Alert the conspiracy theorists!  In the latest bloody nose for the pro-global warming science community, more flawed data has been released showing that your average global warming/climate change report from the UN organization Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is about as accurate as your average seventh-grade book report.  In this case, a factual error in a 2007 report says that 55 percent of the Netherlands is under sea level and at risk of catastrophic flooding.  In fact, only 26 percent of the country is below sea level and 29 percent of the country is susceptible to flooding due to being near a river. 

This comes in the wake of an announcement last week that the IPCC’s position on the melting of the glaciers in the Himalayas is incorrect, and that the belief that the Himalayas may melt by 2035 is based on information from a non-scientific source (AKA a guess).  They’re attempting to pass the blame for this most recent set of bad data onto the  Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency, but I doubt that will work.  The damage from those leaked emails concerning the cover-up of inconvenient data continues to build.

Todd Magill, a struggling actor and wannabe writer and/or editor, wasn’t having much luck in the real world.  After his graduation with an English degree from Fordham University, he went through the same problems most former English majors go through as he struggled to find a real-world application for his basically useless English skills.  Unfortunately [...]

Those British sure do love their tea.  Anywhere they are, when it’s tea time, then it’s time to have a nice hot cup of tea, with the emphasis being on hot.  With any hot beverage, you have to be careful because you might burn yourself.  That’s exactly what happened on a Ryanair flight, when a [...]

James Jay Lee, the protestor seen above, has had a long history of having a grudge against The Discovery Channel.  The network, Lee believed, wasn’t doing its part in promoting environmentalism.  Specificially, James Jay Lee’s extreme brand of environmentalism, zero population growth, which says that humans are a scourge on the earth and that people [...]

Once upon a time, Facebook was the elite social networking website.  Anyone could hop onto MySpace, but only people enrolled in certain colleges could get on Facebook.  These days, any fool with an email address can be on Facebook, and that, along with a lot of other issues involving the company’s privacy policies and heavy-handed [...]
