Quiet, rural Oxford, Mich., is a place where people don't often lock their doors. Where they know their neighbors, wave to them from pick-up trucks on the way to grab an ice cream cone, maybe stop by the high school to watch the kids play football. On the surface, it doesn't have much in common with New York City, Chicago, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Long Island, Louisiana. But the same thing runs beneath them all: the thrum of violence.

Now, think about that sea of shag carpet at the bottom of the actual ocean. But instead of nylon pile, it's made of worms. It's not just the stuff of nightmare, it's real: A city of tubeworms was discovered living in near freezing temperatures off the coast of Alaska. Scientists say some could be a few centuries old.

Unexpected summer guests can be such a drag: all of the extra grocery shopping, time spent planning entertainment and being on your best household behavior (ie., no watching television in your unmentionables).
