Their name first appeared a year ago alongside the Coral and the Music, mentioned in passing by the trigger-happy NME. No one’s known quite what to make of them—their debut album, The Decline of British Sea Power, is categorically schizophrenic, undefinable and certainly not a part of any marketable “new rock revolution” scene...
Those who died on 9/11 deserve more than a cover-up of uncomfortable truths, including the fact that Saudi Arabia is no friend of the U.S. SCOTT KILHEFNER Cape Coral...
...research was on climate, which is more than just temperature, over many centuries, well beyond the range of widespread thermometer records. As has been customary for over three decades in studies of past climate, we relied on environmental indicators of change, including annually-dated information in tree rings, coral, stalagmites and ice cores. Those indicators respond differently to temperature, rainfall, sea salinity, etc., so they cannot be simply averaged. The indicators are not sampled across most of the world to give a global picture...
...Australian National University show that reefs may be vulnerable to another environmental insult: wildfires. A new report suggests that smoke from 1997 Indonesian fires deposited iron on the surface of the water, leading to the growth of phytoplankton. This caused a so-called red tide that suffocated the coral. The only good reef news comes from a new four-nation study suggesting that while climate change certainly isn't good for coral, the tiny organisms may do better than we think at adapting to new conditions. Species with a tolerance for warmer waters may already be emerging. This flicker...
...regime if this week's talks founder. Russia, an old cold war ally, is currently staging a massive military exercise near the North Korean border, together with two of North Korea's traditional enemies, Japan and South Korea. The Australian and U.S. navies will muster in the Coral Sea in September to practice boarding hostile vessels, part of the U.S.-led Proliferation Security Initiative, an 11-nation effort to cut off North Korean shipments of missiles and illicit drugs...
