Marlohe: Bond girl dead, time for bond woman
French actress Berenice Marlohe, who plays the latest Bond girl in Skyfall, says unlike past Bond girls she plays a more complex role which represents the way women are today. Marlohe, 33, who is on the verge of international fame thanks to her role in the 23 Bond film, is hopeful that her character of Severine will be different from the “one-dimensional” Bond girls of previous films, the Daily Mail reported.
“The Bond girl is dead. She is history. It’s time for the Bond woman. A girl is a jeune fille; a girl is 15 or 16 or 17. Too much in movies we see skinny teenage girls who are too young to have anything to say or to have any life experience to draw on to show what it is to be a woman today... But Severine is different; she is complex,” says Marlohe.

Scientists ‘find’ Source of water on moon discovered
Washington: Scientists have discovered that the most likely source of water on moon is the constant stream of charged particles from the Sun known as the solar wind. The findings by researchers from the University of Michigan imply that ice inside permanently shadowed polar craters on the moon could contain hydrogen atoms ultimately derived from the solar wind.
Theoretical models of lunar water stability dating to the late 1970s suggest that hydrogen ions (protons) from the solar wind can combine with oxygen on the moon’s surface to form water and related compounds called hydroxyls, which consist of one atom of hydrogen and one of oxygen and are known as OH. Researchers present infrared spectroscopy and mass spectrometry analyses of Apollo samples that reveal the presence of significant amounts of hydroxyl inside glasses formed in the lunar regolith by micrometeorite impacts. — PTI
