Answer: The mild conditions this winter are driven by a "positive phase" of the Arctic Oscillation, which strengthens the jet stream, a ribbon of fast-moving air that flows west to east over the Northern Hemisphere. Changes in the jet stream's behavior can have a profound impact on weather systems around the world.

Since before recorded history, environmental changes have affected things people value. In consequence, people have migrated or changed their ways of living as polar ice advanced and retreated, endured crop failures or altered their crops when temperature and rainfall patterns changed, and made numerous other adjustments in individual and collective behavior. Until very recently, people have responded to global phenomena as if they were local, have not organized their responses as government policies, and have not been able to respond by deliberately altering the course of the global changes themselves.

Answer:
"Bart Gets an 'F'" is the first episode of the second season of the American animated television series The Simpsons. It aired originally on the Fox network in the United States on October 11, 1990. In this episode, Bart Simpson fails four consecutive history exams, and the school psychiatrist recommends he repeat the fourth grade. Bart vows to do better and persuades the class genius, Martin Prince, to tutor him. After that backfires, Bart prays to God for help. At Springfield Elementary School, Bart presents a book report on Treasure Island. But during his presentation, it becomes obvious that he didn't read the book. Mrs. Krabappel scolds him for his falling test scores and warns him about an upcoming exam on Colonial America. At school the next day, Bart feigns illness to avoid taking another test. After grilling Milhouse for the test answers, an overconfident Bart scores even worse than he did when Mrs. Krabappel gives Bart a different set of test questions.
