Paris is a city where you always discover new things - or old things that are new to you (i.e. to me). I was wandering around the university area, near the rue du Pot de Fer where George Orwell lived: he was just Eric Blair in those days, but this is where [...]

in the climategate codes? Powerline writes:
The decline being hidden is that reflected by tree ring data in recent years. The point, as suggested above, is that narrowing tree rings during a time when we know temperatures were rising proves that measuring the diameter of tree rings is a worthless way to measure world-wide [...]
Maybe the CRU emails were not hacked by mysterious Russian black hats but inadvertently posted on a public FTP by insiders at CRU. Well, predicting the future of weather and network security -- they're both really hard.
Speaking of stupidity: I don't even know what to say about this. [...]
How many climate scientists or any other rational people would bet their own money on these models? If you are just a bit cynical to begin with, it sounds like the data going into the models are, uh, crap, and the code itself is a complete, rubbishy mess. The [...]
I've been in Paris teaching a mini-course at the Sorbonne on US constitutional law. (In English, I hasten to add.) In class once or twice I've alluded wryly to the fact that France, like all European Union nations, no longer really governs itself. The students smile ruefully each time. They [...]
In the last couple of years, I have gotten back into music and spend a large amount of time listening to music at my computer. For those who do not illegally download, there are still very affordable ways of listening to music at your computer.

About the hacked e mails, its reporter/blogger writes:
The documents appear to have been acquired illegally and contain all manner of private information and statements that were never intended for the public eye, so they won’t be posted here.
Apparently this policy does not apply to military secrets. (Hat tip: [...]
One additional thing worth pointing out about these emails. They are hardly unexpected. For anyone following this issue, it is clear that the method of operation of the global warming folks is to use the consensus of the scientists as a club to shut up any opposition. But it is [...]
Over at JamulBlog.
It will be interesting to see how many eyes will analyze this data. Over time an impression of what the warmer scientisticalists were up to will emerge.
I recant now from calling this what looks like a major criminal conspiracy. That was overheated. Something like, a spontaneous and [...]
Jones and others are saying the emails are being quoted "out of context." Well, here's the context.
I'm all for not jumping to conclusions, hearing both sides and all of that. So I will just say what this looks like: This looks like crooks cooking the scientific books on what [...]
The New York Times headline reads: "New Consensus Sees Stimulus Package as Worthy Step." One then reads in the article:
While some conservatives remain as skeptical as ever that big increases in government spending give the economy a jolt that is worth the cost, Martin Feldstein, [...]
Man, this is really bad.
This isn't just scientific fraud, this is (assuming it's not some sort of elaborate hoax, which it sure does not seem to be) a major criminal conspiracy. These so-called scientists seem to be motivated by getting huge grants, millions of dollars, and presumably [...]
Recently, the Obama Administration sought to deny that Fox News was a news organization. Apparently, this was not a new trick. Consider this excerpt from the e mails hacked from a prominent climate researcher:
“This was the danger of always criticising the skeptics for not publishing in the “peer-reviewed literature”. [...]
Belichick was right to go for it. I like to think I try not to make the mistake of going passive in risky situations, but on reflection, I can think of as many times when I did this as when I did not.

This is getting ridiculous. Can it really be true that lawyers who formerly represented terrorists are now inside the DOJ working on matters regarding what to do about the terrorists? A former law professor is one, reportedly. Now that's just not right. I don't know what the DOJ rules [...]
