In a follow up to a story last week, the team responsible for the Phoenix Mars Lander has indicated that the presence of perchlorates on the Martian surface may not be an issue for the presence of life.   Life does exist in the most inhospitable of locations on Earth, the Atacama Desert in the mountains of Chile, where perchlorates abound.  Testing for perchlorates continues.  The team has now conducted two tests on Martian soil and has concluded that the initial report of the presence of perchlorates appears to be valid.  They are, however, finalizing a third experiment which, if results are positive, will confirm the initial suspicion of perchorate salts on the surface of Mars.

I guess there are two pieces of news here: (i) Iran has a space agency and, (ii) the Iranian Space Agency has announced plans to put a man on the moon.

Iranian television announced the news last week.  Apparently, the Agency wants to put an Iranian on the moon by 2020.  The timing is under review and more news will be forthcoming, but apparently the agency is serious in its quest to have an Iranian explore the lunar surface.   Iran also claimed that it has launched a two-stage rocket--a necessary first step in sending manned flights to our nearest neighbor.

August 21, 2008: In a story that keeps on giving, there are now reports that the International Olympics Committee (IOC) is launching a probe into the age of Chinese gymnasts.  Commentators have complained for days about the age of these diminutive stars, many of whom look like pre-teens.  The IOC responding to the growing chorus of complaints has decided to investigate the matter.  An official of the committee referred to discrepancies in the age of double Gold Medal winner He Kexin, which prompted the investigation.  Her passport shows that she was born on January 1, 1992; however, other documents have been discovered that indicate her birth date as January 1, 1994.   Gymnasts must be at least sixteen years old to compete meaning a contestant born in 1994 would be ineligible.   The results of the investigation are not likely to published until after the closing ceremonies, thus saving the Chinese hosts from any potential embarrassment should the claim of cheating be verified.

The FDA posted a notice on its website last Thursday, August 21, that it plans to review data that show a higher rate of cancer among people that take the drug Vytorin.   Vytorin is a heavily marketed cholesterol drug owned jointly by Merck [NYSE:MRK] and Schering-Plough [NYSE:SGP].  It's going to take some time for the agency to complete it's analysis.  The complete review isn't likely to be finalized until the second quarter of 2009.

There's something exotic and kind of exciting about having a Swiss bank account; you don't even have to be Swiss to have one.

It is possible to open an account, even for people in the US.  American citizens that work for Swiss companies who end up stationed in the country for an extended period of time are the most likely to open and maintain an account, but really anyone can do it.  To open an account at a Swiss bank, you'll need the following:

  • You don't have to, but it's a lot easier to go to Switzerland and open an account in person 
  • Demonstrated that you're at least eighteen years of age
  • If you're not Swiss, you'll need a valid passport
  • You'll need some kind of documentation to prove where your money originates
  • You'll need verification of your address
  • The Swiss need some proof of the origin of the funds you wish to deposit
  • You'll also have to identify beneficiaries of the funds 

It does sound complicated, but Swiss bankers can't accept funds from criminal activities.  Swiss banks are known for secrecy.  It's a criminal act in Switzerland, punishable by prison, for a banker to reveal any details about his or her clients.  However, there's also an agreement between Switzerland and the US that Swiss banks will report earnings generate to the IRS.  There are certain circumstances in which this requirement doesn't apply, but for most people, there's just no getting around it. 

So, yes, it is possible to open a bank account in Switzerland.  The allure is still there, but most of the reasons why people want such an account no longer apply!

NASA has announced that it is delaying a series of planned, unmanned launches of lunar scouting vessels.  The craft were planned to find sites for a manned landing in 2020.

The original launch date for the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) was early December.  The next launch window opens up late in February of 2009.  The two month delay will cost NASA about $7 million.  The LRO is designed to orbit the lunar poles for at least a year.  The craft will take detailed, high-resolution images of the lunar surface which will be used to scout landing sites for manned missions.  The mission will also include an impact probe which will crash into the surface of one of the poles in an effort to find signs of water.

August 19, 2008: It wasn't quite what Michael O'Neill expected when he returned from spending over two months in Australia, but his friends and neighbors were mourning his passing.  He found his front door had been smashed in by local police, frantic to find his body.  There were even rumors of foul play.  The lesson learned for O'Neill, 49 from Middlesbrough in England, is that if you are going to Australia and you're planning the trip at the last minute, tell someone; don't just vanish.

Neighbors thought he was dead.  Their fears were verified when a death notice appeared in a local paper for Michael O'Neill.  The death notice included the names of his two very-much-alive brothers, Terry and Kevin.  It wasn't some sordid prank.  It turned out that there were two Michael O'Neill's in Middlesbrough with brothers called Terry and Kevin.  Now there's only one and he's at the hardware store buying a new front door.
