“I won’t say it’s like going to hear Einstein,” says Stone, an MATC instructor of natural science, “but you know, it’s not far behind. When you have such a prominent person, such a renowned and respected and celebrated scientist coming here to Milwaukee, see him. I mean, it’s the chance of a lifetime.”

CNN believes that the Arctic is melting at -35C, and that commercial shipping lanes are going to be opening up.

There is as much ice now as there was in 1996.

Arctic winters are supposed to be the fastest warming place on earth. Temperatures in the Arctic have been running well below normal for weeks.
“I don’t believe people should be able to own guns,” Obama told Lott one day at the University of Chicago Law School.
Lott explains that he first met Obama shortly after completing his research on concealed handgun laws and crime.
- In 1996, Obama supported a ban on handguns
- In 1998, he supported a ban on the sale of all semi-automatic guns
- In 2004, he advocated banning gun sales within five miles of a school or park, which would have shut down nearly all gun stores
Mr. Lott concludes the chapter, titled, “Bewitched, Bothered, and Bewildered,” writing, “Barack Obama is the most anti-gun president ever. That claim is based not on my own interactions with him back in the 1990’s but on his own public record over many years.”
He ends with a warning:
“The greatest threat is in his [Obama’s] power to reshape the federal courts…Each appointment to the Supreme Court could determine whether the people are allowed to keep their guns.”

All of the top science blogs are skeptic blogs. This makes me wonder if Al Gore regrets having invented the Internet.
Peter Gleick points out that CO2 has continued to rise, yet temperatures haven’t – thus crushing his scam.
He has of course blocked me from responding on twitter.
Global sea ice area has been above normal for 16 days in a row. The odds of this happening randomly are 65536:1

During the 1970s, deep jet stream dips were blamed on global cooling
Scientists are much smarter now, and blame jet stream dips on global warming.
Cornell and Rutgers researchers report in the March issue of Oceanography that the severe loss of summertime Arctic sea ice — attributed to greenhouse warming — appears to enhance Northern Hemisphere jet stream meandering, intensify Arctic air mass invasions toward middle latitudes, and increase the frequency of atmospheric blocking events like the one that steered Hurricane Sandy west into the densely populated New York City area.
More storms like Sandy? Arctic ice loss amplified Superstorm Sandy violence
It makes perfect sense that the record snow and cold during Sandy was due to an overheated atmosphere.
