Lit by a series of multi-colored lanterns, this large living space is divided into several separate areas, and furnished with painted salvaged chairs, a velvet sofa upholstered with mismatched cushions, and a bed covered with a variety of pillows in slightly dissimilar hues. To say that it's colorful would be a drastic understatement. I'd live there in a second, would you?

I love the architecture of the room. I think if you took down the lanterns and added some more white it wouldn't be as overwhelming. I'd live there in the summer.

Not really feeling that place at all.... I like color, but this room isn't coming together. Maybe it's better in the evening with the lantern lights turned on? And even then, I wouldn't like to LIVE there... but it would be good for a party maybe?

rabidmoon 6 years
I really like the sofa a lot, the colour juxtaposed with classic shape is great...and I like the table. But the lanterns ruin it for me, it would make me feel closed in, and I think (for me anyway) part of the pleasure in living in those sort of open industrial spaces would be the lofty ceilings. I much rather see them opened up than brought down with all the "stuff". On a more realistic note, all those lanterns would also be a pain to dust. But yeah, lose all the lanterns, keep the disco ball and let the furniture be the focus instead of all that paper... and it'd be cute for summer.

Publisher's Description
There are many views today on morality, relativity and right and wrong. Dr. Tony Evans refuses to let the voice of God be drowned out amidst the clamor of the crowd.
In the age where people can get a "no-fault" divorce (When is it ever nobody's fault?) believers who claim to live by God's word cannot dodge the issue: we cannot skip it, run from it, or ignore it. God has spoken clearly on this subject and while it is far from easy to address, it must be dealt with. Combining a high view of marriage, compassion, and biblical authority, Tony Evans gives invaluable insight into divorce and remarriage as he explores real-life fears and questions by looking at the issue from God's vantage point, not from our emotional one.

Vector Group (
) makes and sells cigarettes, but it's also increasing its
interest in the real estate business.
Last December, it paid $60 million in cash to up its ownership
of Douglas Elliman Realty, which it says is New York's largest
real estate brokerage, from 50% to 70.59%.
In a presentation in March, company executives told
institutional investors 2013 was a transformational year for the
Besides upping its stake in Elliman, the company has settled
with 4,900 plaintiffs in a class-action smoking lawsuit and has
invested $75 million in real estate holdings.
It also introduced a new brand, Eagle 20s, which targets the
deep discount market.
The company has a history in tobacco that goes back to 1873
with the founding of the Liggett brand. It owns the Liggett, Eve,
Pyramid, USA and other brands. In 2013, 63% of its revenue came
from tobacco, the rest from real estate.
It owns the Elliman real estate firm through its subsidiary,
New Valley, which also owns interests in hotels, office
buildings, condominiums and apartments.
No analyst tracked by Thompson Reuters follows the stock, so
there are no earnings estimates.
In the most recent quarter, 177 mutual funds reported owning
it and 20 are rated A+ or A in IBD's proprietary 36-Month
Performance Rating, which would put them in the top 10% of all
mutual funds.
Earnings in the past two years have risen 7% and 39%, but
sales have declined 4% and 3%.
The five-year annualized EPS growth rate is -1%. It has a
five-year Earnings Stability Factor of 12 on a 0 to 99 scale
where low numbers correspond to stable earnings.
In 1995, it paid a quarterly dividend of 4.3851 cents per
share. Since 2011, it's paid 40 cents a quarter. That works out
to an annualized yield of 7.6%.

NOAA is coordinating new interagency reporting and monitoring efforts that will provide critical information on the location of the marine debris generated by the tsunami. Ships can now report significant at-sea debris sightings and individuals or groups can request shoreline monitoring guides at email@example.com.
Where is it?
Computer models run by NOAA and University of Hawaii researchers show some debris could pass near or wash ashore in the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (in the Papahānaumokuākea Marine National Monument) as early as this winter, approach the West Coast of the United States and Canada in 2013, and circle back to the main Hawaiian Islands in 2014 through 2016.
Researchers caution that models are only predictions based on location of debris when it went into the water, combined with historical ocean currents and wind speeds.
Conditions in the ocean constantly change, and items can sink, break down, and disperse across a huge area. Because it is not known what remains in the water column nor where, scientists can't determine with certainty if any debris will wash ashore.
Worst- and Best-case Scenarios
The worst-case scenario is boats and unmanageable concentrations of other heavy objects could wash ashore in sensitive areas, damage coral reefs, or interfere with navigation in Hawaii and along the U.S. West Coast. Best case? The debris will break up, disperse and eventually degrade, sparing coastal areas.
Debris will not go away completely, even in a best-case scenario. Marine debris is an ongoing problem for Hawaii and West Coast states, where garbage and other harmful items regularly wash up on beaches, reefs and other coastal areas.
What else is NOAA doing?

MasterCard Inc. waged a "mad campaign" to derail caps on card fees, the European Union's financial services commissioner said today as he unveiled plans to slash charges by 6 billion euros ($8 billion) a year.
Debit-card interchange fees for the largest banks fell 45 percent in last year's fourth quarter from 2009 as U.S. caps took effect, according to data compiled by the Federal Reserve.
MasterCard Inc. lost a court challenge seeking to overturn a European Union decision that the company's cross-border card fees violated antitrust rules.
Visa Inc. and MasterCard Inc., the world's biggest payment networks, put any potential settlement of price-fixing litigation by merchants at about $4 billion.

Paul Hillegonds, a veteran lawmaker and businessman, will lead the regional transit authority that was created by the Legislature last year to try to improve public transportation in southeast Michigan, Gov. Rick Snyder announced during his State of the State address Wednesday.
The authority is designed to help better coordinate public transit and will have representatives from several counties in metro Detroit. The leaders of Wayne, Oakland, Macomb and Washtenaw counties each get two appointments to the authority. Detroit Mayor Dave Bing gets one, and Snyder gets to appoint the chairman.
"I couldn't think of anyone better for the job," Snyder said.
Hillegonds has a long and distinguished reputation as someone who can bridge political and partisan divides to come to workable solutions.
He's currently the senior vice president for corporate affairs for DTE Energy. But he also served as the head of Detroit Renaissance, a civic organization dedicated to help lead the revitalization of Detroit.
Hillegonds said he was called about the transit authority position a few weeks ago. "I was surprised. ... I'm very excited about the opportunity," he said. "Great regions have coordinated public transit agencies."
The M-1 Rail project from downtown to the New Center area in Detroit, he said, is not a part of the plan or the authority's purview as of yet.
"There's a master planning procedure we have to go through," he said, "and it would require unanimous support of the board to include rail."
Chairing the board "will be a challenge," he said, "but the good news is that after 30 years, the governor and Legislature have given us the authority," and the counties and City of Detroit are willing to participate.
Hillegonds will keep his day job at DTE. He will be non-voting chairman of the board.
For a Republican lawmaker from Holland, the leadership role in Detroit is a drastic change.
After 24 tries, the Legislature finally approved the authority during the lame duck session in December.
It would coordinate the city and suburban bus service provided by the Detroit Department of Transportation and the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transit (SMART). It also would spearhead the creation of a light-rail line and bus rapid transit system.
The authority would have the ability to seek millages to run public transportation, but each county would have to approve any request before it went on the ballot.

Stephanie Burns is the founder and CEO of Chic CEO - a free resource for female entrepreneurs looking to start a business. You can follow her on Twitter at @StephanieABurns or Chic CEO at @ChicCEO.
Having a web based business, your livelihood is based upon your numbers. Hitting certain milestones in terms of website traffic can affect certain revenue streams. As a reputable company with integrity, it's important to report your numbers accurately to potential advertisers (if that's your revenue stream) so that you can command proper pricing based upon industry standard Cost Per Thousand (CPM).
Frustratingly, big reporting companies like Compete.com, Alexa, Quantcast and the like – are ripping sales from small businesses. Just this week my company lost 2 accounts because Compete.com is reporting our numbers around 95% less than what we actually have. That's a nasty discrepancy – and we're losing money over it.
Turns out we aren't the only ones frustrated by this.
Rand Fishkin, CEO and Co-Founder of SEOmoz.org said, "SEOmoz.org had 13.8mm visits from 6.25mm unique visitors last year (2011). Those numbers are pretty exciting, but what's not exciting is the external perception created by third-parties like Compete, Alexa, Quantcast, Doubleclick and Google Trends for Websites. These sites report massively lower and wrongly trending data – and SEOmoz isn't alone in experiencing this frustration. We're among dozens of sites I've talked to who've gotten emails and comments lamenting our poor growth or crummy year thanks to these horrifically inaccurate services."
TechCrunch reports, "Dear Internet, I thought we've been over this? If you cite Compete or Alexa for anything other than making fun of them, you're officially a moron. How bad is their data? Well, in the case of Compete, if you reversed their chart, then it would be much closer to being correct than it currently is. I seriously wonder if they're tracking anti-visits or some new metaphysical stat I'm not aware of?
TechCrunch will set a new all-time record for traffic this month (both in uniques and pageviews), breaking the previous record — set last month. And that broke the previous record set the month before that. In other words, things are on the up and up. How do I know this? I have the luxury of seeing directly-measured results from both Google Analytics and WordPress.com's own analytics area. Both confirm that Compete.com and Alexa are absolutely worthless when it comes to this type of measurement."
Of course we are extremely frustrated with losing business because a behemoth of a company simply provides bad data – so we called Compete.com to discuss. We tried to get in touch with them for over an hour with no luck. We went to their Facebook page where they posted a picture of them having a donut eating contest - obviously that's super important, so when that was over, we finally got in touch with them. Here's basically how the conversation went:
Chic CEO: I'd like to talk to someone about your reporting. It's extremely inaccurate and I'm losing business. I want to know how you get these numbers. You show our numbers declining, but we are having record growth.
Customer Service: I'm sure you are! I bet your website is great. The way we get our data is through our 2 million volunteers. We monitor their web activity.
Chic CEO: But I have a niche market, it's obviously not being represented within your volunteers.

Icebreaker - technical feedback
Hi guys, I figured posting here could help me get better, first time i'm doing any serious digipaint work with a tablet, second time I color anything, and I really want to improve, so here goes.
My ship concept has already changed, so this is just a technical exercise before I get to working out the final paintings. Exactly why I want comments on what to improve in terms of technique, what tools to use best, etc...
Here' where I am now:
I'm not satisfied with the clouds: no depth and the form is unnatural. Also there is still a lot of work to be done on mainly the snow and ice covering it as, well as details to the ship itself.
Hide this ad by registering as a memberJanuary 18th, 2007 #2
Well...what are you using for reference? I mean this might be obvious to you but I would look at real ships and real clouds and pay attention to what kind of noise is going on irl there...
The biggest thing I notice is the lack of contrast and color depth.

Yeah, reference would be useful. Once you know more about the subject matter, you will have a lot better imaginative works. The same rule applies to us all.
January 29th, 2007 #4
I'm a little confused with where exactly the ship rests in the water. I mean, I know where it should be but at the current state it's almost an illusion.
As for clouds, something I struggle with as well - It's seems here that we are looking at clouds way off in the distance due to their flat 2d quality - clouds on the horizon if you will. If you take a peak at some references (which isn't cheating or even crutches by the way, it's smart ) you will see clouds above and all around, despite their complex and chaotic forms they do follow the same rules of perspective as everything else.

LED art
the point is, that digital cameras go little crazy from these LED lights especially when adjusted lightness from the camera.
It is couse the LEDs have so small nm curve: it is like a needle, when normal light is steady all the way.
When placed two LEDs, blue and red, about 10cm from another: we get this "stereopicture".
You can watch the pictures here even if you dont have facebook account:

+ - Half-petaflop supercomputer deployed in Austin-> 1 1
SethJohnson writes: "Thanks to a $59 million National Science Foundation grant, there's likely to be a new king of the High Performance Computing Top 500 list. The contender is Ranger, a 15,744 Quad-Core AMD Opteron behemoth built by Sun and hosted at the University of Texas. It's peak 504 teraflops processing power will be shared among over 500 researchers working across the even larger TeraGrid system. Although its expected lifespan is just four years, Ranger will provide 500 million processor hours to projects attempting to address societal grand challenges such as global climate change, water resource management, new energy sources, natural disasters, new materials and manufacturing processes, tissue and organ engineering, patient-specific medical therapies, and drug design."

Pensions auto-enrolment: what does this mean for businesses?
By Clare Gilroy-Scott
Wide-ranging pension reforms were introduced by the Pensions Act 2008 and came into force on 30 June 2012. All UK employers will be required to auto-enrol eligible workers into a pension scheme and make mandatory contributions, in a process staged over several years.
The process is not a simple one, as evidenced by the 12 guidance notes produced by the Pensions Regulator. Furthermore, the guidance notes are aimed at pensions professionals rather than the employing business. So what does the new system mean for you, as an employer? The following is a broad outline of the requirements.
The new duties will apply to your business from a 'staging date' assigned by the DWP, and this will depend upon the size of your PAYE scheme on 1 April 2012. If you operate more than one PAYE scheme, your staging date will be determined by your largest PAYE scheme on that date. For example, you are likely to have two PAYE schemes if you are an employment business supplying PAYE temps to clients, and your temp payroll scheme may be larger than the PAYE scheme of your own employees…

i did however eat a bunch of bacon along the way
mama to 9 year old h 3 year old z and brand spanking new baby m
I am CRAVING pizza. OMG, what I wouldn't give for a steaming hot slice of pepperoni and mushroom pizza. My ILs are coming for a visit on Friday, and they are taking us out for pizza. But, seriously, I saw a commercial for Totino's pizza rolls (which I've never had!), and I told DH I needed them RIGHT NOW. He didn't go and get them, which is for the best. But, man, I will be dreaming of pizza until Friday. I think as long as there's a ton of cheese on it, I can probably do with putting whatever else on. So, I'll probably pile on the veggies.
I keep alternating between a sweet tooth and salt craving. Some days, all I want are salty peanuts, but then today all I wanted was strawberry poptarts.
I've been craving hamburgers, and not the fast food kind but a really good restaurant hamburger. One day two weeks ago I HAD to have Pasta Alfredo. It was wonderful, but I couldn't eat it again, and my MIL ate the leftovers for me.
but once i start craving it, i have to eat it and alot of it cause i will acually be able to keep it down, but if i eat something i am not craving it comes right back up.
but right now i want DILL pickles, and subway. i had a tuna subway for lunch that was yummmmmmy, but now i must have turkey with lots of pickles, tomorrow going to the store to buy a gallon jar of dill pickles.

Raw tomatoes make me sick, most veggies make me sick. I only like raw carrots and some lettuce salad. I really love cheese right now. Cream cheese is YUMMY!
I gave up on my "candida diet" a few weeks ago and felt much better after that. I still am really nauseous but I don't feel like I'm starving to death all the time now. I don't recommend that diet after doing some research deeper into it. Eating healthy foods and trying to balance them is best but I'll worry more about balance when I'm in my second trimester. For now, I'm happy when I can find something that doesn't make me feel totally gross.

If I had some thick cut, nitrate free non fatty pepper bacon.. OMG, That would be even better then the veggie pepperoni. I havent had bacon in ages and it sounds good. I just dont like cooking it because it smells up the whole house. I guess I could do it outside on the grill burner though
Mmm a big crusty Bacon and tomato sandwich with basil aioli...
Im also really craving Thai iced tea with coconut milk instead of cream.
Ive been craving chicken noodle soup and eating on a big pot I made for the last couple days...
Ive also been craving one of my mom's only dishes she ever made that didnt come out of a box - chicken broccoli rice casserole complete with cream of mushroom soup and velveeta
And banana pudding with nilla wafers
As for aversions..
sweet things
red meat
stinky cheeses (I normally love them)

Glad I learned something useful all those years ago
I am starting to feel less sick this week but still no interest in cooking food so have been relying on some beef stew my hubby made over the weekend, baby carrots and hummus, bananas and nuts. But today splurged on a cheeseburger and fries from Five Guys - they just opened and it sounded good. T
I had some yummy Mexican today...chips/salsa and pepsi tasted so great.
Also REALLY wanted fried ice cream...but didn't get some. No clue what I'm making for dinner tonight.
S, mama to L(DD)-12/04, K(DS1)-12/06, C(DS2)-03/09 & B(DS3)-05/11
And I have a huge texture adversion, which I didn't have before. It sucks.
Just an FYI from my MPH days studying food safety, you don't get food poisoning from steak as long as the outside is thoroughly cooked. E-Coli comes from cross contamination with bacteria which adheres to the outside surfaces and does not penetrate the steak. Where you have to be careful is ground meat because there the steak is ground up and the bacteria can be inside the patty so the inside has to be cooked to kill any bacteria.
it was good, and my husband made it PERFECTLY to my specifications, i just started feeling really nauseous about 20 minutes before he got home to cook it and it continued throughout the meal.
oh well. banana pudding sounds really good!
i need to get out of this thread!!!!

News articles on impact of climate change
Mongabay.com news articles on impact of climate change in blog format. Updated regularly.
Food prices to rise due to energy demand, economic trends
(12/03/2007) Income growth, climate change, high energy prices, globalization, and urbanization are converging to drive food prices higher, threatening livelihoods and nutrition of poor people in developing countries, says a new report from the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI).
Climate risks to global agriculture are underestimated
(12/03/2007) Vulnerability of global agricultural to climate change may be underestimated by experts, warns a trio of papers published in week's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The research says that "progressive changes predicted to stem from 1- to 5-degree C temperature rises in coming decades fail to account for seasonal extremes of heat, drought or rain, multiplier effects of spreading diseases or weeds, and other ecological upsets," according to a statement from Columbia University's Earth Institute.
Global warming to boost severe thunderstorms in NYC, Atlanta
(12/03/2007) Global warming could lead to weather conditions that spawn severe thunderstorms in the United States, according to research appearing in the early edition of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Tropics are expanding
(12/03/2007) Climate change has caused a widening of Earth's tropical belt, according to a new study published in a new scientific journal, Nature Geoscience. "Remarkably, the tropics appear to have already expanded -- during only the last few decades of the 20th century -- by at least the same margin as models predict for this century," said the scientists who conducted the research.
Coral reefs with seasonal temperatures may survive climate change
(11/29/2007) Scientists have revealed an important discovery that raises doubts concerning the viability of plans to fertilize the ocean to solve global warming, a projected $100 billion venture.
Could the carbon market save the Amazon rainforest?
(11/29/2007) The global carbon market could play a key role in saving the Amazon from the effects of climate change and economic development, which could otherwise trigger dramatic ecological changes, reports a new paper published in Science. The authors argue that a well-articulated plan, financed by carbon markets, could prevent the worst outcomes for the Amazon forest while generating economic benefits for the region's inhabitants.
Ecomigration: global warming will increase environmental refugees
(11/28/2007) Climate change could spawn the largest-ever migration of environmental refugees due to intensifying droughts, storms and floods, according to a new study published in Human Ecology.
Global warming may provoke evolution
(11/26/2007) Some 80 million years ago, during a period of global warming, a group of relatively immobile salamanders trekked from western North America to the continent that became Asia, report researchers writing in this week's issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science.
Asian countries sign symbolic global warming pact
(11/21/2007) Leaders of 16 Asian countries have signed a "vague" pact on climate change according to Reuters.
Past climate change triggered wars, population decline
(11/21/2007) Long-term climate change may lead to wars and population decline according to a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS). The research looked at the cool period known as the Little Ice Age and found that the number of wars increased, famine occurred and the population declined.
Physicists join fight to save amphibians from extinction
(11/19/2007) Physicists have joined the fight to save amphibians from extinction by using Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) to investigate the properties of frogs skin.
Hurricane Katrina released large amounts of carbon by destroying 320m trees
(11/15/2007) The destruction of 320 million large trees by Hurricane Katrina reduced the capacity of forests in the Southern United States to soak up carbon, reports a new study published in the journal Science. The research shows that hurricanes and other natural disturbances "can affect a landscape's potential as a 'carbon sink' because the dead vegetation then decays, returning carbon to the atmosphere, and because the old vegetation is replaced by smaller, younger plants."
NASA: Arctic Ocean circulation reversal not due to global warming
(11/13/2007) A study published in Geophysical Research Letters shows that weakening of the Arctic Oscillation results from a cyclical process rather than climate change. The results suggest not all the large changes seen in Arctic climate in recent years are a result of long-term trends associated with global warming.
Global warming is melting soft corals
(11/13/2007) Soft corals are "simply melting and wasting away" due to global warming-induced environmental stress says Dr. Hudi Benayahu, head of Tel Aviv University's Porter School of Environmental Studies.
Despite fire risk, more Americans building near forests
(10/29/2007) While much of the world is seeing an urbanization trend, U.S. housing density around national forests is expected to rise by 2050, reports a study from the U.S. Forest Service. The shift could put more people at risk of devastating forest fires and increase pressure on forests and the services they provide.
Global warming puts primates at greater risk
(10/25/2007) 29 percent of the world's primate species are in danger of going extinct warns a new report from the Primate Specialist Group of IUCN's Species Survival Commission (SSC) and the International Primatological Society (IPS).
Mass extinctions happen when temperatures are the warmest
(10/24/2007) Warming temperatures could trigger a mass extinction event, warn scientists writing in the latest issue of Proceedings of the Royal Society B. Comparing ancient records of marine and terrestrial diversity with historical temperature estimates, researchers from the Universities of York and Leeds found a close correlation between Earth climate and extinctions over the past 520 million years: higher extinction rates occur at higher temperatures.
Climate change will impact U.S. economy
(10/16/2007) Climate change will have a significant economic impact on the United States, reports a new study published by researchers from the University of Maryland. The report, The U.S. Economic Impacts of Climate Change and the Costs of Inaction, aggregates and analyzes previous economic research in order to develop a better estimate of the costs of climate change.
Arctic sea ice extent hits record low in September
(10/16/2007) Arctic sea ice reached a record low in September 2007, well below the previous record set in 2005 and substantially below the long-term average, according to an image released by NASA.
Northwest Passage now open for business
(09/15/2007) Melting sea ice has opened the Northwest Passage in the Arctic to navigation, reports the European Space Agency. The clearing allows direct access between the North Pacific and North Atlantic and could eventually be a cheaper shipping route that the Panama Canal.
Arctic sea ice thickness only half of 2001 level
(09/14/2007) Arctic sea is thinning and disappearing, report German researchers. An Alfred-Wegener-Institute for Polar and Marine Research expedition to the North Polar Sea found that large areas of the Arctic sea-ice are only one meter thick this year -- half the thickness found in 2001. The findings support concerns that large expanses of polar ice could soon disppaear from the Arctic during summer months.
Arctic sea ice melts to all-time record low
(09/12/2007) Sea ice cover in the Arctic Ocean is presently 20 percent below its all time lowest extent and may decline further before winter, said scientists from the National Snow and Ice Data Center in Boulder (NSIDC).
Global warming is killing trees in California parks
(09/12/2007) A new study ties a 22 percent increase in mortality among trees in the California Sierra Nevadas to a temperature-driven increase in drought.
Gray whale populations a fraction of historic level
(09/10/2007) The current population of gray whales is one-third to one-fifth of the number found in the Pacific before industrial whaling began in the 19th century, reports a new study based on genetic analysis.
Two-thirds of polar bears at risk of extinction by 2050
(09/07/2007) Two-thirds the world's polar bears could be threatened with extinction by 2050 due to melting sea ice, said U.S. government scientists Friday. U.S. Geological Survey scientists said that the United States (the north coast of Alaska) and Russian would likely lose all of their polar bear populations. The only bears expected to survive would be those in the northern Canadian Arctic islands and the west coast of Greenland. Overall, bears are forecast to lose 42 percent of the Arctic range they need to hunt and breed during summer months.
Environmentalists may use Endangered Species Act to pressure gov't on global warming
(09/07/2007) The addition of elkhorn and staghorn corals to the Endangered Species Act due to threats from climbing ocean temperatures, may be environmentalists' best weapon for levering the U.S. government into action on global warming, writes Mark Clayton of The Christian Science Monitor.
Experts forecast large decline in Arctic sea ice
(09/07/2007) Summer sea ice off Alaska's north coast will likely shrink to nearly half the area it covered in the 1980s by 2050, report scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The loss of ice would have a significant impact on mammals dependent on sea ice, including polar bear and walrus.
Climate change drove human evolution
(09/03/2007) Climate change appears to have been a significant driver of human evolution, report researchers writing in this week's issue of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Science (PNAS).
Global warming to cause more severe thunderstorms, reports NASA
(08/31/2007) Global warming will increase the incidence of severe storms and tornados, report NASA scientists.
Pearl River Delta under Rising Water Threat
(08/30/2007) 1,153 square km (445 square miles) of land surrounding the Pearl River Delta in Guangdong Province, China may be engulfed by rising sea levels by 2050, reports Chinese state media. The cities worst affected will be Guangzhou, capital of Guangdong province, alongside Zhuhai and Foshan if nothing is done to combat the problem soon.
Northwest Passage Nearly Open, reports NASA
(08/28/2007) The fabeled Northwest Passage is nearly open, with implications for trade and natural resource exploitation, reports NASA.
Greenhouse gases made 2006 2nd-warmest year on record for U.S.
(08/28/2007) Greenhouse gases likely accounted for over half of the widespread warmth across the continental United States in 2006, report scientists writing in the September 5th issue of the journal Geophysical Research Letters.
Global warming causes increase in tropical rainfall
(08/27/2007) Climate change appears to be resulting in higher levels of rainfall in the tropics, reports NASA.
U.S. grazing lands at risk due to rising CO2 levels
(08/27/2007) Rising carbon dioxide levels could cause significant changes to open grazing lands and rangelands around the world, reports a study published in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
European blood-sucker falls victim to global warming
(08/26/2007) Europe's only known land leech may be on the brink of extinction due to shifts in climate, report researchers writing in the journal Naturwissenschaften. The findings are significant because they suggest that "human-induced climate change without apparent habitat destruction can lead to the extinction of populations of cold-adapted species that have a low colonization ability," according to the authors.
Could a hurricane hit California?
(08/20/2007) San Diego has been hit by hurricanes in the past and could be affected by such storms in the future according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). While a hurricane in San Diego would likely produce significantly less damage than Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans, it could still exact a high cost to Southern California especially if the region was caught off guard.
Arctic sea ice shrinks to record low in 2007
(08/15/2007) Arctic sea ice has shrunk to a record low according the Japan Aerospace Exploration agency.
Climate change reducing Lake Tahoe's water clarity
(08/15/2007) Lake Tahoe in Northern California is losing is characteristic water clarity due to pollution and climate change, reports a new study by the University of California at Davis.
Global warming to stunt growth of rainforest trees
(08/12/2007) Global warming could reduce the growth rates of rainforest trees by 50 percent, reported research presented last week at the annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America in San Jose, California by Ken Feeley of Harvard University's Arnold Arboretum in Boston.
Climate change claims a snail
(08/12/2007) The Aldabra banded snail (Rachistia aldabrae), a rare and poorly known species found only on Aldabra atoll in the Indian Ocean, has apparently gone extinct due to declining rainfall in its niche habitat. While some may question lamenting the loss of a lowly algae-feeding gastropod on some unheard of chain of tropical islands, its unheralded passing is nevertheless important for the simple reason that Rachistia aldabrae may be a pioneer. As climate change increasingly brings local and regional shifts in precipitation and temperature, other species are expected to follow in its path.
European heat waves double in length since 1880
(08/11/2007) The most accurate measures of European daily temperatures ever indicate that the length of heat waves on the continent has doubled and the frequency of extremely hot days has nearly tripled in the past century. The new data shows that many previous assessments of daily summer temperature change underestimated heat wave events in western Europe by approximately 30 percent.
U.S. government weather agency cuts hurricane outlook
(08/10/2007) The U.S. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on Thursday reduced its forecast for the number of tropical storms and hurricanes expected during the 2007 Atlantic season. NOAA said it now expected between 13 and 16 named storms, with seven to nine becoming hurricanes and three to five of them classified as "major" hurricanes (categories 3, 4, or 5).
Floating sea ice shrinks in the Arctic
(08/10/2007) By one estimate, the extent of floating sea ice in the Arctic has shrunk more than in any summer ever recorded, reports the New York Times.
Melting permafrost affects greenhouse gas emissions
(08/10/2007) Permafrost -- the perpetually frozen foundation of the north -- isn't so permanent anymore, and scientists are scrambling to understand the pros and cons when terra firma goes soft.
Floods affect 500 million people per year, will worsen with warming
(08/10/2007) Floods affect 500 million people a year and cause billions of dollars in damage, said U.N. officials Thursday.
Global warming will slow, then accelerate reports ground-breaking model
(08/09/2007) Global warming will slow during the next few years but then accelerate with at least half of the years after 2009 warmer than 1998, the warmest year on record, reports a new study that is the first to incorporate information about the actual state of the ocean and the atmosphere, rather than the approximate ones most models use. The research, published by a team of scientists from the Hadley Center in the United Kingdom, appears in the current issue of the journal Science.
Coral reefs declining faster than rainforests
(08/08/2007) Coral reefs in the Pacific Ocean are dying faster than previously thought due to costal development, climate change, and disease, reports a study published Wednesday in the online journal PLoS One. Nearly 600 square miles of reef have disappeared per year since the late 1960s, a rate twice that of tropical rainforest loss.
Frog killing diseases worse than thought in California
(08/06/2007) The deadly fungal disease that is killing amphibians worldwide can likely be spread by sexual reproduction reports a new study published in the early online edition of the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The findings suggest that protecting frogs and other amphibians from the pathogen will be more complicated than previously believed.
2007 hurricane season downgraded, questions over climate role remain
(08/06/2007) Hurricane researcher William Gray from Colorado State University cut his 2007 hurricane season outlook, saying there will likely be fewer storms than previously projected due to weak La Niña conditions and more atmospheric dust from Africa.
Las Vegas has gotten hotter
(07/25/2007) Las Vegas and the rest of Nevada has heated up over the past 30 years, but it's not the entertainment industry that is responsible. A new study by the U.S. Public Interest Research Group reports that, as a state, Nevada has seen one of the largest increases in average temperature over the last three decades.
