"The most energetic laser system in the world, designed to produce nuclear fusion--the same reaction that powers the sun--is up and running. Within two to three years, scientists expect to be creating fusion reactions that release more energy than it takes to produce them. If they're successful, it will be the first time this has been done in a controlled way--in a lab rather than a nuclear bomb, that is--and could eventually lead to fusion power plants."

The holes this woodpecker left in the trees are quite amazing for
depth and area.
It is a very large North American woodpecker. Adults are mainly
black with a red crest and a white line down the sides of the
throat. Adult males have a red line from the bill to the throat and
red on the front of the crown. In adult females, these are black.
They show white on the wings in flight.
