were treated Saturday to a rare celestial phenomenon: a total lunar eclipse (月全食).
For about 50 minutes starting at 6:06 a.m. PST, the moon was completely blocked by the Earth"s
shadow.
With only some indirect sunlight able to reach it after passing through the Earth"s atmosphere, the
moon took on a reddish glow. Since the atmosphere scatters blue light, only red light strikes the moon,
giving it a dark red color.
Dally Sam, who runs a public relations firm in Hawaii, said it had been cloudy and rainy, but the
weather cleared just in time for the eclipse.
Around 3 a.m., he awoke, as he usually does, and remembered to step outside the house in time to
catch the eclipse about a half hour later. No one else in the neighborhood was up.
"It was turning that dark red color," Sayre, 47, said, "I"d better grab a camera. To be able to see it
just right outside our house was really cool."
At the local observatory in Los Angeles, some 300 people, many clutching coffee cups in the cold
morning air, sat with blankets and chairs on the observatory"s great lawn.
"It"s really a celestial festival out here," John Peter, 39, told the Los Angeles Times as he set up his
camera.
Lying on a slope north of downtown near the Hollywood sign, the place offers clear views of the sky.
Observatory officials alerted the crowd when the eclipse began and spontaneous applause erupted when
the celestial event ended.
A total lunar eclipse occurs when the moon goes through the long shadow cast by the Earth and is
blocked from the sunlight that brightens it.

on April 15, 2014, and will be seen in the U.S.

Toyota Motor Corp, Japan"s biggest carmaker, said on Friday it will recall 1,489 Lexus sedans
(高级轿车) sold in China. "It will take us some time to ship the fuel tanks and vent pipes to China
to change those in these Lexus sedans for customers free of charge, if problems are found," said
Yang Hongjian, a spokes- woman of Toyota"s China representative office.
The expected recall will affect Lexus LS430 sedans made in Japan from July 29, 2003 to January
14, 2004, the representative office said in a statement. Toyota has not received complaints from
Chinese customers, according to the statement. The move will be part of Toyota"s global recall of
18,200 Lexus LS430s. It will be the third car recall in China in two weeks. Although automobile
recall is a common practice in developed markets, it remains new to Chinese customers. The Chinese
government published long-awaited automobile recall rules on March 15, which will be officially carried
out at the beginning of October.
China"s auto market is forecast to reach 10 million units by 2010. Automakers, especially Chinese
producers, will face greater pressure from automobile recalls, which could be very costly sometimes,
and should be in full preparations, according to the expert. The Japanese carmaker sold 1, 549 Lexus
vehicles on the Chinese mainland during the first five months of this year, according to Yang. Lexus
sales on the mainland reached 4,000 units last year, up from 1,600 units in 2002.

and a FrenchCaribbean man disfigured by a rare tumor show that such transplants can work and
are not medical oddities (怪异),researchers said.
The findings give hope to some people with severe facial disfigurement and suggest the transplants
could prove longlasting without major problems.Despite the tissue rejection in the first year after their
transplants,neither men had psychological problems accepting their new faces and have been able to
rejoin society,they reported.
Only three people have received face transplants.The world"s first was carried out on French
woman Isabelle Dinoire in November 2005 after she was disfigured in an attack by her dog.In 2007,
her doctors reported that she had recovered slowly and steadily,overcoming two periods of rejection.
In 2006,Chinese doctors performed a face transplant on a 30yearold hit by a bear.While there
were some complications with tissue rejection following the operation,two years later the man was
doing well,his doctors said."This case suggests that facial transplantation might be an option for
restoring a severely disfigured face,and could enable patients to bring themselves back into society,"
Shuzhong Guo and colleagues at Xijing Hospital in China wrote.
A French team described their work on a 29yearold man who suffered from Von Recklinghausen
disease,an illness that changes the shape of his face."The man,who was not named,was given a new
nose,mouth and chin in a 2007 operation.He began to work 13 months after the transplant has more
function in his face and has not rejected the new tissue," his doctors said.
"Our case confirms that face transplantation is practical and effective for the correction of specific
disfigurement," Dr.Laurent Lantieri and colleagues at the HenriMondor hospital outside Paris wrote.

In 1933 an unknown American called Clarence Nash went to see the film-maker Walter Disney.
He had an unusual voice and he wanted to work in Disney"s cartoon film for children. When Walter
Disney heard Nash"s voice, he said, "Stop! That"s our duck!"
The duck was the now-famous Donald Duck, who first appeared in 1934 in the film, The Wise
Little Hen. Donald lived in an old houseboat and worn his sailor jacket and hat. Later that year he
became a star after an eight minute Mickey Mouse film. The cinema audiences liked him because he
was lazy and greedy, and because he lost his temper very easily. And they loved his voice when he
became angry with Mickey"s eight nephews. Soon Donald was more popular than Mickey Mouse
himself, probably because he wasn"t a goody-goody, like Mickey.
In the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s, Donald and his friends Mickey, Goofy and Pluto made hundreds
of Disney cartoons. He also made educational film about the place of the USA in the world, and safety
in the home. Then in 1966 Donald Duck and his voice disappeared-there were no more new cartoons.
Clarence Nash died in February, 1985. But today"s children can still see the old cartoons on the
television and hear that famous voice.

New York times, Nov, 24,2011-It is not just any bug, but the native nine-spotted ladybug.
And its reappearance is something of a relief, because it is the official New York State insect,
even though the last recorded sighting of it in New York was 29 years ago.
Its absence had not gone completely unnoticed. There was a moment in 2006 when the State
Assembly, realizing that the state insect had left the state, tried to replace it with a different species
of ladybug, an attempt that fortunately gave in to law.
And now-after all these years-the state insect has been found. Like so many other New Yorkers,
it was seen summering in Amagansett. Peter Priolo, a volunteer participant in an effort called the
Lost Ladybug Project, found the ladybug on July 30 in a patch of sunflowers during a group search
he had organized.
"I didn"t realize it was a nine-spotted when I found it," Mr. Priolo said. He was on his way to do
an end-of-the-day ladybug record, so, he said, "I put it in my jar and hurried back to meet with
everybody."
If the ladybugs are making a comeback, it is only beginning. The lost Ladybug Project started
surveys in 2000. As of 2006, only five nene-spotted ladybugs had been found in North America in
the previous 10 years, none of them in the East. Then one lone ladybug was found in Arlington,
Va. None had been found in the East since, and only 90 have been reported in North America.
After scientists at Cornell confirmed Mr. Priolo"s find, they went to the Amagansett farm in
mid-August to lead a search that turned up about 20 more of the bugs. An area between rows of
carrots and beans turned out to be a hot spot. "We found a lot of them on cosmos and zinnias," said
Dr. Losey said, an insect expert. The farm is part of the 10,000-acre Peconic Land Trust in Amagansett,
and it is organic. For ladybugs, Dr. Losey said, "you couldn"t design a better place."
Dr. Losey wants to find out if it makes sense to reintroduce this strain of the ladybug in other areas.
And he expects volunteers to be back out in the field when ladybug season starts again in the spring.
Now, he said, "we need to find out more places where there are just as many."
