Circadian clocks are found within microbes and bacteria, plants and insects, animals and humans. These clocks arose as an adaptation to dramatic swings in daylight hours and temperature caused by the Earth’s rotation. But we still don’t fully understand how these tiny biological clocks work.

The galactic rotation anomaly, whereby there is a flattening of the rotational velocity curve with radius, was the prime driver for development of the theory of ‘Dark Matter” by Jan Oort and Fred Zwicky in the 1930s, reinforced by Vera Rubin over 30 years later based on more observations of galactic rotation.

She concluded that the mass densities of galaxies were uniform well beyond the galactic bulge, requiring that some form of ‘invisible’ matter be present to account for the rotational anomaly on a purely gravitational basis.

We all recall the hysterical reactions from global warming alarmists whenever an Antarctic glacier calves and a huge chunk of ice cap breaks away in the summertime.

The headlines would scream: Ice chunk as big as Manhattan breaks off! (due to global warming, they want us to believe).

In a World first, Australia’s Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) has declared that the “noise annoyance” caused by wind turbine generated low-frequency noise and infrasound “is a plausible pathway to disease”.

At the AAT hearing in Adelaide, the impacts of wind farm noise were considered by a senior Federal Court judge; the most thorough medical and scientific inquiry on the subject matter conducted in Australia to date.

Eighteen years ago, Britain’s top climate experts announced the end of snow.

According to Dr. David Viner, a senior research scientist at the climatic research unit (CRU) of the University of East Anglia, within a few years winter snowfall will become “a very rare and exciting event”. “Children just aren’t going to know what snow is,” he said.

The German Bosch co. is no longer planning to “re-invent” batteries for the propulsion of cars, according to an article published in the Munich, Germany, daily Sueddeutsche Zeitung ( http://www.sueddeutsche.de/wirtschaft/e-autos-bosch-gibt-forschung-zu-neuen-autobatterien-auf-1.3886227 ).

The article states, inter alia (translated from German):

In November, scientists from New Zealand used a hot water drill to go deep into Antarctica’s Ross Ice Shelf. The shelf, which can be up to 10,000 feet thick, is the largest of several that hold back West Antarctica’s massive amounts of ice. If these were to collapse, global sea level would rise by ten feet.

The Arctic is melting catastrophically! Sea ice levels are experiencing their most precipitous decline in 1500 years! Something must be done – and fast…

Well, so claims the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and we know by now what that means, don’t we? Yep: the Arctic sea ice is doing just fine. Yep: yet again, the NOAA is telling porkies.

In just the first 8 weeks of 2018,  97 scientific papers have been published that cast doubt on the position that anthropogenic CO2 emissions function as the climate’s fundamental control knob…or that otherwise serve to question the efficacy of climate models or the related “consensus” positions commonly endorsed by policymakers and mainstream media sources.

Oil and natural gas aren’t just fuels. They supply building blocks for pharmaceuticals; plastics in vehicle bodies, athletic helmets, and numerous other products; and complex composites in solar panels and wind turbine blades and nacelles.

The USA was importing 65{154653b9ea5f83bbbf00f55de12e21cba2da5b4b158a426ee0e27ae0c1b44117} of its petroleum in 2005, creating serious national security concerns. But fracking helped cut imports to 40{154653b9ea5f83bbbf00f55de12e21cba2da5b4b158a426ee0e27ae0c1b44117} and the US now exports oil and gas.

This paper was conceived while attending the Electric Universe Conference in Phoenix in 2017.  While the Einstein Universe postulates time as a fourth dimension, this postulates a non-time fourth dimension, i.e., another spatial-type dimension, although we cannot perceive it.

Just as in “Flatland,” a 19th century novella that has often inspired comparisons of inter-dimensional phenomena, particularly how phenomena in dimension n + 1 would be manifested to observers restricted to dimension n, the possibility of light or the Coulombic force being a lower-dimensional (third) manifestation of a higher-dimensional (fourth) phenomenon is considered.  Given our inability to deal with four dimensions, with n = 2, a possible analogy with an extension to n = 3 is considered geometrically as a surrogate.

Users of sixteen of the world’s most prestigious optical telescopes – including the Hubble Space Telescope – are revisiting old data in case an analogue-to-digital converter design has polluted the instruments’ measurements.

Analogue-to-digital converters (ADCs) are where the real world meets the digital, and in the case of the optical telescopes, they convert pixel data from the charge-coupled devices (CCDs) in the instruments’ cameras.

An international group of researchers trying to identify what looked like a systematic error in an instrument in Hawaii discovered the ADC’s reference voltage could be affected by the ADC’s output – in other words a feedback error.

I published the following article on Canada Free Press (CFP) in 2010. I also posted it to my web site in 2012. This posting was required because CFP withdrew all my articles from their archive at my request. I did this because CFP published an apology written by Roger McConchie, lawyer for IPCC author and Green Party leader in British Columbia, Andrew Weaver. I was not aware of this action but in the three lawsuits filed against me by McConchie he also files against the outlet for the article. I pursued a “not guilty” defense against the lawsuit and as was reported here, the judge dismissed the case.

The use of obscene or taboo language – or swearing, as it’s more commonly known – is often seen as a sign that the speaker lacks vocabulary, cannot express themselves in a less offensive way, or even lacks intelligence.

Studies have shown, however, that swearing may in fact display a more, rather than less, intelligent use of language.

While swearing can become a habit, we choose to swear in different contexts and for different purposes: for linguistic effect, to convey emotion, for laughs, or perhaps even to be deliberately nasty.

‘Strong Influence Of Solar Activity’ On 1850s-2014; Ocean Temperatures, ‘Small Contribution From CO2’

According to the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (UN-IPCC) and computer modeling, the Sun’s role in modern-era climate change checks in at somewhere slightly above nothing.
