By Lord Christopher Monckton of Brenchley | March 5, 2021 The New Pause continues. To the end of December 2020, it was 5 years 4 months. To the end of January 2021, it was 5 years 6 months. To the end of February 2021, it is 5 years 7 months: Up to December 2020, for which I have data for two satellite and two terrestrial datasets, UAH and RSS showed the shortest Pause, while HadCRUT4 shows the longest, at 6 years 6 months: The difference between the lengths of the New Pause in versions 4 (6 years 6 months) and …

  by Willis Eschenbach | March 3, 2021 There’s a new study out that uses previously overlooked or obscure sea-level records to extend the UK sea-level record back to 1832. It provides an interesting look at the question of possible acceleration in sea level records. The study is called “Changes in mean sea level around Great Britain over the past 200 years“. The data is available in Appendix A of the study. Here are their results: Now, is there acceleration in this record? The problem with that question is that it is well-established that there are long-term cycles in the tides …

By Christopher Monckton of Brenchley | March 2, 2021 Boris Johnson, ambitiously described as a Prime Minister, has flatulently tried and humiliatingly failed to persuade the Security Council of the Untied Nations that “Cloimate Chynge is a threat to our security”. That he should thus have wasted the first opportunity in three decades for Britain to chair the Security Council shows how poor is his judgment both about matters of science and about what does and does not constitute a threat to national and international security. Does this look like a Prime Minister? Sister Flatulenta of the Breath of Heaven, …

(David’s Capital), Yom Shishi (Sixth Day – “Friday”), 23 Nisan, 5759 (April 9, 1999) [Day Eight in Sefirat HaOmer], Root & Branch: INTRODUCTION: This paper was originally presented at the Second International Conference on Jews in a Changing World, held in Riga, Latvia on August 25-27, 1997. The only one of its kind where Eastern European Jews discuss their past, present, and future ethical, cultural, social, and intellectual challenges, the conference was sponsored by the Memorial Foundation for Jewish Culture of New York and the Soros …

Gerald Schroeder One truth as seen from two vastly different perspectives and both true – literally.                                                                                                    October 2013 One of the most obvious perceived contradictions between Bible and science is the age of the universe. Is it billions of years old, like scientific data, or is it thousands of years, like …

Basically, Texas has its own grid to avoid dealing with — you guessed it — the feds. But grid independence has been violated a few times over the years — not even counting Mexico’s help during blackouts in 2011. Texas Tribune by Kate Galbraith | Feb. 8, 2011 | Updated: Feb. 15, 2021 Why does Texas have its own electric grid? Texas’ secessionist inclinations have at least one modern outlet: the electric grid. There are three grids in the Lower 48 states: the Eastern Interconnection, the Western Interconnection — and Texas. The Texas grid is called ERCOT, and it is …

IEEE Spectrum By David C. Wagman | 08 Aug 2018 Fortifying connections between three disparate grids could make renewable energy more widely available The U.S. electrical grid is really made up of three largely separate grids with puny transmission connections at the seams. These seams cross sparsely populated rangeland in the middle of the country. The Eastern Interconnection serves much of the United States east of the Great Plains. The Western Interconnection covers residents from the Great Plains to the Rockies and up and down the West Coast. And most of Texas has a grid of its own. Policymakers there …

OK Energy Today August 9, 2018 Is it time for a convergence of the three separate power grids creating the U.S. electric transmission network? According to a recent article published by David Wagman in IEEE Spectrum, the results of a seam study finds considerable economic and engineering value in fortifying the connections to better distribute power resources around the country. The study was conducted by researchers at the U.S. Energy Department’s National Renewable Energy Laboratory and presented last month at the TransGrid-X Symposium at Iowa State University. The Eastern Interconnection grid is located east of the Great Plains. The Western …
