The National Climate Assessment’s Simple Hoax

By David Wojick, Ph.D. ~ The recently released National Climate Assessment (NCA4) is a perfect example of what I have called the one-word hoax (Will versus Might). This hoax is to say that extreme events that “might” happen (but are extremely unlikely) “will” happen. NCA4 systematically pushes this simple hoax. Many analysts have pointed out … Continue reading "The National Climate Assessment’s Simple Hoax"

Ending The Catastrophe In Yemen?

DownWithTyranny at DownWithTyranny! - 16 minutes ago
*by Reese Erlich* I’m on a low-budget book tour, sleeping in spare bedrooms and munching granola in the kitchens of progressives all along the East Coast. Many had felt beaten down and pessimistic from two years of Trumpism. But I now sense some optimism and a renewed fighting spirit. Just look at the surprising battle in the Senate over US participation in the Yemen War. On Nov. 28, Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Mike Lee (R-UT) co-sponsored a War Powers Resolution calling for an end to U.S. participation in the conflict. Trump tried to quash the effort, but 63 Democratic an... more »

*“Defense Mechanisms: Beyond Behavior”* by Madisyn Taylor, The DailyOM “We can let go of our defense mechanisms when we are ready to be truly honest with ourselves. We all have defense mechanisms that we’ve developed over time, often without being aware of it. In times of trouble, the behaviors that have worked to get us past challenges with the least amount of pain are the ones that we repeat; even when part of us knows they no longer work. Such behavior is a natural response from our mental and physical aspects. But because we are spiritual beings as well, we have the ability to ... more »

Accept all that you've said and what you've done, because you cannot change your past. Accept the idea of the unknown, because the future is the unknown waiting patiently to reveal itself. Accept the person you have become thus far in your journey, because you are the only person who will be there with you when you finish it. Do all of this so that you may never find yourself having to accept regret that haunts you at two a.m., leaving you sweaty and broken hearted... more »

*“Why Space and Time Might Be an Illusion”* by George Musser "This year the world of physics celebrated the 102nd anniversary of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity, which forms the foundation of our modern understanding of the force of gravity. Einstein’s creation has been the ultimate antidote to a blasé, seen-it-all attitude that sometimes infects even scientists. It opened up a universe that never ceases to surprise — black holes, the big bang, dark energy, gravitational waves — jolting us out of the grooves of thought that we fall into all too easily.

U.S Deficits Are Coming Home To Roost

War News Updates Editor at War News Updates - 3 hours ago
*Scott Sumner, The Hill:* *Our deficits may finally be coming home to roost* With a new Congress set to take office, the most recent projections have the U.S. budget deficit reaching nearly $1 trillion in 2019, or more than double the level of 2015. The deficit is a perennial topic of discussion for politicians, reporters, pundits and economists, yet many people have difficulty understanding why it’s a problem. Spending more than we take in sounds irresponsible, but how does the deficit actually impact the life of average Americans? The downside is especially hard to see when def... more »

U.S. Air Force photo by Airman 1st Class Dalton Williams *Defense One*: *White House Seeks Alternatives to Independent Space Force* Pentagon leaders were dutifully double-timing toward a new military branch.

But since Oct. 26, they have been marching to new White House orders: go back and look at different ways to reorganize the military’s space operations. One of the four new options is a... more »

Al Sharpton Sells Rights to His Life Story. No,Really.

Diogenes Sarcastica™ at Diogenes' Middle Finger - 6 hours ago
*NYP - *The Rev. Al Sharpton has found an eager buyer for the rights to his life story — his own charity. The National Action Network agreed to pay the activist preacher $531,000 according to the non-profit’s latest tax filing, which was obtained by The Post. NAN can apparently turn around and sell those rights to Hollywood or other takers at a big profit, but neither the reverend nor the charity would identify what producers are waiting for such Sharpton content. The document does not indicate when Sharpton, who is president of NAN, gets the cash, which is above and beyond the $24... more »

*Is this why the GOP lost?* The Republicans were shocked when the final vote count in CA-21, dealt them a 7th lost seat. No one really expected TJ Cox to beat David Valadao. The final forecast from FiveThirtyEight gave Valadao a 79% chance at reelection. The last public poll showed Valadao beating Cox 50-39%. Instead, the anti-red wave did Valadao in. His massive loss in Kern county wasn’t balanced out by wins in Fresno, Kings and Tulare counties and the latest total has Cox ahead by around 600 votes-- 50.3% to 49.7%. Two years ago Valadao beat Emilio Huerta-- son of the legendary D... more »
