    2010 hottest and wettest year on record

    http://www.nytimes.com/2011/01/13/sc...ines&emc=tha22

    New government figures for the global climate show that 2010 was the wettest year in the historical record, and it tied 2005 as the hottest year since record-keeping began in 1880. The new figures confirm that 2010 will go down as one of the more remarkable years in the annals of climatology. It featured prodigious snowstorms that broke seasonal records in the United States and Europe; a record-shattering summer heat wave that scorched Russia; strong floods that drove people from their homes in places like Pakistan, Australia, California and Tennessee; a severe die-off of coral reefs; and a continuation in the global trend of a warming climate.

    based on an admittedly small sample size, 2011 is freezing cold so far.
    Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

          Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

              That's what happens when you pray for moisture.

                  Best news I've heard all day. 2010 annual bonuses should be better than last year

We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf

                    Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                      This climate change thing is getting out of hand. Sharks are now reported to be swimming up and down the flooded streets in Australia.

                      TWO bull sharks have been spotted swimming past the McDonald’s restaurant in Goodna.

                      Goodna butcher Steve Bateman saw one of the sharks swimming through the flooded waters of Williams Street near his bucher’s shop in the St Ives shopping centre yesterday.

                      There were several reports of another shark spotted in Queen Street, the main street through Goodna.
                      When are those environmental engineers going to do something about this?

                        I know. Bull sharks in the butcher shop. These are indeed the last days.
