Harvard study: Men want powerful jobs more than women
By Justine Hofherr, Boston.com Staff | 09.29.15

  Let’s get one thing straight: Women believe they are as capable as men to attain and perform high-level leadership positions at work. Many just don’t want them as much, according to new research from Harvard Business School.
  The paper, published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), includes nine studies conducted on high-achieving groups. Professor Francesca Gino, doctoral student Caroline Wilmuth, and associate professor Alison Wood Brooks (all of HBS) surveyed over 4,000 male and female employees from different industries, and found a big gap between the professional objectives of men and women.
  While women reported having twice as many “life goals” as men - desired achievements that ranged from having strong relationships, marriage, a meaningful career, and family - fewer were focused on professional power, which women were more likely to associate with negative outcomes like stress and conflict.
  “This is a snapshot of where our culture is right now", Brooks told Boston.com. “If we these questions 50 years ago, or in another 50 years, we might see dramatically different results. Women are pursuing careers on par with men, yet women are still a little more responsible for things at home.”

What Causes a Super Blood Moon?
By Daniel Victor, Sept, 25, 2015. 

   A rare astronomical phenomenon Sunday night will produce a moon that will appear slightly bigger  usual and have a reddish hue, an event known as a super blood moon. 
  It’s a combination of curiosities that hasn’t  since 1982, and won’t happen again  2033. A so-called supermoon, which occurs when the moon is closest to earth in its orbit, will coincide with a lunar eclipse, leaving the moon in Earth’s shadow. Individually, the two phenomena are not uncommon, but they do not align often. 
  Most people are unlikely to detect the larger size of the supermoon. It may appear 14 percent larger and 30 percent brighter, but the difference is subtle to the plain eye. But the reddish tint from the lunar eclipse is likely to be visible throughout much of North America, especially on the East Coast.
  “You’re basically seeing all of the sunrises and sunsets across the world, all at once, being reflected off the surface of the moon,” said Dr. Sarah Noble, a program scientist at NASA.
