When Arctic methane scientists disagree
Ignoring the Arctic Methane Monster: Royal Society Goes Dark on Arctic Observational Science. "The exclusion also highlights a large and what appears to be growing rift between those who observe the Arctic system and some that model it. Concern for larger carbon release from the Arctic system appears to be steadily rising among Arctic observational specialists, while some modelers appear to have retreated into silos in an attempt to defend previous understandings that were based on earlier work." [more inside]
A new article in Nature warns that "the costs of a melting Arctic will be huge", thanks in part to the likely release of "a 50-gigatonne (Gt) reservoir of methane, stored in the form of hydrates" beneath the East Siberian Arctic Shelf, "either steadily over 50 years or suddenly". An abrupt release is "highly possible at any time", says Natalia Shakhova of the University of Alaska at Fairbanks, who has observed plumes of methane up to a kilometre wide bubbling to the surface in the area.

"all gone by 2015"
While the 2007 IPCC report showed Arctic sea-ice still present in 2100, it is now an unfolding "global disaster" according to Cambridge Professor Peter Wadhams. Climate Code Red summarizes the science, saying the sea-ice is "in a 'death spiral' and likely to be gone in summer within a few years" ... "The sea-ice volume is now down to just one-fifth of what it was in 1979", and paints a newly emerging, rapidly worsening climate picture, urging climate scientists to sound the alarm on new data showing a world on the brink of dramatic tipping points, far sooner than anyone anticipated
Summer ice in the Arctic to disappear
Several measures of Arctic ice cover have hit record lows. Melting usually continues into September, so this year's minimum should be below the 2007 record. The rate of melting far exceeds that predicted by most models. Predictions of when the Arctic might be entirely ice-free at the summer minimum are being brought sharply forwards.
The Arctic is failing.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration has released its 2011 Arctic Report Card. Persistent warming has caused dramatic changes in the Arctic Ocean and the ecosystem it supports. Ocean changes include reduced sea ice and freshening of the upper ocean, and impacts such as increased biological productivity at the base of the food chain and loss of habit for walrus and polar bears. [more inside]
Arctic icemelt unambiguous evidence
Arctic Melt update: Scientists now have unambiguous evidence that the theorized phenomenon known as "polar amplification" has in fact been occurring for the past 5 years. It was not expected to be seen for at least another 10 or 15 years. "We're in a vicious positive feedback loop." [more inside]
Blogging from the top of the world
Dispatches from Polar Scientists -- A compilation of blogs "in celebration of the International Polar Year (2007-08), [giving] you an up-close-and-personal look at research in extreme environments through the thoughts and experiences of the scientists working there. We'll post their photos, videos, and blogs on this site."
"We badly underestimated the degree of damages and the risks of climate change," said Lord Stern in a speech in London yesterday. "All of the links in the chain are on average worse than we thought (pdf) a couple of years ago." [more inside]
Bye Hoboken, as you drown in climate-changed caused floods
New Jersey is drowning, or rather it would if the the future as predicted by David Spratty & Philip Sutton in climate code red comes true. Philip Sutton said in an interview that "within five years the Arctic ice in the summertime will be all gone.". With all the ice melting, the waterlevels rise - will your house be under water?
September 2007 polar sea ice anomaly
Video (8MB, MPEG) of arctic sea ice extent, recorded from January to September 2007. [other formats] This summer a dramatic decrease compared to previous years in the extent of the north pole ice cap was observed. Scientists are freaked out [bugmenot]. This summer, the Northwest Passage was open for a few weeks, allowing three ships to traverse it. [more inside]
The Polar Slush Cap?
"In an average August between 1979 and 2000, the Arctic Ocean was covered with about 3 million square miles of sea ice, according to the National Snow and Ice Data Center. By Labor Day this year, the total had shrunk to a little more than half that, shattering the previous record low set in 2005."
That forest is such a lush...
With global warming trends melting permafrost throughout the arctic circle, we may be seeing more and more of this phenomenon: Drunken Forests. An artist responds.

An Educational Exploration of Nunavut. "Setting out to document arctic climate change we will dogsled the territory of Nunavut, meeting Inuit Elders and students, to explore traditional ecological knowledge in the remote communities visited along the trail while gathering scientific data daily from the field for NASA and Environment Canada." - a cool expedition to bring some attention to what many are describing as the greatest threat to mankind today.

gulf stream
The warm water ocean currents of the Gulf Stream are why London rarely gets snow yet Boston is fridged despite London being as far north as Montreal, Canada. New weather modeling research from Columbia University may turn this long-held belief on its head; London can thank the Rocky Mountains for its mild winters. Good news for the rest of Europe too in case the Gulf Stream stops due to Arctic melting.

Once the North Pole was covered in that kind of hard, dry, icy snow that you couldn't pack. Now sping is here! Robin red-breast and the Easter Bunny can't be far behind. Let's pelt each other with snowballs and build a fort before it all melts away, and the long summer of human-made Armageddon melts us all. What a world, what a world. Not that we haven't seen it coming.

I made this for Christmas dinner, and it was the best Sweet Potato dish I've ever had. My father-in-law (who loves sweet potatoes) said the topping tasted like candy, and he had triple helpings. It was wonderful!
This recipe is awesome, Its even better than my sister-in-laws and she wouldn't given me hers now that she has tried mine she is willing to give me the recipe if I give this one.LOL
Yum! I made minor changes (soy milk, egg replacer & vegan butter) with great success. I also did half of the topping with almonds (for DH). It was good; sort of like a toffee. I'll stick with pecans. Thanks for a great recipe!

Fishermen catching redfish and trout
Published: Thursday, March 1, 2007 at 11:03 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, March 1, 2007 at 1:04 p.m.
GOLDEN MEADOW -- Due to inclement weather, February and March are well-known for being poor months for fishing.
But in the past week, Gary Callais of T-Pops Mart said the fishing has improved because of the warmer temperatures.
That means anglers are catching more fish such as redfish and speckled trout.
"Its getting warmer, and the fish is starting to come back," Callais said. "We just need the winds to calm down a little to help us out."
Average fishing.
Callais said redfish and drum are being caught on shrimp and minnows in local canals.
Although the catfish is still slow, Callais said anglers are catching trout on plastic.
Best spots: Duck Ponds and canals for redfish and flounder and all area lakes in lower Lafourche for trout.
Best baits: Artificial bait for trout, and minnows and shrimp for redfish and flounder.
Average fishing.
The weather has also affected the fishing around Grand Isle. Anglers reported rough seas, which has made it nearly impossible to fish.
A few speckled trout and redfish are biting in the marshes around the island though.
Best spots: North Grand Isle and Timbalier Islands.
Best baits: Spinners, crab, artificial bait and night crawlers.
Good fishing.
Some warmer temperatures mean the speckled trout action is heating up as well.
Bill Lake of Bayou Guide Service reported taking in 108 trout on Tuesday morning.
As soon as the wind died down an hour after daylight, the trout began to bite.
Most of the fish were caught near shallow reefs in 2-3 feet of water.
Best spots: Sister Lake and Lake Mechant.
Best baits: LSU Bayou Chub Minnows.
Average fishing.
The First East vs. West Open is set for March 10 out of Bayou Black Marina.
The freshwater fishing in the region is getting better, and the saltwater fishing remains strong.
Anglers are catching red fish in the Bayou Penchant area and speckled trout are being caught in Lake Decade, below the Brady Canal and in Lost Lake.
For more information on the Bayou Black area visit www.bayoublackmarina.com.
Best spots: From the Copasaw area to the Turtle Bayou area, Gate Canal and Bayou Penchant.
Best baits: Top water, spinners, tube jigs and night crawlers.

Statement attributable to the Spokesperson for the Secretary-General on the killing of an Iranian border guard
New York, 25 March 2014
The Secretary-General condemns the killing of one of the five Iranian border guards who were abducted on 6 February in the country's southeast border region by a militant group. He expresses his solidarity with the Government and people of Iran, who are confronted with this appalling act amid the annual Nowruz celebrations held to commemorate in peace the start of a new year. The Secretary-General sends his condolences to the family of the slain guard. He calls for the perpetrators to be brought to justice. He hopes for the success of the ongoing efforts by the Government of Iran to achieve the release of those who remain captive.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - New lights are planned for the chairs that represent bombing victims at the Oklahoma City National Memorial and Museum.
Memorial officials say new LED lights will be installed on the chairs and will make them as bright as they were when the memorial opened in 2000.
The chairs represent the 168 people who died as a result of the April 19, 1995, bombing of the Alfred P. Murrah Federal Building.
The project is expected to cost up to $30,000 and will continue for a few weeks.

Overseas visitors travelling in camper vans are more likely
to pay for camp sites than New Zealanders in camper vans.
A report to the Ministry of Business, Innovation and
Employment by consultants Covec shows ''domestic'' camper-van
occupants spend 75% of their nights in paid sites and
international occupants spent 89% in paid sites.
The figure for domestic camper-van occupants included nights
spent on properties owned by friends or relatives.
The main results of the 2011 study into the spending patterns
and behaviour of camper-van tourists were reported by the
Otago Daily Times in December and showed this segment of the
tourism market was worth $547.2 million to New Zealand each
However, the study also provides detailed information about
how camper-van occupants spent their time and money at a
local level.
The average adult international camper-van occupant spent
$4359 during their 20-day trip to New Zealand and hired a van
for 16 of those days.
Of their total spending, $1311 went on van hire, $523 on
international air fares, $502 on attractions and activities,
$338 on groceries, $324 on food and beverage, $298 on fuel,
$283 on site fees, $251 on retail, $246 on accommodation,
$185 on other transport, $79 on domestic airfares and $18 on

Polish-born Frank Blaichman, a member of a Jewish resistance unit during World War II, was the only member of his immediate family who survived the Holocaust. A teen when the war started, he obtained arms by posing as a Polish policeman, traveling through the countryside by bike, committing acts of sabotage against the Nazis, refusing to wear the yellow Jewish star.
The author of "Rather Die Fighting: A Memoir of World War II," he spoke Sunday at an Upper West Side Yom HaShoah commemoration, hosted by Congregation Ohab Zedek. His speech gave the personal side of Jewish fighters, glamorized in such recent films as "Defiance" and "Inglourious Basterds."
Q: After decades of the "sheep to the slaughter" image of Jews-as-victims, Hollywood has finally discovered Jews who fought back. Why now?
A:I don't really know how Hollywood operates — I'm a builder and developer. However, when we arrived in the United States, most of the fighting men and women became busy building new lives. Many of us also had to learn a new language — which made it difficult to express myself and tell my story.
At the same time, Jewish organizations were rightly focused on the victims. I became shy of telling my story of armed resistance. I didn't want to make them feel uncomfortable, as if they could have done what I did, but didn't. The reality is that resistance during the Holocaust took many forms, and to stay alive was the ultimate resistance.
Why is it important that Jewish resistance be known?
When my comrades and I survived, we thought that Nazism, fascism, racism, anti-Semitism and bigotry were gone forever. We now see that they are alive and well and must be continuously fought.
How accurate is the Hollywood depiction of the partisans? How is it different from what you did?
I have not yet seen a film that accurately and comprehensively depicts what Jewish partisan brigades did. That being said, there are several very fine films. "Defiance" depicted the story of the Bielski group. The Bielskis were dedicated to sheltering Jews and survival rather than military action against the Germans. They had a remarkable story to tell, and it was a very good film.
How different was the experience of Jewish partisan units from mixed units or all-gentile units?
Many units decided to remain under Jewish command in order to hide and shelter Jews who were unable to fight. Jewish partisans in mixed units did not have the opportunity to help other Jews.
We also faced far more hardships and difficulties than the Polish and Russian partisans. We had become orphans overnight and were traumatized. A gentile partisan could decide to quit and return home if he wanted to — we had no homes to return to.
"Inglourious Basterds" focused on revenge. Was that your motivation?
Our first motivation was survival, but that doesn't mean we didn't think about revenge. Early on, we had to decide whether we would exact simple revenge when we caught collaborators. We decided, however, that in a world in which there was no justice for Jews, we would hold on to our Jewish principles.
Mitch Braff's Jewish Partisan Educational Foundation is documenting the memories of members of resistance units. How important is his work?
Very important. There are many organizations in the U.S. that are dedicated to Holocaust remembrance, but the foundation is the only one that teaches about Jewish partisans and armed resistance.

Sad that Mr. Bleichman in his book, he accuses the Polish resistance, especially Home Army of anti-Semitism. In the Home Army from 1941 was the Office of the Jews, who collected information about the fate of the Jews, send them to the Western Allies, organized help. The Army has worked with subordinate to the Polish exile government "Zegota" Polish Council to Aid Jews, eminently deserved in saving Jews from extermination. Referring to the anti-Semitic organization, it is shameful, especially when using the Jews was irrevocable and immediate death of facilitator, and his family.
At the same time you Bleichman shamefully ignored in a diary their share of the communist apparatus of repression, in leading positions in the Voivod Office of Public Security in Kielce.
In the case of Mr. Bleichman, because of the opportunity to participate in the crimes of Stalin and because of the murder of participants of the Polish resistance movement in Poland initiated an investigation.
my father also was a partisan in the Genovice woods of Poland during the Holocaust. Would love to speak with you. Can you please email me?

The 12-unit apartment complex, at 419 Garfield St. in Oceanside 92054, has been sold for $1.26 million.
The buyer was Garfield by the Sea LLC, a California limited liability company, c/o Avezta Equity Inc., 12768 Monterey Cypress Way, San Diego 92130.
The acquisition was financed with a loan of $945,000 from JPMorgan Chase Bank (NYSE: JPM).
The sellers of the property were Ricci and Lorrie M. Luyties.
Merrick Matricardi, Eric Comer and Jim Neil, of CBRE San Diego represented buyer and sellers.
Built in 1970 on .28 acres, the 9,300-square-foot property consists of all two-bedroom units and was 100-percent leased at the time of sale.
"Multifamily sales activity in the last half of 2012 started to gain momentum, which is carrying through into this year," Matricardi said. "With the San Diego housing market on the upswing, multifamily rental rates are being pushed higher even in secondary submarkets. Investors are taking advantage of the favorable market conditions and we expect to see significant sales activity throughout the year."

A Quarter Century of Unix
Author: Peter H. Salus
Publisher: Addison-Wesley 1994
Reviewer: Danny Yee
Summary: From Space Travel to Plan 9 and Linux
A Quarter Century of Unix is a history of Unix, a kind of annotated collection of reminiscences. It begins at the "birth" of Unix, with Ken Thompson looking for a machine to play Space Travel on, then jumps back to provide the context, both in the history of computing in general and in the particular setup at Bell Labs. Part two describes the work done up to 1974, both on Unix and on the tools and language (C) so closely associated with it. Part three tries to pin down some of the things that made Unix unique: its style, the strong contributions by users and user groups, and the key role of some of its more famous tools. Parts four and five trace the expansion of Unix: the development of BSD and the commercial Unixes, the creation of SUN, the ambivalent relationship with DEC, legal issues and attempts at standardization. The final section offers an overview of the current status of Unix in its many different versions and offers some ideas about where it is heading. There is also a very brief glance at some of the systems that it has influenced, including Bell Lab's new Plan 9 system. The finale has Dennis Ritchie, Brian Kernighan and others offering their ideas on what made Unix work. Particularly noteworthy is the solid treatment of legal issues (three chapters altogether) and the coverage of events outside the United States (in Australia, Europe and Japan).
The format of A Quarter Century of Unix, with most of the text in the form of extended quotations, runs the risk of discontinuity and lack of focus. Salus has chosen and edited his source material well, however, and inserted his own summary and exposition in appropriate places. The result is a great read, with the voices of the various creators providing unique perspectives on the events they participated in (some scores of people are quoted from at length).
I did spot a few minor inconsistencies in the text—on page 155 we read "It was 32V that became 3BSD in 1979", though the Unix versions tree on page 61 shows no such influence—and errors—on page 253 we have "It was clear that AT&T hadn't objected to other derivatives: Linux, MINIX, etc. In the autumn of 1988...", implying that Linux existed in 1988 (and Linus' name is misspelled in the index, too). But these are just quibbles. A more weighty criticism would be that the book sometimes reads more like myth than history, with the participants portrayed like epic heroes. (It's rather obvious that Salus himself is a Unix fan.) This may worry the historians, but in a way it is the legends and myths that are the most influential, so the distinction is perhaps moot.
A Quarter Century of Unix doesn't assume specialized knowledge, but the more you know about Unix (and to a lesser extent, about architectures and operating systems) the more you will get out of it—if you've never used awk, for example, you will probably have little interest in reading about its origins and development. The main audience will be programmers, administrators, and users with extensive Unix experience. Historians and sociologists of the computer industry will find Salus' work an essential source of primary material, and marketing types might well learn a thing or to from it. A Quarter Century of Unix should be a great success; it's just unfortunate that it wasn't written years ago!

Practical Task Scheduling Deployment
On Demand
One of the best things about the UNIX environment (aside from being stable and efficient) is the vast array of software tools available to help you do your job. Traditionally, a UNIX tool does only one thing, but does that one thing very well. For example, grep is very easy to use and can search vast amounts of data quickly. The find tool can find a particular file or files based on all kinds of criteria. It's pretty easy to string these tools together to build even more powerful tools, such as a tool that finds all of the .log files in the /home directory and searches each one for a particular entry. This erector-set mentality allows UNIX system administrators to seem to always have the right tool for the job.
Cron traditionally has been considered another such a tool for job scheduling, but is it enough? This webinar considers that very question. The first part builds on a previous Geek Guide, Beyond Cron, and briefly describes how to know when it might be time to consider upgrading your job scheduling infrastructure. The second part presents an actual planning and implementation framework.

With all the industry talk about the benefits of Linux on Power and all the performance advantages offered by its open architecture, you may be considering a move in that direction. If you are thinking about analytics, big data and cloud computing, you would be right to evaluate Power. The idea of using commodity x86 hardware and replacing it every three years is an outdated cost model. It doesn't consider the total cost of ownership, and it doesn't consider the advantage of real processing power, high-availability and multithreading like a demon.
This ebook takes a look at some of the practical applications of the Linux on Power platform and ways you might bring all the performance power of this open architecture to bear for your organization. There are no smoke and mirrors here—just hard, cold, empirical evidence provided by independent sources. I also consider some innovative ways Linux on Power will be used in the future.Get the Guide

Mullen Puts Limit on U.S. Military Role in Yemen
WASHINGTON -- Adm. Mike Mullen, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, appeared to rule out direct U.S. military action in Yemen, the home of the al Qaeda affiliate that has claimed responsibility for the alleged attempt to blow up a U.S. airliner on Christmas Day.
Speaking to students at George Washington University, Adm. Mullen, the nation's top military officer, was asked whether the U.S. was considering carrying out airstrikes on targets inside Yemen or deploying American ground forces there. He replied that the U.S. effort would be limited to helping fund and train the Yemeni security forces, some of whom are already mentored by small teams of elite American Special Operations forces.
"We've worked ... to support a growing Yemeni armed forces capability," Adm. Mullen said. "We are going to continue to support the Yemeni government in the execution of their strategy to eliminate these terrorists."
Yemeni forces have launched a manhunt for the leader of the al Qaeda cell there, which U.S. officials said was behind a threat that forced the temporary closure of the U.S. and British embassies in San'a. The Yemeni troops this week killed at least two suspected al Qaeda members and arrested seven others, the government said.
The U.S. and British embassies reopened Tuesday, saying the effort by Yemeni forces had largely resolved the threat.
Since the failed Christmas attack, U.S. military officials have said privately that the Pentagon planned to ramp up its training efforts in Yemen, and U.S. and British officials have since announced a plan to jointly fund a new Yemeni counterterrorism force.
Adm. Mullen's comments were notable because he is the first senior U.S. commander to formally indicate that the U.S. had no current plans to carry out new attacks inside Yemen in response to the terror incident.
Yemen's foreign minister said this week his country opposes any direct intervention by U.S. or other foreign troops in the fight against al Qaeda. Anti-American sentiment is widespread in Yemen, and the appearance of too close an alliance with Washington could backfire on the government in San'a.
The Fight in Yemen
In 2002, the disclosure that a Central Intelligence Agency missile fired from a Predator drone had killed an al Qaeda leader and five others in Yemen raised fears of a backlash -- and the prospect of nurturing public sympathy for the terrorist group.
In his remarks to students Wednesday, Adm. Mullen said he was deeply alarmed by al Qaeda's increasing strength inside Yemen, which he described as an emerging "safe haven" for the group.
"I've had significant concerns about the growing threat in Yemen, the growth of another safe haven for al Qaeda in Yemen as well as Somalia," he said.
Echoing remarks Tuesday by President Barack Obama, Adm. Mullen said U.S. counterterrorism systems failed in advance of the Christmas Day incident because intelligence analysts failed to properly piece together the disparate data points that collectively indicated that Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the alleged bomber, could pose a threat.
"We had the intelligence. We didn't connect the dots, and we need to improve that," he said.
Adm. Mullen said the incident highlighted the importance of creating data-analysis systems that are capable of spotting the critical information that is often obscured by the massive amounts of raw intelligence that are collected every day.
"We're living in a world where we need to completely understand our environment and then look for anomalies, look for change and focus on the change," he said. "And that's a whole different way of thinking about how, in my world, warfare is both prevented and executed."

text: Just returned from a weeks stay in the "Coat of Arms" apartment. It was our first trip to Italy, and whilst the villa looked perfect before our stay, it was even better. The village,Navacchio,is on the main train line between Pisa and Florence, so getting about without a car is easy.The village has a couple of good local restaurants, and also two good shops and another two good supermarkets if you choose to dine in the apartment. Donatella , the owner also gave us good advice for Restaurants in Pisa itself.The villa is stunning,and as we are not art or culture lovers was wasted on us. But even we could see that the work that has been done and that that still needs doing is exceptional. Words or pictures do not do it justice you have to see it to appreciate it.

Chills are multiplying as more than 100 students are preparing for opening night at Camdenton High School. The Laker Theatre Company is presenting the iconic musical, 'Grease' over the weekend.
Faculty, community members and young Lakers are coming together to help the high school students make the show a reality. The version presented this weekend is appropriate for a high school performance. According to school officials, the show will include all the classic fun with any questionable content removed to make it a family friendly production.
Most of the well-known songs and moments from the musical will come to life on stage in the RC Worthan Auditorium.Director Jo Beth Nicklas says that this show is a milestone for the Laker Theatre Company.
"It's our biggest as far as number of people involved," she said.
Earlier in the month, the theatre group held a workshop for Camdenton students grades third through eighth. More than 80 students participated. They learned songs and choreography from the shown and were given a tour of the theatre department. The young Lakers will get a chance to take to the stage with their new high school friends during the introduction and finale of each performance.
All performances will take place at Camdenton High School's RC Worthan Auditorium.
Tickets can be purchased online by visiting www.camdentonschools.org or by calling 573-216-8926 (calls will not be answered when classes are in session, but will be returned in the order received).

These builders will be fun to short. Last week they jumped on weekly mortgage apps increase. Today mortgage apps tanked, but starts were better. The builders can start new construction, but if mortgage apps are down, maybe those new homes aren't selling? Wait for earnings next week and then a few days treading water. When they go down it will be hard and fast.

I love this plugin and can't wait to get the full potential from it.
I wonder whether you might know what is causing this:
I am using BuddyDev's BP-Gallery. On the media item page (i.e. /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/gallery/single/media/single.php) I am calling the views like this:
<?php echo do_shortcode('[post_view]'); ?>
This shows the number of views the way it should. Great!...but...
The big problem however is that the view counter appearing on each of the other photo items (e.g. url -> /members/Daniel/gallery/my-galleries/logos/logo-1 ... or ... /logo-2 etc.) is using the exact same information. If you view one, you view them all. Is there a way to make the counter independent for each media item/photo etc.? I'm not sure exactly how it works but it looks like it is accumulating views based on the 'member' as opposed to the page or url or media image.
It would be fantastic if it counted each gallery item independently then was able to show the number of views in the gallery itself.
I look forward to hearing back from you, fantastic plugin!
