POPSThree Decades of Global Cooling As we enter another little ice age, idiots in the Peace Prize recipient's administration are still pushing for the economy killing "cap and trade". Idiot Pennsylvania coal miners who voted for this monstrosity now are losing their jobs by the thousands. Surely they should have seen this coming.... 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 2010 !!

POPSThe Crisis of Global Land Use
Meeting these huge new agricultural demands will be one of the greatest challenges of the 21st century. At present, it is completely unclear how (and if) we can do it. If this wasn't enough, we must also address the massive environmental impacts of our current agricultural practices, which new evidence indicates rival the impacts of climate change. Consider the following. Already, we have cleared or converted more than 35 percent of the earth's ice-free land surface for agriculture, whether for croplands, pastures or rangelands. In fact, the area used for agriculture is nearly 60 times larger than the area of all of the world's cities and suburbs. Since the last ice age, nothing has been more disruptive to the planet's ecosystems than agriculture. What will happen to our remaining ecosystems, including tropical rainforests, if we need to double or triple world agricultural production, while simultaneously coping with climate change? Yes, it is an inconvenient truth as the origi

POPSWH Science Czar John Holdren: Ice Age Will Kill 1 Billion
Holdren and Ehrlich had previously articulated the theory in their 1973 textbook "Human Ecology: Problems and Solutions" in which they argued on page 198 that the main effect of carbon-dioxide-induced global warming "might be to speed up circulation patterns and to bring arctic cold farther south and Antarctic cold farther north." On page 377, the authors returned to their constant theme: The only way to control a foreseen increasing global food crisis was to control population. Noting that a 1967 presidential science advisory commission had concluded that the solution to the "world food problem" likely after 1985 "demands that programs of population control be initiated now." (Emphasis in original text.) Commenting on the conclusions of the 1967 presidential advisory report, the authors wrote, "We emphatically agreed then, and the situation is even more urgent today." A controversial report released earlier this month by the Congressional Budget Office, or CBO,

POPSNew Clovis-Age Comet Impact Theory "Highest concentrations of extraterrestrial impact materials occur in the Great Lakes area and spread out from there," Kennett said. "It would have had major effects on humans. Immediate effects would have been in the North and East, producing shockwaves, heat, flooding, wildfires, and a reduction and fragmentation of the human population."

POPSThin green line is bad science "On Tuesday, Inhofe issued a statement from Capitol Hill that noted how scientists with independent views don't get on too well with the IPCC. Witness Chris Landsea of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, who resigned from the IPCC this year because He believed an IPCC top hurricane scientist wrongly linked severe hurricanes to global warming; as a result, He wrote, "the IPCC process has been subverted and compromised, its neutrality lost."

POPSEurope's 1st Farmers Were Segregated, Expert Immigrants Central and western Europe's first farmers weren't crafty, native hunter-gatherers who gradually gave up their spears for seeds, a new study says. The two lineages "don't look like the complete set of ancestors necessary to build the modern gene pool," Burger said.

POPSrestaurant: Pho Ga Hai Phong, Oakland
New restaurant in our neighborhood. Tasty food. More: Since age 9, Mommy had to cook all the meals for her entire family of eight, because her parents were out working hard to catch fish on their boat all day. She learned to make soup broth and other simple meals by wandering around and watching the neighbors cook. When she was 13 years old, she learned to make pho and honed her Vietnamese culinary skills…Mommy often worked in various restaurants…as a dishwasher or assistant in the kitchen, where she observed the chefs preparing exquisite dishes…It was Mommy’s dream to be the head chef of a restaurant where she could determine the menu items and share her home-style cooking and serve her family's favorite dishes, such as Pho Ga, Bun Rieu (vermicelli noodles with shrimp, crab, and egg soup), clam chowder, BBQ short ribs, and New York steak with everyone. This is why the Pho Ga Hai Phong menu offers 3 distinct cuisines: Vietnamese, Chinese, and American.

POPSIce Returns as Greenland Temps Plummet "The mayor cautioned against thinking that the freezing temperature indicated that global warming claims were overblown. He noted that a nearby glacier had retracted more in the past two decades than in recorded history. But he noted “‘We Greenlanders have acclimated to changing conditions over the past 1100 years,” said Frederiksen. “Temperatures change at regular intervals.”"

POPSSwiss seek Pope's blessing to stop glacier melting more: "The residents of Fiesch and Fischertal hope that this will happen in September or October and are optimistic that the Holy Father will decide in their favor as he has repeatedly spoken out about climate change," they said in a statement. Switzerland's glaciers shrank by 12 percent over the past decade, melting at their fastest rate due to rising temperatures and lighter snowfalls, a recent study showed. Glaciers are a key source of water for hydro-electric plants in Switzerland as well as an important tourist attraction. Researchers are predicting that the temperatures in the Swiss Alps will rise by 1.8 degrees Celsius in winter and by 2.7 degrees Celsius in the summer by 2050.

POPSIceland in HDR (20 photographs) “From an early age I enjoyed paging through books about art and admired the paintings of many painters, ranging from the renaissance masters to contemporaries as well as the few painters working in my home town of Vestmannaeyjar, Iceland. Nowadays I find inspiration for my photography in the works of painters like Edvard Munch, Odd Nerdrum, Lucian Freud and J.M.V. Turner, as well as in many of the classic and contemporary photographers.“ Ásmundur E. Þorkelsson

POPSIt's Not Just That Global Warming Is Fake. What Matters Is Why This Fakery Is Being Promoted. Read the full article by clicking the link at the top, but here is the conclusion: Conclusion If you like poverty, inefficiency, and bureaucratic controls over the economy, and therefore control over your choices, the "climate change" movement is ideal. If you want to subsidize China and India, neither of which will enforce the rules laid down by unelected international bureaucrats, this movement is for you. If you want to pay more for less energy, there is no better way than to pass the cap and tax bill which the House has passed. It will be sent to the U.S. Senate next week. The rest of us should oppose it.

POPS1952 Outbreak Still, back then, officials could not quiet the fear that gripped Far Rockaway and nearby communities, even though they reminded people that the disease was not spread casually. Carol Schwartz, Eddie’s sister, recalls going to a friend’s house to bake brownies. “I was completely healthy,” she said recently, “but her mother screamed at me to get out. Thankfully, some aspects of health care have changed since 1952. At Meadowbrook Hospital on Long Island, where doctors established a makeshift quarantine ward for the Hi-Li campers, Eddie was allowed no direct contact with his family. His parents could only wave to him from a nearby window. But good memories have persisted, too. He returned for several summers afterward, and by age 12 he had decided on his own career. Today, at 63, he is the rabbi at Temple Beth Shalom in Hastings-on-Hudson, N.Y “After that summer,” he said, “my mother would always tell me I had been saved for a purpose.”
