Responses to Photos

Which of these photos has the most important details?

I feel the first photo is the most telling of the chaos and devestation that shows the aftermath of this tragedy.


What do you notice in the photos that you would include in your story?
The fact that there is still order among the chaos


Write a sentence describing the scene in the "best" photo.
Even in a time of crisis, it's funny how an identification badge can give comfort. Just knowing this woman helping out in the makeshift hospital is aptly qualified, makes everything look a little better. There is hope.

Heres Some Stuff I've Been Slowly Digesting

Over a year ago, the Heartland institute published a list of 500 scientists whose work proves that there is no reason to fear global warming because it is a completely natural earth cycle. The institute article states seven main points the author interprets from research papers the scientists wrote. These points include agriculture, sea levels and storm patterns, among other things.

Here's the article

I have gone through some of the list and found a few names from schools in the Northwest I'll slowly update the list as I go through it.

Anderson, P.M., University of Washington
Balco, Gregory, University of Washington
Bartlein, P.J., University of Oregon
Brubaker, Linda, University of Washington
Clark, Douglas H., University of Washington





I've been using Wikipedia as my jumping off point. There is so much information, but even the page about global warming controversy debates almost every point skeptics make.

There's more, and I'll continue to update. I'll try to get more this afternoon and some tomorrow morning.
