POPSWhat?! The Weather Channel Has Been Muzzled? More on this here: http://www.ncac.org/science/20051004~USA~NOAA_Restricts_Scientists_Access_to_the_Press.cfm Well, if our government has done this, I am sure there was a very good reason. The weather stations were probably asking for it, rogue reporting and such!

POPSPlacebo Very good article on market place of bizarre therapies and drugs in treatment of 'mental illness'. Deserves critical engagement of intellect which won't please some. (BTW, 'placebo' means 'I will please').

POPSDirector of Meteorology: Americans Should Go After Gore And Hansen "It's back to the drawing board for Hansen and company as the alleged ‘consensus' over man-made climate fears continues to wane and more and more scientists declare their dissent," said Sen. Inhofe. Hear, hear! Readers are strongly advised to review all of the articles NewsBusters has published concerning the junk science being advanced by Hansen the last two decades. *****Update: Please don't miss fabulous posts concerning this matter by CEI's Chris Horner published at NRO's Planet Gore such as this, this, and this. In particular, don't miss Horner exposing Hansen for staging his June 1988 Congressional appearance by timing it for the hottest day of the year, and having the air conditioning turned off in the hearing room to make it especially toasty. Also, D'Aleo has more here.

POPSTWC Founder Advocates Suing To Expose Global Warming Fraud Coleman told an audience at the 2008 International Conference on Climate Change on March 3 in New York that he is highly critical of global warming alarmism. “The Weather Channel had great promise, and that’s all gone now because they’ve made every mistake in the book on what they’ve done and how they’ve done it and it’s very sad,” Coleman said. “It’s now for sale and there’s a new owner of The Weather Channel will be announced – several billion dollars having changed hands in the near future. Let’s hope the new owners can recapture the vision and stop reporting the traffic, telling us what to think and start giving us useful weather information.
