Choosing Gambling Is Easy

placed on administrative leave two weeks ago by the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement and was informed that his integrity was in question.My favourite part is this description of Dr. Monnett's conversation with the investigators about his calculations:
One of the more lively moments in this transcript is the back-and-forth between the investigators and an increasingly exasperated Dr. Monnett over how to structure the mathematical calculations representing polar-bear mortality. He indicated, with consistent acidic references to “fifth grade” equations on percentages, that the investigators or their informants needed remedial work on their mathematics.Don't miss the last paragraph of the blog where Ms. Barringer reports on two other environmental scientists whose work and integrity is being questioned.
While the criminals are becoming wealthier, the poor global economy has weakened conservation groups' ability to counter the crimes.In these poor economic times we can't forget how badly environmental advocacy groups need our support.
