How to Provide an Image: Instructions from Luke
Hi Jen,
Have you seen those little picture things in your blog (and at other sites)? Well… Inspired by none other than G Bird I have hacked through your page source and found the relevant link.
Neat little freeware service… Creates a gravatar for you to make your blog persona come alive. And you can have a library and change them too. If you register and do a gravatar “check” at the gravatar site – you will get something like this. Change the size to 48 (last two digits). Wack this in the URL spot for comments in your blog and your blog picture persona will appear !
Of course you need to do your own ….above just an example.
Send the inmates a message.
Only catch is the service takes about 10 minutes to register after you set it up.
I have two at the moment – James Hansen and the Terminator!

Emissions Trading Now Law in New Zealand
The New Zealand Government’s climate change legislation has been passed into law.
“The Climate Change (Emissions Trading and Renewable Preference) Bill has implications for every household and the potential to change the make-up of the labour force as environmental factors gain increasing importance in business. It will eventually bring all sectors of the economy under a regime which sets limits on the amount of greenhouse gas they can emit. Those that breach their limit will have to buy credits from those that are below their cap. Electricity comes under it in 2010, transport in 2011 and agriculture in 2013.
“Climate Change Minister David Parker launched the third reading debate, saying he was proud New Zealand had risen to meet the greatest challenge facing the world.”
