Zimmerman Now Charged With Pay Pal

Never mind that the prosecutor intentionally withheld critical evidence, and trumped up unsustainable murder charges against Zimmerman. Zimmerman is going back to jail for having a Pay Pal account.

A Florida judge on Friday revoked the bail for George Zimmerman in the Trayvon Martin case, saying he had misled the court about his finances, and ordered him to present himself to the court within 48 hours.

Prosecutors alleged in a court filing that Zimmerman, 28, hid from the court the fact that he had raised $135,000 on a website he set up before he was granted $150,000 bail on April 20. Zimmerman is facing second-degree murder charges in the shooting death of Martin, 17, in February.

Lukewarmers : All Versions Are Good

Our lukewarmist friends insist that Hansen’s data is good, and that I just don’t understand it. This is remarkable statement, given that Hansen radically changes the data all the time.

Apparently both versions are completely accurate. Iceland is a schizo kind of place – unlike Hansen who is right on top of the facts.

Worse Than We Thought

I extracted the GISS Northern Hemisphere graph which wooltwat wanted to see. The graph above overlays GISS NH on the National Academy of Sciences 1975 graph, normalized to zero. (Note that there is some non-linearity in the Y-axes of both graphs. I plotted both of them exactly as they were drawn, with identical scales.)

It is even worse than the original version. Be careful what you ask for.

New Scientist : Herbivores Can’t Survive A Warm Climate

Climate change will create a toxic brew for herbivores

A WARMER world might be a poisoned one. A compilation of studies suggests that as temperatures rise, herbivorous mammals will suffer greater effects from the toxins they eat, with animals living in dry regions at particular risk.

Mammals can maintain a constant body temperature and so are thought to be less vulnerable to temperature changes than cold-blooded animals like reptiles. But Denise Dearing at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City has found evidence that mammals feel the heat in subtle ways.

This explains why herbivores in warm climates are so small and sickly.

Perhaps they are better off grazing on the ice?
