...sure he'd have me loving beer by the first afternoon. We started by trying some nonlight American lagers over lunch at the hotel bar to figure out what I like, which definitely included a beer float using vanilla ice cream and an ale called Tommyknocker Cocoa Porter Winter Warmer. What I liked, Kerkmans determined, was rich, toasty malt over biting hops, ales over lagers and anything with a Belgian yeast. I also seemed to like beers more when I drank a lot of them...
...more fun to be racing than training and you really appreciate all the hard work you’ve done all season. Everyone looks forward to the spring season and it’s definitely the best time of the year.” The team took to the warmer waters at Crown Point Shores Park at Mission Bay in San Diego against stiff competition—the field included defending national champion Washington as well as runner-up Stanford. While the varsity eight placed third in its division, the second varsity eight defeated Washington and Cal?...
What do we talk about when we talk about global warming? It'll get hotter, that's a safe bet; polar ice caps will be melting, and wildlife that can't adapt to warmer temperatures could be on the way out. But what does it really mean for the health of us, the human race? It's a question that remains surprisingly difficult to answer - research into climate change's impacts on human health have lagged behind other areas of climate science. But what we do know has scientists and doctors increasingly worried - a rising risk of death from heat...
...first step to making that case is understanding exactly what warmer temperatures will do to us and our diseases - and few scientists know more about the topic than Patz, a member of the UN's Nobel Prize-winning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). (Hear Patz talk about global warming and health on this week's Greencast.) As temperatures increase, and hotter, drier summers become the norm in regions that were once temperate, powerful heat waves - like the one in Europe in 2003, which killed an estimated 35,000 people - will take a toll. At the same time, climate models...
...Bangkok, diplomats at the U.N. climate conference last week made little progress on hammering out the successor to Kyoto.) If there is money to be spent on preparing the world for the health impacts of climate change, the priority should be adapting our public health system to a warmer world, versus spending on carbon mitigation. Global warming to some degree will be inevitable - but human suffering needn't be, if we're smart enough to prepare...
