An interesting report on how climate change is affecting us right here and right now: New US climate report dire, but offers hope
But, chances are, if you haven't already been moved by the 'some nastiness comin' down, pay attention, dammit' approach, that won't reach you, either. This, however, may be more appealing to you: "Lazy Environmentalist" says don't feel bad

Scribd starts an 'online document store' where authors get 80% of the cut.
Not saying this is where The Novel's gonna show up (I'm still actively soliciting publisher slush piles and literary agents), but I've got some other work that this might be perfect for.

Bionic penguins take to the water -- and the skies.
Why is it my guidance counselor never mentioned 'building flying robot penguins' as a career option?
I especially am looking forward to when the bionic penguins take on their clear nemesis, the bionic octopus.
And if that wasn't enough:
13 things that do not make sense.
I bet the bionic jellyfish will solve these.

| You Are a Snow Leopard |
 You are understand the world better than most people you know. You are very perceptive and intuitive. You need lots of space to think. If you don't get the space you need, you're likely to bite someone's head off. Because you are so thoughtful and solitary, people find you to be intense and mysterious. You're even seen as intimidating. |

In case anyone has a LinkedIn account, I am now (as of yesterday) on there. If you're on there, feel free to add me to your network. If not, don't worry about it -- it's pretty much all businessy over there. Which has its place, sure... I'm just sayin'.

New brochure promoting 'climate change literacy.'
Covers the basics of climate change and its consequences in an easy-to-understand way. Recommended to anyone genuinely curious about the worsening climate situation and how it got that way, with a minimum of ten-dollar words.

Though this is, in fact, a story on how scientists are trying to accurately predict the consequences of accelerating global climate change, I have to admit, the first thought I had was, 'holy crap, they've found the Mountains of Madness.'
