Guest Post: Are Microgrids the Key to Energy Security? :: By Dawn Santoianni "Energy independence" is a concept that has become part of the political lexicon and touted as a panacea for a downturn economy. Recently, the concept has morphed into "energy security" which encompasses not only a domestic abundance of energy resources, but freedom from energy market manipulation. Still, there are numerous and conflicting definitions for energy security. Does energy security mean using only renewable or carbon-neutral energy resources to prevent further anthropogenic global warming? How do fossil fuels, particularly natural gas, fit into a secure energy future? One thing is certain - we know an energy security failure we when we see it...or worse, experience it. The aftermath of Superstorm Sandy was the most recent example of how vulnerable society is t...

Hobbits and hypotheses | Henry Gee :: All good tales should have a self-consistent back story. If they do, they are amenable to scientific investigation"Why?" If you have a toddler, this is a question that will assail your ears many, many times each day. Why is the sky blue? Why do people get old and die? Why am I here? To a person newly exposed to the world, everything is unfamiliar, and therefore deserving of explanation, even if the encrusted taboos of adulthood are broken in the asking. To a parent, who is old enough to have the luxury of taking everything for granted, it's infuriating. "Scientist" is a name we give to a person who has never really got beyond the toddler stage of inquiry. To a scientist, the world is still full of marvelous phenomena that demand explanation, and in which nothing should ever be taken for gr...

Medicare, the beloved budget buster :: The program is the single biggest factor in the deficit over the long run. But there are no easy fixes.While President Obama spars with congressional Republicans over whether to raise taxes, advocates for the elderly have been girding for a fight that promises to be at least as intense: what to do about the rising cost of Medicare, the federal health insurance program for the elderly and disabled. The program is vital to its beneficiaries, but its expenses are growing far faster than federal revenues or the economy. In fact, it is the single biggest factor in the deficit over the long run. And with multiple forces driving up costs, there's no easy way to solve the budget problems it presents. (Source: L.A.
