e arranged in the configuration expected from the mission's entry,
descent and landing plan, but it's too early to say for sure
whether the photo actually depicts Mars 3."I wanted to attract people's
attention to the fact that Mars exploration today is available to practically
anyone," Egorov said in a NASA statement. "At the same time we
were able to connect with the history of our country, which we
were reminded of after many years through the images from the Mars
Reconnaissance Orbiter."A Russian scientists and advisor to the group, Alexander
Basilevsky of the Vernadsky Institute of Geochemistry and Analytical Chemistry
in Moscow, contacted the MRO team and requested the orbiter take a
follow-up image to confirm the features. The satellite's High Resolution
Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera took a second image on March
10 of this year, which confirmed the features."Together, this set of features
and their layout on the ground provide a remarkable match to what
is expected from the Mars 3 landing, but alternative explanations for the
features cannot be ruled out," said HiRISE principal investigator Alfred
McEwen of the University of Arizona. "Further analysis of the data and
future images to better understand the three-dimensional shapes may help
to confirm this interpretation."Following the Mars 3 mission, the Soviet
Union attempted twice more to land spacecraft on the Red Planet with
the Mars 6 and Mars 7 missions in 1973,
April 12, 2013: Japanese Self Defense Forces personnel refuel a PAC-3 missile
interceptor, deployed at the compound of Japan's Defense Ministry amid
a tense situation over a possible missile launch by North Korea in
Tokyo.APNorth Korea reportedly warned Japan that Tokyo would be the first
target should the country decide to play its nuclear card.The warning is
reportedly in response to Tokyo's standing orders to destroy any missile
heading towards the nation, according to Korean Central News Agency.Japan
has deployed PAC-3 missile interceptor units around Tokyo to protect its
capital and is taking North Koreas rhetoric seriously."We are doing all
we can to protect the safety of our nation," chief Cabinet spokesman
Yoshihide Suga said, though he and Ministry of Defense officials refused
to confirm the reports about the naval alert, saying they do not
want to "show their cards" to North Korea.Japanese officials have long feared
that North Korea has not only the means, but several potential motives,
for launching an attack on Tokyo or major U.S. military installations on
Japans main island."If Kim Jong Un decides to launch a missile, whether
it's across the Sea of Japan or some other direction, he will
be choosing willfully to ignore the entire international community," U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry told reporters in South Korea. "And it
will be a provocation and unwanted act that will raise people's temperatures."We

<p style="font-size:xx-small;">A Kentucky Democratic operative claimed Thursday that two leaders with a
local liberal group were the ones who secretly recorded a February strategy
session with Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and his aides.The
allegation comes after McConnell claimed his office was bugged, following
the publication in Mother Jones magazine of the recorded meeting -- where
aides could be heard bashing then-potential challenger Ashley Judd.Jacob
Conway, who is with the Jefferson County Democratic Party, told Fox News
that two leaders with the group Progress Kentucky told him at the
time that they recorded the session.He said it wasn't a "Nixonian bugging,"
but could have been recorded with an iPhone.Conway told Fox News they
recorded the meeting from the hallway, and later told him about it."I
don't know why they were at the grand opening of his campaign
office. ... They overheard the conversation going on," he said. "To me
it was an extremely tacky conversation ... but it was a private
conversation nonetheless."Conway did not specifically say the operatives
gave the tape to Mother Jones, but said: "They told me they
were there. They told me they were in the hallway. They have
a recording. So you know, you can draw your own conclusions."Conway, who
said he used to be friends with the two individuals -- Shawn
Reilly and Curtis Morrison -- said he came forward because he didn't
want the situation tarnishing the Democratic Party.The FBI has been i

opened a conversation _ not the first _ over the extent to
which the shadow of apartheid drives today's social ills as society fights
to overturn entrenched imbalances in services and opportunities. The fresh
discussion began with reported comments by Trevor Manuel, national planning
minister, that South African officials should assume full responsibility
and resist the temptation to continually blame apartheid for missteps.(AP

have the moral stature of retired archbishop Desmond Tutu, a Nobel Peace
Prize laureate who campaigned against apartheid and now laments the crime
and inequality that plague the nation two decades after it cast off
racist white rule."We can't pretend we have remained at the same heights
and that's why I say please, for goodness' sake, recover the spirit
that made us great," Tutu said. "Very simply, we are aware we've
become one of the most violent societies. It's not what we were,
even under apartheid."This month, South Africa reopened a conversation over
the extent to which the legacy of apartheid drives persistent imbalances
in services and opportunities. Some argue that current leaders lean on the
past to justify squandered chances to improve South Africa and even invoke
the specter of apartheid for political gain.The fre
