King County prosecutors Wednesday charged Ali Muhammad Brown, 29, with first-degree aggravated murder in the April 27 shooting of 30-year-old Leroy Henderson in Skyway, south of Seattle.

Severe drought is causing the western US to rise like a spring uncoiling
The severe drought gripping the western United States in recent years is changing the landscape well beyond localized effects of water restrictions and browning lawns. Scientists have used GPS data to discover that the growing, broad-scale loss of water is causing the entire western US to rise up like an uncoiled spring.

X-ray laser probes tiny quantum tornadoes in superfluid droplets
An experiment at the Department of Energy's SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory revealed a well-organized 3-D grid of quantum 'tornadoes' inside microscopic droplets of supercooled liquid helium -- the first time this formation has been seen at such a tiny scale. The findings by an international research team provide new insight on the strange nanoscale traits of a so-called 'superfluid' state of liquid helium.

Hot-spring bacteria reveal ability to use far-red light for photosynthesis

The discovery lays the foundation for further research aimed at improving plant growth, harvesting energy from the sun, and understanding dense blooms like those now occurring on Lake Erie and other lakes worldwide.

Sunlight, not microbes, key to carbon dioxide in Arctic

Laser device may end pin pricks, improve quality of life for diabetics

In a new article, the researchers describe how they measured blood sugar by directing their specialized laser at a person's palm.
