This past Tuesday marked the 150th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation, issued in 1863 by President Lincoln during the American Civil War. Freeing the slaves in Confederate states, the proclamation was a pivotal moment in the war. By adding moral weight to the Union's struggle and ending any realistic chance of Confederate-friendly European powers officially recognizing the Confederacy and entering into the conflict on its side, it arguably guaranteed Federal victory.

Bulls Bay Saltworks
UPDATE: The great branding was designed by Fuzzco!
I just discovered Bulls Bay Saltworks while meandering about online and these amazing line art logos of sea creatures taking on lighthouses pulled me right in. Aren't they adorably incredible? As i started to get past that… the SALT! From how it looks, to how it's made, to the story and incredible couple, Rustin and Teresa Gooden, behind it all… i'm late night smitten and wanting to go to South Carolina.
Here's how they explain the salt making process, "On our home property, we evaporate water in a big greenhouse that we call the solar tunnel. Our salt is crystalized using solar and wind evaporation, harvested by hand and set aside to complete the drying stage." As for why their saltwater is extra special, "Bulls Bay is located in Cape Romain National Wildlife Refuge, which contains a Class One Wilderness Area and is home to one of the healthiest saltwater ecosystems and known for its acclaimed oyster clusters, clams and other seafood." For even more details, go read up on the Bulls Bay Saltworks FAQ. For now - go lust after the lovely packaging of their products with me on the next page!

Users Report Additional Graphics Issues with 17″ Unibody MacBook Pro
Date: Friday, March 6th, 2009, 09:53
Category: MacBook Pro
As nifty as the new 17″ unibody MacBook Pro happens to be, a combined Apple/NVIDIA firmware update may be necessary. According to Engadget, a number of users on the Apple Discussions board have cited serious issues with the GeForce 9600M graphics card installed in the notebook. A GeForce 9400M card is also found in the notebook as well, but complaints cite that the random green lines and nasty artifacts appear only when the more potent card is kicked into action.
Most folks have stated that a reboot solves the problem momentarily, but eventually the issue returns to haunt them.
Stay tuned for additional details as they become available and please let us know if you've seen this problem on your end in the comments or forums.

Crimes against the Constitution. One would think there would be a special 24x7 court created just to prosecute and punish offenses for this category of white-collar crime. Elected officialdom gone sideways, without an ounce of concern over the legality of their totalitarianism.
That's called tyranny, pure and simple. It's criminal and treasonous. And it's ignored as if it makes no difference, 'cause at least it's "something being done."

Still looking for another reporting of these alligations though.
"fundamental principle of American law that a government and its agents are under no general duty to provide public services, such as police protection, to any individual citizen." [Warren v. District of Columbia,(D.C. Ct. of Ap., 1981)]
If I have to explain it, you wouldn't understand
Here's an article from 2002, It talks about several other programs also, but the one in question is first on the list.The LinkRevenge of the gun haters
Dr. Michael S. Brown
web posted February 25, 2002
Politics and public opinion may have turned against the anti-gun lobby, but their burning hatred for guns and gun owners hasn't cooled. Laws passed during the anti-gun witch hunts of the 1990's provide them with a satisfying way to take punitive action against harmless gun owners.
Chicago has some of the strictest gun laws in the nation, which may be one reason it had more murders than any other American city in 2001. Mayor Richard Daley often unleashes verbal attacks on the gun industry to distract attention from his failure to address the real causes of crime.
The Chicago Anti-Gun Enforcement (CAGE) Task Force was formed under the pretense of interdicting illegal gun running to Chicago gangs. The task force has obtained unprecedented access to federal gun purchase records and is compiling a list of gun owners in the region who may be in violation of complicated state gun laws. CAGE officers have already begun to appear at the homes of honest gun owners, whose papers are not in order, to confiscate their firearms.
Illinois Attorney General Jim Ryan has staged questionable sting operations in which ordinary citizens are given false information about gun laws, then enticed into selling guns to undercover agents without completing the proper paperwork. It is no coincidence that Ryan is running for governor.
In Maryland, the state's rabidly anti-gun attorney general issued a creative new interpretation of a 1996 court decision regarding which persons are disqualified from gun ownership. State police are denying permits and confiscating firearms from people with minor convictions that are decades old.
A popular neighborhood activist who received a "Citizen of the Year" award in 2000 was recently denied the gun permit he needed for his job as a private detective and security guard. His only offense was a scuffle with an anti-war fanatic in 1969. Maryland state policemen appeared at the home of another good citizen to confiscate his guns when it was discovered that he had a minor 1983 conviction for a shoving match over a disputed property line.
In California, gun owners are bewildered by new laws that make certain firearms illegal to own. Unfortunately, officials do not agree on which guns are banned, leaving gun owners fearing arrest under laws that can be selectively enforced.
In each of these cases, it is painfully obvious that real criminals are not affected. Self-serving government officials are targeting ordinary citizens, because they are easy targets for action that appeals to the big-city media. It is much more difficult to prosecute real criminals and the inner-city nature of most crime makes for politically incorrect arrests. We can also speculate that these efforts are intended to extract a measure of revenge for the rout of the anti-gun lobby.
At the national level the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms, known as ATF, controls every one of the nation's licensed firearms dealers and has long been criticized for overzealous enforcement by gun rights activists. In order to comply with changes in federal gun laws, ATF quietly decided to change the standard gun registration form that has been used for years. Beginning on February 19, 2002, no sales would be approved unless they were recorded on the new forms.
Not only were many dealers unaware of the change, someone "forgot" to send out the forms. Retail gun sales came to a screeching halt across the country. The new forms were eventually provided, but there was no way to replace the retailers' lost revenue or the time lost by thousands of lawful buyers. Folks at the Brady Campaign probably had a good laugh.
None of these situations would have occurred without the laws passed in the emotional anti-gun frenzy of the last decade. These laws now provide mean-spirited, anti-gun politicians and bureaucrats with many ways to seek revenge against the gun owners who dared to fight for their rights in recent elections and public opinion battles.
In the long run, these moves will backfire as more people realize how far the absurd reality of gun law enforcement varies from the utopian intent.

Hey I think I'll go to Chicago for my next vacation and walk amongst the flowers with no worry of gun violence. When law abiding citizens dont have guns, its gotta be safe. Great strategy Illinois.
Why do any law-abiding gun owners still live in that hellhole of a city? There's 49 other states to live in that aren't as bad.

|Background information
|Also known as
Virginia, United States
|Folk rock, indie folk, indie pop
|Years active
|Kill Rock Stars, Trust Me Corporation
|Associated acts
|Thao & The Get Down Stay Down, Mirah, Tune-Yards
Thao Nguyen (born c.1984),[1] also known as Thao, is an American singer-songwriter originally from Virginia and now based in San Francisco.[2] She is a member of the band Thao & The Get Down Stay Down,[3] as a member of which she has collaborated with Joanna Newsom and Andrew Bird.[4] Outside of the band she has collaborated on projects with several artists including Merrill Garbus, The Portland Cello Project, and Mirah. Her music is influenced by folk, country, and hip hop.[5]
- Early life, education
Born in Virginia and raised in Falls Church, Nguyen began playing guitar and writing songs at the age of twelve while helping out at her mother's laundromat.[6][7] She began performing in high school as part of a pop-country duo with friend Brenna Clerkin.[8] She attended Thomas Jefferson High School for Science and Technology in Fairfax County and studied at the College of William & Mary, where she double majored in Sociology and Women's studies.[6][7] After recording an EP that differed from her initial style, she began performing as a soloist with her acoustic guitar. With her fellow college students Adam and Willis Thompson she formed Thao Nguyen and the Get Down Stay Down.[6][7] After graduating she toured extensively, both with the band and as a solo artist.[7]
- First albums, early collaborations
Her first album, Like the Linen, was released in 2005 and led to a tour as a solo artist supporting Laura Veirs the following year.[6] In 2007 she collaborated with Merrill Garbus of Tune-Yards as 'Merrillthaocracy' releasing the "Tuvalu" single. She subsequently signed to the Kill Rock Stars label, releasing the Tucker Martine-produced We Brave Bee Stings and All album in 2008.[6] In 2008 she duetted with Zach Rogue of Rogue Wave at the 'Revenge of the Book Eaters' benefit show in New York City.[9]
In 2009, Nguyen appeared solo on the nationwide Hotel Cafe Tour. She collaborated with labelmates The Portland Cello Project and Justin Power on the album The Thao and Justin Power Sessions, released in June 2009 and featuring versions of Nguyen and Power's songs.[10][11]
- Move to San Francisco
She moved to San Francisco around 2009, and has been based there since.[12] Over the next few years she began working with outreach projects including the non-profit organization the California Coalition for Women Prisoners, partly to help her to integrate with her new community.[13][14][15][16]
- Thao + Mirah
In late 2009 she met Mirah and the two decided to collaborate.[17] They performed together in early 2010 at the Noise Pop festival in San Francisco.[18] The two later announced a 2010 North American tour, billed under the name Thao and Mirah With The Most of All.[18][19] The album Thao + Mirah, co-produced by Merrill Garbus, was released in 2011 on Kill Rock Stars.[17][20][21] The album allowed both artists to experiment with different instruments, with Nguyen playing banjo and percussion in addition to guitar.[17]
- Recent years
She has also fundraised with Dianna Agron for Oxfam America.[14] In May 2010, a video for the song "Body", directed by Agron, debuted on the website of humanitarian organization Oxfam America. The video features a prelude of Thao and Dianna talking about their friendship, the making of the video, and their work on behalf of Oxfam.
In 2012 Nguyen performed as part of WNYC's Radiolab show's 'Radiolab Live: In the Dark' tour. This self described "nerd circus" also included Radiolab hosts Jad Abumrad and Robert Krulwich, comedian Demetri Martin, and modern dance troupe Pilobolus.[22]
In 2013 an album with the Get Down Stay Down, We the Common, followed, the album's title track dedicated to one of the women she met on her prison visits.[6][12][14]
Thao & the Get Down Stay Down released their fourth studio album A Man Alive on March 4, 2016. The album was produced by Merrill Garbus, who also produced Thao and Mirah's collaborative album Thao + Mirah.[23]
Musical style[edit]
Nguyen's voice has been compared with Cat Power, Fiona Apple, Sinéad O'Connor, and Regina Spektor.[12][15][24][25] Her music has been described as "country-tinged indie folk-pop", and a blend of folk, country, blues and pop.[24][26] Her lyrics deal with relationships and childhood and on We the Common more political themes, including the Occupy movement.[7][12][14]
Nguyen describes herself as a fan of country music, blues, and Motown, and cites Lucinda Williams as a major influence.[27]

Released: Nov 01st, 1998
Running Time: 77
Company: Dreamland USA
Cast: Randi Storm, Anita Cannibal, Johnni Black, Herschel Savage, Mike Horner, Ashley Renee, LeeAnna Heart, Michael Hurt
Critical Rating: AAAA
Genre: Gonzo
This is a must-have video. Stock multiple copies
Leno and Letterman can go to hell; this is what late night TV should be! Jon Morgan is a very entertaining host, and frankly, it's a little more exciting to see the beautiful LeeAnna Heart giving head than to watch an interview with Tom Brokaw for the fifty-millionth time.
Johnni Black steals this video, appropriately, as she hungrily sucks Mike Horner on the guest couch. The doggie that follows is priceless, and Morgan's antics on the edge of the screen while the performers fuck are pretty funny.
LeeAnna Heart gives spectacular blowjobs to Herschel Savage and, in the vid's closer, to Morgan. Lucy, lucky man.

But what we are talking here is something new – or should I say something old that has been put to new use - Comply has been selling a special foam wraps called the 'Soft Wraps' for custom hearing aid for a while now.

Accutone Pavo
" I've worked with Accutone IEMs before. However, I've never been so thoroughly satisfied a product of theirs. Almost every build-quality complaint I've had before lies dead at the feet of the Pavo, and the sound quality is a head above even their flagship IEM, the Gemini HD. I must ask myself: was is smart for Accutone to release such a good earphone for just $51? As of..." --Cinder

Bonnie Raitt 'Not Broken' on New CD
Set List
Songs played by Bonnie Raitt for 'World Cafe':
- "I Will Not Be Broken"
- "I Don't Want Anything to Change"
- "Love Letter"
- "Unnecessarily Mercenary"
Raitt on NPR
Bonnie Raitt's new record, Souls Alike, is her eighteenth album — and the first on which she is credited as a producer. The songs reflect the efforts of clever songwriters from Maia Sharp and David Batteau to Randall Bramblett.
The winner of nine Grammy Awards, Bonnie Raitt was born to a musical family — her father was the noted Broadway singer John Raitt — of Carousel, Oklahoma! and others — and her mother was the pianist Marge Goddard.
But her parents also influenced her latest work in an unexpected, and sad way. John Raitt died in February following a prolonged illness, just months after Raitt's mother, Marge Goddard, died unexpectedly from complications related to Alzheimer's disease.
It's not hard to imagine that those events are what led Raitt to include the song "I Will Not Be Broken" on her new record. Its message of resistance and resolve only deepens when the recent events of Raitt's life are taken into account.
This segment first aired on Nov. 4, 2005.

Patch to forms to add a fieldset attribute to Field for use with templates
|Reported by:

|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
I needed to create a complex form that used fieldsets to divide sections of the form. I finally figured out that to do this, I needed to modify the forms code a bit. I've tested this patch against the latest version of svn and it worked. Below is a snippet of a template to show you how you would use the new fieldset attribute for more complex form layouts. The diff file is attached.
<form action="." method="post">
{% regroup form by fieldset as fields_list %}
{% for field in fields_list %}
<legend>{{ field.grouper|upper }}</legend>
{% for f in field.list %}

comment:2 Changed 8 years ago by jbowman
This is my first submission to Django. I'll glady document the feature. I realize this would need to be updated in the forms documentation, but should it also be documented in templates? Is the process for documentation the same as code, create a .diff of the documentation and submit it?
comment:3 Changed 8 years ago by mtredinnick
Probably only in forms.txt. Although I'm not really sure what the documentation will look like. I mostly checked that box to mean "we should do something". We aren't going to get to really looking at this and deciding if the approach is exactly what we want to do for at least a month or two, since we're really in 1.0 mode now. But it looks simple enough that something like this is worth doing. So write some documentation so we can all see what it might look like when you get a chance. It's always easier to critique stuff that already exists than just saying "we should do something like that".

Forms documentation update for new functionality.
comment:4 Changed 8 years ago by jbowman
Not sure why, but when I view the diff file I created for documentation via the website, it appears empty. Looking at it in vi it's fine. If you need me to do something different, please let me know. I'm leaving it flagged as "needs documentation" as I figure it's up to you all to determine when the documentation is complete.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - Birmingham's City Stages music festival
is history.
Once considered Alabama's premier music event, the three-day festival ended last weekend with a debt of more than $1 million. So organizers say City Stages won't be back in 2010, and the foundation that put it on is going out of business.
In a statement, organizers called the foundation "irretrievably insolvent" and said City Stages could not pay its expenses for this year.
They blamed the economy, hot weather, low ticket sales and other
factors for the demise of the event.
City Stages has been held annually since 1989.

Cafe Scientifique
Café Scientifique is co-sponsored by the MT INBRE and the Montana COBRE programs at MSU. Started in England in 1998, Café Scientifique is based on the French Café Philosophique and has recently spread to a handful of locations in the U.S.
Community members come together in a friendly locale after work and hear a short talk on an interesting current scientific topic. Following the presentation, there is time for questions, answers, and general discussion. Cambridge University Varsity Magazine wrote, "Café Scientifique tries to take science away from the bum-numbing chairs of the classroom and into big, fluffy sofas . . . It tries to play a role in promoting public engagement in science, making it accountable, because science is no longer for the scientist alone."
The Café typically takes place on selected Thursday evenings from 6:00 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Baxter Ballroom, 105 West Main Street in Bozeman, Montana. This event is free and everyone is welcome. Hors d'oeuvres are provided and drinks are available for purchase.

A woman crawled 60 metres up a steep bank after crashing off
the road in driving rain this morning.
The 43-year-old managed to clamber from the wrecked vehicle
near Raupunga in Hawkes Bay at about 9.30am.
With bad back injuries, she then managed to scramble back up
the steep, wet bank to flag down a passing car for help.
An ambulance from Wairoa, 25 minutes away, arrived to treat
her at the scene for moderate to serious back injuries.
She was taken to nearby Raupunga rugby grounds helicopter
landing pad site before the Lowe Corporation Rescue
Helicopter airlifted her to Hawke's Bay Regional Hospital.
A hospital spokeswoman said her injuries were still being
assessed in the emergency department.
Stephen Smith, Hawke's Bay districts operations manager, said
the woman had been travelling from Gisborne to Hawke's Bay
when she went off the road.
He said it had been raining solidly since last night and road
conditions "weren't the best".

Hi there Eelaine, just a note of interest, the bird you captured is a long tailed sibia :)
I thought Fraser's Hill was the best hill station in Malaysia. A pity that accomodation there was expensive! :-(

text: Hello everybody! I'm new here, and wish you could assess the team that I'm using in order to gain experience to further develop my skills in battles, I've been using a team tent, with a view to making more my style of play very defensive. But let's get to it: (Hippowdon) (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Sand Stream EVs: 252 HP / 244 Def / 12 SDef Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Slack Off - Whirlwind - Stealth Rock Hippowdon wall physically resistant to good physical hits, besides help against physical Tyranitar among others, besides climate change to sand, what helps a lot against teams from rain and sun; leftolvers guarantees a longer life ... (Forretress) (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Sturdy EVs: 252 HP / 4 Def / 252 SDef Sassy Nature (+SDef, -Spd) - Spikes - Gyro Ball - Toxic Spikes - Rapid Spin Fundamental to the performance of the team, I opted for the special defensive forrestress once before analyzing what the current meta-game with forrestress SDEF come more often in the game in order to put spikes and toxic spikes, use Gyro Ball's a great support against gengar's and terrakion's that may counterar the softly. (Jellicent) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Water Absorb EVs: 248 HP / 216 Def / 44 Spd Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Shadow Ball - Taunt - Recover - Will-O-Wisp By far the best blocker in use today for Spin OU metagame therefore received a point to stay on this team. Taunt + WoW in order to get forrestress and ferrothorn, I chose to use Shadow Ball in order to catch Deoxys-D and other Jellicents, besides all this can be jellicente salvation before Keldeo (as long as it does not have HP electric) (Blissey) (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Natural Cure EVs: 4 HP / 252 Def / 252 SDef Bold Nature (+Def, -Atk) - Wish - Seismic Toss - Protect - Toxic Despite being very committed to BW2 opted to keep the wall like Blissey team in particular, the use of wish is very useful against equips "volturn"; toxic assists against Latias calminder among others, and seismic toss that ensures constant hit on their counters, basically protect the student pokemons banders opponent besides Guaranteeing you love to hit a turn toxic when possible. (Gyarados) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Intimidate EVs: 252 HP / 252 Def / 4 SDEF Impish Nature (+ Def,-SAtk) - Rest - Sleep Talk - Waterfall - Dragon Tail That kind of summed Gyarados Stealth Rock and Spikes can cause a big headache opponents in rest and sleep you talk of greater life and this added to the wish Blissey causes it to enter often, I chose dragon tail in place of roar although not 100% effective when acuracy generates a damage precious as rotom in pokemon, Latias and Latios among others ... (Heatran) (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Flash Fire EVs: 244 HP / 32 SAtk / 12 SDEF / 220 Spd Calm Nature (+ SDEF,-Atk) - Protect - Substitute - Roar - Lava Plume Perhaps the biggest surprise of this team, Heatran assures me good support, plus protect leftolvers substitute roar and gives him a good recovery to him, stab lava plume moves with a high chance of burn can haxiar terrakions and Tyranitar that may come into field (when it is not the presence of toxic spikes) conclusion: It's definitely the best team that ever ridden, and I have been performing well with it, but I'm open to suggestions and criticisms that can improve my game, hear from more experienced players will be of much help.

DC and high-frequency device characteristics of In0.7Ga0.3As and InSb quantum-well field-effect transistors (QWFETs) are measured and benchmarked against state-of- the-art strained silicon (Si) nMOSFET devices, all measured on the same test bench. Saturation current (Ion) gam of 20% is observed in the In0.7Ga0.3As QWFET over the strained Si nMOSFET at (Vg - Vt) = 0.3 V, Vds = 0.5 V, and matched Ioff, despite higher external resistance and large gate-to-channel thickness. To understand the gain in Ion, the effective carrier velocities (veff) near the source-end are extracted and it is observed that at constant (Vg - Vt) = 0.3 V and Vds = 0.5 V, the veff of In0.7Ga0.3As and InSb QWFETs are 4-5times higher than that of strained silicon (Si) nMOSFETs due to the lower effective carrier mass in the QWFETs. The product of veff and charge density (ns), which is a measure of "intrinsic" device characteristics, for the QWFETs is 50%-70% higher than strained Si at low-voltage operation despite lower ns in QWFETs. Calibrated simulations of In0.7Ga0.3As QWFETs with reduced gate-to-channel thickness and external resistance matched to the strained Si nMOSFET suggest that the higher veff will result in more than 80% Ion increase over strained Si nMOSFETs at Vds = 0.5 V, (Vg - Vt) = 0.3 V, and matched Ioff, thus showing promise for future high-speed and low-power logic applications.

City Traffic Worse, Times Whines
posted by January 29 at 13:04 PMon
Driving alone at rush hour on Puget Sound-area freeways now takes longer than ever, the Seattle Times reported Friday—56 minutes from Bellevue to Federal Way, 49 minutes from Federal Way to Seattle, 53 minutes from Everett to Seattle. The state DOT attributed the increase, which ranged from 4 to 14 minutes in various corridors, to job growth, more cars, and the lack of new roads or mass transit. The Times also notes that a 10-year-old report predicted speeds in the 405 corridor would slow to 26 mph in 20 years. Currently, they're at 23 mph.
What surprised me most about the report (as a non-driver who's constantly being tsk-tsked by drivers about how I should "try driving to the Eastside at rush hour") was how little time it takes to get from Seattle to the Eastside, and vice versa: 24 minutes from Seattle to Issaquah, 33 minutes from Seattle to Redmond, 25 minutes from Seattle to Bellevue. (Remember, these are rush-hour averages; daily averages are presumably much lower.) Look, I know it makes people mad to be stuck in their cars. But come on: Whining about a 20-minute commute is like bitching when Starbucks takes five minutes to make your latte instead of three. Yes, it's time wasted, but not that much—especially when compared to the nightmare commutes faced by drivers in places like Houston, where roads are plentiful and mass transit scarce.
What the study really illustrates, I think, is that we can't build our way out of congestion (see, again, Houston); and yet things aren't bad enough yet to force us to change our car-loving ways. As long as it's easier to drive alone than carpool or take mass transit, people will drive alone—and mass transit won't get built. This is the paradox Seattle finds itself in: traffic bad enough to make people bitch and moan, but not bad enough to convince us to invest in real mass transit that will get people out of their cars.

A magnetic body changes its thermal state when subjected to a changing magnetic field. In particular, if done under adiabatic conditions, its temperature changes. For the past 15 years the magnetocaloric effect has been the focus of significant research due to its possible application for efficient refrigeration near room temperature. At the same time, it has become common knowledge within the magnetic refrigeration research community that the magnetocaloric effect was discovered by the German physicist E. Warburg in 1881. We re-examine the original literature and show that this is a misleading reading of what Warburg did, and we argue that the discovery of the effect should instead be attributed to P. Weiss and A. Piccard in 1917.

The United Nations plays a key role in coordinating the international response to climate change. But it is no simple job getting cooperation and agreement from the 191 member states of the UN - all intent on pursuing their own self interests and policies - even when the evidence is clearly shows that failing to act would be disastrous for all.
The two UN institutions that deal most directly with climate change arethe Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the UNFramework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The firstprovides scientific and technical advice to policy makers, and thesecond develops policy mechanisms to deal with climate change.
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC)
The IPCCwas established in 1988 by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO)and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). At the time it wasrecognised that climate change was a serious issue, and that worldleaders would need unbiased scientific advice - independent of nationalinterests and corporate influence.
The role of the IPCCis to advise policy makers about the current state of knowledge andprovide reliable information pertaining to climate change. It does notconduct any scientific research itself, but instead reviews thethousands of papers on climate change published in the peer reviewedliterature every year and summarises the 'state of knowledge' onclimate change in Assessment Reports which are published every fiveyears or so. About 1,000 experts from all over the world were involvedin drafting the most recent, the Third Assessment Report (2001), andabout 2,500 were involved in its review. The Fourth Assessment Report,well under way now, is due to be published in 2007. The IPCC alsopublishes a variety of other reports on request of governments,intergovernmental organisations or international treaties.
TheIPCC is broken down into three working groups. The first workinggroup "assesses the scientific aspects of the climate system andclimate change". That is, it reports on what we know aboutclimate change - if it is happening, why it is happening and how fastit is happening. The second working group " assesses the vulnerabilityof socio-economic and natural systems to climate change, negative andpositive consequences of climate change, and options for adapting toit". That is, it looks at what degree climate change will impact peopleand the environment, and what changes might reduce its impacts. The third working group "assesses options for limiting greenhouse gasemissions and otherwise mitigating climate change." That is, itexamines ways we can stop human caused climate change, or at least slowit down.
Greenpeace relies heavily on IPCC reports as the basis for its international climate campaign.
See the Scientific Consensus page for a brief overview of the IPCC's latest conclusions.
Read in more detail about the IPCC's most recent assessment.
Visit the IPCC's own website for the full text of the Third Assessment Report.
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)
The UNFCCCwas agreed at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1992, andhas since been ratified by 189 countries. Its ultimate objective:
"[The] stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in theatmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenicinterference with the climate system. Such a level should be achievedwithin a time-frame sufficient to allow ecosystems to adapt naturallyto climate change, to ensure that food production is not threatened andto enable economic development to proceed in a sustainable manner."
The Convention then goes on to say:
"The Partiesshould protect the climate system for the benefit of present and futuregenerations of humankind, on the basis of equity and in accordance withtheir common but differentiated responsibilities and respectivecapabilities. Accordingly, the developed country Parties should takethe lead in combating climate change and the adverse affects thereof."
( Full text of the Convention)
TheUNFCCC is, as its name implies, a 'framework' convention, and needssubsidiary legal instruments (e.g. protocols) to effect its goals. Ithas a non-binding target, which calls for industrialised countries tobring their emissions back to 1990 levels by 2000. However, itwas obviously by 1995 that these voluntary targets wereinadequate. Realizing the need for another approach, in1995 the Parties to the Convention established a process to negotiate aprotocol with binding targets and timetables "as a matter of urgency".The result was the Kyoto Protocol, which was agreed in December of 1997and finally entered into force on February 16, 2005.
The annualmeetings of the Convention are called Conferences of the Parties(COPs). These meetings continue, and are attended by governmentofficials, industry lobbyists, Greenpeace and many other groups. Most of the Parties are genuinely seeking a way forward, looking evenbeyond Kyoto, but there are always those with huge vested interests inthe continuation of the fossil fuel industry - such as representativesof the Bush administration and the OPEC countries - whose main goal isto cripple the convention and generally prevent any true progresson the issue.

Production zero emission Zoe gives clues to the look of the redesigned Clio due to debut at Paris in September.
Renault's D-segment Laguna executive car failed because it was a poor design, said the French carmaker's marketing director Stephen Norman, but there will be a better looking version in future.
"It was a good car in the wrong clothes," said Norman. "There was nothing wrong with its quality or ride and handling."
He said Renault was definitely not pulling out of the executive market because "we cannot leave the Volkswagen Passat to have the market to itself in the upper medium segment.
"But we have to get the next Laguna right in terms of design because buyers in the upper medium segment expect their car to say something about their status. I think Citroen has got it right with the C5 and certainly the DS5 - we will not come out with a copy, though."
That the iconic Espace people carrier was put on hold was due to the economic climate, said Norman. "We had to put two projects on hold, one of them you know about, the new Espace, and the other which you don't know about, but it would have been a huge asset for us."
The new Espace will eventually take to the road based on a common Renault-Nissan platform and Norman said it may have some input from Daimler through the technology tie up. As well as a new Laguna, "there may be a car above that in the E-segment".
He admitted Renault had been quiet for some time "largely because around 2007 and 2008 we launched Twingo, Laguna and Megane within 18 months of each other and that created problems for us because they were too close together. It meant that we had no new product to follow for a while and all the facelifts came at the same time. It was important to get the model development out of sync.
"Our electric vehicles Twizy and Zoe are coming out close together but there is some space between them and others."

EDF Action: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o6jrWp97bs0&feature=youtu.be
NRDC Action Fund: http://youtu.be/113W5CacMLg
PHILADELPHIA, PA (September 1, 2015) – The NRDC Action Fund and EDF Action today launched a seven-figure TV and digital ad campaign urging Senator Pat Toomey to stop voting against the federal Clean Power Plan, which cuts dangerous carbon pollution from power plants, and against vital public health and climate protections for Pennsylvanians.
Sen. Toomey, who has taken $1,163,431 in campaign contributions from polluters, has repeatedly voted to undermine environmental protections, including the Clean Power Plan, putting the health and safety of Pennsylvania families in jeopardy. The groups are launching the lobbying ads to highlight his votes and urge the senator to vote for public health and climate action if additional measures to dismantle them are considered, as expected, this fall in the U.S. Senate.
"Carbon pollution, the key driver of climate change, harms public health and causes more asthma attacks in children," said Elizabeth Thompson, president of EDF Action. "No one wants to breathe dirty air, especially the most vulnerable among us. Senator Toomey ought to support the EPA's Clean Power Plan and its safeguards that protect Pennsylvanians' health."
"Climate change is a clear and present danger to the health of Pennsylvanians, and one that Senator Toomey has ignored for too long," said David Goldston, director of government affairs, NRDC Action Fund. "Senator Toomey should stop siding with polluters and start protecting Pennsylvanians from dirty air that worsens asthma attacks, and the best way is to strongly support the Clean Power Plan. It will curb the dangerous carbon pollution fueling climate change and help Pennsylvanians breathe easier."
The television and digital ads begin September 8th on Pennsylvania broadcast and online news outlets in the greater Philadelphia and Pittsburgh metropolitan areas, and will continue for several weeks.
The Environmental Protection Agency finalized the Clean Power Plan on August 3rd. It places the first-ever federal limits on carbon pollution from power plants, the pollution that fuels climate change. Those limits will also cut pollution that leads to increased asthma attacks for Pennsylvanians and other Americans.
The Clean Power Plan will cut carbon pollution from power plants 32 percent by 2030. As a result of the new standards, Americans will experience health benefits worth an estimated $14 billion-$34 billion in 2030, including avoiding 3,600 premature deaths and 90,000 asthma attacks in children. In addition, average electricity bills for consumers are projected to decline by more than $80 per year when the Clean Power Plan is fully implemented.
The ad campaign in Pennsylvania is part of a larger effort by four leading environmental and conservation groups to highlight key senators' votes against carbon pollution protections that protect families and communities and urge the senators to vote for public health and climate action. Similar ad campaigns will run in North Carolina, Ohio, and Wisconsin.
EDF Action is sponsoring an ad titled "Facts" that will begin airing September 8. The ad's audio text is:
"Let's clear the air. There are no limits on the amount of carbon pollution power plants can release. And our Senator, Pat Toomey, led the fight to keep it that way.
"Carbon pollution, a major cause of climate change, leads to more asthma attacks in children. Over a million Pennsylvanians now suffer from asthma. And Senator Toomey took over a million dollars from polluters.
"Tell Senator Toomey: it's time to clear the air. Vote for the Clean Power Plan."
NRDC Action Fund is sponsoring an ad titled "Outside" that will begin airing September 18. The ad's audio text is:
"More kids are suffering from asthma. And we still have no limits on carbon pollution, which can lead to more asthma attacks in children.
"But Senator Toomey has voted repeatedly to let polluters keep releasing unlimited carbon pollution into the air. And took more than one million dollars from the polluters.
"Tell Senator Toomey to vote for the Clean Power Plan. Because unlimited pollution shouldn't be a right. But playing outside… should be."
EDFAction (www.edfaction.org), a 501(c)(4) organization, is at the forefront of educating legislators about developing new solutions that protect the natural world while growing the economy. Through grassroots and direct lobbying, EDFAction amplifies Environmental Defense Fund's ability to champion laws that are based on science, economic incentives, and, above all, the protection of our environment
The NRDC Action Fund's mission is to build political support in the United States for protecting the planet and its people. We mobilize influential constituencies, experts, community leaders and others to directly advocate for clean air and water, public health, biodiversity, and a stable climate. We support candidates who stand up for environmental protection, and we expose those who side with polluters rather than the public good.
Please note: the NRDC Action Fund is an affiliated but separate organization from the Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC). As a 501(c)(4) nonprofit organization, the NRDC Action Fund engages in various advocacy and political activities for which the Natural Resources Defense Council, a 501(c)(3) organization, faces certain legal limitations or restrictions. News and information released by the NRDC Action Fund therefore needs to be identified as from the NRDC Action Fund.

Quick Fact:
Dizziness can be directly or indirectly related to the changes associated with menopause. Dizziness could be caused by the changes in the body or from medication being taken to relieve the other menopause symptoms.
Headaches and dizziness can be a common but little known symptom of menopause. While in a majority of cases dizziness will pass and headaches can be relieved with a simple aspirin, intense forms of either symptom can be disturbing. Dizziness can be directly or indirectly related to the changes associated with menopause. Therefore, the causes of dizziness might be connected to the changes in the body or result from medication being taken for other menopause symptoms. Menopause headaches and dizziness can be difficult to manage and should be treated with a great deal of caution. Read over the following paragraphs, which outline the headache and dizziness symptoms and treatments during menopause.
Why do I Experience Menopause Headaches and Dizziness?
Menopause headaches and dizziness are typically related to the body's estrogen levels. The lower the level of estrogen, the worse the menopause headaches tend to be and fluctuating hormones can produce spells of dizziness. As a result, when a woman goes through menopause and experiences the fluctuating hormone levels which accompany this period, headaches and dizziness can be quite common. The role of the hormone estrogen in headaches also helps to explain why some women experience headaches in the days leading up to their periods, or during the middle of the menstrual cycle when a woman is ovulating.
What Other Factors can Provoke Headaches and Dizziness?
Quick Fact:
Dizziness is often a more frustrating problem than it is life threatening, but in some cases it may indicate a more serious underlying health concern. For example, sudden feelings of dizziness or vertigo whilst driving could easily cause an accident. For this reason, it is important for a woman not to overlook this menopause symptom and instead but appropriate solutions to help.
Every woman will experience headaches and dizziness differently. However, women who experience headaches during their normal menstrual periods tend to experience them during menopause as well. Factors such as noise, light and stress can also provoke both headaches and dizziness.
Dizziness can occur when there are changes in the blood vessels of the nervous system caused by reduction of estrogen levels. If this is the case, the sufferer will probably also experience hot flashes and night sweats.
What can I do About Menopause Headaches and Dizziness?
Quick Fact:
Women experiencing dramatic hormone fluctuations can suffer from panic attacks, which often include dizziness. In addition to physical causes, there are some medications that could be responsible for the symptoms. A woman should check with her medical practitioner to make sure she is not taking the wrong medication or are in fact suffering from something more serious, such as a tumor.
While there is no one panacea for curing or preventing dizziness and headaches, there are definitely things that can be done to minimize or even avoid their occurrence. The first step involves isolating the triggers of headaches and dizziness (stress for example) and trying to reduce or eliminate these.
The importance of a healthy diet and exercise regime cannot be underestimated in helping to regulate hormone levels. Regulating these levels is important as it is often their imbalance which leads to headaches and dizziness during menopause.
A woman is advised to eat healthily, but also to eat regularly. It is also important to include soy in your diet, which contains phytoestrogens and can help to restore estrogen your body is losing naturally. There are also many alternative medicines that can help stabilize hormone levels naturally and thus reduce the incidence of menopause headaches and dizziness.
