It's bad enough that folks out of work have to deal with an unemployment rate that is pushing double digits, but now they also have to watch out for a growing wave of fraudsters who are looking to take advantage of their desperation. "The scammers have gotten so much more active since the recession," says Susan Joyce, who runs the work-search site Job-Hunt.org. "There are more of them and they're more sneaky."

It's generally agreed that during the earlier warm period, known as the Miocene Climatic Optimum, which occurred 15 million years ago, the global temperature was high enough to make sea levels between 80 ft. and 130 ft. higher than they are today. According to the new study, CO2 levels in the atmosphere at that time hovered at from 390 to 430 parts per million (p.p.m.). Today's CO2 level: 387 p.p.m. and rising...

Even a dance floor make out, DFMO for repeat offenders, can be a bad move depending on the attractiveness of your partner (victim?).
