Global Warming Is A Hoax, Part 3

Michale E. Mann, Asst Professor, U-Mass lays out the conspiracy;
"I am grateful to Peck for realizing that the time is ripe for a workshop in which we all strategize as a group towards these ends. I believe we all go into this in "good faith", and I'm very excited about what the workshop might produce, in particular, in terms of effective long-term strategies [funding]." http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=66&filename=906042912.txt

Here, Keith Briffa is trying to stay employed: http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=68&filename=906137836.txt He seems a in a bit of a panic, funny..

This is good, Naki (Nebojsa Nakicenovic) figures out he can reset all of the CO2 modeler's data to a single starting point for 2009. Screw all that data you used before!
http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=71&filename=907293443.txt

Michael Prather (http://www.ess.uci.edu/~prather/) lays it all out right here: "So we will do as already stated 'make emissions match [temperature] observations'." http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=73&filename=907525054.txt Mike goes on to say "The AOGCMs [Atmosphere-Ocean General Circulation Model] should NOT use their own sulfur cycle for the first of the climate scenarios. There is little doubt that all will produce vastly different negative RFs and hence different regional climate response. As I remember listening to the arguments for preparing these climate scenarios, the PRIMARY goal
is to assess how well/consistently we can predict future climate and especially regional changes given a set of forcings. Likewise, we do not want these scenarios generated from different time lines for CO2"


Ahh, Keith doesn't let me down, fixing the data to fit what he wants...
http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=75&filename=907695513.txt Overpeck [Peck] adds here: "it is interesting that the 20th century is as warm or warmer than everything in the last 1000 years EXCEPT before ca. 1110 AD." Then he questions the data, sounding like it should be discounted.

Global Warming Is A Hoax, Part 2

Continuing reading these emails;

Keith Briffa bribes Professor Krenke..."If you can get the draft to me soon - with details of all participants and money I will then look at it and revise and submit [data] as you wish"
http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=50&filename=888609364.txt Oh, IPCC is the Intergovernmental Panel On Climate Change.

The next meeting gets so big, that they move it to the World Bank building in DC (I am sure there are no real ties between the two, anyone can have a meeting at the World Bank building in DC in 1998) http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=56&filename=893188400.txt

Who the hell is Ged Davis?? http://www.iiasa.ac.at/iiasa35/docs/others/Ged%20Davis_bio.pdf
Ged admits: "our ability to model large-systems, at the global level, is still in its infancy. Additionally, most databases do not go back much further than 50 years and many less than that" http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=54&filename=889554019.txt
Why is Ged (Shell Oil) running the show at the meeting, providing clear "storylines and scenarios"; http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=57&filename=894639050.txt Awfully fishy, I think it's a case of 'keep your enemies closer'?

Geoff Jenkins (UK) pushes Mike Hulme (UK) for a worst case scenario: http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=65&filename=905951700.txt

Icebergs Attack New Zeland!

http://www.cnn.com/2009/TECH/science/11/25/iceberg.newzealand/index.html

The second time in 78 years that this has happened, icebergs!! Last time was in 2006, three years ago (ahem?). The last time before that was 79 years ago. Duh, talk about fact manipulation?? 78 years ago was just after WWI and right before the Great Depression. I wonder why there was lull in sightings?

I used to have respect for CNN, but they don't even allow comments on this story. Not good guys, my stupid little Blog allows that...

Global Warming Is A Hoax, Part 1

These are all of the emails to prove it;
http://www.eastangliaemails.com/index.php
Leaked by some thief, and most all of the news sites are afraid to link to them, not me.

Probably one of the most destructive messages (so far) is from Professor Joseph Alcamo, Germany: http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=35&filename=876437553.txt Scheming to make sure their voice is heard and they have endorsements from "Scientists", whatever their credentials are. Too funny, and just the start!

This is good, Dr Phil Jones from the UK has an issue with a "climate change" report:
http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=36&filename=876860264.txt Off "by a factor of 6" jumps out at me, you?

Slap my knees and call me Loretta, the first all out lie: "Without these implications we will have difficulty convincing Nature [magazine] that this work is mega iportant". From Tom (the cheater) Wigley, from UCAR in Colorado: http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=37&filename=878654527.txt UCAR gets most of it's funding from (my favorite) the National Science Foundation, and others: http://www.ucar.edu/governance/meetings/apr06/nonnsf_funding.pdfThis is Tom Wigley, who I thought was a character on Sesame Street.

Keith Briffa (UK) hangs himself with: "This is the sort of meeting I must attend and put on a good show if we hope to get further funding in 1999 onwards" http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=41&filename=881356379.txt
This isn't "science", it's a conspiracy...

Here, Nebojsa Nakicenovic (Naki) from Berkey CA/via Austria, wants a meeting to get their "storylines" in order; http://www.eastangliaemails.com/emails.php?eid=42&filename=884731847.txt More conspiracy, for fraud this time...

I guess my point here is; We are paying these asses to spout untruths. And I am only on page 2 of 43!!!

NewsCorp Leans Towards BING?



It's funny how Rupert is so very scared of Google, he is too old to understand that they increase traffic at his web sites. Poor old guy. I guess the is still thinking about it.

What I haven't heard anyone talk about, is how this (if it happens) will pit the conservative online media (BING) against the liberal (Google). I don't thing Microsoft wants to be branded as the "right wing search engine"? At least I don't think so. Nor do I think Google would want to be left wing. I am watching this one like a hawk.

I expect MS will say no, and Rupert will have to go think some more, which will just make him angrier.

The Redskins Continue To Fall

It was quite a game today. Two field goals made and two missed, no touchdowns. Lots of injuries. A team full of talent and over optimistic attitude, are totally out of shape. If they had been properly conditioned in the pre-season, they wouldn't be in the position they are now, which is 3 and 7. But no, the coaches took the word of the players, that they didn't need all that much work. Hey, Haynesworth can carry the whole team, right? We have seen how that has worked out.

Have a nice season guys, Detroit is one game away from tying your record...

Corinne Le Quere

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/science/nature/8364926.stm

She (Corinne Le Quack) has been busting her ass since 2002 to prove C02 emissions are going to kill us! Good thing she is on the case, studying data for 7 whole years. I feel safer.

Or do we need to study things more than 7 years (like centuries or more) to figure out the weather and what is the real impact from "man"? Why does no one talk about the glaciers that are growing? Regional cooling trends? Drought from cooling? No funding in that...

I would laugh, but people are throwing money at her, just to make us cry.

Catholics To Leave DC

Well, stop helping the poor anyway;

http://www.getreligion.org/?p=21376

It kind of flies in the face of the Bible doesn't it? What happened to accepting others that are different from us?

Oh, wait..Deuteronomy 7:5. When dealing with non-Christians, you "destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire".

Never mind, they can leave. All over a gay rights law, how dumb! But it is written, so they must act.

Worst Owner Ever!

A couple Redskins "fans" managed to get this banner into the Chinese like controlled Fed-Ex Field today. They ban all unfavorable media in this place (t-shirts, signs, paper bags on the head). It's just Little Hitler (Dan Snyder) flexing the only control he has outside of destroying the Washington Redskins, from the inside out.

I can imagine they were shut down really fast, because this went up right in front of Snyder's box at the stadium. It should be noted that the Redskins won today, but only because the Bronco's starting QB was injured before halftime.

Direct Mounted Shelves..


Yep, no hangers or supports, they mount directly into the wall..

This is not the easiest thing in the world to do. You have to:

Find the studs (use a magnet).

Drill holes into the studs, perfectly straight and avoid the nails (use a magnet).

Drill perfect holes into the Shelves, good luck!

Cut threaded rod that barely fits into the holes and then drive them into the wall with a hammer;

Now, bang the shelves into place, but tweak the threaded rods in the wall with a hammer first, and make sure they are level. The blue tape was there to even up one edge of all of the shelves. It all looks cool, but it's a lot of work.

Oh, did I mention to be sure to drill the holes 3.5" each way, and cut the rod into 6.5" lengths..a very important lesson learned!

I think she is pretty funny too, click the link below and watch clips 1, 4, 5 and 6 from when she hosted SNL. The show has gotten better and I think she did a better job in some of the skits than several "regulars" on the show. Watch the Swine Fever thing too.

The House Passes Healthcare Reform

It was not a surprise, to me anyway. It was really scary to watch the amendment to HR 3962 (Abortion abolition), pass as well.

Minority leader, John Boner was really worried about the abortion thing passing. Why? Well, some 64 Democrats voted for it, and they will now get to go into the 2010 elections as having done so, and tout that fact. They are probably all in fairly "conservative" parts of the country, and will have an ace up their sleeves. It's a trick the Democrats learned from the Republicans.

The "sad news" for Republicans, is the text of the Abortion Ammendment to HR 3962 will not be in the bill that goes to the President. This is what John Boner realized, a little too late. he thought he was being soooo sly with the amendment, but it has backfired in his face.

Here's the vote: http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2009/roll884.xml#Y

Party Of "NO"

http://inhofe.senate.gov Jimmy Inhofe is the poster child (stress the child part) by not even showing up for a Climate Bill markup. Um, he has nothing to add, so he and his buddies just skipped it. it's a ploy, that forces the chairman (Barbara Boxer, a woman) to invoke a rarely used majority rule to move forward. Jimmy's BIO quotes him as "also been a champion for restoring common sense and sound science to important environmental and regulatory issues like clean air mandates, wetlands, and endangered species." Yet he will not even sit at the table over a Climate bill???

It's about the most childish thing I have ever heard of. It these Pubs can't even sit in the room and offer ideas (stamp your little feet kids), they will be swept aside. Rightly so. The Senate Environment and Public Works Committee will proceed.

Am I the only person in the country who sees the Republican Party as being a total sell out to big business? The behaviour I mention above and the fact that the Pub healthcare reform bill, leaked today, was written completely by American Health Insurance? It is turning into a circus, call the Blue Man Group!

Opel Stays With GM?

The United States Of Europe?

Yep, it's true. They have finally (blame Czech Land for the delay) ratified the Lisbon treaty. Starting (maybe) next month, they will have a single president for all of the EU (now they all take turns) and a "European Council", which will act much like our Congress, here in the US.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/europe/8340664.stm

It's interesting to watch the same thing that went on in the US 232 years ago, now happening in Europe. The stronger countries (states) will prop up the weaker ones.

I will be very interesting to see how they merge the different markets, if they try to do that.

Yep, between May and September this year, the ice melted by 15 meters (about 50 feet). It must be the end of the world.

It was FUCKING SUMMER!!!! Will you come back next May and take the same measurements and get on the BBC to say the glacier grew?? No, you god damn will not. This is such fictional lunacy that I can't believe my ears from day to day. They have no reference data (or didn't offer it if they do) to say how much melt happened a decade ago, or longer.

What a joke...
