The Roaring Rapid River Deep Wild Of Oregon Is The Place Where Tethered River Boarding And Rapid Surfing Evolved Out Of The Concept Of Tying A Board To The Shore And Standing On It Facing Up River Wherever There Were Plywood Millworkers; Native River Walkers Of River Civilizations That Used To Use A Net A Rope And A Board To Catch Fish As Well As Northwestern And South Western Surfers. Here Are The Stories. Thank You.

07/31/2014 09:00 AM EDT  When biologists disabled proteins critical for cell movement, the result was dramatic. The membrane, normally a smooth surface enveloping the cell, erupted in spiky projections. This image, which is part of the Life: Magnified exhibit, resembles a supernova. Although it looks like it exploded, the cell pictured is still alive. To create the image, Rong […]

A hidden hazard lurks beneath many of the roughly 156,000 gas stations across the United States.
The hazard is corrosion in parts of underground gas storage tanks—corrosion that could result in failures, leaks and contamination of groundwater, a source of drinking water. In recent years, field inspectors in nine states have reported many rapidly corroding gas storage tank components such as sump pumps. These incidents are generally associated with use of gasoline-ethanol blends and the presence of bacteria, Acetobacter aceti, which convert ethanol to acetic acid, a component of vinegar.
Following up on the inspectors' findings, a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) laboratory study* has demonstrated severe corrosion—rapidly eating through 1 millimeter of wall thickness per year—on steel alloy samples exposed to ethanol and acetic acid vapors. Based on this finding, NIST researchers suggest gas stations may need to replace submersible pump casings, typically made of steel or cast iron, sooner than expected. Such retrofits could cost an estimated $1,500 to $2,500 each, and there are more than 500,000 underground gas storage tanks around the country.

A severe thunderstorm cell ignited some new fires this week in Crater Lake National Park, but at least it also provided a delightful side effect. To answer some posters' questions, this photograph has not been retouched or enhanced in any way.

Established in 1911 by presidential proclamation, Devils Postpile National Monument protects and preserves the Devils Postpile formation, the 101-foot high Rainbow Falls, and pristine mountain scenery. The formation is a rare sight in the geologic world and ranks as one of the world's finest examples of columnar basalt. Its columns tower 60 feet high and display an unusual symmetry.
