"There's so much coalbed methane in the Four Corners area, it doesn't need to be that crazy of a leak rate to produce the emissions that we see.

Dear Annie: Two months ago, I discovered my husband had been texting and calling my oldest son's girlfriend. My son told me about it after his girlfriend asked him, "What's wrong with your father?" She said it began last June, but claimed it was only one call and a few texts. It made me feel ugly and unwanted.

Coalbed methane is a variety of the gas&nbsp;stuck to the surface of coal, and has been extremely hazardous to miners in the past.<br>

I suspect she is leaving out the extent of her involvement in encouraging him. This has crushed what was left of my feelings for him. He already had committed "financial infidelity" to the point where I was paying most of the bills with my small disability income. He always had some excuse for not providing any money to the household. I even had to apply for provisions from the local food pantry.

When this indiscretion happened, I finally had enough, and we are now separated. The problem is, it is very awkward for me to interact with my son's girlfriend. Am I jumping the gun on getting a divorce? What should I do?

"We see this large signal and it's persistent since 2003," Kort said. "That's a pre- fracking timeframe in this region.

Dear Crushed: Please stop blaming your son's girlfriend for your husband's inappropriate behavior. She probably had no idea how to react to his texts and calls without causing a family problem. You need to forgive her for attracting your husband. Then decide whether you are better off with or without him. If you cannot do this on your own, get some counseling.

Dear Annie: Your suggestion that hosts ask whether guests have food requirements blew my mind. We recently had an informal buffet party for 14.

At that party, we had a guest who chooses not to eat beef, one who cannot eat anything containing seeds or nuts, one whose diet is restricted because he is on heart medication, another who has to restrict sugar intake and probably several who want to restrict salt intake. No one starved to death. They only needed to avoid what they could not eat without making a fuss.

This new study introduces a new technique for finding methane leaks using a satellite instrument, dubbed the European Space Agency's SCIAMACHY, to determine methane measurements over a specific area.

Our group members always contribute something to the menu, so when the vegetarian asks what she can bring, I suggest she bring a vegetarian dish. If a guest has dietary problems, it would seem that the guest should explain that enough in advance to give the hostess a chance to decide what to do about it, but then the guest should offer to contribute something that he or she can eat. Individual "orders" need to be reserved for restaurants.

Dear Concerned: We are not talking about guests' preferences, particularly when there is enough variety for them to find something to eat. You are right that they will be just fine. And offering to bring a dish to a buffet is often welcome. We are talking about requirements, particularly allergies that can be life threatening. For example, avoiding a dish with nuts may not be enough. Chopped nuts can leave residue that can be inhaled or contaminate other foods, causing anaphylaxis and a trip to the emergency room. Hosts need to know these things.

@@@ "There's so much coalbed methane in the Four Corners area, it doesn't need to be that crazy of a leak rate to produce the emissions that we see. A lot of the infrastructure is likely contributing," said Eric Kort, assistant professor of atmospheric, oceanic and space sciences at the U-M College of Engineering.

Coalbed methane is a variety of the gas stuck to the surface of coal, and has been extremely hazardous to miners in the past.

"We see this large signal and it's persistent since 2003," Kort said. "That's a pre- fracking timeframe in this region. While fracking has become a focal point in conversations about methane emissions, it certainly appears from this and other studies that in the U.S., fossil fuel extraction activities across the board likely emit higher than inventory estimates."

The researchers warned the Four Corners may not even be the highest emitting region just because it harbors the large distinctive gas cloud. Other huge methane producers could be convoluted by nearby sources.

This new study introduces a new technique for finding methane leaks using a satellite instrument, dubbed the European Space Agency's SCIAMACHY, to determine methane measurements over a specific area. The team discovered the high concentrations of methane over the Four Corners region by zooming in on this region and using a mathematical model to control for wind.

"We didn't know this was a region we should look at. We found it from space," Kort said. "We've demonstrated that satellite measurements can help identify, locate and quantify anomalous methane emissions in regions that are unexpected."

Methane can come from both natural and man-made source; the natural gas has 30 times the short-term short-term heat-trapping effects of carbon dioxide. Reducing methane in the atmosphere is believed to be an effective method of curbing global warming.

The findings were published in a recent edition of the journal Geophysical Research Letters.
