Quantifying Sea Level Fall | Watts Up With That?

Struggling with science is healthy. What we see is the difficulty of squaring the range and scale of influences. Governments make policy based on science, but what may seem good logic may fall apart owing to forces not included in the analysis. In other words, policy or belief may be incorrect over the long term because the analysis is partial and suddenly reversible, as in the sand pile effect. We often can't see around a corner until we create an instrument that allows us to see artificially what is actually hidden from view! A problem science has to deal with all the time, yes all the time!

Global cooling coming? Archibald uses solar and surface data to predict 4.9°C fall (!) « JoNova: Science, carbon, climate and tax

The jury is out as to the long term implications of rising cO2 on the climate. We are certainly experiencing global warming, especially now!? What still needs to be understood is what is causing the warming .. trends and cycles of sun spots, changes magnetic fields on the sun, or composition of gases on earth and the green house effect?

Articles: Could Forrest Gump Plan Our Economy?

Scott Mayer is flying high in his critique of Krugman. However, in his analysis he makes a basic flaw. The flaw is that the free market has the answers. It may if you were to assume it repatriated profit back to th US and then distributed a reasonable amount as dividend. Being a good citizen is not th free market which has no citizenship priorities. In fact, the free market is actively involved in destroying the environment never thinking it should pay damages! Mayer is so of he mark on this as to be morally bankrupt!

Note to Krugman: Greece Proves Keynesian Economics Wrong - Forbes

Spending more to get the Greece economy moving is the only policy that will work, but why does it not work. Balance is the key. It's possible to introduce balance by spending but both raising interest rates and taxes on specific activities. The problem Greece has is debt with low interest rates. Borrowing got Greece into a mess, but was it a domestic problem or an international one? Gregory talks one way and Krugman another. The question is really Greece's openness and who is taking or sending money out of the country. Is it a domestic issue or an international one? Overinvestment by foreign interests in dubious acquisition projects often masks real domestic issues.

Spotlight on Iran

War with Iran is not an option!

It would not be prudent nor viable.

So stalemate will cotninue into the long term like Cuba until nations forget the rhetoric and realize the war mongering words of Iranian leaders against Isreal is primarily for domestic consumption.

No sane Iranian could really want war, but most are caught in the iranian political process where such extreme talk is popular!

CERN fires most powerful beams yet | ZDNet UK

Finding and verifying the Higgs particle would mean a major leap forward for string theory . It would give greater credence to ideas positing additional dimensions. The higher mathematics of cosmology needs such fields. The assumptions of infinities being resolved as additional dimensions will allow physics to simplify the mathematics of cosmology and string theory.

The flip flops of the magnetic field of the sun and earth's weather patterns

The length of time between solar magnetic field flip flops seems to matter!

Trading the Sun : The influence of the sun on the financial markets and the macro economy :: The Market Oracle :: Financial Markets Analysis & Forecasting Free Website

How affective / subconciously influentual on human emotions are the flip flops in the sun's magnetic fields. We like to think we are independent of such hidden forces, but sun shine makes people feel good, especially in winter months in the northern hemisphere. Sun certainly influences plant growth and agriculture. The sun's rays are almost pure energy waiting to be tapped by all living creatures!

http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article33586.html

Magnetic Cycles

Here is a very clear explanation of the flip flop in the solar magnetic field every 11 yeas and why the Mayan calendar calls for a flip flop in 2012 of the Earth's magnetic field. That this may be a significant event this year is still anyone's guess. That the sun's magnetic field will flip this year is pretty well a certainty. Do you know why?

Space weather risks - an overview from AGCS

It's an interesting concept!

http://www.agcs.allianz.com/insights/expert-risk-articles/space-weather-risk/

The brutal cold of the Maunder Minimum and the Great Irish Frost « JoNova: Science, carbon, climate and tax

Dennis Avery's discussion in the article referenced below on my rereading does not make a whole lot of sense unless you delve deeper into solar machinations. He should be focusing on the disappearance of sun spots emerging in specific areas of the sun and not the totals of sunspots. There is a lag in the upswing of a cycle in the polarward branch of sun spots that lies below a downswing of equatorward branch. The measured count of sun spots is the sum of two parts. If one part is not forming, the lag of its ultimate effect is also not forming.

Avery is in effect warning us that a delay in the polar upswing of sunspots presages a smaller count in total sun spots, at least in the cycle 25. What happens in later cycles to produce a minimum cannot be assumed from such a small sample of data. In other words, it is still too early to be alarmist. The possibility of a cold age has risen, but the probability has remained somewhat the same as always.

Making predictions from such a small data base is alarmist and unnecessarily precient.

It's great that science does not have all the answers.

Major Drop in Solar Activity Predicted: Little Ice Age, part II? « JoNova: Science, carbon, climate and tax

Wonder what the currents within the sun are really up to? Or, are some scientists creating 'facts' to suit another agenda? Who knows?

http://joannenova.com.au/2011/09/major-drop-in-solar-activity-predicted-little-ice-age/

It's important to see the facts beneath the facts that betray the facts above the facts. This is literally the ase in how the sun creates sun spots that drive the earth's heat cycle. Were the sun to shift into lower gear, we would all wonder why we burned up so much oil. We need to conserve energy for a colder rainy day. Seems odd while the weather is so warm we are convinced of global warming and the need to conserve energy so as not to over heat?

Cardinal Wuerl to Newsmax: Obama's Birth Control Mandate Unprecedented 'Invasion'

Yep! Let the unmarried man guide you? Why? For some reason the church sees itself as the moral watchdog on everything. It's time for people to assume moral leadership without so much heavy hand. Loving yourself, and others as much, is at least a beginning, but it requires enormous restraint. If you would save a human soul extend that to all, yes all, life around you. That's the real challenge of the modern age. Guilt is a reflection of having standards. They can be improved and adapted.

Enliven your immediate natural world and strengthen the rainbow of vegetation and creatures that sustain you in a myriad of hiddenways Think and act to renaturalize your homestead and community. For example, that cedar in your garden may be protecting your lungs from cancer?

Wuhlax asks gardeners that they think of new ways that they can further renaturalize your surroundings. You, yourself can think. Do I really need to support as much lawn? Perhaps, in its place, I could create a canopy for wild life by planting a hardwood tree that would actually produce food or provide shelter. Open your seedbank to nature and explore hidden strengths and weaknesses.

Wuhlax asks farmers to discover and let others know what their soil is capable of sustaining without fertilizer? Can your farm reduce it's dependence on energy by self sustaining practices. Does your farm really need a ploughed field? Are there hedge rows that can be nurtured for diversity?

Wuhlax asks everyone whether there are there enough small wild birds and creatures nearby that feed on the flying insects and mosquitoes that bother you? Give your surroundings a chance to rebalance naturally and at the same time help your own health through love of your living spaces. Can you grow food plants, protect the tiny lizard under a log or stone? In what ways can you recapture the strength of the soil around you to feed your natural community. Perhaps, you would share your findings with us here at Scratches to Sketches!

Cut off rather than pull up toxic plants such as wild garlic. Knowing how to control toxic vegetation is as important as knowing how to sustain benign vegetation. As you learn, inform others and share your insights.

Realize that the smallest of birds travel 7,000 kilometers in a single migratory flight across the North Atlantic into deepest Africa. Some fly as much as 14,000 kilometers twice a year!

If you can diversify your landscape for perennials and life that is self sustaining, perhaps you have ideas that you would like to share. If so, I have a gmail address that starts with wuhlax! Or, you can twitter me at @renaturetek.

Fwd: Fukushima Anniversary: How Climate Change Endangers Nuclear Safety

Hi!

Watching how Fukushima was unexpectedly devastated was a sobering experience last year as was the destruction of Christchurch in New Zealand. 

This got me thinking about our own vulnerability.  Fact is that a hurricane hitting Grand Bend and Western /Southern Ontario is more than feasible given past experience! Now its probable and getting distinctly so!

The signs are already there that a freak storm enjoys warm waters such as have been building up this winter over the great lakes and further north! Should we also get a series of Caribbean heat waves, we have to consider that Western Ontario is once again vulnerable to increased threat from hurricane and tornado occurences. 

We saw what happened in Goderich last year. 

Our biggest threat here is possibly hurricane damage. No one can put a probability on such storms, but my guess is that they have gone up!

1.  This week, we have just been bombarded with a record breaking heat generating solar storm and others will continue to hit earth as the sun spot electrical storm cycle rises to its peak in 2012 and 2013! Watch out for sun related cancer! 

2. Tornado alley has moved north, and during this spring/summer we may see higher frequency of tornados in our region.

3. There is a history of very large destructive storms hitting Western and Southern Ontario about once in 50 years. We are overdue.

4. A hurricane is so infrequent that no one believes one will ever strike.

What precautions can we take?

It's important just to realize that a hurricane here is feasible and that the likelihood because of warm waters has increased dramatically.

Our biggest concern would be Bruce Nuclear! What are the risks if it were to be hit very hard by 200 mph winds?  Can we see the cost of nuclear fall out stretching all the way across Ontario towards the golden horseshoe?

Subject: Fukushima Anniversary: How Climate Change Endangers Nuclear Safety

Is Ontario, Canada prepared for a hurricane off Lake Huron combined with a hot 2012 summer bringing hot Caribbean air north? I wonder whether Western Ontario will be habitable in three years time? Scratching your fears or scratching at a hidden truth of Bruce Nuclear's vulnerability to a hurricane as occured with Hazel in 1956! Are you ready for such a storm?

Monsanto Canada Inc. v. Schmeiser - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Scratch your lawn, garden or field surface to sketch your own future with small plants, reptiles and animals and thereby to sustain natural life in a more balanced, productive and diversified way. Enliven your immediate natural world and strengthen the rainbow of vegetation and creatures that sustain you in a myriad of hiddenways Think and act to renaturalize your homestead and community. For example, that cedar in your garden may be protecting your lungs from cancer?

Wuhlax asks gardeners that they think of new ways that they can further renaturalize your surroundings. You, yourself can think. Do I really need to support as much lawn? Perhaps, in its place, I could create a canopy for wild life by planting a hardwood tree that would actually produce food or provide shelter. Open your seedbank to nature and explore hidden strengths and weaknesses.

Wuhlax asks farmers to discover and let others know what their soil is capable of sustaining without fertilizer? Can your farm reduce it's dependence on energy by self sustaining practices. Does your farm really need a ploughed field? Are there hedge rows that can be nurtured for diversity?

Keeping Christ in Christmas | Featured |Axisoflogic.com

Mr. Harris goes well overboard in his criticism of Christians. His words remind me of rantings and ravings of a man with a chip on his sholder who lumps every bad thing into one stockpile of logic before striking a match! One has to ask what the purpose might be. Scratch your head as you scratch your brain with this one!

Britain Threatens Nuclear Attack on Argentina: How little islands are causing big problems…again | Critical Analysis |Axisoflogic.com

Does one have to be on any particular side? In the case of the Falkland Islands, the Marinas Islands distant to Argentina the fishing, settlement and mining issues are heated. The solution is, of course, a moratorium on development and a creation of an international preservation without commercial use other than is suffient for self sustenance of a smallish population. The idea that the islands resources are to be used as commercial enterprises is pretty outlandish and just an expression of competitive land grab mentality of large business! Put the conflict to rest and let no one cash in on these islands.

Vandana Shiva: The Future of Food-Part 2 | Environment/Nature |Axisoflogic.com

We need to think about the food we eat. How is it produced? By whom? Who owns the production? We are blinded by what we remember as an idilic past, and forget the present is pretty barbaric for too many creatures. Or, perhaps we just have not noticed! We need to wake up to the real dangers of our everyday world and how nasty it is, needlessly nasty! Eating squirrels is only a symptom of the modern sickness. It is an expression of how insane our world has become. That is why we need to create pockets of sanity in which we nourish diversity, protect small holdings and a sustainable life style. Your future world is not startrek, but earthtrek, and you really need to be proud of how you shelter the creatures around us.

YOU HAVE REACHED WOOH'S STREAM
The Internet User's Best Kept Secret

Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth. ... more!
