France, Brazil Agree on Climate Policy Push
France and Brazil have agreed on a common policy to push industrialized nations toward massive cuts in greenhouse gas emissions.

French President Nicholas Sarkozy and Brazilian leader Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva announced the plan Saturday in a joint document. The agreement urges the world's top carbon-emitting nations, including the United States and China, to significantly curb those emissions by 2050.

The two leaders are calling for cooperation between developed and emerging nations in order to meet international climate change goals.

Brazil pledged Friday to reduce its emissions up to 39 percent by 2020, largely through controlling deforestation. That pledge was hailed Saturday by the head of the European Union executive as a "potentially decisive step" in the fight against climate change.

World leaders will meet in Copenhagen next month to negotiate a successor to the Kyoto Protocol, which expires in 2012.

The U.S. has not ratified the Kyoto treaty.

The U.N. climate change conference will be held December 7-18, and the U.N. says 40 heads of state have pledged to attend.

U.N. scientists say rich countries must cut carbon emissions by 25-40 percent from 1990 levels by 2020, to prevent the earth's temperature from rising at a rate that could trigger climate catastrophe.

Religious views of Kurt Godel........

Gödel was a convinced theist. He rejected the notion that God was impersonal. He believed firmly in an afterlife, stating: “I am convinced of the afterlife, independent of theology. If the world is rationally constructed, there must be an afterlife." He said about Islam: “I like Islam: it is a consistent [or consequential] idea of religion and open-minded."

But say you are playing no limit
there is no such game, there are always constraints....no limit is a myth

but a great player like Doyle Brunson can beat 95% of the people in the world and not even look at his cards, as long as no one knew he was not looking. ""

easy to defeat this guys edge by adapting to his terms, if he plays blind so should the opponent, then the 95% figure used in your comment would simply be erased.

a word science and the importance of science.

science is just iterated compounding interest, its a limited set of facts and figures subject to terms itself does not hold dear, one of them is Degrees of Freedom....there are many others of course.

We are all nuts and live a life of illusion. So how do we sift out the ilusion. Science.

Hit reset, and find your own contradictions.

the rhetoric of poly science rings through, adds no value, your reply is full of superficial description that is all too circular.
