Soos sy vader Salvadore, spook hyself nou al 20 jaar lank om “erkenning” van die Huis van Bourbon wat tot 1830 regeer het, te verkry.

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., April 11 (UPI) — U.S. astronomers have, for the first time, identified water in the atmosphere of an extrasolar planet.
The identification was accomplished using Hubble Space Telescope measurements and theoretical models developed by Lowell Observatory astronomer Travis Barman. He found strong evidence for water absorption in the atmosphere of transiting planet HD209458b.

Four fighter jets – two F-15s and a pair of F-16s – buzzed a Continental Airlines flight that had originated in Newark and was carrying some 250 passengers once it came within eight kilometers of Israel, after the pilot failed to contact Ben-Gurion Airport upon his approach in line with international regulations.

A mysterious decimation of bee populations has German beekeepers worried, while a similar phenomenon in the United States is gradually assuming catastrophic proportions. The consequences for agriculture and the economy could be enormous.

Hoe raak die jongste demografiese tendense Afrikaanse skole en universiteite? Hierop het prof. Flip Smit, demograaf en oudrektor van die Universiteit van Pretoria, in ’n lesing in Bloemfontein ’n paar antwoorde verskaf.
Vooraf ’n paar syfers. Ons huidige bevolking van 47,3 miljoen sal vanweë die afname in die geboortekoers, meer sterftes aan vigs en vigsverwante siektes en veroudering stadig toeneem en teen 2021 sowat 51 miljoen beloop.
Wit mense het die vervangingsvlak (2,1 geboortes per vrou) in 1990 bereik, die Asiërs in 1999. Die bruines sal dit teen 2010 en die swartes teen 2035 bereik. Die jaarlikse geboortes sal dus tussen 2001 en 2010 by wit mense daal van 72 380 tot 59 697, en by bruines van 84 281 tot 73 205.
