Barack Obama is a master at grabbing and keeping his audience's attention, which is the number one goal of any public speaker. How does he do it? Here are five key lessons from Obama's rhetorical playbook.
Jo-Ann Stores is posting impressive sales and earnings numbers and is an example of a retail sector on which Walmart doesn't have a steel grip.
Even smart people make financial moves that are downright illogical. Emotions and superstitions have a sneaky way of keeping you from rational financial decisions. But dumb choices can have serious, real-world consequences. Here are some of the biggest blunders we all make, plus tips from the experts on how to keep cool.
A plan to help pay for protected open space in the Bay Area is at risk.
Organizers had a year to get 7,500 orders for special license plates that feature the Golden Gate Bridge and the phrase "Nature Within Reach" but so far, only about 350 orders have been filled, the Chronicle reported.
The $50 for the plates would go to the California Coastal Conservancy to help protect open space, restore and protect habitat and wetlands and provide public access and trails.
Aside from the commuter trains that pass though, but never stop, the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge is a local landscape where time feels as if it moves in reverse. It is 30,000 acres of mud, marsh, abandoned wooden buildings and colorful remains of the Cargill Salt Flats. Now, the federal government is restoring them to wetlands, and with this transition comes scientific opportunity.
The state is seeking a new operator for a gun range in the Atterbury Fish and Wildlife Area after its private manager told the Department of Natural Resources that he is losing too much money to stay in business. Ron Mason, who has managed the site near the Indiana National Guard's Camp Atterbury for three years, said 2,000 to 3,000 people hone their skills at the facility each month. But that's down 30 percent to 40 percent from past years, despite a facelift in 2008 that more than doubled the size of
Tanjung Aru Beach will lose its appeal as the city's best recreational haunt if the authorities continue to ignore repeated warnings to ensure zero discharge of effluents into the South China Sea. Regular beachgoers alerted Daily Express about a strange phenomena happening to its sandy shore - blotches of green algae that emits a smell when disturbed. They said it is evidence that years of unchecked discharge of sewage effluents from hawker stalls, residences, condominiums and restaurants in the townsh
The city has sent all residents a required notice that Gloucester's drinking water is in violation of the chemical compound trihalomethanes, which is created from the breakdown of chlorine. But city officials also noted that the situation is not an "emergency" and that residents do not have to take any action regarding their water use. "Although this is not an emergency," Larry Durkin, the city's environmental engineer, said in the notice, mailed to all city water users last Wednesday, "you have a rig
Sea lice bites, swimmers' rash, summer rash - whatever you want to call it, it's rife at this time of year and drives swimmers crazy. St John, in releasing statistics from the Christmas and New Year period last year in anticipation of another busy month, has warned of a niggly pest that causes irritation for thousands of swimmers each year. "Swimmers' rash" is caused by stings from jellyfish or sea anemone larvae, of which there are hundreds, and in summer the rise in sea water temperature causes the
garden@dallasnews.com Dale Clark is a butterfly farmer in Glenn Heights. There's one Texas wildflower that's at its showiest after a hard freeze. When the mercury dips into the upper 20s, frostweed ( Verbesina virginica ) earns its name, as the sap within its stalks bursts forth to form icy formations along its lower stems.
Pat Schlarbaum, Natural Resource Technician for the Wildlife Diversity Program, and Ron Andrews, Wildlife Biologist will be giving presentations as part of the "Soriée with the Swans" program set for Saturday, Jan. 2 at the Schildberg Quarry in Atlantic. The quarry is located on the northwest edge of Atlantic on the north side of Highway 83. The event is sponsored by the officials from the Cass County Conservation Board, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, and the Atlantic Public Library.
His Legacy took the audience to places that have shaped Suzuki's life, both dark and light, such as the WWII Japanese camp in British Columbia where his family was interned, to Hiroshima where his grandparents, who took the Canadian government's one-way-ticket offer after the war, moved and died within a year, and to Haida Gwaii where Suzuki was adopted into the eagle clan. But the talk also went into Suzuki's long-time frustration at the political obsession for economic growth at the sacrifice of nature
It will cost a Cache County municipality a lot of money to recover from contaminated water wells. The Herald Journal of Logan reports that Mendon is looking to borrow up to $880,000 to drill a new well. In August, the city banned outdoor watering and shut down two wells that tested high for nitrates.
VOLUNTEERS are needed to get a unique community project up and running. In an effort to bring the Dalton community together, the Tudor Square Community Interest Company is looking for volunteers to help realise a five-year dream of setting up a canopy in Tudor Square in the town centre. The canopy has been designed to be used in all weathers and for different purposes.
2009 may prove to be an important turning point for tropical forests. Lead by Brazil, which had the lowest extent of deforestation since at least the 1980s, global forest loss likely declined to its lowest level in more than a decade. Critical to the fall in deforestation was the global financial crisis, which dried up credit for forest-destroying activities and contributed to a crash in commodity prices, an underlying driver of deforestation. 2009 was also notable for progress made on REDD, a propose
New rules on landscape irrigation will take effect next week. Starting Jan. 6, Homeowners, farmers and others within the Suwannee River Water Management District will be asked to limit landscape irrigation to one or two days per week, depending on the season. For the first time, the District is implementing a year-round water conservation rule that applies to residential landscaping, public or commercial recreation areas, and public and commercial businesses that aren't regulated by a District-issued
An area fruit processor may solve a growing, expensive problem: how the industry treats its water waste. Grawn-based Cherry Growers Inc. will spend at least $100,000 to pilot the use of air-sparging, a proven treatment for petroleum cleanups, to reverse problems created by the high sugar content in its waste stream. "It's pretty cool and nice that they are doing this," said Janice Heuer, an environmental engineer in the Cadillac office of the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality.
CHEYENNE, Wyo. The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has issued 120 citations to people who claimed dual residence in Wyoming and another state for the purpose of getting resident hunting or fishing licenses. The department says it conducted an investigation into falsified residencies in conjunction with wildlife investigators from Utah, Colorado and Idaho. Investigators cross-checked resident licenses purchased in 2005 and 2006 with those in the other three states.
Continuing to involve the public in planning the future of state forests, the state Department of Conservation and Recreation will sponsor five public forums in February to discuss draft recommendations on the stewardship and management of forest lands within the state parks system. The DCR began the Forest Futures
