Passage 2

For the Pacific bluefin tuna, sitting at the popular kids' table surely is not paying off The stock of the fish is at historically low levels and is being dangerously overfished, a new report shows. Fishery scientists estimate that the Pacific bluefin population has declined from its unfished level by more than 96 percent. The report warns that stock levels likely will not improve by extending the current fishing levels. All the world's scrombrids - a family that includes tunas and mackerels - are on the endangered list.

One problem is that the majority of bluefins that fishermen snagging are under a year old, further hindering the species' chance to procreate. But the extreme supply is not deterring many buyers. If anything, low supplies of the fish have caused it to become premium commodity, worth buying at extreme prices. A Pacific bluefin was sold for $1.78 million at an auction in Tokyo.

The director of the Pew Environment Group has said that "the most responsible course of action is to immediately suspend the fishery until significant step are taken to reverse this decline." She called on the main countries responsible for Pacific bluefin fishing ?-Japan, Mexico, South Korea and the U.S. - to take conservational action. So far, there has been minor step forward: In June 2012, the Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission set a quota for the tuna catch in the eastern Pacific for the time ever. Some of the other actions were preventing fishing on bluefin spawning grounds in the northern Pacific and creating size limits ti reduce the number of juvenile bleufin caught.

Passage 3

Every January, many people start working out, hoping to lose weight: But as studies attest, exerciseoften produces little or no weight loss — and even weight gain — and resolutions are soon abandoned. But new science suggests that if you stick with the right kind of exercise, you may change how your body interacts with food. It is more than a matter of burning calories; exercise also affects hormones.

A study in 2012 from the University of Wyoming looked at a group of women who either ran or walked and, on alternate days, sat quietly for an hour. After the running walking or sitting, researchers drew blood to test for the levels of certain hormones and then directed the women to a room with a buffet. Human appetite is complicated, driven by signals from the brain, gut, fat cells, glands, genes and psyche. But certain appetite related hormones, in particular ghrelin, which stimulates hunger, are known to be instrumental in determining how much we consume.

The study has shown that exercise typically increases the production of ghrelin. Workouts make you hungry. In the Wyoming study, when the women ran, their ghrelin levels spiked, which should have meant they would attack the buffet with gusto. But they did not. In fact, after running, these women consumed several hundred fewer calories than they burned.

Passage 4

The first of material ever taken from the inside of a rock on another planet has been obtained by NASA's Mars rover Curiosity. Nasa just released new images showing the drilled material. The sample material will give researchers a look inti what mars was like during the rock material's formation. Curiosity's drill, located on one of its many robotic arms, obtained the sample powder as it made a 2.5-inch hole in the flat Martian bedrock on February 8th. The sample will now be analyzed by the scientific instruments inside of the rover.

The area where the sample was obtained is a "fine-grained", veiny sedimentary rock called 'john Klein,' named in memory of a Mars Science Laboratory deputy project manager who died in 2011. The rock was selected for the first sample drilling because it may hold evidence of wet eviromental conditions log ago. The rover's laboratory analysis of the powder may provide information about those conditions.(planetsave.com)

Passage 5

A possible alien planet discovered by NASA's Kepler space telescope is the most Earth-like world yet detected beyond our solar system, scientists say. With a radius that is just 1.5 times that of Earth, the potential planet is a so-called "super-Earth," meaning it is just slightly larger than the Earth. The candidate planet orbits a star similar to the sun at adistance that falls within the "habitable zone"- the region where liquid water could exist on the planet's surface. Scientists say the planet, if confirmed, could be a prime candidate to host alien life.

The object takes 242 days to orbit its star (compared to Earth's 365 days) and is about three quarters of the Earth-sun distance from its parent. The Earth orbits 93 million miles (150 million kilometers) from the sun on average, distance known as one astronomical unit.
