I hope the truth will be known. Nothing has disappeared in the deep of an ocean. All the parts are in the desert, waiting to be picked up by analysts, so I'm surprised we still don't know what happened. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that someone is hiding facts.

All true.  But they are out there picking up those parts.  And I suspect that whoever did it will soon find the wrath of the russian people focused a hundred fold on them.

CO2 is currently reports as 397.64ppm on this page.


CO2 levels today the same as in 1910

"“Svante August Arrhenius (19 February 1859 – 2 October 1927) was a Swedish scientist, originally a physicist, but often referred to as a chemist, and one of the founders of the science of physical chemistry. He received the Nobel Prize for Chemistry in 1903,…”

“He is acknowledged as the father of the CO2 driven global warming hypothesis and supposedly one of the greatest scientists of his time.

In 1910 he is quoted in a newspaper article thus:

“The present proportion of carbon dioxide in the air is about one part in 2,500.”

....
“If it is unchanged according to the father of the CO2 driven global warming hypothesis- 400 ppm in 1910 and 400 ppm now – why do we have any alarm ?

“I guess modern alarmists are saying Arrhenius was totally wrong about the only thing he actually had any data on – the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere....."

Ground based measurements of co2 vary widely, location, season, etc. 
the observations from the volcano in Hawaii by Scripts are free of these variabes and are consistent year to year.
Thus the measurements from 1910 and today are NOT comparable.
Yeah. And now there's the OCO-2 satellite.

Which is a nice dataset.  No question.

So in other words, the usual murderers and killers in the name of Islam did some more murdering and killing in the name of Islam.
And the title of the thread smears Israel and points the accusation at the Jews.
Nothing new here, is there.

I agree that the Jews (and Israel) were unfairly blamed here. But at the same time, we should not forget that the ISIS is getting a lot of help from the Americans, Arabs and Israelis (either directly or indirectly). Israel has attacked the Syrian Army border posts and on multiple occasions have shot down Syrian aircraft, when the regime forces were fighting the Islamists.

I have started a new thread for discussion of the Russian jet and it's unfortunate and innocent passengers.

No difference except the thread title does not blame Israel.

This is true.  The world´s highest fertility rate is in Africa, they have to be screwing all the time there to somehow keep warm.
You know, the more things get blamed on Global Warming, the fewer things that will actually get solved or worked on or improved.

So a lot of people can sit around on their fat asses, do nothing and blame it on something they can't control (except by exhorting people around them to Go Green).

In a way, that creates opportunities for anyone who actually wants to Do Things.

The good thing is that Black Boxes have been recovered in good condition. Thats the only way to find out the real cause. There were so many Plane accidents in this year. Hope next year will be safe..
But the intelligence agencies can conceal the truth in the name of national interest so we will only know what our governments want us to know and believe.
Now they are denying any IS involvement and few days ago they issued this warning.
" The Federal  Aviation Administration
has long warned U.S. airlines against
flying over the Sinai becuase of the
risk of hazards from extremists. The
latest warning March 30 advised
airlines to fly at least 26,000 feet
above the Sinai, to stay out of range
of anti-aircraft weapons, mortars,
rockets and small-arms fire around
airports on the peninsula."

This is true, the recovery of the black box may just be useless. I think these events are set up to incite warfare.

No, the black boxes are very useful.  For example they may be given to different teams from different countries to examine.  Now if one country refuses to let others examine them, then you have a reason to start thinking conspiracy, duplicity, or misrepresenting the facts.

what about the supposed video of the crash?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ilwy96CHGgk

If they really filmed the plane then I think they knew something would happen because people usually don't film planes flying 30 miles above ground just for fun

And technical failure has been ruled out, the communication saying that there was a technical problem was a lie


The video can be discredited.  If someone really wanted to prove they downed the plane, they'd do something like show their ugly faces wrapped in rags, and a current newspaper to prove the time and date.

And it's 30,000 feet = six miles, not thirty miles.

Now go in the corner and cringe with guilt and fear like all the other good faithful Believers.  Remember to restrict showers to 1 minute and only use one lightbulb at a time.

So I went to rent a car today.

And on the website there was this option to add to the rental price -

   Greenhouse Gas Emissions Offset   $ 1.25 / rental

And....I DIDN'T DO IT!

So like, you pay them another $1.25, and the BAD of the car is offset by some GOOD they do.

And that only costs you $1.25!

And I just bought BAD.  Only BAD.

I don´t doubt that Insane McCain and other nutcases sent those terrorist lunatics Stinger missiles, manpads or whatever is used against low flying aircraft. But to shoot down a plane 30,000 feet up you need much more sophisticated and powerful equipment. And personnel trained and qualified to operate it.

Either a very sophisticated ground to air system, radar tracking the target and guiding the rocket, which is a big rocket, or an attack aircraft, or a malicious item placed on board.

There is no reason to suspect anything other that structural failure until evidence shows otherwise.  Could have been a tail falling off, part of the fuselage coming off in an explosive decompression.

If as mentioned the pilot SAID they had mechanical trouble and he was going to land, that rules....

Global Warming Alert! NASA Study: Net Gains For Antarctic Ice Sheets…


According to a new NASA study, ice sheet gains outweigh losses on the Antarctic continent. The findings conflict with those of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which in 2013 suggested gains were not keeping up with losses.

The new study, published in the Journal of Glaciology, doesn’t totally undermine the handful of studies showing significant glacier, ice sheet and sea ice shrinkage. Instead, if offers evidence of previously unaccounted gains.

The new tallies reveal an annual net gain of 112 billion tons between 1992 and 2001. Annual gains of 82 billion tons were observed between 2003 and 2008.[…]

The gains came in the form of ice thickening — thickening researchers have previously dismissed as snow accumulations. But Zwally’s study looked at meteorological records to show that snow accumulations have actually dropped off over the last two decades. He and his colleagues also looked at historical meteorological data gleaned from ice cores, and found that snowfall from 10,000 years ago has been slowly compacted and turned into ice over the last several millennia.

The new findings may force scientists to rethink models that attempt to account for sea level rise.


http://www.upi.com/Science_News/2015/10/31/NASA-study-Net-gains-for-Antarctic-ice-sheets/9711446321864/



It's worth noting that even though this is true, basic chaotic theory reigns, and the West Antarctica peninsula can still break off and parts float off, causing significant sea level rise.  This is because it sticks out pretty far toward the equator, compared to the rest of the continent.

So don't worry, there are still fearful horrible things that can be blamed on man that will probably happen anyway.

Yeah, yeah they´ve been talking about this heat stress for a long time. Last year set a record in grain crop yield and this year looks set for another. Wheat price is at a 20-year low.....

It´s always impending doom and catastrophe with this cult. And then they decry and minimize others as conspiracy theorists. I think they are projecting their own scammy mentality on others.

Here's an example.
http://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2015/10/29/world/europe/29reuters-climatechange-summit-russia-media.html?_r=0

Putin's scepticism dates from the early 2000s, when his staff "did very, very extensive work trying to understand all sides of the climate debate", said Andrey Illarionov, Putin's senior economic adviser at the time and now a senior fellow at the Cato Institute in Washington.

"We found that, while climate change does exist, it is cyclical, and the anthropogenic role is very limited," he said. "It became clear that the climate is a complicated system and that, so far, the evidence presented for the need to 'fight' global warming was rather unfounded."

That opinion endures. During a trip to the Arctic in 2010, Putin acknowledged that "the climate is changing", but restated his doubt that human activity was the cause.

His trip was to inspect the retreat of the polar ice cap, something that promises to make the Arctic ocean and northern Siberia more accessible to exploration and production of the oil that Russia, the world's leading producer, depends on for export earnings.

Marianna Poberezhskaya, author of the academic work "Communicating Climate Change in Russia", characterized media coverage in Russia as "climate silence", broken only by the airing of official doubts about any human impact on global temperatures.

Rising temperature AND HUMIDITY?

Damn, these guys are stupid.  (If anyone wants or needs the scientific explanation I'll be happy to provide it.  No clue if it is obvious or not.)

Anyway, around here we've got a long tradition for the mid-day break when it's too hot to work.

It's called "Siesta."
