Confirmatory factor analysis and invariance testing between Blacks and Whites of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control scale.
The factor structure of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control scale remains in question. Additionally, research on health belief differences between Black and White respondents suggests that the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control scale may not be invariant. We reviewed the literature regarding the latent variable structure of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control scale, used confirmatory factor analysis to confirm the three-factor structure of the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control, and analyzed between-group differences in the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control structure and means across Black and White respondents. Our results indicate differences in means and structure, indicating more research is needed to inform decisions regarding whether and how to deploy the Multidimensional Health Locus of Control appropriately
La pratique de la géographie humaine : théorie et spécificité empirique dans le passage du fordisme à l’accumulation flexible.
Les géographes doivent étudier les nouvelles structures d'accumulation et en analyser les articulations spatiales. Ils seront alors en mesure de contribuer à l'élaboration d'une théorie holistique de l'évolution actuelle du capitalisme.Geographers must examine the new structures of accumulation and analyse their spatial articulations.

Faint, moving objects in the Hubble Deep Field: components of the dark halo?
The deepest optical image of the sky, the Hubble Deep Field (HDF), obtained
with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) in December 1995, has been compared to a
similar image taken in December 1997. Two very faint, blue, isolated and
unresolved objects are found to display a substantial apparent proper motion,
23+/-5 mas/yr and 26+/-5 mas/yr; a further three objects at the detection limit
of the second epoch observations may also be moving. Galactic structure models
predict a general absence of stars in the color-magnitude range in which these
objects are found. However, these observations are consistent with
recently-developed models of old white dwarfs with hydrogen atmospheres, whose
color, contrary to previous expectations, has been shown to be blue. If these
apparently moving objects are indeed old white dwarfs with hydrogen atmospheres
and masses near 0.5 M_Sun, they have ages of approximately 12 Gyr, and a local
mass density that is sufficient, within the large uncertainties arising from
the small size of the sample, to account for the entire missing Galactic
dynamical mass.Comment: 6 pages, using emulateapj, including 2 colour figures, accepted for

Abundance, distribution, and habitat of leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) off California, 1990−2003
Leatherback turtles (Dermochelys coriacea) are regularly seen off the U.S. West Coast, where they forage on jellyfish (Scyphomedusae) during summer and fall. Aerial line-transect surveys were conducted in neritic waters (<92 m depth) off central and northern California during 1990−2003, providing the first foraging population estimates for Pacific leatherback turtles. Males and females of about 1.1 to 2.1 m length were observed. Estimated abundance was linked to the Northern Oscillation Index and ranged from 12 (coefficient of variation [CV] =0.75) in 1995 to 379 (CV= 0.23) in 1990, averaging 178 (CV= 0.15). Greatest densities were found off central California, where oceanographic retention areas or upwelling shadows created favorable habitat for leatherback turtle prey. Results from independent telemetry studies have linked leatherback turtles off the U.S. West Coast to one of the two largest remaining Pacific breeding populations, at Jamursba Medi, Indonesia. Nearshore waters off California thus represent an important foraging region for the critically endangered Pacific leatherback turtle
