ah groovy, take note of the time bud, i am on Scottish - freeze yer nads off time_ it was thus late and my brain was functioning on borrowed time from what should have been a weed induced nap!
oops i am typotastic this fine day... "shot yourself in the foot" is what it should have said
those little "heat islands" do not cause actual global warming at all, just the localised heating of the area due to the better heat retention properties of urbanised areas over rural area.
wow.. you are entering into a debate about global warming and you don't even know what the CRU is?
well let me inform you, it's the Climate Research Unit..... they pretty much supply ALL the data for global warming enthusiasts world wide.
due to a hefty data breach a massive amount of emails and even some entries made by the poor coder who was commenting how the numbers didn't add up and things were all balls
also the were many many many emails between "respected" climate researchers" which showed them chatting about how they "played the numbers" and 2used tricks" to make up for the fact the global temperatures haven't been going their way and thus they played the numbers, used selected numbers from selected stations and ignored others then conspired.. YEAH they actually did, to perpetuate the falsehood of their finding... heads rolled and resignations came..
and BTW i live in Scotland, where we have oil BUT we are also pretty much the European leader in renewables and very very high up there in the world stakes
also changing from global warming to climate change is a cop out.
more and more evidence is coming forward that shows a SHIT load of people are blowing smoke out their asses about the human cause of "global warming" and an awful lot more people are profiteering by the spreading of utter FUD about it too.
and the global warming hero Al fucking gore.. the rankest of all the hypocrites... spreading FUD AND a major shareholder in Occidental Petrolium and also making a fortune from the carbon con. ther are some facts about gore that may surprise you
br. always odd how when the smell of bullshit is often along the same path as the smell of hypocrisy and money
lol... it doesn't deny climate change, what it does do it show where source material came from
also i think you'll find that little things such as the CRU data leak which showed them to be a bunch of number fiddling and lying turds also throw doubt on the human cause of any climate change.
now where you have people fiddling numbers and using dubious sources i think it's not unreasonable to have reasonable doubt. there also happens to be an ASSLOAD of people making truckloads of money out of ittwinned with a mass of rank hypocrisy
and to top it all and i am going to quote the article you linked to
"We relied rather heavily on grey [not peer-reviewed] literature, including the WWF report," Lal says. "The error, if any, lies with Dr Hasnain's assertion and not with the IPCC authors."
But Hasnain rejects that. He blames the IPCC for misusing a remark he made to a journalist. "The magic number of 2035 has not [been] mentioned in any research papers written by me, as no peer-reviewed journal will accept speculative figures," he told New Scientist.
"It is not proper for IPCC to include references from popular magazines or newspapers," Hasnain adds.
so there's a remark apparently taken out of context however the person who apparently made the comment cant distance himself enough from it and damns the IPCC for using it.
UN climate change panel based claims on student dissertation and magazine article
The United Nations' expert panel on climate change based claims about ice disappearing from the world's mountain tops on a student's dissertation and an article in a mountaineering magazine.
By Richard Gray, Science Correspondent and Rebecca Lefort
Published: 9:00PM GMT 30 Jan 2010
The revelation will cause fresh embarrassment for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which had to issue a humiliating apology earlier this month over inaccurate statements about global warming.
The IPCC's remit is to provide an authoritative assessment of scientific evidence on climate change.
n its most recent report, it stated that observed reductions in mountain ice in the Andes, Alps and Africa was being caused by global warming, citing two papers as the source of the information.
However, it can be revealed that one of the sources quoted was a feature article published in a popular magazine for climbers which was based on anecdotal evidence from mountaineers about the changes they were witnessing on the mountainsides around them.
The other was a dissertation written by a geography student, studying for the equivalent of a master's degree, at the University of Berne in Switzerland that quoted interviews with mountain guides in the Alps.
The revelations, uncovered by The Sunday Telegraph, have raised fresh questions about the quality of the information contained in the report, which was published in 2007.
It comes after officials for the panel were forced earlier this month to retract inaccurate claims in the IPCC's report about the melting of Himalayan glaciers.
Sceptics have seized upon the mistakes to cast doubt over the validity of the IPCC and have called for the panel to be disbanded.
This week scientists from around the world leapt to the defence of the IPCC, insisting that despite the errors, which they describe as minor, the majority of the science presented in the IPCC report is sound and its conclusions are unaffected.
But some researchers have expressed exasperation at the IPCC's use of unsubstantiated claims and sources outside of the scientific literature.
Professor Richard Tol, one of the report's authors who is based at the Economic and Social Research Institute in Dublin, Ireland, said: "These are essentially a collection of anecdotes.
"Why did they do this? It is quite astounding. Although there have probably been no policy decisions made on the basis of this, it is illustrative of how sloppy Working Group Two (the panel of experts within the IPCC responsible for drawing up this section of the report) has been.
"There is no way current climbers and mountain guides can give anecdotal evidence back to the 1900s, so what they claim is complete nonsense."
The IPCC report, which is published every six years, is used by government's worldwide to inform policy decisions that affect billions of people.
The claims about disappearing mountain ice were contained within a table entitled "Selected observed effects due to changes in the cryosphere produced by warming".
It states that reductions in mountain ice have been observed from the loss of ice climbs in the Andes, Alps and in Africa between 1900 and 2000.
The report also states that the section is intended to "assess studies that have been published since the TAR (Third Assessment Report) of observed changes and their effects".
But neither the dissertation or the magazine article cited as sources for this information were ever subject to the rigorous scientific review process that research published in scientific journals must undergo.
The magazine article, which was written by Mark Bowen, a climber and author of two books on climate change, appeared in Climbing magazine in 2002. It quote
oh right so the linked article which shows that they used a geography students dissertation and an anecdotal story from a climbing magazine is a nonsense? it's been in many papers, on the BBC news and also on a few other programs too
so the basis of that IPCC report, as stated above, is totally unscientific shite.....
perhaps you should be the one going to the fridge and pouring yourself a nice tall glass of STFU my friend
LOL it was on BBC TV that the "expert that the IPCC got the "data" from was a geography students Dissertation
it was also splattered all over the Telegraph LINK HERE
the IPCC is so full of it that they have to use info from a student , which is not peer reviewed and is just an opinion of a pup in the greater scheme of things.
i think i'll take the word of the Indians and take my hat off to them for taking a stand against the UTTER SHITE that that IPCC spews! just goes to show the sheer desperation of them to use such flimsy nonsense especially after all the leeks showing the gaming of the numbers and the selective use of the Data
indeed, i have a 32 inch TV here and it's NOT connected to an aerial but to my PC and is essentially used as a monitor. they have check it and approved it as a situation where no license is needed
WRONG!
if you do not use watch LIVE broadcast tv, whether via aerial, cable or software services such as www.tvcatchup.com then you DO NOT NEED A LICENSE!
i know this because i do not pay a TV license and have even invited the guys round to prove it after getting a letter from them.
there is enough FUD spread about tv licensing such as you HAVE to let their guys in when they call. you do NOT , they have absolutely no powers of entry and those guys themselves are not even govt employees, they work for a contractor.>br>
thre are even doubts about the amounts of detector staff/vans there are ofcom will not answer any questions on this.
so spreading more crapioca aboutit doesn't help to clear the FUD fog away.
Watching TV on the internet
You need to be covered by a licence if you watch TV online at the same time as it's being broadcast on conventional TV in the UK or the Channel Islands.
Video recorders and digital recorders like Sky+
You need a licence if you record TV as it's broadcast, whether that's on a conventional video recorder or digital box.
Mobile phones
A licence covers you to watch TV as it's broadcast on a mobile phone, whether you're at home or out and about.
It makes no difference how you watch TV - whether it's on your laptop, PC or mobile phone or through a digital box, DVD recorder or TV set - if you use any device to watch or record television programmes as they're being shown on TV, the law requires you to be covered by a TV Licence.
note the "AS it's been shown "stipulation , youtube is not live so you, my friend are spreading utter FUD
James the JUST....... Why not read some Origen where it is mentioned and also his name is mentioned in the dead sea scrolls.
so erm... how can James be the half brother is joseph wasn't his father....... and Mary wasn't James brother.... that doesn't make the "half" anything.. that would make them , i suppose , "step brothers" or you could be suggesting that joseph IS the father of Jesus and thus popping the immaculate conception bubble yourself
According to the Church Fathers, he has posthumously been described as the first Bishop of Jerusalem, and is believed to be the author of the Epistle of James in the New Testament, the first of the Seventy Apostles, and originator of the Apostolic Decree of Acts 15. In the Epistle to the Galatians Paul of Tarsus describes his first visit to Jerusalem where he met James and John and stayed with Cephas. James is described by Josephus and the New Testament as being "the brother of Jesus", and in the Liturgy of St James as "the brother of God" (Adelphotheos).
so erm... you are blind to the epistle of James or were those pages ripped out your KGV?..lol
oh and remember when Saul/Paul had to plead with Roman soldiers he was a Roman citizen to be saved from being thrown off the walls of Jerusalem?.. erm.. yeah.. it was James and his followers who were going to do that.
they were doing so as what Saul/Paul was doing(ie preaching to the diaspora[actually he was diaspora himself you know] and also preaching to non jews) was absolutely vile and a heresy in the eyes of the ULTRA orthodox jews such as James
funny how you don't even know about the book you seem to defend
then perhaps they should LOOK at the GREAT BIG HINTS in what i wrote
are you trying to tell me that no-one on/. can use the gift of google or knows how to find stuff on torrent sites?
however for thsoe that need spoonfed
James the Brother of Jesus: The Key to Unlocking the Secrets of Early Christianity and the Dead Sea Scrolls
Bart D Ehrman look out for his stuff from The Teaching company on audio and video
then there are many and various looks att he dead sea scrolls and also the apochrypha in which Ehrman is a specialist.
of course the smarter people will have already googled this info and started learning using their own learning skills instead of having top be spoon-fed
for those that cannot start learning from what i have stated here then maybes they will grow gills and walk backwards into the sea!
the bible wasn't put together by the pope. it was compiled by the [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Council_of_Nicaea]Council Of Nicaea[/url] which was called together by Emperor Constantine
well there are more learned men such as Bart D Ehrman(a world class and respected authority in the subjects i touched upon) who would not only beg to differ with you but probably have a chortle to themselves at your answer.
i stated nothing that cannot actually be backed up fully and entirely by very learned men with a VAST amoutn on knowledge which you clearly are not in posession of.....
the first Bishop... hmmmz that'd be James The Just.... you know the guy who nearly had Saul/Paul thrown off the walls of Jerusalem for generally recruiting the diaspora and non jews to the "faith".
James the Just was the.. BROTHER of Jesus, the ELDER brother according to every writing contemporary to the times.
he was the first "Mebakker"(bishop/guardian)
funnily enough just after Constantine thought it'd be a great idea to perpetuate the Roman empire thought the Church of Rome there first appeared the fake entries in "Josephus : Antiquities of the Jews" which mentioned Jesus in an allegedly contemporary writing.
while Josephus DID indeed write the Antiquities of the Jews" the entries regarding Jesus were proven to be slotted in.
the same technique that identified the different authors of the bible was used to discover that the entries were indeed faked. The antiquities of the Jews also mentions James as the brother of Jesus and this could also be written off as fakery were it not for this also being said BY Origen in around 234 when quoting Josephus but makes no mention of the "Testimonium Flavianum" (wee bio of jesus) and also mentioned in the Dead Sea SCrolls (see James the Brother of Jesus: The Key to Unlocking the Secrets of Early Christianity and the Dead Sea Scrolls)
so... if James was his ELDER half brother..... how can the immaculate conception have occurred...... let me help you.. it didn't it just helped weave in the mythology of other Romano/Greek deities into the mix.. i could go on the the rest of the mythology surrounding jesus and his alleged story but i can't be bothered atm.. am on call and may have to shoot out and tend to my flock of clients who can't find their own ass with a map as far a their PC's go
"i could care less" now that implies that you DO actually care......
now if you said "i couldn't care less" then that would be more on the spot and correct
while i agree with the sentiments of your post the let down was.....ESPECIALLY for an academic, the poor use of phrase..
mod me down... call me a troll.. whatever.. but in this wee matter i am correct i just don't get it when people say "i could give a shit" or " i could care less" an exception being "like i could give a give a shit"
all i can say is i COULDN'T give a shit and COULDN'T care less if you mod me down for it.

cube was indeed a fantastic movie.. it was based on a film from the 60's by , of all people, Jim Hensen of muppets fame.
see linky here
while not as gruesome as the remake still quite a decent movie in it's own right

oops i am typotastic this fine day... "shot yourself in the foot" is what it should have said
those little "heat islands" do not cause actual global warming at all, just the localised heating of the area due to the better heat retention properties of urbanised areas over rural area.
here is a prime example of one such poorly sited weather station in my own city of Edinburgh and this one is on a main bus route situated next to a carpark at my own doctors surgery
and a better street view of it here
insightful? erm..... how can a guy who fails, to actually understand the significance of "urban heat islands" be marked insightful?
shotgun you do realise that you have just "hot yourself in the foot"?
wow.. you are entering into a debate about global warming and you don't even know what the CRU is?
well let me inform you, it's the Climate Research Unit..... they pretty much supply ALL the data for global warming enthusiasts world wide.

a quick google of CRU would have helped

however i think it you google a little you will find the net awash with 3660 hits for "IPCC student dissertation climbing magazine"
the fact this guy ALSO distances himself and damns the report are just more bullets for my gun as it were my friend
oh right... so those articles are entirely wrong...?
i am getting my facts right bud.....
try reading the linked and even copied article above... and possibly weep into the beverage of your choice..........
