How science confounded the year's gloom | Observer editorial :: Higgs boson and landing Curiosity on Mars are just two of the great achievements of the past 12 monthsIn a year that saw Britain suffer double-dip recession; when crippling debt has risen to threaten a record number of households; when the nation faces losing its triple A credit rating; and the economy of the entire planet continues to flounder, it is hard to find many reasons to be cheerful. The human species, which has made so much of its sparkling intellect in recent decades, could fairly be accused of having made a recent hash of global affairs.

Australian politics cools off on climate change – even as the temperature rises :: The 2013 poll will pit rampant denialism against grudging action based on political expediencyIn 2007, a tyro Australian opposition leader called Kevin Rudd held a summit in which he labelled climate change the "great moral challenge of our generation" and, rather optimistically, added "we should be at a stage in this country where climate change is beyond politics".Within months, Rudd swept to power in a landmark election that deposed John Howard, the long-term conservative prime minister and climate-change curmudgeon.Australia, one of the world's leading per capita emitters and the foremost coal exporter on the planet, swiftly signed up to the Kyoto protocol, with the government promising its own cap-and-trade bill. But in 2013, Rudd's idealism on the issue of climate change now appears ...<div id="medworm"><p><b><i>MedWorm Message:</i></b> Get the very latest Swine Flu news via the MedWorm <b><a href="http://www.medworm.com/rss/search.php?qu=%2Bswine+%2B%28influenza+flu%29&t=Swine+Flu&f=infectiousdiseases&r=Any&o=d" target ="_self">Swine Flu RSS news feed</a></b> - updated hourly from thousands of authoritative health and news sources.</p></div>

It has only in recent years in the United Kingdom has there been a move in levelling of the 'playing fields' that has seen allied health professionals getting a fairer access to CPD funding compared with the larger groupings of medicine and nursing. Unfortunately it will come as no surprise if all groups experience a fall in available funding to support learning activities as organisations tighten their belts. In 2012 the world's largest radiological conference, the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of America (RSNA) meeting at Chicago in November reported a drop in attendance of 9%...
