The Loyola Maroon VOL. XXIX, X-258 Loyola University, New Orleans, May 16, 1952 No. 23 'Ike' Wins Campus Elation; 43 Percent Vote by Gary Hymel Tops'KeeP 265 To 88; Russell Third General Dwight D. Eisenhower ran away with the Presidential election held Wednesday in the Quadrangle, amassing a total of 265 votes. Forty-three per cent of the students voted. The remaining candidates in the "president" category were far behind with an average of a dozen votes separating them. Runnerup Senator Estes Kefauver had 88, Senator Richard Russell had 51, Senator Robert Taft had 37, Genera] Douglas Mac Arthur had 28, and Averill Harriman finished last with 11 votes. The popular General, who is currently leading in the nation's race for congressional delegates, also swamped his opponents in the Republican nomination category. "Ike" totaled 369 votes in that election division, 304 more than Ohioan Taft's 65. Mac Arthur had 49 ballots. In the Democratic nominations television-conscious Kefauver scored with 297 votes while Georgian Russell had 133 and Harriman had 37. Students voted from nine to four o'clock in the one day election using two voting machines. Dentistry, Med Techs, Pharmacy, voted at Bobet hall while Arts and Sciences, Business Administration, Law and Music, balloted at Marquette hall. A total of 480 students voted in the election which was sponsored by the Maroon and the University's chapter of the National Federation of Catholic College Students. This number is 43 percent of the total university day school enrollment of 1158. Arts and Sciences led all colleges with a turnout of 62 percent of its students. Counted separately, the Med Techs ran second with 58 percent, Law School had 41 percent, Business Administration was third with 35 percent, Pharmacy had 32 percent, Dentistry had 18 percent and eight Music students voted to make the Music School's 18 percent. "We merely wanted to find out what the Loyola students think but we were more than pleased LOYOLA STUDENTS LINE UP before a voting machine in the Quadrangle to cast their vote for the next president of the United Statei.

These organizations jointly sponsored the project. Left, Martin Pfister, freshman, flips a coin to see who gets his vote. Ex-Communist For F. B. I. Is Forum Speaker The Loyola University Forum will feature Matt Cvetie speaking on the topic "I Was a Communist for the F. 8.1.", Monday, May 19, at 8:30 p.m., in the Grand Ballroom of the Jung Hotel. A Communist for seven years, Cvetie attended 2,000 Communist meetings ami sent 20,000 reports and names of 1000 Communist party members to the F. 8.1. The "Communist" entered his role with such authenticity that even his family and friends thought him a Communist. A Hollywood movie and Saturday Evening Poat articles featured him. "Matt Cvetic did a job few special agents of the F. 8.1, would have cared to do," Jack Leahy, former F. 8.1, agent, commented. "He did not have the protection given us. In addition to the danger, he had to forego his personal life and lose his identity," he said. Tickets for the last forum for this year can be bought at Jesuit church on Baronne Street, the Catholic Book Store, McCann's, Henri Petitin, Inct, and Loyola. Students are admitted on their student cards. It has just been learned that the Mayor will proclaim Monday, the day of the Cvetic Forum lecture, "Matt Cvetic Day" throughout the city. Cvetic will be made an honorary citizen of New Orleans and presented with the keys of the city. MATT CVETIC Toppino Received To SDX Fraternity Mickey Toppino, 1951 Maroon editor, now attending the University of New Mexico, was recently initiated into Sigma Delta Chi, professional journalism fraternity. SDX is the highest journalism iraternity in the United States and its roster includes such national figures as Bob Considine and Robert Ruark. Toppino, who will return to Loyola in September, is presently working on the Albuquerque Daily Journal and the tri-weekly university paper. Recently he was elected UNM delegate for the 1952 Regional Newman Club convention. He is also publicity chairman for the annual three-day fiesta held on the campus. The 1951 Maroon which he edited was awarded All-American honors by the Associated Collegiate Press. $4,500 Granted Loyola For Physics Research Headed By Prof. Pickar A $4,500 grant for research by the Loyola university department of physics was announced by the Rev. F. A. Benedetto, S. J., associate professor of physics and mathematics. The grant comes from the Frederick Gardner Cottrell foundation of the Research Corporation for partial support of the "solid state" research program being conducted at Loyola by Professor Paul B. Pickar, Fr. Benedetto stated. "Because of the high academic standard* in the department of physics and in view of the increasing number of requests by industry, graduate institutions and governmental agencies for our graduates, we are offering research facilities in the behalf that they will contribute significantly to higher standards at Loyola and to the research potential of our community, state and nation," Fr. Benedetto Before joining the physics staff at Loyola Dr. Pickar did research work on "selenium dry disk rectifiers" at Louisiana State university. He was a member of the Purdue university research team that I developed the "germanium diode" which contributed vitally to the success of Allied radar instru-, ments during World War 11, Fr. j Benedetto said. He added: "Although the university has given invaluable support in the inauguration of this new scientific program, its ultimate success in | great measure will depend on financial aid obtained through various philanthropic agencies devoted to the support of basic re- DR. PAUL PICKAR Alumni Children Have Cowboy Day King Cowboy will reign supreme Saturday, May 24, as the Alumni fete their offsprings in the Loyola gym western style. The children will be entertained with a real live pony ring, merrygo-'round, and full length movie. Breakfast Given For '52 Graduates Graduates of 1952 will be guests at a Communion breakfast given by the Alumni Association Sunday, May 18, following 8 o'clock Mass in Holy Name of Jesus Church. Breakfast will be served in the Loyola Cafeteria where the grads will be given the opportunity to meet the Alumni. The Very Rev. W. Patrick Donnelly, 5..1., will celebrate the Mass and Rev. Anthony C. O'Flynn, S.J., will deliver the sermon. Mr. Francis C. Doyle is chairman of the event. He will be assisted in arrangements by Charles S. Dittmann, vice-chairman.NFCCS Positions Open To Students Students are now eligible to run for junior and senior representatives for the National Federation of Catholic College Students. Ten students in each division may be nominated. The Student Council will elect the reps. Those desiring to run should give their names to Norris Fitzmorris or Ida Chirieleison, present senior and junior office holders, respectively. Dent Group Accepts Fifteen New Members C.

Energy Policy Scenarios to 2050
4.3. Scenario 3: Lion
4.3.1. Global Story
Gross Domestic Product
This scenario produced the most optimistic estimates in many respects, especially in the development of the global economy. In Asia, the high growth rates of today continue with the combination of significant government engagement and high degrees of cooperation and integration. In Africa, these conditions help with technology transfer and technology leapfrogging, as well as financing. In Latin America, there is concern that active government engagement leaves insufficient room for private enterprise, both domestic and foreign, which can bring managerial and technical improvements to the region and, therefore, an increase in economic efficiency. This effect is felt more intensely in the later period.
Demographic growth continues at stable rates in Asia and is somewhat higher initially in North America. In Africa and Latin America, population growth rates decline after the initial period due to achieving higher GDP/capita ratios, therefore improved standards of living.
Energy Intensity
In this scenario energy intensity declines worldwide. As population growth stabilises in Latin America and declines in Africa, and standards of living improve, energy efficiency gains take place and, despite new energy demand, lead to lower energy intensity. In Asia and Europe, a large number of government initiatives leads to increases in energy efficiency and lower energy intensity. Canada and Mexico expect improvements to the levels already seen in the United States where the degree of improvement is expected to continue.
The model indicates energy intensities decreasing by almost 25% by 2020, nearly 40% by 2035, and close to 50% by 2050, compared with today. These are significant improvements over the projections in the Leopard and Elephant scenarios (see Figure 4.1 ).
Energy Mix
The mix of energy sources, which became more diverse under government support in the Elephant scenario, diversifies further with global cooperation and integration. The effects are felt in Africa after the initial period (2035). In Asia, the curbing of energy demand and a shift from fossil fuels to renewable and nuclear energies is primarily responsible for improvements in the energy mix. In Latin America, government actions support oil, gas, biomass, and hydroelectric shares in the first two periods (2020 and 2035) and only later, with increased scarcities of oil and gas, does the mix change (after 2035).
There are dramatic improvements over the previous two scenarios. After initial increases, there are decreases in all regions.
The mathematical model suggests that in this scenario primary energy (modern) production increases by over 30% in 2020, between 64-70% by 2035, and nearly 100% by 2050. This is higher than with government engagement alone, mostly because international and regional cooperation and integration leads to more economic growth (see Figure 4-2 ).
Greenhouse Gases
A strong international framework results in significant decreases in greenhouse gas emissions. Emissions rates in this scenario initially increase in Asia, Africa, and Latin America (more oil and gas) and then decline after 2035. In Latin America, coal substitutes for hydropower initially. The rates decline in Europe and are mixed in North America, being higher in Canada, lower in Mexico, and stable in the United States, the dominant player in the region. The introduction of significant renewable and nuclear energies in Asia before 2035 leads to a reduction in emissions there.
The model shows this scenario with slightly higher CO2 emissions earlier, increasing by around 30% by 2020, before decreasing relative to other scenarios and being almost 35% higher in 2035 and in 2050, compared with 27.6 Gtonne in 2005 (see Figure 4-3 ).
Supply-Demand Tension
There is less tension for oil in this scenario, especially late in the period toward 2050. This is because of decreasing oil availability, more use of renewable energy, and falling demand from the transport sector toward the end of the period (2050) in Africa. North America and Asia see a movement toward non-conventional oil late in the period. Latin America sees scarcities late in the period, as new discoveries cannot keep up with demand.
Tension increases in Asia, Latin America, and Africa due to energy demand growth, although it eases in Latin America and later in Asia as supply systems begin to catch up with demand. Canada and Mexico have similar views, although the United States sees demand and tension decreasing (stable markets and supplies).
Africa, Asia, and North America (United States) show increases due to growth in energy demand. This is partly due to CTL technology supplying transport fuels, although decreases in tension occur later in the period as nuclear and renewable power become more pronounced. Coal is abundant and meets demand (i.e., no tension) in Latin America. Europe sees coal losing importance throughout the period despite the expected development of carbon capture and storage technologies.
Nuclear Power.
There is a nuclear power resurgence with the drivers being GDP growth, government incentives to reduce carbon emissions and high cooperation among limited suppliers.
Renewable Energies.
As in the other scenarios but more so, renewable energy grows substantially in this scenario, tripling in Europe by 2050. Thus, the range of renewable resources is in continual tension. A combination of government incentives, increased cooperation, and environmental concerns provide the drivers. Europe sees a 21% share for this scenario in 2050 in contrast to the much higher targets set by some governments, but this share could be reached sooner. Hydropower and biomass are likely to have increased tension by the end of the period in Latin America and in Africa, due to the use of scarce agricultural land for food crops.
Non-commercial Energy.
Not an issue in North America and Europe, it decreases in significance and tension in Asia and is neutral in Latin America as governments provide incentives for the expansion of commercial fuels. In Africa, the introduction of new alternative technologies now eases tension from 2035.
4.3.2. Winners, Losers, and Dilemmas
Because this scenario envisages both high government engagement and international cooperation and integration, all 3 A's benefit, especially access to energy for the poor and less developed areas. Regional carbon emissions control regimes are more likely to be linked to a global method which sets a carbon value high enough to address greenhouse gas emissions but low enough to avoid undue impact on the growth potential of different regions. This scenario thus optimises the possibilities for the revitalisation of nuclear power, as well as for the introduction of large amounts of renewable energy, especially biomass and biofuels, wind, and solar (photovoltaic and thermal).
It is not clear if there are any losers in this scenario, as governments and industry are believed to be capable, when working together, to solve the problems of energy supply and environmental concerns. However, this scenario creates a dilemma almost unique to it: as things begin to work effectively on a regional scale, issues will then be raised over how to transition this cooperation from a regional to a global scale and manage the result. If the world is to have a sustainable energy future, international cooperative schemes on an unprecedented scale (e.g., on the rules of energy trade in the WTO) will likely have to devised and enforced.

Fire sends Sydney CBD into gridlock
Frustrated drivers spent up to two hours stuck in traffic after road closures due to a fire in Sydney's CBD.

The fire that ripped through a 26-storey building in Bathurst Street in Sydney's CBD has now been extinguished, authorities have confirmed.
The fire, which is believed to have been caused by an electrical fault, caused major traffic delays throughout the day as several roads were closed. Two eastbound lanes on Bathurst Street remain closed.
At 5pm the fire was completely extinguished. However, four fire crews have remained at the scene ventilating the building, Fire and Rescue NSW, Ian Krimmer said.

Peak hour commuters faced heavy traffic when leaving the city tonight, a spokeswoman from the Traffic Management Centre said.
More than 100 firefighters were called to the old Sydney Water Board site at 115 Bathurst Street at 10am this morning to find a serious fire in the building that was under demolition. The fire has been contained, but will take "several hours" to be extinguished, a spokesman from NSW Fire and Rescue said.
At 4:15pm, traffic was easing in the CBD but bus delays of up to 15 minutes were expected. All bar one lane of Bathurst Street had been reopened.

Earlier, traffic authorities were saying commuters could use bus tickets on Sydney Trains. As of 4pm, this service was no longer available.
NSW Fire and Rescue Commissioner Greg Mullins said there was no effect on train services at this stage but previous road closures were having a "huge effect" on traffic in the CBD.
He urged motorists to stay out of the city if possible.
The fire was so intense that thermal imaging cameras initially did not work for crews as they attempted to extinguish the blaze.
NSW Fire and Rescue crews, who were called from 20 stations across the city, emerged from the 26-storey building completely covered in black soot.
Authorities were monitoring the amount of time firefighters were spending inside the building, he said.

Asbestos had been detected inside and firefighters were being decontaminated once they emerged.
Mr Mullins said the smoke was not toxic and surrounding buildings had not been evacuated and at 3pm parts of Bathurst Street was reopened.
About 25 construction workers were inside the building when the automatic fire alarms were activated.
All of the workers have been safely evacuated.
The blaze was contained just before 1pm, but had not been extinguished. At 3pm, a spokesman for NSW Fire and Rescue said it would be "several hours" before the blaze was completely extinguished.
Superintendent Peter Stathis, from Fire and Rescue NSW, said the blaze was believed to have started in an electricity substation in the building, which adjoins a heritage-listed art deco building on Pitt Street.
He said the buildings were fed by three substations and, because of the age of the buildings, fire crews initially experienced problems isolating the power.
"The ground floor area has partially collapsed into the level one basement," he said.
He said water from the firefight had not penetrated into the city rail loop or into the Cross City Tunnel, located below the building.
The building is being demolished. Chinese company Greenland Group has lodged plans to build a $600 million apartment building on the site, which is being billed as the tallest residential block in Sydney.
Earlier, Mr Mullins said the cause of the blaze was not clear.
"We don't know at this stage whether it may have been a result of demolition work, it may have been an electrical fault. We'll have to work that out once the fire has been extinguished and investigators have moved in," he said.
He said the State Rail Fire Service had also been called to monitor rails tunnels below the fire site.
"One of our concerns is water perhaps going into the Town Hall rail tunnels below us. That could cause electrical problems if that occurs," he said.

Why you should read Flip the Funnel
Companies traditionally use the mass media to market their products and services, spending much of their budgets on hit-or-miss communications. They hope their messages will somehow penetrate the media din and reach a sufficient number of receptive prospects who will go out and buy their goods. Without a strategy for retaining clients, firms repeat this expensive process again and again. Marketing consultant Joseph Jaffe says this is completely backward. Instead, companies should focus on enhancing the experiences of their existing clients, converting them into engaged, enthusiastic advocates who will provide powerful, credible word-of-mouth advertising. Although many of Jaffe's ideas are a bit commonplace – his general hypothesis outlines how customer retention is more advantageous than customer acquisition – getAbstract finds that his book presents a logical, cogent case, backed up by many colorful examples. Despite the book's repetition and visually messy layout, marketing executives are sure to benefit from its thoughtful, lively dissection of traditional marketing.

Light Brown Apple Moth (LBAM)
Updated: 2/27/2009
Light Brown Apple Moth - San Mateo County Agricultural Commissioner's Office is asking residents within the county to help prevent the spread of this serious agricultural pest by not moving plants, flowers, fruits or vegetables out of the three-county quarantine area of San Mateo, San Francisco and Santa Cruz. Residents may move home-grown plants, flowers, fruits and vegetables within the three counties; however, plants and produce with small holes or leaf material with signs of feeding damage caused by caterpillars should not be moved. Green waste, such as plant clippings and leaves, should be placed in recycling containers or composted on site. Food bank organizations may accept and transport fruits and vegetables grown by homeowners without inspection as long as the product is distributed within San Mateo County, Santa Cruz County or San Francisco County. |
Light Brown Apple Moth |
The Light Brown Apple (LBAM) is a small moth, approximately 1/4 inch in length, and is generally tan with some darker markings. It is originally from Australia and has also infested New Zealand, New Caledonia, Hawaii and the British Isles. It feeds on such a wide variety of plants that it is considered a significant threat to the environment as well as to agricultural crops. |
Eradication Treatments in San Mateo County
The California Department of Food and Agriculture no longer plans to utilize aerial pheromone treatments as a tool to eradicate the light brown apple moth in the urban areas of northern San Mateo County. Instead, CDFA will be using an alternative eradication tool know as Sterile Insect Technique (SIT) in which large numbers of sterilized, infertile insects are released so that wild populations cannot reproduce. There is no risk of crop or landscape damage from the release of sterile adult moths because only the caterpillars feed on plants. Sterile moths are expected to be available for release in early 2009 on a limited basis.

Over the next century, Vancouver's greatest asset could become its worst enemy.
A new climate change report lists the city among the world's most at risk for losses from rising sea levels and flooding, ranking it 11th after cities such as New York, New Orleans and Mumbai.
In other words, if Vancouver were Superman, the Pacific Ocean would be the city's Kryptonite, intrinsic to its power yet capable of its ruin.
"We're at the point where this can't be ignored," B.C. geoscientist John Clague told the Sunday Province. "The only good news is that there is time." The report by the Organization for Economic Co-operation was published Tuesday in the journal Nature Climate Change.
Scientists examined 136 of the largest coastal cities in the world and concluded that, without adaptation, total annual losses from flooding could top $1 trillion by 2100.
While the report listed Vancouver among the 20 most at-risk cities in the world based on its amount of "exposed assets," it did not make the list when defence measures were taken into account. On that list, cities in developing countries took the top spots.
But that doesn't mean Vancouver and surrounding cities, where many of those exposed assets are located, can rest easy, said Clague, a professor at Simon Fraser University.
Local research suggests that as glaciers melt and the oceans warm, B.C. coastal waters could rise one metre over the next century.
That's enough to overtop dikes, as extreme weather — high tides, strong winds and torrential rainfall in winter, or hot weather that melts mountain snow rapidly in spring — becomes more common due to climate change.
In December, a report released by the provincial Ministry of Forests estimated dike improvements over the next 90 to 100 years could cost $9.5 billion.
"Who's going to pay for that?" asked Clague. "Municipalities don't have that kind of money."
If municipalities will struggle to find money to upgrade flood protection, Stan Van Keulen doesn't have a hope.
The longtime Surrey dairy farmer and president of the Mud Bay diking district has a small annual budget to maintain the dikes along the Serpentine and Nicomekl rivers in a 1,110-acre area crossed by Highway 99 and the Burlington Northern Railway. The tracks serve as the sea dike.
The district runs a taxation program among landowners to supplement funds received from the City of Surrey for dike maintenance. For capital projects, Van Keulen must "beg and borrow" to get the money he needs. He's been turned down many times.
The days between Christmas and New Year find the farmer patrolling the dikes during the winter's highest tides. Twice in the last 40 years, Van Keulen's land has been flooded, once when a dike broke and another when a storm surge overtopped it for about 30 minutes. Both times, the damage was extensive. Salt water ruined crops and the impacts were felt for at least three years after.
In normal years, however, the land is extremely productive.
So it was a surprise when Van Keulen learned the Mud Bay area was a place where "retreat" — buying out landowners and leaving the area to the sea — might be considered a better option than raising dikes.
The idea is contained in the Ministry of Forests report, which was prepared by a consulting firm and examined various options for protecting Metro Vancouver's shoreline reaches.
In all communities except Mud Bay, dike widening, breakwaters or flood proofing were considered better options than retreat.
For example, in West Vancouver, dike construction was recommended to protect older homes near Ambleside. The report said that in Kitsilano, a small dike would be the best option to protect lower areas, while in Crescent Beach the existing dike would need to be raised by about three metres. The report indicates dike widening may cost the same amount as buying out Mud Bay landowners, but it recommends "managed retreat" instead.
The blow is softened, however, with a caveat that retreat may not be reflective of the city's wishes.
Surrey utilities manager Jeff Arason agreed it is not the city's preference, adding that "by no means is the city actually endorsing retreat."
Still, Van Keulen said "the very notion" is disturbing. He believes a seawall dike across the bay from White Rock to Tsawwassen would protect the entire area from flooding, although he realizes there would likely be environmental concerns with such a project.
Environmental impact is one of many issues that must be dealt with as governments move to mitigate flood risk. In order to increase the height of a dike, its base must also be widened, impacting sensitive environmental areas.
A City of Surrey report from 2011 questions whether Fisheries Canada and the provincial Ministry of Environment will relax guidelines for dike work.
There are also issues when seawalls front homes and there is little room to widen them.
The Surrey report highlights other concerns too: The flood construction level, the required elevation for the floors of new homes, would need to be raised as much as 4.5 metres in some places. Older homes in low-lying areas could face problems with drainage, requiring improvements to sewage and water systems.
The Ministry of Forests report also notes difficulties moving forward. For example, dike elevation near Vancouver International Airport would result in the need to rebuild some maintenance roads since locating them on higher dikes would obstruct air traffic.
But while the challenges are many, there's also plenty of optimism that Metro Vancouver will rise to the threats presented by rising water.
Delta Mayor Lois Jackson remembers sitting in on a climate change workshop at a conference in Ottawa in 1999. It was her first year as mayor and she returned home filled with new ideas.
"I was roasted in the press for taking this wild and weird stance," she recalled with a chuckle.
In the decade since, climate change has become a major issue for Delta, and one that Jackson feels the city is "ahead on."
Delta deputy director of engineering Hugh Fraser said the city has a strategy for dealing with climate change, although it is "not all written down yet."
But that hasn't stopped council from moving ahead with studies, as well as establishing new protocols. Part of that has meant preventing new development in some areas, while requiring developers to raise dikes as part of their work.
Delta has also benefitted from a University of B.C. study by Dr. David Flanders, who produced ?computer visualizations of rising sea levels, illustrating the ways water will impact communities and modelling various flood protection scenarios.
"To me, the visualizations are the only way that you can tell the complete story of climate change and its impacts in a low-lying coastal community," he said in a news release about the project.
"In other words, seeing really is believing in this case."
In Richmond, the climate change plan is fully integrated into a detailed flood management strategy with budgeting for capital projects, said engineering director John Irving.
"This is a very manageable issue for us," he said. "To raise our dikes . . . will be a $200-300 million job, but when you think that it will protect billions of dollars in assets, and that we need to achieve that rise over decades, it's very do-able."
In Surrey, a climate change adaptation strategy will come before council in the fall, said Arason.
Vancouver, too, has a strategy, and bills itself as the first Canadian city to create one.
All Metro Vancouver municipalities have representatives on the Joint Program Committee on Flood Hazard Management, a board chaired by the Fraser Basin Council. The provincial government, First Nations and private sector stakeholders are also represented.
FBC executive director David Marshall said the council has been successful at securing federal funding for various scientific studies that can be used by all groups. They are in the process of working out a strategy for the future.
"I'm quite optimistic," he said.
FBC senior manager Jim Vanderwal said there are "tough conversations" that need to be had, especially around the subject of retreat and land purchases for dike improvements, but municipalities seem to be prepared to have them.
Provincial inspector of dikes Neil Peters said in an email that while the work can be spread over several decades, it is "crucial to complete technical studies and start planning now."
They said it wasn't possible.
Kiwifruit? Not in B.C.
But Macedonian immigrant George Petkov is proving them wrong, with an eight-acre Abbotsford farm that produced 45,000 pounds last year with more than double that expected this fall.
It's not the first time B.C. farmers have attempted to grow kiwis. In the 1980s the Ministry of Agriculture encouraged several farms on Vancouver Island. But while the plants were still young, a harsh spring frost killed many of them. That led to the conclusion, by some, that it simply couldn't be done.
But Petkov said kiwis thrive in mild climates, and once the plants go dormant for winter, can withstand temperatures down to -20 degrees. The biggest danger is in late spring, once the plants have begun growing, when frost can do major damage.
Due to climate change, that may be less of an issue than it was 30 years ago.
In Metro Vancouver and the Fraser Valley in 2020, there will be an average of 14 more frost-free days a year, according to the BC Climate Change Adaptation Assessment. By 2050, there will be 25.
Subtle changes to the B.C. climate will have a huge impact on the agricultural industry, said the report, which was completed in 2012.
Scientists believe both temperatures and rainfall in B.C. will increase, in addition to sea levels, spring snowmelt from the mountains, and variability.
It's that last one that causes report author Erica Crawford the most concern.
In farming, predictability is key for knowing when to plant, fertilize and harvest, she said. Extremes, such as heavy rainfall (and flooding) in spring and fall, and high heat (and droughts) in summer, can be incredibly damaging.
Pest management will also become a larger issue, with milder winters creating conditions that allow new insects to thrive.
"The past is no longer going to be a reliable guide," said Crawford. "This will make farming more complex."
It will make gardening more difficult as well. Salt Spring Island garden educator Linda Gilkeson said this year's spring heat wave fried many tender plants that weren't ready for hot weather. In the same way, in previous years early cold snaps killed plants that were not quite dormant.
"I think education and awareness is key to being able to adapt to this," she said.
On Vancouver Island, Bob and Verna Duncan have been adapting beautifully. When contacted by the Sunday Province, the couple was in the middle of making marmalade from oranges they grow themselves. Although they've been growing citrus for more than 25 years, it's getting easier as winters become milder.
"In the '60s and '70s, there used to be times when we could skate on local ponds," said Bob. "We can't do that anymore."
The couple also sells lemon and orange trees at their Fruit Trees and More nursery and expects demand will continue to increase as people become more aware of them.
As for Petkov, he too hopes to expand. His kiwis will be harvested around November, when the weather turns cold. They must then ripen in cold storage for four to six weeks. He sells them to B.C. school food programs, IGA and at farmers' markets.

Lady Gaga is on the mend! Speaking to fans outside her hotel in Brisbane in asked "How's your head by the way?" to which she replied "Thank you for asking, It's much better".
The singer took a bang to the head during her concert when a backing dancer tried to move a metal bar and it dropped down hard on her head.
She staggered off stage in Brisbane for a short time, but returned announcing that even though she may have concussion she'll finish the gig.
This isn't the first time this has happened in the last few days.
Justin Bieber set the precedent recently, suffering a concussion after walking into a glass door while leaving the stage in Paris. He managed to pass out cold afterwards but is ok.
And if its true everything happens in three's then perhaps Gaga wouldn't mind if Madonna has a mishap after she played a mash-up of her song Express Yourself into Gaga's similar sounding Born this Way, supposedly to taunt her rival.
Concussion or not, Gaga had her own dig back at her by ending her Born This Way performance singing, "she's not me" at the end.

Emma + Edwin – Saint Austin Catholic Church
This time we were back at Saint Austin Catholic Church with Emma and Edwin remember we featured Quoc and Michelle at Saint Austin last year. There is always a benefit to shooting at a familiar location. You feel like you've been there before and learned all the lessons on capturing the best footage.
However there is always a big challenge in keeping things fresh. Our ultimate goal is to create a unique film for every bride so with this highlight we decided to tell the wedding story of Emma. A bride blessed by her family as she begins her journey down the path of holy matrimony. She gets ready for her handsome prince Edwin who eagerly awaits her at St Austin Catholic Church with his band of brothers. They share their vows, go out to the park for a good time and share their evening dancing away with their friends and family. Being Catholics of Indian decent we wanted to also capture some elements of the Indian culture hence the dressing sequences of Emma putting on her Sari.
The choice of songs was a pure coincidence although Emma is definitely Edwin's Desi girl. It was played at the reception and the party went wild. Here we use that evening dance to give you a sense of how much fun Emma and Edwin had at their wedding. Like most of the couples we create wedding films for, Emma and Edwin felt like family and as usual we pulled all the stops to make sure they could remember this day completely.

We rediscovered this book at our house today. The 20th Century Children's Book Treasury, selected by Janet Schulman, was given to me almost seven years ago when my son was born, but when my youngest pulled it from the depths of the playroom today, she literally squealed with delight at the selection of stories she found.
Of course, I had read to her from this book before, but at 4 years old, she recognized tales from story time at school and other stories that we had never read, but that included her favorite characters. She was thrilled to discover that these stories were in our little library.
"You mean, we have Where the Wild Things Are?" she asked in disbelief. "Stellaluna! We read that at school!"
"And look, Arthur … and Max and Ruby!"
The book includes 44 stories like the ones mentioned above, as well as things like "Make Way for Ducklings," "Chicka Chicka Boom Boom," "Curious George" and "Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day." It also includes all the illustrations.
It is a great gift because it enables you to share so many stories with a little one, and parents get to revisit their childhood favorites. I know what we'll be reading at bedtime the next few nights.
Is there a book that you think makes a great gift?

1.67M is closer to 5'6''.
Tilting of the head makes some people look better, but not others. For GYY, I think it makes her look extra cute and inviting.

ATLANTA, GA -- The Georgia Department of Labor announced Thursday via press release that Georgia's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate increased to 9.3 percent in July, up three-tenths of a percentage point from 9.0 percent in June. The jobless rate was 10 percent in July a year ago.
State Labor Commissioner Mark Butler says that "one of the main reasons for the increase in the unemployment rate was a large number of temporary layoffs in manufacturing but many of those people have already gone back to work."
There were 56,540 first-time claims for unemployment insurance benefits in July, up 7,661, or 15.7 percent, from June, with temporary manufacturing layoffs accounting for most of the increase. However, initial claims declined over the year, dropping by 5,030, or 8.2 percent, from 61,570 in July 2011.
The state's labor force increased by 7,731 new jobseekers to 4,765,132 in July, up from 4,757,401 in June. Georgia's labor force has increased 14 of the past 15 months.

Not at all. Sundance Square offers more than 5,400 parking spots, and only two hundred were removed due to the new construction. And think about what we're gaining: a beautiful new plaza for downtown Fort Worth!
What about Monthly Parking Options?
Yes. You can pay for an entire month of parking and get unlimited "in and out" privileges for that month. You'll have either a reserved or non-reserved parking space, and gain access to the garage with a special card. For surface lots, you'll display a hangtag indicating that you've paid for the month. Monthly parking fees are billed in advance on the first of the month, with payment required by the 15th. For information and rates, please call Sundance Square Parking Services at 817-390-8856.

It is the method the parents manage circumstances like these that creates the main difference.
The majority of the parents attempt to spend more time with their children. Yet there are parents that are not able to spend time using youngsters. Maybe they're hectic using their operate as well as these are out of the family. While parents are occupied using their perform, they will think about delivering their young children to getting on schools.

Yet, isn't the scene entirely definitely worth the ascend? Exactly the same idea is true to parenting teenagers. You just need to tactic all of them the correct way, and when they are available by helping cover their flying colors they"ll make you consequently happy.
The way in which men and women raise up youngsters is a lot distinctive from that relating to the early times.

Summary (Masterplots, Fourth Edition)
Grangosier and Gargamelle are expecting a child. During the eleventh month of her pregnancy, Gargamelle eats too many tripes and then plays tag on the green. That afternoon, in a green meadow, Gargantua is born from his mother's left ear. Gargantua is a prodigy and, with his first breath, he begins to clamor for drink. To supply him with milk, 17,913 cows are needed. Tailors use nine hundred ells of linen to make his shirt and 1,105 ells of white broadcloth to make his breeches. Eleven hundred cowhides are used for the soles of his shoes.
At first, Gargantua's education is in the hands of two masters of the old school, Holofernes and Joberlin Bride. When Grangosier observes that his son is making no progress, however, he sends him to Paris to study with Ponocrates. Aside from some mishaps, as when he takes the bells from the tower of Notre Dame to tie around his horse's neck, Gargantua does much better with his studies in Paris.
Back home, a dispute arises. The bakers of Lerne refuse to sell cakes to the shepherds of Grangosier. In the quarrel, a shepherd fells a baker, and King Picrochole of Lerne invades the country. Grangosier bakes cartloads of cakes to appease Picrochole, but to no avail, for no one dares oppose Picrochole except doughty Friar John of the Funnels. Finally, Grangosier asks Gargantua to come to his aid. Gargantua fights valiantly. Cannonballs seem to him as grape seeds, and when he combs his hair, cannonballs drop...

Message boards are still heating up in reference to local anglers' ongoing battle about how to catch a tarpon. While it has never taken much in the last 20-plus years to get an argument going in this venue, the protest on the beach during the Professional Tarpon Tournament Series championship served as a boiling point this year.

BY LIZA STROUT - The gap between hospitality manager at a major hotel and project manager for a construction company may seem like a wide one, but it is one that Dave Borza has bridged for most of his working life.
"My dad was a contractor, and I've tinkered around with construction and handyman jobs for most of my life," Dave said. "My parents also owned three restaurants at one time, and I worked in them. My dad had a lot of projects that he worked on. There was the contracting business, the restaurants and a computer learning center."

The SEC remains the strongest football conference in the country. It remains the most challenging test of a good team's resolve and resiliency over a grueling three-month stretch.
