...reality, these desperate times call for greater spending, as opposed to cutbacks. In order to reduce the sky-high unemployment that threatens our country’s present and future, to soothe the damaged and frightened national psyche, and to build a strong foundation for growth, the government must unleash massive public spending...
...Golden Knights were finally able to unleash that weapon when Harvard junior Liza Ryabkina got sent to the penalty box for slashing at 12:33. Sixteen seconds later, Clarkson junior Melissa Waldie found the back of the net off a rebound of sophomore Juana Baribeau’s slapshot. It was Waldie’s ninth power-play goal of the season...
...over the past 50 years. While the frequency of storms in the middle latitudes has decreased as the climate has warmed, the intensity of those storms has increased. That's in part because of global warming - hotter air can hold more moisture, so when a storm gathers it can unleash massive amounts of snow. Colder air, by contrast, is drier; if we were in a truly vicious cold snap, like the one that occurred over much of the East Coast during parts of January, we would be unlikely to see heavy snowfall. (See pictures of the effects of global warming...
...youth coaches should be trained in a concussion-management program approved by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and be certified before strapping a whistle around their neck. Make coaches carry a concussion card that shows they're aware of the risks and aren't idiotic enough to unleash two 8-year-old heads on each other.

"Because that's what they are - they're lifeguards...
...Indeed, many scientists worry that we could reach a tipping point at which warming could begin to melt the Arctic permafrost and unleash masses of buried methane - which would then further warm the atmosphere, releasing more methane and continuing in a dangerous feedback cycle. But if we're going to prevent that from happening, we're going to have to find a way other than reducing methane emissions from wetlands. Global food requirements mean that we can't cut back seriously on rice paddy cultivation, and wetlands are far too important to the environment as groundwater filters and buffers against...
