| Global Warming Update: Snowfall Records Being Broken in New England
That is said to be a value large enough to erase nearly all the global warming recorded over the past 100 years. It is reportedly the single fastest temperature change ever recorded — up or down." This single event ought to extinguish all talk of "manmade global warming". But it wont. It will be swept under the rug and ignored by the vast majority of the media and the AGW zealots becaus too many people are making way too much money from AGW to let it go away. The day that "politician" became a career choice is the day we started losing the Republic. Let's get it back! Alan Keyes '08. .
Super Bowl's Big Score: 97.5 Million Viewers
Sunday's crowd edged out the previous record of 94.08 million when Dallas sacked Pittsburgh at the '96 Super Bowl. But, despite its made-for-TV back story and the fact that there are 70 million more people in the country than in 1983, the Patriots-Giants game couldn't touch the '83 broadcast of the "M*A*S*H" finale, which remains the most watched broadcast in U.S. television history, with an average of 106 million viewers. For ratings purists, a.k.a. ratings wonks, who believe we should compare household ratings instead of numbers of viewers -- just because the country's population keeps growing -- this year's game is not a record, though it's the highest rated since 1997. Household ratings measure the percentage of the country's homes with TVs tuned in to a show.
Putting a 'For Sale' sign on AECL
The Harper government has been working for months to get Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. in shape for a sale - possibly to foreign owners - and the recent firing of former nuclear regulator Linda Keen is viewed in the industry as a key part of that effort. Suitors have been circling AECL as Ottawa brought in advisers from the National Bank of Canada to review the ownership of the 55-year-old nuclear reactor company. While much of the attention has focused on competitors such as France's Areva SA and U.S.-based General Electric Co., SNC-Lavalin Group Inc. has emerged as a potential domestic bidder that would likely leave a majority or significant minority stake in Canadian government hands. AECL's supporters in the nuclear industry are lobbying hard for a renewed federal commitment to Candu technology.

I just never have caught any real numbers of the little green fish. And I never caught one that would even make a scale bounce. I went bass fishing with Buzz and Kevin Merritt along Alligator Alley today. The alley is the local name for Interstate 75 between Naples and Miami. Countless alligators can be found along the canals on each side of the highway. Sorry to state the obvious there, but you never know. Kevin and his dad, Buzz, could possibly win any father/son one liner competition. They made me want to pee all day with their back-and-forth banter. They also know their bass fishing. Frankly, Buzz carries more plastic baits than Bass Pro Shops. He has every color in the spectrum and then some. Colors like Mud Puppy, Blond Pony, and Carolina Gravy; weird, I know.
