Ice cores, which are long cylinders scientists extract from glaciers, ice sheets or ice caps, contain gas bubbles, pollen, dust particles, or chemical isotopes that give scientists clues about what Earth’s temperature and atmosphere were like when the ice caps first formed.
When I was in the T20 squad, I was the only one short of experience, everyone else had over 100 T20 caps.
I didn’t really feel like a girly girl. I didn’t want to wear boob tubes and flared trousers and disco clothes. Then when punk came along it was like, ‘Oh great, I can wear ripped jeans and manky t-shirts and flat caps.’ It was just perfect timing for me.
My style is cinematic; it is a touch of French woman of the ’60s and American hippie with a Brooklyn edge. I love wearing wide-brim hats, newsboy caps, mini dresses and sheer blouses with details.
Demanding that our leaders take action on climate change is about a lot more than polar bears and ice caps; it’s about safeguarding our health, preserving our prosperity, and protecting the future of our children.
I came from the music business, which reputedly has the biggest egos, but I really think the airline world caps it.
You wouldn’t believe that I still have the bikers with the caps to the side at my door, ringing the doorbell.
The more books there are on shelves, the more will be sold. Once you get to the level of The Secret and have 40-100 copies in many stores, managers have almost no choice but to put them in prime real estate like front-of-store, end caps, or front window.
I’m aware how special an achievement 100 caps is because of the players that have come before me and the amount they’ve given to English cricket.
107 caps isn’t bad for someone who isn’t ‘a top, top player’, is it? I never expected to get that amount of caps. When I made my debut, I set myself the personal target of trying to get 50 caps and score 10 goals if I could. So to have 107 is something I am really proud of, particularly being among those names.
I’ve never, ever set my sights on getting 100 – it’s more my family. My dad’s been counting down the caps for every single home game, and he’s been to every single one I’ve played in England.
Playing nuts is a game like any other, neither better than tops, nor worse than cards. The game is played in various ways. There are ‘holes’ and ‘bank’ and ‘caps.’ But every game finishes up in the same way. One boy loses, another wins. And, as always, he who wins is a clever fellow, a smart fellow, a good fellow.
People have been turned away from hospitals simply because they have no insurance. People have been put out of hospitals because they have reached the lifetime caps.
To baseball players, our caps are sacred. We integrate our caps into our strange routines and superstitions, removing and replacing them on our heads with ritual precision so they sit just so.

A graduation ceremony is an event where the commencement speaker tells thousands of students dressed in identical caps and gowns that ‘individuality’ is the key to success.
Our globe is under new dramatic environmental pressure: our globe is warming, our ice caps melting, our glaciers receding, our coral is dying, our soils are eroding, our water tables falling, our fisheries are being depleted, our remaining rainforests shrinking. Something is very, very wrong with our eco-system.

Every day, TV, newspapers, and the Internet bombard us with a message that we’re destroying the earth. Ice caps are melting, rivers are dying, polar bears are drowning, and trees are doing something.
