Solar Cycle Prediction

(Updated 2013/02/01)

The current predicted and observed size makes this the smallest sunspot cycle since Cycle 14 which had a maximum of 64.2 in February of 1906

These numbers are critical for forecasting climate, and NASA has absolutely no ability to forecast them.

Schools are doing everything they can to raise thousands of Adam Lanza’s.

LOVELAND, Colo. — A 2nd grader has been suspended from school in Loveland for a make believe game he was playing.
The 7-year-old says he was trying to save the world. But school administrators say he broke a key rule during his pretend play.
“I was trying to save people and I just can’t believe I got dispended,” says Alex Evans, who doesn’t understand his suspension any better than he can pronounce it.

“It’s called ‘rescue the world,’” he says.

He was playing a game during recess at Loveland’s Mary Blair Elementary School and threw an imaginary grenade into a box with pretend evil forces inside.

“I pretended the box, there’s something shaking in it, and I go ‘pshhh.’”

The boy didn’t throw anything real or make any threats against anyone. He explains he was pretending to be the hero. “So nothing can get out and destroy the world.”

But his imaginary play broke the school’s real rules. The school lists “absolutes” designed to keep a safe environment. The list includes absolutely no fighting, real or imaginary; no weapons, real or imaginary.

Anyone who has watched the BBC’s Planet Earth knows that fighting is an absolutely essential part of male psyche and the evolutionary process. That kid isn’t always going to be seven years old.

“Jonas Brothers are here, they’re out there somewhere. Sasha and Malia are huge fans, but boys, don’t get any ideas. Two words for you: predator drones. You will never see it coming. You think I’m joking?”

44 – Obama drone joke: Was it offensive?

Obama is creating a system of government in the US where the only checks and balances are his personal whims. Our leaders in Congress (Boehner) are personally too weak to stop him from doing this. The press corpse is too stupid and brainwashed to stop him from doing this.

Welcome to dictatorship in America. Fortunately, people in inner cities have Obamaphones to make up for the destruction of the US.

No, I don’t think Obama is joking. I think he is laying down the gauntlet and laughing at the naïveté of the American people.

an “informed, high-level” official of the U.S. government may determine that the targeted American  has been “recently” involved in “activities” posing a threat of a violent attack and “there is  no evidence suggesting that he has renounced or abandoned such activities.” The memo does not define “recently” or “activities.”

For example, a person carrying a pair of scissors or a baseball bat poses a threat of violent attack. As David Appell would point out, a climate skeptic threatens future generations.

This woman was killed by an FBI sniper for carrying a potentially dangerous projectile – a baby.

Obama has recently used taxpayer money to purchase 7,000 AR-15s and a few hundred million rounds of ammunition – for use in the US by his personal army.

Alarmists have this idea that Arctic sea ice used to be very old, but it all melted after the civilian Hummer was invented.

The Arctic Basin is an open basin, and all of the ice eventually floats out into the North Atlantic and melts – mostly during the winter when the winds are stronger. During times when the ice is thicker (say 1980) it moves more slowly and the average age is older.

During the winters from 1988-1996 the winds were very strong, and lots of ice floated out into the North Atlantic and melted. Now there is a lot less thick ice than there was in 1979.

Anyone who claims to know what the ice is going to do in the future probably needs to have their Ouija board checked. Cough cough …… Serreze … cough cough

1. Create an imaginary problem
2. Blame your imaginary problem on people who have different views from yourself
3. Find some way to hurt people who have different views from yourself (even if it hurts yourself too) and declare it to be a solution to your imaginary problem
4. Call anyone who disagrees with this process a threat to the survival of the planet

I remember this 1972 event, like it was yesterday.

Since this accident occurred, more than 1.5 million Americans have died in vehicle  accidents – and many tens of millions have been seriously injured. If we can save one child’s life by banning buses, cattle, bridges, cars and trucks, Obama should do it.

Now that Obama and Gleick have released pictures of how they hold shotguns, we also need to see how a man holds a shotgun.
