UPDATE OF ANNUAL SCALE FACTORS THROUGH 2010

This update extends the annual scale factors to 2010 over Canada and USA.
Global emissions scalars remain constant after 2006.

This update includes the fix for CO over Botswana (see http://wiki.seas.harvard.edu/geos-chem/index.php/Carbon_Gases_and_Organics_Working_Group#GEIA_anthropogenic_scaling_factors).
