Sorry but I am not buying Mike's story.
I still say he is A. Yes we saw A creeping around Mike's room at the end but there is something off with Mike.
He may have "explained" to Aria why he had Mona's blood but he did not tell her why he was at the school last week stealing blood.
I felt bad for Hannah, she was working her butt off and yes while she dead a few odd moves, she was working it and seems to be a good dancer. I wonder if Emily will actually enter the pagent and try to win the money for Hannah.
I like Ezra but I like the idea of Andrew and Aria.
I also like Toby but have not liked him since he became a cop and so I would be fine if Spencer got together with Johnny, but sadly sounds like he is leaving town.
I am glad that Em ending things with Talia.
I can not stand Welch or Pat. I really hope they are both not on the show long.
Please Boden come back soon.
Beth is a trouble maker too and I am sure Pat (even though he is a jerk) is not the only one to blame for his divorce.
I love what Severide said to Pat when he tried to get him to bad mouth Casey. I knew that Pat would not like it and would end up punishing Casey about the bowling alley call. I liked that Severide and Casey were able to joke around when they were cleaning the windows.
I liked the Brett storyline, there is nothing wrong with her taking on a Big Sister role with Celia.
The kids with Hermann are from the hockey team he coaches.

Another great episode.
The case of the week was interesting and good. Another different form of stalking.
However once again the best friend was involved, while Lucy was not the stalker, she did lead Isobel to the Cult. It was nice to see that Lucy felt remorse and guilt when Isobel was taken. I am glad that it all worked out. I too got a Following vibe. I did stop watching The Following after Season 1, but I liked the homage to the show.
First I thought Ray was going to show up at Jack's take him and then Amanda would show up and think he flaked on Ethan. Then I thought Janice would be attacked, it was kind of creepy that Ben was following her and did not call her name as to not freak her out. Then when Amanda walked to the car alone, I knew it was going to be her that Ray attacked first. I hope she does not die. However it is not looking good for her.
I have been saying for weeks not that Perry made a mistake when he let Ray out and he sure seems to be think that now. I do not feel sorry for Perry at all. I still say Ray will kill him.
It was funny seeing Ben and Janice both thinking that Beth and Jack are hooking up.
I am sure it will be just a matter of time before that does happen.
Beth did see herself in Isobel and I liked that she went to see her.

I knew the lady was not a nurse, it is too bad it took them that long to figure it out.
I was kind of hoping that the couple who's wife was accidently show were not going to want their baby and that Jackson and April would adopt her. However the couple were so happy so I got over that quickly.
Amelia was mean to Stephanie. I think Amelia is having doubts about Dr. Herman's surgery.
It looks like they are leaning towards the Owen and Amelia pairing.
I like that Maggie offered to watch Zola and Bailey.
It looks like Webber and Catherine will get back together.
I have never been a fan of Catherine's but I loved the way she was with April.
The whole scene with April giving birth, her holding their son and them saying goodbye to the baby was heartbreaking.
I really expected Mer was going to see Derek, but by the previews she did not go to see him. I cannot see Mer wanting to get away and just stay at a hotel for a dew days alone, if she did want some time to herself I can see her being honest about it. I have to know why she lied!
This episode was just okay.
I think the guy whipped himself because he was punishing himself as he knew the deal was bad.
I do not think the guy will rate out Liz, I think he will blame Tom.
I did not see that coming.
I was sure that it was Bonnie they were setting up NOT Nate. I am shocked.
Bonnie knows that Connor, Michaela, Wes and Laurel are involved and it will only be a matter of time before she opens her mouth. That is not good.
How on earth did Annalise clean the whole house and not leave any traces behind?!? Has she cleaned up crime scenes before?
We will be in for one wild ride for the last 2 episodes.
I have known for a long time that Frank is not a lawyer. He is the fixer and does the dirty work.

It is always nice to see Jamie with a bigger storyline this week, even though Eddie was the one more featured in the storyline. It will only be a matter of time before they hook up again.
Eddie was wrong when she told off Andy, but we see later that she was taking the shooting very hard, which was evident when she was not able to go back to work.
I think that Donny has it in his contract that he has to be in each episode for a certain amount of time, so I was not surprised when Danny and Baez showed up to protect Vincent. The one thing that bugged was the conclusion of the mob story, the mob guys shot up the court house and then all the sudden then just decide to nicely follow Danny and Baez to the airport? A car chase scene would have been better but I know they were running out of time, but it seems silly.
I like David Ramsey and enjoy him as Diggle on Arrow BUT I do not like Mayor Poole.
I too like Erin and Alex and think they would make a good couple.

Danny's back, at least for this week.
I really liked this episode.
Danny was super funny with Grace, the boy that likes her and the texts situation.
I like that he did not approach her at the Gelato place and I liked the ending when Grace and Danny both confessed to the secrets they were keeping.
The barbecue scene was great, I did wonder where Leilani was and why Danny was not with his girlfriend, even though she did text him to thank for flowers he sent.
I do agree with Danny, I think butter in coffee would be gross. I wonder if Alex drinks his coffee that way, he did not make a face when he drank it.
I am the commander now...LOL I knew it was the same actor that was in Captain Phillips, even though I have not seen the movie.
I enjoyed this episode.
I like getting away from the Kai storyline.
Mystic Falls is down 2 more people.
I did not see the twist coming that Jeremy was leaving town to hunt Vampires and will not be going to art school like Elena thinks he is.
I loved all the interactions between Liz and Damon. I laughed out loud when Damon was helping her solve the cold cases. I also like that she was able to solve what happened the night Grayson and Miranda died. It gave her closure even though she wished it was not just an accident due to the rain and not something supernatural.
I knew she was going to die as soon as she told Damon to call Caroline and tell her that the surprise would have to wait until tomorrow. Sadly tomorrow never came for Liz.
The scene at the end with Stefan, Caroline, Damon, Elena and Matt was great. Reminded me of the old Vampire Diaries days.
I still am not liking Enzo's storyline, was he trying to see if Sarah was a vampire when he ran over Matt???
I am still not sure I like the idea of Stefan and Caroline together.
I knew that the Blacklist should have remained on Mondays. Also I am happy that Allegiance is doing worse that Parenthood.

A field of grey, motionless kangaroos staring down a bicyclist in a recent YouTube video is not evidence of marsupial zombies, scientists say.
The discovery of a genetically distinct group of kangaroos sheds light on how they survived aeons of climate-induced changes to their grassland home.
Zookeepers say they have successfully fostered an orphaned tree kangaroo with a surrogate wallaby.
President Obama, Bill Gates, Oprah Winfrey and kangaroos have at least one thing in common: they're all left-handed.
Meet the creatures with (we think) the most amazing things attached to their bodies.
Researchers think the three wallaroos may be descendents of a male albino brought to Bathurst by philanthropist Sir Edward Hallstrom 40 years ago.
The mysterious marsupial roamed Australia more than 40,000 years ago.
Stiff backs and strong joints indicate giant kangaroos may have been hop-less.

Commercial Property/Connecticut; 'It's a Tenant's Market' for Offices in Fairfield County
By ELEANOR CHARLES
Published: November 24, 2002
OFFICE vacancy rates in Fairfield County, which were 6 or 7 percent in 2000, have now climbed well into double digits for the county as a whole. While vacancies have passed 20 percent in some pockets of Fairfield, the Greenwich office leasing market continues strong. Depending on which brokerage firm's statistics are used, office vacancy rates for the county over all are 16 percent or 17.9 percent.
According to figures compiled by CB Richard Ellis, of 548 office buildings countywide containing a total of almost 45.3 million square feet, 5.2 million square feet are available on direct leases and 2.8 million are subleases from downsized companies.
''It's been as slow as I've seen it in 27 years,'' said Ed Tonnessen, an executive vice president at Albert B. Ashforth in Stamford. ''It's a tenant's market, much softer than a couple of years ago. Prices have definitely fallen.'' Still, Mr. Tonnessen sees a glimmer of light in the darkness. ''I'm sensing an uptick in demand,'' he said.
The CB Richard Ellis statistics show that Stamford and Greenwich have a combined vacancy rate of 14 percent and that the sector with the lowest rate, 12.4 percent, is Eastern Fairfield, consisting of Bridgeport, Fairfield, Shelton, Stratford and Trumbull. Vacancies in Central Fairfield -- Darien, New Canaan, Norwalk, Westport and Wilton -- are up to 21 percent, and the rate is 20 percent in Upper Fairfield, which covers Brookfield, Danbury, Newtown and Ridgefield.
These figures are compatible with numbers from other brokerages, which vary slightly up or down, and they indicate what Kenneth M. Krasnow, senior managing director of the New York metropolitan region for Cushman & Wakefield, observed is ''an increasingly fragmented market within the county,'' he said. ''Greenwich is still red hot, off the charts,'' although brokerage figures show a vacancy rate of about 12 percent. He added, ''Stamford is fairly quiet, concentrating on negotiations for 5,000 to 15,000 square feet'' -- relatively small leases.
''Eastern Fairfield, particularly Shelton, has been the most stable and active area of the county because of its affordable housing and easy commute,'' compared with commuting to Greenwich or Stamford, he said.
Some companies have been taking space in Shelton near employees who live there, creating a split between Lower Fairfield, where the executives live and have company headquarters, and Eastern Fairfield, site of satellite offices and lower-level personnel who cannot afford Lower Fairfield. ''Eastern Fairfield is a desirable place to do business,'' said Dean J. Shapiro, executive director of the Stamford office of Insignia/ESG, ''but not for corporate headquarters.''
Equity Office, the largest property owner in the county, with more than 1.8 million square feet of office space, includes a 159,853 square foot building in Shelton among its eight buildings. The rest are in Stamford, most built by the F. D. Rich Company during Stamford's epic urban renewal 20 to 30 years ago.
LIKE other owners, Equity Office is hunkering down. ''To compete you have to offer two to four months free rent on perhaps a five-year term,'' said Thomas Q. Baake, senior vice president of Equity Office for the New York region. ''Rent reductions from the mid-$40's a square foot in 2000 to the high $30's today represent a 10 to 15 percent drop.'' Asking rents in Norwalk, which has the highest vacancy rate, 24.3 percent, and other towns in the central and northern sectors have dropped from the low $30's to the high $20's.
As for occupied buildings for sale, he continued, asking prices ''are at an all-time high.'' He added, You've got money chasing yield, leveraged up with cheap debt, but that's not a game we're willing to play.'' While buildings have been selling briskly, largely to private investor groups disenchanted with Wall Street, his company has not been buying, because prices are so steep.
W&M Properties, like Office Equity, does not buy high. ''We haven't found any offices we should be pursuing at this time,'' said Anthony E. Malkin, president of W&M. ''Our entry point has been lower than prices available today.'' His company is runner-up to Equity Office in volume, owning 1.5 million square feet of offices in Fairfield County, 1.2 million of them in Stamford. Rents are in the mid-$30's, flat from a year ago.
On Nov. 5, W&M closed on the $33 million sale of its Soundview Plaza, a 180,000-square-foot Stamford office building built in 1984 at a cost of $25.2 million by Bruce Warwick, a former partner. The buyer is Mack-Cali, a publicly traded real estate investment trust.
The building is 94 percent leased by a hedge fund, a sports marketing firm, a capital management company and William Pitt Real Estate, among others. Tenants have a cafeteria on the premises in addition to free, exclusive use of an on-site fitness center, conference center, structured parking and shuttle service to the train station.
Proceeds from the sale will be used for property purchases under Section 1031 of the federal tax code, which allows a taxable gain to be deferred provided a replacement property is identified within 45 days of closing and the new purchase is completed within 100 days. ''We will not be buying in Fairfield County,'' Mr. Malkin said. ''We are looking at San Francisco.''

To be in Brazil during the World Cup of futbol (soccer) is to see both a massive outpouring of national pride and mass marketing of the very first order. Museums will change their opening hours and churches will change the times they offer mass on any day that Brazil plays. Brazil will host the World Cup 2014. The government is already planning for ways to sweep the streets of beggars and hide the shanty towns (favelas) behind walls, not so they won't be seen but so the favelas and beggar residents cannot interfere with the tourism and commerce of the tournament.
I am here to talk with NGOs about U.S. climate change policy and more specifically the U.S. financial reform legislation that will have much to do with how carbon emissions are traded in commodity futures markets if and when they are established. Given the current diplomatic stalemate in climate change negotiations, it would be idle to suggest that countries must compete more fiercely to reduce their greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions than they compete to win the World Cup. Certainly the stakes of losing the GHG Games are immeasurably higher than the national disappointment or even disgust when its team is ousted but where is that commercial GHG hook that will have "Beat Climate Change!" T-shirts outselling "Go Brazil" T-shirts?
Granted, the U.S. climate change story is not a happy one or one easy sell to Brazilian groups. Unhappily I explain that our most immediate challenge is not the members of the U.S. Congress who don't believe that climate change is happening or that it is not serious enough to warrant a massive change in U.S. technology and investment policy. Our most immediate problems are the environmental organizations who believe that carbon markets will induce investment decisions to reduce GHGs.
Earlier this month, IATP published a critique of an International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) proposal that would finance GHG reductions by selling bonds to developing countries. The bond terms would be defined and administered by a new International Green Bond Board that would displace the Clean Development Mechanism of the Kyoto Protocol. The collateral for bond repayment would be developing country carbon credits that would be sold and resold in U.S. and EU markets. When I explained that several U.S. environmental organizations worked closely with IETA the Brazilian NGOs weren't as shocked as I had been when I listened to IETA and the big enviros sing the same tune in Copenhagen.
They said that Brazilian conservation organizations, desperate for funds to fight the destruction of the Amazon by agribusiness, forestry and mining firms, had become believers that selling carbon offset credits to U.S. and EU businesses would stop the destruction of the Amazon. Indeed, as I had read in No Rain in the Amazon, some of the former deforesters were planting fast-growing eucalyptus trees to claim carbon offset credits from a space that once had been home to an immense wealth of biodiversity and climate stabilization. U.S. environmental groups, such as the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), had sold Brazilian conservation groups on carbon markets in such market conditions.
If Wall Street and other financial centers remain fundamentally unreformed, they will create extreme price volatility in carbon markets, as surely as they did in agricultural and energy markets in 2006–2008. IETA has argued that there should be no limits on the number of carbon derivatives, based on the value of the carbon credits, that some draft U.S. legislation proposes to give away for free to the biggest polluters. Furthermore, IETA opposes any attempt to reduce unregulated trading in the over-the-counter markets.
IATP, with the Commodity Markets Oversight Coalition (CMOC) and Americans for Financial Reform (AFR), is fighting to put binding limits on derivatives trading and allow OTC trading only for commodity traders, such as municipal power companies, for whom the greater cost of trading on public and regulated exchanges impedes their ability to provide energy to all consumers. As Wall Street rains campaign contributions on New Democrats to help the Republican Party defeat reform, we fear that if real reform is defeated, the next bill to be bought and paid for by industry will be climate change legislation. Then the only thing for which we will be able to cheer is the World Cup—if it isn't disrupted by drought, flash floods and more frequent and violent weather.

As combined economic entities, members of the International Emissions Trading Association (IETA) exceed the size of most governments. So, when IETA made a new financing proposal just prior to last week's UN global climate talks in Bonn, attention was paid.
IETA's 170 transnational financial, law, energy and manufacturing firms are aggressively pushing for a global system for trading carbon emission credits and their financial derivatives. Their latest proposal, "green sectoral bonds," are being sold as the only option for developing countries to access financing for projects that reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Like conventional bonds, the green sectoral bonds would allow developing countries to borrow money from private investors to meet greenhouse gas reduction targets—the principle to be paid back with interest over time. The proposal represents a major shift in climate finance discussions.
As IATP's Steve Suppan writes in a new analysis of the IETA proposal, "If implemented, the proposal would transform climate finance from a public fiduciary duty primarily funded by developed countries to a new source of developing country debt to private creditors and of profits for IETA members."

William Neuman and Andrew Pollack of the New York Times dug deeper earlier this week into the growing story of Roundup-resistant weeds and the chaos this is causing within the agriculture community. The Times story quotes Andrew Wargo III, the president of the Arkansas Association of Conservation Districts as saying, "It is the single largest threat to production agriculture that we have ever seen." And Tennessee farmer Eddie Anderson says, "We're back to where we were 20 years ago. We're trying to find out what works."
Why is growing resistance to Roundup in weeds such a big deal? Roundup Ready genetically engineered crops are one of the linchpins of conventional agriculture. Roundup Ready crops allow farmers to douse their crop with Roundup to kill the weeds, while the crop survives. Currently, more than 80 percent of corn, soybeans and cotton grown in the U.S. are genetically engineered, and most are Roundup Ready.
As we wrote last month, the Natonal Research Council's assessment on the impact of GE crops on farmers pointed to nine species of weeds that have been identified in the U.S. as being resistant to Roundup. As Roundup loses its effectiveness, other—more toxic—herbicides will likely take its place.
But the Times story also points out how the loss of Roundup affects no-till farming, at least the way corn farmers practice it. No-till has been touted as more environmentally friendly by curbing erosion and runoff of fertilizers and pesticides. It also has been hyped as an important part of a prospective carbon market. By not tilling, carbon is sequestering in the soil, and hence could become an additional income stream for farmers as part of a carbon-offset system. But as the Times points out, with the decline in Roundup's effectiveness, commodity crop no-till may no longer be practical.
What might make more sense? A new study by researchers out of Iowa State found that farmers using a two-crop rotation (corn and soybeans) could cut their fossil fuel use in half by switching to a four-crop rotation (adding oats and alfalfa)—and they could make the same amount of money.
The emerging challenges of Roundup-resistant weeds point out once again why climate change policy needs to get it right on agriculture.

Last week, the Feria del Agua—a water festival and fair—marked the 10th anniversary of the water wars that thwarted attempts to privatize water services in Cochabamba, Bolivia. Celebrations were kicked off April 15 with a parade from downtown Cochabamba to the Complejo Fabril (home of the Cochabamba Federation of Workers).
Nationally, the water wars not only paved the way for blocking privatization attempts of other natural resources in Bolivia, but also helped change the balance of power there, leading to the successful election of its first indigenous president. Globally, the Bolivian water wars called attention to attempts to privatize water in Asia, Africa and elsewhere in Latin America. In their wake, it became increasingly acceptable to claim water as a basic right.
In 2001, IATP used the Bolivian water privatization case study to successfully persuade the UN office of the Special Rapporteur—who was conducting a detailed study towards the formulation the U.N. General Comment 15 on right to water—to remove overt references to privatization as a strategy for ensuring the water supply and sanitation in realizing the right to water. IATP also made the case that the General Comment must include water for farming and other subsistence livelihood practices to help establish the right to adequate food as a necessary component of realizing the right to water.
The struggle for the right to water continues even now in Bolivia. As several bloggers from the international water fair have pointed out, the gains of the water war have yet to reach la zona su—a wide swath of poor communities at the southern edge of the city that are highly organized and militant—some of the principal protagonists of the struggle in 2000 that led to the expulsion of the multinational Bechtel. Hence the need for small, autonomous water committees that continue to serve the needs of the local population. La Feria del Agua was thus not only a celebration of the 10th anniversary of the water wars, but also a public event celebrating the work of these water committees.
Earlier this week, thousands more arrived in Cochabamba to participate in the People's Conference on Climate Change, at the invitation of Bolivian President Evo Morales and civil society groups. In an attempt to draw attention to the fact that water is in the eye of the climate storm, one of the days at the Feria was celebrated as a climate and water day. It was planned as a day to question the political processes that promote market-based solutions as an answer to the water and climate crises, and to advance alternatives. IATP, along with On the Commons and several other groups from around the world that work on water justice issues, came together to develop a fact sheet, "Water and Climate Change: What's the connection?" and a draft declaration "On the Connection between Water and Climate Justice: Reviving a healthy climate through commons-based water management practices." These were presented at the Feria. The purpose was to reach out to other constituencies and to show that their struggle is our struggle too—since water permeates climate, forests, agriculture and life itself.
As a participant at the climate forum pointed out to Jeff Conant (read him at Climate Connections), "The most important outcome of this meeting would be a stronger people's movement on the climate crisis. It's not about documents, it's not about policy, it's about standing up together against the climate criminals." It is also about showing the world that there is an alternative.

IATP's Karen Hansen-Kuhn is blogging from Cochabamba, Bolivia at the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth.
The Climate Conference concluded today with a dialogue between social movements and governments. Bolivian Foreign Minister David Choquehuanca described the process leading up to the meeting and the central role of indigenous people in the conference and on these issues, as guardians of the balance among peoples and between people and Mother Earth.
He also reported on the overwhelming participation in the conference. More than 35,000 people from 142 countries attended the meetings, 19,000 of them from outside of Bolivia. Some 47 governments were represented.
People from Australia, Malaysia, the United States and Bolivia reported back on the recommendations from the 17 working groups. They included proposals for a global referendum on climate change and the establishment of an international climate court. They insisted on the Kyoto Protocol as the only binding instrument to reduce global warming, and called on governments to review the failure of carbon markets. They held out agro-ecology and small-scale farming as the best way to feed the world while cooling the planet. The complete recommendations will be available on the conference website by April 26.
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez, as well as the vice presidents of Cuba and Ecuador, responded with endorsements of the proposals. President Morales offered to facilitate sending the recommendations directly to the UN Secretary General, as well as inserting them in the negotiating process at the UNFCCC.
Of course, not all of these proposals fit within the UNFCCC process, but that really isn't the point. People from around the world came together in Bolivia to confront the impending climate catastrophe. Action is needed at all levels—local, national and international. The World Peoples Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth was an exhilarating step along the way.

IATP's Karen Hansen-Kuhn is blogging from Cochabamba, Bolivia at the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth.
The Conference opened today with a series of speeches by delegations from around the world. Each stressed the urgency of going beyond addressing the symptoms of global warming to taking actions to achieve deeper systems change.
A representative of La Via Campesina spoke on behalf of Latin America, emphasizing food sovereignty as a central solution to climate change. Throughout the day, in different panels and workshops, Via Campesina members stressed locally produced foods and sustainable agriculture grown by small-scale farmers as essential to cooling the planet while reducing hunger and strengthening rural livelihoods.
The opening events concluded with a rousing speech by President Evo Morales. He began with a concise critique of the Copenhagen Accord and the need for all countries to re-commit to the Kyoto Protocol process. However, he echoed the concerns raised by other delegations that market-based solutions will not solve the problems they helped to create.
Then, perhaps straying a bit from his prepared speech, he spoke about the importance of local foods. Too often, he said, multinational corporations promote genetically engineered crops and other technological solutions when the answers are really closer to home. During the food price crisis, wheat became very expensive, and many Bolivians returned to eating quinoa—a local crop that had been neglected for years. Now, he said, the FAO has released a report saying that quinoa is one of the most nutritious grains in the world. He pointed to his own full head of hair and joked that perhaps one reason so many European men are bald is that they eat too many genetically engineered, hormone-laced foods, instead of nutritious, locally grown foods.
It's hard to talk about climate change without looking at inequality, both within and among nations. And there are no easy answers to either of them. But it just might be that the creative ideas and alliances formed at this conference help us to move a few steps towards fresh new solutions to both.

IATP's Karen Hansen-Kuhn is blogging from Cochamamba, Bolivia at the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth.
Thousands of people from around the world streamed into the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth (CMPCC) on Monday to continue discussions that started online on a range of issues related to climate justice. The location of the conference itself makes a political statement. This is the ten-year anniversary of the Cochabamba "Water War," when thousands of local people rose up against the privatization of their water system. Walking into the conference site, the dramatic backdrop of the Andean mountains makes its own statement.
The online discussions were organized into 17 working groups on topics ranging from emissions reductions and finance to issues not on the official agenda, like migration and climate debt. Talks also centered on strategies, including the possible launch of a global peoples' referendum on climate change. The final documents will help to shape the Bolivian government's positions on climate change and hopefully influence other government delegations arriving later in the week.
More than 900 people registered for the working group on agriculture and food sovereignty (our contribution is summarized here) and, of those, 130 submitted comments electronically. Those talks continued in Cochabamba with presentations by Via Campesina, who asserted that as much as 57 percent of greenhouse gas emissions are associated with industrial agriculture. This includes emissions all along the production chain, including processing, packaging and transport (especially for export). On the other hand, converting to agroecological, locally oriented, smaller-scale production could lower emissions as much as 50 to 75 percent, while advancing food sovereignty, according to Via Campesina.
The working group discussions continued throughout the day, focusing on the need to address the role of agribusiness in climate change, the obstacles created by free trade and the climate challenges facing women, among other issues. Organizers worked late into the night to incorporate comments into new drafts of the position papers to be finalized in the coming days. Whatever the outcome of the papers, these talks have deeply involved farm organizations, raised the profile of agriculture and climate, and led to new ideas moving forward.

After official UN global climate talks stumbled again in Bonn last week, another global gathering will take a shot at reaching agreement on a plan to address climate change. Next week, the World People's Conference on Climate Change and the Rights of Mother Earth will run from April 19–22 in Cochabamba, Bolivia. The gathering is expected to attract civil society groups around the world, along with developing country–government representatives, to develop alternative proposals to address global climate change.
Bolivian President Evo Morales is leading the call for the meeting after many developing-country governments were frustrated with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change talks in December, which produced the Copenhagen Accord. Last week's Bonn meeting, the first since Copenhagen, revealed the growing rift between countries who want to continue negotiations based on the Kyoto Protocol and others, led by the U.S., who want to use the Copenhagen Accord as the basis for negotiations. IATP has been critical of the accord and the negotiating process in Copenhagen.
Organizers for the World People's Conference have set up 18 working groups to develop proposals on various aspects of a global climate treaty. IATP's Karen Hansen-Kuhn will report from Cochabamba next week. She is part of the "Agriculture and Food Sovereignty" and "Dangers of Carbon Markets" working groups. You can read Karen's submission on agriculture and climate change. A summary of IATP's concerns about the susceptibility of carbon markets to Wall Street speculators can be read here in English and in Spanish.

Attacks on the EPA have been coming fast and furious in the past few months. In contrast to Congress's limp attempts to pass comprehensive climate legislation, the EPA has begun taking steps to address climate change. Most significantly, the agency declared greenhouse gases (GHGs) an "endangerment" to public health last year—a finding that enables the EPA to regulate GHGs under the Clean Air Act. That hasn't sat well with those opposed to climate action.
In January, Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) introduced a "resolution of disapproval" in the Senate that would kill the EPA's ability to regulate GHGs. Although the resolution's viability is unlikely, if passed it would require Obama's signature, setting a disturbing precedent. The EPA decision was based on science. Murkowski's resolution is pure politics. Congress shouldn't have the authority to usurp science just because it doesn't like the outcome.
Murkowski's resolution has created something of a snowball effect. Rep. Collin Peterson (D-MN), chair of the House Agriculture Committee, introduced a copycat resolution in the House earlier this week, no doubt pleasing mightily his supporters in the Farm Bureau, National Corn Growers' Association and other conventional agriculture groups who have come out strongly in favor of Murkowski's resolution.

The club, who have been among the most aggressive teams at the Winter Meetings this week, will likely turn their focus to free-agent first baseman Prince Fielder.Miami broke negotiations for the three-time Most Valuable Player, Pujols, wide open yesterday afternoon when news broke that they had become the first to offer the slugger a contract with a duration of 10 years at a price of over $200 million. By late last night, it was reported that not only had the Cardinals at least matched the Marlins offer, another "mystery team" had entered the mix with their own $200 million deal. Pujols, 31, is considered by many to be the top free-agent on the market this winter. The slugging first baseman hit .299/.366/.541 with 37 home runs and 99 RBI for the Cardinals last season.

Mil Mi-52
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Mil Mi-52 "Snegir" is a projected four-seat light utility helicopter of the 1990s. The given name, "Snegir", is Russian for bullfinch. One mockup was built in 2000 and had two planned versions, which had different designations based on their engine number: Mi-52-1, with single 199 kW VAZ-4265 turboshaft engine, and Mi-52-2, with twin engines of the same kind.

text: Fresh Air Monday through Thursday at Noon on WMRA Hosted by Terry Gross Fresh Air opens the window on contemporary arts and issues with guests from worlds as diverse as literature and economics. 'American Horror Story' Returns, With Twists, Thrills And A Chilling Lady Gaga By David Bianculli • Oct 6, 2015 One of the newest trends on TV — and one of the most intriguing — is the season-long anthology drama series. In the Golden Age of TV, back in the 1950s, anthology series presented a brand-new story and cast every week. A lonely butcher named Marty looking for love. Jurors arguing over a verdict in 12 Angry Men. Mannequins coming to life in The Twilight Zone. 'Gates Of Gold' Showcases Los Lobos' Musical Influences And Extends The Band's Sound By Ken Tucker • Oct 6, 2015 Copyright 2015 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. Transcript TERRY GROSS, HOST: For Israeli-Born Chef, Hummus And 'Tehina' Are A Bridge To Home By editor • Oct 6, 2015 Michael Solomonov has built a reputation for his unique take on the cuisine of Israel. He's won a James Beard Award for Best Chef for his restaurants in Philadelphia. But he says awards aren't what inspire him to keep cooking. "It's the pots of rice," he tells Fresh Air's Dave Davies. "It's the savory pastries that my grandmother made that if I can close my eyes right now I can still taste." Univision's Jorge Ramos Discusses Journalism And That Donald Trump News Conference By editor • Oct 5, 2015 Mexican-American journalist Jorge Ramos has worked in a number of authoritarian countries, including Venezuela and Cuba, but until this summer, he had never been ejected from a news conference. Singer Blurs The Lines Between East And West On 'Sounds And Cries Of the World' By Kevin Whitehead • Oct 5, 2015 Copyright 2015 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. Transcript TERRY GROSS, HOST: Fresh Air Weekend: Baltimore's 'Beast Side'; 'After You'; A Doctor To The Homeless By editor • Oct 3, 2015 Fresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. This week: 'The Martian' Is A Gripping, Out-Of-This World Space Saga By David Edelstein • Oct 2, 2015 Copyright 2015 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. Transcript DAVID BIANCULLI, HOST: The Great Bluff That Led To A 'Magical' Pill And A Sexual Revolution By editor • Oct 2, 2015 Copyright 2015 NPR. To see more, visit http://www.npr.org/. Transcript DAVID BIANCULLI, HOST: Baltimore Author Discusses 'Living (And Dying) While Black' By editor • Oct 1, 2015 Growing up during the crack era in East Baltimore, author D. Watkins saw firsthand how the drug destroyed communities. "It trashed my neighborhood," Watkins tells Fresh Air's Terry Gross. "I'm old enough to remember before crack really hit, and once it did hit, it changed a whole dynamic of how drug culture worked." Suddenly, Watkins says, teenage kids — himself included — were selling crack on street corners. But the drug wasn't leaving the neighborhood with each sale. "Everybody's parents were junkies," he says. "And all the kids were selling or using." A Broken-Hearted Heroine Picks Up The Pieces In Jojo Moyes' 'After You' By Maureen Corrigan • Oct 1, 2015 Writer Jojo Moyes has a name that lacks gravitas. To be honest, I even feel a bit silly saying her name when I recommend her novels to people — which I do, often and energetically. It's hard to imagine a "Jojo" ever winning the Nobel Prize for Literature; but Moyes has already won a pretty good consolation prize — that is, the kind of staunch, adoring readership that will follow her novels anywhere they go.
