Replacing Obama: NEW Fox News ROCK STAR!

That’s right – Fox News’s Rupert Murdoch has found a NEW ROCK STAR to replace Obama; just in the nick of time!

Witchcraft, or Science?

Many scientists are in fact witches; we have learned in the past 10 years or so.

But this is nothing new!

As Dr. Baliunas (not a witch) points out, history proves that climate has often been far less hospitable than it is today. All witches may not agree with this statement; nonetheless, there it is – absolute and incontrovertible fact. Moreover, all truly scientific evidence demonstrates that these less habitable conditions have occurred repeatedly from far before recent pre-history.

Will these inhospitable intervals of climate on Earth repeat going forward; or will the climate behave in ways never observed before; as conjured by now-wealthy witches, posing as scientists?

Even without a close study of the sun, the answer to this dichotomy can only be that what we have seen many, many times will repeat; and what we have never seen may be only a repeated case of witchcraft!

Yes, witchcraft does repeat too. Obviously, humans do believe in witchcraft, even today it continues to repeat! Witchcraft will repeat again.

Can science overcome witchcraft? Given much time, it always does. But very often this sweet victory comes far too late; as the cost in human lives from the next, inevitable, hostile climate interval will evidence soon again. Is it 20 years, or 200 years? Apparently, based on the history of solar behavior, it will be sooner; as any reader of WUWT knows well.

There is still time to mitigate the results, of this “unfortunate” history, repeated. Our real misfortune is that, due to witchcraft, we blew our precious time and cash pumping CO2 down abandoned mines.

Witchcraft, and history

California Subscribes to National Socialism

I am sure there have many turning points in the subversion of the US Constitution in California. There have been far too many to even make notice. But surely here is a turning point of great, if not final, significance.

California has fired a long-tenured professor for the content of his work; because his work is not acceptable in California’s blossoming socialist agenda. There is a review of the case on April 4, 2011.

Why Are Wind Turbines Not Worth Maintaining?

The $cash has been made. Now, who will repair them?

It’s easy, silly.

Government subsidizes INSTALLING wind turbines.

Government does not subsidize REPAIRING wind turbines.

Ergo, THEY ARE NOT WORTH REPAIRING.

Prepare For Global Cooling

Prepare for global COOLING; and whatever Al Gore says, believe exactly the opposite.

Piers Corbyn’s predictions are quite good. So far, Al Gore has never been right, one time (except when he initiated the internet).

Ice ages follow Gore around like puppy dogs. Gore’s “karma” is world disaster, like AIDS, malaria, or world poverty and starvation.

Al Gore will be reincarnated, 60 years before the next ice age.

Unfortunately, smooth operator(?) Gore has disabled a large share of world scientists. When will our scientists resume being useful, in general?

Well, a few are useful:

Did you throw your winter clothes away yet?

Winter is only a short 9 days old in the UK and elsewhere.

Something seems to be up, but unfortunately warmth is not it. Has anybody checked with Al Gore?

If somebody wants to tax your energy suppliers, to prevent global warming, I think I would be upset.

If somebody doesn’t want cheap heating oil and coal, I think I would be upset.

Mostly I burn firewood. Looks like I am going to have to expand the woodlot. Oh, well. I’ve been planning for it for 3 or 4 years. Burning firewood is GREAT; especially when heating oil is too expensive.

BRITAIN’S winter is the coldest since 1683 and close to being the chilliest in nearly 1,000 years.

WINTER MAY BE COLDEST IN 1000 YEARS

30th December 2010 By Steve Hughes
BRITAIN’S winter is the coldest since 1683 and close to being the chilliest in nearly 1,000 years.

Latest figures reveal that the average temperature since December 1 has been a perishing -1C.

That makes it the second coldest since records began in 1659.

The chilliest on record was 1683/84, when the average was -1.17C and the River Thames froze over for two months.

But with January and February to come, experts believe we could suffer the most freezing cold winter in the last 1,000 years.

Wind Power Quits

So, you better have back up fast-start capacity. Nukes come in handy. And nuke power is a fraction of the cost of wind. Unfortunately, nukes take a long time to build. Earth may be getting cooler fast. During really cold weather, wind turbines may put out only 2.5% to 10% of the rated power.

When cold air is trapped near the ground, wind is often quiet

‘Green’ Scotland relying on French nuclear power

(Seen first at Gateway Pundit. Article dated Wednesday, 29-December; emphasis added)

Over the past ten days, when temperatures have plunged across Scotland, the average power generation from Britain’s wind developments – the majority of which are in Scotland – was 261 megawatts (MW), just 10.75 per cent of the total possible of 2,430MW.

Last Monday and Tuesday afternoon wind production fell to a major low while electricity usage peaked close to its highest level.

Shortly before 5:30pm on both days, wind power production fell to 62MW and 61 MW respectively – just 2.5 per cent of its total capacity.

At the same time on both occasions, the UK’s electricity usage rose to about 60,000MW – one of the highest ever levels of demand. Electricity demand in the UK rarely rises above 60,000MW.

Wind farms are designed to run at an average of 30 per cent of their generation capacity throughout a year.

Obama Consults On Global Warming

This is DIRECT from Obama, certified genius. He comments formally on global warming science.

Obama graduated from Harvard so you should definitely check this out (Harvard has reserved the right to sue Obama for damages):

Result of Increasing Carbon Dioxide in Atmosphere

Scientists, mostly funded and thus directed by various and sundry (and I use this term lightly) governments, determined that 1) global temperatures were rising 2) the rise in temperature was caused by the greenhouse effect aided for the first time by anthropogenic carbon dioxide 3) the Earth is doomed to rapidly increasing temperatures with all possible future rates of anthropogenic carbon dioxide addition taken into account.

The result of increasing carbon dioxide in atmosphere is far beyond the ability of science to observe today. It is nothing. Few omnipotent big-government scientists will admit this. It is possible that even scientists can learn, though unlikely when government funds them.

This cold wave is caused by something else, and may be the harbinger of harsh reality virtually UNIMAGINED* IN SCIENCE, at least government funded science, even though it is merely the repitition of well-known history.

Large to vast numbers of human deaths could occur within the next 30 – 100 years due to intense cold and its effect on growing seasons. Government, and the vast cadre of scientists it has suborned, are helpless.

The result of increasing carbon dioxide in atmosphere is nothing of practical significance today and far into the future.

(*By “unimagined” here, I actually intend “criminally denied,” but it would destroy the flow of the brief post. I permitted myself an obscure joke at the expense of “government science.” Perhaps we will elucidate in a new post).
Story here: Coldest day ever recorded in Ireland

Coldest Day Ever Recorded in Ireland

Jack Cashill

// //

On Tuesday this week, the high temperature in Ballyhaise, County Cavan, clocked in at 16 degrees Fahrenheit. As Head forecaster Gerald Fleming told the Irish Times, “That’s the lowest daily maximum ever recorded in Ireland, which makes it the coldest day ever recorded in Ireland.”

This new low did not shock the Irish. They have been getting used to sub-freezing temperatures. This is the coldest December on record in Ireland and throughout much of Northern Europe. It is likely the snowiest as well. The weather has thoroughly disrupted European travel and is starting to damage the economy.

Not all winters are like this. I saw no snow the year I lived in Ireland in the early 1990s, and in the early 1980s, during the winter I spent in France-Nancy to be precise-the temperature never dropped below freezing, even at night.

For old time’s sake, I have been tracking the weather reports out of Europe. Yet in all that I have read in the mainstream European press, I have seen no attempt to reconcile the present cold with the promised heat, not even to chalk the flagrant disparity up to “climate change.” It is as if the reader is not supposed to notice.

But many do. The blogs and editorial letters boil over with outrage. Writes one not atypical letter writer in the UK, “Snowfall, ice, Arctic-level cold and all the rest have caused major disruption to the UK infrastructure in the last few weeks, not least because our gilded civil servants have been looking in the wrong direction. And they still are. . . . The country is grinding to a halt NOW, and they are still prattling about global warming in the period 2030 to 2100? These people are truly off their trolleys. They are seriously mentally ill.”

The Europeans are learning what we have always known, as Michael Savage might put it, “Liberalism is a mental disorder.”
