But with warming climate comes a reduction in the amount of snow on mountaintops, which might mean that spring floods such as this Danube event might actually become less commonplace. Might, might . It's interesting to contrast the definite assertions of the climate hysterics with the tentative contradiction of those who read the book. Links to this post:.

Email: guesswho @ guesswhere.com. Thursday, May 25, 2006. Cosmological membrane theory is an interesting speculation without evidence, or much evidence at any rate, and none of it unambiguous. Perhaps that will change in the next few years. The framework Keeton and Petters developed predicts certain cosmological effects that, if observed, should help scientists validate the braneworld theory. The observations, they said, should be possible with satellites scheduled to launch in the next few years. Petter...

You can do that by being more shrill than fellow travelers or by loudly beating your way through the bush to blaze a new trail. George Monbiot has tried the former and now seems to be trying the latter. Posted by back40 4/26/2006 12:58:00 AM. Links to this post:. UN FAO - Organic. Norms and Prefs Net.

This recent article. In The Economist laments the demise of EU agriculture commissioner Franz Fischler's proposed reforms that would decouple CAP payments from production and decrease over time. A related article. Subscription required] says much the same in more colorful language. Cheap at the price, say the ministers.

Email: guesswho @ guesswhere.com. Sunday, June 04, 2006. Old Joe helps you be alert. Researchers from the University of Queensland found that with caffeine consumption we are more likely to attend to, and agree with, persuasive arguments. The level of 'systematic processing of the message' was found to be increased by caffeine as shown by increased agreement with the arguments, greater message-related thinking and better argument recall. This is tragic. There are zillions of people paying attention t...

Email: guesswho @ guesswhere.com. Thursday, May 25, 2006. The Colorado river than Powell saw when he explored it for the post-bellum US in 1869 may have been more representative than the river we've seen since the turn of the century. A new tree-ring-based reconstruction of 508 years of Colorado River streamflow confirms that droughts more severe than the 2000-2004 drought occurred before stream gages were installed on the river. Well, that's interesting but so what? Posted by back40 5/25/2006 03:42:00 PM.

When mature these technologies may function at the nano scale and sip energy and materials. Current technologies build objects by whittling away excess mass from stocks. These technologies build objects up by depositing mass in the right places. An overview of current capabilities. Posted by back40 5/02/2006 08:42:00 PM. Links to this post:. The same, but different.

Research involving more than 7,000 older women found that those who drink a moderate amount of alcohol have slightly higher levels of mental function than non-drinkers, particularly in verbal abilities . . . Ok, don't buy her a beer if she doesn't drink or is already stoned. Posted by back40 5/31/2006 07:43:00 PM. Links to this post:. Beating the Big C. The same, but different. UN FAO - Organic.

I'm moving house, offline mostly, summertime, changes etc. etc. and will be back in the fall with a different host for those domains, different software etc. etc. It's difficult to do other than state vague intentions right now since I'm betwixt and between.
