Republican presidential candidate Jon Huntsman appeared to take a notably more skeptical view towards current climate change science Tuesday, saying that the “scientific community owes us more” on the issue and that not enough solid research exists to “formulate policies” based on global warming. “I’m not a scientist, I’m not a physicist, but I would [...]
He does have to resign first, yes?
m.guardian.co.uk http://m.guardian.co.uk/environment/2011/aug/12/rick-perry-climate-sceptics-president?cat=environment&type=article But plugging your ears and going “la la la la” doesn’t make global warming disappear. Perry’s state is getting absolutely hammered by heat and the worst one-year drought in its recorded history. The hot, dry weather in Texas is desiccatingrivers and lakes, devastating farmers and ranchers, and driving wildfires that have burned up [...]
What Happens When I Get Really Angry
This is probably just a coincidence, but I realized my frustration with the current debt ceiling debate, which had been building for months and finally bubbled over the past week or so, has had some severe consequences. Sorry about that. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, has put together this animation of the phenomenon with [...]
Clearing off the desktop…
…sometimes I fall behind. So to catch up, I just dump a lot of stuff with short commentary and reboot the browsers so my computer can think again. Here goes… First up is an acknowledgement of the change to Arizona law. This took away the worst of it, but I’d expect the rest to be [...]
Only 57 violations?! Galt could have done better
Fun thread and interesting thread here. [orig story here] I would hope those that are lost now are found and those that are lost forever are remembered. The West Virginia coal mine where an explosion killed 25 workers and left another four unaccounted for in the worst mining disaster since 1984 had amassed scores of citations [...]
Paging Palin, Petroleum Pundit (Cap’n Trade Dissection)
To catch you up *real* quick, I’ve been away and Sarah Palin quit as Governor of Alaska. A number of other big things have happened since I last wrote, and we’ll be addressing a number of those in short order, but as I like to talk a bit about policy and big things from time [...]
Holy Shit, I Still Have a Website.
My lord, I’ve been spending too much time on Facebook. I’ve neglected my role here, as RPN. My deepest apologies. To catch you up to the story quickly (this would be Chapter 12 for those reading at home), our hero in the story has taken to walking the Earth in order to save it. Which [...]
The World This Week, March 22, 2009
[videos forthcoming] US NEWS People thieving the electrons. Obama: Economy hurts. Duh. Obama Budget Strategy raises questions. New home construction gets a lift (month-to-month). Small business help on the way. Fed prints money like mad. A couple economists agree that printing money is a good idea…today. China wants a new global currency standard. Palin to [...]
More Stuff I Won’t Get to Write About, at length (dang editing)
Computer power and intelligence. I actually did a video bit about this one the other night. Hopefully I’ll get it edited soon. Simple fact: We DO NOT WANT TO CREATE AN AI! Really, it would not be a good thing. What invasive species are trying to tell us. Shaq isn’t human, he’s dancer. (Thanks, Case!) [...]
The First Two Chapters Are Up
As mentioned a little while back, I am putting the blog on hold and writing a book. O.k. I didn’t do such a good job of that (as the latest posts can testify) but that hasn’t stopped the book from coming along nicely. They can read be read here. I’d love to get some feedback [...]
Robots and Pirates in the News (Ninja absent…but they’re Ninjas…so…)
There have been major news stories in the last couple of weeks involving robots and pirates making war. The ninjas are staying out of the spotlight, but as that is their nature, this shouldn’t be noted as evidence that they aren’t very busy. First up, the pirates… NAIROBI, Kenya (CNN) — Pirates who hijacked a [...]
