A Few Headlines

No Hockey Sticks: Studies Reveal Long-Term Lack of Global Warming
"Numerous other studies have attested this recent cooling in Central Asia, especially China. Temperature readings from 118 national weather stations since 1951 in Northeast China reveal a remarkable and significant cooling in China since 1998, the same year since which global atmospheric temperature failed to show any significant warming. Other studies show this trend over all of China.

China is not the only country to experience this late 20th century cooling.

A dozen peer-reviewed scientific papers published during the past three years reveal that the Arctic ceased to warm and the Antarctic began to cool. Other papers report that the 20th century also saw a significant dip in global ocean temperatures."

Plus, the USA saw record cold temps and snowfall this last winter. The key word here is 'global' - not 'our persistently wrong computer models demonstrate...'

Say, Is ‘Climate Change’ Causing Problems With Home Values Near The Sea?
While working for my long ago former employer, the Kansas City Star, I learned an old adage in the newspaper business that declared, "When the headline is in the form of a question the answer is almost always "No."

Besides, when these elitist global warming hypocrites start acting like its a crisis, then g**d***it, I'll start believing its a crisis.

The pistachios that need police protection
"Centred on the town of Bronte, the pistachio trees grow across some 3,000 hectares (7,400 acres) on the slopes of Etna, an active volcano. Although Bronte pistachios account for just 1% of global production of the crop, they are easily the most expensive...

However, given the lucrative nature of the crop, it attracts a continuing problem during harvesting time - thieves."

Why can't the thieves simply self-identify as the owners?

How Diversity Training Widens the Gulf Among the Races
"Diversity training doesn’t work, according to a 2012 article in Psychology Today. In it, Peter Bregman notes, “Diversity training doesn’t extinguish prejudice. It promotes it,” by dividing people into categories and promoting a belief in inherent differences; “Categories are dehumanizing. They simplify the complexity of a human being. So focusing people on the categories increases their prejudice.”

'Unintended, yet entirely predictable, consequences costing tax payers millions of dollars every year. Leftism truly is a mental illness.

College Board Openly Trying To Skirt The Supreme Court With Secret ‘Adversity Score’
"The score will be assigned to every single student who takes the test, but students will not know what the score is, and the College Board is not disclosing how the score is determined, The Wall Street Journal reports."

It's all part of the wicked 'social justice' ideology which simply means 'Hate Whitey & get revenge.'

"During the hearing, the US attorney announced that Huffman had agreed to a plea deal that included a fine of $20,000 and a four-to-ten month prison sentence. Prosecutors have specifically suggested a four-month term."

Perhaps she could beg the court for an 'adversity score' in hopes of more leniency.

More than 75 universities now host blacks-only graduation ceremonies

Many others also offer similar ceremonies for Latino or LGBTQ student populations. Harvard this year also debuted a “UndocuGraduation” for students in the country illegally."

On May 3, the filing revealed, CEO Jordan Hoffner departed the company. Salon’s longtime chief financial officer, Elizabeth Hambrecht, also jumped ship last October."

Get woke, go broke. At least it will avoid the brutal 'learn to code' announcement.
