Why Some Coral Reefs Might Survive Climate Change
Some coral may even be able to fight back on their own. Onshore on Moorea, professors Bob Carpenter and Peter Edmunds of California State University, Northridge, pump large tanks containing living coral with various levels of acidity-boosting carbon dioxide. One might expect that in the harshest conditions, the coral would not only stop growing but that their calcium carbonate skeletons would begin to dissolve. Instead, the scientists observed in 2011 that although coral growth slowed as acidity increased, it never stopped entirely, even in their worst-case scenario. The coral even appeared to be bulking up their tissue. And the researchers learned that not all species are created equal. Pocillopora damicornis, a variety of branching coral that is common throughout the South Pacific, barely slowed its growth at all. -- msn

The Secret Wisdom of George Gankas, Golf's Radical New Guru
One day this spring, George Gankas was telling me about his brief and not very illustrious career as a pro golfer. This was in the late '90s, after Gankas had graduated from college, at Cal State Northridge. The short version was his driver let him down—he was plenty long, but he had a tendency to block or hook the ball on tight courses—and so did his brain. It was only years later, after he got into teaching, that he got a handle on his own flaws as a player. “A lot of it was ego,” he said in retrospect. “Being afraid to either look stupid or play a bad round.” -- GQ
The secret wisdom of George Gankas, the radical newgle of golf
Within a year, he moved from the standard 120s shoot for beginners to the 70s shoots that many never do. Within two years he became a plus handicap. (This isn’t normal and I don’t really understand.) He did this by becoming a golf monk. Daily with 36 holes and a range of 500 to 1,000 balls. Did he have a life? No, not at all. He said he was “joking” at a junior college in Ventura, played for a golf team, then transferred to California State University, Northridge, where he played with Rick Sessinghaus in the early 90’s. Rick Sessing House is currently teaching promising young people. Tour player Collin Morikawa. “I remember him taking off his shirt and coming to his first tee,” Sessinghaus said of Gankas. “I’m not a typical golfer.” -- Texas News Today
