Despite being most commonly recognized for the cessation of monthly period, menopause symptoms, unfortunately, involve far more than simply an ending of the regular monthly cycle. Other menopause symptoms include hot flashes, night sweats, anxiety, sore joints, forgetfulness, digestive problems, fatigue and dizziness. While is often a consequence of struggling to deal with all the other menopause symptoms a woman may be facing, these can be disturbing as they are capable of disrupting a healthy quality of life. Read over the following page for more information on handling the symptoms of fatigue and dizziness.
What is Fatigue and Dizziness?
Fatigue can describe a range of things related to lethargy and general tiredness. Fatigue can be both physical and mental, characterized by the inability to function at the level of your normal abilities. People suffering from mental fatigue will often simply feel sleepy.
Dizziness can describe two distinct sensations. The first is the feeling of lightheadedness as if you are about to faint or pass out. The second is a feeling of vertigo, the feeling that you or your surroundings are moving when there is no actual movement. At its worst, dizziness can cause nausea and even vomiting.
What are the Causes of Fatigue and Dizziness?
During the fluctuating hormones period of menopause, there are a range of things that can cause fatigue and dizziness. For example:
Estrogen deficiency. A lack of estrogen in the body can cause insomnia, and low estrogen levels can thus lead to dizziness, tiredness, depression and an inability to concentrate.
Progesterone deficiency. The decrease in progesterone hormone during menopause can result in imbalances leading to feelings of sickness and fatigue. Normally progesterone helps boost the libido and keep energy levels up.
Hypothyroidism. Some women going through menopause develop problems with their thyroid, or a disorder called hypothyroidism, which can make you feel tired and cause hearing and sight problems as well.
Vertigo. Dizziness is a common result of a decrease in estrogen and progesterone levels. This is also described as vertigo.
During menopause a woman's bones lose their ability to use calcium as efficiently as in the past. As the bones become progressively weaker, women often experience a slight energy loss. This is just one of the factors that contribute to what is commonly known as menopause fatigue.
What Can be Done about Fatigue and Dizziness?
Because the symptoms of menopause are so often related to the problems of hormonal imbalance and estrogen deficiency, the simplest and most effective solution to alleviating these symptoms is to restore hormone levels to normal. This can be done in a variety of ways. The first, and irrespective steps, involves making sure that you have a healthy, consistent and sustainable exercise and diet regime.
As simple as it sounds, it is absolutely imperative that the body is fit and healthy so it can support the re-growth of hormones. The second step can involve taking either artificial estrogen products or medicines that help the body stimulate the production of its own hormones. The latter, through the use of alternative medicines, is becoming increasingly popular, given that they are not typically associated with the side effects that occur in other estrogen supplements.

The levels of cytotoxic aldehydic products in different culinary oils, with or without thermal stress, (routine domestic or commercial frying) were determined by thiobarbituric acid method. The results showed that (i) thiobarbituric acid reactivity was much higher in edible oils rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids than those rich in saturated fatty acids or monounsaturated fatty acids, even without thermal stress, (ii) the lipid peroxide levels were in proportion to the duration of thermal stress, (iii) nature of the container used (steel, iron or teflon-coated) had no significant effect on the extent of lipid peroxidation under identical conditions of thermal stress and (iv) thermally stressed oils collected from hotels and roadside caterers contained higher levels of cytotoxic aldehydic products, when compared to oils thermally stressed under domestic frying conditions. These results suggest that dietary ingestion of thermally or autoxidatively stressed polyunsaturated fatty acid rich culinary oils is more harmful compared with those similarly treated oils rich in saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids.

Joseph Barcroft, Professor of Physiology at Cambridge, lived, studied, and taught in the Golden Age of Physiology in England. He was born in The Glen near Newry, County Down, near the Belfast-Dublin Road in Northern Ireland, beyond the Mourne Mountains. He so loved his ancestral home that he returned to it regularly throughout his professional career. His parents were well-to-do Quakers, and made possible an excellent education. Franklin, in the biography of Barcroft,1 described him as "precocious" because of the circumstances that surrounded his acceptance of the Bachelor of Science degree by London University at the age of 19. A dissertation entitled An Investigation of the Gaseous Metabolism of the Salivary Glands was one of the requirements for the Doctorate of Philosophy by Cambridge University.
A glittering array of British and international physiologists were his associates, teachers, or pupils. These included J. N. Langley, M. Foster, W. H. Gaskell,

The St. Joseph Academy football team has its agenda. Jacksonville Trinity Christian has its agenda.
There is faint, if any, resemblance between their agendas.
Trinity, the powerhouse that has sent players like Guss Scott to the University of Florida and Gerard Ross to Florida State, is locked on landing a state championship which, for all their recent success, has managed to elude the Conquerors.
The Flashes, frankly, are trying to get through Friday's District 5-1A game in Jacksonville in good health, build for the future and perhaps showcase their better players for the dozens of college scouts who'll be there to check out the studs from Trinity.
Trinity is 3-1 and was ranked first in class 1A before last Friday's 55-13 beating from New Smyrna Beach, the eighth-ranked team in 4A. The only class 1A teams on the Conquerors' schedule are their district opponents. They have 28-21 victories over class 4A Belleview and 2A Miami Pace to go with a 42-6 rout of 1-5A rival Baldwin.
The loss to New Smyrna dropped Trinity to fourth in class 1A.
The 0-4 Flashes have been outscored 189-7, most recently 61-0 in their homecoming game Friday with Jacksonville Episcopal.
"Strategy" and "keys to victory" weren't terms tossed around in a Monday afternoon interview with St. Joe coach John David.
"We'll go out there, they'll go out there and we'll play," he said. "I know (Trinity coach Verlon Dorminey) has got to get playing time for his starters because of the scouts that will be there. (SJA linemen) George Davis (6-2, 234) and Jamie Weimer (6-7, 250) will be there, too.
"Really, my concern is keeping these kids healthy, keep the attitudes good and build."
The building begins at quarterback, where the Flashes already have lost B.J. Packo and Travis Martin to season-ending injuries.
"What we do, first, is we bring Mark Bialcowski along," David said. "I thought, when he had the time, Mark threw the ball well (against Episcopal). We haven't been a good pocket team, so we're going to try and move him."
The coach also praised the effort of running backs Trevor Scott and Jon Cozart in the Episcopal game and was particularly pleased with the performance of undersized (5-5, 180) tackle-turned return man Zack Eberhardt.
"He's like a human fireplug that can't be tackled. The crowd started chanting his name," David said. "He's a soccer player and he never gets winded. He leaves it all out there on the field."
A couple more Flashes left Friday's game with injuries that will likely keep them out of action against Trinity. Defensive back Paul Laubacher (concussion) would be replaced by Jacob Eaton, wideout Jeremy Butcher (leg) by Chris Maguire.
Ideally, the list won't grow Friday night.
"It's going to be a real tough situation," David said. "I don't want to sit here and complain. This is a great school and these are great kids. But we only have 40 playing football. Ten of them are seniors and only seven had ever played (organized) football before.
"The thing is to keep the kids healthy and keep them learning."

Checked your kid's college schedule lately?
"(The course) focuses on giving students tools to understand pornography as a historical and contemporary phenomenon," Schwyzer told The College Fix. "Students today live in a porn-saturated culture and very rarely get a chance to learn about it in a safe, non-judgmental, intellectually thoughtful way."
The course doesn't merely consist of viewing pornography. In fact, students do not view porn inside the classroom. Instead, they watch it on their own time as homework. Assignments include journals, a research paper, and a final exam, Schwyzer explained.
Schwyzer, professor of history and gender studies at the Southern California-based community college, said the elective provides students an avenue to discuss pornography in an academic setting.

Dr. Sam Muslin was Awarded LA's Best Cosmetic Dentist for 2016
Santa Monica • Beverly Hills • Los Angeles
One of the greatest advancements in modern dentistry is non-surgical, non-invasive under bite correction. This treatment is a true bite correction and not just cosmetic camouflage with porcelain veneers. The treatment does not require grinding down healthy tooth structure and improves the natural facial features of the patients face.
Correct Under Bites without Braces, Jaw Surgery or Grinding Down Healthy Teeth
How to Fix an Underbite in One or Two Weeks
The most difficult part of this treatment is helping the patient to believe that this treatment is not "too good to be true". The second most difficult part of the treatment is to help the patient understand that this is not "smile lift" or "anti-aging dentistry. This is a specific method developed in order to avoid confusion with any other methods and it only takes a week or two.
The Chin is Really Smaller than it Appears to be
The secret to this method is to know the natural location for the patient's bite and jaw position. This patient's chin looks larger in the "before" photo because her bite makes her chin look larger than normal. The chin looks smaller in the after photo because the bite and chin position is idealized. The profile can also be significantly improved as this treatment using Face Lift Dentistry® method with VENLAY® restorations that actually corrects the patient's bite.
Healthy Jaw Position = Smaller looking Chin with Under Bite Alternative Method
The treatment was completed in only two weeks, no pain, no shots, no grinding down healthy tooth structure and we know that it sounds too good to be true. The secret to getting an actual under bite correction is with idealizing the patients jaw position with a quick, easy and painless Face Lift Dentistry® method.
What is an Underbite?
An underbite is a Class III malocclusion or "bad bite". An underbite is when a person's lower jaw (mandible) protrudes or extends forward, and in front of the upper jaw (maxilla), giving the chin and lower teeth prominence. The majority of under bite, and even overbite, cases can be corrected by non-surgical bite correction such as braces. In its severe form, an underbite can distort the shape and appearance of a person's face, and even dramatically affect their speech. These extreme cases are also called skeletal malocclusions. The cause behind skeletal malocclusions, is either a very large mandible (overbite) or a very short maxillary bone (underbite), and often requires surgical treatment or orthognathic surgery.
Malocclusion Causes
A protruding lower jaw is generally hereditary because of the difference in size between the large lower jaw and smaller upper jaw. Bad chewing habits and thumb-sucking generally do not cause the protruding lower jaw. Thumb-sucking generally causes the chin to look small because the lower jaw is pushed back that is generally associated with an overbite whereas an under bite classically causes the chin to look too large because the jaw is protruding forward.
Undebite Treatment Considerations
There are a number of considerations to think through before attempting bite correction treatment for a malocclusion, such as an under bite. The first factor to consider is the age of the patient. According to the American Association of Orthodontics, an orthodontist should see a patient by the time they are 7 years of age. The idea being that bite corrections are more easily performed during a child's growth spurt. While baby teeth are still present, orthodontists can spot problems with jaw growth, lower risk to protruding front teeth, correct harmful oral habits, and guide permanent teeth into a more favorable position that promotes better oral health.
Another factor a patient should consider is the physical dysfunction an underbite causes in their daily life. Some people experience speech impediments such as lisps, while others experience low self-esteem. Teenagers are extremely vulnerable to bullying and other teasing behaviors, and underbites can elicit undue stress at a particularly difficult time in their lives. Secondly, a patient must consider the severity of the underbite. If it interferes with a patient's ability to chew or speak, or makes them feel self-conscious, then it may be worth considering. Since treatment plans for underbites can be lengthy, a patient must decide for themselves whether they can truly commit to treatment. They must also fully understand both the risks and benefits involved.
Porcelain Veneers can't Correct Under Bites
This cannot be done with porcelain veneers, as porcelain veneers cannot correct the bite. Veneers are only, as Dr. Muslin puts it, "cosmetic camouflage". He also believes that, "True under bite correction should involve an improvement in the patient's bite along with a better facial profile". Most patients do not have the most natural jaw position even if they have an overbite or under bite and these patients are really physically compromised. Bad bites physically handicap the patient for their entire life span.
Why do the Dentists tell me I have to have Jaw Surgery?
When malocclusion issues cannot be corrected by braces alone, surgery is another option. Orthognathic or jaw surgery is a procedure that can be very complex depending upon the severity of the malocclusion and the cause behind it. In general, the surgery involves two possible procedures: cuts in the bone to realign the upper jawbone forward, or cutting the bone and repositioning the lower jawbone to realign the chin and lower teeth back. Some cases may also require a combination of the two procedures.
For those suffering from moderate to severe underbites, bite correction in the form of orthognathic surgery is an excellent option. Since this is an extensive procedure, no one should commit to this lightly. One major factor when considering surgery is the cost. Dental or medical insurance may or may not cover the entire surgical procedure. It's also important to understand that orthodontics may be required as part of the treatment plan after the surgery is completed. Finally, since various medical and dental professionals can be involved in underbite correction, the cost can be high. If surgery is required, the cost of the anesthesiologist, the orthodontics and the post-surgery care are all contributing factors. Other factors to consider include:
- Time spent away from work or school
- Associated discomfort
- Risks and complications such as infection and lip numbness
Deciding upon surgery is a truly personal choice. But with the help of your regular dentist, a qualified oral surgeon and orthodontist, you should feel totally confident in your decision to begin the next chapter of your new life with a healthier and improved smile.
The professions solution has been jaw surgery and braces and for some patients this is the best course of treatment. However, jaw surgery has risks and there are problems after surgery. Patients miss work or school and spend a great deal of time going to the orthodontist for braces. Very few people have ever heard or know of the Face Lift Dentistry® method. Dr. Muslin will begin training other dentists in the future.
Jaw Surgery Alternative
Improve Facial Profiles without Risk of Surgery
A protruding lower jaw is generally hereditary because of the difference in size between the large lower jaw and smaller upper jaw. Patients with under bites are very self-conscious of their lower jaws and when they learn that their lower jaw is actually more normal in size they are excited about the treatment. This patient's lower jaw was in an unhealthy position until his under bite was corrected using the Face Lift Dentistry® method.
Improved Facial Profiles - Before and After
This patient was treated without the use of braces or surgery. In the "before" photo, she has a large looking chin that is really not too large. The chin looks large because of her bite which once corrected, her chin looks and actually "is" normal in size. Her chin looks smaller because her new bite moves the chin to a healthy position. Her facial profile looks balanced because the bite was built to establish a healthy jaw position, which at the same time improved the proportions of her face.
Correcting the Under Bite and Self Esteem
Low self-esteem associated with a large chin and oversized lower protruding jaw can be a problem for these patients and the treatment has generally involved surgery and braces. Although surgery is the most common form of treatment, there are less invasive choices that have distinct advantages.
When should a Malocclusion be treated?
Treatment is best completed after 18 years of age because the lower jaw can keep growing if treatment is started too early. However, early treatment can be helpful and minimize the impact of poor self-esteem.
Under Bite Correction and Age Reversing Dentistry
Under bite correction without grinding down any of his natural teeth, without jaw surgery and without braces. Treatment took a matter of weeks instead of years and the patient has something he could not get with jaw surgery and braces . . . white teeth and the perfect bite for his facial structure that was tested in advance. You can't test surgery.
Correcting an Under Bite
Correcting or treating the protruding lower jaw depends on the severity of the jaw size problem. The greater the severity, the more surgery and braces are indicated. However, many patients can have a non-invasive surgical alternative that is unfortunately seldom presented as an option to the patient.
Jaw Surgery Alternative to Under Bite Correction
You Can't Test Jaw Surgery
Surgery is not the only treatment choice available today and you cannot reverse surgery. There are minimally invasive, remarkably successful treatment alternatives for patients with under bites, with one of the most progressive high tech treatments available today. Dr. Sam Muslin's exclusive Face Lift Dentistry® alternative to jaw surgery can be completed in as little as one week. His results speak for themselves. Visit the Before and After Photo Gallery for untouched and unaltered photos of his no braces, no surgery correction methods that do not require grinding down the patient's teeth. You cannot test the results of jaw surgery but you can test the results of the Face Lift Dentistry® method.
Under Bite Correction and VENLAY® Restorations
This is a "patent pending" method that uses VENLAY® Restorations that were developed by Dr. Muslin in order to correct under bites and overbites and bad bites without grinding down healthy teeth. All 28 VENLAY® Restorations were placed in one afternoon and he went to the Los Angeles Dodger Game that evening and ate normally. You can't do that with surgery and braces.
Correction with Face Lift Dentistry®
Dr. Sam Muslin's unique Face Lift Dentistry® treatment is the analysis of the patient's facial features that can be enhanced by only working on the patient's teeth. Big changes in the shape of the patient's face can be achieved quickly. The health of the patient is improved because the bite is now biologically balanced and he can design the teeth to support the face permanently. The facial support and facial dimensions are created by his facial analysis that combines with his scientific knowledge of TMJ treatment.
Dr. Sam Muslin analyses the face. He watches the patient speak in order to determine lip movement, thickness and the visibility of the teeth from all angles and expressions. His facial analysis is one of the most comprehensive in the industry as he has the ability to actually understand what this patient's face will look like in 10 to 20 to 30 years in the future.
Reversing Years of Aging
His lower jaw is forced forward by his bite making it look much larger than normal. His upper teeth are behind his lower teeth. Everyone is forced to adapt to the bite we have and over time the bite gets worse. This patient had cosmetic and physical problems and to solve them he was told his only solution was jaw surgery and braces that would take years at considerable risk. He was treated with VENLAY ® Restorations using the Face Lift Dentistry® method without surgery or braces and even without grinding down any of his healthy teeth in just a few weeks. He saw the actual porcelain in his mouth before it was bonded so he was in complete control of the shade, shape, feel and cosmetics. You can't do that with braces.
Face Lift Dentistry® is The New Age of Modern High Tech Care
His ability to design the teeth to support the face while developing the jaw position and facial profile while combining all of the cosmetic elements of traditional cosmetic dentistry into an elaborate treatment sequence that is easy for the patient. With over 30 years of cosmetic and reconstructive experience and one of the world's most comprehensive before and after photo galleries he has "raised the bar" on comprehensive dental care. There are a lot of cosmetic dentists but only one Face Lift Dentist®.
The Treatment
Patients have had their entire bite reconstructed consisting of every tooth in their mouth that involved replacing the old crowns, fillings, veneers and saving all of the healthy teeth in as little as just one week. Other patients that need dental implants and possibly gums treatment can take longer. Some patients get their upper teeth done in one year and then the lowers in another year.
The variations to his treatment are endless and are tailored to the patient's dental health and financial ability. On the first visits we discuss the possibilities and possibly take records if the patient wishes to move forward and on the very next day, treatment can be started if time is available and the patient is ready.
Patients Fly in from All Over the World to see this Dentist
Patients fly in from all over the world to receive his exclusive Face Lift Dentistry® treatment for the life changing benefits that last. Each patient has a unique plan and each patient has special facial features that can be enhanced.
What to Expect
On the first visit, the patient will actually see the treatment results, as the doctor will demonstrate how their faces will look after treatment. This is superior to computer imaging because computer imaging is less accurate than the patient's actual face. There is nothing better than seeing your own face utilized in understanding the type of the results that are possible with his care.
Each patient will understand how long it will take, what exactly will be done and how it will work for them. Each patient generally becomes very enthusiastic because of the non-invasive and tooth preserving expertise of his exclusive Face Lift Dentistry® treatment.
Call for a consultation with one of Dr. Muslin's treatment coordinators. They can help you understand how the treatment will work for you, or you can make your appointment and Dr. Muslin will talk with you and show you how he can help you directly.
Call for your appointment and a new level of Self-Confidence.

Defense Department's John Garing talks about using technology to help the military's branches work together
The military has access to just about any technology it wants. But the people responsible for deploying and managing those technologies face the same challenges as most businesses.
John Garing is chief information officer and director of strategic planning for the Defense Information Systems Agency, where he is responsible for helping the different branches of the military work together.
The agency spends $7 billion a year on information technology, and Mr. Garing spoke with The Wall Street Journal recently about how he spends that money, what it's like to get different groups to work together, and how he draws inspiration for the technology projects the military pursues. Here are edited excerpts of that interview.
The Journal Report
- See the complete Technology report.
Learning to Share
THE WALL STREET JOURNAL: What are the biggest challenges you face in your job?
MR. GARING: The military services are independently funded by Congress. As a result, they tend to buy things independently. The Air Force has particular needs when it comes to fast-moving planes; the Army has ground forces that are sometimes disconnected because of terrain; and the Navy has different ships that all have different needs. But a military department rarely does a mission by itself. These days it's almost always a joint task force or a coalition. In order to fight side by side with other services, there has to be a framework for sharing information, and [the Defense Information Systems Agency] provides that framework.
WSJ: Getting different groups to share information is a struggle for many businesses. What techniques have you found help?
MR. GARING: I think the key is understanding common needs. Different systems are a barrier. But often we're sharing information with coalitions that are formed ad-hoc, which brings up all kinds of policy issues.
Business Technology Blog
The Wall Street Journal examines the world of technology in business.
A good example would be in Iraq. Not all of the nations we are in a coalition with want to share everything with everyone else in the coalition. You have to have rules that allow sharing of information for that particular mission but without exposing national secrets to each other more routinely.
Technology is still an issue to a degree, but the technology is there to do most of what we want to do. It's how you apply it that makes a difference.
WSJ: What are some of the ways that you've helped control costs?
MR. GARING: We have worked out a deal with our vendors that helps us control costs in our data centers. Rather than buy the hardware and storage, we instead pay the vendor to retain ownership but put the devices in our data centers. We pay them for what we use and no more. It has cut down the time and cost of running a data center by about 25%. More importantly, if we need processing power we don't have to go through [a whole new bidding process]. We simply turn it on and turn it off again when we're done.
We [also] save money because we've consolidated our data centers [to four today from 194 in the early 1990s]. We use technology in place of people, which saves money. Also, most of the problems we had in operations were human-induced -- either acts of commission or omission, like missetting a router or firewall, or a patch that wasn't applied. By reducing the number of people that touch our equipment we reduced our exposure for human-induced errors. So reliability and security go up as well.
WSJ: The conventional wisdom is that mainframes are an outdated technology, but the work you do on mainframes is growing 10% a year. Why?
MR. GARING: First of all, mainframe security is very good. Second, they are very fast and powerful machines. Third, they can do things that it would take racks and racks of servers to do. So while there aren't very many new applications being written for the mainframe, we're still finding new ways to use them.
An example is our payrolls, which already ran on a mainframe. We [wrote software to let people access their payroll information] so we just did it for the mainframe. We're buying new mainframes [when the old ones wear out]. There's no plan to go wholesale to client server like there was years ago.
Finding Inspiration
WSJ: Where do you draw inspiration for technology projects?
MR. GARING: I like to visit companies like Salesforce.com and Google. We've also spent time with logistics companies like UPS and FedEx. And even financial-services companies like J.P. Morgan Chase and Citigroup. We find out that they have challenges very similar to what we're facing.
At our annual conference we heard from Travelocity and Amazon.com, and they talked about how a good scalable platform is an important foundation. When you have that, software developers can concentrate on the actual application itself instead of how it will run. So we are trying to do that.
WSJ: What are some specific ideas you've picked up from these meetings?
MR. GARING: UPS has a device called a DIAD that the driver brings to you so you can sign your name when they deliver a package. There is GPS in that box and it can send and receive information over the cellular network so UPS knows where that box is 24/7. Wouldn't it be nice if we could take that box and give one to every soldier? You would always know where he or she is. And you could always communicate. [The DIAD] works through the cellular system and we don't have cellular service in every part of the world that would be compatible. But we could hang a cellular repeater off of an unmanned vehicle.
WSJ: Doesn't something like that bring up security issues for you?
MR. GARING: Sure, you hear that it's not secure because it's on the cell system. And my answer is that I understand that, but we know that going in, so let the operational commander decide how sensitive the information is, how much he needs to protect and let him make the decision about what to do on the spot.
If the information was perishable, who cares? If it is strategic, you wouldn't want to use the cellular network. But what if it is "Here I am, come and get me" or "Tell me who is around me right now"? By the time an enemy would process that our forces would have moved as well. The point I would make is security questions like that need to be balanced by policy and by people like an operational commander. We don't want to dismiss something out of hand because it is on the cellular system and not encrypted. We want to see if there is an operational benefit that may outweigh that. In my view the guy on the ground should be the final arbiter of that.
WSJ: How do you view new Internet-based technologies?
MR. GARING: It seems to me that there is a lot of power in those things. Look at social networking or online maps. You could use it to find where on a battlefield the good guys are and the bad guys are. Or if you want to know where the hospitals are and where your fuel is.
There's a sense among CIOs that [Internet technology] doesn't fit what's going on in their companies. That's because the innovation these days is being done in the consumer world, and it is just a shame that we haven't been able to find any easy way to bring that inside the firewall in a meaningful fashion.
Overcoming Bureaucracy
WSJ: Most consumer technology spreads from the bottom up as people find it and start using it. Can it spread from the top down in an organization like the military?
MR. GARING: That is the $64,000 question. I think in any large institution there is bureaucracy. I think the challenge that large institutions face is that they want to do top-down programs in a very structured fashion. And the fact is that the Department of Defense is very good at deploying IT systems in five years that are four and a half years out of date by the time anyone uses it.
We need to adopt stuff much faster. One way we can get around requirements is to focus on the technology. Instead of writing down everything you need, just look at the technology and derive a requirement from that. For example, controlling a military force is not something you will find in a commercial tool. So you have to write things down, and there are many moving parts. It's hard work. But there are some times when you'll see a technology and say this appears to fill a need. And you take it inside the firewall and see if you can use it.
WSJ: How can you tell if something fits a need or not?
MR. GARING: We have a concept that we learned from Google called the sandbox. You bring a technology inside the sandbox and let people test it and see if it works. So it's not the Wild West.
But we're not sitting down and writing a requirement that goes from A to Z, either. We cobble something together and see if it works. Is it perfect? No. Does it have to be? No. We are willing to accept the 80% solution, but we have to know what the limitations are.
That's what the sandbox is for: to figure out whether something is good enough to sit out on the network. You don't want to put something that has a security vulnerability or that won't work with everything else. But we don't have to have something that does everything. We just have to have something that would give a war fighter an advantage.

The Central Intelligence Agency issued a rare public defense of its record in response to a recently published--and resoundingly harsh--history of the secretive intelligence agency.
The statement blasted Legacy of Ashes, written by veteran New York Times reporter Tim Weiner, for ignoring the CIA's successes and containing numerous errors.
"Backed by selective citations, sweeping assertions, and a fascination with the negative, Weiner overlooks, minimizes, or distorts agency achievements," according to the CIA statement.
U.S. News interviewed Weiner recently about his book, which offers a sweeping history of the CIA and how presidents have used, misused, and abused the agency. Weiner noted that the book is based on thousands of internal CIA documents.
"The story they tell is one of people going up against problems they do not understand," he said. "For lack of understanding a language or a culture or a history, the missions fail-over and over again."

Ecosystem Roles
Not much is known about the role saola play in the ecosystem. Since there are few saola, they probably do not greatly impact the surrounding vegetation. Although they provide potential prey to carnivorous mammals, because they are so rare it is unlikely that saola are important in local food webs.

Teresa Loving
Published: Sunday, January 1, 2006 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, December 31, 2005 at 10:50 p.m.
Teresa Loving isn't a businesswoman. She's a special education teacher who is turning her passion for kids into a business venture.
The 41-year-old life-long Chesnee resident plans to open a full-day program for children under age five with special needs. It will provide educational instruction, a full-time nurse, therapy, and a low student-teacher ratio.
SOAR Academy - which stands for Success, Opportunity, Achievement and Reward - will open its doors in August. It will be the only known private preschool program of its kind in Spartanburg County, and will also serve children from Union and Cherokee.
"If you're the parent of a regular education child, you have a choice-public or private school," she said. "For children with special needs, there's not a private school for them. The choice is that until they're three, they stay at home."
Loving, currently a special education teacher at Chapman Elementary, is modeling her program after one in Georgia that has been wildly accepted and appreciated by parents of disabled children who do not have much interaction with other children their age.
Less than two weeks ago, Loving found out she received the $15,000 grant she applied for through the Spartanburg County Foundation. That money will be used for a multi-sensory room, which will assist in therapy.
And a local family - John and Murray Cecil - have donated a building for the school. The 2,700 square foot space is in the ground floor of the Skylar Apartment building on South Church Street. With peeling wall paint, no lights and holes in the ceiling, it is currently in a state of disrepair. But Loving's vision and love for children with special needs is beyond what the eye can see now.
"Every way we went, there's been a door open," she said with tears of joy. "That's how we know we're doing the right thing."

Christopher Seaman
Conductor Laureate
The Christopher Seaman Chair, Supported by Barbara and Patrick Fulford and The Conductor Laureate Society
Joined the RPO in 1998
British conductor Christopher Seaman has an international reputation for inspirational music making. His diverse musical interests are reflected in his range of repertoire and he is particularly known for his interpretations of early 20th century English music, Bruckner, Brahms, and Sibelius.
Seaman was music director of the RPO from 1998-2011 and was subsequently named conductor laureate. During his 13-year tenure—the longest in RPO history—he raised the orchestra's artistic level, broadened its audience base, and created a new concert series. This contribution was recognized with an award from the American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers.
Other key positions he has held include music director of the Naples Philharmonic Orchestra, conductor-in-residence with the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra, and artistic advisor of the San Antonio Symphony. In the U.K. he was principal conductor with both the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and Northern Sinfonia.
The 2015-16 season includes engagements with North American orchestras such as the Cinncinati, Baltimore, Vancouver, Milwaukee, and Hawaii symphonies. He also opens the Auckland Philharmonia Orchestra's season and makes debuts with Kristiansand Symphony Orchestra in Norway and the Orquestra Filarmônica de Minas Gerais in Brazil.
Seaman's recordings with the RPO have received great critical acclaim. His recordings also include performances with the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra, Philharmonic Orchestra, and National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain.
In May 2009, the University of Rochester made Seaman an honorary doctor of music. In 2013, University of Rochester Press published Seaman's Inside Conducting, a wise but entertaining look at the art of conducting.

Approaches to Teaching Dickens' David Copperfield
- Editor: Richard J. Dunn
- Pages: x & 162 pp.
- Published: 1984
- ISBN: 9780873524834 (Cloth)
- ISBN: 9780873524841 (Paperback)
"This book should be a boon for a variety of undergraduate teachers. Recommended."
The novels of Charles Dickens have attracted a wide and enthusiastic readership since they first appeared in the mid-nineteenth century, and in recent decades their social, biographical, and psychological elements have brought them increasing academic attention. "David Copperfield," writes Richard J. Dunn, "serves not only to introduce Dickens or the novel but also to demonstrate the relations of fiction and autobiography and the roles of myth, archetype, and fantasy in fiction."
This volume, like others in the MLA's Approaches to Teaching World Literature series, is divided into two parts. The first part, "Materials," surveys editions of David Copperfield, background studies on the Victorian milieu, introductions to Dickens, critical and textual commentaries, and other Dickens works. In the second part, "Approaches," sixteen essays explore the many ways teachers present the novel in courses of varied subject emphasis and student experience. Contributors explain the critical assumptions that underlie their choice of David Copperfield and describe their teaching strategies. They show, for example, how they develop a sophisticated response to this universally popular novel; tailor the presentation for particular student levels; play the devil's advocate by introducing common criticisms of the work; and teach the work as a classic of world literature, as a central document of Victorian fiction, or as a combination of fiction and autobiography.

CSR Plc (NYSE:CSR)
Q4 2011 Earnings Call
February 20, 2012 9:00 AM ET
Joep van Beurden – CEO
William Gardiner – CFO
Good afternoon and welcome to the Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2011 Results Conference Call. Throughout the call, all participants will be in listen-only-mode. (Operator Instructions) Just to remind you, this conference call is being recorded.
Today, I'm please to present Joep van Beurden. Please begin.
Joep van Beurden
Thank you. Good morning and welcome to CSR's Q4 2011 and full year results presentation. My name is Joep van Beurden, CEO, and with me is Will Gardner, our CFO. Will and I will be making forward-looking statements. Before we start, I would like to draw your careful attention to our cautionary statement.
During today's presentation, we will reference estimates, plans and expectations that are forward-looking statements. The actual outcomes could differ materially due to the factors we note on this slide and in our regulatory filings. Please take a moment to carefully read the cautionary statement and refer to the disclosure in today's earnings release as well as the filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Forms 20-F and 6-K for more details.
Today's agenda, first, I will give you the overview of our Q4 and 2011 performance. Then Will will review the numbers. I'll discuss outlook and go to Q&A. First, the key messages. In 2011, we made progress in our transition to being a provider of higher margin platforms to multiple end markets. That being said, we have a lot of work to do to complete that transition: further improving margins, reducing cost, allocating our capital to areas where we can grow, improving our profitability.
For Q4 2011, our revenues came in at $244 million towards the top end of our guidance. We saw year-over-year revenue growth in Automotive of 15% and in Home of 32%. The declines in Personal Navigation Devices, or PNDs, of 56% and in handsets of 11%.
In the fourth quarter, our underlying gross margin continued to improve to 51%, up from 48.7% in Q4 2010, as we got an increased proportion of our revenue from higher-margin platforms. We have confidence in our future prospects, and as a reflection of that confidence, the board is recommending a final dividend of $7.01, resulting in an annual dividend for 2011 of $10.03 per share, an increase of 5% on 2010.
In addition, we are announcing up to a $50 million share buyback. As you know, we have platforms in voice and music, automotive infotainment, digital cameras and imaging, and we are pleased with the momentum we have in those markets.
Before I talk about the performance of our business groups, let me update you on the Zoran integration and our cost reduction programs. We have largely completed the integration with Zoran, and we have made good progress delivering towards the $130 million in costs savings as a result of both integration and our decision to no longer invest in the development of DTV SOCs, Set-Top Box SOCs, and Digital Tuners.
Our head count, which stood at 3,185 at the end of Q3, was down to 2,783 by December 31. We expect to be at around 2,400 by the end of Q2 2011.
If you look at our underlying Q4 OpEx run rate, we are well on our way, delivering $130 million in cost reduction by the end of Q2 2012. And as we implement our cost reduction plan, we will continue to look for opportunities to increase our efficiency and thereby accelerate our progress towards delivering our targeted levels of R&D and SG&A expense as a percentage of revenue.
Next, I will review the performance of our four business groups, starting with Auto. The Auto group consists of two main parts, Automotive Infotainment and PNDs. The group's $45.4 million revenue includes $2.3 million from Zoran. In Q4, strong growth in Automotive Infotainment of 15% was more than offset by a decline in PNDs of 56%, as navigation and location capabilities are moving towards in-dash navigation and smartphones.
We also faced increased competition in the PND segment. For the year, this has resulted in an 8% revenue decline for auto, from $233.1 million in 2010 to $205 million in 2011. Looking ahead, we do expect continued growth in the Automotive Infotainment market and ongoing decline in the PND market, and we are managing our investment accordingly. We do see good design win traction in Automotive Infotainment, both in SOCs and connectivity.
Moving on to the Homes Business Group, the Home Business Group consists of voice and music, consumer electronics, and imaging. DTV set-top box and digital tuners are reported separately under the Legacy Products Group. The group's $72.9 million Q4 revenue includes $15.1 million from Zoran. Excluding Zoran, Home grew with 5% from Q4 2010. Growth came from voice and music and gaming, (audio gap) where we added a major customer. For the year, our revenues in Home of $269 million are 14% higher than in 2010, driven by $20 million in additional revenue from Zoran, the growth in stereo audio and the gaming win.
On the platform side, we launched our Bluetooth SMART platform with the μEnergy development kit. Our design wins were strong with the number of Stereo Bluetooth sync qualifications with CSR voice and music silicon inside at 310 in 2011, up from 134 in 2010. This represents a market share of more than 90% for both years. We saw design wins for computer mice and keyboards for our Bluetooth SMART products. Timex selected SiRFstarIV for their GPS enabled sport watch, and aptX was chosen by a whole range of audio companies such as Cambridge Audio, Gear4 and NAD, which leads me to Mobile.
The Mobile business group consists of handsets and cameras. Q4 revenues of $92.3 million include $26.1 million from Zoran. Handset revenue was $65.1 million, which is 11% lower than Q4 2010. Camera revenue came in at $27.2 million, but for the year, mobile revenues were $323 million. That is a reduction of 5% compared to 2010.
This reduction is driven by Bluetooth being replaced by Bluetooth Wi-Fi products in smartphones and intense competition in China, somewhat offset by good traction and design wins with the SiRFstarIV 4t. Going forward, we expect continued pressure on our handset Bluetooth business, which we expect will be addresses by our CSR 9800 Bluetooth Wi-Fi chip, the development of which is on track.
On the location platform side, we've launched SiRFstarV and at CSR in Las Vegas, we have demonstrated a highly differentiated indoors location technology, which has attracted significant interest from a number of leading companies. We have also seen that the Google and Nexus adopted our SiRFstarIV location platform and that aptX was chosen by Sharp and Samsung.
Finally, our legacy product group, in the legacy product group, we are managing the products that we have decided not to invest in any longer, DTV SOCs, set-top box SOCs, digital tuners and DVD products. We've created a dedicated team ensuring full support for our current customers, finalizing designing projects that are underway, and making sure that product returns and RMAs are dealt with swiftly and professionally.
Directly upon the public announcement on December 12, we have met with all legacy product customers to ensure them of our continued support and to address concerns. We've kept in very close contacts with our customers, whom I would call understanding of the decision, but clearly this is an area where we expect the revenue to decline over the next two years. For Q4 2011, the revenue of the Legacy products was $33.4 million, slightly lower than the comparable Q4 2010 number of $34.2 million.
A few words on CSR's platform strategy, CSR has a clear strategy, and as we discussed before, absolutely key is our ability to provide so-called platforms. A platform defines the product it's part of. Our customers increasingly demand integrated platforms to power their products. Platforms drive margins, and we have such platforms in voice and music, automotive infotainment, cameras and document imaging.
Over the past two years, we have seen that our focus on platforms has driven up underlying gross margin from mid-40s to 51% in the fourth quarter. But we've also seen that our operating costs have increased, especially after the Zoran transaction. That has put our profitability under pressure and I'm not happy with that. That is why we've announced to reduce our costs with $130 million by the end of Q2 2012.
As you can see from the Q4 underlying cost base and from our head count, we have made good progress towards delivering that but there's more to do and we're very focused on that. I also want to reiterate our discipline in capital allocation. We will be allocating our capital investment to the areas where we see most growth and margin potential to drive returns.
Before I hand over to Will, let me walk you through the areas where we see opportunity to drive CSR's high-margin growth and where we're investing to make that happen. We believe there are five areas where we could experience strong growth in the medium to longer term. One, Bluetooth Smart, formerly known as Bluetooth low energy, which creates personal area networks around devices such as a smartphone, tablet, car or a TV. Bluetooth SMART connects these devices with products like keyboards and mice, remote controls, heart rate monitors, sports watches, toys, et cetera, et cetera.
Two, Voice and Music, where sounds on mobile device and signal TVs are sent wirelessly to loud speakers, sound bars or speaker docks. Three, automotive, where legislation and increasing use of location, connectivity, and video are accelerating the use of infotainment in low- and mid-end cars. Four, deep indoors location for increased tracking of persons and assets and potential additional legislation, such as E911 in the United States would place greater requirements on location technology. And five, next generation Image sensors for use in areas like security and automotive.
We believe in all of these areas, there is the potential for compelling growth in excess of current third-party expectations. We also believe that we have an advantage in these areas based on our proprietary algorithms, in-depth understanding of the technology, and our strong market position.
With that, I hand it over to Will.
William Gardiner
Thank you very much, Joep. Let me turn to the financial highlights for the quarter and for the year. During the fourth quarter, we made progress against the financial targets that we had set ourselves. Our revenue for the quarter was $244 million, at the top end of the guidance range we provided at our third quarter results, which was $230 million to $250 million. Just as a reminder, our fourth quarter included a full three months contribution from Zoran. For the full year, our revenues were $845.2 million.
Underlying gross margins for the fourth quarter were strong at 51%, towards the high end of target range of 48% to 52% and up from 48.7% in the fourth quarter of 2010. For the full year, underlying gross margins were just shy of 50% at 49.8%, again, a significant increase over 2010 when they were 47.7%. We recorded an underlying loss per share in the fourth quarter of $0.02, worse than our $0.07 profit in the prior year. For the full year, our underlying EPS was $0.20; again lower than the $0.43 of the prior year.
And to echo Joep's comments, we recognize that we need to increase our profitability and our cost reduction plans are designed to achieve that. Our cash position at the end of the quarter was strong at $277.8 million and this is a reduction from $440 million at the end of 2010, largely as a result of the Zoran acquisition and last year's share buyback.
Turning to the next page, let's compare our Q4 2011 to the prior year. Revenue for the fourth quarter of 2011 was $244 million, 32.1% increase on the fourth quarter of 2010. Zoran contributed revenue of $76.9 million in the quarter. Excluding Zoran, the legacy Zoran business decreased by 10%. Underlying operating expense for the quarter was $123.9 million, implying an annual run rate of $496 million, a good start towards our target run rate of $420 million to $430 million by halfway through the year.
We delivered an underlying operating profit of $600,000, significantly ahead of market expectations, but again not as profitable as we would like. Finally, underlying EPS for the quarter was a $0.02 loss. As you know, we report both underlying and IFRS numbers in our earnings release. We tend to focus on the underlying numbers, as those are the ones that we use to manage the business. However, given the number of non-underlying items in 2011, I wanted to provide some context for those items.
We recorded amortization of intangibles of $19 million for the year, and I'm adding up that item that appears three times in the chart that you'll see there. That was compared with $14 million in 2010, and the increase is due to the amortization of additional intangibles recorded in the Zoran deal. For 2012, we expect that number to be around $20 million. We recorded share option charges of $14 million compared to $10 million in 2010 due to the increase in our employee base following the acquisition of Zoran. For 2012, we expect that number to also be around $20 million.
To turn to the more unusual numbers, we recorded a $28 million charge in 2011 due to making a fair value adjustment to the inventory acquired with Zoran. This is a standard requirement of acquisition accounting. We recorded acquisition fees of $13 million and integration and restructuring charges of $34 million.
Turning to patent and litigation settlements, as you all know, in 2010 we had the Broadcom settlement, which is reflected in the $60 million charge. Whereas in 2011 there was a mix of settlement matters and legal recoveries with a net result of a $9 million credit to CSR.
As a result of the acquisitions we've made as well as the organic development of the business, the breakdown of our business has changed significantly. From a formal perspective, we are reporting in four segments: the Mobile Business Group, the Automotive Business Group, the Home Business Group, and the Legacy Products Group. And to be clear, the Legacy Products Group includes digital TV, SOCs, our set-top box products, DVD products as well as Digital Tuners. We also will provide you going forward with a breakdown of mobile into handsets and cameras and of auto into automotive and PND.
Let me provide you a little bit of color on our segments and how we would broadly expect them to perform going forward. Our Automotive business, which is 14% of revenue, is doing well, with good growth in 2011 and good growth expected going forward driven by a combination of our strong Bluetooth and GPS products, as well as the growing SOC business with products like Prima-II.
Our PND business has been under pressure, given secular trends moving navigation both in-dash and into smartphones, as well as increasing competition, and we would expect both of those things to continue. Our Handset business, at 27% of overall revenue, has been under pressure and we would expect that to continue in 2012, as discrete Bluetooth continues to be replaced by Bluetooth and Wi-Fi combos in smartphones.
Starting in 2013, we would expect that to stabilize as we deliver our CSR 9800 Bluetooth Wi-Fi combo chip and our locations business continue to strengthen. Our camera business has stabilized after a difficult first half of 2011, given the tsunami in Japan and the loss of the Cisco Flip business. We would expect that business to continue stabilizing in 2012.
Our Home Business saw good growth in 2011 which we would expect to continue in 2012, with success expected in Voice & Music, while the consumer segment is expected to be somewhat weaker in spite of our market share gains, given trends in that sector. And finally our Legacy Products Group should start to decline somewhat towards the end of the year before declining more rapidly next year and into 2014.
One of the key objectives of our platform strategy is to deliver higher gross margins, which we believe are a strong indicator of the differentiation and sustainability of our business. During the fourth quarter, gross margins were particularly strong, as a result of including a full quarter of Zoran business, as well as the ongoing shift to higher-margin platform business. We continue to expect our gross margins to be between 48% and 52% and probably near the middle of that range for 2012.
To reiterate what Joep has said, we are very focused on delivering returns for our shareholders, and that starts with increasing our underlying profitability. I would like to remind people of where we started 2011 and the commitments that we've made. During the first half of 2011, before any cost reduction actions were taken by either Zoran or CSR, the combined company cost base was approximately $570 million, which is the combination of the first two bars on the left-hand side of that chart.
I should remind you that Zoran had already committed to saving $30 million, much of which has already been achieved. As a result of the various actions that we've committed to in 2011, we expect to reduce our operating cost base by $115 million and our cost of goods sold by a further $15 million. And we are well on track to delivering both of those commitments. Our run-rate cost base in the fourth quarter was $496 million, which is a good start to achieving our target.
So to reiterate our position for 2012, we continue to expect full year underlying operating expenses to be between $430 million and $440 million, with a run rate of $420 million to $430 million achieved by the end of the first half. That would imply first and second quarter underlying costs in the range of $110 million to $120 million per quarter. As we go through the program during the course of the year, we will continue to look for additional opportunities to reduce our cost base and thereby accelerate our progress towards delivering our targeted levels of SG&A and R&D revenue.
Turning now to our tax position, as expected our underlying tax rate for the year was 25%, towards the higher end of the low 20% guidance that we have been giving. We would expect a similar low 20% underlying tax rate going forward. You will also have seen that we recognized significant deferred tax assets, $90 million during the fourth quarter, as we have completed more of our tax planning and are becoming increasingly confident that we will be able to utilize many of tax losses that we have around the world.
On a cash basis, we paid small amount of tax in the fourth quarter, $1.4 million. We continue to expect that we will not pay significant amounts of tax for several years, until 2015 at least.
As to working capital, our inventory days increased significantly during the quarter, as we are holding higher levels of inventory than usually related to our PND business, which saw a drop-off over the second half of the year. We expect to be able to realize that inventory and bring inventory days down to more normal levels over the course of the next several quarters. Otherwise our inventory is in good shape. Our debtor days are also well under control at 40 days, similar to levels in the fourth quarter of 2010.
Our free cash flow during the period was a negative $10.1 million, as our high levels of inventory reduced our normally high levels of working capital inflow during the period. But nevertheless, we continue to have a strong cash position, $277.8 million, well ahead of our year-end target.
Finally just a few comments on litigation, we continue to face litigation across our business and as we have said before, we expect that to continue. That being said, we had several positive outcomes during the quarter. We concluded all of our merger-related class action lawsuits with all of the costs covered by Zoran's insurance. The claim from investors at NordNav for their $17.5 million earn-out payment was determined in arbitration in our favor. We also won our claim for our legal fees to be paid by NordNav's investors, and other cases, as detailed on this slide, continue.
Thank you for your attention and with that I will turn it back over to Joep.
Joep van Beurden
Thank you, Will. Before we go to Q&A, let me summarize. I believe Q4 shows progress in a number of areas. Cost control, we are well on our way to take out $130 million of cost by the end of Q2 2012. Margin progression, as the share of platform revenue is growing, our gross margins benefit.
Revenue traction, although there are certain parts of our business where we continue to expect pressure on the top line – handsets, PNDs, our legacy products – we are growing in the areas where we believe we have a platform presence and strong position such as automotive infotainment, location, voice and music and Bluetooth SMART. We do realize that we have work to do to improve our profitability and we're very focused on that. For Q1, we expect our revenues to be between $205 million and $225 million.
And with that let's go to Q&A.

text: I would like to have certain words in my blog to be linked to glossary pages I will be adding, and in some cases I want some text to be replaced by images I will be using a lot. Rather than go through and manually add all these links, is there a plugin that will do it for me? Something that will spider my content, and find the words I add, with links defined manually?

Hi guys,
there are not many votes on the "Compatibility vote".
I would really like to use this plugin but I am worried about the future of the development.
Are you guys still active? Is is working on 3.4.x and maybe on the 3.5.xbeta?
I ask before setting up some more test environments. If you do not reply I will do my own testing and post the results here.

This is plain stupid.
When installed I thought this was the app which I was looking for. However the homepage for the app looks spammy and it fails to give users data easily.
The developer needs to follow the KISS philosophy. In effect the user has to elect one WWO ID or a WUN ID. These are not simple to come by. After trying to find a resource [as on the developer's own page the map data doesn't help I gave up and uninstalled the app.
Don't waste your time with this app.

Best of all weather Plugins for WordPress.
This was a nice, good plugin, but it appears from the plug-in author's page that it is no longer being developed. It says it is only tested up to 3.3.x.
I hope that changes in the future. :-)
Only issue is with the realfeel that is always the same as the normal (probably because it is a left over).
Other than that works great.

-Bill McKibben, co-founder of 350.org and author of the national bestseller Deep Economy
"Skiers rejoice when snow falls and Inuit hunters welcome sea ice, while commuters find winter storms an inconvenience. Henry Pollack has a much broader view. Speaking eloquently, forcefully, yet lyrically, he explains how snow and ice are the clockworks of our planet. A World Without Ice is a fascinating, scary, but informative portrait of Earth's delicate climate balance and the thresholds we are staring across."
-Jon Turk, author of The Raven's Gift
"The work of Dr. Pollack and the IPCC in bringing attention to the very serious dangers posed by climate change has been justly praised. This book shows how essential ice-caps and glaciers are. It is a welcome contribution to planetary conservation."
-Wangari Maathai, 2004 Nobel Peace Prize Laureate and author of The Challenge For Africa
"A World Without Ice is part a history of ice on Earth, part a scientist's love song to his subject, and part an unsentimental eulogy to ice...The book offers a great opportunity for the novice to dip into climate science first-hand."
-San Francisco Chronicle
"Seldom has a scientist written so well and so clearly for the lay reader. Pollack's explanations of how researchers can tell that the climate is warming faster than normal are free of the usual scientific jargon and understandable."
-Betty Galbraith, Washington State Univ. Lib., Pullman; Library Journal, starred review
"Pollack, a geophysicist with the admirable ability to communicate in a language other than math, presents the stark facts of today's [climate] situation and offers careful descriptions of the likelihood of a frightening future, should earth's climate continue to change. . . . But he also offers some realistic hope that catastrophes may be mitigated, if not avoided."
