Dead zones are created when excess nitrogen and other pollutants in ocean water promote large blooms of algae and phytoplankton on the surface. The nitrogen gets there in a couple of ways: through river water filled with fertilizer from farm runoff and from air polluted with tailpipe and smokestack emissions. When the algae die and sink to the ocean floor, bacteria there break them down, while consuming pretty much all of the available oxygen in the water. The bacteria also proliferate wildly, taking over the ecosystem and exacerbating the oxygen depletion. If conditions like strong currents, which are common...

...toward the end of the day, Franken finds a way to connect. He's at the Rum River Family House Residence, a place for recovering-addict moms. And he doesn't even consider making a joke about the fact that it's the world's worst-named rehab center. Sitting around the living room, drinking coffee and eating lemon bars that the recovering meth moms have made, Franken reveals that he was "co-dependent" with someone close to him. As they tell their addiction stories, he's perfectly empathetic, nodding and using the language of recovery like someone mistakenly doing...

...Strategies, a bipartisan polling firm in Washington. "In other words, people who don't need a President can afford to vote for Obama because he's exciting, represents change, etc." Which is why, Riehle says, Obama did so badly in some blue collar areas - places along the Ohio River, for example, where Clinton beat him by two- and three-to-one margins...
