Climate-Science Officials Seek Better Reports (13)
Some top officials of a Nobel Prize-winning climate-science organization are acknowledging the panel made some mistakes amid a string of recent revelations questioning the accuracy of some of the information in its influential reports.

He contended that a few nuclear reactors like the new one proposed at Calvert Cliffs could generate as much power on just a few acres of land as the 2,900 turbines spread across 800 square miles of water that the Delaware researchers said could potentially be used. Firestone acknowledged that large-scale offshore wind might have ecological impacts and require additional power lines and even power plants to accommodate it. "Yeah, you're going...

GRAND RAPIDS (WZZM)- With snow often comes school closings. But Wednesday, February 10, 2010 is count day. It is one of two days each year when districts use attendance numbers to determine a portion of state funding.  However school leaders say they can't let count day influence weather decisions.
