More than 400 students from 10 schools traveled to Annapolis, Md. to compete in the 2015 Patriot League Indoor Track and Field Championship. Among those who made the trip to see the fierce competition at the U.S. Naval Academy was injured service member Chyrece Campbell. The crowd roared with applause during the award ceremony as Chyrece presented each beaming champion with their trophies and medals.
Upon arrival at the championship, Chryece and her family toured the facility and enjoyed hospitality access. Just after taking the stage to take part in the awards presentation, Chyrece, who currently serves in the Air Force, was recognized for her service and the audience rose to their feet in deep appreciation.
Several states away, a mix of cheers and loud splashes filled Bucknell University's Kinney Natatorium during the 2015 Patriot League Swimming and Diving Championship. The conference treated Brendon Smith and his family to an experience including a meet and greet with participating teams, a facility tour, and hospitality. During intermission, Brendon, who served in the Marine Corps until 2003, stood at the center of the aquatic center with his family as the crowd showed their overwhelming support. At the conclusion of the touching moment of recognition, Brendon's wife wiped a tear from her eye.
"The Patriot League and our member schools are honored to be able to recognize our veterans and Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) at our conference championships. The student-athletes, coaches, and spectators respect the dedication and commitment of our veterans, and we are excited that we were able to acknowledge them at two of our showcase events. We look forward to additional opportunities to host injured service members at future Patriot League championships," said Richard Wanninger, senior associate executive director at the Patriot League.
Each of these conference-level experiences were created to aid in the healing process and left an everlasting imprint on those who attended.
Inviting an injured service member to take part in conference tournaments and championships can make a significant impact on their recovery. Contact Amara Betoney at email@example.com or Sarah Taylor at email@example.com to learn more!-----------------------------------------------------------------------For many veterans, one of the hardest battles is the transition back into civilian life after leaving the military. Injured service members often feel lost and alone without the camaraderie they shared with their brothers and sisters in arms. Readjusting to the world they left behind to serve their country can be difficult. By integrating veterans into game day activities, colleges and universities have made hundreds of Wounded Warrior Project® injured service members a part of their team and furthered their journey to recovery.
American University frequently invites veterans to their events and recently hosted an injured service member at their wrestling match against the University of Oklahoma. Just before the start of the match, all eyes locked on American's honorary captain, Baren Berg, who stood tall at the center of the mat. Between the captains of the two universities, Baren shook hands with both young men and with a flick of his thumb, sent a coin flying through the air. Once it dropped to the mat, he declared the winner of the toss as the crowd cheered him on.
Baren returned to the mat to be recognized for his service during a halftime ceremony, greeted by American University Director of Athletics and Recreation, Brigadier General William Walker, United States Air Force, Retired. Fans and spectators showed their appreciation once again as the two men shared a special moment bonded by their military service.

Basketball season is in full swing and as teams look ahead to March Madness, each game becomes more important. Players are laser-focused on helping their team win and improving their statistics, but it's not just the young men and women on the court who are racking up assists. Sometimes injured service members need a helping hand as they struggle to adjust to life outside of the military. Athletics departments are continuing to host Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) veterans at their events, providing them an "assist" as they try to regain a sense of normalcy.
The sound of feet stomping thundered through Statesmen Hall as fans packed the seats and awaited the arrival of the Richard Bland College Statesmen on the court. Prior to tip-off, an injured service member was welcomed onto the polished wood and stood center court while being recognized for their service. While the crowd paid their respects to the flag during the singing of The Star Spangled Banner, they also showed their appreciation to the brave men and women who have fought for their country in part by cheers and salutes.
After the team secured the win in a nail-biter match up, the WWP wounded veteran and their guests joined the Richard Bland players and coaches for a post-game reception. While enjoying refreshments provided by the school, the group engaged with the team. Though the Statesmen had pulled off a great victory, the real hero was the injured service member whose sacrifices were honored that night.

Making Veterans Part of Your Team
When veterans are transitioning back into civilian life after years of service, they sometimes struggle to identify with those around them and feel isolated, unable to connect at home. To assist the brave men and women who fought for our country, colleges and universities across the nation are inviting Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) injured veterans to be a part of their team for a day.
While the cool winds of a New York fall blew through the air, thousands of fans watched as the Syracuse University football team burst through the tunnel. Cleats pounded the ground and energy coursed through the players' bodies as they took the field, accompanied by a new teammate, a WWP veteran. As the applause roared and echoed throughout the stadium, the injured service member stood tall with the new companions he'd met only just before. Prior to the game, approximately 200 WWP veterans and guests were treated to a large group tailgate where they feasted upon a spread of food and beverages.As the rest of the group headed to the stands, one veteran, who served as Syracuse's honorary teammate, made his way toward the locker room, entering the massive football complex, which features displays boasting Syracuse's greatest players, coaches, and wins. After the team erupted into the stadium, the crowd showed their appreciation in the form of cheers and whistles as the WWP veterans were recognized and the honorary teammate was presented with an autographed football. The injured service members left Carrier Field that day forever a part of the Syracuse team and family.

Thank Our Veterans
Veterans Day is a time to honor those who serve in the U.S. Armed Forces. Collegiate athletics departments are stepping up to the plate this month to celebrate our nation's heroes. Many universities and colleges are hosting military appreciation events in November. More than 50 of these events will empower Wounded Warrior Project® injured veterans, providing them with once-in-a-lifetime experiences created not only to honor them, but to also help ease their transition into civilian life.
Many schools are paying tribute to those who've sacrificed for our freedoms by recognizing veterans during military themed events. The American flag ruffled in the breeze while being carried onto the field by wounded service members and their families at Boston College's Military Appreciation Day game. The National Anthem echoed through the stadium as fans stood with hands over hearts to honor our country and the families on-field who've sacrificed for our freedoms.The veterans and their families filled up on tasty tailgate treats before walking out onto the fresh-cut grass to enjoy a sideline view of the pregame action. Players whizzed by as the teams warmed up, coaches marched back and forth with whistles in hand, and in the center of the organized chaos, the service members took it all in. After the National Anthem, three veterans named as honorary captains looked on in excitement as the coin flipped through the air and landed in the referee's hand. Each honorary captain walked tall back to the sideline grinning ear-to-ear, relishing in that special moment.
Thank a veteran and create an event that shines a light on America's veterans. Contact Amara Betoney at email@example.com to learn more!-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Empower Warriors
Many injured veterans undergoing the transition from military to civilian life face difficulties. Sometimes "home" can feel like a foreign country while trying to adjust to their physical and mental injuries. These same men and women, who showed great courage defending our freedom, often feel confused adjusting to their new normal. Across the nation, athletic departments are rising to the occasion to empower wounded veterans with special recognition.
Underneath the bright stadium lights, and a dark evening sky, time stood still for Wounded Warrior Project® (WWP) wounded service member Hunter Alarcon. Fans adorned in scarlet were on their feet to express gratitude for his service and sacrifice during the "Heroes Among Us" promotion on Sept. 13, sponsored by Johnson & Johnson®. Hunter's face lit up on the video board as his name echoed from the speakers and the crowd, cheerleaders, team, and coaches erupted with an outpouring of support and appreciation.
"We all cherish the opportunity to recognize Wounded Warrior Project® veterans and we are grateful to our partners at Johnson & Johnson® for helping to make it possible," said Mitch Brooks, partner services coordinator at Rutgers IMG Sports Marketing, who works tirelessly to provide these experiences at every Rutgers home football game. "Everyone we've ever hosted has been absolutely wonderful and has been so excited to come! I truly love this program and what it does for our wounded service members."
Plan now to provide a once in a lifetime experience to empower those who have had their lives changed while fighting for our freedom. Contact Amara Betoney email@example.com learn more!

Today, many service members return to their communities changed from visible and invisible wounds incurred while protecting our freedom. These changes can make it difficult to readjust to life in the civilian world. Athletics programs offer unique ways to show appreciation for their sacrifice.
Crowds of red and white jumping up and down and a mascot with a hat that enforces the motto "Everything is bigger in Texas" are just a few of the sights Wounded Warrior Project® wounded service member, Brandon Pool, absorbed during Texas Tech's "Operation Giveback sponsored by the Overton Hotel" on Aug. 30. Meeting cheerleaders and holding the "Guns Up" Texas Tech victory sign from the sidelines created lasting memories. The campus-affiliated Overton Hotel provided a night's stay so he could rest easy the night before game day at Jones AT&T Stadium.
"This is Texas Tech, American heroes like Brandon are always welcome!" said Andy Rowdon, assistant athletic director for promotions and fan engagement, whose team was instrumental in creating a day of appreciation for Brandon.Plan now to create a game day experience that empowers and aids in the successful transition of our service members.

Each November 11, Veterans Day, we look to honor and thank all who serve in the United States Armed Forces.
On the 11th of each month, NACDA and the Wounded Warrior Project will partner to salute a wounded warrior, who's life has been impacted by an event held on one of our campuses.

by Gilbert, Martin
Publisher:William Morrow
What a terrible disappointment the twentieth century has been, was Winston Churchills comment in 1922. One world war was over, more than 6 million soldiers had been killed, and four vast empires had been destroyed. A second mass slaughterin which more than 46 million would diewas yet to come, bringing in its wake the arms race, the Cold War, and the nuclear age.
This volume of Martin Gilberts three-volume narrative history of the century charts its first thirty-three years. Opening in the age of horse-drawn travel and colonial wars, Gilbert closes this volume with Roosevelt as the newly elected President of the United States, the inauguration of Adolf Hitler as Chancellor of Germany, and the first of Stalins show trials in the Soviet Union. As well as chronicling the wars, revolutions, and political upheavals, Gilbert tells the story of ordinary men and women in every continent, making them an integral part of the events of which they were sometimes the beneficiaries and often the victims.

Senator 'Disappointed' by Gun Proposal Failure
U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk says he's disappointed that the Senate has rejected expanded background checks for gun purchases.
Kirk was one of four Republicans to vote in favor of the proposal, which failed Wednesday, 56-46. Five Senate Democrats voted against the measure.
Earlier in the day the Illinois senator met with families of victims of last year's Connecticut school shooting. Kirk says he wanted to meet with the families to hear their stories firsthand and learn more about the victims.
Twenty elementary school children and six staff members were killed in the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut. Democratic U.S. Senator Dick Durbin also supported the legislation.

Outbreak is a 1995 American medical disaster film directed by Wolfgang Petersen and very loosely based on Richard Preston's non-fiction book The Hot Zone.[1] The film stars Dustin Hoffman, Rene Russo and Morgan Freeman, and co-stars Cuba Gooding Jr., Kevin Spacey, Donald Sutherland and Patrick Dempsey.
The film focuses on an outbreak of a fictional Ebola-like virus called Motaba in Zaire and later in a small town in the United States. Its primary settings are government disease control centers USAMRIID and the CDC, and the fictional town of Cedar Creek, California. Outbreak's plot speculates how far military and civilian agencies might go to contain the spread of a deadly contagion.
The film was released on March 10, 1995 and proved a box office success. It was nominated for various awards but failed to garner any major award nominations. It also raised various "what-if" scenarios: media outlets began to question what the government would really do in a similar situation and if the CDC has plans in case an outbreak ever does occur.[citation needed] A real-life outbreak of the Ebola virus was occurring in Zaire during the time of the film's release.[2]
Motaba, a fictional virus which causes a deadly fever, is discovered in the African jungle in 1967. To maintain the virus as a viable biological weapon, two U.S. Army officers, Donald McClintock (Donald Sutherland) and William Ford (Morgan Freeman), destroy the camp where it was found after taking blood samples from the dying victims.
In 1995, the virus resurfaces in Zaire. Colonel Sam Daniels (Dustin Hoffman), a USAMRIID virologist, is sent to investigate. He and his crew, Lieutenant Colonel Casey Schuler (Kevin Spacey), and new recruit Major Salt (Cuba Gooding Jr.) gain information about the virus and return to the United States, where Daniels asks his superior, now-Brigadier General William Ford, to put out an alert. Ford knows that the virus is not new, but he tells Daniels it is unlikely to show up. Daniels' ex-wife and former crew-member Roberta Keough (Rene Russo), has left USAMRIID to take the lead role of a similar team at the United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention in Atlanta, Georgia and is convinced by Daniels to recommend an alert from the CDC, but her superior balks as well.
Meanwhile, we learn that the virus arrived via a host animal, a white-headed capuchin monkey, that was smuggled into the United States. James "Jimbo" Scott (Patrick Dempsey), an employee at the Bio-Test animal holding facility, bribed a security guard and took the monkey to Cedar Creek, California, to sell on the black market. During the drive, Jimbo is infected with the virus through facial contact with the monkey's saliva.
Jimbo unsuccessfully tries to sell the monkey to a crooked pet store owner, Rudy Alvarez (Daniel Chodos). Before parting ways, however, the monkey scratches Alvarez and infects him, and shares a banana with another monkey already in the store, infecting that monkey as well. Not able to care for the monkey, Jimbo releases it into the woods. Jimbo starts to show signs of infection while flying to Boston, where he gets off the plane and kisses his girlfriend Alice (Kellie Overbey), infecting her as well just before collapsing. They are both hospitalized. Keough investigates the infections but finds that no one other than Jimbo, his girlfriend or Rudy – all three of whom die of hemorrhagic fever – in the Boston area was infected.
Meanwhile, the technicians at a Cedar Creek hospital run tests on Rudy's blood. But Henry (Leland Hayward III), one of the technicians, accidentally breaks a vial, splattering the contents, infecting and killing him. The virus mutates into a new strain, capable of spreading like flu, and numerous Cedar Creek citizens are exposed to Motaba. Daniels learns of the infection and flies to Cedar Creek alongside Schuler and Salt, against Ford's orders, joining Keough's team.
As Daniels and his team begin a search for the host animal, a state of martial law is declared in Cedar Creek, and the U.S. Army has quarantined the town to contain the outbreak. During their research, Schuler is infected when his suit tears. Keough follows after she accidentally stabs herself with a contaminated needle while collecting samples due to Schuler suddenly convulsing. A mystery serum, E-1101, is introduced to those suffering from Motaba. Daniels soon realizes that the serum is not experimental, but was designed to cure Motaba, and that Ford knew about the virus beforehand. However, the serum does not help the residents of Cedar Creek, who are infected by a mutated strain. Daniels confronts Ford, who admits that he withheld information on the virus due to national security and Motaba's potential to be turned into a biological weapon.
Daniels learns from Ford of Operation Clean Sweep, a plan by the military to bomb the town of Cedar Creek, with approval from the President of the United States. Now-Major General Donald McClintock, Ford's partner at the African camp in 1967, who was responsible for its destruction and the cover-up, plans to use the bombing to cover up the virus's existence. To prevent Daniels from finding a cure, McClintock has him arrested by implicating Daniels as a carrier of the virus. This leads Daniels and Salt to search for the host animal to save the town. Flying a helicopter to the ship that carried the host animal, Daniels obtains a picture of Betsy and broadcasts it on the news. Mrs. Jeffries (Gina Menza) realizes that this is the animal her daughter Kate (Kara Keough) is playing with in their backyard. She calls the station, and the two men arrive at the family's house. Kate coaxes out Betsy, whom Salt tranquilizes. Learning from Daniels that the host animal is captured, Ford delays the bombing.
Flying back, Daniels and Salt are confronted by McClintock, who also came by helicopter. While McClintock's helicopter chases theirs, Daniels has Salt fire two rockets into the trees to trick McClintock into thinking they crashed. Returning to Cedar Creek, Salt mixes Betsy's antibodies with the E-1101 to create an anti-serum in time to save Keough, but not Schuler, who has already succumbed to the virus. Daniels discovers that Operation Clean Sweep is in progress and becomes aware that McClintock will not call off the bombing. He and Salt take it upon themselves to fly in the way of the bomber, commanded by a pilot with the call sign of Sandman One (Maury Sterling), to stop it. With support from Ford, Daniels is able to stay in the way of the plane long enough to convince Sandman One and his co-pilot (Michael Emanuel) that information was withheld from them. Sandman One deliberately detonates the bomb over water instead of the town. Ford, having had enough of McClintock's single-minded obsession, relieves McClintock of command and places him under arrest for withholding information from the President. Daniels and Keough reconcile, and the remaining residents of the town are successfully cured.
Scenes in "Cedar Creek" were filmed in Ferndale, California where tanks and helicopters became a common feature of daily life during the nearly two months of filming.[3] Other locations used were Dugway Proving Ground and Kauai.[4]
Box office[edit]
The film opened at #1 upon its opening weekend with $13,420,387[5] and spent three weeks on top of the US box office, before being capsized by Tommy Boy 's release.[6] The film would go on to gross a $67,659,560 domestic total, and with an international $122,200,000, totaled $189,859,560 worldwide.[7] Measuring box office against its $50 million budget, the film is considered a commercial success.[8]
Outbreak received mostly mixed reviews. Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reports that 59% of 44 film critics have given the film a positive review, with a rating average of 5.6 out of 10.[9]
Roger Ebert of the Chicago Sun-Times gave the film three and a half out of four stars, calling the premise "one of the great scare stories of our time, the notion that deep in the uncharted rain forests, deadly diseases are lurking, and if they ever escape their jungle homes and enter the human bloodstream, there will be a new plague the likes of which we have never seen."[10] Rita Kempley of the Washington Post also praised the film's story, saying, "Outbreak is an absolute hoot thanks primarily to director Wolfgang Petersen's rabid pacing and the great care he brings to setting up the story and its probability."[11]
David Denby said in New York magazine that the opening scenes were well-done, but "somewhere in the middle ... Outbreak falls off a cliff" and becomes "lamely conventional".[12] Janet Maslin of the New York Times also found the subject matter compelling but the treatment ineffective, observing, "The film's shallowness also contributes to the impression that no problem is too thorny to be solved by movie heroics."[13]

I'm smart, fun, and kind. I'm a flexible and laid-back person who feels comfortable in many social settings and enjoys doing diverse types of things--I love to go to the theatre, but I also love an afternoon floating the river. My professional life is important to me, but I also like to have fun and enjoy life. I like porch-sitting in the sun with a drink, laughing and talking with friends and family. I love to read, write, listen to, and tell stories. I enjoy sports and outdoor fun...I love summer! I'm looking for fun, good conversation, nice and genuine people.

The Neighborhood
There is a nearby convenient store, INDOMARET, on jl Pintu Air 2. Turn left when you exit the condo complex, it is the side street on the left wing of the complex.
In the evening, try our nearby Pecenongan street food. Jl Pintu Air 2 will lead you to jl Pecenongan. Rawon Nguling at Pecenongan opens for lunch and dinner, try the beef rawon soup with salted duck egg. One salted duck egg is good for two bowls of rawon. Most of the street stalls open after sunset. Do not miss out Pondok Laguna's fried 'flying' gurame at jl Batu Tulis. Try their dessert, my must-have, es merah delima. Next door Ikan Bakar Cianjur is worth a try too.
There are more local food outlets on Jl Juanda raya. Happy Day is a family restaurant. If you are keen to try Javanese food, try Soto Madura (beef soto) at Juanda raya no.16. They are within walking distance.

Hana was very helpful to all queries that were posted to her and was always checking in to see if we needed additional help. Her food recommendations were spot on and there was even superb Nasi Goreng just along the road near her apartment! (Its on the right from her place) Definitely a good place to stay and I will be back when I visit my friend again!
Hi! Hana TQ for letting me and my sis to stay at ur condo. Its a very comfort and everything need to have while travel is well taking care of by u at the condo. TQVM =)
The place is as per describe. The security is very good. The amenities are generous. From time to time Hanna checked whether everything was ok. When I gave feedback during my stay, that it would be better to have a microwave. She straight away arranged it and delivered it on the same day. Very great services.
Just perfect. Exactly as described. Thanks x
Hanna's apartment was exactly what we needed for our stay in Jakarta for a family of 5. Hanna was a great host, checking in before our trip, during, and after. Our travel dates changed at the last minute and Hanna accommodated the change which was so appreciated. The apartment is comfortable, safe, and all set with all the amenities that you would need in your stay in Jakarta. Would definitely book again!
Apartment was exactly as described, very spacious and clean, was perfect for our group! Hanna made sure that we had everything we needed, and kept in constant communication to make sure we were happy. Location was good, next to the train station, and easy to access most areas in Central Jakarta. Apartment front office staff was very helpful as well.
It was a great experience and despite the hectic city, hanna's place has give us the feel of secure and pleasing in his apartment. I really recommend hanna's appartment for those who wish to come to jakarta. the staff also very friendly. pak mahmud also very experience and help us a lot. I can say he is totally different from other driver in town who intentionally doing things just hoping for profit and tips. The house are very clean, the beds are cosy, everything feels like you are in home. Thanks hanna once again. and you never stop helping us whenever I try to reach you.

When I'm not spending time with my 3 daughters and doing freelance work for a major Indonesian fashion organization, I'm pursuing my passion in hospitality. Nothing beats meeting new people and making them feel at home. Check out my listings, and you might just find your next home away from home!
I'm also into upcycling, producing tote bags and pouches out of post-event banners and fabric remnants! It's been fun and rewarding, loving the creative process of it. Threadapeutic is my upcycling label which is finally launched in Indonesia Fashion Week 2015!

Atomic clocks won't work without electrical power, and would be subject to all the same physical rust and breakdown as other electronic devices over the years.
Indeed. I used to work at the Time and Frequency division at NIST, where they keep the master atomic clocks for the US. They had a big room full of 12-volt car batteries to provide backup power to the clocks in case of a power outage.

We studied the effect of such stereotypes in an experimental market, where subjects were hired to perform an arithmetic task that, on average, both genders perform equally well.

Women currently have a 2:1 advantage in STEM fields
This is nonsense. According to the latest numbers Women get 49% of all bachelors degrees in STEM fields and 40% of doctoral degrees, but if you look at individual disciplines there are very big disparities: Women are 18% of computer science majors, 19% of engineering majors, 38% of geosciences majors, 39% of physical science majors, 42% of math majors, and 58% of agricultural and biological science majors.
Moreover, this report shows that the fraction of women in STEM fields has gone down over the last decade, most sharply in computer science.
But nowhere in this report do we see that women have an overall two-to-one advantage in STEM disciplines.

Just because a fossil looks similar does not mean it hasn't evolved. Most evolution happens on the molecular scale, if you looked at the genomes I guarantee they would be different.
The paper in PNAS discusses this at length. It clearly states that it would be very nice to be able to check DNA, but that defining species in microbes is about phenotypes, not genotypes, and the important thing is that there is no sign of speciation (that is, two separate populations, separated in space, did not diverge.
The morphology-based "concept of hypobradytely does not necessarily imply genomic, biochemical, or physiological identity between modern and fossil taxa," a claim of extreme evolutionary stasis—a lack of speciation over billions of years—would be strengthened not only by discovery of additional fossil communities but by firm evidence of their molecular biology. Although speciation-based evolution occurs at the phenotypic rather than genotypic level of biologicenvironmental interaction, the biomolecules underlying such change are not preserved in the rock record in which such assessment can be based only on indirect proxies and inferences of physiology based on isotopic analyses
However, the article noted, it's possible that this interpretation is wrong and that what they saw was two separate populations that underwent convergent evolution rather than one population that was separated and remained static or that there might have been significant biochemical evolution that did not change the morphology.
Moreover, large-diameter ("giant") sulfur bacteria of differing phylogenetic lineages can exhibit similar morphologies and patterns of behavior suggesting convergent evolution of morphologic "look-alikes" adapted to a same or similar function. Although it remains to be established whether such morphological "mimicry" is exhibited also by the more narrow 10-m-diameter sulfur bacteria described here—the two modern sulfur bacterial taxa of similar dimensions being aerobes rather than anaerobes like the Duck Creek and Turee Creek fossils—it remains conceivable that the marked similarities between the two mid-Precambrian communities and their modern counterparts could be an example of the so-called Volkswagen Syndrome, a lack of change in organismal form that masks the evolution of internal biochemical machinery

You're exaggerating the salaries: Median salaries for tenured Associate Professors is a bit under $70K. Median salaries for tenured Full Professors is a bit under $100K. Not bad, but not the "$100k-200k" that you describe.
Few universities have pensions these days. They mostly have 403(b) retirement plans, which are basically the same as 401(k)s: Faculty contribute their own money and get matching up to some maximum (usually around 5 to 10 percent). How is that unmatched in the private sector?

Climate models may one day mature to something beyond the basket of hypotheses they are now, but none of them have yet been successful in predicting climate data, except where the null hypothesis also predicted that data.
Wrong. Manabe and Wetherald predicted in the 1960s that greenhouse warming would cause the stratosphere to cool when the troposphere warmed, whereas increasing solar intensity (the null hypothesis) would cause both the stratosphere and the troposphere to warm simultaneously.
The observed temperature trends agree with the greenhouse warming predictions and disagree with the brightening sun predictions.
Subsequent modeling work predicted dozens of ways in which the greenhouse warming and brightening sun would produce different patterns (e.g., greenhouse gases would cause nighttime temperatures to warm more than daytime temperatures, whereas increasing the brightness of the sun with no change in the greenhouse effect would cause days to warm more than nights). And today when we look at the patterns of observed warming, they overwhelmingly agree with the greenhouse warming predictions and disagree with the brightening sun predictions.

I notice they leave out the part where it returns to the atmosphere through tree rot.
You can preserve the wood in dry or anaerobic conditions to prevent rot after the tree is harvested, but that would take extra effort and energy.
However, it's not unreasonable to imagine that in 100 years the energy for doing that sort of thing might be available from renewable or nuclear sources.
Also, if you replant a new tree where the old tree stood, the new tree could absorb the CO2 emitted by the old tree's rot. But you would have to understand that the replacement tree is just preserving the sequestration that the older tree accomplished, not adding any new sequestration if the old tree is allowed to rot. Thus, if we were to go on using fossil fuels there would be a tradeoff between the energy and effort required to preserve old wood and the land required to keep expanding the forests.

Emerging Technology: Mobile, Web 2.0 technology will keep changing the game
The 230 people who work at the Palo Alto Research Center, including 170 scientists, are hard at work to solve problems in some of the most complicated emerging technologies, including biomedical products, clean tech, large-area electronics and social cognition.
Center Director Mark Bernstein says the researchers have a common goal of bringing scientific perspectives together to solve problems.
PARC spun off from Xerox about six years ago and now does research for Xerox and other companies, as well as incubating businesses such as SolFocus.
Bernstein spoke with Business Journal reporter Emma Ritch about the state of the emerging technology industry.
Q: What are some of the interesting things being done with search engines?
A: They're creating useful search engines that work in instant time. They have the capability now for distributed computation, which allows what at one time was a very complicated semantic-based algorithm. The basic answer was you could always get your answer, but how much time do you have? Now it's very sophisticated algorithms that are based on semantics but leverage the statistical work so they deliver a very high-performing and very user-friendly technology that understands the meaning of what you are asking instead of looking at the key words in the search terms out on the Web. I think that by the middle of next year you will be able to have a search tool that will be able to be used openly on the Web.
Q: Where is your facility putting the most resources in 2008?
A: If you look at the kinds of projects we were doing 5 years ago and the projects we're doing now, less than half resemble what we were doing before. The new areas -- clean tech and life sciences -- are brand new. If you look at the other areas we have been focused on, they've moved to new areas of application.
Using the Web to be able to create social-based intelligence is an area we've moved to after having been working the last 5 years in working to enhance intelligence analysis for the government. ... Also, we're working on social networks focused on particular areas of community interest.
Q: What other types of emerging technology are being incubated at PARC?
A: We have a 30-year-history in optoelectronics. Over time we have been able to be produce, using different material-sets, different types of lasers: the red lasers, the blue lasers. What has been missing is the green laser, which produces a very high performance illumination systems as well as display systems.
Q: How long will that take?
A: It's a 3-year program in two 18-month phases. The first phase is to produce green laser light. The second phase is to improve the technology such as it has long lifetime and becomes commercializable.
Q: What are the commercial uses for green lasers?
A: There are always chemical processes that have special use for the green wavelengths. In those kinds of applications, both biological and chemical, it's combined with red and blue lasers to produce very high-power illumination sources, and also to use as sources of displays. Combine the red, blue and green together and you get white light. You use white light, or variations of white light, to create special purpose illumination: a focused lamp of those three lasers that would be able to produce a significant amount of light, and be able to illuminate a very large area with very little power. It also has uses in green tech, as well as very sophisticated electronics technology.
Q: What fields are seeing the most competition and innovation?
A: Mobile technology is going to continue to change how we live. One of the areas I think we're going to see growth is more coverage of wireless technology, the introduction of WiMAX, wireless technology that will enable better technology and higher bandwidth. I think once you see the fleshing out of wireless activities, then you have the unique access to technologies. You think we're connected now? You think you have access to a lot of information now? It's really going to change things. It's a very competitive area, and I think you're going to see a lot of activity in the Valley around that.
The other has to do with the continued ability to maintain the growth of computation electronics. To continue Moore's Law, there are going to be a lot of nanotechnologies to be used in processing the growth of more power, more bandwidth, smaller devices, more integration. You'll see nanomaterials play a big part in that.
Q: What about Web 2.0?
A: You'll see more Web technology used for work. I think there are plenty of social networking technologies that we've seen that are available for anyone to use, and net citizens can join a community and create a page on Facebook or MySpace. I've been very interested the use of more modulated technologies. Web 3.0 will be less about the individual and more about people who have shared interests, both people who have interest in socializing but more importantly people who have interests focused on different aspects of work. I think you will see more formal applications that will be provided by corporate infrastructure, like widgets.
Q: What barriers are some of these technologies facing in 2008?
A: There's the H1B Visa problem we face in the Valley. We need technologically advanced workers to move freely around the world. Another barrier the government has is the cost of the Iraqi war, which is visible to anyone working in research. The amount of money that has been taken off the table that had been used to find technologies. Now that money is being used to create technologies that are being hidden from the public. Also the controls on the funding have become much more stringent. You don't see the long-term contracts, and you see options, like one year with an option. It's a challenge to obtain government funding. Also we're going to see challenges in the VC community in 2008. I think we're going to see a flow over of the liquidity market you're seeing now affecting ventures. When they were able to take on more risk, more money flowed in from the venture community.
Q: How has research changed?
A: Corporate research by and large has changed dramatically in the last 15 years, the last 20 years. They're more focused on the end-customer than pure science. They need acquisitions to grow. Companies are startups, then VC funded, then they become attractive for acquisitions. It's harder for a company to go public because of Sarbanes Oxley. The question is: how much progress is going to come from long-term funding of organic growth, and how much is going to come from the venture community, where it's the customer who basically decides what will be successful.
The evolution that's going to unfold is the global aspect. Innovation is going to take place more places than it could 5 years ago. It's not solely coming out of Silicon Valley; or Boston; or Cambridge, England; or Austin, Texas; it's going to come from a lot of different places in the world.
Q: What are some of the most notable developments in emerging tech in 2007?
A: It's been the connection of the Valley to global issues. You've certainly seen it through the politicians trooping through the Valley. Even in local communities you've seen Google step up to issues around energy and sustainability. It's the promise of how Silicon Valley is going to be not just about semiconductors and software, it's going to be about the impossibilities in the world. I think you'll see technologies rise and fall. It's not a bubble of Internet commerce companies that you saw in 2001. You're seeing a lot of companies that are able to grow quickly because of the enhanced modular technologies in 2007. The biggest [development], there's much more awareness of what's important and what's not. Last year, all you heard was about ethanol and corn, and now we know that's all bogus. There's much more discrimination being applied by socially consciousness new ideas. I hope there will continue to be more public discourse, more discrimination that separates good ideas. I think good developments are being made in battery technology, energy storage technologies, and nanotechnologies -- ways to store those technologies when there isn't any sun, or wind, or water. Energy storage will be another really important thing that we're going to start to see.

Treatable Ailments Kill Nearly 10 Million Children Each Year
An estimated 9.7 million children worldwide under the age of 5 die each year from easily preventable or treatable health problems such as pneumonia and diarrhea, says a report released by the U.S.-based charity Save the Children.
Most of the deaths occur in developing nations, and poor children are twice as likely to die as rich children, the Associated Press reported.
Save the Children ranked 146 countries based on well-being for mothers and children. Sweden, Norway and Iceland were at the top of the list, while Nigeria was last. Eight of the 10 bottom-ranked countries were in sub-Saharan Africa, where four out of five mothers are likely to experience the death of a child.
The group said 30 percent of mothers and children in developing countries don't receive basic health interventions, such as prenatal care, skilled assistance during birth, immunizations and treatment for pneumonia and diarrhea, the AP reported.
More than six million of the 9.7 million children's deaths each year could be prevented using existing, low-cost tools and knowledge, Save the Children said.
Restaurant Tobacco Bans May Prevent Teen Smoking
Total cigarette bans in restaurants may help prevent teen smoking, suggests a Massachusetts study that included 2,791 teens, ages 12 to 17, who were followed for four years.
Teens who lived in towns with strict restaurant smoking bans were 40 percent less likely to become regular smokers than teens in towns with no bans or weak bans (smoking allowed in designated areas), the study found.
Overall, about nine percent of the teens became smokers. The rate in towns without bans or with weak bans was 10 percent, compared to eight percent in towns with strict smoking bans, the Associated Press reported.
Along with reducing teens' exposure to smokers, smoking bans send teens the message that smoking is socially unacceptable, said study lead author Dr. Michael Siegel, of Boston University's School of Public Health.
"When kids grow up in an environment where they don't see smoking, they are going to think it's not socially acceptable. If they perceive a lot of other people are smoking, they think it's the norm," Siegel told the AP.
The study is published in the May issue of the journal Archives of Pediatrics & Adolescent Medicine.
Vitamin D Deficiency Linked to Depression Risk in Elderly
Elderly people with low levels of vitamin D may be at increased risk for depression and other mental health disorders, Dutch researchers say.
Of the 1,282 people, ages 65 to 92, in the study, 26 had major depression and 169 had minor depression. Vitamin D levels were 14 percent lower in those with major or minor depression, Agence France-Presse reported.
The researchers also found that low vitamin D levels were associated with increased levels of a hormone secreted by the parathyroid gland. Overactive parathyroid glands are often linked with depression.

Tires aren't too soft and heat up very quickly. Not the best tread life, maybe 5-6,000 miles on the rear but, great for the twisities! Jason - October 26, 2009 (Great Lakes, MI) Stability Cornering Dry Traction Wet Traction Tread life Pirelli Dragon Supercorsa PRO These tires came stock with my 2008 1098, and I loved them the first time around. Since my front tire was still looking quite well, I decided to grab another rear tire to replace the worn one. Being that I have had about a year with the bike now, I have learned to ride it much harder, and I have to say that nothing instilled more confidence in me with the bike than knowing that the tires I have grabbing the tarmac are doing their job, and doing it very well. The tires broke in very quickly, and I got the "Chicken Strips" within the first 100 miles. With mostly highway commuting, with some twisties thrown in for good measure, the tires are holding up very well. Of course not being a dual compound tire, I can see that the center is beginning to square off just a little after 1000 miles, but a good hard day in the mountains or through some farmland rounds it right out again. Ducati made an excellent pairing when they decided to use these tires on their superbikes, and I honestly cannot say anything bad about them, other than the aforementioned tread life, but that was completely understandable and wholly expected by me.
