...took a trip on the Queen Mary 2 just before filming. Did you find yourself thinking, What would I do if this ship went down? That's what art has been doing for thousands of years, allowing people to vicariously drown, get eaten. Me? I would probably hold babies in front of me and strangle people and claw their flesh...
...than a dozen such episodes, five American Legion Riders from Kansas decided last August that they had had enough. At subsequent funerals, they gathered fellow bikers to form a human shield between Phelps' disciples and the bereaved, blocking the protesters' signs with flags and occasionally revving their engines to drown out the insults. Soon the riders outgrew the protesters. Phelps' church has only about 75 members, mostly his relatives.

The latter event could raise sea levels a whopping 5 meters, or about 16 ft., which could drown huge swaths of low-lying coastland and essentially wipe out countries like Bangladesh and the Maldives. Modest temperature increases could also shut off key ocean currents, like the Gulf Stream, plunging Europe into a mini...
