CLIMATE - NASA Visualization Shows Global Temperature Changes

ECONOMICS - No More Résumés, Say Some Firms
'Instead of asking for résumés, the New York venture-capital firm—which has invested in Twitter, Foursquare, Zynga and other technology companies—asked applicants to send links representing their "Web presence," such as a Twitter account or Tumblr blog. Applicants also had to submit short videos demonstrating their interest in the position.
Union Square says its process nets better-quality candidates —especially for a venture-capital operation that invests heavily in the Internet and social-media—and the firm plans to use it going forward to fill analyst positions and other jobs.
Some are bypassing the staid requirement - onto personal blog, Twitter feed, LinkedIn profile, and links to social-media sites Delicious and Dopplr, which showed places where she had traveled. 'If we had just looked at their résumés at the moment we wouldn't have hired them'.'

SCIENCE - Quantum physicists shed new light on relation between entanglement and nonlocality
New research from the University of Bristol may disprove a long-standing conjecture made by one of the founders of quantum information science: that quantum states featuring positive partial transpose, a particular symmetry under time-reversal, can never lead to nonlocality

EARTH - Rare caterpillar-like horizontal earthquake discovered
Imagine that, as you sit reading this story, your entire city suddenly snaps a foot to the south. That's what happened to the city of Kohat, Pakistan, in 1992. A magnitude-6.0 earthquake moved a 30-square-mile (80-square-kilometer) swath of land one foot (30 centimeters) horizontally in a split second, leveling buildings and killing more than 200 people. The area hadn't experienced many temblors before, making the earthquake an unusual occurrence. Now, 20 years later, geologists have used satellite and seismic data to track down the cause of that rare quake — an equally rare type of fault.
"The pattern we saw was absolutely a dead ringer for a horizontal fault.
