----------------------------------------During the last 7 days the temperature I monitor from over 2400 weather stations around the Globe has fallen off a cliff  Note this is a rolling image updated hourly so if you are reading this in the future it might not look as drastic as the one we are looking at today  When it's pigging freezing Dear World I am sorry about the damage I am inflicting on the Globe I am sitting here writing this post in front of a lovely gas fire and the laptop (on my lap) is toasty as it it is making it way through 4 Mapping Cancer Markers Work Units But it's 5C outside and that's as warm as it's going to get today and I'd perish along with all my Countrymen and Women with hypothermia if I didn't have supplemental heating provided by Man's greatest discovery Fire Apologies for the non-existent planetary warming Dave [Edit 2 times, last edit by David Autumns at Nov 24, 2013 9:57:39 AM] |

(Take 2 Chrome crashed on me
---------------------------------------- )It would be easy to imagine being on a cliff overlooking an ancient sea with what we see today as the Sea Bed  This was taken today from Sutton Bank above the White Horse of Kilburn overlooking the Vale of York Google Maps https://www.google.com/maps/preview#!data=!1m...2250281!2m1!1e3&fid=7 Easy to imagine  - but everything on that picture is dry land. One thing my Parents showed me as a kid was the this Planet has a long history and you can see some of those effects in the landscape today Earlier I took this  my house is on that pic  It's pretty bleak in Yorkshire today - not much light at this time of year It was taken from Otley Chevin which looms over the town. Google Maps https://www.google.com/maps/preview#!data=!1m....893475!2m1!1e3&fid=7 In the pic you can see why - that's Millstone Grit. The Chevin is composed of the stuff. It resisted, like Arncliff Crag further down the Wharfedale Valley, the glacier that carved out the valley below. Glaciers in Yorkshire ??? Yes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interglacial We are just a scratch on the surface of this planet and we had best not forget that.

----------------------------------------http://www.theglobalthermometer.com/wcg/pano.jpg What is amazing about this is I put the photo's in a folder, imported the folder and it (almost) instantly stitched them together and I just cropped the result with picasa3 ! Computers are insane these day Sorry I'm old school |

Why TEPCO is Risking the Removal of Fukushima Fuel Rods. The Dangers of Uncontrolled Global Nuclear Radiation
----------------------------------------After repeated delays since the summer of 2011, the Tokyo Electric Power Company has launched a high-risk operation to empty the spent-fuel pool atop Reactor 4 at the Dai-ichi (No.1) Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. The urgency attached to this particular site, as compared with reactors damaged in meltdowns, arises from several factors: - over 400 tons of nuclear material in the pool could reignite - the fire-damaged tank is tilting badly and may topple over sooner than later - collapse of the structure could trigger a chain reaction and nuclear blast, and - consequent radioactive releases would heavily contaminate much of the world. http://www.globalresearch.ca/why-tepco-is-ris...nuclear-radiation/5359188  |

2013 Atlantic hurricane season wrap-up: Least active in 30 years
----------------------------------------Calling Alibi (Gore). Where are you Alibi? Ready to give back your Nobel prize yet? Maybe they can start a new category so you can keep it. How about the Nobel prize for Scam of the Century?  And for all you prediction "experts," maybe you should find another line of work, like raising chickens so they can run around yelling "the sky is falling". 2013 hurricane forecasting not even close
