““The looting of Baghdad’s Iraq Museum in April alerted the world to the illegal trade in stolen artifacts. Police departments and customs agents from Europe to South America are now on the lookout for any item bearing one of the museum’s catalog numbers, particularly numbers changed or chiseled off by thieves to disguise the object’s origin. Each identifier starts with the museum’s initials (IM) followed by the item’s inventory number. For example, IM.51059 refers to a cuneiform tablet.””

A boiling stream
This stream runs into the Firehole River from the Excelsior Geyser crater and delivers some 15000 to 17000l of water a minute at 93C into the river. Must be a shock to the trout! The colours are due to the various minerals and micro-organisms that are found in this hot environment. The whole bank side is built up by deposits from the water over time.
