Y2Kyoto: Released From The Icy Grip of Irony

Rescue of trapped climate-change researchers finally succeeds. But no word as to why there were there;

… the word “climate” appears once in [the CNN] web report, although not as an explanation. It doesn’t appear at all in the CBS report. The Associated Press report similarly avoids this key data point. Scott Johnson called this expedition the “ship of fools,” and perhaps that can be applied to these reports on the denouement, too.

Update: Aurora Australis will now start heading towards open water. The ship is currently travelling at a quarter knot in heavy ice towards open water. Webcam here.

Y2Kyoto: Seized In Irony’s Warm Embrace

It felt absurdly heavy, and the wheels also seemed to be jammed.

Wynneing!

Too little, too late.
That’s how Alex Vasni and his wife, Anar, felt, as they stood on their Kenworthy Ave. porch Monday morning and watched Premier Kathleen Wynne hand out food hampers to select neighbours on the street while the media followed her.[…]
“Someone came around and pre-interviewed us for this (photo opportunity),” said Anar, 55. “My husband was venting away and so now, they just bypassed us. Even if they brought the food basket to us, we would’ve told them to give it to the people that really need it — the ones without power, still.”
