Kidd agreed after reviewing their report.
"Our overall impression is that the fish [off Southern California] are being exposed to contaminants and that there are some effects on hormone production in male and female fish," Kidd said. "However, the conclusions of the report make sense and there is no strong overall evidence of endocrine disruption in turbot at the wastewater-impacted sites."
The discovery of no gender-bending fish is not that surprising, Kidd said, since that "can be an extreme effect... My gut feeling is that it wouldn't happen very often and it would be species-specific."
"Intersex isn't the only canary in the coal mine, so to speak," she said, adding that there could be other signs that their reproductive systems are unhealthy. Scientists do not know much about what altered hormones do to fish fertility. "Any changes in the exposed population, we should be concerned about," she said.
Gully said the money for the second study "wasn't wasted" because it revealed a lot of new data. But he said it was paid for by residents of the two counties through sewage fees "during a time of budget consciousness."
The cross-contamination "generated a flurry of concern and stimulated a lot of good research. But that's a good thing," Bay said.

President Obama says potentially historic flood levels in North Dakota are a clear example of why steps need to be taken to stop global warming. Heavy rain and blizzards have caused eight rivers in the state to swell to flood levels and emergency management officials are warily watching the Red River, which could surpass record levels late this week.
"If you look at the flooding that's going on right now in North Dakota and you say to yourself, 'If you see an increase of two degrees, what does that do, in terms of the situation there?'" Obama told reporters at the White House Monday. "That indicates the degree to which we have to take this seriously."
Waters in the Red River were 33 feet this morning, according to CNN. That's 15 feet above flood stage, and close to the record 41.1 feet set in April 1897, according to the network. The river could exceed those levels by Friday or Saturday, officials say.
"We're concerned about the rise of the river and how fast it's coming up, so our concern is that we're going to hit 41 feet," Fargo Deputy Mayor Tim Mahoney told CNN.
The river runs through eastern North and South Dakota, as well as western Minnesota. Officials are worried it could crest in Fargo, which has more than 99,000 residents. Some 1,000 residents near Bismarck were evacuated last night because of flooding of the Missouri River, according to CNN.

President Obama's pronouncements indicate that he has no clue as to what science is or is not. Even AGW supporters state that you cannot link a weather event to AGW. The President looks at the way the wind blows (literally and figuratively), sees how the crowd is moving and jumps in front of them, calling it leadership. Disheartening.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisWell, your correct that this has nothing to do with global warming. It is just a way to control the masses of the uneducated with some fear toward a goal. However can't you see that this is good directed goal. At least Obama is not lying about where stem cells come from to people that have no clue and concerning himself with the affairs of gay people. At least he is trying to create a fear in the American public that is worth fearing. Stop hating on the man because you hate black folks. Disheartening! Are you serious! What is disheartening is distracting the American public on important issues with ones that have no real purpose.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI have had a fairly high opinion of the president up to this time however, these comments he has made seem to indicate that he is speaking on information given to him by persons who do not know very much about our local conditions.
The flooding issues we often have in the Red River valley do not seem ( in my pedestrian opinion ) to have anything to do with global warming and in fact have much to do with wet falls, winters, and springs as well as very cold winters which cause the ground to freeze farther down - exacerbating runoff problems during spring thaw.
In fact the cold winter and resulting thicker ice on the Red River which will produce worse than average ice jams will probably be our worst enemy during this flood.
A little global warming would probably do us a little good before the next ice age - at least we claim that man is responsible for global warming - we may need as much as we can get sometime in the near future, who knows.
Thank You, JPW.
This does remind me of the story of the emperor's new clothes. Only the virtuous could see the material. Only the intelligent can see the global warming. Don't get me wrong. I'm all for global warming and can hardly wait for it.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisHas no one thought about the fact that in 1897 they may not have been able to divert the water as we do today? We could be adding depth to the water that wouldn't have been there before. If the water spreads out over a flood plain, it is much more shallow than it would be if still contained in the river. Also, I think our current depth gauges are just a bit more accurate than they would have been in 1897. Perhaps the depth reports from 1897 versus now are just a little skewed?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThere were floods before too. Politicians should cut out the hyperbole. I remember when Al Gore talked about hurricanes in 2005. The next two years were unusually calm and he kept quiet. It is just dishonest and makes people doubt science when it is so misused for temporary political gain.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisWhat if global climate changes were known by the Government for over 20 years, the public was never warned and no Presidential Administration ever took any action? Would that make the public sit up and pay attention?
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisegghead 1619:
You have hit on a recurring theme. People re-engineer their local surroundings to such a degree that unintended local consequences occur.
Red River flooding, Bangledesh delta sinking, New Orleans sinking, Kilimanjaro losing ice cover; all of these are due to local inhabitants changing local conditions to dramatic (and very profitable from the perspective of news organizations) results.
Rather seeing their own local actions as the cause, they invent some larger "non-themselves" item to blame, and then ask their leaders to save them from something that was not their fault.
AGW is the ultimate blame game and bureaucratic shell game. Everyone is to blame so no one is to blame. Measurable verifiable results are claimed to be decades or even centuries in the future. In the mean time, just keep spending money and building insular bureaucratic fiefdoms that are morally above reproach. Imagine a project with no beginning and no end, where the results are whatever you decide them to be.
NGO's and Governments were made for this type of issue; they eat it up.
If flooding in North Dakota is proof of global warming, then lack of floods in MI, OH, KS, IA, IN, KY, NY, CT, NJ etc etc is counter proof that there is no global warming. Naturally global warming extremists would reject such an argument since they have abandoned all reason.

You can't post that here; it makes too much sense.
Scientific American used to be credible, substantial, and estimable scientific publication. It's a shame what it has become.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI would easily believe AGW if only the thermometer were not around. If the globe is really getting warmer then I need to know exactly WHAT the politically correct temp is. January temperatures in the midwest at -40 F do not seem warm to me. And if -40 is too warm in the winter there, then what temperature is cool enough? -50 F? -60 F? No scientist anywhere can tell you its too hot if they don't know what is too cold or even just right.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisObama needs to go back to school. This has absolutely nothing to do with global warming - it's nothing more than annual spring flooding. Modern man has forgotten to learn from the past - flood plains are called that for a reason. Levies only make matters worse; amongst other problems, they provide a false sense of security.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThere's no such thing as a "global average temperature" ; it's meaningless. Thermostats do not operate on any "average"; they operate on actual temps. Global warming likewise means nothing. As Christopher Essex puts it in his article "There is no Global Temperature":
"Thermometers measure the temperature from where the thermometer is and from nowhere else. Temperatures from elsewhere have nothing to do with it. But to be "global," global averages depend on temperatures from far away. As the recipe goes, you have to literally collect the temperature in Miami to decide whether "warming" is "affecting" people in Paris.
Oh, just to make it really interesting, that recipe also calls for temperatures in Miami from, for example, 20 years ago. So the climate index story actually is: Long ago and far away, there was a single lonely temperature at a small unimportant airport that grew up to be so important that we all depend on it everywhere ever after. It is like saying that the ice cubes in your freezer are melting because Mike, down the block, lit his barbeque last summer. This "index" cannot possibly be a temperature with properties like that."
We should all find it very disturbing that our president is not aware of the natural processes that accompany the changes of seasons.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI'd be surprised if the Prez even knows where North Dakota is. Perhaps he thinks that the flood of 1826 was caused by manmade global warming too. These AGW quacks will stoop to any level to advance their agenda.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisAbsolutely shameless! For Pres. Obama to blame a local flood (and I lived in Moorhead from '66 - '81 and endured other floods) on AGW is nothing more than grandstanding to promote an agenda. rthemisphere @ 2:05 is correct; also, the Red River flows north where it's colder and still more frozen. And Swaer, your contention about Bush and stem cells is 180 degrees off! He actually increased Federal funding on existing lines while leaving new funding to private investors - as it should be. In the meantime, science advanced and found adult stem cells to show more promise without the need to destroy nascent human life. Abortion absolutists know no shame. And Bush doesn't hate gay people - he just doesn't use government force to endorse and promote their lifestyle.
I don't disrespect Pres. Obama for his race or color - but for his policy positions, his lack of leadership, his lack of basic business acumen or economic common-sense. He hasn't even run a lemonade stand, much less influence the direction of a $14 trillion economy! That, sir, is what I disrespect. But hold that racism card close at hand because you'll flash it as your usual crutch and dodge from accountability.
It looks like President baik-baik is going down the path of Veep "PolarBear" Algore. How very sad that qualified scientists will sit on their thumbs while these travesties are allowed to circulate. I understand the politics of grantsmanship, but there must be some of you out there who will discredit these Lysenkoes.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe flooding in the Dakotas and Minnesota is indisputably due to warming. After a bitter cold winter with heavy snows and extended periods of below-freezing temperatures (surely a sign of global warming), spring brings warming, the massive accumulation of snow melts, and the melt water enters the rivers and raises their levels.
Unprecedented! Thawing in spring? Who could have imagined such an occurrence?
I let my subscription lapse because SciAm put politics in front of Science. I encourage others to examine their own convictions and SciAm's lack of same. Please take appropiriate acton.
"New Orleans sinking,"..."all of these are due to local inhabitants changing local conditions"
Never better said! New Orleans was home to my Grandfather and of great historical significance. But, alas, it was built on a river delta and those are temporary scraps of land subject to floods and erosion. By walling off the floods and pumping out the water, we make it subside all the more. Now much of the city is well below sea level.
To insist on a city there is a battle against nature. But, it's there and it ain't goin' away.
The solution is the historical example of Galveston (Texas) where the whole city was raised about 15 feet (4.5 meters) and a seawall of similar height was built, after the 1900 Storm by a very determined bunch of survivors (among them, my ancestors, I am proud to say) of a hurricane that killed 6 to 8 thousand – the most deadly natural disaster in the history of the United States.
What Obama failed to point out is how severe man made global warming must have been back in April 1892, when the first flooding record was set...
Don't be a bunch of 'sheeple' and be led around by the media/gov. complex... think with your own God given mind and pursue truth; seek the One true Shephard who IS truth!
I read my first Scientific American article my first week at university. I subscribed & kept my old issues. Not any more. Why arn't you publishing the excellent articles I find on the internet? "Greenhouse Gas Facts and Fantasies" (Tom Kondis)The second law of thermodynamics prohibits carbon dioxide from arresting or reversing the spontaneous downhill flow of energy, & advocates & insisting that a trace atmospheric component's innocent participation in a natural heat dissipation process is responsible for warming a planet. The fictitious "trapped heat" property, & "greenhouse gas" metaphor, is & misrepresentation of natural .. energy transfer processes and disregard of two fundamental laws of physics. &."greenhouse effect," a term originally relating the loose confinement of warm nighttime air near ground level by cloud cover, to hot air trapped inside a greenhouse.
That's the kind of stuff Scientific American used to publish.
I am encouraged by the responses that most readers have to this silly story. I cancelled my subscription to Scientific American a few years ago and I encourage other thinking Americans to do the same. Its the most effective way to make the point that readers want science not propaganda.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisTo Geophys55 at 10:02 PM and others.
After 22 years subscribing, I let my sub lapse as well for the same reason. Politics over science.
Blaming every natural disaster on AGW does not make it a truth. Obama is a lawyer, not a scientist. He needs to make a crisis of the situation to push his own political agenda-controlling our life styles by making energy too expensive. The so-called consensus on AGW never really existed and it is becoming more apparent that the computer models used to justify all the hoopla are incorrect.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisBarry never lets facts get in the way of a good story.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to this"President Obama's pronouncements indicate that he has no clue as to what science is or is not. Even AGW supporters state that you cannot link a weather event to AGW. The President looks at the way the wind blows (literally and figuratively), sees how the crowd is moving and jumps in front of them, calling it leadership. Disheartening."
Really? He seems to be working from the IPCC. Think what you will about the IPCC, but it's not "fake science."
"Future Climatic Changes
Over the last century, the average temperature in Pierre, South
Dakota, has increased 1.6°F, and precipitation has increased by
up to 20% in many parts of the state. These past trends may or
may not continue into the future.
Over the next century, climate in South Dakota may change even
more. For example, based on projections made by the Intergov-
ernmental Panel on Climate Change and results from the United
Kingdom Hadley Centre's climate model (HadCM2), a model that
accounts for both greenhouse gases and aerosols, by 2100
temperatures in South Dakota could increase by 3°F in spring and
summer (with a range of 1-6°F) and 4°F in fall and winter (with a
range of 2-7°F). Precipitation is estimated to increase by 10%
(with a range of 5-20%) in spring, summer, and fall, and 20% in
winter (with a range of 10-40%)."
Jonah Gruber:
You are right. IPCC pronouncements are not "fake science", they are Political Science. It IPCC edicts were written by politicians, NOT scientists.
Criticizing 0bama is not racist, Swaer . That is a really shallow liberal argument. He is inexperienced, and knows nothing of the science of climate change. He is just pushing his agenda to redistribute wealth using the scam of climate change (aka Global Warming).
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisI have read and listened to the Global Warming issue for many years and it appears to me rather than jump to conclusions there should be a hearing open to the public where both sides are presented by well known scientist with the facts, not political correct statements. Obama has sponsored cap and trade and if this rediculous program is passed the cost to each American citizen will be very high and it is all based upon pseudo science and fear mongering. Call your representatives in Congress and demand an open hearing on this issue before they do something very stupid. I understand many scientist who do not support man-made Global Warming fear for their jobs and even lives because of the liberals are afraid of the truth. Congress will need to ensure any scientist who provided evidence job and life is protected. It is ashame we live in a country where freedom of speech is only for those who do not want to hear the truth and have to intimidate those honest people who know the truth.
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisglobal warming equals the floods. Look to basic science cold winter frozen ground plus snow spring arrives and rain and warmer weather causes the water to run off into the rivers causing the floods. global warming, I don't think so. just mother nature doing her thing
Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisWhen something that is written in opposition to the proponents who push this Global Warming hoax, to include President Obama's own lack of scientific knowledge and expertise on weather and climate change, why must it always be transformed into a "race issue." The guy is just flat out wrong as is the theory. Check with leading weather scientists throughout the world--and not just in the United States alone. Yes, countries pollute the atmosphere--such as China, India, and Russia--the worst offenders--but we have no control over them and why should the American people pay for their pollution--if it seriously amounts to anything? Can't you see that Global Warming is a hoax to enrich certain Fat Cats who push it--like Al Gore? Also, it is a way for a "socialist oriented" government to tax and control its people. That's what it is all about, folks. What country in the world would deprive its own people from using its own vast natural energy resources of coal, oil, shale oil rock, and natural gas? -- only the United States. Wake up and get real! Our energy producing companies in the USA have a good handle on how to cut down and scrub pollution from entering the atmosphere without putting people out of work or doubling every home owner's monthly electric and natural gas bills. Wait until Obama and his crowd start bankrupting you to pay your utility bills, then you will become a true believer in this Socialist hogwash.

Reply | Report Abuse | Link to thisThe question isn't what if the public were never warned and the administration didn't take action; the question is would there have been enough evidence for anyone to notice any "global warming" if no one had dreamed it up.
When they put weather stations where they get jet exhaust, the readings would tend to read a little higher, wouldn't they? This is also interesting:
Obama has bad advice on global warming. To grasp at local flooding as a sign of global warming is simply asinine and he needs to get rid of that whole gang of "science advisers" who have led him to this absurd stance. The basic fact about global warming is that according to satellite data there was none of it in the eighties and nineties. Yet IPCC computers use phony warming from that period as input to their climate models. As a result the output of these climate models is nothing more than GIGO but is still used to set climate policy by governments. There has been warming indeed but it did not begin until the 1998 "El Nino that should not be there" and continued with the "twenty-first century high" three years later. All this warming in turn came to an end with a La Nina cooling in 2007 that bottomed out in 2008. This warming is itself not understood but it is certainly not caused by carbon dioxide.

Building a snowman is a favorite among most kids, so why not make a game out of it?
Have everyone help make the snowman, complete with a carrot nose and charcoal eyes, but don't put a hat on him--that's where the game comes in.
Once your snowman is built, have everyone line up about 10 feet away. Take turns trying to land the hat on the snowman's head by throwing it Frisbee style.
The player who lands the hat on the snowman's head in the fewest number of throws wins.
Next: Pin the Nose on the Snowman

10-year-old fights off man who'd grabbed her
COUNCIL BLUFFS (AP) — A 19-year-old man has been accused of trying to kidnap a 10-year-old girl in Council Bluffs.
The Council Bluffs Police Department says a man grabbed the girl and forced to her walk with him about 2:20 p.m. Monday near Edison Elementary School. She struggled with him, broke away and ran to her sister, who had driven to the school to pick her up.
The older girl called their dad, who told them to follow the man in case he tried to accost another student. The father went to the scene and held the man until police officers arrived.

I normally do not rave or even talk about trash cans, however, I can't help it with this one. I had another stainless steal one before (it had the foot pedal) and it died fairly quickly. The mechanism to the pedal broke so we were having to open it with our hands. I hate touching trash cans (germs etc.) and this one is perfect. You never have to touch it, other than to remove old bag and replace new. The bag is completely hidden. We've even needed to leave it open while deboning a chicken and the "open" button kept it open. AC adaptor is included with the purchase so no need to buy battery ever. It is a green product! Definitely a great price as well. Awesome can.
The trash can is really nice. If you want to treat yourself, get this trash can. It has worked for a yearnow, no problem. It fills up a 13 gal tall kitchen bag really good. I had a can with a pedal that opened the lid but the lid kept popping off. The AC adaptor that comes with it is a bonus. Happy with my purchase.
I have owned this trashcan less than a month. It worked sporadically at first, but now does not work at all. I called Overstock and as always they were great. I explained that I no longer had the box, and they said they would mail me a replacement and a free return shipping label, and I could return the defective one in that. Although I am not in love with this trashcan, Overstock is the best. And Kaitlyn L in customer service rocks!!!!
I spend lot of time in the kitchen cooking and have been through three different step-on garbage cans. All of which broke in a short time. This one is great! No need to touch or step on the trash can. It is dependable and great size so I don't have to change the garbage all the time, has a manual open button to keep the lid open if you are dumping or using it a lot. We have been very happy with this trash can!
This trash can is better than other sensor trash can models I had in the past. First of all, it doesn't need any battery. It includes an AC adaptor so it works out of the box. If I want to use in an area that doesn't have an outlet, I can still use optional battery power. But it is just an eco-friendly feature that I don't need to spend money on batteries. Secondly, the other brand sensor trash can I had broke after just few months of light use. This one seems a lot more durable. The stainless steel can is thicker and the lid's hinge is stronger.
I love it! only had a few weeks but so far so good. I bought the batteries even though it came with an adapter, just in case I choose to unplug it.makes handling trash so much easier, reduces germs. always a plus.
Product works great. You have both manual open close or sensor open. Easy to keep clean, cleaned up the corner of the kitchen too.
Product works as advertised. Is a little slow to open....probably 2-3 seconds...but when you are standing there waiting for it, it seems like a long time. Product will also open and close as you walk by or stand near it. That's not usually a problem. My grandkids love it. They find reasons to throw things away! :)
I have to admit that the price made me hesitate, but I'm glad I bought it. The ring that holds the bag in place is the best I've ever had and the hands free operation is wonderful. An added bonus is that my three-year old grandson loves helping out by putting things in the "magic" trash can (you just need to endure hearing a lot of "open sesame's" if the have seen Aladdin!). The size is great and holds a lot of rubbish even though the footprint of the can is quite small. All in all this was a great buy.
Works as advertised. Like having the electrical outlet connection versus batteries.

I spent my afternoon and evening yesterday at the first TedxBoulder. It definitely lived up to my expectations, which were incredibly high knowing some of the organizers. I had originally planned to write this post last night after returning home, but it was too fresh and there was too much to process. There were 22 presenters last night speaking on topics as diverse as romance novels and donating your body to science, including video of a human dissection & display of a real human heart–those 4th row seats seemed less desirable during that particular talk. There were many talks that followed the theme of finding and loving your true self. There were talks out to save the planet and its people. There was a former professional triathelete, Buddhist monk, school board member, venture capitalist, improv theater owner, astrophysicist, graphics designer, and much more (all the speakers). This wasn't the kind of night that you happen upon–unless you happen to live somewhere like Boulder.
Here are a few of my favorite talks from last night:
David Thomas, a video game journalist (jealous?), talked about what makes a place fun. His thesis? We think a place is fun if it is and isn't at the same time. Huh? So, he thinks that we think buildings like Lucy there to the right are fun, because the building is an elephant but it's not. It's an interesting way to look at the world and how we can introduce more fun into it.
Peter McGraw, a marketing and psychology professor at CU Boulder, talked about what makes things funny–a similar topic to David Thomas. Does this say something about me? :) This is actually the second time I have heard Peter speak, the first being Ignite Boulder. He posits that things are funny if they are both benign and a violation, like someone falling down the stairs but not being injured. This might help me with my goal of one day doing stand up comedy–which was a fairly well guarded secret until now.
Grant Blakeman, a designer and developer, had a simple message, but his talk was beautifully crafted. Through a mile-a-minute walkthrough of his day (which could be anyone's), he highlighted the lack of negative space aka free time in our lives. It was simple. It was beautiful.
Nathan Eagle, CEO of txteagle, spoke about the state of mobile devices in Africa and how in many ways, the western world is being leapfrogged by developing nations. I was somewhat aware of this, but one example in particular struck me: ditch diggers are organized by SMS. They look for texts to see where the job site is for the day. That is the very definition of ubiquitous to me.
Diane Israel, former professional triathelete, was simply heart-touching. I don't mean to go all after school special on you, but of all the talks, she made me feel the most. Some of the other speakers had cheesy little ice-breakers that I did my best to ignore. Diane was genuine from the moment she stepped on the stage. Her message of being embodied and accepting and loving yourself is something we could all hear more often–especially in such an incredibly unvarnished way.
Brad Feld, early stage investor and entrepreneur (and guy with cool shirts), had an unexpected topic. When I've heard Brad speak before, it has exclusively been about startups and venture capital. Last night, he got personal. He spoke candidly about his marriage and all of the things that can get in the way. His solution, or perhaps more accurately, his wife's solution? A quarterly week off the grid. No phones. No email. No contact with the outside world–just time, solitude, and each other. This is quite a lovely idea, and this idea may have been the most practical of the night. It's also the one I heard most discussed afterwards. My husband and I (married 6 years, together 14) have played with the idea of weekends off the grid. When we even have a few hours of this, we love it. It sounds so hard, but the rewards on even such a small scale are great. It's something we'd like to give a longer try.
My takeaway: The talks were fantastic, but my biggest takeaway of the night was that nights like this need to continue. In order for them to continue (and to spread), people like you and me have to make them happen. That's my TedxBoulder pledge–to do my part in bringing events like this to the community that I love.

Grouch is right. When things got slow, we had a place to go, a place where we could relax and use our imaginations. Blow off steam.
When the current moderator publicly criticized the former moderator, he pretty much lost the former regulars. That was mean and underhanded.
Then he continuously allowed trolls and other mean people on this chat, pretty much like the commenters in the other threads these days. Who wants to read continuous attacks aimed at others?
The kiss of death on this chat has been little to no imagination, along with no flexibility.
At least before, we could share interests and abilities, often disguised in storytelling. We weren't bored. Very few called the newspaper negative names. Your ratings were up.
I am of the "If it ain't broke, don't fix it," school. Someone just had to fix it, and ruined it.
Thank you for your perspective, but your revisionist history is completely off base.
