
Netanyahu's arm on the two-state solution.

He says there are signs of a growing feeling in Washington that allowing Israel 
total freedom to decide its own policy on the Palestinians may not, in fact, be 
a productive way to address Israel's security problems.

But he says the main Israeli objection to a Palestinian state is that if it was 
controlled by an enemy entity such as Hamas, that could in fact be disastrous 
for Israeli security.

'The Palestinians' own deep internal divisions are also an obstacle to an 
effective settlement.

Gaza is in the hands of the Islamist Hamas faction, while the West Bank 
administration is led by the more secular Fatah group - though Israeli forces 
occupy large swathes of the West Bank and both territories are subject to 
external Israeli controls.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Challenge of Israeli settlements

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

. There's a wall dividing East Jerusalem from the West Bank,
preventing most Palestinians from accessing the best schools, the best
hospitals or going to pray in mosques or churches there. 
More and more East Jerusalem land is being set aside
for Jewish settlers. Then, within the West Bank there are more than 600
physical obstacles placed by Israel blocking Palestinian movement. 
Israeli settlers occupy 60% of the land there and they
are scattered all over the places. This further fragments the territory
and very much undermines the economy and prospects for improvement in
the Palestinian situation. 
Israel says this can change with peace. Regarding
settlements, checkpoints, the West Bank barrier, it insists what goes
up, can come down. But Palestinians focus on what they call facts on

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Chasing dreams of future peace

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Chasing dreams of future peace  By Jeremy Bowen 
 Middle East editor, BBC News 

A journey to Ramallah from Jerusalem tells you a lot about the state of peace 
and war between Israel and the Palestinians.  
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton does not get the delays at checkpoints 
that most people face. 
But if she looked out of the window of her armour-plated SUV she would
have seen some of the ways this place is changing, and why that
undercuts the policy that she is here to promote. 
Throughout her visit, speaking to Israelis and
Palestinians, Mrs Clinton has been saying that she wants to create a
Palestinian state alongside Israel - the so-called two-state solution
to the conflict. 
She says that making a Palestinian state possible is a commitment she
carries in her heart, not just in her portfolio as secretary of state. 
But when others who also believed for years in two
states look out of their car windows at what is happening in the West
Bank and Jerusalem, they cannot help thinking that their dream has
gone. 
Big chunks of the land that Palestinians want to use
for their state has been taken for Jewish settlements, for the network
of security roads and military bases that protect them and connect them
to Israel, and for the complex of walls and hi-tech fences that make up
the separation barrier. 
And as the land goes, so does trust, on both sides. 
Palestinians find it easy now to ignore politicians when they talk
about peace, because they have heard it so many times before. 
The years of violence have also worn down Israelis.
Many who used to think a Palestinian state would make their lives safer
and more secure now think it would turn into Greater Hamastan - a
bigger version of Gaza and an easier place to use as a base for
launching rockets into the heart of Israel. 
More than vigour  
Even those who still have some hope that the two-state solution is
possible and desirable believe that the next few years are the last
possible opportunity to make it happen. 
“ Mrs Clinton's words have been almost indistinguishable from those of her 
predecessor Condoleezza Rice  ” 

Mrs Clinton hinted at that herself. She said that time was of the
essence, and that the Obama administration was going to work vigorously
to get the two sides to make an agreement. 
It will take more than vigour. The Israeli Prime
Minister designate, Benjamin Netanyahu gets his core support from
parties who reject the idea of a Palestinian state. 
If they dominate his governing coalition - when and if
it is formed - then a collision with Washington looks inevitable, if
President Obama and Secretary Clinton are as keen as they say on two
states. 
For this to work, the Americans are going to have to
persuade the Israelis that their security will be enhanced, not
jeopardised. In the current climate that will be difficult. 
Paying lip-service?  
The Americans will also have to show Palestinians that they are
prepared to lean on their Israeli friends. Pressure on Palestinians
costs nothing for American politicians. In fact its absence can lose
them votes. 
“ The decisions taken by Mr Bush made the divisions broader and deeper  ” 

But pressure on Israel is an entirely different matter, and it will be
necessary if Israel is to stop expanding Jewish settlements in the
occupied territories and is to contemplate ever removing some of them. 
In her public statements while she has been here Mrs
Clinton's words have been almost indistinguishable from those of her
predecessor Condoleezza Rice. Both women called for peace and for a
state called Palestine alongside Israel, and both said they would work
to make it a reality. 
By the time Secretary Rice left office the vision
looked as distant as ever. The difference between them hinges on the
determination of their bosses. 
Former President George W Bush always seemed to be paying lip-service to the 
project. 
What Palestinians and Israelis do not know yet is whether President
Obama will be different. His intentions seem clear, but he has a very
crowded and complicated agenda. 
In the Middle East alone, what he does with the
Israelis and the Palestinians will be shaped by what he also wants to
do across the Arab and Muslim countries of the world. 
And the fault lines in the small area that makes up
Israel, the West Bank and Gaza have a habit of producing challenges
that demand action. 
The decisions taken by Mr Bush made the divisions broader and deeper. 
It will be clear soon enough whether President Obama has what it takes to 
bridge the gaps, and even close a few of them.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS; Billions pledged to rebuild Gaza

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Billions pledged to rebuild Gaza 
International donors have pledged almost $4.5bn (£3.2bn) in aid to the
Palestinians, chiefly to rebuild Gaza after Israel's recent offensive.  
US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Washington would donate $900m, and 
vigorously seek to advance peace. 
Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas told a summit in Egypt cash was insufficient 
without a political solution. 
Israel, which has been fighting Gaza militants, refuses to allow building 
materials into Gaza for reconstruction. 
As well as the $900m promised by the US, Saudi Arabia pledged $1bn (£703m) for 
Gaza. 
Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit says the total of $4.48bn
from about 70 countries was beyond of our expectations. 
The Palestinian Authority had requested only $2.8bn (£2bn). 
Mrs Clinton told the conference in the Red Sea resort of Sharm
el-Sheikh: Our response to today's crisis in Gaza cannot be separated
from our broader efforts to achieve a comprehensive peace. 
During her first visit to the Middle East as top US
diplomat, she said the aim of the aid was to foster conditions in
which a Palestinian state can be fully realised. 
Some 1,300 Palestinians, of whom 412 were children,
were killed and thousands of homes and businesses destroyed in December
and January as Israel tried to bring an end to cross-border rocket
attacks by Palestinian militants. 
'Visible signs'  
Hamas, which controls Gaza but is regarded by both the US and the EU as
a terrorist organisation, was not invited to attend the one-day
conference. 
“ Development efforts will remain insufficient, powerless and threatened in the 
absence of a political settlement  ” 
Mahmoud Abbas 

The movement welcomed efforts to rebuild Gaza but said it should have been 
asked to take part. 
Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum also told the BBC that donors had
politicised aid by handing it to Mr Abbas's Palestinian Authority. 
Mr Abbas said that while all the support was
appreciated, we insist on the pressing need to achieve substantial
progress towards a just settlement [of the conflict with Israel]. 
The reconstruction and development efforts will remain
insufficient, powerless and threatened in the absence of a political
settlement, he said at the conference. 
British Foreign Secretary David Miliband said that visible signs of progress 
in the West Bank and Gaza were vital. 
He added that Palestinians needed a single government across the
occupied territories - a direct appeal for rival Palestinian factions
to put aside their differences. 
French President Nicolas Sarkozy, for his part, urged
Hamas to engage resolutely in searching for a political solution and
engage in a dialogue with Israel. 
Aid flows  
Raising money for Gaza is the easy part, the BBC's Christian Fraser in Egypt 
says. 
GAZA DESTRUCTION 

* 14,000 homes 
* 219 factories 
* 240 schools UNDP estimates  

The real business of the conference is the practicalities of how to get it to 
the people who need it most, he adds. 
All but essential supplies are still subject to Israeli blockades at the 
crossing points into Gaza. 
Building and raw materials deemed by Israel to be useful to militants as well 
as civilians have been banned. 
Aid workers say items turned away at the border have included macaroni, 
lentils, paper and school books. 
Mr Ban described the situation at the crossings as intolerable. 
Aid workers do not have access. Essential commodities cannot get in.
Our first and indispensable goal, therefore, is open crossings, he
told delegates. 
But he said it was also essential to ensure that illegal weapons were 
prevented from being allowed to enter Gaza. 
Donor countries as well as Israel, which did not attend the conference,
have stressed that they do not want aid to end up in the hands of
Hamas. 
Like the international community, Israel does not want
to see support to Hamas, Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said.
We want to see support for the people of Gaza. 
The Palestinian Authority has proposed that all aid to Gaza should be 
channelled through itself.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Challenge of Israeli settlements

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

. There's a wall dividing East Jerusalem from the West Bank,
preventing most Palestinians from accessing the best schools, the best
hospitals or going to pray in mosques or churches there. 
More and more East Jerusalem land is being set aside
for Jewish settlers. Then, within the West Bank there are more than 600
physical obstacles placed by Israel blocking Palestinian movement. 
Israeli settlers occupy 60% of the land there and they
are scattered all over the places. This further fragments the territory
and very much undermines the economy and prospects for improvement in
the Palestinian situation. 
Israel says this can change with peace. Regarding
settlements, checkpoints, the West Bank barrier, it insists what goes
up, can come down. But Palestinians focus on what they call facts on
the ground. They're not optimistic. 
Clearly, settlements are not the only stumbling block
to peace between Israelis and Palestinians but even the United States,
Israel's greatest ally, has been critical of settlements for a long
time. 
In the absence of a peace deal, international agreements require Israel to 
freeze settlement construction. 
Yet, during the Bush administration the settler population grew considerably. 
Barak Obama says he wants to pursue peace here aggressively. But his
secretary of state will have to tackle the settler issue with actions,
not just words, to really make a difference.

[zamanku] Aljazeera: Iran: US on wrong path over Israel

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Negara Israael itu didirikan tanpa persetujuan  orang Palestina yang terpaksa 
meninggalkan rumah dan kampung halaman mereka.

Sekarng orang Palestina itu  jadi pengungsi diberbagai negara dan di Gaza  
mereka dikurung oleh Israel...

Tapi bukan karena itu negara Israel harus diruntuhkan dan semua orang Yahudi 
harus diusir kembali dari Palestina

Tapi keadilan bagi orang Palestina yang telah jadi pengungsi kudu dicari...

Iran: US on wrong path over Israel   
 
 
Relations between the US and Iran have been
strained for years [EPA]Iran's
supreme leader, has said that Barack Obama, the US president, is
pursuing the same wrong path as George Bush, his predecessor, in
supporting Israel.
Ayatollah Ali Khamenei made his comments on Wednesday at the
beginning of a two-day summit in support of Gaza and the Palestinians,
held in Tehran. Even
the new president of the United States who came to power with the motto
of changing the Bush administration's policies talks about
unconditional commitment to secure Israel, Khamenei said.

This is defending terrorism by a government.
Khamenei also
said that resistance was the only way to save Palestine and called
for the Israeli leaders behind for the recent assault on Gaza to be put
on trial.
'Zionist criminals'
 
The political and
military leaders of the occupying regime that played the role in the
disaster of Gaza must be put on trial. This is the first step that
should be taken, Khamenei told the conference.
 
The only way to save Palestine is resistance.
Support and help to Palestinians is a mandatory duty of all
Muslims. I now tell all Muslim brothers and sisters to join forces and
break the immunity of the Zionist criminals.

Khamenei's
comments are likely to disappoint the new US administration, which has
indicated it is keen to break with its predecessor and engage Iran if
Tehran will unclench its fist.
Final say
Obama has suggested that he would be prepared to engage Iran on a range of 
issues, including the country's nuclear ambitions.
Khamenei, who has the final say on all policy in Iran, has so far
not directly addressed the issue of Obama's overtures but has in the
past said US governments could not be trusted.
The US has long called on Iran to end its support for organisations
like Lebanon's Hezbollah and the Palestinian Hamas faction, both of
which Washington considers terrorist organisations.
Iran says that Hamas is fighting an illegal occupation by Israel on Palestinian 
land.

Hillary Clinton urged to put pressure on Israel over settlements

US secretary of state due to hold talks with Palestinian leaders in occupied 
West Bank

Hillary Clinton was today due to meet Palestinian leaders in the occupied West 
Bank, where she will be asked to put pressure on Israel to stop its settlement 
expansion.

On her first trip to the Palestinian territories as the US secretary of state, 
Clinton will meet the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas, and the prime 
minister, Salam Fayyad.

Speaking in Jerusalem yesterday, Clinton said the creation of an independent 
Palestinian state was now inescapable.

However, Palestinian leaders say the continued expansion of Jewish settlements 
across east Jerusalem and the West Bank make it increasingly difficult for that 
state to be established.

The main point is that the Israeli government needs to accept the two-state 
solution and ... stop settlement expansion, Saeb Erekat, the chief Palestinian 
negotiator, said.

Although Abbas has held peace talks with Israeli leaders since late 2007, he 
has little to show for it.

On Monday, the Israeli group Peace Now reported that the Israeli housing 
ministry was planning to build at least 73,000 housing units in West Bank 
settlements.

The organisation said 15,000 units had already been approved and another 58,000 
were awaiting approval.

Almost 500,000 settlers now live in east Jerusalem and the West Bank. All 
settlements are illegal under international law.

The Palestinians will ask Clinton to put pressure on Israel to open its 
crossings into Gaza to allow in materials for rebuilding after the recent 
offensive.

We want the US to help us open the passages to get material for reconstruction 
into Gaza, Erekat said.

Reports in the Israeli press today said that, in a meeting yesterday, Clinton 
had pressed the Israeli defence minister, Ehud Barak, to allow more aid into 
Gaza.

Clinton said the US would send two senior officials to Syria for preliminary 
conversations, an apparent sign of a new softening of US policy.

US officials said Jeffrey Feltman, the state department's leading Middle East 
diplomat, would travel to Damascus along with Dan Shapiro, of the White House's 
national security council.

Last week, Feltman held talks lasting for almost two hours with the Syrian 
ambassador to Washington – the highest-level contact between the countries 
since the start of the Obama government.

Washington recalled its ambassador to Damascus in 2005 after the assassination 
of the former Lebanese prime minister Rafiq al-Hariri in Beirut.

Obama's administration has been reviewing its policy towards Syria and is 
considering whether to send an ambassador again.

At a conference to raise aid for the Palestinians, held in Egypt on Monday, 
Clinton shook hands and spoke briefly with the Syrian foreign minister, Walid 
al-Moallem.

Clinton's announcement came after she met the Israeli foreign minister, Tzipi 
Livni. She also met the Israeli president, Shimon Peres, the opposition leader 
and probable next prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, and the current prime 
minister, Ehud Olmert.

Clinton has said she wants to pursue peace between Israel and the Arab world on 
many fronts, suggesting she might encourage Israel and Syria to talk.

Some Israeli figures believe an agreement with Syria might be easier to achieve 
than a peace deal with the Palestinians.

However, Netanyahu has appeared to rule out negotiations with Syria by refusing 
to give up the Golan Heights, which Israel captured in 1967.

Netanyahu – who is likely to lead a narrow, rightwing government – has also 
stopped short of endorsing a two-state solution to end the conflict between 
Israel and the Palestinians, which may put his government at odds with the US 
administration.

Clinton said a two-state deal was in Israel's best interests.

The United States will be vigorously engaged in the pursuit of a two-state 
solution every step of the way, she said. The inevitability of working toward 
a two-state solution is inescapable.

U.S. on Palestinian government: Hamas is sticking point

* Story Highlights
* Clinton: U.S. at the moment couldn't work with unity government including 
Hamas
* Hamas would have to recognize Israel, renounce violence, Clinton says
* U.S. secretary of state to meet with Palestinian Authority leaders in 
West Bank

By Jill Dougherty
CNN Foreign Affairs Correspondent

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Tuesday ruled out 
working with any Palestinian unity government that includes Hamas if Hamas does 
not agree to recognize Israel.

In the absence of Hamas agreeing to the principles that have been adopted by 
such a broad range of international actors, I don't see that we or they -- or 
anyone -- could deal with Hamas, Clinton said in an interview with CNN.

The interview came on the eve of Clinton's visit to the West Bank for meetings 
with Palestinian Authority leaders.

Clinton said Hamas must do what the Palestine Liberation Organization has done, 
which is comply with the principles set out by the Quartet -- the United 
States, Russia, the European Union and the United Nations -- and adopted by the 
Arab League: Renounce violence, recognize Israel and agree to abide by prior 
PLO commitments.

Asked by CNN whether that means a public announcement by Hamas, the secretary 
said, Well, the PLO did that, and I think no less can be expected of Hamas 
which is, obviously, not only a terrorist group but is increasingly a client of 
Iran.

The PLO is an umbrella group that includes the Fatah Party of Palestinian 
Authority President Mahmoud Abbas. The PLO recognized the state of Israel in 
1993.

The interview was conducted a short time after Clinton met with Israeli 
Prime-Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu, who does not support an 
independent Palestinian state, the bedrock of U.S. policy.

Asked whether the United States could effectively work with Netanyahu anyway, 
Clinton said, The two-state solution is the inevitable, inescapable outcome of 
any effort. It is hard to imagine what other positive outcome could be arrived 
at.

The United States, she added, will present its view to the Israeli government 
when it is formed but the future of the Israeli people is up to the 
democratically elected government of Israel.

Tuesday, in another sign of thawing relations with Syria, Clinton announced 
that she is sending two envoys to Damascus. Asked what the ultimate aim is, 
Clinton said, We're not jumping to any conclusions, we're not using any 
adjectives to describe this. It's in the course of diplomatic outreach.

Clinton added that the United States has a long list of concerns we have about 
Syrian behavior.

There is worry in Israel over the United States' willingness to engage with 
Iran, but Clinton said any steps that the United States takes [with Iran] will 
be only after we have determined that we have a broad base of understanding 
amongst a large group of nations who share our concern about Iran.

U.S. President Barack Obama has said the United States is looking for 
opportunities for face to face dialogue with Iran, though he has deep 
concerns about the actions of Iran's leaders.

The United States, Israel and other nations have raised concerns about Iran's 
nuclear program, which Iran insists is only for peaceful purposes. Iran tested 
its first nuclear power plant last week using dummy fuel rods. Iranian 
officials said the next test will use enriched uranium, but it's not clear when 
the test will be held or when the facility will be fully operational.

Engagement, of whatever nature, is not being done just for the sake of 
engaging Iran, Clinton said. What we are looking for is a way to end Iran's 
nuclear program, end Iran's sponsorship of terrorism, of groups like Hamas and 
Hezbollah, [and] an end to Iran's actions in a negative or adversarial way with 
its neighbors. ... There is a lot that Iran is doing which is deeply concerning 
to people in the region and beyond.

[zamanku] (The Independent): Mark Steel: So Karl Marx was right after all

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Mark Steel: So Karl Marx was right after all

Maybe the Mail will be yelling, ‘Smash the bosses, get the worker’s Mail’

Wednesday, 4 March 2009


The sudden change is disconcerting. For years I might suggest society would be 
improved if we sacked these vastly overpaid bankers, and the response would be 
some variety of Here he goes again.

Now if you say the same thing the response is SACK them? I'll tell you what we 
should do, we should cover them in marmalade and lock them in a greenhouse full 
of wasps, then scour the stings with a Brillo pad. Then prick them with 
hedgehog spikes, smear them with fish paste and dip them in Sydney Harbour, 
then glue them to a pig and send them into an al-Qa'ida training camp with a 
letter announcing they're a work of art, never mind sack them.

Even the Daily Mail exclaimed on its front page, I'm keeping every penny in 
outrage at Fred Goodwin's pension. Maybe the paper is planning a change of 
direction, and will be sold in shopping precincts by left-wing groups, yelling 
SMASH the bosses, get the WORKER'S Mail, for suburban fashion tips, 20 ways to 
cook a parsnip and an all-out GENERAL strike.

Even Karl Marx himself is in vogue. Most papers have had articles about him in 
their business sections, commending his analysis of booms and slumps, and he 
was on the front page of The Times. Soon a Times editorial will begin: As the 
global downturn gathers pace, perhaps one economic remedy to be considered by 
our esteemed guardians is a violent workers' revolution as envisaged by Mister 
Karl Marx, and championed with consummate aplomb on page 32 by William 
Rees-Mogg.

A passage from Marx about the insatiable greed of bankers was quoted on Radio 2 
one morning by Terry Wogan. For all I know he's doing it every day now, 
muttering: Now here's a jolly old lesson from the old boy Karl – about those 
rascals of the bourgeoisie, it seems they've been robbing us blind all along 
and no mistake, so let's overthrow the nitwits for a bit of mischief. In the 
meantime this is 'Surrey with the Fringe on Top'.

Sales of Marx's Capital are at an all-time high, and this can't just be due to 
the current rage against characters such as Fred Goodwin and his merry bonus. 
It must also be because Marx fathomed that under capitalism, boom and slump 
would remain a perpetual cycle, as opposed to those such as Gordon Brown, who 
said once an hour for five years, We have abolished boom and bust, a theory 
which is now in need of a minor tweak.

But Marx might be surprised at the way he usually appears in these articles, as 
if he was mostly an analyst, a Robert Peston of his day. As a professional 
analyst, Marx would have been a disaster. For example, one year after Capital 
was due, his publishers asked him when it would arrive and he wrote back: 
You'll be pleased to know I have begun the actual writing.

But he might also dispute the idea attributed to him, that slumps make the 
collapse of capitalism inevitable. Because while he said SLUMPS were 
inevitable, he also said the outcome wasn't inevitable at all, but depended on

Canada's Harper doubts Afghan insurgency can be defeated

* Story Highlights
* Prime Minister Stephen Harper: We are not going to ever defeat the 
insurgency
* Canada's parliament has voted to pull its troops from Afghanistan by 2011
* Harper says he supports President Obama's renewed commitment to 
Afghanistan
* But Harper says he won't recommit more troops until there's a clear plan 
for leaving

(CNN) -- U.S. and NATO forces are engaged in a futile war against the Taliban 
insurgency in Afghanistan, Canada's prime minister said.

We are not going to ever defeat the insurgency, Stephen Harper told CNN's 
Fareed Zakaria in an interview that aired Sunday. Afghanistan has probably had 
-- my reading of Afghanistan history -- it's probably had an insurgency 
forever, of some kind.

Harper's blunt assessment comes as nearly 2,800 Canadian forces are fighting in 
Afghanistan. The country's parliament has voted to pull them out by 2011.

Harper spoke with Zakaria last week after a visit by President Obama, who made 
Canada his first foreign trip since taking office in January. Obama has said 
Afghanistan is the central front to the U.S.-led war on terror.

The Pentagon is in the process of sending an additional 17,000 troops to 
Afghanistan, bringing the total there to 55,000.

Harper told CNN that he supports Obama's renewed commitment to Afghanistan 
but said he would not recommit any more Canadian troops until there is a clear 
plan for leaving Afghanistan.

What has to happen in Afghanistan is, we have to have an Afghan government 
that is capable of managing that insurgency and improving its own governance, 
Harper said.

If President Obama wants anybody to do more, I would ask very hard questions 
about what is the strategy for success and for an eventual departure.

Israel's Olmert may face corruption charges

* Story Highlights
* Attorney General Menachem Mazuz says Olmert committed fraud
* Israeli prime minister allegedly took cash from U.S. businessman
* Olmert says money was legitimate campaign funding

JERUSALEM (CNN) -- Israel's attorney general says he is considering charging 
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert with corruption over allegations he illegally 
received funds from an American businessmen.

Attorney General Menachem Mazuz says Olmert committed fraud and breached 
confidences when he allegedly used his then-position as mayor of Jerusalem to 
help businessman Morris Talansky in 2006.

Olmert says the money he received was legal campaign funding.

Mazuz will decide whether to indict Olmert after the prime minister has had a 
chance to refute the charges in a hearing before the attorney general. No date 
has been set for that meeting.

Mazuz ordered an investigation in April 2008 into the relationship between 
Olmert and Talansky. Talansky gave a colorful testimony last year, telling of 
various times that he handed Olmert envelopes stuffed with cash. The testimony 
badly damaged the already unpopular Olmert.

Israeli police recommended in September that Olmert be charged with corruption 
over the Talansky case and the Rishon Tours affair, in which Olmert was 
accused of pocketing money for official travels. A hearing in the Rishon Tours 
case is set for April.

Olmert announced days after the police recommendation that he would resign as 
head of the Kadima party. Israelis went to the polls last month and Olmert is 
now caretaker prime minister until a new government is formed.

[zamanku] Aljazeera: Clinton set to meet Israeli leaders

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

News Middle East  
 
Clinton set to meet Israeli leaders   
 
 
Clinton looks set to maintain Washington's tough line against the Palestinian 
faction Hamas [AFP]Hillary
Clinton, the US secretary of state, is set to meet Israeli leaders in
Jerusalem, with the shaky ceasefire in Gaza high on her agenda.
She is due to meet on Tuesday Shimon Peres, Israel's president, and
Benyamin Netanyahu, the prime minister-designate who is trying to put
together a government. Clinton is
also set to meet Tzipi Livni, the outgoing foreign minister and leader
of Kadima who led the Israeli team in recent negotiations with the
Palestinians.
Livni has rejected overtures from Netanyahu to form a coalition government and 
is set to take her party into the opposition.
Hopes
are high for Clinton after the administration of George Bush, the
former US president, was criticised for coming to Arab-Israeli
peacemaking only in the final stages of his presidency.
'Difficult and complex'
Barack Obama, the US president, has said the issue will be a
priority for his administration and Clinton said she would push on
many fronts early on.
This is a very difficult and complex set of issues, she said before her 
arrival in Jerusalem on Monday.
 
Israel's continued settlement building has  strained the peace process [AFP] 
Peace talks brokered by her husband Bill Clinton, a former president, broke 
down in 2000, his final year of his presidency. 
Talks between Israel and the Palestinians were relaunched at a
US-sponsored conference in Annapolis, Maryland, in November 2007, but
the talks were halted after Israel's military offensive on Gaza.
Clinton arrived in Israel from an international donors' conference
in the Egyptian resort of Sharm el-Sheikh, where countries pledged $5bn
to help rebuild Gaza following Israel's war on the territory.
The US pledged $900m at the conference, but Clinton maintained
Washington's tough line against Hamas, saying the money would be
channelled through the Palestinian Authority rather than being paid to
Hamas, which runs Gaza.
Peace problems
At the conference, Arab and European ministers pressed Clinton to
push the Israelis to open up border crossings into Gaza and stop Jewish
settlement activity.
Israel's blockade of the territory prevents supplies, including construction 
materials, from crossing into Gaza.
Continued settlement building by Israel has also strained the wider
peace process and Netanyahu appears unlikely to put an end to the
policy.
Peace Now, the Israeli anti-settlement group, has said the
government is planning to build 73,000 new homes in the occupied West
Bank.
The Israeli government says only a small number of the housing plans
have been officially approved, but Peace Now claims that 15,000 units
have been granted approval and that nearly 9,000 have already been
built.
Asked whether she would raise the issues such as settlement building and the 
Gaza blockade, Clinton sidestepped the question.
Shaky truce
An unsteady ceasefire has been in place between Israel and Hamas
since January, but Israel has carried out a number of air raid on the
Hamas-run territory and Palestinian fighters have also fired rockets
into southern Israel.
Before arriving in Jerusalem, Clinton said she was troubled by the
continuing rocket attacks and reiterated that Israel had a right to
defend itself, a message she will likely stress again publicly on
Tuesday.
Clinton will visit the West Bank on Wednesday to meet Mahmoud Abbas,
the Palestinian president, and Salam Fayyad, the Palestinian prime
minister. She also plans to address students at a school there.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Vatican hosts Darwin conference

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Vatican hosts Darwin conference  By David Willey 
 BBC News, Rome 

The Vatican is sponsoring a five day conference to mark the 150th
anniversary of the publication of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species.  
The subject is the compatibility of evolution and creation. 
It is one of two separate international academic conferences being sponsored by 
the Vatican this year. 
They aim to re-examine the work of scientific thinkers whose
revolutionary ideas challenged religious belief: Galileo and Charles
Darwin. 
Scientists,
philosophers and theologians from around the world are gathering at the
prestigious Pontifical Gregorian University in Rome to discuss the
compatibility of Darwin's theory of evolution and Catholic teaching. 
Christian churches were long hostile to Darwin because
his theory conflicted with the literal biblical account of creation. 
But the Catholic Church never condemned Darwin, as it condemned and silenced 
Galileo. 
Pope John Paul II said that evolution was more than a hypothesis. 
“ The design of organisms is not what would be expected from an intelligent 
engineer  ” 
Prof Francisco Ayala 
Yet as recently as 2006 a leading Catholic Cardinal, Christoff
Schoenborn, of Vienna, a former student and friend of Pope Benedict XVI
caused controversy by saying that Darwin's theory of natural selection
was incompatible with Christian belief. 
A leading American scholar of biology, Prof Francisco
Ayala, plans to tell the conference that the so-called theory of
intelligent design, proposed by Creationists, is flawed. 
The design of organisms is not what would be expected from an intelligent 
engineer, but imperfect and worse, he said. 
Defects, dysfunctions, oddities, waste and cruelty pervade the living world.

Clinton voices support for Israel   
 
 
Clinton, left, arrived in Jerusalem from a Gaza 
donors' conference in Egypt [AFP]Hillary
Clinton, the US secretary of state, has said that Washington is
committed to Israel's security has demanded and end to Palestinian
rocket fire from the Gaza Strip.

The former first lady made the
remarks as she visited Israeli leaders on Tuesday as part of her
first visit to the Middle East since joining the administration of
Barack Obama, the US president. It
is important that the United States always underscore our unshakeable
durable and fundamental support for the state of Israel, she said
after holding talks with Shimon Peres, the Israeli president, on
Tuesday.
However, she
also set Washington on course for a possible disagreement with Benyamin
Netanyahu, the Israeli prime minister-designate, who has spoken of
Palestinian self-government but avoided conceding a two-state solution. 

Palestinian state

Clinton,
who arrived in Jerusalem after attending a donors' conference aimed at
addressing the needs of the Gaza Strip after Israel's 22-day assault,
said that Obama believed a separate Palestinian state was fundamental
for achieving peace.


In depth 

Analysis and features from after the war During the conference, I emphasised
President Obama's and my commitment to working to achieve a two-state
solution to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians and our
support for the Palestinian Authority, she said.

Obama has said
that an Arab-Israeli peace deal will be it will be a priority during
his presidency, but talks between Israeli officials and the
Palestinians have stalled over violence, settlement-building and
disputes over other core issues such as the future of Jerusalem and
Palestinian refugees. 
The West-Bank Palestinian Authority finally suspended the
negotiations after Israel launched it devastating offensive on Gaza,
with a stated aim on ending Palestinian rocket fire into the south of
the country.

Rocket attacks

Clinton, who is due to meet Netanyahu later on Tuesday, defended Israel's right 
to respond to rocket and mortar attacks.

The continuing rocket attacks against Israel must cease, she said.
There is no doubt that any nation, including Israel, cannot stand
idly by while its territory and people are subjected to rocket attacks.

The US continues to take a tough line against Hamas, which effectively controls 
the Gaza Strip.

At
the donor's conference in Egypt on Monday, Clinton pledged $900m to
rebuild Gaza but maintained said the money would be channelled through
the Palestinian Authority rather than being paid to Hamas.

[zamanku] Aljazeera: Donors discuss rebuilding Gaza

Donors discuss rebuilding Gaza   
 
 
Conditions will be attached to the $300m Hillary Clinton is set to hand over 
for Gaza [AFP]International
donors meeting in Egypt are expected to pledge billions of dollars to
rebuild the Gaza Strip after it was battered during Israel's 22-day
offensive earlier this year.

Ahead of Tuesday's conference in
Sharm el-Sheikh, the US state department announced that Washington
would contribute $300m to meet urgent humanitarian needs in Gaza. Up
to 75 countries and international organisations are being asked to fund
a $2.8bn reconstruction plan designed by Salam Fayyad, the Palestinian
prime minister, who wants a large part of the money to be channelled
through the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority.

It remains
unclear though how the planned reconstruction of Gaza will be
undertaken. The territory is controlled by Hamas and Israel has said it
will refuse to approve projects that could benefit the group.
Hamas
took full control of Gaza in June 2007 after driving out security
forces loyal to Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian Authority president and
leader of the rival Fatah group.
Israel's blockade of the territory continues to prevent supplies, including 
construction materials, from crossing into Gaza.

Hamas,
which has not been invited to the conference in Egypt and is labelled a
terrorist group by the US and the EU, has prepared its own
reconstruction plan.

Fawzi Barhoum, a Hamas official, said that he welcomed efforts to address the 
needs of the Gazans. 

We
hope this conference ... will be fruitful in making positive steps,
quickly and effectively, to rebuild Gaza without politicisation and
preconditions that could complicate or create obstacles, he said.

'Humanitarian concern'
Marc Gopin, from the Institute for Conflict Analysis and Resolution
at George Mason University, told Al Jazeera that the donors' conference
was an attempt to demonstrate humanitarian concern.
In depth 

Analysis and features from Gaza after the war 
But, he said, there was no real addressing of the political fallout in
the long run, as to whether there's going to be reconciliation between
Fatah and Hamas and whether in fact this aid can really ever get in. 
They can't even get in humanitarian aid at this point because the [Israeli] 
blockade is so severe.
Hillary Clinton, on her first visit to the Middle East since
becoming the US secretary of state, said on Friday that the US aid,
which will include another $600m for the Palestinian Authority, would
depend on how well the Palestinians meet conditions imposed by the
so-called Quartet of the United States, the European Union, the United
Nations and  Russia.
I will be announcing a commitment to a significant aid package, but
it will only be spent if we determine that our goals can be furthered
rather than undermined or subverted, she told Voice of America radio.

Robert Wood, a spokesman for the US state department, said the $300m would be 
funnelled through the UN and other organisations.
Hamas is not getting any of this money, he told reporters.

'More of the same'

Saree Makdisi, the author of Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation,
told Al Jazeera that it sure looks like more of the same US policy
and that there was no difference between Clinton's stance and that of
Condoleezza Rice, her predecessor.
The most surprising thing isn't that there's no difference, it's
that there's no difference in spite of the fact that the [incoming]
Israeli government has taken an even more belligerent stand against
the Palestinians and on honouring international law, he said.

More
than 1,300 Palestinians, including women and children, died during the
war on Gaza, which Israel launched with the stated aim of preventing
rocket fire from fighters based in the coastal territory.
At least 13 Israelis, three of them civilians, were also killed.
However, rocket fire has continued and Ehud Olmert, the outgoing
Israeli prime minister, on Sunday vowed a painful response if the
attacks on southern Israel did not stop.
The rockets will be answered with a painful, harsh, strong and
uncompromising response from the security forces, he said at the start
of a weekly cabinet meeting.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Cash alone 'will not mend Gaza'

Cash alone 'will not mend Gaza'

Political action as well as funding is needed to resolve the crisis facing 
Gaza, an international donors' conference in Egypt has been told.

The Palestinians have asked for $2.8bn (£2bn) to help rebuild the enclave after 
Israel's three-week offensive.

But Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas told the summit cash was insufficient 
without a political solution.

His comments were echoed by new US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, who 
pledged $900m toward the effort.

Our response to today's crisis in Gaza cannot be separated from our broader 
efforts to achieve a comprehensive peace, Mrs Clinton told the conference, in 
her first visit to the Middle East as America's top diplomat.

She said the aim of the aid was to foster conditions in which a Palestinian 
state can be fully realised.

Some 1,300 Palestinians, of whom 412 were children, were killed and thousands 
of homes and businesses destroyed in December and January as Israel tried to 
bring an end to cross-border rocket attacks by Palestinian militants.

Hamas, which controls Gaza but is regarded by both the US and the EU as a 
terrorist organisation, was not invited to attend the one-day conference at 
Egypt's Red Sea resort of Sharm el-Sheikh.

'One viable future'

Donations are expected to exceed the Palestinians' request for $2.8bn (£2bn). 
As well as Mrs Clinton's $900m, Saudi Arabia is expected to reaffirm its 
promised $1bn (£703m) for Gaza.

“ The situation at the border crossings is intolerable ”
Ban Ki-moon UN Secretary General

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas said that while all the support 
was appreciated, we insist on the pressing need to achieve substantial 
progress towards a just settlement [of the conflict with Israel].

We are all conscious that the reconstruction and development efforts will 
remain insufficient, powerless and threatened in the absence of a political 
settlement, he said at the conference.

UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon said now was the time to think freshly, to 
lead boldly.

There is only one viable future: Palestinians and Israelis living side by side 
in peace and security, he told delegates.

French President Nicolas Sarkozy urged responsible Palestinians to seek peace 
with Israel.

You must admit that there is no other road to the creation of a Palestinian 
state but to engage resolutely in searching for a political solution and engage 
in a dialogue with Israel, he said in a message to Hamas.

Aid flows

Raising money for Gaza is the easy part, the BBC's Christian Fraser in Egypt 
says.

GAZA DESTRUCTION
# 14,000 homes
# 219 factories
# 240 schools UNDP estimates

The real business of the conference is the practicalities of how to get it to 
the people who need it most, he adds.

All but essential supplies are still subject to Israeli blockades at the 
crossing points into Gaza.

Building and raw materials deemed by Israel to be useful to militants as well 
as civilians have been banned.

Aid workers say products turned away at the border have included macaroni, 
lentils, paper and school books.

Mr Ban described the situation at the crossings as intolerable.

Aid workers do not have access. Essential commodities cannot get in. Our first 
and indispensable goal, therefore, is open crossings, he told delegates.

But he said it was also essential to ensure that illegal weapons were 
prevented from being allowed to enter Gaza.

Donor countries as well as Israel, which did not attend the conference, have 
stressed that they do not want aid to end up in the hands of Hamas.

Like the international community, Israel does not want to see support to 
Hamas, Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said. We want to see support 
for the people of Gaza.

The Palestinian Authority has proposed that all aid to Gaza is channelled 
through itself.

Although Israel and Western negotiators refuse to speak to Hamas, UN agencies 
working in Gaza do co-ordinate with the Hamas government.

UN relief agency Unrwa says it has contacts with Hamas even at ministerial 
level, but strictly on technical issues related to the delivery of its 
humanitarian services in line with wider UN policy.

Gaza rockets target Israeli town   
 
 
Mediation talks between Israel and Gaza have
shown little sign of progress [AFP]Palestinian
fighters in the Gaza Strip have fired five rockets at Israel, one of
which hit a school, according to Israeli officials.
Some of the rockets landed close to the Israeli coastal city of
Ashkelon, officials said, straining a fragile ceasefire declared both
by Israel and Hamas, which controls the Gaza Strip. There were no casualties 
reported in the rocket attacks.
The ceasefire, declared on January 18, ended Israel's three-week
military assault in Gaza which killed at least 1,300 Palestinians and
13 Israelis.
Since the end of Israel's Gaza offensive, Palestinian fighters have fired more 
than 100 rockets and mortar rounds at Israel.
Israel has also carried out several air raids targeting alleged
fighters, weapons caches and smuggling tunnels beneath the Gaza-Egypt
border.
Egypt has been struggling to mediate a more permanent ceasefire deal
between the two sides in recent weeks, but the talks have shown little
sign of progress.
Separately, Al Jazeera has learnt that Mussa Abu Marzuk, Hamas's
second-in-command who lives in exile in Syria, entered the Gaza Strip
via the Rafa crossing from Egypt on Friday.
Abu Marzuk, one of the main founders of Hamas in the 1980s, had been
attending reconciliation talks with other Palestinian factions in Egypt.
An Egyptian terminal official confirmed the visit, while Hamas would
neither confirm nor deny that Abu Marzuk had entered the Palestinian
territory.

[zamanku] Aljazeera: Secret' Taliban talks under way

News CENTRAL/S. ASIA  
 
'Secret' Taliban talks under way   
 
 
Talks centre around the return to Afghanistan of Gulbaldin Hekmatyar, the 
former prime minister
 Western
officials, the Afghan government and Taliban-linked mediators have been
engaged in secret negotiations to bring elements of the group into
Afghanistan's political process, Al Jazeera has learned.
The talks, which have been taking place in Dubai, London and
Afghanistan since the beginning of the year, have proposed the return
of Gulbaldin Hekmatyar, the former Afghan prime minister, who has been
in hiding for seven years, to Afghanistan. Hekmatyar
is the leader of the Hezb-i-Islami forces, a faction of Afghanistan's
Hezb-i-Islami party, and is purported to be in the northwest tribal
region of Pakistan.
His forces fight alongside the Taliban and are considered a terrorist 
organisation by the United States forces in Afghanistan.
Asylum offer
According to information revealed to Al Jazeera, Hekmatyar would be
offered asylum in Saudi Arabia, after which he would be allowed to
return to Afghanistan with immunity from prosecution.
The British government is backing that element of the deal, sources told Al 
Jazeera.
In depth 

Read Al Jazeera's special correspondence from Afghanistan  
James Bays, Al Jazeera's correspondent in Kabul, said: The plan is
to widen these talks and to bring in elements of the Taliban.
It is not clear whether the secret negotiations were aimed at
separating Hekmatyar's Taliban-linked faction from the group, or
whether to encourage some elements of the Taliban to join the political
process.
Michael Griffen, an Afghanistan expert, told Al Jazeera: If
Hekmatyar is in this only to trade for his own survival and immunity
from prosecution and eventual retirement, that doesn't provide for his
followers.
If they are not included in the deal, they will follow the Taliban.
Patricia Degennaro, a professor at the Centre for Global Affairs at
New York University, told Al Jazeera that talks were a central part of
ending the conflict.
It's long overdue that there is some kind of jirga or regional
council in Afghanistan, where some of these parties who have had
grievances over the years are brought together.
They need to start talking to each other and move forward so people can start 
putting their arms down.
Divide and rule
Mullah Mottawakil, a former Taliban foreign minister, said the talks would fail 
if the plan was to split the Taliban.
It will not benefit anyone if he [Hamid Karzai, the Afghan
president] brings one part of the Taliban into the government, and
leaves the other part behind. It will not finish the war.
Ghairat Baheer, one of Hektmatyar's two son-in-laws, released from
the US prison at Bagram airbase in Afghanistan in May last year after
six years in custody, is involved in the process, according to reports.
Baheer, an ambassador to Pakistan in the 1990s, was given a visa to travel to 
London by British authorities last month.
Humayun Jarir, a Kabul-based politician and son-in-law of Hekmatyar, is also 
said have been in involved in the talks.
Karzai has long proposed holding talks with the Taliban.
Should secret talks be taking place without his knowledge, it is
likely to undermine him and further sour relations between the US and
Afghanistan.
Wider talks
Al Jazeera has also learned this is not the first time in recent
months that talks between the Afghan government and Taliban
representatives have been attempted.
 
Humayun Jarir, Hekmatyar's son-in-law is purported to be involved in the talks
 
Last year, Ahmed Jan, an intermediary for the Taliban and tribal elder
from Helmand province, was sent on behalf of the Taliban to Kabul for
talks with the Afghan government, our correspondent said. 
Jan was arrested after US officials discovered talks were to take
place, and is now being held in US custody at Bagram, an Afghan
political figure told Al Jazeera.
With the arrival in Kabul last month of Richard Holbrooke, the US
envoy to Afghanistan and Pakistan of the new administration of Barack
Obama, the US president, resistance to talks with the Taliban may
change.
Ahmadshah Ahmadzai, another former Afghan prime minister, said
trying to bring all Afghan parties – including Mullah Omar, the Taliban
leader - to the negotiating table was the only option.
If Mullah Omar agrees [to talks] and those around him do - this is the real 
Taliban faction - then they can bring peace.
Degennaro said: It's really important to at least test the waters
and see what's happening, and what response we're going to get, which
is probably what they're doing right now.
The Afghan foreign minister is currently in Washington DC to discuss the future 
of the region.

Fossils fill gap in human lineage  By Paul Rincon 
 BBC News science reporter 
Fossil hunters have found remains of a probable direct ancestor of humans that 
lived more than four million years ago.  
The specimens of this ancient creature are helping bridge a long gap during a 
crucial phase of human evolution. 
Professor Tim White of the University of California, Berkeley, and
colleagues unearthed the cache of fossils in the Middle Awash region of
Ethiopia. 
They describe the finds, which belong to the species Australopithecus anamensis 
 , in the journal Nature. 
Australopithecus  is an important ancient genus of humanlike creatures, or 
hominids. 
“ I think you could argue...what we're monitoring here is the genesis of
that second stage of human evolution - the genesis of Australopithecus   ” 
Tim White, UC Berkeley 
Our own genus, Homo  , is widely thought to have evolved from this group. So 
the relationship of Australopithecus  to even earlier bipedal hominids is 
crucial to understanding where we all ultimately come from. 
When placed together with other fossils from the same general area of Ethiopia, 
the 4.1-million-year-old anamensis  specimens appear to establish an 
evolutionary succession between earlier and later species. 
The fact anamensis  is sandwiched between earlier and later hominids is what 
is really
significant about this Ethiopian sequence, Tim White told the BBC News
website. 
Middle man  
The finds close the gap between a more ancient species known as Ardipithecus 
ramidus  , which is found at 4.4 million years and a later species known as 
Australopithecus afarensis  , which is present in the Middle Awash 3.4 million 
years ago. 
Australopithecus anamensis  is intermediate between the two not only 
chronologically but also in terms of its anatomy. 
The anamensis  species is not new, but, say the researchers, this is the first 
time
that these three species have been shown to be time-successive in a
single place. 
One explanation is that one species simply evolved into the other - so-called 
phyletic evolution. 
Another possibility is that Australopithecus  first emerged as a side branch of 
Ardipithecus  . Under this scheme the mother species would have lived alongside 
the
daughter species for some period of time before the mother species died
out. 
But no overlap between any of the three species has been found in Ethiopia. 
Mind the gap  
I think you could argue, fairly, that the circumstantial evidence
based on geography and habitat is of one evolving phyletically into the
other and what we're monitoring here is the genesis of that second
stage of human evolution - the genesis of Australopithecus  , White explained. 
But, he added: We cannot disprove the alternative hypothesis just yet. 
The new discoveries go some way to bridging the gap between Ardipithecus  and 
Australopithecus  , but do not entirely plug it. 
The gaps don't get entirely filled; you fill a big gap and create two smaller 
ones, said Professor White. 
Now we're looking at a gap between 4.4 million and 4.1 million. That's
300,000 years; an awful lot of time when measured on a human timescale,
but not that long on a geological one. 
The fossils represent at least eight individuals and include the largest 
hominid canine ever found, the earliest known Australopithecus  thigh bone as 
well as hand and foot bones. 
In the woods  
The excavation at Asa Issie also uncovered the remains of pigs, monkeys and big 
cats. The fauna suggest that anamensis  was living in a closed, wooded habitat. 
Australopithecus anamensis  had a significantly thicker layer of enamel on its 
teeth than Ardipithecus  , suggesting the later hominid was adapting to eating 
a more abrasive diet of roots. 
In many species, this is a fallback food when resources are scarce, but it is 
not clear what caused the diet shift in this case. 
The Turkana Basin in Kenya has also yielded Australopithecus anamensis  
fossils. 
Australopithecus afarensis  was first recognised in the 1970s on the basis of 
the now famous Lucy
skeleton from Hadar, Ethiopia, and footprints preserved in volcanic ash
at Laetoli, Tanzania. 
Tim White, Gen Suwa and Berhane Asfaw discovered the first Ardipithecus ramidus 
 fossils in the 1990s.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Earliest 'human footprints' found

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Ini jejlas bukan jejak Adam  atau Eve...








Earliest 'human footprints' found 
The earliest footprints showing evidence of modern human foot anatomy and gait 
have been unearthed in Kenya.  
The 1.5-million-year-old footprints display signs of a pronounced arch
and short, aligned toes, in contrast to older footprints. 
The size and spacing of the Kenyan markings -
attributed to Homo erectus - reflect the height, weight, and walking
style of modern humans. 
The findings have been published in the journal Science. 
The footprints are not the oldest belonging to a member of the human
lineage. That title belongs to the 3.7 million-year-old Australopithecus 
afarensis  prints found in Laetoli, Tanzania, in 1978. 
Those prints, however, showed comparatively flat feet and a
significantly higher angle between the big toe and the other toes,
representative of a foot still adapted to grasping. 
Exactly how that more ape-like foot developed into its modern version has 
remained unclear. 
The fossil record is distinctly lacking in foot and hand bones,
according to lead author Matthew Bennett of Bournemouth University, UK. 
The reason is that carnivores like to eat hands and feet, Professor Bennett 
told BBC News. 
Once the flesh is gone there's a lot of little bones that don't get
preserved, so we know very little about the evolution of hands and feet
on our ancestors. 
The footprints were found near Ileret in northern Kenya. The site, on a
small hill, is made up of metres of sediment which the researchers
carefully cleared away. 
What they found was two sets of footprints, one five
metres deeper than the other, separated by sand, silt, and volcanic
ash. 
The team dated the surrounding sediment by comparing it
with well-known radioisotope-dated samples from the region, finding
that the two layers of prints were made at least 10,000 years apart. 
Another critical feature that the series of footprints makes clear is how Homo 
erectus  walked. 
There is evidence of a heavy landing on the heel with weight
transferred along the outer edge of the foot, progressing to the ball
of the foot and lifting off with the toes. 
That's very diagnostic of the modern style of walking,
and the Laetoli prints don't give that same character, Professor
Bennett said. 
The finding is a critical clue for mapping out the evolution of modern humans, 
both in terms of physiology and also how H. erectus  fared in its environment. 
H. erectus  was a great leap in evolution, showing increased variety of diet 
and of habitat, and was the first Homo  species to make the journey out of 
Africa. 
There's some suggestion out there that Homo erectus  was able to scour the 
landscape for carcasses and meat...and was able
to get there very quickly, had longer limbs and was much more efficient
in terms of long distance travel, Professor Bennett added. 
Now we're also saying it had an essentially modern foot anatomy and function, 
which also adds to that story.

[zamanku] SD: Why didn't Darwin discover Mendel's laws?

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Orang suka lupa peranaan Mendel ini dalam menjelaskan evolusi. 




Why didn't Darwin discover Mendel's laws?
Published: Friday, February 27, 2009 - 09:28 in Paleontology  Archaeology 
Learn more about: evolution darwin gregor mendel 
Mendel solved the logic
of inheritance in his monastery garden with no more technology than
Darwin had in his garden at Down House. So why couldn't Darwin have
done it too? A Journal of Biology article argues that Darwin's
background, influences and research focus gave him a viewpoint that
prevented him from interpreting the evidence that was all around him,
even in his own work. Darwin's commitment to quantitative variation as
the raw material of evolution meant he could not see the logic of
inheritance, argues Jonathan Howard of the University of Cologne,
Germany.
Quantitative variation was at the heart of Darwin's evolution, and
quantitative variation is the last place where clean Mendelian
inheritance can be seen, says Howard. Darwin boxed himself in, unable
to see the laws of inheritance in continuous variation, unable to see
the real importance of discontinuous variation where the laws of
inheritance could be discerned.
Moravian priest and scientist Gregor Mendel (1822 - 1884) studied
clear-cut, inherited traits in pea plants, which he grew in the
monastery gardens in Brno. Mendel showed that trait inheritance follow
simple laws, which were later named after him. Mendel's work was
rediscovered at the beginning of the 20th century, and laid the
foundations for genetics. Mendel had a good understanding of biology,
but his understanding of physics, statistics and probability theory
were far superior to Darwin's. 
Darwin's view of biology was greatly influenced by geologist Charles
Lyell during and after the 1831-1836 Beagle voyage, leading to Darwin's
focus on infinitely tiny differences between individuals giving
infinitesimal advantages or disadvantages in survival. For Darwin,
selection of these variants over hundreds of thousands of generations
was the critical process in evolution.
Darwin's book The Different Forms of Flowers on Plants of the Same
Species details breeding experiments involving a well-defined unit
character, yielding clear data interpretable as 'Mendelian' ratios. But
these went unremarked by Darwin, who insisted, because of his belief
that only quantitative variation contributed to evolution, that the
rules of inheritance were too complex and not ready for definitive
analysis.
Heredity and variation played central roles in Darwin's development
of the theory of evolution by natural selection. His view that
variation is caused by random, quasi-physical events outside
environmental control, is much as we believe today. But he never freed
himself from the incorrect belief that environmentally determined
changes could also be inherited, another victim of his focus on
quantitative characters, height, weight and so on, which are strongly
influenced by environmental effects.
This year marks the bicentennial of Darwin's birthday, and 150 years since his 
book The Origin of Species was first published.

Karl Marx tidak salah: agama itu adalah candu buat manusia.

Bagusnya perkembangan ilmu pengetahuan sudah sampai pada titik yang 
memungkinkan manusia bisa membebaskan dirinya dari candu itu.

Kita sudah tahu bahwa kitab taik anjing seperti al-Mùshaf dan Bible
itu cuma susunan manusia dan sarat berisi omong kosong dan kibulan.

Dimulai dengan Copernicus dan Galileo yang bilang  biumi itu
melingkari matahari.

Lalu Darwin yang bilang manusia itu juga cuman hasil evolusi. 

Dan kita juga sudah  ngah bahwa tuhan dan Allah yang diriwayatkan Bible dan 
al-Mushaf itu  ya cuman semacam hantu blau dan dedemit yang tidak  berbukti ada.

Neuroscientist dan anthropolog juga sudah menjelaskan, bahwa apa yang
dikatakan Fuerbach satu setengah abad yang lalu bener: bukan tuhan yang 
menciptakan manusia tapi manusia yang mencitakan Tuhan.

Walaupun Gaalileo dihukum gereja tapi kenyataan tetap sama: bumilah yang

Dan akhirnya gereja katolik yang menghukum Galileo mengakui kesalahannnya dan 
Paus JP II minta maaf atas kesalahan gerejanya.

Lalu datang Darwin yang bilang bahwa manusia itu adalah hasil evolusi.

Busset.

Jadi,manusia itu   bukan keturunan nabi Adam yang menurut Bible dan al-Mushaf 
diciptakan Tuhan (atau Allah) dari tanah liat.

Tapi apakah Tuhan atau Allah itu memang ada?

Ya nggak.

Neuroscientist  yang ilmunya pesat berkembang sejak bahagian kedua abad yang 
lalu - terutama setelah ditemukannnya scanner canggih - bilang bahwa bukan 
Tuhan yang menciptakan manusia tapi manusia yang menciptakan Tuhan.

Persis seperti yang telah dikatakan Fuerbach seabad setengah yang lalu.

Agar jelas: orang yang  tahun 2009 ini masih mau percaya kepada omong kosong

manusiad ungu-dungu.

Hamas and Fatah meet in Egypt   
 
 
Fatah and Hamas hope to heal a rift that widened since Hamas seized control of 
Gaza in 2007 [AFP]Rival
Palestinian Fatah and Hamas groups have held unofficial meetings in
Cairo, Egypt's capital, ahead of a reconciliation conference scheduled
for Thursday this week.
Wednesday's meetings, the latest in a series held in the past few
weeks, will help pave the way for national dialogue, Nabil Amr, the
Palestinian ambassador in Cairo, said. The
two groups agreed to resolve the fate of prisoners held by both sides
in a timeline not going beyond the end of the inter-Palestinian
dialogue meetings, a joint statement they released said.
A
certain number of detainees will be freed right at the beginning of the
dialogue, said the statement from Azzam al-Ahmad, leader of the Fatah
bloc in the Palestinian parliament, and Mahmoud Zahar, a senior Hamas
official.

Hamas members freed
The statement said: Other detainees will be freed successively so
that this issue will be totally closed before the end of the national
Palestinian dialogue.”
Zahar said 80 Hamas members held in the West Bank, which is
controlled by Fatah, have been released and that 300  were still being
held.
A planned unity government by Fatah and Hamas will deal with foreign
governments, co-ordinate reconstruction in the Gaza Strip and prepare
for Palestinian presidential and legislative elections.
Fatah, the secular group headed by Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian
president, and Hamas have long been rivals but their feuding boiled
over in June 2007 when Hamas seized control of the Gaza strip.
Thursday's conference, which will also bring in other Palestinian
factions, stems from Egyptian proposals for a lasting ceasefire
following Israel's 23-day onslaught on Gaza.

More than 1,300 people were killed and buildings and infrastructure destroyed.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Taleban reconciliation 'possible'

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

 
Taleban reconciliation 'possible'  By Frank Gardner 
 BBC Security Correspondent 

Reconciliation with the Taleban is possible, says Gulab Mangal, the governor of 
Afghanistan's troubled Helmand province.  
But he said it was not possible with the extreme members, who had links to 
international terrorism. 
Governor Mangal told the BBC the keys to defeating the Afghan insurgency were 
reconciliation and better governance. 
Also, he said, the elimination of the Taleban's sanctuaries that straddle the 
Afghan-Pakistan border. 
The energetic and reform-minded Governor Mangal is much favoured by
Britain, which has over 8,000 troops deployed to Afghanistan. 
On a day when news broke of three more British deaths
in Helmand province, bringing the total killed since 2001 to 148, he
said that coalition soldiers fighting the Taleban were doing it for
the sake of the world's humanity. 
In a reference to al-Qaeda-linked insurgents, he said if Helmand province was 
not secure, then London would not be either. 
“ We have proof that the Taleban are forcing farmers to plant opium poppies and 
punishing them if they refuse  ” 
Governor Mangal 
He denied recent reports that the Taleban were in control of more than
half of his province and insisted that Nato and Afghan security forces
were jointly inflicting heavy losses on the Taleban and interrupting
the narcotics trade, in which he said they were heavily involved. 
We have taken serious steps towards the narcotics problem, he told a news 
conference earlier. 
Dozens of smugglers have been captured, many heroin facilities have
been destroyed and 41 tonnes of drugs have been confiscated. 
The Taleban and drug dealers are working closely
together and we have proof that the Taleban are forcing farmers to
plant opium poppies and punishing them if they refuse, he said. 
The Taleban are even escorting drugs convoys around
the country and out of it for export. But this year [because of our
efforts] you will see a decrease in poppy production. 
'Bailing out'  
But Governor Mangal did not deny that his government was having to
confront serious problems in Helmand, a province which continues to see
some of Afghanistan's fiercest fighting. 
He divided the Taleban into three categories, only two of which he said could 
be negotiated with. 
The first was those fighters with international links like al-Qaeda,
and these the Afghan government would never reconcile with. 
The second group, he said, was nationalist jihadis
fighting primarily to expel foreign forces from their land, and these
he believed could eventually be brought into the government. 
The third group listed by Governor Mangal was comprised
of those Afghans who had joined the insurgency for personal reasons,
such as resentment of weak government or abuse at the hands of the
authorities; these too, he believed could be reconciled with. 
As to how long the international coalition would need to stay in Afghanistan, 
Governor Mangal would not be drawn. 
But on one point he was clear: the insurgency, he said, could not be
defeated unless the Taleban's sanctuaries were eliminated. 
He likened this to bailing water out of a boat at sea. 
If there is a hole in the boat and the water is coming in and we are
taking it out with a bucket, he said, we will never be able to stop
the sea water coming in if we don't plug the hole.

[zamanku] BBC NEWS: Fish fossil clue to origin of sex

[Jusfiq Hadjar]

Fish fossil clue to origin of sex  By Paul Rincon 
 Science reporter, BBC News 

A fossil fish from Australia was one of the earliest known vertebrates
to reproduce by fertilising eggs inside the female, a study suggests.  
Nature journal says the ancient fish was carrying a 5cm-long embryo. 
The fertilisation of eggs by sperm outside the mother's body - external
fertilisation - is thought to have evolved before copulation. 
The fossil suggests the fertilisation of eggs inside the female's body evolved 
sooner than previously thought. 
These (fish) show some of the earliest evidence for internal
reproduction, Zerina Johanson, curator of fossil fish at London's
Natural History Museum (NHM), told BBC News. 
“ Evidence of reproductive biology is extremely rare in the fossil record  ” 
Zerina Johanson, Natural History Museum 
We expected that these early fishes would show a more primitive type
of reproduction, where sperm and eggs combine in the water and embryos
develop outside the fish. 
According to Dr Johanson, the 365 million-year-old
specimen shows that the type of advanced fertilisation, taking place
inside the mother, was more common among early fishes than previously
thought. 
This discovery is incredibly important because
evidence of reproductive biology is extremely rare in the fossil
record, she said. 
Dating to the Upper Devonian Period, the specimen has been bestowed with the 
scientific name Incisoscutum ritchiei  . 
It belongs to a group of early fish known as placoderms, which were covered in 
tough armour. 
Shark comparison  
This specimen shows a modification of the pelvic fin on its belly. The
authors of the Nature paper believe this structure, called a clasper,
would have been used by the male to grip the female during mating. A
similar organ is seen in modern sharks. 
The clasper is an intermittent erectile organ that is
inserted inside the female to transfer sperm, said co-author Dr John
Long, a palaeontologist at Museum Victoria in Australia. 
In one type of placoderm called the ptyctodonts, this organ is covered in bone 
and hooked. 
This new group... has more flexible claspers. In the Nature paper,
we're suggesting this is the beginning of erectile male fertilisation,
because part of that organ has been taken over by soft cartilage, Dr
Long explained. 
The process of internal fertilisation and giving birth to live young
distinguishes some fish and mammals from other animals such as reptiles
and amphibians. 
Dr Johanson thinks this was the main reproductive
method for early fish such as placoderms and could have evolved in
other fish groups too. 
'Sex' was far more common in these primitive
prehistoric animals. We used to think that external fertilisation was
the earliest form of reproduction but copulation appears to be the main
way they reproduced, said Dr Johanson. 
'Age of fish'  
The fish, which has been in the collections of the NHM since the 1980s,
was first thought to have died soon after its final meal. The bones
were thought to have been those of a smaller fish it had eaten. 
But research on related fish prompted Dr Johanson and
her colleagues to reinterpret the fossil. They came to the conclusion
that the last meal was in fact a young fish developing in the womb of
its mother. 
Placoderms are thought to be among the most primitive jawed
vertebrates. They were extinct by the end of the Devonian, which is
often described as The Age of Fish. 
Placoderms are right at the base of the vertebrate tree. So they are distantly 
ancestral to us in a way, said Dr Long. 
After the placoderms died out, another type of jawed vertebrate, the
bony fish, evolved into tetrapods - the four-limbed animal group which
includes mammals, birds, reptiles and amphibians. 
Last year, scientists reported the earliest instance of
a live birth in another placoderm fossil from the Gogo formation of
western Australia.

Walaupun Galileo jadi korban Inkwuisisi agama tahayul Nasrani, kenyataan tidak

Lalu datang biologi yang meluluh lantakkan kibulan agama tahayul Nasrani dan 
Islam dengan teori evolusi Darwin yang bilang manusia juga hasil evolusi dan 
bukan keturunan nabi Adam yang meneurut kibulan dan omong kosong Bible dan

Sejak itu jelas sudah: Bible dan al-Mushaf itu memaang cuma buku susunan

Tapi apakah Tuhan atau Allah itu memang ada?

Kibulan inilah yang sedang diruntuhkan oleh neuroscience yang pesat berkembang 
sejak bahagian kedua abad yang lalu dan yang telah  sampai kepada kesimpulan 
bahwa  Tuhan atau Allah serta dedemit dan hantu blau itu lahir dibenak manusia.

Agar jelas: bukan Tuhan yang menciptakan manusia tapi manusialah yang

Seperti yang telah disimpulkan oleh filsuf Fuerbach satu setengah abad  yang

Tapi orang Nasrani dan Islam yang dungu-dungu kayak anjing itu  masih tetap
