Oh, the Humanity! On Climate Change & Ancient Egypt
Oh, the frogs! The gnats! Signs and marvels, visited on the Pharaoh — that loser — in answer to his taunt that He did not know Yahweh. Oh, the flies! The pestilence visited upon the beasts of the field — the horses and donkeys and camels, "and on their cattle and sheep and goats." The thunderstorms of hail and fire! The dead fish in the Nile! Beware, lest we face the full force of Nature’s plagues. Be it known that Yahweh was a storm-and-weather deity who led the heavenly army against Israel’s enemies.

Eulogy for my grandfather
Eulogy for my grandfather I want to tell you about something that happened a couple weeks ago. I meditated in a creek for a few hours, standing completely still. I reached the point where I felt like I was the creek—I was the piece of driftwood, the water, the fireflies, and the trees.

The Rise of Global Warming
Unseen trends in future climate research will play a major role in the next climate change assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which is expected to be published next year. There is a great deal of scientific consensus that global warming has increased over the past decade and that this increase is due to the production of man-made gas (90-100% depending on the specific question, time, and method of making published examples all astronomers agree). Despite political controversies over climate change, the IPCC concluded with an important report dated 27 September 2013 that scientists are convinced of the link between human activity and global warming.
