2 Studies Challenge Notion of Rise in Atlantic Storms The high number of storms reported since the mid-1990s may reflect improved observation and analysis techniques, not a meteorological change for the worse. New York TimesMinisters could split energy bill THE Rudd government is considering altering its climate change plans in the Senate. The AustralianDo Seed Companies Control GM Crop Research? Advances in agricultural technology--including, but not limited to, the genetic modification of food crops--have made fields more productive than ever. Farmers grow more crops and feed more people using less land. They are able to use fewer pesticides and to reduce the amount of tilling that leads to erosion. And within the next two years, agritech companies plan to introduce advanced crops that are designed to survive heat waves and droughts, resilient characteristics that will become increasingly important in a world marked by a changing climate.Unfortunately, it is impossible to verify that genetically modified crops perform as advertised. That is because agritech companies have given themselves veto power over the work of independent researchers.

New York TimesFor Lawmakers, Health-Plan Anger Keeps Coming Lawmakers have run into fresh anger as they field questions from constituents worried about changes in health care and many other things in government. International Herald TribuneFriends of the Earth`s new website gives digital facelift to community activism Friends of the Earth launched an innovative flash website for its Get Serious About CO2 campaign today, demanding councils play their part in tackling climate change by reducing local emissions by at least 40 per cent by 2020. foe.co.ukProtein Chemistry: The Rag-and-Bone Trade Sequencing ancient DNA can establish genetic differences among species and can document population changes over long periods, yet a major challenge is to avoid extensive sampling of rare and ancient . [] Sciencemag.orgCanadian scientists identify gene that makes water striders glide across water Water striders, the familiar semi-aquatic bugs gliding across the lake at the cottage, have a novel body form that allows them to walk on water. Achieving the gliding ability required the evolution of a unique arrangement of the legs, with the mid-legs greatly elongated. scientists have discovered the gene behind this evolutionary change. Eurekalert.orgEarly fire use ignites discussion about the evolution of human brainpower New evidence that early modern humans used fire in southern Africa in a controlled way to increase the quality and efficiency of stone tools is changing how researchers understand the evolution of human behavior, and in particular, the evolution of human brain power. Eurekalert.orgEarly Modern Humans Used Fire To Engineer Tools From Stone; Complex Cognition Older Than 72,000 Years? New evidence has been found showing that early modern humans living on the southern coast of Africa 72,000 years ago employed pyrotechnology -- the controlled use of fire -- to increase the quality and efficiency of their stone tool manufacturing process. This technology required a novel association between fire, its heat, and a structural change in stone with consequent flaking benefits; findings ignite notion of complex cognition in these early engineers.
