| This would be a dreary day to be a fish in Lincoln Park's South Pond, what with the poison in the water and the sight of hundreds of your fish colleagues slowly floating to the surface. So if you're reading this, be thankful you're not a black crappie or a largemouth bass. But, for the sake of those that went belly up on Friday to make way for a $12 million pond restoration project, ponder for a moment this age-old question: Do fish feel pain? |

Never too early to teach that lesson, is it?" |

| HELSINKI (Reuters) - Finnish engineers have poured pig manure into a contaminated pond next to an old mine, saying the bacteria in the slurry will clean up metals in the water. Mining company Outokumpu dumped 450 cubic meters of pig slurry into the waste water near the closed Kangasjarvi mine, which once produced zinc, copper and sulfur. "Pig slurry contains bacteria that bind metals that are in the mine water and they will sink to the bottom. We have used this system to clean mine waters at various mines," Eero Soininen, Outokumpu's mine reclamation manager, told Reuters. "Around 15 years... |

| FREDERICK, Md. -- Investigators looking for clues to the 2001 anthrax attacks appeared to be using a giant sieve to strain muck scooped from the bottom of a drained woodland pond, a newspaper reported Wednesday. The device resembled a boxing ring, The Frederick News-Post reported. Eight workers in brightly colored safety vests and hard hats stood inside it Tuesday and used rakes to comb through loads of mud dumped by a steam shovel.

There's hardly a Rotary Club meeting or bingo game that isn'tattended by at least one retiree who worked on germ warfare projects......... Some say Detrick's Cold War legacy makes Frederick a perfect place for an investigation as secretive as the anthrax probe. Detrick employees maintain high-level security clearances. Even longtime retirees don't discuss their former jobs. The seclusion that the... |
