Climategate: The Official Whitewash Continues The international panel charged with looking into the East Anglia email controversy has issued a report that fails the smell test at every level. April 14, 2010 - by Myron Ebell The University of East Anglia’s carefully selected “International Panel” released their report on the ClimateGate scientific fraud scandal today. At eight pages, it’s not even a thorough whitewash. They don’t even make a minimal effort to rebut the obvious appearance of widespread data manipulation, suppression of dissenting research through improper means, and intentional avoidance of complying with Freedom of Information requests. It appears that they concluded that the only way they could produce a whitewash and protect the interests of the establishment was by making only the most superficial investigation. Perhaps they realized that doing more than taking the representations of Phil Jones and the others on trust would involve them in the moral difficulty of having to choose between being honest and maintaining their exoneration. The seven panel members only looked at eleven published articles from CRU selected on the advice of the Royal Society. And all eight panel members didn’t read all eleven papers. Instead, “Every paper was read by a minimum of three Panel members at least one of whom was familiar with the general area to which the paper related. At least one of the other two was a generalist with no special climate science expertise but with experience of some of the general techniques and methods employed in the work.” Perhaps the third reader was a chimpanzee. Yes, they have done a thorough and professional whitewash. However, the report makes one concession, which is quite damning: “We cannot help remarking that it is very surprising that research in an area that depends so heavily on statistical methods has not been carried out in close collaboration with professional statisticians.” In fact, the handling of the historical temperature data and production of the Hadley/CRU temperature record by Jones et al. and the handling of the paleoclimatological data and fabrication of the hockey stick by Michael Mann et al. was only possible because they hid their data and methods from professional statisticians. When professional statisticians were able to look at Mann’s methods and data, the result was the Wegman report, which was devastating. pajamasmedia.com

Glacial goose bumps! Arctic ice at 10-year high Amid proof of junk science, Obama pushes carbon taxes April 12, 2010 © 2010 WorldNetDaily wnd.com To the dismay of Al Gore and global-warming alarmists, ice covering the Arctic has increased dramatically after years of declining, reaching levels not seen this time of year for nearly a decade, Jerome Corsi's Red Alert reports. "Arctic sea ice reached its maximum extent for the year on March 31 at 15.25 million square kilometers (5.89 million square miles)," the National Snow and Ice Data Center stated in a recently published report. "This was the latest date for the maximum Arctic sea ice extent since the start of the satellite record in 1979." "Still, Corsi noted, "the Obama administration appears determined to tax carbon emissions, either with Congress through an energy bill, or without Congress through the Environmental Protection Agency, declaring CO2 to be a chemical noxious to human beings – even though humans exhale it." On April 1, the Environmental Protection Agency began imposing new greenhouse gas emission rules on U.S. vehicles with a set of new regulations that boosted fuel efficiency standards for the first time since the 1970s. By the end of this month, the EPA is expected to tailor greenhouse-gas rules to require "major polluters," defined as plants that emit more than about 75,000 tons of greenhouse gases a year, to get permits and demonstrate what technology they are implementing to limit their greenhouse gas emissions. By March 31, 2011, major polluters will be forced to submit annual reports to the EPA disclosing their progress with reducing emissions of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide. Opponents to EPA administrator Lisa Jackson's proposed regulations have until June 1 to file legal challenges with the appeals court. To learn more about global-warming junk science and Obama administration's efforts to regulate CO2, read Jerome Corsi's Red Alert, the premium, online intelligence news source by the WND staff writer, columnist and author of the New York Times No. 1 best-seller, "The Obama Nation." Red Alert's author, whose books "The Obama Nation" and "Unfit for Command" have topped the New York Times best-sellers list, received his Ph.D. from Harvard University in political science in 1972. For nearly 25 years, beginning in 1981, he worked with banks throughout the U.S. and around the world to develop financial services marketing companies to assist banks in establishing broker/dealers and insurance subsidiaries to provide financial planning products and services to their retail customers. In this career, Corsi developed three different third-party financial services marketing firms that reached gross sales levels of $1 billion in annuities and equal volume in mutual funds. In 1999, he began developing Internet-based financial marketing firms, also adapted to work in conjunction with banks. In his 25-year financial services career, Corsi has been a noted financial services speaker and writer, publishing three books and numerous articles in professional financial services journals and magazines.
