The document discusses the importance of summarization. It states that providing concise multi-sentence summaries is a useful skill, as complex documents can be distilled into their key essence and implications in a brief yet informative manner. The ability to analyze written works and extract the most pertinent details allows for efficient consumption of information.

This document is a rubric checklist for grading students on assignments and participation over multiple days. It lists students' names down the left column and assignments/activities labeled with abbreviations across the top row. Spaces below each abbreviation allow marking student performance with grades to indicate their competency level. A key at the bottom decodes the abbreviations and provides a scale for the grades.
The document discusses guidelines for receiving confessions from others. It states that while any Christian can receive a confession, not all will have the empathy, understanding, discretion, or maturity needed. It's important to find someone trustworthy who can keep confidences and show compassion. When receiving a confession, one should pray for the person, radiate God's love and forgiveness, and keep the content private rather than spreading it as a prayer request. The goal is to provide a safe, non-judgmental space and point to Christ's healing and forgiveness.
This is a statement made at a recent forum on fracking organized by New York State Senate Democrats by Sandra Steingraber, distinguished scholar in residence at Ithaca College. It is posted here in relation to the Dot Earth post “When Publicity Precedes Peer Review in the Fight Over Gas Impacts."

The human rights group Survival International says it has received reports, not yet independently verified, of a massacre of a Yanomami Indian community by gold miners in the Venezuelan portion of the Amazon rain forest. Here's the (Spanish language) appeal for an investigation. The release from Survival International is here: http://www.survivalinternational.org/news/8626
1) The document discusses constraining estimates of climate sensitivity, which is the change in global temperature from a doubling of CO2, using both bottom-up modeling and observational approaches.
2) A simple energy balance climate model is presented and forced using detailed radiative forcing calculations from an emissions-based chemistry transport model.
3) Observations of surface temperature and ocean heat content are used in a statistical model employing Bayesian inference to provide posterior estimates of climate sensitivity and other parameters.
The record jackpot for Italy's state lottery increased to €119 million after no one matched all six numbers in the latest drawing. The jackpot has been growing for months without a winner, fueling lottery fever across Italy and neighboring countries as millions of tickets are sold daily in hopes of winning the historic prize. The next drawing for the still unclaimed jackpot will take place on Thursday.
