23:24Mountain belts on Earth are most commonly formed by collision of one or more tectonic plates. The process of collision, uplift, and subsequent erosion of long mountain belts often produces profound global effects, including changes in regional and global climates, as well as the formation of important economic resources, including oil and gas reservoirs and ore deposits. Understanding the formation of mountain belts is thus a very important element of earth science research.

23:24An attosecond is a ridiculously brief sliver of time – a scant billionth of a billionth of a second. This may seem too short to have any practical applications, but at the atomic level, where electrons zip and jump about, these vanishingly short timescales are crucial to a deeper understanding of science.

23:24If the day seems a little longer than usual on Saturday, June 30, 2012, that's because it will be. An extra second, or "leap" second, will be added at midnight to account for the fact that it is taking Earth longer and longer to complete one full turn--a day--or, technically, a solar day.

With Nexus 7, Google Wants To Play in Amazon's Market
In releasing its first company-branded Nexus 7 this week, Google is deepening its reputation as both a hardware and software provider, staking out a place in the growing tablet market. But Google's content-centric, 7-inch device built by Asus is not much of a threat to Apple's market-dominating iPad, instead focusing on Amazon's Kindle Fire.The Fire, Down Below? The evenly priced, Android-powered devices -- $200 each ($250 for the 16-gigabyte Nexus) -- have similar specs in terms of display size, thickness and weight, but the Nexus 7 has an edge in processor speed (1.3 gigahertz Nvidia Tegra 3 quad core vs. 1-GHz dual core) and RAM, 1 gigabyte vs. 512 megabytes. The Nexus 7, which is due in July, has a 1.3-megapixel camera, where the Fire has none. The Fire also is only available with 8 GB of storage.
The Nexus 7's display resolution is slightly better: 1280x800 pixels, compared with 1024x600. Best of all, the Nexus is the very first device to ship with Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the latest operating system, while the Fire runs a customized version of Android 2.3. The Nexus 7 packs Google's latest version of the Chrome browser while Kindle has its own Silk browser.
"The Nexus 7 is clearly aimed at Amazon's Kindle Fire," said analyst Avi Greengart of Current Analysis. "Google called it a tablet designed for Google PLAY content and gave it a home screen that defaults to My Library -- you can't get clearer positioning than that!"
After his hands-on look at the Nexus 7, Greengart said he "came away impressed with the hardware and with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, but comparing it to the Kindle Fire is premature as Amazon is expected to launch a second generation Fire before the holidays."
He noted that Amazon also has an important advantage in merchandising the tablet --...
