POPSFrom Global Warming Believer To Skeptic Until all this is known, it’s not possible to say with any confidence how much of global warming theory will remain after all the fraud and deceit has been removed. And until climate science is cleaned up, it doesn’t deserve the worship so many in the media unthinkingly give its tainted practitioners.

POPSEliminating the Medieval Warm Period "But the UN's official verdict that the Medieval Warm Period had not existed did not erase the countless schoolbooks, encyclopedias, and other scholarly sources that claimed it had. Rewriting those would take decades, time that the band members didn't have if they were to save the globe from warming."

POPSVitamin D3 Dosage They experts all seem to agree, Vitamin D3 offers additional therapeutic benefits with no or very limited increase in side-effects when consumed in far higher doses than had been approved for manufacture prior to 2008. The article is based upon a study documented in a paper that was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition (AJCN), and cites a variety of sources including the FDA.

POPSThe Christmas Truce 1914 (A True Story) Go here to listen at storytellers: http://www.theamericanstoryteller.com/story-details.cfm?story=116 I love this story! Hope you like it. In our age of uncertainty, it's comforting to believe, regardless of the real reasoning and motives, that soldiers and officers told to hate, loathe and kill, could still lower their guns and extend the hand of goodwill, peace, love and Christmas cheer.

POPSRedheads-Nationally Designated Targets This article is about middle school kids taking a Facebook message about "Kick a Ginger (Red-headed person) day" and acting upon it, quite violently. What I see from it is how easy it is to become a "legal victim" in our culture. I don't really believe that the age or location of these participants really makes any difference.

POPSClimateGate: hiding the decline ‘Any scientist ought to know that you just can’t mix and match proxy and actual data’... CRU 'can't be trusted' says MP.... ‘I know there is pressure to present a nice tidy story as regards “apparent unprecedented warming in a thousand years or more”.’ But his conscience was troubled. ‘In reality the situation is not quite so simple - I believe that the recent warmth was probably matched about 1,000 years ago.’

POPSThe Coming Ice Age "Earth’s climate is controlled by the Sun. In comparison, every other factor is trivial. The coldest part of the Little Ice Age during the latter half of the seventeenth century was marked by the nearly complete absence of sunspots. And the Sun now appears to be entering a new period of quiescence. August of 2008 was the first month since the year 1913 that no sunspots were observed. As I write, the sun remains quiet. We are in a cooling trend."

POPSClimateGate: the raw data "We have five different records covering Darwin from 1941 on. They all agree almost exactly. Why adjust them at all? They’ve just added a huge artificial totally imaginary trend to the last half of the raw data!....One thing is clear from this. People who say that “Climategate was only about scientists behaving badly, but the data is OK” are wrong. At least one part of the data is bad, too. The Smoking Gun for that statement is at Darwin Zero."
