Legends of Venesum: The Fight For The Future
The year is 2125, and humanity's technology has progressed to a level that 100 years ago would have been considered impossible. Anti-gravity propulsion and a discovery that makes it possible to not only bend the space-time continuum but manipulate time itself were found. The manipulation of time was not seen as the true discovery, as it was to be seen that while one could travel through time to aA New Perspective: The Transformation From Yesterday's Politics Into Tomorrow's Spirituality

We all experience drama in one form or another. Whether its relational conflicts, financial stress, addiction, anger, overeating, or any number of problems; drama is not something that happens to us, but something that happens within us.

Amazon Prime Music launched this week, offering a million songs or so to current Prime subscribers. The service is ad-free and launches with a bit a limited selection. Peter Kafka: Because many of the details of Prime Music have been previously reported (BuzzFeed already noted that the service wont have songs from major labels until theyve been out for 6 months*; the New York Times and the New York Post have already noted that the service wont include anything at all from Universal Music Group, the worlds biggest music label) there isnt a lot more to say. Despite the limited selection, Prime Music is really a value-added feature for subscribers. Im not sure people will jump on board with $99 Prime to just stream music. This will be a nice bonus for those utilizing the shipping perks and/or streaming video options. An iOS app is now available to stream on iPads or iPhones.

When I was looking for a rear lamp for my Jeep Liberty I was amazed to find that the prices at Go-Parts.com were so much cheaper than any place else on line! Almost half the the price! I have to admit I was a bit skeptical. But, I decided to go for it. I called Go-Parts.com and was amazed at the fast and friendly service I received! As a woman, that is important to me! They treated me like I was their most important customer, answered all my questions, and my order arrived on time and in great condition. Even though, Go-Parts.com is an "internet company," it feels like your corner auto parts store when you talk to them -- maybe better -- they actually take time to talk to you! They are the first and only place I go for auto parts now. I can't recommend Go-Parts.com enough!
Price Quality Average: 4 / 5 stars I ordered passenger side mirror for my sons vehicle and Go-Part had the best prices around. The part was received quickly also. Thanksby sigridmorales -
Price Quality Average: 4 / 5 stars From the time I ordered the part (2-12-13), it took almost a month befor I had in my hands (3-5-13). There seemed to be an issue with the Go-Part item number matching up with the OEM number in their datebase. I started to get worried that I had paid for a part I wasn't going to get. However, the part did fit perfectly once I got it, and the price was very good.by Jbarnum -

It was great staying at this lovely home in Papamoa. Briar was very welcoming, easy to communicate with and the house was exactly as expected. The spa and outside area was also lovely. This was the perfect place to relax before the wedding we were attending. I'd highly recommend Briar, and her home, to other guests.
Briar made us feel at home right away as our group of friends enjoyed a relaxing weekend before returning to work the following week.
The house was nice and spacious, with plenty of beds, a large kitchen full of all the things one would possibly need and fantastic outdoor living area that receives nice late afternoon sun.
It is situated in a quiet neighborhood and minutes drive from local supermarkets and nearby beaches.
We had an amazing weekend and look forward to returning to the area next summer - thanks Briar!

The Obama administration has decided not to ask a federal appeals court in Atlanta for further review of a ruling striking down the centerpiece of President Barack Obama's sweeping health care overhaul.
Georgia might not be deeply affected by a stoppage of FEMA disaster funds -- at least in the short term. The U.S. Senate on Monday was set to vote on a bill that would in part restore money to FEMA's disaster relief fund. Georgia emergency officials say much of the already-approved federal assistance money would not be affected.
One in four Georgia children is now living in poverty, according to the census. And thirty-six percent of the state's black children and more than 40 percent of its Hispanic children are destitute
Georgia has set an execution window for a condemned Albany man one day after Troy Davis was put to death. Marcus Ray Johnson was convicted of the 1994 Dougherty County slaying of Angela Sizemore
Gov. Nathan Deal has signed legislation ratifying a freeze in the state's gas tax that took effect July 1. Deal had issued an executive order in June halting an automatic increase linked to rising fuel prices, but he needed lawmakers to also sign off. The state gas tax had been set to rise 1.6 cents a gallon, as a result of a formula. It stayed instead at 12.9 cents a gallon, rather than rising to 14.5 cents a gallon.
New figures from the U.S. Census show poverty is rising in Albany's Dougherty County faster than in any of the state's largest counties. The county had the nation's second-highest jump in poverty since 2007, and reflect trends throughout the state.
The state is asking a federal judge to dismiss part of Alabama's lawsuit over Lake Allatoona. Georgia's lawyers argue an appeals court decision over Lake Lanier earlier this week renders the Allatoona claims obsolete.
Supporters and opponents of the Troy Davis execution squared off across a street from each other in Jackson. Ultimately, by the time Davis died, police in riot gear outnumbered the vocal demonstrators. Many came from far-off parts of the state to stand with one side or the other. Police reported few incidents with the demonstrators and the sizeable media contingent.
Death penalty opponents say, they hope the execution of Troy Davis will be the catalyst for a renewed fight to end capital punishment in the U-S. Davis' defenders tried to put the most positive spin on a failed 20-year attempt to overturn the Savannah man's conviction and sentence. Amnesty International Director Larry Cox says, his group's effort to abolish the death penalty will start again.
The widow of a slain Savannah police officer says "it's a time for healing" now that Georgia has executed Troy Davis for the murder 22 years ago. Joan MacPhail-Harris, the widow of Mark MacPhail, told The Associated Press in a phone interview after Wednesday's execution that she sees "nothing to rejoice" in Davis' death and is praying for the inmate's family.

NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- The Gulf oil disaster isn't the only time a blowout preventer failed to stop an explosion. On June 3, a natural gas well in central Pennsylvania erupted despite the fact that it too was outfitted with a blowout preventer, spewing gas 75 feet into the air for 16 hours before it was brought under control.
Until recently, these so-called BOPs were touted by the industry for their ability to make dangerous drilling operations safer, or at least less dangerous. But although failures are rare, their consequences can be catastrophic.
"BP said it relied on its blowout preventer [to try and prevent the disaster,]" Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., said in opening comments Wednesday at a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee hearing. "We know that blowout preventers are not foolproof, not even close."
Lawmakers convened to discuss the Blowout Prevention Act of 2010. The bill would require offshore drilling companies to demonstrate that their blowout preventers actually work -- and that they have an oil spill response plan just in case they don't.
"Most of the time that a BOP is activated is to test it, to make sure that it's functioning normally," said Geoff Kieburtz, oil field service analyst for Weeden & Co. "BOPs are a standard piece of a drilling rig's equipment, a little like seat belts are in a car."
But, he added, "The BOP on Deepwater Horizon was tested only a short time before the rig exploded."
There are actually three different kinds of BOPs -- pipe rams, blind rams and shear rams -- each of which use various mechanisms to remotely seal off a leaking well. The pipe ram fits tightly around the pipe to cut off flow from the outside, according to Paul Bommer, petroleum engineering professor at the University of Texas in Austin. The blind ram caps the pipe by closing completely over the top of it, and the shear ram cuts through a leaking pipe and seals the open hole.
In fact, the Deepwater Horizon rig in the Gulf was outfitted with all three kinds of BOPs, according to Transocean (RIG), which owned the rig and leased it to BP (BP). Yet none of them were able to prevent the tragedy that's now fouling the Gulf with up to 60,000 barrels of oil a day.
BP spokeswoman Heidi Feick declined to say whether the BOPs on the Deepwater were at fault, noting that the accident is still under investigation.
Just like the BOPs on the Deepwater Horizon, the blowout preventer used in Pennsylvania by contractor C.C. Forbes had been tested shortly before the blowout occurred.
"[The BOP in Pennsylvania] was supposedly tested the morning before the accident," said Pennsylvania Dept. of Environmental Protection spokesman Tom Rathbun. He said he didn't know which company had manufactured that particular BOP, and that the cause of the accident was under investigation.
Hard data about the reliability of blowout preventers is hard to come by. But back in 2002, West Engineering conducted a test of seven BOPs "at the most demanding conditions to be expected." Five were successful in sealing the pipes, but two failed.
The study concluded that the data "paints a grim picture of the probability of success."
Still, BOP failures are relatively rare, considering how many of the machines there are. The biggest manufacturer of them, Cameron International (CAM, Fortune 500), made the Deepwater's BOPs. The outfit has more than 2,500 BOPs in operation worldwide, including 400 offshore, according to Congressional testimony from Cameron Chief Executive Jack Moore. Moore said in his testimony that the Deepwater's BOPs were built in 2001, and that they typically last 20 to 30 years "if properly maintained and used in the environment in which they are designed for."
Cameron claims about 90% of the market for BOPs, estimated to be worth about $1.5 billion according to Richard Spears, vice president for oil market research company Spears & Associates. Competitors include National Oil Well Varco (NOV, Fortune 500) and GE (GE, Fortune 500)-owned Hydril.
There is plenty of speculation as to why the BOPs on the Deepwater Horizon failed to prevent a deadly blowout, and the investigation is ongoing.
But one thing is fairly certain. The Gulf oil spill will probably result in a "re-design" of BOPs, said UT's Bommer, as well as an overhaul of how they're tested and activated.

Salesman Allegedly Repeatedly Shocked at Work
HOUSTON (NEWSRADIO1080 KRLD) - A former car salesman claims he was subjected to extreme workplace bullying.
Bradley Jones, 45, is suing the owners and two other workers at Fred Fincher Motors in Houston. He says they repeatedly ambushed him and shocked him with a stun gun over the past year. His attorney Paul Valdevieso says Jones described the shocks are extremely painful.
"He had to change his underwear a couple of times. The shock, the pain, I mean you can hear him screaming on the videos."
Jeffery Singer, attorney for the dealerships employees calls the device a toy and calls what happened "horseplay."
"I think that everybody the plaintiff complains of probably also received shocks from him."
Singer counters the lawsuit was filed because Jones was fired from the dealership earlier this month. Valdevieso says there is no connection.
The dealership is owned by State Rep. Patricia Harless, R-Spring. According to the lawsuit, her husband, Sam Harless, is general manager. Valdevieso contends Sam Harless gave his workers the device and used his phone to record videos of Jones being shocked. He says another employee posted those videos on Youtube, but they were removed after the suit was filed.
Singer says Patricia Harless was not involved in any way and he adds he doesn't know who owned the device.

WINNIPEG — Catching up is hard to do but it's what the Winnipeg Jets have in front of them as they embark on a four-game road trip.
Now 7-2-0 since Paul Maurice took over as head coach, the Jets are off to Montreal today and play the Habs Sunday at noon CT (CBC, TSN1290).
Then it's off to Carolina, Washington and St. Louis before the team's Olympic breaks begins after the game in Missouri next Saturday afternoon.
The Jets start this trip six points off the pace of the Western Conference's eighth-place team, the Vancouver Canucks, whom they beat 4-3 Friday night at the MTS Centre.
Twenty-six games remain in the regular season.
"It's always an opportunity," said Jets rookie defenceman Jacob Trouba. "Hopefully we'll get a couple of wins and feel good about ourselves going into the break here. Then we can rest up and get ready for a big push after we get back."
Trouba said he's not fixated on the standings.
"A little here or there; you don't really focus on it," he said. "You focus on winning games and let the rest take care of itself."
Now with a record of 26-25-5, Winnipeg remains 12th in the Western Conference with 57 points, six back of the Canucks.
"Our next two opponents, especially, have gone through a tough stretch and Montreal, I'm sure, feels they're just coming out of it and Carolina is rolling," Maurice said after today's pre-departure practice at the MTS Centre. "So we're going to get their best and we should be as confident as we deserve to be with our play.
"They'll be good games. Those next two are going to be very fast, they'll be up and down the ice and you're going to have to be in your lanes and on your routes way before the puck changes possession.
"But we've got speed and size and there are parts of that we can control, too."
Maurice said there will no discouragement at how difficult it is to make up ground in this race.
"It's not our sole reason for being here," the coach said. "The two goals from Day 1 — make the playoffs but it's not going to happen unless we reach our other goal and that's building a foundation of a game we understand and can continue to play.
"So if you don't play (it), you're not making the playoffs anyway. If you do it, and you build it, you have a chance to make the playoffs."
Eric O'Dell was back with the team today after being in Ottawa for a couple of days for the birth of his first child, Isabella.

We have 2 workstations and another 4 PCs. We need each workstation to have independant control of their own workstation plus KVM control of the 4 PCs (Really just keyboard and mouse operation only as there is fixed video displays).
We have looked at Input Director and similar but the issue seems to be with having two workstations providing this.
Prefereably we need a automatic selection using mouse control or serial data to device.
Does anyone have any suggestions?

Diary: Turkey of the week - 20:20/Pepsi Max

Ian Darby feels dirty after watching 20:20's new spot for Pepsi Max:
"This online film isn't only barrel-scrapingly banal, it also manages to be sexist while patronising its young male target audience. Three leering tossers on a sofa watch a model perform a parody of a striptease before driving a monster truck and asking the audience whether they 'want a ride'. A demeaning exercise that lends credence to the argument that advertising is contributing to our society's ills."

Carbon-Nitrogen Ratios
Hi all,
I've just put down a couple (2-3) inches of mulch on the beds. I'm a little concerned that I need to bring up the nitrogen end of things. A friend recommended a cover crop like clover, but it's a little late for that this year.
What do you guys recommend to raise the nitrogen level in the soil?
I'd recommend taking a soil sample and getting it tested before adding fertilizers.
If you want to go organic, I've posted an article called "How to Make Organic Garden Soil".
If you just want to bring up the nitrogen, buy some lawn fertilizer and put that down.
When Should I Fertilize My Lawn?
Be careful the article on fertilizing your lawn states that too much nitrogen at the wrong time will just encourage weed growth. There's a chart on when to fertilize and what ratio to use. I think you might have time to add some fertilize before December.

It's a dream of drug companies and frustrated guys alike (not to mention women): A pill to last longer in bed.
Confidential: Learn the secrets to last longer in bed, from the editors of Men's Health
But there are problems. It's not approved here. And taking it could have an effect on your other head.
The drug is called dapoxetine, and in trials it helped lifelong sufferers of premature ejaculation improve their performance on average from 54 seconds (oops...) to 3.5 minutes (how was that?).
The drug was turned down for approval by the FDA in 2005, but according to Drug Week magazine, Johnson & Johnson plans to file for approval in Canada and "select European countries" (J&J's coy on this one), some as early as the end of the year.
Lasting four times longer is impressive news for the estimated 20 to 30 percent of men suffering from PE. But the drug is really a form of antidepressant, which raises red flags for some people.
For years doctors have prescribed drugs such as Celexa, Zoloft, and Paxil for PE "off-label"—meaning they know they're not intended for PE, but they know they work. So they prescribe them anyway.
The new drug is derived from these selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). But it's been tweaked so it works quicker and fades from your system faster than antidepressants.
Good enough, right?
Maybe not.
"One of the perceived benefits with dapoxetine was that it was a single dosage and had extremely rapid efficacy," says Ian Kerner, Ph.D., a certified clinical sexologist and author of She Comes First: The Thinking Man's Guide to Pleasuring a Woman. "But the FDA didn't seem to be sure that the benefits outweighed the potential side effects."
Those side effects could include the mood-altering properties of other SSRIs. Kerner says that unlike with the potential PE-specific pill, these antidepressants need to be taken for several days before they take effect, bringing with them all the drugs' other effects, such as headache, nausea, rash, insomnia, agitation, and, for some guys, delayed ejaculation.
"I would not take a drug that would alter my mood for better sex," says Tony, a 25-year old editor. "Pharmaceuticals seem last-ditch to me."
Listen to Colleen, a 25-year-old Chicago woman who has dated a PE sufferer: "It's certainly an our problem, because the happiness and fulfillment are not really there in the bedroom. If you're going with the mechanical chemistry solution, though, it's a one-sided solution. I'd be thinking, 'My brain chemistry isn't really worth that.' "

Two degrees is the internationally-agreed target for limiting global warming, and has a long history in climate policy circles. Ambition that we can still achieve it is running high as climate negotiators gather in Lima to lay the groundwork for a potential global deal in 2015.
But against this optimistic backdrop, greenhouse gas emissions have continued to rise. With each passing year the scale of the task looms ever larger. There are very real questions about whether or not the world will be able to stay below the two degree limit.
So what happens if we fail to meet the two degree target? What would it mean to resign ourselves to a post-two degree world? And if not two degrees, then what?
As temperatures rise, so do the risks
Two degrees above pre-industrial temperature has been agreed by countries as an appropriate threshold beyond which climate change risks become unacceptably high.
Global temperature has risen 0.85 degrees Celsius since 1880, according to the latest report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC).
We could be due another couple of tenths on top of that as past emissions take a decade or so to reach their full effect warming. Together with current and expected emissions we're essentially already committed to about one degree of warming, scientists estimate.
Extension of the IPCC's emissions scenarios to 2300. RCP2.6 limits warming to two degrees above pre-industrial levels (blue), RCP4.5 levels out as about three degrees (green). In RCP8.5, temperatures exceed four degrees by 2100 and continue to rise. Meehl et al., (2013)
Read more
Limiting warming to no more than two degrees has become the internationally accepted target for climate policy, as we saw in the first blog of our series of pieces looking at the two degrees limit.
Scientists think the risks of climate change increase as temperatures rise. Two degrees isn't a 'safe' level of climate change, but nor is it a red line with only chaos beyond, as we'll see in part three.
It is a readily understood and useful marker of how we're doing at limiting dangerous climate change that has helped focus minds on the scale of the challenge. It's also what the world's governments have committed to achieving.
So will we manage to limit warming to two degrees above pre-industrial? We take a look at what it will take to stay below two degrees, how things are going so far, how experts say we should proceed and what we'd need to do if we wanted to follow their advice.
1. What we would need to do to stay below two degrees
The world has already warmed by 0.85 degrees celsius above the pre-industrial average and if emissions stay high we're on course for more like three to five degrees by 2100, according to the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reports.
Broadly speaking, however, scientists say it is still theoretically possible to limit warming to two degrees as long as we stick within a fixed carbon budget. This is the total amount we can emit from the beginning of the industrial revolution until the day we stop adding carbon to the atmosphere.
So how big is the budget? It is likely that we'll stay below two degrees as long as we emit no more than about 2,900 billion tonnes of carbon dioxide, the IPCC says. 'Likely' here means a 66 per cent chance.
We've already emitted 1,900 billion tonnes, leaving a remaining budget of just 1,000 billion tonnes that we can emit between now and forever. At current rates we'll use that quota up within 21 years.
If we're willing to accept a higher risk of breaching the two degree target then our budget would be a bit bigger. It might last 33 years at current emissions rates, instead of 21 years.
If the earth is less sensitive to emissions than we thought, that would increase the budget too: we could emit more carbon and still stay below two degrees. But at current rates we would burn through that extra allowance in about a decade.
Whether climate sensitivity is lower than thought or not, we don't have many years left to significantly cut emissions.

Climate change is raising the odds of summer heatwaves in Europe by a factor of 10, according to new research from the Met Office. Over the past 10 to 15 years, the likelihood of a 'very hot' summer has risen - from once every 50 years to once every five years.
As the frequency of heatwaves increases, so do risks to human health. Improving resilience to high temperatures is critical to avoiding deaths caused by extended periods of hot weather, the authors say.
A record heatwave
The summer of 2003 was the hottest ever recorded for central and western Europe, with average temperatures in many countries as much as five degrees higher than usual.
Studies show at least 70,000 people died as a result of the extreme high temperatures. In August alone, France recorded over 15,000 more deaths than expected for that time of year, a 37 per cent rise in the death rate. The same month also saw almost 2,000 extra deaths across England and Wales.
To see how climate change is affecting the likelihood of heatwaves and other extreme events, researchers carry out attribution studies. These identify the fingerprints of human influence on observed changes in temperature, rainfall, and other climate parameters.
The heatwave was the first extreme weather event to be attributed to the human influence on the climate, with research suggesting it was made more than twice as likely because of climate change.
Now a new study, published in Nature Climate Change, finds that recent warming means a similar heatwave is even more likely. The increasing impact of humans on the climate means the risk of 'extremely hot' summers is now ten times greater than when the 2003 European heatwave struck.
Very hot summers every five years
In the new study, Met Office researchers ran their climate models twice: first with both natural climate fluctuations and manmade warming included, and secondly with only natural influences on the climate. They compared the results to see how rising temperatures have altered the odds of heatwaves in Europe.
You can see in the left-hand chart below how close the model simulations that include manmade warming (black line) are to actual recorded summer temperatures (red line). By contrast, modelled summer temperatures from a world where there's no human influence on the climate don't match up well with what scientists are seeing.
This shows summer temperatures can't be explained by natural variability alone, and climate change is playing a role, the paper explains.
UK Met Office
2014 is expected to be the among the hottest years since records began for the UK and the world, and may well prove to be the hottest, according to data from the World Meteorological Organisation (WMO) and the UK Met Office.
Rising temperatures are already contributing to greater risks of extreme weather, scientists warn.
A very warm and wet year for the UK
Met Office figures released today show the mean UK temperature for 2014 is 1.6 degrees Celsius above the long-term average. Currently 2006 is the warmest year since records began in 1910, but 2014 looks likely to replace it.
In England, where temperature records stretch back further, 2014 will be one of the warmest in the 350-year Central England Temperature (CET) record , the longest instrumental record in the world.
This year has also been a very wet one for the UK, and is on course to be the fourth wettest on record. A rainy December could even put 2014 over the annual record of 1337 mm set in 2000, says the Met Office.
A record-breaking year for the world
Globally, it seems likely that 2014 will be the hottest since records began in 1850. Average air temperature over the land and sea surface for 2014 so far is 0.57°C above the 1961-90 average. The previous high of 0.55°C warmer is held jointly by 2005 and 2010.
The ranking of hottest years is shown in the chart below. The red bars show years since the turn of the century, and show that for the most part the hottest years on record have occurred in the past decade or so.

Without a shift in meat and dairy consumption, limiting global temperature rise to two degrees is unlikely, says a new study by Chatham House.
The thinktank surveyed the meat and dairy eating habits of thousands of people in very different parts of the world. The findings show consumers underestimate the contribution of meat and dairy production to climate change, leading to them underestimate the effect that limiting meat and dairy consumption can have on limiting emissions.
The sizeable footprint of meat and dairy
The meat and dairy industry is responsible for 14.5 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions. That's more than is produced by all cars, trains, planes and ships in the world.
Livestock emissions come directly from animals, from digestion and manure, and from transporting animals and producing their feed. Greenhouse gases are also released when forests are cleared to make way for pasture or for cropland in order to grow animal feed.
Livestock sector emissions by source. Chatham House.
China is the biggest consumer of both meat and dairy products, with the US, the EU and Brazil also in the top five. The top ten largest meat and dairy consuming countries are shown in the chart below.

Education does more to reduce deaths from climate-related disasters than economic growth, a new study finds. The researchers say education helps reduce vulnerability to disasters and enhances adaptation to climate change.
Financing adaptation
It's hard to pin down exactly how much money developing countries need to adapt to climate change. But some estimates suggest that it could be as much as $100 billion a year.
Countries have so far pledged $9 billion to the UN Green Climate Fund, which will provide money for adaptation and mitigation in developing countries.
Spending on climate change adaptation tends to be focused on large infrastructure projects, such as flood defences and irrigation systems. But new research, published in Science, suggests that investing in education could be a better way to reduce vulnerability to climate-related disasters.
Improving education reduces disaster deaths
The researchers argue that previous studies have concentrated too heavily on how economic development has reduced vulnerability to disasters such as floods, droughts and landslides.
They point to recent case studies that show improvements in education can give people the skills and knowledge to be better prepared for, and better able to recover from, natural hazards. For example, better-educated people in Cuba, Haiti and the Dominican Republic were faster at responding to hurricane alerts and recuperated more quickly once one had struck.
The researchers compare the influence economic growth and education have on the number of deaths from disasters for 167 countries across the world. They use Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per person as an indicator of economic growth and the number of women completing at least secondary school education as an indicator for education. They then cross-reference these with a database of climate-related disasters.
The results suggest that rising GDP has not reduced the number of deaths from climate-related disasters in the past four decades, while having a greater number of women in education has.
Better awareness of risk
So how does education reduce vulnerability to climate-related disasters? In an accompanying press release, co-author Dr Raya Muttarak explains:
"Education directly improves knowledge, the ability to understand and process information, and risk perception. It also indirectly enhances socioeconomic status and social capital. These are qualities and skills useful for surviving and coping with disasters."
Educated people have a better awareness of risk, the authors argue, and it gives them the knowledge and skills to adapt flexibly.
This is important because while scientists can make long-term projections of climate change, year-to-year weather variations mean they can't say exactly when a disaster will hit and how severe it will be. So a flexible approach to adaptation gives people and communities more capacity to cope when a disaster occurs.
Projecting future disaster deaths
When the researchers run simulations of future climate-related disasters, they find a similar pattern: improved education significantly reduces the number of deaths from disasters.
The results are shown in the graph below. The researchers use two pathways of how global education might change in the future: rapid expansion (red lines) and limited expansion (blue lines), which indicate, respectively, either substantial or minimal investment in education around the world.
The study models each education pathway against three scenarios of future change in climate-related disasters: no change (solid line), a 10 per cent increase (dashed line) and a 20 per cent increase (dotted line).
You can see that for each scenario of climate-related disasters, the improved education pathway results in fewer deaths.
The results suggest how "education is key in reducing disaster fatalities and enhancing adaptive capacity," says lead author Professor Wolfgang Lutz in the press release.

The risk of heatwaves hitting the UK will increase ten-fold by 2100 if we don't cut greenhouse gas emissions, according to a new study of how climate change will affect extreme weather. The UK will also be more at risk from flooding and drought says the new report, published by the Royal Society.
But the report also finds there are ways to prepare ourselves for what's to come, with a mix of large-scale engineering and natural measures to adapt to climate change making it possible to manage some climate risks.
Rising risks
The study uses climate models to estimate how the frequency of floods, droughts and heatwaves will change worldwide by the end of the century. It assumes population rises to around nine billion globally by 2100, and overlays projections of population growth to map where in the world the most people will be at risk from extreme weather.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, places with high populations tend to have more people at risk from climate extremes. For the UK, the combined effects of climate and population changes will increase the risk of exposure to heatwaves by a factor of more than 10 by the end of the century, the report says.
If we don't cut emissions, the risk of exposure to floods in the UK will increase four and a half times by the end of the century, and the risk of drought three times.
The risks posed by heatwaves grow particularly rapidly because older people who are more at risk from extreme heat will make up a larger chunk of global population by the end of the century, the report says.
The study produced maps which show how exposure to extreme weather will change. The areas of dark red show the greatest increase in people exposed to risk - in India, southeast Asia, parts of central Africa and western Europe.
The Pacific weather phenomenon known as El Niño has attracted a lot of attention this year as forecasters have puzzled over its 'will it or won't it' behaviour.
In May, scientists were confidently predicting a 90 per cent chance of an El Niño materialising by the end of the year. But it's proved elusive, with the odds of even a weak event dropping to 58 per cent earlier this month.
El Niño brings extreme rainfall to some parts of the world and drought to others. So predicting when one will make an appearance and how big the effects will be is important.
A new study just published in Nature uses a diverse array of different data sources, from corals to computer modelling, to unravel what's been driving changes in El Niño over the past 21,000 years.
Pinning down this enigmatic phenomenon is tricky, the study concludes. But there's reason to believe climate change could lead to stronger El Niño's in the future, say the scientists.
El Niño and climate-readiness
Every five years or so, a change in the winds causes a shift to warmer than normal ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean - a phenomena known as El Niño.
Together, El Niño and its cooler counterpart La Niña are known as the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Cycling between the two phases is responsible for much of the variation we see in global climate from one year to the next.
Knowing if and how climate change will affect El Niño and La Niña is an important scientific question, says Professor Kim Cobb, co-author on today's paper. She told us recently:
"Preparing for large swings in temperature and rainfall is critical to adaptation strategies, especially if such variability will increase in the future."
In theory, human-caused warming could increase the strength of ENSO events, Cobb continues:
"It is important to remember that climate change is much more than "global warming" … Because ENSO involves feedbacks between the wind strength, ocean temperature, and circulation, a change in any related climate parameter would arguably have some effect on ENSO strength".

New research sees scientists using remote-controlled submarines to create 3D maps of Antarctic sea ice. And the results suggest sea ice is thicker than previously thought.
The area covered by Antarctic sea ice appears to be slightly growing each year, the reasons for which are proving hard to pin down. Today's research adds another dimension to unravelling the complex goings-on around the South Pole.
Measuring ice thickness isn't easy
Scientists have been monitoring changes at Earth's poles for decades now. But the harsh conditions of the Antarctic make it difficult to get good measurements of the sea ice that surrounds the vast continent.
How and why Antarctic sea ice thickness is changing "remains one of the great unknowns in the climate system," says Dr Ted Maksym of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI) in Massachusetts.
While satellites are very good at measuring the extent, or area, of sea ice covering the ocean, they struggle when it comes to ice thickness. Satellite measurements can't distinguish between ice and the snow lying on top of it, which makes it harder for scientists get accurate readings of its true depth.
Scientists can also make estimates of thickness from visual observations or by drilling into the ice itself. But these approaches are hampered by thick sea ice during winter and spring, which prevents ships from accessing parts of the Antarctic coast.
To overcome these limitations, Dr Maksym and his colleagues deployed 'Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs)', which are specially-designed unmanned submarines that measure ice thickness to within 10 centimetres.
The data from these submarines, published in Nature Geoscience, suggests that Antarctic sea ice is thicker than previously thought.
Lifting the world's poorest out of extreme poverty may become impossible because of climate change, according to the World Bank's new Turn Down the Heat report.
It looks at the consequences of warming in three regions: the Middle East and North Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and eastern Europe and central Asia. The World Bank says these areas are already feeling the effects of 0.8 degrees of warming above pre-industrial temperatures.
If warming reaches four degrees by the end of the century, "unprecedented" heatwaves could affect the large majority of the land area of the Middle East, North Africa and Latin America in the coming decades. This new climate normal could cut crop yields by up to 70 per cent while increasing flood risks by a third in some regions and pushing up the incidence of drought by a fifth in others.
The shocks and stresses to come could undermine poverty reduction, push new groups into poverty, lead to population migrations and even increase the risk of conflict, the report says.
Poverty reduction
World Bank president Jim Yong Kim writes in a foreword to the report:
"Ending poverty, increasing global prosperity and reducing global inequality, already difficult, will be much harder with two degrees of warming, but at four degrees there is serious doubt whether these goals can be achieved at all."
Today, 1.2 of the world's 7 billion people live in extreme poverty.
Unfortunately the World Bank says some of the negative impacts of climate change may now be unavoidable because the world is "locked into" warming of close to 1.5 degrees above pre-industrial levels. Even very ambitious attempts to limit emissions cannot change this.
But averting the worst projected climate impacts of a four degrees world remains technically, economically and politically feasible if global leaders are prepared to take tough choices now, Kim says.
Regional analysis
The report was prepared for the World Bank by the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research and Climate Analytics, a Potsdam-based climate NGO and follows similar reports published in 2012 and 2013.
We've taken a look at the 300-page report's detailed findings for the Middle East, Latin America and Europe and central Asia, to see what challenges and changes a climate-changed future might hold.
