Under pressure over its long-standing ban on gays, the Boys Scouts of America is proposing to lift the ban for youth members but continue to exclude gays as adult leaders. The Scouts announced Friday, April 19, 2013 that the proposal would be submitted to the roughly 1,400 voting members of its National Council at a meeting in Texas the week of May 20, 2013.

A Boeing-owned 787 taxis past a group of 787's after a demonstration flight meant to be the final certification test for the 787's new battery system at Paine Field in Everett, Wash., Friday, April 5, 2013. Boeing called the flight "the final certification test for the new battery system." The next step will be for the Federal Aviation Administration to decide whether Boeing's battery fix is good enough for airlines to safely fly it again. The test was "to demonstrate that the new system performs as intended during normal and non-normal flight conditions," Boeing spokesman Marc Birtel said. The 787 Dreamliner has been grounded since mid-January because of smoldering batteries, including a fire on the ground in Boston. Boeing has designed what it says is a fix, including more heat insulation and a battery box designed so that any meltdown of the lithium-ion battery will vent the hot gases outside of the plane.

This August/September 2010 photo provided by Dr. Samantha Joye with the University of Georgia Department of Marine Sciences, shows a layer of oil on a sediment core from the Gulf of Mexico seafloor. Six months after the rig explosion that led to the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history, scientists worry the oil deep below will get into plankton and the food web, maybe not killing species directly but causing genetic mutations, stress or weakening some species, with effects that will only be seen years later.
