An official with knowledge of Connection school shooting tells the Associated Press that 27 people are dead, including 18 children.

Many of the shootings took place in a kindergarten classroom, sources told the Hartford Courant. The gunman is reported dead.

One official, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the investigation is still under way, says the man apparently had two guns.

Climate models are accurate to 0.1 degrees 100 years in the future, but you are not allowed to quote forecasts more than two years old – because the science has improved.

Publishing fake, stolen and forged documents about Heartland is a good thing.

Publishing publicly funded drafts of IPCC reports is pure evil.

There was a shooting at an elementary school in Sandy Hook, Connecticut this morning.

This is particularly disturbing to me because I was working in the tiny community of Sandy Hook during February/March last year, and one my co-worker’s son went to that school at the time.  They since moved to Florida to get away from the snow.

Warm air is streaming down from the rapidly melting Arctic, and is bringing freezing conditions to southern Arizona.

NOAA is determined to make 2012 the hottest year ever, no matter how much cheating is required.

Thermometers show that 2012 is the third warmest year in US history, after 1934 and 1921. But that story just isn’t going to scare anyone into forking over their hard earned money, so NOAA has massively cooled the past and warmed the present.

USHCN literature claims that adjustments go flat after 1990, but their actual adjustments increase exponentially. They are adding on an additional 0.6 degrees since 1990, which has no justification, and is plain and simple fraud. The total adjustment since the early 20th century is almost two degrees.

• 1998. We are saving the planet from global warming
• 2005. Global warming isn’t happening – but it will later. We must fudge the truth to keep the momentum going
• 2012. It just isn’t happening, but we have lost our integrity from incessantly lying over the last decade, and now it is all about protecting ourselves. Screw the rest of the world.

Richard Hendrickson, a Bridgehampton resident who turned 100 in September, warned the Southampton Town board Tuesday that global warming was real, and that “the Atlantic in time will creep up and take a majority of what we enjoy.”

Antarctic sea ice has been above normal for almost 13 straight months, and almost all of the coastal water around Antarctica has below normal temperatures. Where does McKibben come up with this crap?

Scientists used to say that the Antarctic Peninsula was the fastest warming place on Earth, until it started cooling. And even then they still kept saying it.
