Even though they are behind bars, the parents will retain full custodial rights to their children, and will therefore be able to made decisions about their care, said Jane Spinak, a professor of law at Columbia University School of Law in New York.
The two girls are with child protective services while authorities reportedly vet the guardians their parents have designated for them.
Those children will undoubtedly have a hard time handling this trauma.
"Even if the child ultimately ends up being able to go home to the parent or relative of close friend, it's still traumatic to see this happen to the parents," Spinak told "Good Morning America."
ABC New's Jason Ryan, Megan Chuchmach, Richard Esposito and Matthew Mosk contributed to this report.

Public Administration
Public Administration can be considered both an occupation and an academic field of study. The Public Administration program at Franklin University is designed to help individuals gain employment as administrators, managers, and leaders in government and nonprofit organizations. Public Administration can be split into two career pathways:
1. Government (or Public) Agencies, which typically consist of positions which one does not have to be elected to
2. Nonprofit Organizations
Non-Profit Information Tip
Non-Profit (or Not-for-Profit) organizations are not required to disclose information, such as financial and personnel documents. By law, they are not held to the same requirements as a For profit entity is. Therefore, there is often less documentation available to the public.
Despite the fact that these organizations do not have the same disclosure requirements, many still publish annual reports and other documentation on their organization's activities. The best sources to find such information is to go to the organization's website or search for them in a database like GuideStar.

Welcome back Matt Gilroy to the New York Rangers organization. Recognizing that they are (very) thin on defense, CT GM Jim Schoenfeld turned to a familiar face by signing the former Ranger defenseman (per Larry Brooks). Matt Gilroy has signed AHL contract with Whale. Prodigal free agent D presumably will sign with Rangers when lockout ends. What Brooks adds there is an interesting little tidbit, as the Rangers were short on defensive depth last season. Remember that Gilroy was a free agent when the lockout began, which made him free to sign with any AHL club. Gilroy will remain with Connecticut for the duration of the lockout, and as Brooks mentions, might be up with the Rangers once the lockout is over. In two seasons with the Rangers, Gilroy contributed 7 goals and 19 assists in 127 games before signing with the Tampa Bay Lightning for the 2011-2012 season. That year, Gilroy finished with a line of 3-17-20 in 67 games with Tampa Bay and the Ottawa Senators. Tweet

Charles Gardner exits the Leighton Criminal Courthouse in Chicago following the sentencing of William Balfour. William Balfour, convicted of killing Oscar-winner Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew, was sentenced to 3 life sentences. Gardner, 48, testified he caught Balfour in the act of stealing his SUV in November 1998 and jumped onto the luggage rack, touching off a wild police chase through several South Side neighborhoods and down the Dan Ryan Expressway as Balfour tried to shake him off the roof.

Greetings — here's a few news tidbits:
After a short Winter hiatus, Hmfo: A Hall & Oates Tribute and Start Making Sense: A Tribute to Talking Heads, return this weekend. Hmfo will be at Havana in New Hope on Friday, Feb. 27 and Start Making Sense will be at Dante's Bar in Frostburg, MD on Saturday.
My original song, Illuminated (you can find it on the music player to the right), will be featured on the Richie Allen Show in the UK this coming Wednesday, March 4. You can listen here: http://www.fabradiointernational.com/
The time is 8-10pm in the UK and 3-5pm in the US (East Coast). Richie's show is tied in with one of my favorite public figures – David Icke. His son Gareth, a great singer/songwriter, will be hosting the music portion of the show. I'm very excited about this as the show features a lot of activists/journalists/academics from around the world who are ignored by mainstream media. Check it out!!
My newest yoga/ambient album, Dreaming of Being: Volume III, is now available. It's a perfect complement to your existing yoga/mediation/healing arts practice.
Additionally, I am currently working on a full-length album of my original music which will hopefully be completed this Fall. As some of you may know, this music is not like my Yoga music. It is highly-charged political/humanist commentary supplemented by grooving funk/r&b rhythms — all with a positive spin (mostly).
Anyway, hope to see or hear from you soon. I will be doing some upcoming long-distance travel including trips to Florida and Canada, but also will have a few local shows to catch. Stay tuned to the calendar or, better yet, sign up for the mailing list for more efficient communication. Thanks for listening.

Boston Celtics Stirring Effort Not Enough in Loss to Miami Heat The Boston Celtics didn't deserve to lose on Monday night and they know it. Even the Miami Heat, a team celebrating their 23-game winning streak, knows they should have their heads down in defeat. Once again though it was turnovers that killed the Celtics off. They had an 18-point lead in the first quarter. They had an eight point lead with eight minutes left in regulation. But a brutal 24 points from 21 turnovers for the Heat kept the game close, and ultimately cost Boston the game. Would things have been different if Kevin Garnett had played? Probably. Someone like that can't fail to have an impact. But his absence once again alerted us to the phenomena that is the Boston Celtics. They play better when they are weaker. Try and figure that one out. Without KG, Paul Pierce was the only surviving member of The Big Three on the court at TD Garden. Watching the first quarter though, it was like traveling back in time to ...

Last year, Elijah Ballard won a state championship almost with one arm.
This year, the Athens Christian junior has put a dislocated elbow far enough behind him to go into the state wrestling tournament as the man to beat.
"I'm feeling pretty good, and that's been a blessing," Ballard said. "I didn't really think about the injury, but when I look back, I kind of wrestled like it. I kind of favored that elbow. It was just one of those subconscious things. But this year, I haven't really worried about it at all."

For example: Nicholas Blurton Jones, of the University of California at Los Angeles, and others have proposed that marriage developed as an extension of men's efforts at mate guarding. If the cost of philandering becomes ludicrously high, the man might be better off trying to claim rights to one woman at a time. Regular sex with a fertile woman is at least likely to yield offspring at comparatively little risk to his life, particularly if sexual access to the woman is formalized through a public ceremony -- a wedding. Looked at from this perspective, one must wonder why an ancestral woman bothered to get married, particularly if she and her female relatives did most of the work of keeping the family fed from year to year. Perhaps, Blurton Jones suggests, to limit the degree to which she was harassed. The cost of chronic male harassment may be too high to bear. Better to agree to a ritualized bond with a male and to benefit from whatever hands-off policy that marriage may bring, than to spend all of her time locked in one sexual dialectic or another.
Thus marriage may have arisen as a multifaceted social pact: between man and woman, between male and male and between the couple and the tribe. It is a reasonable solution to a series of cultural challenges that arose in concert with the expansion of the human neocortex. But its roots may not be what we think they are, nor may our contemporary mating behaviors stem from the pressures of an ancestral environment as it is commonly portrayed, in which a woman needed a mate to help feed and clothe her young. Instead, our ''deep'' feelings about marriage may be more pragmatic, more contextual and, dare I say it, more egalitarian than we give them credit for being.
If marriage is a social compact, a mutual bid between man and woman to contrive a reasonably stable and agreeable microhabitat in a community of shrewd and well-armed members, then we can understand why, despite rhetoric to the contrary, men are as eager to marry as women are. A raft of epidemiological studies have shown that marriage adds more years to the life of a man than it does to that of a woman. Why should that be, if men are so ''naturally'' ill suited to matrimony?
What do women want? None of us can speak for all women, or for more than one woman, really, but we can hazard a mad guess that a desire for emotional parity is widespread and profound. It doesn't go away, although it often hibernates under duress, and it may be perverted by the restrictions of habitat or culture into something that looks like its opposite. The impulse for liberty is congenital. It is the ultimate manifestation of selfishness, which is why we can count on its endurance.
Illustrations: What Men Want; What Women Want. (pg. 49); Theory: Even financially successful women want a rich man. Reality: Women need a man's money because they'll never make as much. (pg. 50); Theory: Women prefer older men with high status. Reality: Maybe its just a matter of space. Who can breathe in the presence of a handsome young ego? (pg. 51); Theory: Women's sex drive is lower than men's. Reality: Laws and customs everywhere aim at curbing the female libido. (pg. 52); Theory: Women go for the virile alpha male.

A radar system comprises an antenna including a reflector having two vertically mounted receiving elements and two receiving channels connected to the elements. The receiving elements form, in cooperation with the reflector, almost coinciding cosecant-square beamed patterns. A measuring circuit connected to the two receiving channels measures the phase difference between the signals received by the receiving elements. A transformation unit connected to the phase measuring circuit converts the phase difference to a signal representative of the elevation angle of the target.
1. A radar system for determining the angle of elevation of a detected target, comprising:
(a) an antenna including a reflector and two vertically mounted receiving elements for cooperating to form almost coinciding, substantially cosecant-squared beam patterns;
(b) two receiving channels electrically-connected to the receiving elements for processing signals from the elements;
(c) a phase measuring circuit electrically-connected to the receiving channels for measuring the phase difference Δφ between signals processed by the channels; and
(d) a transformation unit electrically-connected to the phase measuring circuit for converting the phase difference into a signal representative of the elevation angle ε of the target.
2. A radar system as in claim 1, wherein the phase measuring circuit comprises:
(a) first and second quadrature phase detectors for detecting the signals processed by the receiving channels in two mutually perpendicular components I1, Q1 and I2, Q2 ; and
(b) phase measuring means for determining the phase difference Δφ in accordance with the relationship Δφ=arctan I1 /Q1 -arctan I2 /Q2.
3. A radar system as in claim 2, including a plurality of MTI filter circuits electrically-connected between the phase detectors and the phase measuring means for filtering respective ones of the components I1, Q1, I2, Q2.
4. A radar system as in claim 1, wherein the transformation unit comprises a pulse modulator for converting the phase difference Δφ into a pulse train in which the number of pulses represents the elevation angle ε.
The invention relates to a radar system comprising an antenna including a reflector and two vertically mounted receiving elements for forming almost coinciding, substantially cosecant-squared beam patterns, and two receiving channels connected to the receiving elements.
A radar apparatus having two partially coinciding beams is known from the Dutch patent application No. 76.12575 corresponding to U.S. Pat. No. 4,136,341. In this patent application the reflector in cooperation with a first receiving element is described as forming a substantially cosecant-squared beam pattern, while the reflector in cooperation with a second receiving element forms a beam pattern that substantially coincides with the most elevated part of the substantially cosecant-squared beam pattern. With such an antenna the radar system described in the cited patent application ensures practically clutter-free reception.
The present invention has for its object to utilize the radar system set forth in the opening paragraph for determining the angle of elevation of detected targets. The radar system is characterized in that a phase measuring circuit is connected to the two receiving channels for measuring the phase difference Δφ between the signals received by the two receiving elements, and that a transformation unit is incorporated for converting the measured phase difference Δφ into the elevation angle ε at which the target is situated.
The invention is based on the surprising effect that, with a suitably selected reflector and arrangement of the receiving elements, a clear phase difference Δφ manifests itself over a considerable angle of elevation ε. For example with a long-range radar, where the radar frequency is in the L band, an unambiguously measured phase difference Δφ corresponds with an elevation ε between 0� and 40�, if the phase centers of the receiving elements are spaced 35 cm-45 cm apart.
The determination of the elevation by phase measurement has been known from prior art for a long time. Radar interferometers of this kind are used in air traffic approach systems. With these systems a plurality of receiving elements are employed, and the elevation angle is determined by interferometric means. Because these systems do not include a reflector, they lack the high gain which is necessary to integrate them in radar systems suitable for long-range operation.
If the radar system according to the invention is subject to clutter, faulty measurements will be made and incorrect elevation angles will be obtained. For this reason it is desirable to equip the radar system with conventional MTI circuitry. To retain the phase information in the received signals quadrature phase detectors are employed.
It will be clear that the present invention is applicable in the most diversified active, passive, pulse- and and continuous-wave radar systems, and that the phase measuring circuit may be used in all kinds of conventional embodiments.
A preferable embodiment will now be described with reference to the accompanying FIGURE which schematically illustrates a radar system in accordance with the invention.
In the FIGURE, 1 represents a pulse radar transmitter, 2 an antenna, and 3 and 4 two receiving channels. Antenna 2 consists of a reflector 5 and two vertically mounted radiating elements 6 and 7, of which element 6 functions as transmitting and receiving element and element 7 as receiving element only. The radar pulses generated in transmitter 1 are emitted via a circulator 8 and antenna 2. The echo signals are received by antenna 2 and are converted to i.f. signals in receiving channels 3 and 4. These channels are connected to quadrature phase detectors 9 and 10. Each of detectors 9 and 10 consists of two phase detectors, 11, 12 and 13, 14 respectively, and a 90� phase shifter, 15 and 16 respectively, so that phase detection occurs in two mutually perpendicular components I1, Q1 and I2, Q2, respectively, using an i.f. signal coherent with the transmitter signal. The signals thus detected are converted into a digital form in an analog-digital converter, 17, 18, 19 and 20, and are applied to a digital MTI filter 21, 22, 23 and 24, respectively. The signals from these filters still contain all phase information. These signals are then sent to a phase measuring circuit 25 to determine the phase difference Δφ between the signals received by the radiating elements 6 and 7 in accordance with the relationship: ##EQU1## The phase measuring circuit comprises: four buffer elements 26, 27, 28 and 29 for temporarily storing the digitized values of I1, Q1, I2 and Q2 from the MTI filters; four units 30, 31, 32 and 33 for converting the buffered values into log I1, log Q1, log I2 and log Q2 respectively; two subtracters 34 and 35 for producing the values log (I1 /Q1) and log (I2 /Q2) respectively; two permanent memories 36 and 37 for providing, on the supply of the values log (I1 /Q1) and log (I2 /Q2), the corresponding values arctan (I1 /Q1) and arctan (I2 /Q2); and a subtractor 38 for obtaining from the values arctan (I1 /Q1) and arctan (I2 /Q2) the phase difference ##EQU2## A transformation unit 39 is connected to phase measuring circuit 25 for converting the measured phase difference into a corresponding value of the elevation angle ε at which the target, emitting the received signals, was situated. In the embodiment in question transformation unit 39 functions as a pulse modulator that converts the digital phase difference Δφ into a pulse train, of which the number of pulses represents the elevation angle ε. Although the transformation unit may be of various designs, such as a permanent memory, a simple design was selected to be able to present, besides the video signal displayed on a PPI, a number of pulses to indicate the elevation angle of the target displayed next to the video signal of this target. The embodiment herein described, with the transmitter frequency lying in the L band, is capable of measuring the phase difference Δφ unambiguously over a 0�-40� elevation interval, if the distance between the phase centers of radiating elements 6 and 7 is selected between 35 and 45 cm, i.e. approximately 1.5 λ.

Game time: 8 p.m. ET (pregame 7:30 p.m.)TV: Sun Sports While LeBron James and Dwyane Wade continue to guide the thriving Miami Heat, the Los Angeles Clippers' start-studded roster has been depleted by injuries. That could change Friday night. Los Angeles hopes Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Jamal Crawford and Chauncey Billups each will be in the lineup as it continues its eight-game road trip against Miami. The Heat (32-14) have won eight of their last 10 games, with James scoring at least 30 points in each contest during a three-game winning streak. He scored 32 in Wednesday's 114-108 win over Houston, two nights after hitting 13 of 14 from the field in a 99-94 win over Charlotte. Coach Erik Spoelstra said James can adjust to any defense, which is the main reason James is shooting a career-best 55.6 percent from the floor. "He reads the game and does whatever's needed," Spoelstra said. "What you have is the most talented player in the league, a once-in-a-generation player. You add to t...

"Out of Doors": Attend a Nature Lecture by Opal Whiteley
Last week, New Yorker essayist Michelle Dean published a piece on the diaries of mystical nature writer Opal Whiteley, "Opal Whiteley's Riddles." Originally appearing in the Atlantic Monthly beginning in March of 1920, Opal's diaries were both popular and controversial as a piece of literature. Whiteley presented the diaries as a product of her childhood spent in the Oregon wilderness; skeptics were dubious that a six-year-old child could have developed such an distinctive voice and wide-ranging, fantastical vision.
Though Whiteley was born and raised in Oregon, the story of her diary has deep Boston roots in the patronage of Atlantic Monthly editor Ellery Sedgwick, a wealthy and influential Boston Brahmin, who supported Whiteley during a laborious editing process (the diary had survived only in fragments). Because of the disputed nature of Whiteley's work, Sedgwick gathered extensive materials related to her life and writing which eventually became part of the Ellery Sedgwick Papers here at the Massachusetts Historical Society. In addition to the Opal Whiteley materials in the Ellery Sedgwick papers, the Massachusetts Historical Society also holds a copy of the original 1920 edition of The Story of Opal: The Journal of an Understanding Heart (which can also be read full-text online at the Internet Archive) and a poster advertising one of Opal's nature lectures, given in 1917.
Before traveling to Boston in search of a publisher, Whiteley – as the self-described "Sunshine Fairy" – put herself through the University of Oregon by giving public lectures on the natural world. It was these lectures – developed into a book she titled The Fairyland Around Us – which Whiteley initially approached Sedgwick about publishing in September of 1919, at the encouragement of Henry Chapman from The Youth's Companion, a popular American children's magazine. While Sedgwick declined Fairyland, in the course of their conversation he discovered Whiteley had kept a diary during her childhood and expressed interest in seeing this original source material.
Note: Those interested in consulting Ellery Sedgwick's research material on Opal Whiteley should consult the finding guide and contact the library in advance of their visit, as the collection is in offsite storage.

FS: SoCal, 2012 1500 4x4 BDS 4 inch lift w/ wheels, tires and amp steps
Up for sale locally in Southern California is a BDS 4 inch lift for a Ram 1500 4x4. I dont know if it fits any other years. I am also selling the wheels and tires which are: 35 Toyo M/T and Fuel Revolver 20x10, 4.5 backspacing, -24 offset. One wheel has minor curb rash, its not really that big and I think it adds character to it LOL. The amp steps are also coming off. The lift and tires have approximately 14k miles on them. There is nothing wrong with the set up I just need the extra cash at the moment.
The BDS lift is a 4 inch lift, with raised coil springs in the rear along with fox shocks and bilsteins up front. I would like to sell the whole thing as a package to a serious buyer. The lift is still on the truck and will not take it off until we have come to an agreement. My installer (Industrial Motoring in Anaheim, CA could do the swap and will offer a good price to both of us, if the buyer is interested in going that route). I am asking 4000.00 OBO I paid almost 7K for the whole thing, I am looking for stock wheels and tires preferably Laramie or Big Horn wheels, we can knock some of the price on the lift. Please PM me if interested, please serious buyers only and do not low ball me as you and I know how much a whole lift system with wheels, tires and electronic steps goes for.
A few pics of when the truck was first lifted (please note since these pics were taken, the bilsteins have been adjusted to level the truck out with the rear lift).
man that's a shame :/ Your truck is awesome. But gotta do what you gotta do I guess. GLWS
WOW that looks awesome.....Good luck with the sale.....
Would you be interested in selling just the wheels/tires?
GLWS, that is a heck of a package deal.....zero to hero in $4000 or less....good luck.
I'd be interested if you were in texas. GLWS
Interested in the amp steps...shoot me a price shipped to 31324
Ok guys, I am trying to sell this thing as a whole package, I don't plan on removing the amp steps unless I got a solid buyer for the lift. I will consider shipping or parting things out as last resort. Thank you.

The three concepts are called Luxury, Sport and Crossover with each of these versions showcasing a different grille design and front and rear bumpers.

John Henry: Grateful to Sox players
One year ago things looked pretty bleak.
The Sox were wrapping up a nose-dive under the misguided watch of Bobby Valentine and the franchise had just shipped a quarter of a billion dollars worth of talent to the west coast.
Yet, Red Sox owner John Henry stood on the field at Fenway on Friday night with Jonny Gomes spraying champagne in the background as the Sox celebrated the A.L. East title.
"It's been a great year," said Henry. "I think from the first day of spring training they all believed in themselves and then they went on the field every day and proved it."
But Henry couldn't have expected things to turn around so quickly, could he?
"[At the time we made the trade] we just weren't the team we wanted to be," said Henry. "We just didn't do it on the field, but boy this team sure did. I'm just filled with gratitude that they went out every day and played hard.
"[Terry Francona] used to say, 'If we had nine Dustin Pedroia's we'd be champions.' This year it felt like we had 25 every game."
Henry described John Farrell as a 'stabilizing force' in the clubhouse, and credited the players' hard work for the worst-to-first turnaround.

McAfee makes debut in safeguarding business data

IRS tapes missing in Kansas CityJanuary 22, 2007
Veterans' data swiped in theftMay 22, 2006
McAfee Data Loss Prevention Host, or DLP Host, is a hardware and software package designed to help companies lessen the chances that their physical and electronic data is at risk of being lost or stolen.
The package consists of software, as well as a server for logging and management that aims to make it easier for security administrators to monitor data activity, compile reports and manage company security policies from a central point. DLP Host also contains features for blocking sensitive data transfer, and providing protection for employees who are working remotely or off their corporate networks.
The protection measures in DLP Host additionally extend beyond strictly electronic data to prevent physical losses of items such as laptops, CDs, USB drives and printed documents.
This marks security veteran McAfee's entry into the data loss market, putting the company into a field that has been until this point dominated by smaller firms like Vontu, Code Green Networks, and GTB Technologies.
The threat of data loss has become increasingly high profile in the wake of headlines about a missing laptop containing U.S. Department of Veterans' Affairs data last summer and now disappearing tapes that belonged to the Internal Revenue Service. While the most prominent data losses thus far have been in the government sector, corporations remain vulnerable as well.
McAfee's release of DLP Host comes amid this week's 16th annual RSA Conference in San Francisco, which started as a small get-together for crypto enthusiasts but has turned into a major event for corporations looking to bolster their security infrastructures.

Colour From the Dark - DVD
Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Feb 23, 2010The next generation of Italian horror arrives with Bad Brains director Ivan Zuccon's adaptation of the classic H.P. Lovecraft story The Colour out of Space. It's the 1940s. The entire planet is at war, yet Pietro and Lucia live on a peaceful, isolated farm with Lucia's fifteen year old sister Alice, who suffers from severe mental problems. Unlike his three brothers, Pietro has been spared from fighting due to a deformed knee. But even despite Pietro's crippling malady, the poor farmer works tirelessly to till the soil and care for his crops so that his family will be able to eat. Then, one day, as Pietro and Alice attempt to draw water from their well, they inadvertently release something from deep within the Earth's womb. Entranced, the couple peers down the well to see an otherworldly color flutter beneath the water before disappearing without a trace. In the following days, the entire farm is beset by a series of inexplicable occurrences. When the sun falls over the horizon, the surrounding vegetation begins to glow with a sinister light that seems not of this Earth. As the color continues to spread throughout the farm, into the family home, and ultimately into the very minds of Pietro and his family, they are gradually drawn into a sickening world of suffering, blood, and death. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

Type: Event | Date: Tuesday, Sep 8, 2009The long-running cartoon from William Hanna and Joseph Barbera that began life in 1969 as Scooby-Doo, Where Are You? becomes this live-action, tongue-in-cheek comedy-adventure featuring a computer-generated version of the easily frightened, mush-mouthed Great Dane. Freddie Prinze Jr. stars as Fred, the blonde, confident, ascot-sporting leader of Mystery Inc., a ghost-busting service that exposes phony supernatural phenomena as the work of shysters. Working with Fred are: his rich, beautiful girlfriend, Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), who has a bad habit of getting kidnapped by villains; Velma (Linda Cardellini), the real brains of the group who pines secretly for Fred; cowardly slacker and dog's best friend Shaggy (Matthew Lillard); and the snack-gobbling pet pooch Scooby. However, after solving its latest case involving a beleaguered toy company owner (Pamela Anderson), the group fractures over Fred's habit of grabbing credit for everyone's hard work, despite the pleas of Shaggy and Scooby. Two years later, they are reunited at Spooky Island, a theme park and teen spring break destination that owner Emile Mondavarious (Rowan Atkinson) claims is plagued with ghosts. Suspicious as usual of any claims involving the paranormal, the Mystery Inc. clan is soon probing a scheme involving ancient rites, summoned spirits, and brainwashed college students, forcing the group members to resolve their differences and uncover the truth. Directed by Chris Columbus protégé Raja Gosnell, Scooby-Doo features the voice of Scott Innes as the title character. ~ Karl Williams, All Movie Guide

Huge waves measured for first time in Arctic OceanJuly 30, 2014 8:03 am | by Hannah Hickey, Univ. of Washington | News | Comments
As the climate warms and sea ice retreats, the North is changing. An ice-covered expanse now has a season of increasingly open water that is predicted to extend across the whole Arctic Ocean before the middle of this century. Storms thus have the potential to create Arctic swell. A Univ. of Washington researcher made the first study of waves in the middle of the Arctic Ocean, and detected house-sized waves during a September 2012 storm.
Not in my backyard: U.S. sending dirty coal abroadJuly 28, 2014 10:48 am | by Dina Cappiello, Associated Press | News | Comments
As the Obama administration weans the U.S. off dirty fuels blamed for global warming, energy companies have been sending more of America's unwanted energy leftovers to other parts of the world where they could create even more pollution. This fossil fuel trade threatens to undermine the president's strategy for reducing the gases blamed for climate change and also reveals a side effect of countries acting alone on a global problem.
Climate change, air pollution will combine to curb food suppliesJuly 28, 2014 9:18 am | by David L. Chandler, MIT News Office | News | Comments
Many studies have shown the potential for global climate change to cut food supplies. But these studies have, for the most part, ignored the interactions between increasing temperature and air pollution. A new study shows that these interactions can be quite significant, suggesting that policymakers need to take both warming and air pollution into account in addressing food security.
World breaks monthly heat record two times in a rowJuly 23, 2014 8:54 am | by Seth Borenstein, AP Science Writer | News | Comments
The globe is on a hot streak, setting a heat record in June. That's after the world broke a record in May. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration announced this week that last month's average global temperature was 61.2 degrees, which is 1.3 degrees higher than the 20th century average. It beat 2010's old record by one-twentieth of a degree.
Study: Global warming "pause" reflects natural fluctuationJuly 22, 2014 9:06 am | News | Comments
According to recent research from McGill Univ., statistical analysis of average global temperatures between 1998 and 2013 shows that the slowdown in global warming during this period is consistent with natural variations in temperature. The study concludes that a natural cooling fluctuation during this period largely masked the warming effects of a continued increase in man-made emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
66-yard crater appears in far northern SiberiaJuly 18, 2014 8:47 am | News | Comments
Russian scientists say they believe a 66-yard wide crater discovered recently in far northern Siberia could be the result of changing temperatures in the region. Andrei Plekhanov, a senior researcher at the Scientific Research Center of the Arctic who visited the crater this week, the crater was mostly likely the result of a "build-up of excessive pressure" underground due to rising temperatures.
Urban heat is not a mythJuly 10, 2014 8:40 am | by Kevin Dennehy , Yale Univ. | News | Comments

Figuring out methane's role in the climate puzzleJuly 10, 2014 8:30 am | News | Comments
The U.S. may be on the verge of an economy driven by methane, the primary component of natural gas, which burns cleaner than coal and is undergoing a production boom. It has poised the country as a top fuel producer globally, but recent research is casting serious doubts over just how climate friendly it is, according to an article in Chemical & Engineering News (C&EN).
Ironing out details of the carbon cycleJuly 7, 2014 10:02 am | by Steven Powell, Univ. of South Carolina | News | Comments
Iron is present in tiny concentrations in seawater, on the order of a few billionths of a gram in a liter. However, its availability in seawater can have a profound effect on phytoplankton growth and, consequently, the Earth's carbon cycle. In recent research, an assessment was made of the various sources of dissolved iron in the north Atlantic Ocean and surprising discoveries were made about their origins.
Fine-scale climate model projections predict malaria at local levelsJuly 7, 2014 9:56 am | by Sara LaJeunesse, Penn State | News | Comments
According to a team of researchers who applied a statistical technique to conventional, coarse-scale climate models, population centers in cool, highland regions of East Africa could be more vulnerable to malaria than previously thought, while population centers in hot, lowland areas could be less vulnerable. The new approach improves the accuracy of earlier efforts that used global climate model simulations results.
A win-win-win solution: Biofuel, climate and biodiversityJune 25, 2014 10:44 pm | News | Comments
Fossil fuel emissions release billions of tons of carbon into the atmosphere each year. In Brazil, the demand for alternative energy sources has led to an increase in biofuel crops. New research demonstrates the high carbon costs of converting intact Brazilian savanna compared to the carbon gains obtained from converting underutilized pastureland for biofuel crops.
Understanding the ocean's role in Greenland glacier meltJune 24, 2014 8:33 am | News | Comments
In the last 40 years, ice loss from the Greenland Ice Sheet increased four-fold contributing to one-quarter of global sea level rise. Some of the increased melting at the surface of the ice sheet is due to a warmer atmosphere, but the ocean's role in driving ice loss largely remains a mystery. Research by U.S. scientists sheds new light on the connection between the ocean and Greenland's outlet glaciers.
If global warming is real, why was it so cold and snowy last winter?June 13, 2014 10:23 am | by Greta Guest, Univ. of Michigan | News | Comments

While a majority of Americans still believe that global warming is occurring, the cold and snowy winter of 2014 created more disbelievers, according to the National Surveys on Energy and Environment.
Solving the puzzle of ice age climatesJune 3, 2014 9:12 am | by Genevieve Wanucha, Oceans at MIT | News | Comments
The paleoclimate record for the last ice age tells of a cold Earth whose northern continents were covered by vast ice sheets. Chemical traces from plankton fossils in deep-sea sediments reveal rearranged ocean water masses, as well as extended sea ice coverage off Antarctica. Air bubbles in ice cores show that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere was far below levels seen before the Industrial Revolution.
Obama rolls out rule to cut power plant pollutionJune 2, 2014 11:58 am | by Dina Cappiello and Josh Lederman, Associated Press | News | Comments
The U.S. government rolled out a plan Monday to cut carbon dioxide emissions from power plants by 30% by 2030, a centerpiece of President Barack Obama's efforts to reduce the pollution linked to global warming. The rule, expected to be final next year, sets in motion one of the most significant actions on global warming in U.S. history.

An increasing number of cities around the world now include preparations for climate change in their basic urban planning; but only a small portion of them have been able to make such plans part of their economic development priorities, according to a unique global survey of cities. The Urban Climate Change Governance Survey underscores the extent to which city leaders recognize climate change as a major challenge.
New tide gauge uses GPS signals to measure sea level changeMay 21, 2014 2:19 pm | by Robert Cumming, Chalmers | News | Comments
A new way of measuring sea level using satellite navigation system signals, such as GPS, has been implemented by scientists in Sweden. Sea level and its variation can easily be monitored using existing coastal GPS stations, the scientists have shown, and requires just two antennas that measure signals both directly from the satellites and signals reflected off the sea surface.
Study shows iron from melting ice sheets may help buffer global warmingMay 21, 2014 9:22 am | News | Comments
A newly-discovered source of oceanic bioavailable iron could have a major impact on our understanding of marine food chains and global warming. A team in the U.K. has discovered that summer meltwaters from ice sheets are rich in iron, which will have important implications on phytoplankton growth. In turn phytoplankton capture carbon, thus buffering the effects of global warming.

Studies say climate change worsens wildfiresMay 19, 2014 11:44 am | by Seth Borenstein, Associated Press | News | Comments
The devastating wildfires scorching Southern California offer a glimpse of a warmer and fierier future, according to scientists and federal and international reports. In the past three months, at least three different studies and reports have warned that wildfires are getting bigger, that man-made climate change is to blame, and it's only going to get worse with more fires starting earlier in the year.
Study: Emissions from forests influence first stage of cloud formationMay 16, 2014 8:03 am | News | Comments
Clouds are the largest source of uncertainty in present climate models. Much of the uncertainty surrounding clouds' effect on climate stems from the complexity of cloud formation. New research from scientists at the Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets (CLOUD) experiment at CERN sheds light on new-particle formation, which is the very first step of cloud formation and a critical component of climate models.
Radar surveys and data models indicate West Antarctica Ice Sheet collapse underwayMay 13, 2014 7:27 am | News | Comments
Researchers at the Univ. of Washington have concluded that Antarctica's fast-moving Thwaites Glacier will likely disappear in a matter of centuries, potentially raising sea level by more than a half a meter. Data gathered by airborne radar, detailed topography maps and computer modeling were used to make the determination. The fastest scenario based on the data, the researchers said, is 200 years, and the longest is more than 1,000 years.
Ice-loss moves the Earth 250 miles beneath our feetMay 12, 2014 9:22 am | News | Comments
Studies of Antarctica have shown the earth is "rebounding" due to the overlying ice sheet shrinking in response to climate change. This movement of the land was understood to be an elastic response and a very slow uplift over thousands of years. But new research has revealed that the land in this region is actually rising at a phenomenal rate of 15 mm a year, much greater than can be accounted for by the present-day elastic response alone.
How to count methane emissionsApril 28, 2014 7:29 am | by David L. Chandler, MIT News Office | News | Comments
In formulating policies to address greenhouse gas emissions, or evaluating the potential impact of different energy technologies on global climate change, one of the thorniest issues is how to account for the very distinctive characteristics of various different gases. Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, as well as a significant byproduct of using natural gas. But a direct comparison between methane and carbon dioxide is complicated.
Microscopic organism plays big role in ocean carbon cyclingApril 24, 2014 4:44 pm | News | Comments
It's broadly understood that the world's oceans play a crucial role in the global-scale cycling and exchange of carbon between Earth's ecosystems and atmosphere. Now scientists at Scripps Institution of Oceanography have taken a leap forward in understanding the microscopic underpinnings of these processes. The discovery involves "recycling" bacteria that play an important role in regulating the ocean's storage of carbon dioxide.
