London, July 25 : Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has supported the new “hot pursuit” policy to tackle terrorism, by not indulging into dialogue with those militants who do not want to lay down arms.

London, July 25 : Seismic imaging has revealed that magma rising under the surface of a volcano may not be mushroom-shaped.
According to a report in New Scientist, the plumes of hot magma that fuel the volcanism of “hotspots” like Hawaii and Iceland have long been thought to be efficient conduits of Earth’s fiery contents.
Yet, it seems they can be rather lacklustre on their way to the surface.
Generally, the plumes of hot magma that rise through the mantle are pictured as mushroom-shaped; with a thin stalk feeding a bulbous head, or hotspot, beneath the crust.
However, seismic imaging in Iceland has revealed a patchy structure without a stalk, leading some researchers to suggest there are no plumes at all.
London. July 25: Worms not only use pheromones to send mating signals to each other, but as it turns out, they use it the complex chemical code as a cur for hibernation as well.
The scientists from the University of Florida, Cornell University, the California Institute of Technology and the U. S. Department of Agriculture focussed their study on the tiny worm Caenorhabditis elegans.
While at lower levels, the pheromone directs the male C. elegans to mate with its partner, but in case the worm population grows and the food supply falls, it leads to an increase in the chemical signal and the cue changes from mate to hibernate.
