On 24 April 1889 Dunedin Police issued a sinister description of suspected baby farmer Mary Cecilia Counsel. As Police tried to hunt her down they described Mary as having “withered features” with “heavy eyelids” and added that she habitually dressed in black. In a climate where so-called baby farmers sometimes murdered their unwanted charges instead of arranging care for them, this description would have done nothing to reassure the general public. Nineteenth century New Zealand offered few options for mothers unable to keep their babies, and many turned to unofficial caregivers commonly known as baby farmers, women who took in children for money. The most infamous of these was Minnie Dean, from Winton in Southland, who having been convicted of child murder in 1895 was the only woman ever hanged in New Zealand. Ethel and Edith Winchester, 7 month old twins, had been taken in by Mary Counsel, who had answered an advertisement from a woman from St Clair in Dunedin. Mary was paid 14 pounds for their support, and told the woman that she had a home for the twins in Wellington or Auckland. Instead she returned two months later with a terminally ill Edith who died a few days later. When asked to return Ethel she claimed that she was with a Mrs McGregor but refused to give this woman’s address. Told she had to produce the child within 10 days she instead absconded sparking a nationwide search. Police were sure Ethel must be dead but in July Mary was found in Dunedin with the child. It is not known what Mary’s intention was but at least Ethel was still alive. What became of Ethel after this was not reported but Mary escaped conviction in this instance at least. Shown here is the Police report into Mary Counsel’s disappearance with Ethel Winchester. It was thought at the time that Mary had been working as a baby farmer ever since immigrating to New Zealand from India two years before.

Satellite image of Japan in May 2003. The islands of Japan are shown clearly off the coast of North and South Korea, China, and Russia in this true-color image. Running down through the islands are a string of mountains that make up part of the Pacific "Ring of Fire." The Ring of Fire is a zone of frequent earthquakes and volcanic eruptions that stretches in a series of arcs from New Zealand, through Indonesia, up through the Philippines, Japan, the Kuril Islands and Kamchatka Peninsula (Russia), across the Pacific Ocean via the Aleutian Islands, and down the coast of the Americas. Seventy-five percent of the world's volcanoes are in this ring, making it the most volcanically-active region on the planet. Also shown in this image are a number of fires, which are marked with red dots. A few fires were detected in Japan, China, and North Korea, but the majority were detected in Russia's Primorskiy-Kray region. This true-color Aqua MODIS image was acquired on May 1, 2003.

This is a view from orbit of the Caspian Sea as imaged by the MODIS sensor on the Terra satellite. Caption: The original caption from NASA : ::"The northern part of the Caspian Sea is plagued by a process called eutrophication , in which agricultural run-off rich in fertilizers stimulates rampant growth of algae in the water. The death and decay of these algae robs the water of oxygen, with obvious negative consequences for aquatic life. This image of the Caspian Sea shows swirls of green and blue near the mouth of the Volga River (top center), which indicate the presence of algae. The bright blue color of the northeastern part of the sea may be due to a mixture of plant life and sediment, for this is where the sea is most shallow. This image is from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Terra satellite on June 11 , 2003 .
