Cyber_Liberty Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 NASA images show equivalent of 689,290 dust-filled semis moving from Sahara to Amazon Headline. Amazing that can calculate down to the 10's the number of "semis" need to hold the dust. Of course they don't mention the size of the semis. Bad enough they think the have estimated correctly 182 million tons from satellite data. FTA: The high-quality video above details even more information about the dust migration and truly makes you feel like the Earth is a giant organism taking good care of itself by moving nutrients from one place that has little need for them to another where they act as valuable plant food. Or, as Yu says: "This is a small world, and we're all connected together." Great. Now I'm going to have that effing song running through my head all day (Anybody's who ever been to Disneyland/World knows what I mean.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valin Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 The Week in Pictures: #FreeTheGrijalva7 Edition Steven Hayward February 28, 2015 Really, I haven’t had this much fun since Climategate (which, incidentally, I’ll be revisiting in the next couple of days). But if you really want to see what a theater of the absurd the environmental world has become, check out the story about Sharon Stone being sued for backing out of an anti-Chevron protest in Eucador. Seriously? Sharon Stone is your protest headliner? What—Leo DiCaprio wasn’t available? Anyway, this week’s Grijalvations provide a good excuse to round up a “best of” climate material from Weeks past, plus one or two new ones. Because why haven’t we heard from Al Gore yet? But first up, lookie what I discovered on the trail map of the ski mountain where I’m currently looking for global warming. I may have to wander by and snap a selfie. (Snip) (Snip) No, no, Al: you hold your Green Weenie Award this way! (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) (Snip) And finally. . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SrWoodchuck Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Some NSFW language. A Few Thoughts On Current Events http://taxicabdepressions.com/?p=2479 Posted: 2nd March 2015 by Taxi Hack in Uncategorized Tags: Politics If you have read my post The Pig Trap, you know of my absolute bewilderment at the current state of our country. Our government is utterly lawless, just making s^#@ up as they go along, creating regulations and executive edicts to bypass the Congress and the Constitution, committing crimes in the furtherance of those goals, and nobody ever gets in trouble, unless he screwing someone he shouldn’t be, and nobody ever loses their job or goes before a judge, and most importantly, nobody seems to give a f%@#. Everything is just f%#%@#$ dandy, as long as we can binge-watch Girls and Entourage on HBO GO and Katy Perry’s next single doesn’t suck and that hot chick from Club Plush texts me next week… I wake up every day around two or three in the afternoon, make a cup of coffee and turn on the news, just waiting for the day when it finally happens, the day that something finally snaps, and I am listening to Sheppard Smith breathlessly trying to describe shaky video of a mob of 500,000 or 800,000 pissed off taxpayers that has invaded Washington and are lining every street in D.C., armed to the teeth, and erecting scaffolding on the National Mall. Actually, that’s not how I think it is going to go, but I promise you… what can not go on, will NOT go on. A couple days ago, a five member panel of unelected bureaucrats called the FCC voted 3 to 2 to seize control of the internet for the Federal government, without so much as a “by your leave” to the Congress. It’s not like your Congressman or Senator did this, these were three UNELECTED political appointees, all DEMOCRATS, which I think is worthy of mention, and they just decided that they have the power to regulate what you say and what you view on the internet, without asking you what YOU think about that. They came up with a big fat Rule Book For The Internet that they would not show to the public before the vote, and now that they have deemed they have the authority to do this and voted to institute their new Rule Book For The Internet, they STILL won’t show the public their new Rule Book For The Internet. How is that not a Joe Biden-sized Big f%#%@#$ Deal for you? THREE PEOPLE you never heard of and certainly never voted for just took over control of the internet for the government, and they are not showing the public what the new rules will be. Does that mean websites will have to get a government “license”, like radio stations? And will they have a list of bad things they can’t say, or they will be fined and maybe even LOSE their license? Nobody knows, because they will not show the public the rules they are creating. What if you call some dude in your Twitter feed a faggot, and you get a $25 ticket, deducted from your debit card or your ApplePay or your Paypal or your Netflix account? Will you need a “user’s permit”, or a government assigned ID that tracks your every website and keystroke, because terrorism, or something…? Can they suspend your access if you are deemed to be an insensitive homophobe or racist, or even BAN you from the internet? Nobody knows, because they will not show the public the rules they are creating. I swear, I have asked dozens of people about this in my car over the last few nights, and the most cogent reply I have heard was something like, “Whatever… as long as my NetFlix is streamin’ good, and I can play Call of Duty without any lag, I’m chill…” Obama has granted amnesty to some five million illegal immigrants via executive order. There’s just one problem with that; HE CAN’T DO THAT. He has said so himself, in public, on camera, more than twenty times. But he just did it, in a naked and blatant display of unconstitutional criminality, and resistance to this act seems almost nonexistent in Washington. Just a few days ago, it was learned that the Treasury Department gave three billion dollars to several large insurance companies to keep them afloat, because no thinking person wants to sign up for this horseshit called ObamaCare, and the insurance companies will go bankrupt giving away “free” healthcare without total taxpayer compliance. There’s just one problem; THEY CAN’T DO THAT. Only Congress can authorize the spending of taxpayer money, and when Ways and Means Chairman Paul Ryan, kind of a stickler when it comes to money, asked the Treasury about it, they basically told him to f%@# off. Sweet Jesus… can you imagine the uproar if George Bush illegally ordered the Treasury to give three billion taxpayer dollars to Exxon and Haliburton, and told the Congress to piss off? The Internet would be melting down and the Democrat Congress would be drafting impeachment documents before the sun went down. Dan Rather might have suffered a stroke on-camera. That’s a lot of money, by the way… I know it is hard to get your head around, but let me whip out my handy yardstick… there are 86,400 seconds in a day. Most people can grasp that; converted to dollars, that’s a modest house, a really nice car, or a boat guaranteed to get you laid. Three billion seconds ago was 1920. So try to imagine the giant warehouse required to stack up $86,400 in one hundred dollar bills every day since 1920. That’s a lot of f%#%@#$ Benjamins. I’d be interested to know how many dump trucks it takes to haul that to the bank. Let me repeat: This was not on the television news and in damned few newspapers. How is this not the sort of thing that puts angry people in the street, and Congress demanding (figurative) heads on platters? If you went into work tomorrow and diverted $3,000 of company money to someone without authorization, you would be arrested and charged with theft and embezzlement. But the government just stole THREE BILLION TAXPAYER DOLLARS and gave it to huge corporations, and it doesn’t even make the news. Don’t liberals hate big corporations and the One Percenters like Mitt Romney that run them? Does the phrase “corporate welfare” ring any bells here? Where is the outrage, liberals? Where is the outrage, media? Where is the outrage, Congress? Why is no one in handcuffs? How is this not a Constitutional crisis that blows runaway llamas and dumbass “I can’t breathe” protests off the internet? Am I the only one that noticed this? Why isn’t Paul Ryan himself calling a news conference on this matter? Via TheFeralIrishman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
