document.write('<br />(<i>Rice University</i>) Theoretical physicists from Rice University have created a new model that helps define the subatomic origins of ferromagnetism -- the everyday \"magnetism\" of compass needles and refrigerator magnets. The model, which is detailed in a new paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was created to explore the inner workings of ferromagnetic compounds that are related to high-temperature superconductors.');

document.write('<br />(<i>Wiley-Blackwell</i>) In 2005 an outbreak of the H5N1 \"bird flu\" virus in South East Asia led to widespread fear with predictions that the intercontinental migration of wild birds could lead to global pandemic. Such fears were never realized, and now research published in the British Ecological Society\'s Journal of Applied Ecology reveals why the global spread of bird flu by direct migration of wildfowl is unlikely, while also providing a new framework for quantifying the risk of avian-borne diseases.

document.write('<br />(<i>Southern Methodist University</i>) Italian geologists in September will award the Capellini Medal to Southern Methodist University scientist James E. Quick, recognizing discovery of an enormous 280 million-year-old fossil supervolcano in the Italian Alps. Its magmatic plumbing system is exposed to an unprecedented depth of 25 kilometers. The discovery has sparked worldwide scientific interest and a budding regional geotourism industry in northern Italy\'s Sesia Valley. Quick led scientists from the University of Trieste to make the discovery.');
