I guess that's why the Globe placed this piece on the bottom of page B15, huh?'
Wouldn't want it to be too obvious what a lying, agenda-pushing PoS they are!
"An unusually cold, windy week is blowing into town" by Jack Nicas, Globe Correspondent | October 13, 2009
It has BEEN THAT WAY ALL YEAR!!!!
It may be time to break out the earmuffs, or at least keep your umbrella handy. High winds and cooler temperatures look to make it a cold four-day workweek, according to the National Weather Service, which reported yesterday that temperatures will drop each day, culminating in a possibly rainy, 40-degree Friday. “Temperatures are going to be averaging around 10 degrees below normal for this time of year,’’ said weather service meteorologist Neal Strauss in Taunton.
The mercury won’t reach the normal mid-October high of 60 degrees this week, reaching only 55 degrees today, 50 tomorrow, and the mid- to upper-40s on Thursday and Friday, Strauss said....

"As cold sets in, energy prices rise" by Associated Press | October 13, 2009
NEW YORK - Energy prices rose yesterday as an October chill across much of the United States sent thermometers plummeting, along with the weakening US currency....

Even though there are enormous supplies due to the recession and there is little chance of a shortage in the near term, crude prices have risen 5 percent in three trading days.
Because YOUR DOLLAR is TANKING, American!
So much for the "law" of supply and demand, huh?
It is the weakened US currency that continues to lure global investors who can buy oil for a bargain because it is priced in the dollar. There are billions of dollars entering energy markets despite huge surpluses....
The US dollar index, which tracks the dollar against other major currencies, is down 14 percent since early March, and crude has jumped by about $20 per barrel in the same time.
There are also hopes that energy demand will rise as the economy recovers. Retail gasoline prices have edged up, but are still below $2.50 per gallon. Last year, a gallon of gas cost about $3.25 at this time, according to the auto club AAA, Wright Express and Oil Price Information Service....
So what are you complaining about, 'murka? You are getting a deal at the pump.

And these guys were just saying energy prices won't be rising.
"The unusually harsh chill already shattered records from the Northwest to the Upper Midwest and led to the postponement of Game 3 of the National League Division Series between the Rockies and the Phillies at Coors Field in Denver on Saturday."

"Protest reaches highest level of Parliament" by Associated Press | October 12, 2009
LONDON - Several dozen environmental activists stood atop Britain’s Parliament building yesterday in a protest meant to draw attention to climate change....
PFFFFFFFFFFTTTTT!!!!!
Yeah, NOW it is CLIMATE CHANGE!
There were no immediate arrests....
What? They didn't CRACK SKULLS like in Pittsburgh?
You see, when you are an APPROVED, AGENDA-PUSHING PROTEST the TREATMENT from the authorities is much, much different!
The demonstrators want legislators to sign a 12-point climate manifesto calling for steep cuts in carbon emissions and investment in renewable energy....
Yeah, why not give it a Marxist flavor; after all, his views are at the core of the globalist/Zionist agenda and plan.
I'll tell you, all the lying leaves you frigid when it comes to the morning paper.
"Melting ice caps open up shipping routes; Traffic is up, isolation down in Nome, Alaska" by Kim Murphy, Los Angeles Times | October 13, 2009
NOME, Alaska - The record shrinking of the polar ice cap is turning the forbidding waters at the top of the world into important new shipping routes.
Had it with the LYING yet?
"Some maritime glaciers.... have grown in recent years, including 2007.... They include glaciers at Nigardsbreen, Norway, and Alaska that were helped by temperatures that remain below freezing and ample snow"

I'm so sick of the agenda-pushing lies on this issue in particular!
LYING about the WEATHER of all things!
Four other cruise ships also docked in Nome recently. The Coast Guard deployed its first small Arctic patrol vessels last year. Fleets of scientific research vessels steamed north all summer, while ships surveying the vast oil and gas deposits under the Arctic seabed have talked of using Nome as a base. In fact, this town of 9,300 on the edge of the Bering Strait sees itself as the gateway to a newly accessible maritime frontier.
Nome’s ship traffic is eight times what it was in 1990, and the town recently spent close to $90 million renovating its port to accommodate bigger ships. To the north, Kotzebue would like to build its own deep-water port a few miles outside town. And Barrow, a remote Eskimo whaling village that sits at the very top of the continent, has had cruise ships full of German tourists and Coast Guard patrol boats docking near its rudimentary landing facility the past few summers.
“We can no longer assume,’’ Governor Sean Parnell said at a congressional hearing, “that the Arctic is an impenetrable barrier.’’
****************
More than 6,000 ships now ply the Arctic waters, according to one of the first comprehensive studies of shipping in the region, completed by the international Arctic Council in April. The fabled Northwest Passage - linking the Atlantic and Pacific across northern Canada - saw a period of ice-free navigation in 2007 and 2008.
Why do I just not believe them?
Climate forecasts predict there could be 120 or more largely ice-free transit days each year by the end of the century.
Well, they have been WRONG, WRONG, WRONG, so SHOVE IT!
And last year’s record-breaking ice melt for the first time opened the Northwest Passage and the Northeast Passage, above Russia, for several weeks.
Sigh.
"But it will not be consistently open because of local weather patterns that could still freeze it up for long time periods. This year is shaping up to have the third-lowest amount of Arctic sea ice on record, just behind the worst year set in 2007 and in 2008. But just because 2009 is slightly up from the past two years, it is not an upward trend or a recovery"
Oh, so the ICE COVER is GROWING now!
See Slow Saturday Special: A Cool, Cool Summer for more.
The Arctic Council found that growing worldwide demand for minerals hidden in the Arctic is playing an even bigger role than climate change in the opening of new shipping routes in the far north....
Operators said they have no plans to expand operations or reroute their Europe-bound vessels through the Northwest Passage as part of their current operations. They currently travel south through the Panama Canal.

Btw, about the "climate change" issue:
"Three Decades Of Global Cooling
This was all a scam. The US Government creates one crisis after the other to trick you out of money and obedience.Human Caused Global Warming was to pave the way for a global environmental authority; the next step towards a global government, and along the way, the cap and credit tax system would impoverish the people and make the carbon credit brokerage system (designed by Enron's Ken Lay) filthy rich, again at your expense.
And now that we are three decades into a cooling trend, I want to rub a few noses in this snowball. Look back at everyone who was shouting "Human Caused Global Warming" at you. Al Gore, National Geographic, Discovery Channel, ABCNNBBCBS, History Channel, a whole bunch of scientists willing to sell their souls for an easy endowment, etc. etc. etc. etc. etc.
They all lied to you.
They lied.
They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied. They lied.
Many of them are STILL lying to you, trying to raise on a busted flush, because hundreds of millions of dollars was invested in Al Gore's "Global Warming Futures" and the investors are not ready to give up on selling the scam just yet, not after that much cash has been plowed into the project.
Our leadership are all lawyers and bookkeepers. They do not actually know how to make anything useful, so inevitably their exploitation of the people devolves into one scam after the other; rule by snake oil. Global Warming fear mongering. When-Pigs-Fly flu fear mongering. Osama bin Laden fear mongering. And all the government agencies and corporate media sign on because they smell the gravy train pulling into the station. And with precious few exceptions, they all stood there and sang the hymns to Saint Al of the Gore, and presented you with a bill to save you from ... whatever it was they has tricked you into believing was a direct danger to you.
It's like the old joke of the man standing in the middle of main street USA with his arms outstretched and wearing a strange contraption on his head. Someone asks him, "What are you doing?" and the man replies "I am keeping the dragons away." "But there are no dragons" says the first man. See" says our con artist, "It works! That will be five dollars, please!"
And who was warning you all along that this was a scam?
The blogs.
Once again, the blog-o-sphere had it correct and the corporate media and government were full of USDA choice bovine excrement.
The media doesn't like that. Their job was to sell you the "danger" so that the government could sell you the solution, and it didn't work out.
Which is probably why Salon is whining that people who refuse to believe as they are told and try to find out the truth for themselves simply MUST be mentally ill!
Sore losers.
