(FOLIO stands for Foundations Of Life And Its Options. See Folio intro )
Starting Scenario.
I'm sat doing the well known creativity challenge Name 100 Uses For A Paperclip.Suppose I want to think about the challenge in more detail? Suppose I want to be aware of my thinking itself, and the routes it takes and can potentially take? If, the day after doing my paperclip challenge, I suddenly had the thought, "Oh! I could've got more ideas by calling my creative friends for input!" how could I have generated that option while doing the exercise originally? How could I find more options like that - and potentially an unlimited number of options to explore and develop? What is the place to start?
The Fantasy Adviser
I've found a great way to start thinking about something is to imagine I have a fantasy adviser with me, offering advice. This way, I bring my thinking into the present moment - it's like a take a step back from what I'm working on to become aware of the bigger picture. It all sounds a bit "invisible friend" but it's a simple idea and doesn't involve any fancy visualisations or anything like that. It's a simple step: While I'm working on something, I switch to imagining briefly that an adviser is sat to the right of me and is offering advice.
The Advice
What form does the advice come in? To keep the start as simple as possible, I imagine that the adviser says one word (a randomly chosen one of one syllable) and I then interpret that word.
So, for example, if I'm doing the paperclip challenge and I switch to imagining the adviser and he says the word "glad". Here's some possible interpretations and ideas:
Glad: List what's good about the paperclip ideas you've generated so far.*
Glad: Focus on only creating ideas that will make people happy.
Here are some possible intepretations for the word "grand":
Grand: Get a thousand paperclips and create uses for them.**
Grand: Invent a grand paperclip - a gold paperclip, etc.
See: How to create a list of random words quickly.
More examples:
Stun: Stun the world by doing a million uses for the paperclip..
Snub: Stop doing this exercise and go and do something else!
Sink: "Sink" this challenge - drop the challenge and find another creativity challenge.
Sky: Work out how many paperclips would be in a chain that's long enough to reach the sky/space.
Skip: Make a skipping rope of paperclips.
A Possible Problem
I could, when I think about the random word from the adviser, get "stuck" on listing possible uses for the paperclip rather than taking a step back to seeing the bigger picture. For example, for the words above I could've come up with:
Glad: Bend the paperclip into a smile shape.
Grand: Sell the paperclip for a grand on eBay.
With those I've got "locked" on thinking of paperclip uses. There are a myriad of approaches among the FOLIO tools to stop this happening, but if I want to achieve this mentality right at the point of using this adviser approach I can consider that there are three main responses possible to the random word: The surreal, the irrelevant, and the normal (that gives "sin" for those of you who are as passionate (obsessed?) about acronyms as me). So, using the word "glad" again:
Glad (surreal): Run out into the streets and shout "Hallelujah for paperclips!"
Glad (irrelevant): Make a list of things in my life I'm grateful for.
Glad (normal): Ask someone what makes them glad about a paperclip - what they look for in a paperclip.***
This SIN approach can help to avoid the "locking" of the mindset. Another useful mentality is to set a little quota for each word. Sometimes I will set a quota of say, ten ideas for one word.With the paperclip challenge and the word "grand" this could give:
Grand: Make the project grand, more official
Grand: Sell the ideas, £1000 each.
Grand: Use a paperclip as a tuning tool on a grand piano.
Grand: Have a "100 uses for a paperclip" conference at the Grand Hotel.
Grand: Bend paperclips to spell the word "GRAND".
Grand: Have a grand plan - emulate the man who turned a paperclip into a house.
Grand: Melt millions of paperclips and build a grandstand.
Grand: How to take a normal paperclip and make it worth £1000?
Grand: How many paper clips can you buy for £1000?
Grand: Sell an ordinary paperclip for £1000 just for good:causes.
This quota approach can also help to avoid the locking of the mindset.
So, imagining a fantasy adviser giving me advice is a good place to start thinking about something. Each of the ideas of having a fantasy adviser or utilising of random inputs is nothing new of course, but I've found using them in combination is a great place to start using the FOLIO tools.
It's worth noting that, if I were applying the adviser approach to the here and now rather than to some hypothetical situation such as things to do with paperclips, I'd actually be interpreting the advice so that it applies to me here, now, sat at this computer typing. So, the random word "nut" from my adviser might suggest, "Go eat some nuts and relax". And that's exactly what I'm going to do :)
tl;dr: When you are working on an activity, imagine you have an adviser sat with you who is offering advice. Interpret that advice.

Random Input (Edward de Bono's technique)
* For the idea "List what's good about the ideas you've generated so far" you could, for example, for an idea like "use the paperclip as a toothpick" list that this idea "stops you from having to spend money on toothpicks" From there you could specialise in only creating paperclip ideas that help you to save money.
** "Make a suit of chain mail armour out of paperclips" springs to mind.
*** They probably haven't put too much thought into that, to be honest!

I generally don't watch much TV, mostly because I travel all the time and my DVR queue gets so backlogged I don't know where I left off. However, this is a show I may actually watch: A new pilot about the golden days of flying on Pan Am – back when air travel was sexy. It definitely sounds interesting, especially because I never got a chance to fly Pan Am because they went under when I was 8 years old.
I can't even imagine what it must have been like to fly back when people got dressed up – even in coach – and airlines took pride in their product. I flew American Airlines first class from San Francisco to NY last night and I was blown away at the cheapness of their lounge. I had to beg to get free wifi (apparently its only free for Admirals Club members) and couldn't believe they sell bags of potato chips for $2.50. So much for a luxurious experience, but I understand it's not just American who has cut back on amenities – even for premium class travelers.
That being said, air travel is much more accessible than it was in the past and relatively cheaper so I guess I shouldn't yearn for "the good old days." Especially since, back then, I doubt you could get 75,000 miles just for signing up for a credit card!

Warnaco Announces New Organizational Structure And Key Executive Appointments At Its Calvin Klein Business To Support Its Global Growth Strategies
The Warnaco Group, Inc. (NYSE: WRC) announced a new organizational structure and key executive appointments for its Calvin Klein business designed to better support its long-range strategy and growth potential.
Helen McCluskey, Warnaco's President and Chief Executive Officer, said that to maximize its Calvin Klein business, increase market share, grow direct to consumer, and expand into new markets over the next five years, Warnaco is segmenting its Calvin Klein business into two components, creating centers of excellence in creative and commercial.

Ms. Hillman will serve as Chief Merchandising Officer for Calvin Klein Jeans and Calvin Klein Jeans Accessories, a newly-created position, and will oversee all design, product development, merchandising and marketing for these global businesses across all channels and geographies. Ms. Hillman will be based in New York, where all global product design and development capabilities will be centralized, and will report to Ms. McCluskey. She joins Warnaco on April 2 nd. Most recently, Ms. Hillman served as Senior Vice President at Gap, Inc. overseeing Merchandising for Gap Women's, Men's, Accessories and GapBody. She joined Gap in 1991 and during her tenure at that company, developed broad merchandising and product development expertise across a wide range of product categories at both Gap and Banana Republic. Her experience includes the successful development and product launch of the Gap 1969 denim strategy and the GapBody Fit activewear collection as well as the development and significant growth of key businesses at Banana Republic and GapKids.
To lead the commercial center of excellence, Warnaco has promoted Mark Whyman to the new position of Chief Commercial Officer for its Calvin Klein businesses. Also based in New York, Mr. Whyman will be responsible for the commercial aspects of the Calvin Klein wholesale and direct-to-consumer businesses globally and will also report to Ms. McCluskey. In his three years at Warnaco, Mr. Whyman has done an outstanding job building and leading a high-performing organization in Asia Pacific that has consistently delivered against its objectives. An industry veteran with nearly 20 years of experience, Mr. Whyman most recently served as Managing Director of Warnaco Asia Pacific region, responsible for all commercial operations (retail and wholesale) in the region, including Hong Kong, China, Korea, Singapore, Taiwan, Australia and India. Prior to joining Warnaco, he held senior level apparel positions with Nike in the U.S. and Asia Pacific.

As the United States continues on its downward trajectory, thanks to the policies of the Obama administration, the debate rages about whether he's doing it all on purpose or whether he is merely incompetent.

I usually love citrusy scents (lemon, orange, mandarin, grapefruit, etc) but not this one! It smells really strong, like someone else mentioned - almost like it's designed for men, and I do not feel any orange scent. Not sure about basil either. I would never buy this.

Not sure why this is one of these best sellers. I received a sample of lime basil and absolutely hated it straightaway after a couple of sprays. Smells like a men's cologne. Very strong stench. Can't even be compared with my other JM favorites: English pear, nectarine, orange blossom, blackberries.

With all my heart I wished I had read some ( female!) users reviews before buying this. I LOVE citrussy, green, fresh scents and true...it HAS a sharp citrus scent. Which may well be perfect....but for a guy. It really does smell like a masculine aftershave, all spice and sharp lemon. Cannot detect even a faint whiff of the sweetness of Mandarin.
I had hoped that it would be somewhat similar to Guerlain's Aqua Allegoria Mandarin & Basil - which is a fabulous fresh, citrussy AND feminine scent although ,sadly, it has zero staying power - but alas, Jo Malone's version is a just male cologne, IMO. Please insist on a sample before you buy.

The lime and basil notes are very apparent with the first spray of this fragrance, along with a hint of bergamot. A woody note comes through after a short while, which is probably the patchouli base. This does have a masculine edge to it, probably because of the lack of sweetness. I don't get any mandarin at all which is a disappointment and probably would have made a difference in my opinion of this fragrance if I could detect it. Not a bad fragrance but it isn't something I would have to have. I will use my sample vial but not purchase a full size.
From Fragrantica: 'Top notes are lime, mandarin orange and bergamot; middle notes are basil, lilac, iris and thyme; base notes are patchouli and vetiver.'

I can see where this would be a polarizing scent, but since I like basil, I find it appealing, although I don't have a nose honed to the level of sensitivity that other reviewers here do (of which I am quite envious) to determine exactly why I like it.
Oddly, this particular fragrance does nothing for me, ON me. So why am I giving it a 5? Because when my husband wears it, it literally makes me want to rip his clothes off! I'm not really concerned with how it smells on my husband TO others, just that it is absolutely delicious on him, with just the right balance of fresh & spicy.

I read on another review site that this fragrance should be renamed "Basil, basil, and BASIL." Yep. That sums up my feelings on it. I'm STILL trying to smell that Mandarin (and I'm head over heels for mandarin scents).
I wanted a scent that was fairly masculine- something that didn't make me smell like I was a 14 year old that jammed out to Taylor Swift in my pajamas on Fridays. Well, this gets that done. But, be careful what you ask for I suppose.
I am a die hard fan of sweet scents. This scent is the earthiest, most natural smell that has ever been bottled. It's like hefty vegan salad taken to a picnic on a hot HOT summer day. In fact, this is the perfect scent for someone who likes earthy, true to reality natural smells. An example of this would be Katy Puckrick who's review I watched before buying this fragrance (she seems to be all for #TeamIncense). Would this be a great fragrance for someone who likes natural earthy smells? YES. I would highly recommend it to you.
But, for the Prada Candy and Dior Addict (edp) girls, this is not for you. In fact, Jo Malone might not be the brand for girls like us at all, because from the samples I smelled... well they are all very nice, ultra authentic smells but I wouldn't pay $60 to smell like something I could buy from Whole Foods for 15. I'm definitely keeping it and finishing it up (fragrances are an experience after all) but if you're considering buying from Jo, remember:
All her stuff smells lovely, divine, and ultra true to life. But, it might not be what YOU enjoy. Being a GOOD fragrance (which it is) doesn't mean you'll like it.

Two members of animal rights group PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) stage a protest against the meat industry in Henry Street, Dublin, today. The women posed in fake oversized meat packaging to draw attention to the industry's treatment of animals. (AP Photo/Niall Carson,PA)
Top Cutlines:
1. A murmuring crowd soon assembled on the sidewalk despite a livid Jeffrey Dahmer's loud insistence that how he chose to defrost his dinner was absolutely none of their damn business — Rainbow Sparkle Pony Angel.
2. In the habit of attending protests, an onlooker suggests nun too soon that they find a very large skillet (aka PETA pan) to bring more reality to the event — John Austin.
3. Sister Ann is feeling a little better, realizing upon picking up her newest recruits of the convent, they weren't selling themselves on the street like *that* — Bronx Boy; and: Frustrated by the increased competition caused by Ireland's recent legalization of prostitution, two seasoned pros launch a new marketing technique — Bent.

8 Wintry Words to Defrost Your Vocabulary
large estate-named for its original building, a "large barn"-established in 1657 on the slopes of Devil's Peak directly southeast of Cape Town, S.Af. After undergoing numerous subdivisions and changes of ownership, the estate was acquired in 1891 and enlarged by Cecil Rhodes, who bequeathed it to South Africa in 1902. It is the site of a zoo and game reserve, the Rhodes Memorial, and the campus of the University of Cape Town and its affiliated hospital (also named Groote Schuur), where in 1967 the first human-heart transplant was performed. The restored Groote Schuur was formerly the official Cape Town residence of the prime minister of South Africa; Westbrooke, another mansion on the estate, is now the residence of the prime minister.

Stephenson injured again
Luckless Bournemouth defender Tim Stephenson is set for another lengthy spell on the sidelines after damaging two parts of the medial ligament in his right knee.The 18-year-old suffered the setback in the 4-3 reserve-team victory over Forest Green Rovers and although he is unlikely to need surgery, he could be facing up to 12 weeks out.The injury comes just as the highly-rated youngster was returning to fitness following a double hernia operation. He also missed five months of last season after getting injured in a youth team game.Boss Eddie Howe told the Echo: "It is a big blow for Tim because he has really struggled to keep himself fit and has missed a lot of football."I feel for him at the moment because he has had a run of bad luck. It would be good to see him get a break and stay fit for a period of time."

An Academy Award-winning songwriter might be singing the blues if he cannot come up with $3 million this week.
"You Light Up My Life" songwriter Joseph Brooks has to post $3 million bail or $1.5 million in cash by January 29 if he wants to stay out of jail.
Brooks is accused of sexually assaulting 13 women.
A Manhattan judge increased the songwriter's previous $250,000 bail.
His lawyer says he is not sure if his client can produce the money.
The bail boost came after prosecutors upped the charges against Brooks.
The 71-year-old pleaded not guilty to charges that he lured victims by offering them auditions for movie roles.
He faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted.

Ever since my previous career and my strong work ethic, it would usually take a lot for me to call out sick. I worked at times I should have been home many times, I think to justify when I did call out, it was really serious/legit.
I also have worked in places that feel they have a right to probe and maybe bc I had/have weak boundaries when it comes to that sort of thing I would answer in detail when they'd ask "how sick?...what are the symptoms?" etc...Maybe they have no right to ask that and they "test" in that way.
I've never felt comfortable calling out and saying "I won't be in I'm not feeling well" or even "sick" esp if you don't sound that sick! That's why when I do, I do usually sound horrible.
Even personal days, I feel like I needed to say why I needed a personal day but that defies the definition doesn't it?! But when the supposed caring i.e. nosy coworkers ask if everything is okay when I come back, then I feel (and have actually been told by one) that I'm snubbing them if I say "everythings fine" even if I add "thanks for asking"
You can probably tell I'm that way from my length of posts and need to be clear
So teach me Oh wise ones What do you all say? I have great boundaries in my personal life, I have no idea why I won't enforce them in this situation.
- 11Feb 5, '12 by BlueDevil,DNP"I am taking a sick day. I plan on seeing you tomorrow. I will let you know if that changes." When asked questions, just repeat what you have already stated and politely say good day and hang up.
Just facts. No lies, no excuses, no apologies.
- 6Feb 5, '12 by caliotter3Quote from BlueDevil,DNPThis post says it. Go into explanations and they will talk you into coming to work and doing overtime as well."I am taking a sick day. I plan on seeing you tomorrow. I will let you know if that changes." When asked questions, just repeat what you have already stated and politely say good day and hang up.
Just facts. No lies, no excuses, no apologies.
- 1Feb 5, '12 by BlueDevil,DNPBy the way, I've called out twice in 26 years (once for a pyelonephritis when I called from my hospital room, and once when I was in labor), so it is largely theoretical. I just wouldn't take any bunkum from that coworker of yours IIWY.
- 0Feb 5, '12 by psu_213, BSN, RN"I'm not feeling well, and I won't be in tomorrow." Or, simply "I won't be able to come in tomorrow." It is not their business nor do they have the right to know what your symptoms are, how sick you are, what treatments you have tried at home, etc.
As for your coworkers, if they feel snubbed that you did not disclose to them: well, that is their problem and you should not feel bad about it. I think "I'm feeling fine" is an appropriate, polite response.
On a side note, I get sick now and then, whatever, it happens; I treat sick pts (and some that are not so sick) all day. I don't really want to hear about my coworkers' illnesses. I'm not sure why they would be interested in mine...beyond saying "I'm feeling better, thanks."
- 10Feb 5, '12 by Ruby Veei say "this is ruby vee, and i'm calling in sick for xxx shift." that's it.
- 0Feb 5, '12 by NursetasticMy personal issues and possible medical problems are nobody's business. I earn PTO and am allowed to use it as "call off" only 4 times a year. I've never exceeded 2 in a year. I feel no duty to give them any information other than I'm not coming in. If they press, I tell them it is personal. I've never had an issue with that answer.
- 0Feb 5, '12 by tokmom, BSNI tell them I'm sick. My place does not badger, so there is no pressure to ramble on with symptoms like my formerwork place did. Usually the supervisor does ask, because I'm never sick. I call in maybe once a year if even that, so they are concerned that I'm ok, lol.
- 0Feb 5, '12 by DazglueI say, "This is Dazglue, and I won't be coming in to work so-and-so shift because I'm sick". That's it. I don't like going into details because they write the reason in a public book for everyone to see. Not anyone's business to know why I'm out and not my business to know why someone else called out. And I've seen some PERSONAL stuff written down.
- 4Feb 5, '12 by CapeCodMermaid, RNIf you want a personal day off, plan it. I usually ask the person if I'm the one who answers the phone. I've had people tell me they just don't feel like coming to work. Really? If you're sick, you're sick. If you're a slacker, you're a slacker.

Adams Elementary media specialist Julie Custer reads "Pop! The Invention of Bubble Gum" to second-graders Oct. 5. SR photo/J. Bart Rayniak
There are a lot of stories to highlight from today's Valley Voice, so let's get started. We hae city council candidate Q&A stories from Spokane Valley and Liberty Lake. Today we are highlighting Dean Grafos and John Carroll in Spokane Valley and Shane Brickner and Keith Kopelson in Liberty Lake. The rest of the candidates will be featured in Saturday's Valley Voice.
A complaint has been filed with the PDC against Spokane Valley City Council candidate Marilyn Cline alleging that she is running a hairdressing business out of her home without declaring in on her financial affairs statement. Reporter Lisa Leinberger has a story on how a grant fromTarget allowed Adams Elementary to buy books for its library and volunteers also showed up to redecorate.
The city of Spokane Valley and Spokane County are in the early stages of discussions about turning the old Milwaukee Railroad right-of-way into a mixed use trail. At one point the city wanted to use the land, which is still owned by the County, to extend Appleway Blvd. to the east.
Liberty Lake Mayor Wendy Van Orman presented her proposed 2012 budget to the city council this week. It calls for reducing the city's new utility tax to three percent while purchasing a new police car, getting a new records management system for the police department and completing phase two of the city's arboretum.

Dear Dr. Alasko: Our two sons, ages 9 and 13, love technology. My husband is himself a computer geek so he thinks it's great. He says the more they know the better equipped they'll be for their future. But I worry about the human side of their lives. For instance, when they're together with their friends, all of them seem to be looking at their gadgets and doing very little talking. I worry that they won't be able to form healthy adult relationships and bond with their own children—except maybe through technology.
Dear Reader: You're right to be worried. We don't yet know whether there are permanent developmental problems when children have constant access to fast-moving technology.
At this point the experts in neuronal development seem divided. About half are optimistic, believing that electronically connected youth will have the advantage of being nimble analysts and fast decisions makers. Others are pessimistic, worrying that hyper-connected young people are too distracted by constant input to have deep-thinking capabilities. In addition, these scientists worry that the constantly-connected are becoming unable to retain information—and even train their brains to remember things—because every bit of information they might need at any time is instantly available to them on their phones.

Purchase Reason
LOVE this piece...I purchased it for my son's first apartment...very fun and funky...he loves it, too!:) The white is really ivory, so it could look "dirty" depending on the wall color around it, furniture, etc., but it worked out well for us. I bought another one (different pattern) for his dining room, and we're very happy with that one, too. A wall hanging is a nice way to fill up some space, and it also adds some sound absorption where you have hardwood floors and thin walls in an apartment community.

Lawmakers consider bill to abolish death penalty
Efforts to abolish the death penalty have never gained political traction in Washington state, but supporters of the move aren't giving up.
Associated Press
Efforts to abolish the death penalty have never gained political traction in Washington state, but supporters of the move aren't giving up.
This year's bill on the issue is sponsored by Democratic Rep. Reuven Carlyle of Seattle, who doesn't expect it to pass but says it will spur further debate at a time when public attitudes about capital punishment are changing.
"We are in the midst of a profound shift in thinking, in large part because of the impact of DNA testing," he said. "I believe the public is undergoing a rapid transformation in their view given the fact that we have repeated headlines about injustices in terms of the wrongly convicted."
The death penalty is currently used by the federal government and 33 states. Seventeen have abolished it, with Connecticut being the most recent last year, though its ban only applies to new cases.
A death penalty statute is still on the books in Oregon, but Gov. John Kitzhaber stopped an execution in 2011 and declared no one would be put to death during his time in office.
Several other states have introduced measures this year, including Nebraska, Montana and Maryland, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. The Maryland state Senate is expected to vote Wednesday on its measure.
Carlyle's bill to end capital punishment in Washington also will receive a public hearing on Wednesday before the House Judiciary Committee. It's co-sponsored by 20 other lawmakers, including one Republican, Rep. Maureen Walsh of Walla Walla.
The last execution in the state came in September 2010, when Cal Coburn Brown died by lethal injection for the 1991 murder of a Seattle-area woman. After spending nearly 17 years on death row, he was the first Washington inmate executed since 2001.
Since 1904, 78 men have been put to death in Washington. Eight men are now on death row at the state penitentiary.
A coalition known as Safe and Just Alternatives was formed in 2011 to try to have the death penalty abolished in the state. Mishi Faruqee, the group's campaign manager, said that over the past year, it has been focused on community outreach on the issue.
"I think there really is momentum for ending the death penalty," she said. "Given the budget shortfalls that Washington state is having, ending the death penalty is a very clear way for the state to save money," Faruqee said.
Death penalty cases cost about $470,000 more to prosecute and defend than aggravated murder cases that don't involve the death penalty, according to a 2006 Washington Bar report. On appeal, costs average about $100,000 more for death penalty cases than for non-death penalty cases.
Spending has become a key issue for lawmakers, who are in the midst of a 105-day legislative session aimed at patching a projected $1 billion deficit for the two-year budget ending in 2015. The figure does not include funding needed to pay for basic public education.
Still, Sen. Mike Carrell, R-Lakewood, chairman of the Senate Human Services & Corrections panel, opposes any discussion of abolishing the death penalty.
"Nobody is asking what the victims would say if they had a chance to talk," he said. "I know what the answer is. The death penalty is appropriate for extreme cases."
A companion bill in the Senate hasn't received a public hearing this session. Republican Sen. Mike Padden of Spokane Valley, chairman of the Senate Law & Justice Committee, wouldn't say why, and he didn't want to talk about his thoughts on the death penalty unless the House measure advances and is sent to his committee.
The Washington Association of Prosecuting Attorneys is split on the issue and hasn't taken a position on latest bill.
"We do defend the constitutionality of the current statute and how it has been applied in Washington state," Tom McBride, executive secretary of the association, wrote in an email. "The moral question as to whether to have a death penalty is appropriately decided by the Legislature."
The death penalty abolition bill is House Bill 1504.

Vanishing Arctic Ice
The National Snow and Ice Data Center has announced that Arctic sea ice melted to its yearly minimum extent last Sunday, which was the smallest extent since measurements began in 1979 and a whopping 49% below the 1979 to 2000 average. With ice vanishing at rates that exceed even the most sophisticated computer models there is one guarantee, that it's going to shrink even more
We know Arctic sea ice will continue to shrink for two reasons. First, we are continuing to spew greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. And second, solar radiation and melting sea ice interact as a system known as a positive feedback loop. Sunlight that hits white arctic sea ice is largely reflected back to space. Throughout modern civilization Arctic sea ice has acted as a sort of thermostat, regulating the earth's temperature. But as the climate warms, and the Arctic ice melts, the sunlight instead hits much darker seawater. Rather than reflecting that energy back to space, open-ocean waters absorb vastly more of the sun's energy, which in turn warms the water, accelerating the rate of melt.

TAMPA, Fla. (Associated Press) -- Thanks to a 911 dispatcher, an 8-year-old girl helped her mother deliver her newborn brother while waiting for paramedics to arrive at their Tampa Bay-area home.
According to Tampa Fire Rescue, Krystle Garcia was in labor at home Monday morning when she called 911. The dispatcher alerted paramedics, but they weren't quick enough to get there before the baby started to arrive.
Authorities say the dispatcher "expertly and compassionately" talked Garcia and her daughter Jazmine through the delivery of the baby boy. During the more than eight-minute call, Jazmine calmly relays the dispatcher's instructions to her mother, gets towels and other items for the baby and secures the baby's head.
"She is in so much pain," Jazmine says at one point during the call.
When paramedics arrived, they took the baby and Garcia to a hospital. Authorities say both are doing fine. The baby was named Joseph James Snyder.
Garcia later said she was proud of Jazmine for handling the stress so well, with the help of the dispatcher.
"She definitely stayed calm when she needed to. I was hysterical," Garcia said.

Largo Foods plans to transfer production from its factory in Gweedore, Co Donegal to Ashbourne, Co Meath, resulting in the loss of 110 full-time and 30 part-time jobs.
The company said it would begin consultations with staff at the plant, and would offer 70 full-time and 30 part-time staff the chance to transfer to Ashbourne.
Largo Foods produces brands such as Hunky Dorys, Tayto and Perri at its production facilities in Ashbourne, Co Meath, Gweedore in Donegal and Barnsley in Britain.
Its Ashbourne plant already employs 360 people.
Udaras na Gaeltachta said it was very disappointed by the prospect of job losses in the Gaeltacht area of Donegal.
It said it had supported and worked closely with Largo Foods over the last 18 years and regretted the implications of the proposed move.
An tUdaras said it would "prioritise its efforts and put in place a strategic marketing drive in a bid to attract new investment and employment opportunities to the Gaoth Dobhair Business Park".
Meanwhile, there are fears for over 150 jobs at a distribution depot in Dublin.
It is expected that the jobs will be lost after food wholesaler Musgrave said it was not renewing its contact with the firm.
The depot at Blanchardstown is operated by Wincanton on behalf of Musgrave.
Staff were told that the plant faces closure after Musgrave's decision not to renew its contract with the company. The contract is due to end in September.
In a statement, Wincanton said it is consulting closely with all affected employees and their recognised representatives.
The company is now entering a 30-day period of consultation with its employees and SIPTU.
