By Travis Schlepp Velella velella, more commonly known as by-the-wind sailors, are oval-shaped blobs that live on the ocean's surface, propelled by small, stiff sails that catch wind and take them across the globe. Ocean currents and winds move the creatures from place to place, allowing them to catch their prey with their stinging tentacles. They are often pushed toward the California coast by powerful spring storms. |

By Alejandra O'Connell-Domenech New research from Girl Scouts of the USA shows 64 percent of girls between 5- and 7-years old report feelings of loneliness. That number increases as girls get older, with 73 percent of girls 11 to 13 admitting they feel lonely. As feelings of loneliness increase, girls' confidence in their ability to tackle life's challenges drops. |
