Investor's Business Daily - The proportion of working-age Americans facing medical debt rose to 72 mil or 41% last year, up from 58 mil or 34% in '05, according to a new survey by the nonprofit Commonwealth Fund. About half of those facing health debt have up to $2,000 in bills, while 12% have more than $4,000 in debt and another 12% have more than $8,000. The survey also found most of those with medical debt said they had exhausted their savings, with some also tapping into credit cards, home equity or cutting back on food or heat to cover health care costs. |
| Dramatic volcanism forged Mercury's surface - 04, Jul 2008 | |

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Volcanic activity has played a central role in forging the surface of Mercury, scientists said on Thursday based on data collected by a NASA spacecraft that zoomed past the closest planet to the sun in January. By Will DunhamWASHINGTON (Reuters) - Volcanic activity has played a central role in forging the surface of Mercury, scientists said on Thursday based on data collected by a NASA spacecraft that zoomed past the closest planet to the sun in January.The seven scientific instruments on the car-sized MESSENGER spacecraft also sent back information about Mercury's magnetic field and about the fact that the extremely dense planet has been shrinking more than expected over the eons.MESSENGER has begun to resolve some of the mysteries of Mercury, a sun-baked world about a third the diameter of Earth and a bit larger than the moon.In 1975, Mariner 10, the last spacecraft to fly past heavily cratered Mercury, sent back images showing smooth plains covering large parts of its surface.But scientists have debated whether these plains were created by volcanic activity or by debris settling back onto the surface after space rocks collided with the planet.Images provided by MESSENGER from its January 14 fly-by provide strong evidence that volcanoes played a critical role in forming Mercury's surface, according to geologist James Head of Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island.The dramatic and large-scale volcanism probably took the form both of humongous lava flows and violent eruptions, based on surface features seen in the images, Head said.He estimated that the volcanic activity occurred between 3 billion and 4 billion years ago, adding that there is no evidence of ongoing volcanism on the planet's surface.
