The speed limit on Interstate 90 between George and Vantage was reduced to 50 mph while crews repave the highway after last week's collision involving a semi-truck and construction equipment. The State Patrol requested last week the WSDOT reduce the speed limit during construction after a semi-truck hauling hay collided with a street sweeper and asphalt grinder in a coned-off construction area near the Vantage Bridge. Two people were injured and westbound traffic was shut down for several hours.

President Obama’s Bogus Voting Rights Claims
Last Friday, in a speech at Al Sharpton’s National Action Network conference, President Obama proudly announced that the Justice Department had taken on more than 100 voting rights cases since 2009. The problem with that claim is that, since 2009, the Justice Department has taken on only 39 voting rights cases—and as former Voting Section lawyer Christian Adams points out, only 13 were related to protecting minority voting rights. And, with respect to some of the cases in which the department has been involved, it lost spectacularly—such as its false claim that South Carolina’s voter ID law was discriminatory.

Jesuit Priest Saw Christ Crucified Again in Syria
ICC Note: The death of Jesuit Priest Frans van der Lugt has highlighted the incredible work that many Christians are doing in attempting to provide aid and care to those hurting and suffering in Syria. The conflict that has claimed more than 150,000 lives has also displaced nearly a full 1/3 of the country, nearly 9 million people. The church has been an incredible place of peace and love for many broken lives, while at the same time being targeted themselves by Islamic extremist groups.
Ready to Join the International Community? Iran Should Stop Persecuting Religious Minorities
ICC Note: While negotiations between Iran and countries of the West have been at a highpoint in the past year, largely revolving around Iran’s nuclear program. One of the fundamental ways that Iran can demonstrate that they truly desire to have trustworthy negotiations and want to join the broader international community is by demonstrating a respect for religious freedoms for its minorities. From Iranian-American Pastor Saeed Abedini to hundreds of Baha’i, Iran is routinely cited as one of the most repressive countries in protection of fundamental rights. If they want to show there is a change, this is the place to begin.
Christian Family Murdered On A Dark Central African Night
ICC Note: Three Christians, a father, mother, and 14-year-old daughter were murdered in the privacy of their own home last night. The attack, allegedly perpetrated by radical Muslims, led neighbors and friends to carry the bodies to a local government office in demand of a return in security to the region. Bangui, the nation's capital city, has suffered immense bloodshed throughout the year, including the massacre of of more than 200 innocents in a predominantly Christian neighborhood by Chadian security forces in March.
Islamic Terrorists Abduct and Enslave 100 Daughters
ICC Note: A flurry of recent Boko-haram attacks have seen the murder of 8 teachers, the massacre of more than 130 villagers and the destruction of their property, and the annihilation of 71 innocents in a bus bombing that destroyed more than 30 vehicles in the nation's capital. On April 14th, the radical Islamic insurgency and U.S.-designated foreign terrorist organization abducted more than 100 (according to eye-witness accounts, more than 200) school girls from the Government Girls Secondary School in Chibok. While Boko-haram's intentions in abducting the girls remains unclear, the broader ramifications for Christian communities throughout nothern Nigeria, however, couldn't be more clear: in the eyes of radicals, there are no boundaries. Join ICC in praying for the safe release and return of the girls to their distraught parents and families and for protection four our brpothers and sisters in Christ who continue to suffer at the hands of these Islamic terrorists.
Christians in India Urged to Vote for Religious Freedom in National Elections
ICC Note: As millions of voters continue to visit the voting stations in India's national elections, Christian leaders have urged Christian voters to vote for candidates who will promote religious freedom and a pluralistic sociality in India. In a post on his Facebook account, the bishop of Maharashtra said that India belongs to all people and the mark of a true democracy is the protection of minorities. He prayed that secularism and religious freedom win as a result of these elections. Please take time today to think and pray about India.
British Prime Minister Urged to Confront Pakistan on Blasphemy Laws
ICC Note: British Prime Minister David Cameron has been urged to bring up the issues of blasphemy laws during his next meeting with Pakistan's leadership. The controversial laws have often been criticized by international human rights groups who claim the laws used as a weapon by extremists to settle personal scores or for financial gain. Christians and other religious minorities within Pakistan are disproportionately accused and punished under Pakistan's blasphemy laws which can carry capital punishment for those found guilty. Currently, 4 Christians are on death row in Pakistan for allegedly committing blasphemy. Please pray that more world leaders confront Pakistan and its blasphemy laws.

However, became more prevalent, especially in young children, during the second half of the twentieth century and really began to surge during the past twenty years. Researchers also see a trend in the increased prevalence of other autoimmune disorders. Not only are certain autoimmune disorders increasingly common, but the autoimmune diseases, as a class, seem to be on the rise.

Searching for dark energy with neutrons: With neutrons, scientists can now look for dark energy in the lab
It does not always take a huge accelerator to do particle physics: First results from a low energy, table top alternative takes validity of Newtonian gravity down by five orders of magnitude and narrows the potential properties of the forces and particles that may exist beyond it by more than one hundred thousand times. Gravity resonance spectroscopy is so sensitive that it can now be used to search for Dark Matter and Dark Energy.

Ancient shark fossil reveals new insights into jaw evolution
The skull of a newly discovered 325-million-year-old shark-like species suggests that early cartilaginous and bony fishes have more to tell us about the early evolution of jawed vertebrates -- including humans -- than do modern sharks, as was previously thought. The new study shows that living sharks are actually quite advanced in evolutionary terms, despite having retained their basic 'sharkiness' over millions of years.
How smells stick to your memories: Your nose can be a pathfinder
Waves in your brain make smells stick to your memories and inner maps. Researchers have recently discovered the process behind this phenomenon.

Warm U.S. West, cold East: 4,000-year pattern; Global warming may bring more curvy jet streams during winter

Scientists achieve first direct observations of excitons in motion
A quasiparticle called an exciton -- responsible for the transfer of energy within devices such as solar cells, LEDs, and semiconductor circuits -- has been understood theoretically for decades. But exciton movement within materials has never been directly observed. Now scientists have achieved that feat, imaging excitons' motions directly. This could enable research leading to significant advances in electronics, they say, as well as a better understanding of natural energy-transfer processes, such as photosynthesis.
Relieving electric vehicle range anxiety with improved batteries
A new nanomaterial called a metal organic framework could extend the lifespan of lithium-sulfur batteries, which could be used to increase the driving range of electric vehicles. Researchers added the powder, a kind of nanomaterial called a metal organic framework, to the battery's cathode to capture problematic polysulfides that usually cause lithium-sulfur batteries to fail after a few charges. During lab tests, a lithium-sulfur battery with the new MOF cathode maintained 89 percent of its initial power capacity after 100 charge-and discharge cycles.
Computer software analyzing facial expressions accurately predicts student test performance
Real-time engagement detection technology that processes facial expressions can perform with accuracy comparable to that of human observers, according to new research.

The study also revealed that engagement levels were a better predictor of students' post-test performance than the students' pre-test scores.
