Nobel Prize Stealer Gore Limits Media

What a shocker. Thuh duh-bate is over, remember. Al Gore avoiding debate and/or scrutiny; that's as typical as Special Sauce on a Big Mac.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Former Vice President Al Gore may have narrated an Oscar-winning documentary on global warming, but he appears to be a little cool toward the camera for a speech in North Carolina.

A Gore aide said Tuesday that media members will only be allowed to record video and audio of the first five minutes of Gore's talk at Duke University on April 8. Photography will also be limited. Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider said the restrictions are standard for his talks but she wouldn't say why they are in place.

New Year Brings Deadly COLD Worldwide

The empirical evidence associated with GLOBAL COOLING has piled on over the past several years, even while alarmists refuse to acknowledge it, or--laughably and ironically--they chalk all the cold weather up TO global warming (i.e., climate change revisionism). Here, the DEADLY cold weather is attacking AROUND THE WORLD, including India (again)!

Yep. In warmer periods of our history--like the Medieval Warm Period (which alarmists want you to forget about)--humans have prospered, while cold is far more deadly.

New Delhi - At least 17 people died as towns and cities in India's northern states were hit by cold weather, officials said on Friday.

"Sixteen people have died in Uttar Pradesh since early Wednesday due to cold [weather] conditions in the state. Most victims were homeless or pavement dwellers," state police spokesman G N Khanna said.

RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) - Forecasters say the coldest stretch of weather in years if not decades could be heading for North Carolina.

They predicted no let up in the freezing snap until at least mid-January, with snow, ice and severe frosts dominating.
And the likelihood is that the second half of the month will be even colder.

Weather patterns were more like those in the late 1970s, experts said, while Met Office figures released on Monday are expected to show that the country is experiencing the coldest winter for up to 25 years.

On New Year's Day 10 extreme weather warnings were in place, with heavy snow expected in northern England and Scotland.

Copenhagen Poetic Justice: Part Two

While all the socialist idiots gathered in Copenhagen to pat each other on the back and spend your money on bullshit, record winter weather started piling up in United States. Seems to happen every time these morons hold a protest or conference. This doesn't include the snow that was falling on Copenhagen; the CO2 from all the hot air prevented the snow from being too severe. LOL!

All the experts says the effects of climate change will be felt most in Alaska, home of the ex-governor who contends climate change is no big deal.

Good thing she wasn't in Valdez this week when the citizenry got buried under a record snowfall. We're not talking about your ordinary little dump here. That was in Copenhagen, where world leaders were meeting to discuss what to do about global warming and the Bloomberg news service was warning that Barack Obama and the rest would "face freezing weather as a blizzard dumped 10 centimeters (4 inches) of snow on the Danish capital overnight.''

Four inches overnight? Valdez got more than four inches per hour at the height of the snowstorm that began there Monday and ran through the week. By the time the citizens of Alaska's only oil port finally caught a break, the snow was piled 5 feet, 8 inches deep.

A travel-disrupting snowstorm began over western North Carolina Friday and is spreading northeastward across Virginia tonight. The storm is destined to become a blizzard by late Saturday, while hammering part of the mid-Atlantic with perhaps a foot of snow, strong winds and coastal flooding. The storm will make for slippery driving in parts of the South. Some roads and airports could close for a time in the mid-Atlantic.
