Q: I work in a cluster of cubicles, and one of the guys next to me burps constantly. I've commented a few times by saying ``that's gross" or calling out his name. He always replies that he's sorry but a short while later he's back to burping every few minutes. How can I address this issue without offending him? J.A., ...

Purdue University students are making some extra cash through a project that might turn some of their classmates' stomachs Â by sniffing livestock excrement. Students earn $30 per session as they take whiffs of a variety of smells collected from barns filled with hogs, cows and chickens for odor research being conducted by Albert Heber, a Purdue professor of agricultural and biological engineering.

A group of Japanese researchers has found that carbon dioxide levels over the Antarctica rose by over 2.6 percent from six years ago - the first such detection of an increase in a "greenhouse" gas above the southern continent, group members said Tuesday.    Many scientists fear carbon dioxide, produced by burning fossil fuels and other industrial processes, may be causing global warming by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere...
