WASHINGTON, Oct. 24 /PRNewswire/ -- ICF Consulting announces the launch of its proprietary, new International Carbon Pricing (InCaP) tool, to assist companies with their mid- and long-range emissions strategies. InCaP allows firms to develop international carbon market scenarios and determine how changes in key variables are likely to affect the future price of CO2 allowances and credits. Insights from InCaP help firms position themselves to manage financial exposure given the forecasted market price range. Powered by economic fundamentals, cutting edge market research, and the strength of ICF Consulting's suite of proprietary and licensed energy sector models, InCaP gives firms the fundamental information needed to analyze and create risk management strategies in today's carbon constrained environment.
Earlier this year, the European Union's Emission Trading Scheme (EU ETS) commenced and companies are watching the largest multi-country greenhouse gas (GHG) trading system with great interest. Ratification of the Kyoto Protocol has made it evident that international emissions trading will play a significant role in meeting industry and national GHG targets. The prospects for buying and selling GHG emission reductions in an international market offer new risks and opportunities for businesses.

"Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword obviously never encountered automatic weapons." - General MacArthur "You, you, and you ... Panic. The rest of you, come with me." - U.S. Marine Corp Gunnery Sgt. "Though I Fly Through the Valley of Death ... I Shall Fear No Evil. For I am at 80,000 Feet and Climbing." - At the entrance to the old SR-71 operating base Kadena, Japan "You've never been lost until you've been lost at Mach 3." - Paul F. Crickmore (test pilot) "The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire." "Blue water Navy truism: There are more planes in the ocean than submarines in the sky." From an old carrier sailor "If the wings are traveling faster than the fuselage, it's probably a helicopter -- and therefore, unsafe." "When one engine fails on a twin-engine airplane you always have enough power left to get you to the scene of the crash." "Without ammunition, the USAF would be just another expensive flying club." "What is the similarity between air traffic controllers and pilots? If a pilot screws up, the pilot dies; If ATC screws up, . the pilot dies." "Never trade luck for skill." The three most common expressions (or famous last words) in aviation are: "Why is it doing that?" "Where are we?" and "OH ****!" "Weather forecasts are horoscopes with numbers." "Progress in airline flying: now a flight attendant can get a pilot pregnant." Airspeed, altitude and brains. Two are always needed to successfully complete the flight." "A smooth landing is mostly luck; two in a row is all luck; three in a row is prevarication." "I remember when sex was safe and flying was dangerous." "Mankind has a perfect record in aviation; we never left one up there!" "Flashlights are tubular metal containers kept in a flight bag for the purpose of storing dead batteries." "Flying the airplane is more important than radioing your plight to a person on the ground incapable of understanding or doing anything about it." "When a flight is proceeding incredibly well, something was forgotten." "Just remember, if you crash because of weather, your funeral will be held on a sunny day." Advice given to RAF pilots during WWII: "When a prang (crash) seems inevitable, endeavor to strike the softest, cheapest object in the vicinity as slowly and gently as possible." "The Piper Cub is the safest airplane in the world; it can just barely kill you." - Attributed to Max Stanley (Northrop test pilot) "A pilot who doesn't have any fear probably isn't flying his plane to its maximum." - Jon McBride, astronaut "If you're faced with a forced landing, fly the thing as far into the crash as possible." - Bob Hoover (renowned aerobatic and test pilot) "Never fly in the same cockpit with someone braver than you." "There is no reason to fly through a thunderstorm in peacetime." - Sign over squadron ops desk at Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ, 1970 "If something hasn't broken on your helicopter, it's about to." Basic Flying Rules: "Try to stay in the middle of the air. Do not go near the edges of it. The edges of the air can be recognized by the appearance of ground, buildings, sea, trees and interstellar space. It is much more difficult to fly there." "You know that your landing gear is up and locked when it takes full power to taxi to the terminal."
Wow, I copied that days ago. Some of them still amuse me though

Far off in the distance, the noise of the rushing cars forcing their way through the night air mixes with the soft roar of the wind. A dog bark rings out, piercing the soft whistle of the wind like the crack of a whip. Crickets chirp merrily in the background, like natureās ticking clock. The crimson-leaved tree, barely visible in the fading light, rustles its response to the inquisitive tendrils of the breeze.
Heh. That was part of a nature writing-type assignment for my literature class.

Maybe I misinterpret what you call instinct, but I think that people don't instinctively know what is wrong. Our instinct is only to protect ourselves and try to breed. We need to be sensitized to other people's pain and suffering to comprehend morality, and I would claim sensitized to our own self-interest. What kind of world would we create for ourselves and our ability to pursue our own survival if we allowed everyone to steal and do wrong?

[The reason I don't like hallowe'en is because I grew up with hallowe'en being a very small but somewhat creepy day- we'd maybe have a ghost story and games in the dark and the annual pumpkin carving. It really felt that there might be real ghosts outside. Never went trick or treating. The real deal was six days later, on Guy Fawkes Night, with fireworks and a massive bonfire... that felt like chasing the ghosts away.

"Tell me about it," I said, watching as Dad shook his raincoat off in the living room. "Dad, you're getting everything wet. Knock it off. Have some manners."
"Son, why are you sitting home alone in the dark?"
"We just took a power hit. You guys just stay right there while I go hunt down some candles and flashlights."
As I left the dripping parents standing in a growing puddle on my living room floor, a flash of lightning starkly illuminated the room, casting bright fleeting shadows. In the flash I could have sworn that my father was standing there alone.
"Mom?"
"She threw me out."
"He was, well, YOU know. Get those candles, OK?"
I banged my shin pretty hard on the coffee table. And I heard my tea cup fall to the floor and break.
"Careful, son!"
It was shaping up into a pretty swell evening.

Uh, the ones in that link are pretty fancy and, oh, ornate, and not entirely true to the standard. The general idea is a tunic to the knees, but side slits at about the waist. I'll be wearing comfortable cotton, not that ornate stuff.
