"There has been no warming over the past 10 years and a slight cooling for the last 6 or 7 years. In the meantime the CO2 emissions have continued to increase. The hypothesis predicted warming over the last 10 years, while no warming and even cooling has been observed. The AGW hypothesis again is falsified."

Proportional Response.
The Arabs countries are criticising Israel for a disproportional response to the day assault of multiple missiles into it territory. Although the missiles might not be destroying many assets and killing lots of people, it does force frequent daily disruptions to the people living within target area. Not only that, there is the daily terror and fear that builds up over long periods of constant attack.
If you think the Israeli response is disproportional, what do you think is the "proportional response". Should Israel just daily shoot 100s of missiles into random areas of Gaza?

Global Warming Update
link
"The "scientific consensus" that Al Gore and his fellow global warming alarmists rely upon to force radical changes in how Americans live and work is being unraveled by Mother Nature. In addition to the recent freak snowstorms in Malibu, Calif., New Orleans and Las Vegas, Arctic ice is expanding this year -- not shrinking -- and there were 115 record-low temperatures reported in the United States in October, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Despite rising carbon dioxide levels, the Earth has actually been cooling -- not warming -- since 1998, when the warming trend peaked in conjunction with heightened sunspot activity.
It appears that 2008, the National Climatic Data Center now says, will go down as the coldest year in a decade.
"For how many years must the planet cool before we begin to understand that the planet is not warming?" asked David Gee, chairman of the 2008 International Geological Congress' science committee."

link3 is the article by Ball, a good read for those who believe in global warming.
"Big Fix?
A renowned environmental consultant says the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has been cooking the books on global warming. Former University of Winnipeg Climatology Professor Dr. Tim Ball writes in the Canada Free Press, "The only place where CO2 is causing temperature increase is in the IPCC computer models."
He says the IPCC has a habit of releasing computer model summaries before climate studies are even completed. He says by doing this, "The summary gets maximum media attention and becomes the public understanding of what the scientists said... they create an appearance of certainty about a human cause of [global] warming."
Adding, "The computer models themselves are completely inadequate to represent global climate... but don't believe me. The IPCC technical report released in 2007, says so

Send A Card to Our Troops
I did the link only took a few seconds
Hi All! This is a great way to say “thanks” to our troops overseas. Please take the time to send a card to a soldier.
XEROX IS DOING SOMETHING COOL
If you go to this web site, www.LetsSayThanks.com you can pick out a thank you card and Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving in Iraq. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed services. How AMAZING it would be if we could get everyone we know to send one!!! It is FREE and it only takes a second. Wouldn't it be wonderful if the soldiers received a bunch of these? Whether you are for or against the war, our soldiers over there need to know we are behind them. This takes just 10 seconds and it's a wonderful way to say thank you. Please take the time and please take the time to pass it on for others to do. We can never say enough thank you's. Thanks for taking the time to support our military!

Deflation, Inflation?
Recently there has been talk in the media about the dangers of deflation in the coming environment. But the electronics and computer industry have been facing deflationary pressures since its inception.
What should the correct level of inflation/deflation. I always assumed a 1-2% inflation rate would be best. But in fact is a very difficult topic. Money is in essence a substitute for work. We exchange our labor for money. Is the value of the labor of the person making your sandwich worth any more yesterday, today, or tomorrow. In some sense the value disappears once the sandwich is eaten. But what is the value of the laborer who built the Roman roads and bridges that last a thousand years?
The news media says the problem with deflation is that it causes people to delay purchases because they can a better deal later on. Eventually causing a slow down of the economy as more and more people delay purchasing things. But the computer industry has faced this pressure, as each year newer items are both better and cheaper. The news media forgets that there is a utility in possessing an object now. The question for the consumer is the utility of possessing the object now worth the possible savings that can be achieved in future.
Of course the savings of a deflationary environment for the consumer may be offset by the lost of wages by the worker and the lost of interest revenue by the saver. Deflation favors the worker who saves in the past, inflation favors the worker of the future.

On Food

"There are more than 1,000 seed banks — including a newly opened, unmanned "doomsday" facility in the Arctic wastes of Norway that will ultimately house more than 1 billion crop seeds. But the one at Wakehurst Place, about 30 miles south of London, says it's the only global facility of its kind, unique for its focus on wild species, not just crops."
