  6. It could mean that Antarctic ice reached a new maximum, which it did,and the well known phenomenon of the ice caps alternating due to the wobble of the earth continues

  12. Yale’s Climate & Energy Institute is finally facing an inconvenient truth: the program will close at the end of June.
    The shuttering follows three consecutive years of budget cuts for the program, which was established eight years ago to conduct climate change research.

  13. France may need to be rescued once again. Britain is also sleep walking into turbulent times. It’s painful to watch as the Western nations sit around picking their noses while Iran is getting ever closer to nuclear power.

  15. I think it must have been the reference to God. The CBC undoubtedly found that offensive.

  18. Goodbye Columbus.

    “On a remote point in Newfoundland, satellite technology detects evidence of a second Norse settlement in Americas”
    “A thousand years after the Vikings braved the icy seas from Greenland to the New World in search of timber and plunder, satellite technology has found intriguing evidence of a long-elusive prize in archaeology — a second Norse settlement in North America, farther south than ever known.
    The new Canadian site, with telltale signs of iron-working, was discovered last summer after infrared images from 400 miles in space showed possible man-made shapes under discolored vegetation.
    The site is on the southwest coast of Newfoundland, about 300 miles south of L’Anse aux Meadows, the first and only confirmed Viking settlement in North America, discovered in 1960.
    Since then, archaeologists, following up clues in the histories known as the sagas, have been hunting for the holy grail of other Viking, or Norse, landmarks in the Americas that would have existed 500 years before Columbus, to no avail.”

  19. So, big Al and the fruit fly tard, tell us again about the 97% consensus.
    “The reality is that the CO2 emissions dogma is now so shaky – especially given the 21st century’s pause or halt to warming – that peer-reviewed papers sceptical of the orthodoxy are flooding into scientific journals. Kenneth Richard has been tabulating these papers and lists more than 660 published in just the past 27 months – including 133 since the start of 2016 and 282 last year. The mainstream media ignores them, ditto the IPCC whose remit is to look exclusively for evidence of human-induced, rather than natural, climate change.[1]”

  21. This is april and with it comes Earthday that time of the year when the green nuts are falling faster from the tree of eco-wackoism then raindrows from a thunderstorm and the sreets will be crawling in the 22’ed with all sorts of nutcases from either hollywood or from the various eco-freak groups just look for the walking talking trees and various strange critters just keep your distence from them

  22. Another photo circulating – retweeted this time by Bongo himself showing him in the aptly named ‘Peacock’ yoga pose. Bongo apparently pulled this stunt off in an opposition room on parliament hill a few years back.
    Too bad Bongo didn’t exercise and develop his brain with the same zeal he devoted to his looks.

  23. Trump has really stepped in it this last week or so, taking on water, very high disapproval among women. Looks like it could be Cruz. Wisconsin next week could be pivotal. The very popular Governor there, Scott Walker, has now endorsed Ted Cruz.

  24. Shhhh… don’t mention Gosnell

    In an interview with actress Laverne Cox for Interview Magazine, Planned Parenthood President and CEO Cecile Richards called for increased efforts to “humanize” abortion as she said ABC’s “Scandal” did.
    In an episode of “Scandal” titled, “Baby, It’s Cold Outside,” which aired last fall, the show’s main character Olivia Pope had an abortion as the Christmas hymn “Silent Night” played in the background.

    Doctors Say Bill Gates Polio Vaccine Has Created Deadly ‘Super Polio’
    A mutated strain of Polio has made its way to Europe – as medical authorities admit that the Polio vaccine program led by Bill Gates had ended up creating a more deadly strain of the disease.
    In 2011 Doctors in India reported that young children were being crippled in huge numbers after receiving the oral polio vaccine – with 47,000 children crippled and permanently disabled as a direct result of the vaccine.

    “An electrical plant on the Saskatchewan prairie was the great hope for industries that burn coal.
    In the first large-scale project of its kind, the plant was equipped with a technology that promised to pluck carbon from the utility’s exhaust and bury it underground, transforming coal into a cleaner power source. In the months after opening, the utility and the provincial government declared the project an unqualified success.
    But the $1.1 billion project is now looking like a green dream.”

    “Norway drops carbon capture plan it had likened to ‘moon landing’”
    “OSLO — Norway’s outgoing centre-left government dropped plans on Friday for a costly large-scale project to capture carbon dioxide that it once compared in ambition to sending people to the Moon.
    The International Energy Agency says deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology is critical to reducing carbon emissions, but so far there is no full-scale commercial plant operating anywhere in the world.
    “The development of full-scale carbon dioxide capture at Mongstad is discontinued,” Norway’s oil and energy ministry said,…”

  29. Apparently the watermelons have 97% consensus that every study about CAGW consensus will give a 97% consensus. This makes at least four studies, all with the same magical 97% “consensus.” All statistically invalid BS but on message. Remember, 97%. More good stuff from the excellent article you cited:
    “The original “97% consensus” about human-caused global warming dates to a 2004 study by science historian Naomi Oreskes, who has been babbling for the past quarter-century that warming sceptics are the same as tobacco lobbyists. She surveyed the literature from 1993-2003 and found three-quarters of 928 papers agreed with the consensus, and a quarter made no comment on it. (The fallacy is that in the highly-competitive scramble by academics for government research funding, any request suggesting the author is not on board with the ‘consensus’ was certain to be refused funding; thus their output never saw the light of day. This censorship-by-shunning is now crumbling).”
    Then there was the Doran/Zimmerman study in 2008. This study was supposed to represent 3146 earth-scientist respondents. In fact, laughably, they culled their list down to a mere 79 suitable respondents, of whom 76 (or 97%) backed the consensus.”
    In 2013, University of Queensland Ph.D. student John Cook published yet another 97% study, supposedly involving the rating of 12,464 abstracts. The Cook exercise passed peer review and was accepted by Environmental Research Letters, run by the UK Institute of Physics (I hadn’t known that physics involved measurements of ‘consensus’).[7] It became the most-cited bit of research that year, with 161,000 downloads (currently 470,000). Sadly, the peer reviewers failed to check the study’s own data. This data showed that the number of studies actually backing the orthodox climate view – that most of the past 50 years’ warming is human-caused – was not 97% but 0.3%.”
    The 97% claim involved nothing more than agreement that there is some global warming and humans play some part in it. Given that the overwhelming majority of sceptics also believe this, the only surprise is that the figure isn’t 99.9%.”
    Rational people have a 100% consensus climate has changed, or it should be 100%. It ends right there.

  30. Let me fix that headline for you:
    “Obama urges global action to combat nuclear terrorism threat (except the US).”
    “Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is also attending the summit. Canada will put more money into programs to help secure nuclear stockpiles and to dispose of highly radioactive material.” Taxaction is the favoured strategy. Anyway it’s not as important when the JV team nukes you.
    Once he figures out what the heck that means, he’ll get back to us. I understand he’s considering putting a price on radioactivity, a carbon-14 tax.
    Meanwhile Donald Trump gets pilloried for not destroying deterrence by refusing to take nukes “off the table.”

  31. I saw a TV documentary about an archaeological dig on southern Baffin Island. They found the remains of Norse buildings and evidence of European trade with the Inuit. This was a well documented find.
