Dentists for global cooling
The newspaper extract reads:
The planet’s rapid warming has pushed temperatures to their hottest level in nearly 12,000 years and within a hair’s breadth of a million years, a study by the US space agency showed yesterday.
Global warming, which has added 0.2C a decade over the past 30 years, has caused temperatures to reach and now pass through the warmest levels in the current interglacial period, which has lasted almost 12,000 years, according to the study led by James Hansen, a leading climatologist at NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies.

Sarah Mutch’s Recession
It’s Maxim’s Real Swimsuit issue and model Sarah Mutch considers matters financial:
“I have really bad issues with clothes shopping. I like Chanel, Fendi, and Hermes, but Roberto Cavalli is my weakness.
I’m in denial about the economy right now. Clients aren’t paying as much, and you even notice the catering on set is different. It’s not quite McDonald’s, but it’s changed.”
Maybe they pay her by the square inch?

The Blagojevich laugh in

Ben Smith looks at the best show in town: Blago
This blog can’t really capture the long-form style of Blagojevich’s swan song, but he’s going down swinging, with a call to fire Rahm Emanuel for being as guilty as he — according to a theory under which he is being impeached for fighting for citizens right to cheap prescription drugs.
Blago said lawmakers should “demand that President Obama fire Rahm Emanuel” because he favored the program. Blagojevich suggested Senators McCain and Ted Kennedy be “indicted as co-conspirators.”
“I followed every law and never, ever intended to violate any law,” Blagojevich said. “I’m here to give every possible explanation to every one of these allegations. Who knows, maybe you’ll reconsider and allow me to call those witnesses.”

Gore is the Prophet of his age
Washington Post’s Dana Milbank see Al Gore:
The lawmakers gazed in awe at the figure before them. The Goracle had seen the future, and he had come to tell them about it.
What the Goracle saw in the future was not good: temperature changes that “would bring a screeching halt to human civilization and threaten the fabric of life everywhere on the Earth—and this is within this century, if we don’t change”…
Once Al Gore was a mere vice president, but now he is a Nobel laureate and climate-change prophet. He repeats phrases such as “unified national smart grid” the way he once did “no controlling legal authority”—and the ridicule has been replaced by worship, even by his political foes…
The Goracle’s powers seem to come from his ability to scare the bejesus out of people.
Gore is the Prophet Of His Age.

Ahmadinejad and Obama:
It isn’t enough that Obama has already signaled in numerous ways his readiness to embark on a path of appeasement. Oh, no. Ahmadinejad wants Obama to signal to the world Iran’s hegemony. And this after Iran has been at war with the United States for decades, beginning with the hostage crisis.
The Sun and the Jew hit list and Glen Jenvey
Get the Jews:
The Media Guardian today reports that the (toothless) Press Complaints Commission is now investigating the Sun’s worthless front page story that Muslims were drawing up a ‘hit-list’ of prominent Jews. Both Tim Ireland at Bloggerheads and the people at Ummah.com say the evidence points to the “anti-terror expert” Glen Jenvey himself pretending to be a nutjob.
