It’s impossible to know what to expect in the two weeks leading up to the election. Obviously we’re going to see various “revelations” about Hunter/Joe Biden, coming from the least likely, most far-fetched sources imaginable, and God only knows what form they’re going to take.
Trump’s problem, however, is that anger and desperation makes him come across as completely, rather than partially, insane. His claims have become so asinine that even his supporters are starting to shake their heads in disbelief. (more…)
Eventually, Bill Moore of EVWorld.com fame, asked, “Okay, someone explain the physics here. Newton’s 3rd law of action/reaction. Air being forced into an umbrella is dispersed into a wider surface area then if he simply pointed the blower behind him?”
I was hoping that some smart person like Bill would come along and notice that the laws of physics, specifically, Newton’s 3rd law of motion (for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction) makes this impossible; it’s staged.
Given this set-up, the guy would actually be moving backward, because the thrust in reverse would be greater than forward. If he threw away the umbrella and aimed the leaf blower behind him, there would be some (extremely small) forward thrust.
Think about the jet engine. The airplane is propelled forward because mass is being shot out the back.
Sea-level rise is of great concern to climate scientists and, of course, to those who live in flood-prone regions. What’s interesting, though, is that certain coastlines are far more affected by this phenomenon than others.
Why? Well, it’s explained in full here, but the short version is that the oceans don’t rise evenly, as they were one huge collection of connected bathtubs. They slosh around, like enormous kiddie pools, and that sloshing undergoes some steady forces that make it non-random.
I hate to sound unsympathetic, but perhaps this is a question they should have been asking themselves before they decided to work for a criminal sociopath. This is especially true of those who came along later in his term, when all of Trump’s horrible characteristics had become even clearer than they were at first and his behavior became ever more erratic and self-serving.

Vancouver became the first city to sign an initiative called the “Fossil Fuel Non-Proliferation Treaty,” an effort along the lines of earlier global agreements that the world put into place to prevent nuclear war and the destruction of Earth’s ozone layer.
The Paris Accord has similar aims, though it doesn’t specify how and when fossil fuels should be phased out.
John Francis Kelly is a retired U.S. Marine Corps general who served as the White House Chief of Staff for President Donald Trump from July 31, 2017, to January 2, 2019. He had previously served as Secretary of Homeland Security in the Trump administration.(more…)
I’m curious on your take on what seems like an increase in anti climate change events like the one you reference in your post (“Are Environmental Protectors “Alarmists?”). That video has probably a very small influence, compared to, for example, the terrible “Planet of the Humans” by Michael Moore, of which I saw numerous interviews with (director) Gibb and Moore.(more…)
