The picture of the week…

…goes to Jo Nova, who not only blogs, but does her own illustrations too.

This satirical road sign made me laugh, I hope it will do the same for you. Looks like it may be on Mars, or maybe out by Ayers Rock.

We’ve all seen road signs in the country that look like this. Read her piece:

My vote for quote of the week goes to “AGW has moved to a ‘gated community'”

OT: but some news from jolly old England:

Britain’s Chief Scientist, John Beddington, calls for engagement with climate skeptics. I, for one, am already married and don’t fancy an engagement with any of the RC crew, but to each their own I guess…

Target practice with a howitzer? Or is that 12ga slugs?
More proof we are being far too gentle on them. You want to knock them down, go for the legs!

Wow! The IPCC is now advertising on Mars. I guess there’s a dire need for global warming on that planet. But apparently, the Martians don’t like it. LOL.

72% for “Not at all” right now.

January 26, 2010 4:39 pm

On ya, Jo!
A bit like other targets, like 20% cuts in emissions…

Ah hell, that’s confusing around here.
We read so much real science on WUWT and elsewhere, we know what the projections of real science are concerning global warming, and can trust them Completely to Somewhat with no reservations. But they’re referring to “CAGW Science” which we trust Little to Not at all. Heck, we trust it less than Not at all, they’ll have to work at it to convince us it is merely completely worthless.
What to choose?!
BTW, who is Lleyton Hewitt and how good is he? I’m not sure how to answer that Australian Open question. Could he win this Open now that Tiger Woods is done for now?

I didn’t do it. I’m a better shot than that.

I like Jo Nova’s picture, but the suicidal penguins are good too…..

Love the graphic.
But, what is much more significant is that the British popular and broadsheet press have picked up the story. That is, the British MSM newspapers have swung to the rational side.
As I wrote to Pachauri on his own web-site 6 weeks ago: “Go back to driving trains; your IPCC is toast”.

To complete the picture Jo made, shouldn’t we have someone from the IPCC drawing bulls eye’s around the bullet holes?
Just as a show of the marksmanship involved, of course…..

the holes are for facilitating GHG mixing in the lower atmosphere, it causes CAGW . . . . stop it

Time to bring in the big guns – lawyers to prove in a court that the IPCC has committed fraud on a massive scale. There’s enough evidence now.

What’s that – a sign at one of the entrances to their “gated community”?

The fact that Little Lleyton was knocked out by Federer is a slight set back, but then worm hole theory might offer him a second bite at the cherry. It was discussed on Special1TV in relation to Arsenal being knocked out of the Champions League last year:

Hey, just a thought:
Where is Kevin Rudd’s message of strong support for the unjustly assailed Nobel Prize Winner??????
I see Ruddles at the kitchen table, head in hands, as if he had a severe alcoholic hangover .. oooh, my head hurts … I just wish all this global hurting went away like a bad dream.

Even if the IPCC science is mostly correct, they have comprehensively lost the battle for the ‘hearts and minds’ we hear so much about when trying to drop a political system onto an unsuspecting populace.

I was arguing with a hippie chick today about GISS surface air temperature readings. During the argument she kept shouting at me “Jizz” this and “Jizz” that instead of the usual “Gee-Eye-Ess-Ess” or “Goddard Institute for Space Studies”. This constant bombardment with “Jizz” completely derailed my train of thought and left me in a temporary state of mental paralysis.
The alarmist practice of using verbal terrorism to disarm and subdue their opponents has got to stop!

Timely Investment Summit on Times Square
According to Wall Street Green Trading Summit founder Peter Fusaro, the two-day conference covers innovations in carbon trading and finance, insights into renewable energy market opportunities, linkages of cleantech investment and carbon trading, among other current topics.
Sessions will feature practitioners and leaders in the field. In addition to Fusaro, the roster of 55 speakers features Greg Arnold, Managing Partner of CE2 Capital Partners, and Nick Baily, Founding Member of Belgrave Climate Exchange, Inc.
“The Wall Street Green Trading Summit IX is the ‘one-stop shop’ to come up to speed on the latest developments in Green Trading and Finance,” Fusaro says.
Fusaro certainly has been at the forefront of change for 35 years in the global energy industry. Fusaro claims to have coined the term “Green Trading.” His experiences and insights have placed him at the forefront of energy consulting, including carbon and emissions trading, cleantech venture capital and renewable energy project finance.
The conference runs March 23 through 24 at the Times Center in New York. A pre-summit seminar on March 22 offers an introduction to carbon trading and finance

The sign is still standing. It should be broken off, lying in the dirt with tire treads all over it.

That’s OK, but the best is obviously. . .

Was that your own, Anthony?
