Global Freezing and Global Cooling Win Heated Battle Against Global Warming and Climate Change

By Brian H Campbell

If you think about it both sides are proving most climate change is cyclical. I have to admit that I am guilty of joining the parade of global freezing commentary when the weather turns cold. But then the cyclical pattern kicks in and sure enough the weather becomes warm again.

When record cold temperatures and snow accumulations were being reported in the United States, early January record heat was being reported in Australia. And within the same countries record cold and hot temperatures are sometimes recorded on the same day. So what does all this climate change mean? It is climate changing just like climate has always changed.
Consider This
Anthropogenic or man-made global warming has contributed to climate change in some small amounts. Professor Mojib Latif is one of the worlds leading climate modellers. Mr. Latif is from the Leibniz Institute of Marine Sciences at Keil University in Germany. Latif studies temperatures and ocean currents and how they relate to cyclical weather patterns.

Professor Latif stunned the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change by announcing a predicted cooling trend. Being a fellow member of the IPCC the news did not set well with the global warming community. One of their own global warmers told the world we are entering a global cooling period. Now look at what happened next.
Many of the anti global warming crowd misquote Professor Latif
making him look like he is a global warming skeptic. Mr. Latif specifically said. And everyone who knows me knows that I am definitely NOT one of the skeptics. If my name were not Mojib Latif my name would be Global Warming. From this comment we can easily ascertain that Professor Latif believes in global warming but is level headed about the reality of global cooling trends also.

Climate Change is mostly Cyclical - but we should not misquote Professor Latif
I just do not like people being misrepresented, like Mr. Latif, so others can prove their own agenda. Patrick J. Michaels of the Cato Institute is more of a skeptic about global w being of any significance. His credentials are astounding and he has worked on both sides of the debate. He was past President of the American Association of State Climatologists and was a Research Professor of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia for 30 years - just to mention two.
Michaels believes climate change is greatly exaggerated. He said " At the end of the last ice age the arctic was much warmer than it is now - and we survived and prospered." But even Professor Michaels does not believe global warming is a total hoax. It is obvious to these two experts there is some anthropogenic warming but it is to the extent of what degree.

There Lies The Difference
And this is why there are lies and distortions. People are grabbing onto parts of news and information that fits their way of thinking while totally ignoring facts that do not. Icebergs are melting over here. Well, their growing over there. Balance is what we need and this why it is good to see blogs and websites that represent this balance. With the latest news global freezing and global cooling have won this round of fighting.
But wait 10 to 20 years or sooner when the cooling trends may reverse to warming trends - and then reverse back to global cooling. Cyclical weather is what real climate change is all about - climate changes.

How To Find Your Dream Career: Myths & Realities

By Maria Markella

Most people make assumptions about careers. Often these assumptions are based on impressions they get from relatives and friends, from television shows and from workers and jobs that they see in their daily lives.

Impressions are a good place to start when looking for a career because they help people to identify possibilities. But at the same time, impressions can be misleading. They show only a small portion of reality, or worse: no reality at all.
That's when career impressions become career myths.

People make all kinds of false assumptions because they have limited information. For example many people think that there are no opportunities in the manufacturing trades, that all high-paying jobs require a college degree, and that most teachers earn below-average salaries. Non of these myths is true. And believing myths like these limits career choices unnecessarily.
Some career myths are less about occupations that about the working in general. Myths like these can derail a career search and sap motivation.
Here are five common myths and realities, about careers.

Myth #1: There Is One Perfect Job For Me
Reality: There are many occupations and many jobs that you could enjoy. Focusing on finding a single, perfect career is not only intimidating, it's limiting.
Myth #2: I will use all my talents and abilities in this job.
Reality: No one job uses all of your talents. And trying to find one that does will derail your career search.

Myth #3: No one will hire me because I lack experience, have low grades, hace gaps in my work history etc.
Reality: People overcome all kinds of challenges to find satisfying work. Experts say that how you handle adversity is a good indicator of your ability to persevere.
Myth #4: My job has to match my college major or vocational training.
Reality: You need not to restrict your job search to careers related to your degree or training. Most jobs do not specify which college major is needed, even if they require that workers have a college degree.

Myth #5: It's too late to change my career.
Reality: It's never too late to change careers. Workers who change careers come from many backgrounds, age groups, and situations.
Career & Personality Tests
There are a lot career & personality tests online that can help you find fullfiling work, and create a profile for you. The tests should be designed using psychometric knowledge and should be approved by qualified scientists.
Career tests help you identify potential careers, based on your answers to specific questions. Some measure how closely your answers match to those of workers who are already in an occupation. Others match occupations to your personality type, skills or interests.
A good test should provide you with a personalized career strategy. These days things are changing so quickly, that unless your strategy is pesonalized and takes this highly dynamic environment into account, then you are vulnerable to the changes sweeping the job market.
Informational Interviewing

Talking to people about their work is one of the best ways to get accurate information about what a career is like. After all, who would know better about what it takes to a job well or what's a job's benefits and drawbacks are that someone who's already working in it?The goal is to get the facts about an occupation.
Just remember that one person's experience is not universal. Whether a worker talks glowingly or disparagingly about his or her job, another worker in the same job almost surely disagrees. You will need to speak to more than one person and verify the perspectives.

Getting Experience
They say that the best way to get a feel for what a career would be like is to get work experience with it. Of course, it takes a while to get solid, relevant experience, but internships, volunteer work and entry level jobs provide a start. Employers value the skills learned through experience.

Remember that your own experiences are the least likely to fool you. Base your career perceptions on these. Even if you don't start in the job you want, view these opportunities as a chance to get an inside track on the career you covet. Listen. Learn. All experience can work in your favor.
