Oh well - it was nice while it lasted.
Growth has already pushed Earth past tipping point, new study says
The final synthesis report from the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate change will show that growing economies herald growing greenhouse gas emissions and the result has been a growing threat of global warming, says scientist and Australian of the Year conservationist Tim Flannery.
''We thought we'd be at that threshold within about a decade,'' Flannery told ABC. ''We thought we had that much time, but the new data indicates that in about mid-2005, we crossed that threshold.''
Hmmm. DJ, can I have a shot of that scotch?
As soon as I can get my hands on some. Glenlevet, Laphroaig or Lagavullin?
Man, I love my students.
How happy am I to see Emily saying this? SO happy.

Me, too. I was afeared that her experience last year was gonna drive her from teaching altogether.
Timelies all!
Just sitting here watching Nova bounce off the wall(almost literally). 4-month old kitten + catnip = Win!
From the NYT blogging the Republican debate:
Mr. McCain is asked a weird question by Chris Matthews: Are we ever going to go back to the 1950’s when a man could graduate from high school, marry his high school sweetheart and she wouldn’t have to work to have a decent lifestyle? Did I really hear that? The right answer is that most American women want to work and the economy has created opportunities for that change. Mr. McCain says he’d like to see that era return but he doubts it.
Er? I'm trying hard to find a way to laugh at this, but it's just so. . . depressing.

Tweety is so obnoxious. so obsessed about whether he's manly or not. I wish he and Oliver Stone would find a glade and a warrior Talking Stick and leave us all alone.
Okay, I'd happily insist in a will that any heirs have to inlay my skull with silver and use it as a cereal bowl every morning, or make me into a diamond that gets inserted in their teeth, but this is just weird.
this is just weird.
I dunno - maybe it's just that I've clicked on too many of your links, but when I saw the name of the business, my mind jumped straight to tat, not photo.
Tat would be a better memorial. Harder to lose, anyway. And the dearly departed would be a part of you.
