OOPS! MIT Researchers Debunk Global Warming Data...Report Confirms President Trump Was Right To Pull Out Of Paris Climate Agreement * 100percentfedUp.com
"“Scientists” were exposed for manipulating climate data during the 2011 ‘Climategate’ scandal when 5,000 emails were released from scientists proving that the science behind their studies is inconclusive and mostly a result of manipulating climate data to fit the political message they were trying to convey.
Three themes emerged from the emails that were released in the Climategate scandal: "

How did dogs become our best friends? New evidence - BBC News
"Dogs most likely evolved from wolves at a single location around 20,000 to 40,000 years ago, a study suggests.
Previously, it had been thought that dogs were tamed from two populations of wolves living thousands of miles apart.
...said the process of dog domestication began when a population of wolves moved to the outskirts of hunter-gatherer camps to scavenge for leftovers.
''Those wolves that were tamer and less aggressive would have been more successful at this," he explained.
"While the humans did not initially gain any kind of benefit from this process, over time they would have developed some kind of symbiotic relationship with these animals, eventually evolving into the dogs we see today.''
...The research, published in Nature Communications, suggests even the dog breeds and village dogs found in the Americas and Pacific Islands are almost completely derived from recent European dog stock.
This is probably due to prolific dog breeding in Victorian times..."

First statewide bicycle tax in nation leaves bike-crazy Oregon riders deflated - Washington Times
First statewide bicycle tax in nation leaves bike-crazy Oregon riders deflated - Washington Times:
"In Oregon, a state known for its avid bicycling culture, the state Legislature’s approval of the first statewide bike tax in the nation has fallen flat with riders.
Democratic Gov. Kate Brown is expected to sign the sweeping $5.3 billion transportation package, which includes a $15 excise tax on the sale of bicycles costing more than $200 with a wheel diameter of at least 26 inches.
...Oregon Republican Party Chairman Bill Currier blasted what he described as Ms. Brown’s “endless obsession with finding new and innovative ways to take money out of the pockets of Oregon taxpayers.”"

The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates - Slashdot
The Myth of Drug Expiration Dates - Slashdot:
"Hospitals and pharmacies are required to toss expired drugs, no matter how expensive or vital. Meanwhile the FDA has long known that many remain safe and potent for years longer.
The box of prescription drugs had been forgotten in a back closet of a retail pharmacy for so long that some of the pills predated the 1969 moon landing.
Most were 30 to 40 years past their expiration dates -- possibly toxic, probably worthless.
But to Lee Cantrell, who helps run the California Poison Control System, the cache was an opportunity to answer an enduring question about the actual shelf life of drugs:
Could these drugs from the bell-bottom era still be potent?
Gerona and Cantrell, a pharmacist and toxicologist, knew that the term "expiration date" was a misnomer.
The dates on drug labels are simply the point up to which the Food and Drug Administration and pharmaceutical companies guarantee their effectiveness, typically at two or three years.
But the dates don't necessarily mean they're ineffective immediately after they "expire" -- just that there's no incentive for drugmakers to study whether they could still be usable.
Tests on the decades-old drugs including antihistamines, pain relievers and stimulants.
All the drugs tested were in their original sealed containers.
The findings surprised both researchers:
A dozen of the 14 compounds were still as potent as they were when they were manufactured, some at almost 100 percent of their labeled concentrations..."

Hobby Lobby Just Announced Plan To Close ALL Stores – Founder Reveals The Alarming Reason Why…
Hobby Lobby Just Announced Plan To Close ALL Stores – Founder Reveals The Alarming Reason Why…:
"In an open letter, Hobby Lobby Founder and CEO David Green revealed that he may close down all 500 stores in 41 states, because of religious persecution began by the Obama Regime.
The personal and heartfelt letter emotionally chronicles Green’s battle with the government and his commitment to follow God’s teachings, even if it means, that after 40-years of being one of the most recognizable and well received stores in America, he will close down his business."

In this research report, the most important surface data adjustment issues are identified and past changes in the previously reported historical data are quantified.

It was found that each new version of GAST has nearly always exhibited a steeper warming linear trend over its entire history.
And, it was nearly always accomplished by systematically removing the previously existing cyclical temperature pattern.
And, it was nearly always accomplished by systematically removing the previously existing cyclical temperature pattern.
This was true for all three entities providing GAST data measurement, NOAA, NASA and Hadley CRU.
...The conclusive findings of this research are that the three GAST data sets are not a valid representation of reality.
...The conclusive findings of this research are that the three GAST data sets are not a valid representation of reality.
In fact, the magnitude of their historical data adjustments, that removed their cyclical temperature patterns, are totally inconsistent with published and credible U.S. and other temperature data.
Thus, it is impossible to conclude from the three published GAST data sets that recent years have been the warmest ever –despite current claims of record setting warming.
Finally, since GAST data set validity is a necessary condition for EPA’s GHG/CO2 Endangerment Finding, it too is invalidated by these research findings.
