In the past decade , the computer models of Earth's climate have played an important role in forging the scientific and political consensus that global warming os a great threat . What climate modellers need to do next is to convert their creations to the implement of actual policy. But these models all differ in many ways .

Some climate modelers , gathered for a summit last week . Called for a project to better understand and model the climate system . This project requires dedicated facilities that would be able to provide world-class computational resourses. The world's public purses nearly always pay for the fastest computers .

Richard Steele was an english essayist , dramatist , politician. In 1684, he was sent to study in england at charterhouse where he met Josegh Addison, and thus began one of the most famous and fruitful literary friendships . For many people of his time , the gracious tone of his works , most of which advocated respectful behaviour toward the oppressed women . Served as evidence of a significant cultural change .
In 1701, steele wrote his first comedy , the funeral , which received more than expected praise . This play made his reputation and helped to bring him to the notice of king william. He became increasingly famous . Late in 1703 he followed this with his only stage failure , the lying lover , which ran for merely six nights and ended up with a miserable result . In 1705, he married a widow , margaret stretch , who owned considerable property , but late in 1706 , margaret died ,and left her husband with a large sum of income .
Steele's sencond marriage , contracted within a year of margaret's death , was to mary scurlock .
Having borne him four children ,she died from abortion in 1718 , which brought Steele into deep depression .
In 1709 , he secured his place in literary history by launching The Tatler , which was enormously successful due to the recipe of political irony. Both as man and writer Steele was one of the most attractive figures of his time . 2.
