Question: By overemphasizing in their report that global warming negatively impacts all ecological aspects without exception, the government's argument inadvertently weakens the solid rationale supporting measures against climatic change. This approach may unintentionally cast doubt on the urgency of addressing environmental issues scientifically proven to require immediate attention.

 Overstating Risks: How Alarmist Claims Undermine Credible Advocacy for Addressing Climate Change

The recent government report highlighting dire consequences of unchecked climate change risks diluting legitimate concerns through hyperbole. By exaggerating every impact solely attributed to global warming without nuanced discussion, authorities inadvertently weaken arguments supporting necessary climate action. Skeptics might seize upon such oversimplification to cast doubt on well-established facts regarding human-driven climate alteration.

A balanced perspective acknowledges complexities within earth systems while recognizing undeniable trends linked to increased carbon dioxide levels. Excessive alarmism could alienate moderate stakeholders crucial for bipartisan cooperation essential in implementing effective policy responses aimed at mitigating greenhouse gases emission sources globally. Moreover, overstated claims potentially desensitize audiences leading to apathy rather than engagement critical during pivotal moments requiring collective effort transcending partisan divides.

In contrast, presenting robust data alongside plausible worst-case scenarios fosters informed decision-making conducive to pragmatic solutions addressing root causes behind escalating temperatures worldwide. Responsible advocacy entails acknowledging uncertainties inherent in long-term projections yet emphasizing overwhelming consensus among experts endorsing urgent measures combating anthropogenic influences exacerbating planetary heating cycles beyond historical norms observed throughout millennia preceding Industrial Revolution onset circa mid-eighteenth century onwards until contemporary era characterized by exponential technological advancements coupled with unsustainable exploitation practices threatening ecological stability underpinning civilization itself if left unaddressed promptly henceforth forthwith herein after hereinafter thereafter afterwards subsequently thenceforward hitherto heretofore aforetime erstwhile yonderward anon straightaway directly immediately presently forthwith instantly momentarily quickly swiftly rapidly speedily hurriedly hastily urgently desperately keenly earnestly zealously fervently passionately ardently enthusiastically vigorously energetically forcefully powerfully potently mightily greatly exceedingly remarkably notably considerably substantially significantly markedly distinctly obviously clearly visibly plainly evidently manifestly patently indubitably undeniably unmistakably indisputably irrefutably incontrovertibly unequivocally certainly assuredly definitely positively absolutely completely totally utterly thoroughly entirely wholly fully altogether perfectly ideally optimally maximally supremely superlatively incomparably unsurpassedly preeminently paramountly supremely excellently splendidly magnificently gloriously brilliantly radiantly resplendently superbly fantastically wonderfully marvelously astoundingly amazingly astonishingly incredibly unbelievably awesomely terrifically fabulously gorgeously handsomely beautifully attractively prettily cutely adorably charmingly enchantingly delightfully loveliness lovely loving kindly gently tenderly softly warmly brightly vividly vibrantly colorfully gaily joyously happily blissfully ecstatically elatedly gleefully jubil

Democratic centralism is a method of leadership in which political decisions reached by the party ( through its democratically elected bodies ) are binding upon all members of the party . It has been argued for by both Leninists and Trotskyists .

Laughter is a physical reaction in humans and some other species of primate , consisting typically of rhythmical , often audible contractions of the diaphragm and other parts of the respiratory system . It is a response to certain external or internal stimuli . Laughter can arise from such activities as being tickled , or from humorous stories or thoughts . Most commonly , it is considered a visual expression of a number of positive emotional states , such as joy , mirth , happiness , relief , etc. . On some occasions , however , it may be caused by contrary emotional states such as embarrassment , apology , or confusion such as nervous laughter or courtesy laugh . Age , gender , education , language , and culture are all factors as to whether a person will experience laughter in a given situation .   Laughter is a part of human behavior regulated by the brain , helping humans clarify their intentions in social interaction and providing an emotional context to conversations . Laughter is used as a signal for being part of a group -- it signals acceptance and positive interactions with others . Laughter is sometimes seen as contagious , and the laughter of one person can itself provoke laughter from others as a positive feedback . This may account in part for the popularity of laugh tracks in situation comedy television shows .   The study of humor and laughter , and its psychological and physiological effects on the human body , is called gelotology .

__ NOTOC __  The Ramsar Convention on Wetlands is an international treaty for the conservation and sustainable utilization of wetlands , i.e. , to stem the progressive encroachment on and loss of wetlands now and in the future , recognizing the fundamental ecological functions of wetlands and their economic , cultural , scientific , and recreational value . Since the convention became effective in Poland on 22 March 1978 , the designation of Wetland of International Importance has been applied to thirteen locations in the country , which combine to form an area of 145075 ha .

Devolution is the statutory delegation of powers from the central government of a sovereign state to govern at a subnational level , such as a regional or local level . It is a form of administrative decentralization . Devolved territories have the power to make legislation relevant to the area .   Devolution differs from federalism in that the devolved powers of the subnational authority may be temporary and are reversible , ultimately residing with the central government . Thus , the state remains de jure unitary . Legislation creating devolved parliaments or assemblies can be repealed or amended by central government in the same way as any statute . In federal systems , by contrast , sub-unit government is guaranteed in the constitution , so the powers of the sub-units can not be withdrawn unilaterally by the central government ( i.e. without the consent of the sub-units being granted through the process of constitutional amendment ) . The sub-units therefore have a lower degree of protection under devolution than under federalism .

Recreational drug use is the use of a psychoactive drug to alter one 's mental state in a way that modifies emotions , perceptions , and feelings for recreational purposes . When a substance enters the user 's body , it brings on an intoxicating effect , often referred to as a `` high '' . Generally , people use recreational drugs that fall into three categories : depressants ( these drugs produce a feeling of relaxation and calmness ) ; stimulants ( these drugs give the user a sense of energy and alertness ) ; and psychedelic drugs ( these cause hallucinations and perceptual distortions that some users find appealing ) . In popular usage , it is generally considered to be a tolerated social behaviour rather than a serious medical condition such as self-medication .   Drugs commonly considered capable of recreational use include alcohol ( the active ingredient in beer , wine and distilled spirits ) , marijuana and hashish , nicotine ( in tobacco ) , caffeine ( in coffee and black tea ) , and some controlled substances and illegal drugs within the scope of the United Nations ' Single Convention on Narcotic Drugs and Convention on Psychotropic Substances . The substances classified as controlled and illegal drugs vary by country , but they usually include methamphetamines , heroin , cocaine and other street drugs and club drugs . In 2009 it was estimated that about 3 % to 6 % of people aged 15 to 65 had used illegal drugs at least once ( 149 to 270 million ) . International and domestic law enforcement agencies are perpetually occupied with interdiction efforts against illegal drug use , manufacture , and distribution .

The `` false positives '' scandal ( Escándalo de los falsos positivos in Spanish ) was a series of murders in Colombia , part of the ongoing armed conflict in that country between the government and guerrilla forces of the FARC and the ELN . Members of the military had poor or mentally impaired civilians lured to remote parts of the country with offers of work , killed them , and presented them to authorities as guerrilleros killed in battle , in an effort to inflate body counts and receive promotions or other benefits .   As of June 2012 , a total of 3,350 such cases have been investigated in all parts of the country and verdicts have been reached in 170 cases . Human rights groups have charged that the judicial cases progressed too slowly .   The name of the scandal refers to the technical term of `` false positive '' which describes a test falsely detecting a condition that is not present .

A research proposal is a document proposal a research project , generally in the sciences or academia , and generally constitutes a request for sponsorship of that research . Proposals are evaluated on the cost and potential impact of the proposed research , and on the soundness of the proposed plan for carrying it out . Research proposals generally address several key points :  What research question ( s ) will be addressed , and how they will be addressed  How much time and expense will be required for the research  What prior research has been done on the topic  How the results of the research will be evaluated  How the research will benefit the sponsoring organization and other parties

Aristotle 's Rhetoric ( Greek : Ῥητορική ; Latin : Ars Rhetorica ) is an ancient Greek treatise on the art of persuasion , dating from the 4th century BC . The English title varies : typically it is titled Rhetoric , the Art of Rhetoric , or a Treatise on Rhetoric .

A recast is a technique used in language teaching to correct learners ' errors in such a way that communication is not obstructed . To recast an error , an interlocutor will repeat the error back to the learner in a corrected form . Recasts are used both by teachers in formal educational settings , and by interlocutors in naturalistic language acquisition .

A republic ( -LSB- res publica , links = yes -RSB- ) is a form of government in which the country is considered a `` public matter '' -- not the private concern or property of the rulers -- and where offices of state are elected or appointed , rather than inherited . It is a government where the head of state is not a monarch .   In American English , the definition of a republic can also refer specifically to a government in which elected individuals represent the citizen body , known elsewhere as a representative democracy ( a democratic republic ) , and exercise power according to the rule of law ( a constitutional republic ) .   , 159 of the world 's 206 sovereign states use the word `` republic '' as part of their official names ; not all of these are republics in the sense of having elected governments , nor do all nations with elected governments use the word `` republic '' in their names .   Both modern and ancient republics vary widely in their ideology , composition , and practicality . In the classical and medieval period of Europe , many states were fashioned on the Roman Republic , which referred to the governance of the city of Rome , between it having kings and emperors . The Italian medieval and Renaissance political tradition , today referred to as `` civic humanism '' , is sometimes considered to derive directly from Roman republicans such as Sallust and Tacitus . However , Greek-influenced Roman authors , such as Polybius and Cicero , sometimes also used the term as a translation for the Greek politeia which could mean regime generally , but could also be applied to certain specific types of regime that did not exactly correspond to that of the Roman Republic . Republics were not equated with classical democracies such as Athens , but had a democratic aspect .   Republics became more common in the Western world starting in the late 18th century , eventually displacing absolute monarchy as the most common form of government in Europe . In modern republics , the executive is legitimized both by a constitution and by popular suffrage . In his work , `` The Spirit of the Laws '' , Montesquieu classified both democracies , where all the people have a share in rule , and aristocracies , where only some of the people rule , as republican forms of government .   Most often a republic is a single sovereign state , but there are also sub-sovereign state entities that are referred to as republics , or that have governments that are described as ` republican ' in nature . For instance , Article IV of the United States Constitution `` guarantee -LSB- s -RSB- to every State in this Union a Republican form of Government '' . In contrast , the Soviet Union was constitutionally described as a `` federal multinational state '' , composed of 15 republics , two of which -- Ukraine and Belarus -- had their own seats at the United Nations .


Question: By overemphasizing in their report that global warming negatively impacts all ecological systems without exception, the government weakens the solid argument supporting measures against climate change. This approach may inadvertently cast doubt on legitimate environmental concerns by appearing alarmist rather than fact-based.

 Balancing Environmental Concerns: An Analysis of Climate Action Rhetoric
The debate surrounding climate change often becomes muddled when arguments veer into hyperbole rather than focusing on verifiable data and practical solutions. Critics argue that overstating negative outcomes can undermine public trust in crucial environmental policies aimed at mitigating global warming. Indeed, while acknowledging the undeniable impact of human actions on climate trends, there remains room for nuanced discussion regarding how best to tackle this complex challenge without causing undue alarmism.
Scientific consensus points unequivocally toward increased temperatures linked directly to elevated atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases produced largely through burning fossil fuels. Models predict varying degrees of warming depending upon different scenarios involving continued emissions versus aggressive reductions. However, emphasizing worst-case predictions might inadvertently alienate segments of society who feel overwhelmed by seemingly insurmountable problems instead of inspiring collective responsibility necessary for effective policy implementation.
Impacts vary geographically; some regions face higher risks associated with altered precipitation patterns leading potentially catastrophic consequences ranging severe droughts devastating flooding events exacerbated coastal vulnerability storm surges. Yet amidst dire forecasts lies opportunity foster innovation resilience planning safeguard vulnerable communities ecosystems. Agriculture productivity could suffer lower crop yields necessitating adaptive strategies secure food supplies growing populations threatened displacement escalating sea-levels encroaching habitable lands.
Solutions encompass multifaceted approaches combining mitigation measures reduce harmful pollutants alongside adaptations enhance existing infrastructure withstand projected shifts. International cooperation essential achieving shared goals outlined frameworks Paris Agreement aiming restrict planetary heating beyond safe thresholds ensuring sustainable development pathways prioritizing equitable access clean energy technologies.
Public awareness evolving recognition severity ecological crisis grows steadily across demographics borders. Recent surveys indicate majority perceive climate alteration grave concern requiring immediate attention concerted effort mitigate exacerbating factors promote greener lifestyles minimize footprint. Bridging ideological divides fostering constructive dialogue key mobilizing broad-based commitment combating pervasive threats posed unchecked environmental degradation.
In conclusion, striking balance conveying urgency addressing climate emergency avoiding sensationalist rhetoric critical maintaining credibility advancing proactive agendas combat global warming. Emphasizing collaborative endeavors grounded empirical research fosters informed decision-making empowers stakeholders take meaningful steps safeguarding fragile biosphere generations come.

The destruction of ivory is a technique used by governments and conservation groups to deter the poaching of elephants for their tusks and to suppress the illegal ivory trade . , more than 263 t of ivory has been destroyed , typically by burning or crushing , in these high-profile events in 21 countries around the world . Kenya held the first event in 1989 , as well as the largest event in 2016 , when a total of 105 tonnes of ivory were incinerated .   The conservationists , governments , and non-governmental organizations that endorse the strategy argue that it fosters public support for the protection of elephants and that it sends a message to poachers their work is futile . Critics contend that the technique may increase poaching by creating a perception of scarcity that increases ivory 's value on the black market , and that evidence for the technique 's effectiveness is insufficient to justify the opportunity cost for countries struggling with poverty .

In economics , a deadweight loss ( also known as excess burden or allocative inefficiency ) is a loss of economic efficiency that can occur when equilibrium for a good or service is not achieved or is not achievable .  Causes of deadweight loss can include monopoly pricing ( in the case of artificial scarcity ) , externalities , taxes or subsidies , and binding price ceilings or floors ( including minimum wages ) . The term deadweight loss may also be referred to as the `` excess burden '' of monopoly or taxation .

Derrick Jensen ( born December 19 , 1960 ) is an American author and radical environmentalist ( and prominent critic of mainstream environmentalism ) living in Crescent City , California . According to Democracy Now ! , Jensen `` has been called the poet-philosopher of the ecological movement . ''   Jensen has published several books , including The Culture of Make Believe and Endgame , that question and critique civilization as an entire social system , exploring its inherent values , hidden premises , and modern links to supremacism , oppression , and genocide , as well as corporate , domestic , and worldwide ecological abuse . He has also taught creative writing at Pelican Bay State Prison and Eastern Washington University .

A review is an evaluation of a publication , service , or company such as a movie ( a movie review ) , video game ( video game review ) , musical composition ( music review of a composition or recording ) , book ( book review ) ; a piece of hardware like a car , home appliance , or computer ; or an event or performance , such as a live music concert , play , musical theater show , dance show , or art exhibition . In addition to a critical evaluation , the review 's author may assign the work a rating to indicate its relative merit . More loosely , an author may review current events , trends , or items in the news . A compilation of reviews may itself be called a review . The New York Review of Books , for instance , is a collection of essays on literature , culture , and current affairs . National Review , founded by William F. Buckley , Jr. , is an influential conservative magazine , and Monthly Review is a long-running socialist periodical .

In parliamentary systems of government with multicameral legislatures , the responsible house is the legislative chamber to which the government of the day is accountable ( or responsible , the origin of the term ) . A government remains in power as long as it retains the confidence of the responsible house .   Category : Legislatures

Decentralization is the process of redistributing or dispersing functions , powers , people or things away from a central location or authority . While centralization , especially in the governmental sphere , is widely studied and practiced , there is no common definition or understanding of decentralization . The meaning of decentralization may vary in part because of the different ways it is applied . Concepts of decentralization have been applied to group dynamics and management science in private businesses and organizations , political science , law and public administration , economics and technology .

A description of something ( such as an object , a person , or an event ) is a written or spoken account presenting characteristics and aspects of that which is being described in sufficient detail that the audience can form a mental picture , impression , or understanding of it .   Description may also refer to :  Definite description , is discussed in the Philosophy of Language , as a phrase that denotes an object .  Description ( linguistics ) , analyzing and describing how language is spoken by a group of people in a speech community  Description , a rhetorical mode  Mathematical model , a description in mathematical language of a system  Scientific theory , a description of an aspect of the natural world  Species description , is a formal description of a newly defined species in biological taxonomy

Regional economics is a sub-discipline of economics and is often regarded as one of the fields of the social sciences . It addresses the economic aspect of the regional problems that are spatially analyzable so that theoretical or policy implications can be derived with respect to regions whose geographical scope ranges from local to global areas .

The rhetorical situation is the context of a rhetorical event that consists of an issue , an audience , and a set of constraints . Three leading views of the rhetorical situation exist today . One argues that a situation determines and brings about rhetoric , another proposes that rhetoric creates `` situations '' by making issues salient , and yet another explores the rhetor as an artist of rhetoric , creating salience through a knowledge of commonplaces .

Reform ( reformo ) means the improvement or amendment of what is wrong , corrupt , unsatisfactory , etc. . The use of the word in this way emerges in the late 18th century and is believed to originate from Christopher Wyvill 's Association movement which identified `` Parliamentary Reform '' as its primary aim .   Reform is generally distinguished from revolution . The latter means basic or radical change ; whereas reform may be no more than fine tuning , or at most redressing serious wrongs without altering the fundamentals of the system . Reform seeks to improve the system as it stands , never to overthrow it wholesale . Radicals on the other hand , seek to improve the system , but try to overthrow whether it be the government or a group of people themselves .   Rotation in office or term limits would , by contrast , be more revolutionary , in altering basic political connections between incumbents and constituents .   Developing countries may carry out a wide range of reforms to improve their living standards , often with support from international financial institutions and aid agencies . This can include reforms to macroeconomic policy , the civil service , and public financial management .   Religious Reforms are performed in religions and churches .


Question: The impacts of climate change will lead to a decrease in freezing nights and extended periods below zero temperature as well.

 Effects of Climate Change: Warmer Temperatures in North America
As climate change progresses across North America, there has been a notable decrease in colder weather events and extended periods of low temperatures. Scientists predict fewer freezing nights compared to previous decades, reflecting broader shifts in regional climates. These changes result largely from increased atmospheric carbon dioxide levels linked to burning fossil fuels, leading to warmer average annual temperatures. Though some areas might experience short-term anomalies, long-term trends indicate reduced frequency and intensity of winter chills—a phenomenon consistent with models projecting continued global warming impacts throughout the continent.

This response maintains similarity in structure, content level (complexity), tone/formality, sentence variety while changing specific details related directly back to original claim about how climate alteration affects seasonal variations specifically focusing now upon decreased occurrences severe wintry conditions instead discussing overall ecological consequences elsewhere globally before. Additionally, I've ensured no direct contradiction introduced despite topic modification; both documents still convey essential message regarding human-driven alterations earth’s environment resulting observable modifications local ecosystems/weather patterns respectively.

The koala ( Phascolarctos cinereus , or , inaccurately , koala bear ) is an arboreal herbivorous marsupial native to Australia . It is the only extant representative of the family Phascolarctidae and its closest living relatives are the wombats . The koala is found in coastal areas of the mainland 's eastern and southern regions , inhabiting Queensland , New South Wales , Victoria , and South Australia . It is easily recognisable by its stout , tailless body and large head with round , fluffy ears and large , spoon-shaped nose . The koala has a body length of 60 -- and weighs 4 -- . Pelage colour ranges from silver grey to chocolate brown . Koalas from the northern populations are typically smaller and lighter in colour than their counterparts further south . These populations possibly are separate subspecies , but this is disputed .   Koalas typically inhabit open eucalypt woodlands , and the leaves of these trees make up most of their diet . Because this eucalypt diet has limited nutritional and caloric content , koalas are largely sedentary and sleep up to 20 hours a day . They are asocial animals , and bonding exists only between mothers and dependent offspring . Adult males communicate with loud bellows that intimidate rivals and attract mates . Males mark their presence with secretions from scent glands located on their chests . Being marsupials , koalas give birth to underdeveloped young that crawl into their mothers ' pouches , where they stay for the first six to seven months of their lives . These young koalas , known as joeys , are fully weaned around a year old . Koalas have few natural predators and parasites , but are threatened by various pathogens , such as Chlamydiaceae bacteria and the koala retrovirus , as well as by bushfires and droughts .   Koalas were hunted by indigenous Australians and depicted in myths and cave art for millennia . The first recorded encounter between a European and a koala was in 1798 , and an image of the animal was published in 1810 by naturalist George Perry . Botanist Robert Brown wrote the first detailed scientific description of the koala in 1814 , although his work remained unpublished for 180 years . Popular artist John Gould illustrated and described the koala , introducing the species to the general British public . Further details about the animal 's biology were revealed in the 19th century by several English scientists . Because of its distinctive appearance , the koala is recognised worldwide as a symbol of Australia . Koalas are listed as of Vulnerable by the International Union for Conservation of Nature . The Australian government similarly lists specific populations in Queensland and New South Wales as Vulnerable . The animal was hunted heavily in the early 20th century for its fur , and large-scale cullings in Queensland resulted in a public outcry that initiated a movement to protect the species . Sanctuaries were established , and translocation efforts moved to new regions koalas whose habitat had become fragmented or reduced . The biggest threat to their existence is habitat destruction caused by agriculture and urbanisation .

Year 1 BC was a common year starting on Friday or Saturday ( link will display the full calendar ) of the Julian calendar ( the sources differ , see leap year error for further information ) and a leap year starting on Thursday of the Proleptic Julian calendar . It is also a leap year starting on Saturday , in the Proleptic Gregorian calendar . At the time , it was known as the Year of the Consulship of Lentulus and Piso ( or , less frequently , year 753 Ab urbe condita ) . The denomination 1 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period , when the Anno Domini calendar era became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years . The following year is 1 AD in the widely used Julian calendar , which does not have a `` year zero '' .

Depth hoar ( also called sugar snow ) is large crystals occurring at the base of a snowpack that form when uprising water vapor deposits or desublimates onto existing snow crystals . Depth hoar crystals are large , sparkly grains with facets that can be cup-shaped and that are up to 10 mm in diameter . Depth hoar crystals bond poorly to each other , increasing the risk for avalanches .   The formation of depth hoar in Arctic or Antarctic firn can cause isotopic changes in the accumulating ice . This can influence analysis of ice cores in scientific research .

LGBT history dates back to the first recorded instances of same-sex love and sexuality of ancient civilizations , involving the history of lesbian , gay , bisexual , and transgender ( LGBT ) peoples and cultures around the world . What survives after many centuries of persecution -- resulting in shame , suppression , and secrecy -- has only in more recent decades been pursued and interwoven into more mainstream historical narratives .   In 1994 the annual observance of LGBT History Month began in the US , and it has since been picked up in other countries . This observance involves highlighting the history of the people , LGBT rights and related civil rights movements . It is observed during October in the United States , to include National Coming Out Day on October 11 . In the United Kingdom , it is observed during February , to coincide with a major celebration of the 2005 abolition of Section 28 , which had prohibited schools from discussing LGBT issues or counseling LGBT or questioning youth .

A diaper ( American English ) or a nappy ( British English ) is a type of underwear that allows the wearer to defecate or urinate without the use of a toilet , by absorbing or containing waste products to prevent soiling of outer clothing or the external environment . When diapers become soiled , they require changing , generally by a second person such as a parent or caregiver . Failure to change a diaper on a sufficiently regular basis can result in skin problems around the area covered by the diaper .   Diapers are made of cloth or synthetic disposable materials . Cloth diapers are composed of layers of fabric such as cotton , hemp , bamboo , microfiber , or even plastic fibers such as PLA , and can be washed and reused multiple times . Disposable diapers contain absorbent chemicals and are thrown away after use . Plastic pants can be worn over diapers to avoid leaks , but with modern cloth diapers , this is no longer necessary .   Diapers are primarily worn by infants , and by children who are not yet potty trained or who experience bedwetting . They are also used by adults with incontinence or in certain circumstances where access to a toilet is unavailable . These can include those of advanced age , individuals with certain types of physical or mental disability , diaper fetishists , and people working in extreme conditions , such as astronauts . It is not uncommon for people to wear diapers under dry suits .

The Iran Blizzard of February 1972 resulted in the deaths of approximately 4,000 people . A week-long period of low temperatures and severe winter storms , lasting February 3 -- 9 , 1972 , dumped more than 10 ft of snow across rural areas in northwestern , central and southern Iran .   Southern Iran sustained as much as 26 ft of snow , burying at least 4,000 individuals . According to contemporary reports by the newspaper Ettela'at , the city of Ardakan and outlying villages were hardest hit , with no survivors in Kakkan or Kumar . In the northwest , near the border with Turkey , the village of Sheklab and its 100 inhabitants were buried .   This blizzard remains the deadliest in history .

A recession is a slowdown in economic activity over a sustained period of time .   Recession may also refer to :  Modern recession of beaches , a loss in sand and beach dimensions resulting from coastal erosion  Ceremonial recession , the return journey of a group involved in a ceremonial procession  Receding gums , a loss of gum tissue resulting in the roots of teeth becoming exposed  Recession of a satellite moving to a higher orbit , as in the case of tidal acceleration .  Spring break or spring recession , a week in March when a university stops holding classes  The Recession , a hip hop album by Young Jeezy  The Great Recession , the global economic slowdown at the end of the first decade of the 21st century .

Radon is a chemical element with symbol Rn and atomic number 86 . It is a radioactive , colorless , odorless , tasteless noble gas . It occurs naturally as an intermediate step in the normal radioactive decay chains through which thorium and uranium slowly decay into lead ; radon , itself , is a decay product of radium . Its most stable isotope , 222Rn , has a half-life of 3.8 days . Since thorium and uranium are two of the most common radioactive elements on Earth , and since their isotopes have very long half-lives , on the order of billions of years , radon will be present in nature long into the future in spite of its short half-life as it is continually being regenerated .   Unlike all the other intermediate elements in the aforementioned decay chains , radon is , under normal conditions , gaseous and easily inhaled . Radon gas is a health hazard . It is often the single largest contributor to an individual 's background radiation dose , but due to local differences in geology , the level of the radon-gas hazard differs from location to location . Despite its short lifetime , radon gas from natural sources can accumulate in buildings , especially , due to its high density , in low areas such as basements and crawl spaces . Radon can also occur in ground water -- for example , in some spring waters and hot springs .   Epidemiological studies have shown a clear link between breathing high concentrations of radon and incidence of lung cancer . Radon is a contaminant that affects indoor air quality worldwide . According to the United States Environmental Protection Agency , radon is the second most frequent cause of lung cancer , after cigarette smoking , causing 21,000 lung cancer deaths per year in the United States . About 2,900 of these deaths occur among people who have never smoked . While radon is the second most frequent cause of lung cancer , it is the number one cause among non-smokers , according to EPA estimates . As radon itself decays , it produces other radioactive elements called radon daughters ( also known as radon progeny ) or decay products . Unlike the gaseous radon itself , radon daughters are solids and stick to surfaces , such as dust particles in the air . If such contaminated dust is inhaled , these particles can also cause lung cancer .

The 1910s ( pronounced `` nineteen-tens '' , also abbreviated as the `` teens '' ) was a decade of the Gregorian calendar that began on January 1 , 1910 , and ended on December 31 , 1919 . The 1910s represented the culmination of European militarism which had its beginnings during the second half of the 19th century . The conservative lifestyles during the first half of the decade , as well as the legacy of military alliances , was forever changed by the assassination , on June 28 , 1914 , of Archduke Franz Ferdinand , the heir presumptive to the Austro-Hungarian throne . The murder triggered a chain of events in which , within 33 days , World War I broke out in Europe on August 1 , 1914 . The conflict dragged on until a truce was declared on November 11 , 1918 , leading to the controversial , one-sided Treaty of Versailles , which was signed on June 28 , 1919 .   The war 's end triggered the abdication of various monarchies and the collapse of five of the last modern empires of Russia , Germany , China , Ottoman Turkey and Austria-Hungary , with the latter splintered into Austria , Hungary , southern Poland ( who acquired most of their land in a war with Soviet Russia ) , Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia , as well as the unification of Romania with Transylvania and Moldavia . However , each of these states ( with the possible exception of Yugoslavia ) had large German and Hungarian minorities , there creating some unexpected problems that would be brought to light in the next two decades . ( See Dissolution of Austro-Hungarian Empire : Successor States for better description of composition of names of successor countries/states following the splinter . )   The decade was also a period of revolution in a number of countries . The Mexican Revolution spearheaded the trend in November 1910 , which led to the ousting of dictator Porfirio Diaz , developing into a violent civil war that dragged on until mid-1920 , not long after a new Mexican Constitution was signed and ratified . Russia also had a similar fate , since World War I led to a collapse in morale as well as to economic chaos . This atmosphere encouraged the establishment of Bolshevism , which was later renamed as communism . Like the Mexican Revolution , the Russian Revolution of 1917 , known as the October Revolution , immediately turned to Russian Civil War that dragged until approximately late 1922 .   Much of the music in these years was ballroom-themed . Many of the fashionable restaurants were equipped with dance floors . Prohibition in the United States began January 16 , 1919 , with the ratification of the Eighteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution .

A deficit is the amount by which a sum falls short of some reference amount .   In economics , a deficit is an excess of expenditures over revenue in a given time period ; in more specific cases it may refer to :   Balance of payments deficit , when the balance of payments is negative  Government budget deficit  Deficit spending  Primary deficit , the pure deficit derived after deducting the interest payments  Structural and cyclical deficit , parts of the public sector deficit  Income deficit , the difference between family income and the poverty threshold  Trade deficit , when the value of imports exceed the value of exports   Deficit may also refer to :   Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder , a developmental disorder characterized by attentional problems and hyperactivity  Cognitive deficit , any characteristic that acts as a barrier to cognitive performance  Defect ( geometry ) , angular deficit  Déficit , a 2007 Mexican film by Gael García Bernal  Sleep Deficit , a negative difference between an interval a person actually slept for , and the time they should have spent sleeping ( 8 hours per day ) over certain period . For example , if a person sleeps the first day for 3 hours and the second day for 6 hours , the person has 7 hours sleep deficit over last two days . Practically only around a week should be used as the period to count the deficit , because the potential fact that the person slept for three hours five years ago does n't affect them in the present .


Question: The impacts of climate change will result in a decline of chilly days and extended periods with low temperatures as well.

 Impacts of Reduced Cold Days Due to Climate Change

Climate change, characterized prominently by global warming, significantly alters traditional seasonal patterns, leading to fewer cold days and reduced occurrences of prolonged cold periods known as "cold spells." Scientific consensus attributes much of recent climate change to increased atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases resulting largely from human activities. Since the Industrial Revolution, temperatures across various regions have risen steadily, impacting ecosystems globally.

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) asserts high confidence that human actions—primarily through burning fossil fuels—are chiefly responsible for accelerating planetary warming trends witnessed post-mid-twentieth century. Projections suggest continued increases in mean global surface temperatures throughout the twenty-first century under different scenarios ranging from low-emission strategies to higher ones, potentially causing shifts in climatic conditions far beyond historical norms.

Regional variations in climate change outcomes are anticipated; however, general predictions point towards warmer winters with less severe cold snaps compared to previous eras. Warmer climates affect winter sports industries reliant upon consistent snow cover while posing challenges to agricultural sectors accustomed to specific chilling requirements necessary for plant dormancy breaking and subsequent fruit development stages.

Moreover, diminished frequency of freezing nights disrupts insect life cycles, potentially exacerbating pest pressures on crops without adequate cold season mortality checks traditionally provided by harsher winters. Additionally, altered precipitation patterns coupled with milder air masses can lead to increased incidences of rain-on-snow events, contributing to rapid runoff instead of gradual springtime thaw benefits for replenishing soil moisture reserves essential for sustaining vegetation health.

In response to mounting concerns regarding diminishing cold day counts attributed to ongoing climate change phenomena, societies explore adaptive measures alongside mitigative approaches aimed at curbing greenhouse gas outputs. Adaptation strategies encompass enhancing infrastructure resilience against unexpected weather extremes, modifying farming practices suited to evolving agroclimatic zones, and developing contingency plans addressing public safety needs amid fluctuating meteorological circumstances.

Mitigation efforts focus on transitioning energy generation portfolios away from reliance on coal, oil, and natural gas sources toward cleaner alternatives like solar power, wind turbines, hydroelectric facilities, biomass combustion units, etc., capable of satisfying growing demand without substantially elevating ambient thermal loads. International cooperation frameworks exemplified by treaties negotiated within auspices of United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), Paris Agreement provisions specifically targeting stabilization of radiatively active trace constituents near safe thresholds conducive to maintaining ecological balance, underscore collective commitment amongst participating states toward achieving sustainable development goals amidst looming specters posed by unchecked climatological deterioration.

The langley ( Ly ) is a unit of energy distribution over an area ( also called `` density of heat '' ) . It is used to measure solar radiation ( or insolation ) . The unit was named after Samuel Pierpont Langley ( 1834-1906 ) in 1947 .

Laguna Beach is a seaside resort city located in southern Orange County , California , in the United States . It is known for a mild year-round climate , scenic coves , environmental preservation , and artist community . The population in the 2010 census was 22,723 .   Historically a territory of Paleoindians , the Tongva people and then Mexico , the location became part of the United States following the Mexican -- American War . Laguna Beach was settled in the 1870s , officially founded in 1887 and , in 1927 its current government was incorporated as a city . In 1944 , the city adopted a council-manager form for its government . The city has remained relatively isolated from urban encroachment by its surrounding hills , limited highway access , and a dedicated greenbelt . The Laguna Beach coastline is protected by 5.88 mi of state marine reserve and an additional 1.21 mi of state conservation area .

The retention period of information is an aspect of records and information management ( RIM ) and the records life cycle . It identifies the duration of time for which the information should be maintained or `` retained '' , irrespective of format ( paper , electronic , or other ) . Retention periods vary on different types of information , based on content and a variety of other factors including : internal organizational need , regulatory requirements for inspection or audit , legal statutes of limitation , involvement in litigation , taxation and financial reporting needs , as well as other factors as defined by local , regional , state , national and/or international governing entities .   Once an applicable retention period has elapsed for a given type or series of information , and all holds/moratoriums have been released , the information is typically destroyed using an approved and effective destruction method , which renders the information completely and irreversibly unusable via any means . Information with historical value beyond its `` usable value '' may be accessioned to the custody of an archive organization for permanent or extended long-term preservation .

Kosovo ( -LSB- ˈkɒsəvoʊ , _ ˈkoʊ - -RSB- Kosova , -LSB- kɔsɔva -RSB- or Kosovë ; Косово ) is a disputed territory and partially recognised state in Southeastern Europe that declared independence from Serbia in February 2008 as the Republic of Kosovo ( Republika e Kosovës Република Косово / Republika Kosovo ) .   Kosovo is landlocked in the central Balkan Peninsula . With its strategic position in the Balkans , it serves as an important link in the connection between central and south Europe , the Adriatic Sea , and Black Sea . Its capital and largest city is Pristina , and other major urban areas include Prizren , Peć and Gjakova . It is bordered by Albania to the southwest , the Republic of Macedonia to the southeast , Montenegro to the west and the uncontested territory of Serbia to the north and east . While Serbia recognises administration of the territory by Kosovo 's elected government , it continues to claim it as its own Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija .   Kosovo 's history dates back to the Paleolithic age , which was envolved by the Vinča , Starčevo and the Baden cultures . During the Classical times , the country was inhabited by the Illyrian-Dardanian and Celtic people . In 168 BC , the area was anexed the by Romans . In the Middle ages , the country was conquered by the Byzantine , Bulgarian and Serbian Empires . The Battle of Kosovo of 1389 is considered to be one of the defining moments in Serbian medieval history . The country was the core of the Serbian medieval state , which has also been the seat of the Serbian Orthodox Church from the 14th century , when its status was upgraded into a patriarchate .   After being part of the Ottoman Empire from the 15th to the early 20th century , in the late 19th century , Kosovo became the centre of the Albanian national awakening with the League of Prizren . As a result of the defeat in the First Balkan War from 1912 to 1913 , the Ottomans ceded the Vilayet of Kosovo to the Balkan League ; the Kingdom of Serbia took its larger part , while the Kingdom of Montenegro annexed the western part Metohija , before both countries joined the Kingdom of Yugoslavia after first World War . Subsequently a period of Yugoslav unitarianism in the Kingdom , the post-World War II Yugoslav constitution established the Autonomous Province of Kosovo and Metohija within the Yugoslav constituent Republic of Serbia . Tensions between the Albanian and Serbian communities in the nation simmered throughout the 20th century and occasionally erupted into major violence . As a result , the Kosovo War began in March 1998 until June 1999 , where 13,548 civilians were killed including 90 % of Kosovo-Albanians were displaced at that time . In 2008 , the declaration of independence was adopted on February 17 , 2008 by the Parliament of Kosovo .   Long-term ethnic tensions between Kosovo 's Albanian and Serb populations left the territory ethnically divided , resulting in inter-ethnic violence , culminating in the Kosovo War of 1998 -- 99 , part of the wider regional Yugoslav Wars . The war ended with a military intervention of NATO , which forced the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia to withdraw its troops from Kosovo , which became a UN protectorate under UNSCR 1244 . On 17 February 2008 Kosovo 's Parliament declared independence . It has since gained diplomatic recognition as a sovereign state by , Taiwan , the Sovereign Military Order of Malta , the Cook Islands and Niue . Serbia refuses to recognise Kosovo as a state , although with the Brussels Agreement of 2013 it has accepted the legitimacy of Kosovar institutions . Kosovo has a lower-middle-income economy and has experienced solid economic growth over the last decade by international financial institutions , and has experienced growth every year since the onset of the global financial crisis in 2008 .

Kyneton ( -LSB- ˈkaɪntən -RSB- ) is a town in the Macedon Ranges region of Victoria , Australia . The Calder Freeway bypasses Kyneton to the north and east . The town was named after the English village of Kineton , Warwickshire .   The town has three main streets : Mollison Street , Piper Street and High Street . Piper Street has the oldest streetscape of these , and still has many of its original buildings . The railway station , about 91 km from Melbourne on the Bendigo railway line , is a terminus for two weekday peak-hour trains . The town is the council seat of the Shire of Macedon Ranges . At the 2011 census , Kyneton had a population of 6,629 .   Kyneton is home to mineral springs , the Campaspe River , botanical gardens and historic houses , many with bluestone architecture .

The reverdie is an old French poetic genre , which celebrates the arrival of spring . Literally , it means `` re-greening '' . Often the poet will encounter Spring , symbolized by a beautiful woman .   Originating in the troubadour ballads of the early Middle Ages , reverdies were very popular during the time of Chaucer . English examples from that era include Sumer is icumen in and Lenten ys come with love to toune . T. S. Eliot 's The Waste Land and William Carlos Williams ' Spring and All are both considered to be modern examples of the genre .   The reverdie forms the basis of the Irish aisling , in which the speaker meets Ireland lamenting her woes .

Red hair occurs naturally in 1 -- 2 % of the human population . It occurs more frequently ( 2 -- 6 % ) in people of northern or western European ancestry , and less frequently in other populations . Red hair appears most commonly in people with two copies of a recessive allele on chromosome 16 which produces an altered version of the MC1R protein .   Red hair varies in hues from a deep burgundy or bright copper ( reddish-brown or auburn ) through to burnt orange or red-orange and strawberry blond . It is characterized by high levels of the reddish pigment pheomelanin and relatively low levels of the dark pigment eumelanin . It is associated with fair skin color , lighter eye colors ( gray , blue , green , and hazel ) , freckles , and sensitivity to ultraviolet light .   Cultural reactions have varied from ridicule to admiration ; many common stereotypes exist regarding redheads and they are often portrayed as fiery-tempered .   The term redhead has been in use since at least 1510 .

Landing is the last part of a flight , where a flying animal , aircraft , or spacecraft returns to the ground . When the flying object returns to water , the process is called alighting , although it is commonly called `` landing , '' `` touchdown '' or `` splashdown '' as well . A normal aircraft flight would include several parts of flight including taxi , takeoff , climb , cruise , descent and landing .


Question: The impact of climate change will result in a decline of chilly periods and frosty episodes as well. This transformation indicates that we might experience fewer instances of freezing weather conditions due to alterations caused by climatic changes. However, it's crucial to understand that this reduction doesn't necessarily mean milder winters overall but rather an alteration in temperature patterns leading up to more unpredictable seasonal shifts.

 Impacts of Reduced Cold Days Due to Climate Change

Climate change, predominantly fueled by escalating greenhouse gas emissions from anthropogenic sources, has ushered significant alterations into various facets of weather phenomena globally. Amongst myriad consequences, there’s a notable decrease in the frequency of cold days and extended periods of low temperatures. Scientific evidence supports the notion that human actions play a pivotal role in accelerating these trends. Observations across different regions highlight retreating glaciers, altered phenological cycles—such as premature blossoming—and shifts in crop yields, all indicative of warmer climates.

Future scenarios hinge upon collective responses through stringent climate policies aimed at curbing emissions alongside adaptive measures against inevitable changes. Mitigation strategies encompassing reduced carbon footprints can potentially cap global warming under 2°C above preindustrial benchmarks by century-end. Conversely, laissez-faire approaches leading to unchecked fossil fuel exploitation project a bleaker outlook with up to 4°C rise. Such heightened temperatures exacerbate adaptation challenges while amplifying risks associated with adverse outcomes.

Addressing near-term climate issues holds substantial sway over mitigating long-term repercussions; hence, proactive engagement becomes imperative for sustainable futures. Alternative interventions like geoengineering remain part of broader discussions but require careful evaluation considering ecological implications. Ultimately, concerted international cooperation remains key to navigating uncertainties brought forth by diminishing cold day occurrences amidst evolving climatic landscapes.

In chemistry , recrystallization is a technique used to purify chemicals . By dissolving both impurities and a compound in an appropriate solvent , either the desired compound or impurities can be removed from the solution , leaving the other behind . It is named for the crystals often formed when the compound precipitates out . Alternatively , recrystallization can refer to the natural growth of larger ice crystals at the expense of smaller ones .

In the sport of cricket , a declaration occurs when a captain declares his team 's innings closed and a forfeiture occurs when a captain chooses to forfeit an innings . Declaration and forfeiture are covered in Law 14 of the laws of cricket . This concept applies only to matches in which each team is scheduled to bat in two innings ; Law 14 specifically does not apply in any form of limited overs cricket .

A diminutive is a word which has been modified to convey a slighter degree of its root meaning , to convey the smallness of the object or quality named , or to convey a sense of intimacy or endearment . A ( abbreviated ) is a word-formation device used to express such meanings ; in many languages , such forms can be translated as `` little '' and diminutives can also be formed as multi-word constructions such as `` Tiny Tim '' . Diminutives are used frequently when speaking to small children or when expressing extreme tenderness and intimacy to an adult . As such , they are often employed for nicknames and pet names . The opposite of the diminutive form is the augmentative .   In many languages , formation of diminutives by adding suffixes is a productive part of the language . A ( example in Polish : dzwon → dzwonek → dzwoneczek ; example in Spanish perro → perrito → perritito ) is a diminutive form with two diminutive suffixes rather than one . While many languages apply a grammatical diminutive to nouns , a few -- including Dutch , Latin , Polish , Macedonian , Czech and Russian -- also use it for adjectives and even other parts of speech . In English the alteration of meaning is often conveyed through clipping , making the words shorter and more colloquial . Diminutives formed by adding affixes in other languages are often longer and not necessarily understood as colloquial . Some languages can form even triple diminutives .   In some contexts , diminutives are also employed in a pejorative sense , to denote that someone or something is weak or childish . For example , one of the last of the Western Roman emperors was named Romulus Augustus , but this was diminuted to `` Romulus Augustulus '' to express his powerlessness .

A rain shadow is a dry area on the leeward side of a mountainous area ( away from the wind ) . The mountains block the passage of rain-producing weather systems and cast a `` shadow '' of dryness behind them . Wind and moist air is drawn by the prevailing winds towards the top of the mountains , where it condenses and precipitates before it crosses the top . The air , without much moisture left , advances behind the mountains creating a drier side called the `` rain shadow '' .

Random or randomness , is the property of lacking any sensible predictability .   Random may also refer to :

Definite article reduction ( DAR ) is the term used in recent linguistic work to refer to the use of vowel-less forms of the definite article the in Northern dialects of English English , for example in the Yorkshire dialect and accent .

Question: The impact of climate change will result in a decline of frost events and extended periods with below freezing temperature occurrences as well.

 Climate Change: Diminishing Cold Days & Spells
Climate change continues to reshape weather patterns globally, notably decreasing occurrences of extreme cold events. Scientific evidence reveals prolonged reductions in both average temperatures below freezing points and instances of severe winter conditions. These shifts arise predominantly from anthropogenic influences - namely increased carbon dioxide levels resulting largely from burning fossil fuels since Industrial Revolution timescales. Although natural variations contribute marginally; man-made alterations significantly outweigh any historical precedents. Consequently, fewer frigid episodes now characterize many regions' annual cycles compared against previous centuries baselines. Such transformations impact societal structures alongside ecological frameworks necessitating adaptive strategies across multiple sectors ranging healthcare provision through agricultural planning methodologies.

A day is a unit of time . In common usage , it is either an interval equal to 24 hours or daytime , the consecutive period of time during which the Sun is above the horizon . The period of time during which the Earth completes one rotation with respect to the Sun is called a solar day . Several definitions of this universal human concept are used according to context , need and convenience . In 1960 , the second was redefined in terms of the orbital motion of the Earth , and was designated the SI base unit of time . The unit of measurement `` day '' , redefined in 1960 as 86 400 SI seconds and symbolized d , is not an SI unit , but is accepted for use with SI . A civil day is usually 86 400 seconds , plus or minus a possible leap second in Coordinated Universal Time ( UTC ) , and occasionally plus or minus an hour in those locations that change from or to daylight saving time . The word day may also refer to a day of the week or to a calendar date , as in answer to the question , `` On which day ? '' The life patterns of humans and many other species are related to Earth 's solar day and the day-night cycle ( see circadian rhythms ) .   In recent decades the average length of a solar day on Earth has been about 86 400.002 seconds ( 24.000 000 6 hours ) and there are about 365.242 2 solar days in one mean tropical year . Because celestial orbits are not perfectly circular , and thus objects travel at different speeds at various positions in their orbit , a solar day is not the same length of time throughout the orbital year . A day , understood as the span of time it takes for the Earth to make one entire rotation  with respect to the celestial background or a distant star ( assumed to be fixed ) , is called a stellar day . This period of rotation is about 4 minutes less than 24 hours ( 23 hours 56 minutes and 4.1 seconds ) and there are about 366.242 2 stellar days in one mean tropical year ( one stellar day more than the number of solar days ) . Mainly due to tidal effects , the Earth 's rotational period is not constant , resulting in further minor variations for both solar days and stellar `` days '' . Other planets and moons have stellar and solar days of different lengths to Earth 's .

A repeal is the removal or reversal of a law . There are two basic types of repeal , a repeal with a re-enactment ( or replacement ) of the repealed law , or a repeal without any replacement .   Removal of secondary legislation is normally referred to as revocation rather than repeal in the United Kingdom and Ireland . Under the common law of England and Wales , the effect of repealing a statute was `` to obliterate it completely from the records of Parliament as though it had never been passed . '' This , however , is now subject to savings provisions within the Interpretation Act 1978 .   In parliamentary procedure , the motion to rescind , repeal , or annul is used to cancel or countermand an action or order previously adopted by the assembly .

Landfall is the event of a storm moving over land after being over water . When a waterspout makes landfall it becomes a regular tornado , which can then cause damage inland . When a fair weather waterspout makes landfall it usually dissipates quickly as it loses the inflow of warm air into the vortex .

Koro is a culture-specific syndrome delusional disorder in which an individual has an overpowering belief that one 's genitalia are retracting and will disappear , despite the lack of any true longstanding changes to the genitals . Koro is also known as shrinking penis , and it is listed in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders . The syndrome occurs worldwide , and mass hysteria of genital-shrinkage anxiety has a history in Africa , Asia , and Europe . In the United States and Europe , the syndrome is commonly known as genital retraction syndrome . The condition can be diagnosed through psychological assessment along with physical examination to rule out genuine disorders of the genitalia that could be causing true retraction .

Dating is a stage of romantic or sexual relationships in humans whereby two or more people meet socially , possibly as friends or with the aim of each assessing the other 's suitability as a prospective partner in a more committed intimate relationship or marriage . It can be a form of courtship that consists of social activities done by the couple . The protocols and practices of dating , and the terms used to describe it , vary considerably from country to country and over time . While the term has several meanings , the most frequent usage refers to two or more people exploring whether they are romantically or sexually compatible by participating in dates with the other . With the use of modern technology , people can date via telephone or computer or meet in person .   This term may also refer to two or more people who have already decided they share romantic or sexual feelings toward each other . These people will have dates on a regular basis , and they may or may not be having sexual relations . This period of courtship is sometimes seen as a precursor to engagement or marriage . Some cultures require people to wait until a certain age to begin dating , which has been a source of controversy .

Retrograde amnesia ( RA ) is a loss of memory-access to events that occurred , or information that was learned , before an injury or the onset of a disease . It tends to negatively affect episodic , autobiographical , and declarative memory while usually keeping procedural memory intact with no difficulty for learning new knowledge . RA can be temporally graded or more permanent based on the severity of its cause and is usually consistent with Ribot 's Law : where subjects are more likely to lose memories closer to the traumatic incident than more remote memories . The type of information that is forgotten can be very specific , like a single event , or more general , resembling generic amnesia . It is not to be confused with anterograde amnesia , which deals with the inability to form new memories following the onset of an injury or disease .

Devolution is the statutory delegation of powers from the central government of a sovereign state to govern at a subnational level , such as a regional or local level . It is a form of administrative decentralization . Devolved territories have the power to make legislation relevant to the area .   Devolution differs from federalism in that the devolved powers of the subnational authority may be temporary and are reversible , ultimately residing with the central government . Thus , the state remains de jure unitary . Legislation creating devolved parliaments or assemblies can be repealed or amended by central government in the same way as any statute . In federal systems , by contrast , sub-unit government is guaranteed in the constitution , so the powers of the sub-units can not be withdrawn unilaterally by the central government ( i.e. without the consent of the sub-units being granted through the process of constitutional amendment ) . The sub-units therefore have a lower degree of protection under devolution than under federalism .

Defrosted is the second album by American rock band Frijid Pink . Released in the summer of 1970 , the album is more blues-based hard rock than its predecessor , yet still contains the characteristic fuzz guitar sound featured prominently on the group 's first album , Frijid Pink . This is the last album to feature Kelly Green ( Tom Beaudry ) and Gary Ray Thompson ; their departure from the group soon followed , fueled by an ego-driven notion that ` they ' were Frijid Pink . The band were on the brink of major success at that time , but this breach of contract essentially ruined their chances . The LP reached only # 149 on U.S. charts , although the debut one reached # 11 ; the track `` Sing A Song For Freedom '' as a single made # 55 in the U.S.A. in July 1970 and # 22 in Canada that September .  German CD release ( 1997 , Repertoire Records ) includes four bonus tracks taken from 1971 and 1972 singles .

Question: The impact of climate change will result in a decline of chilly days and extended periods with low temperatures as well.

 Impacts of Climate Change: Reduction in Cold Days
As per extensive research conducted within the field of climatology, there exists overwhelming evidence indicating that ongoing climate change leads directly to reductions in both frequency and intensity of cold weather events globally. Scientists concur based upon empirical data analysis showing significant decreases across multiple regions experiencing traditionally colder climates year-round. These findings align closely with predictions made by leading experts affiliated with prestigious institutions around the world who unanimously acknowledge humanity’s role through increased carbon dioxide emissions contributing significantly towards observed trends. Despite some dissenting voices proposing alternative explanations, rigorous peer review consistently confirms mainstream understanding regarding anthropogenically-driven alterations to historical meteorological norms resulting specifically in fewer instances where temperatures drop below freezing point compared against historical averages prior to Industrial Revolution era onset circa late eighteenth century onwards until present day context wherein urgent action remains imperative if we hope achieve stabilization before irreversible damage occurs beyond repairability threshold levels already crossed according recent assessments published under auspices United Nations Framework Convention On Climate Change secretariat headquartered Geneva Switzerland alongside numerous national academies science endorsing aforementioned conclusions unequivocally without reservation whatsoever given current state knowledge available thus far developed throughout decades long collaborative effort spanning continents disciplines alike united common goal preserving habitable environment future generations inherit regardless socioeconomic status cultural background religious belief system etcetera ad infinitum et ceteris paribus mutatis mutandis quod erat demonstrandum finem.

Kol Nidre -LSB- ˈkɔːl_nᵻˈdreɪ -RSB- ( also known as Kol Nidrey or Kol Nidrei ) ( Aramaic : כָּל נִדְרֵי ) is an Aramaic declaration recited in the synagogue before the beginning of the evening service on every Yom Kippur , the Day of Atonement . Strictly speaking , it is not a prayer , although commonly spoken of as if it were . This dry legal formula and its ceremonial accompaniment have been charged with emotional undertones since the medieval period , creating a dramatic introduction to Yom Kippur on what is often dubbed `` Kol Nidrei night '' . It is written in Aramaic , not Hebrew . Its name is taken from the opening words , meaning all vows . The formula proactively annuls any personal or religious oaths or prohibitions made upon oneself to God for the next year , so as to preemptively avoid the sin of breaking vows made to God which can not be or are not upheld .   Kol Nidrei has had an eventful history , both in itself and in its influence on the legal status of the Jews . Introduced into the liturgy despite the opposition of some rabbinic authorities , it was attacked in the course of time by some rabbis and in the 19th century expunged from the prayer book by many communities of western Europe .   The term Kol Nidrei refers not only to the actual declaration , but is also popularly used as a name for the entire Yom Kippur evening service .

The retention period of information is an aspect of records and information management ( RIM ) and the records life cycle . It identifies the duration of time for which the information should be maintained or `` retained '' , irrespective of format ( paper , electronic , or other ) . Retention periods vary on different types of information , based on content and a variety of other factors including : internal organizational need , regulatory requirements for inspection or audit , legal statutes of limitation , involvement in litigation , taxation and financial reporting needs , as well as other factors as defined by local , regional , state , national and/or international governing entities .   Once an applicable retention period has elapsed for a given type or series of information , and all holds/moratoriums have been released , the information is typically destroyed using an approved and effective destruction method , which renders the information completely and irreversibly unusable via any means . Information with historical value beyond its `` usable value '' may be accessioned to the custody of an archive organization for permanent or extended long-term preservation .

Lately is the first extended play recorded by American band Ivy , released in May 1994 by Seed Records . Developed in the same year as the formation of the group , Lately is a French pop album with acoustic and general pop influences . Originally conceived by members Dominique Durand and Andy Chase , the pair recruited Adam Schlesinger for additional production and lyrics . Sessions took place in New York City and Paris , where they recorded four original tracks and a cover of Orange Juice 's 1984 song `` I Guess I 'm Just a Little Too Sensitive '' .   `` I Hate December '' was released as the EP 's only single on January 12 , 1996 , preceded by a music video that was filmed earlier in 1995 . Lately was praised for its non-formulaic production and original material . Ivy was also outed for being unlike other New York City bands . The EP was reissued on August 26 , 2003 after Ivy transferred their entire music catalog to Unfiltered Records , a record label founded by Chase during work for his side project Brookville .

Redistribution is the process , used in many Commonwealth countries , by which electoral districts are added , removed , or otherwise changed . Redistribution is a form of boundary delimitation that changes electoral district boundaries , usually in response to periodic census results . Redistribution is required by law or constitution at least every decade in most representative democracy systems that use first-past-the-post or similar electoral systems to prevent geographic malapportionment . The act of manipulation of electoral districts to favour a candidate or party is called gerrymandering .

Repeatability or test -- retest reliability is the variation in measurements taken by a single person or instrument on the same item , under the same conditions , and in a short period of time . A less-than-perfect test -- retest reliability causes test -- retest variability . Such variability can be caused by , for example , intra-individual variability and intra-observer variability . A measurement may be said to be repeatable when this variation is smaller than a pre-determined acceptance criterion .   Test -- retest variability is practically used , for example , in medical monitoring of conditions . In these situations , there is often a predetermined `` critical difference '' , and for differences in monitored values that are smaller than this critical difference , the possibility of pre-test variability as a sole cause of the difference may be considered in addition to , for examples , changes in diseases or treatments .

Knee highs are hosiery that cover the feet and legs up to the knee . A fashion accessory for a casual and classic cool or warm weather apparel . Typically worn by women in many societies , they are sometimes worn with modern semi-formal attire . Unlike ordinary socks , they are generally made of nylon or other stocking materials . There were also different types and uses of knee highs for men .   Knee highs became popular during the 1960s and 1970s with the increase in popularity of the miniskirt . Knee highs at times form a part of girls ' school uniforms . They come in many colors and patterns and transparency levels . They are more popular in cold weather , because they keep the feet and lower legs warm . They are sometimes worn with dresses or skirts whose hemline is below the knee , and with trousers and leggings to keep the feet warm , and with boots to catch perspiration .

Radiology is a specialty that uses medical imaging to diagnose and treat diseases seen within the body . A variety of imaging techniques such as X-ray radiography , ultrasound , computed tomography ( CT ) , nuclear medicine including positron emission tomography ( PET ) , and magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI ) are used to diagnose and/or treat diseases . Interventional radiology is the performance of ( usually minimally invasive ) medical procedures with the guidance of imaging technologies .   The acquisition of medical images is usually carried out by the Radiographer , often known as a Radiologic Technologist . Depending on location , the Diagnostic Radiologist , or Reporting Radiographer , then interprets or `` reads '' the images and produces a report of their findings and impression or diagnosis . This report is then transmitted to the Clinician who requested the imaging , either routinely or emergently . Imaging exams are stored digitally in the picture archiving and communication system ( PACS ) where they can be viewed by all members of the healthcare team within the same health system and compared later on with future imaging exams .

The knuckle mnemonic is a means of remembering the number of days in the months of the Julian and Gregorian calendars .

The second cholera pandemic ( 1829 -- 1849 ) , also known as the Asiatic Cholera Pandemic , was a cholera pandemic that reached from India across western Asia to Europe , Great Britain and the Americas , as well as east to China and Japan . Cholera caused more deaths , more quickly , than any other epidemic disease in the 19th century . It is exclusively a human disease , and it can spread through many means of travel , such as by persons via caravan , ship , and aeroplanes . Cholera is known most popularly to spread through warm fecal-contaminated river waters and contaminated foods . The causative microorganisms ( Cholera vibrio ) flourish by reaching humans . It is treatable with oral re-hydration therapy and preventable with adequate sanitation and water treatment .

Late night television is one of the dayparts in television broadcast programming . It follows prime time and precedes the overnight television programming graveyard slot . The slot generally runs from about 11:30 PM to 2:00 AM local time , with variations according to the time zone and broadcaster .   In the United States and Canada the term is synonymous with the late-night talk show , a type of comedic talk and variety show . Thus , the late night programming block is considered more important in North America . On most major-network stations , a late local newscast airs at the beginning of the block . ( This is nearly universal in Canada , as late local news is an easy way to fulfill Canadian content requirements . )   In the United Kingdom , the late night spot is from 11:00 PM to 12:30 AM and not seen as a priority ; ITV and Channel 4 program repeats in the time slot , and the BBC 's channels primarily show BBC World News , air movies or replay documentaries . Similarly , Australian television primarily airs American late shows , lower-priority imported series or overflows of sports programming in the late night time slot .   On cable television , programming strategies in this time slot include timeshifts of prime time programs and , in the case of children 's television channels , signing-off and allowing more adult-oriented fare for the overnight hours under another brand . An example is the children 's channel Nickelodeon , which changes over to Nick at Nite at an hour when most pre-adolescent children go to sleep . Nick at Nite typically airs series programming , such as reruns of sitcoms , that may have coarser language and more adult themes .   After 11 , Japan airs adult talk or variety shows as well as late night anime . This is also true of the United States-based cable channel Cartoon Network , which targets children and young teens during daytime and primetime hours , but changes over to its Adult Swim brand in late-night slots .
