  Ice age - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An ice age is a period of long-term downturn in the temperature of Earth's climate, resulting in an expansion of the continental ice sheets, polar ice sheets and mountain glaciers ("glaciation").
Glaciologically, ice age is often used to mean a period of ice sheets in the northern and southern hemispheres; by this definition we are still in an ice age (because the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets still exist).
The present ice ages are the most studied and best understood, particularly the last 400,000 years, since this is the period covered by ice cores that record atmospheric composition and proxies for temperature and ice volume.

 Ice cream van - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Ice cream vans are often brightly decorated and carry images of ice cream, or some other adornment, such as cartoon characters.

A minimum of three to four inches of solid ice is the general rule for safety.

 Ice Therapy
Ice is one of the simplest, safest, and most effective self care techniques for injury, pain, or discomfort in muscles and joints.
Ice therapy can help the area heal faster, and there will be a decrease in pain and swelling and an increase in lymphatic drainage.
The results were that ice and cooling down the body temperature may evoke a vascular response to cold stimulus that may be mediated in part by the spinal cord and by supra-spinal centers causing a change in blood pressure.

 Swiss ice cream makers: running to stand still?
Swiss ice cream manufacturers are hoping that the heatwave-induced growth of 2003 will not melt away in 2004, and are counting on continued interest in the impulse sector in particular to revitalise their fortunes.
Ice cream has always been a product whose fortunes are tied to the weather, with a good summer generally regarded as vital for the well being of the industry.
Switzerland's ice cream producers are clearly hopeful that such novelties will drive further growth this year, but history would seem to be against them, with 20 years of near stagnation punctuated by the odd period of rapid, weather-related growth.

 Running Out of Ice? - Brief Article Natural History - Find Articles
After the breakup of sea ice each spring, the bears can no longer hunt and may come ashore to rest and fast for weeks or months, living off their stored fat.
One study found that since 1978, the ice cover in the circumpolar Arctic has fallen by about 3 percent per decade; another estimate puts it at 14 percent per decade.
Cores from the Greenland ice sheet do show significant shifts of climate in the past (the polar bear's distribution is now Arctic and circumpolar, but an 11,000-year-old skull was found near London's Kew Gardens).
