By Emily Murgatroyd • Monday, December 7, 2009 - 11:36
Last week, in response to the hacked emails at East Anglia, Elizabeth May took the time to read every single email.
Providing context and analysis, her report goes a long way, giving us more than just the cherry picked nuggets that skeptics have taken out of context and doggedly been holding on to.
Here, she follows up with a response to the comments on her original posting…
DeSmogBlog comments require response:
I am a neophyte in the blogosphere. The first time something I have written for the Green Party site has been widely picked up was my article on the East Anglia scientists and the stolen emails. James Hoggan, Kevin Grandia, and Richard Littlemore do a powerful lot of good on "DeSmogBlog" and through James' and Richard's new book Climate Cover-Up.
Posting my CRU email blog on the DeSmogBlog site got it some attention, including in the New York Times. Reading some of the posted comments led me to want to rebut and share that rebuttal with Greens. You may need these points to do your own sand-bagging against the rising tide of skeptic/contrarian propaganda. Here is a sample of the nonsense with my response…
Ms May, with all due respect this is pure nonsence.(sic)
If you read the entire set how come you missed the emails of threats to those at ClimateAudit? How come you missed the one where they cannot account for the current cooling? Or how about the MANY where they conspire to black ball journals that keep publishing skeptical papers, get certain editors removed, and changing the peer reviewed process?
Or how to change the data mixing unrelated data, that hides the decline the treering data showed after 1961? How come you did not comment on these? JR Wakefield
Thanks to JR Wakefield, (although the message "with all due respect" would ring more sincerely if your headline had not been, "Lizzy, you missed the juicy stuff.")
My point is there is no "juicy stuff." There are intemperate messages from people writing in private about the levels of frustration created by years of harassment. None of us like to be besieged. Few of us have had to endure the levels of targeted harassment of the scientists in the CRU group at East Anglia.
There is one message where a colleague expresses concern that the models do not seem to account for the where the heat forcing of the trapped solar energy is going.
The discussion is started when Dr. Stephen Schneider, one of the world's leading climate scientists, expresses concern that the BBC is mis-leading the public on current science:
Any of you want to explain decadal natural variability and signal to noise and
sampling errors to this new "IPCC Lead Author" from the BBC? As we enter an El Nino
year and as soon, as the sunspots get over their temporary–presumed–vacation worth a
few tenths of a Watt per meter squared reduced forcing, there will likely be another
dramatic upward spike like 1992-2000. I heard someone–Mike Schlesinger maybe??–was
willing to bet a lot of money on it happening in next 5 years?? Meanwhile the past 10
years of global mean temperature trend stasis still saw what, 9 of the warmest in
reconstructed 1000 year record and Greenland and the sea ice of the North in big
retreat?? Some of you observational folks probably do need to straighten this out as my
student suggests below.
Translation: BBC has seized on one year "cooling" and ignores the issue of time lags in the global climate system. As I tried to point out in the Munk Debates, climate modelling is not about a one year at a time climb in temperatures. It is significant at the level of decades.
You have to grasp time lags. The GHG we release today will have an impact on the climate for the next 100 years. The system is nearly infinitely large and complex, with land heating faster than oceans. As well, there can be confounding factors – sunspots on 11 year cycles or El Nino (referred to in the East Anglia emails as "ENSO" El Nino Southern Oscillations) that heat things up, volcanoes (like Mount Pinatubo or sulphate and particulates from burning coal that ironically) can act to mask the warming trend. These impacts are temporary and the climate models seek to screen them and see what anthropogenic forcing is doing to the climate. All the models for decades have shown that it is impossible to produce the warming trends the planet has seen when you exclude anthropogenic forcing.
Dr. Kevin Trenberth from the Boulder, Colorado National Centre for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) replied to Schneider. He has been for some time interested in better methods to account for the physics of the issues: where does the heat go when trapped at the earth's surface by warming gases.
His work is described on the NARC website as "being used to validate coupled atmosphere-ocean climate models and understanding heat flows that are so important in climate change. He has continued to improve estimates of the global hydrological cycle. A particular focus is on changes in precipitation type, frequency, intensity and amount, and thus on how droughts and floods, and climate extremes change."
In other words, in the following email, he is promoting is own area of research, not attacking the fundamentals of climate science.
The oft-quoted email sentence from his message of October 13, 2009 said:
"The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment and it is a travesty that we can't. The CERES data published in the August BAMS 09 supplement on 2008 shows there should be even more warming: but the data are surely wrong. Our observing system is inadequate."
A discussion ensues.
Dr. Michael Mann, Director of the Earth Sciences Centre at Pennsylvania State, replied the next day,
Kevin, that's an interesting point. As the plot from Gavin I sent shows, we can easily
account for the observed surface cooling in terms of the natural variability seen in
the CMIP3 ensemble (i.e. the observed cold dip falls well within it). So in that sense,
we can "explain" it. But this raises the interesting question, is there something going
on here w/ the energy & radiation budget which is inconsistent with the modes of
internal variability that leads to similar temporary cooling periods within the models.
I'm not sure that this has been addressed–has it?
Dr. Tom Wigley, a senior scientist in the Climate and Global Dynamics Division, also at NCAR, and a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) wrote:
Dear all,
At the risk of overload, here are some notes of mine on the recent lack of warming. I look at this in two ways. The first is to look at the difference between the observed and expected anthropogenic trend relative to the pdf for unforced variability. The second is to remove ENSO, volcanoes and TSI variations from the observed data.
Both methods show that what we are seeing is not unusual. The second method leaves a significant warming over the past decade.
These sums complement Kevin's energy work.
Kevin says … "The fact is that we can't account for the lack of warming at the moment
and it is a travesty that we can't".
I do not agree with this.
(Emphasis added)
Other scientists point out that we are still not clear on how many sulfates are being emitted, particularly in the rapidly industrializing developing world. It is clear that sulfates (particulates) provide a cooling effect, even while carbon dioxide levels keep growing. In another post, the scientists discuss why NASA results show higher global temperature than the Hadley results from the UK. One conclusion is that the Hadley data does not have as many Arctic data points. Warming in the Arctic is 2-3 times faster than the global average.
By the next day, October 14, Trenberth writes that he is not challenging anyone, just making a point about the fact his area of research needs more attention.
In an open letter defending the East Anglia scientists (December 3, 2009), he wrote:
I am proud of what Phil and I did for Chapter 3 in AR4, and it is disappointing that the IPCC has not been more forthright in standing up for its procedures.
Dr. Trenberth's private email is being distorted and touted globally as some sort of "smoking gun", or to hear the industry-funded Pat Michaels "a mushroom cloud."
There is no "smoking gun" here. It reads, as do all the email threads on closer examination, as scientists exchanging candid, off-hand, messages. They know each other well and often speak in short-hand. Clearly Dr. Trenberth is NOT arguing that the models have been cooked up to avoid a climate cooling trend. Nor is he denying that there is an urgent need to reduce GHG. He wants to see a clearer understanding of the energy dynamics on the planet.
Sadly, I see it has taken three pages of text to counter the one sentence "How come you missed the one where they cannot account for the current cooling?"
For JR's other points, forgive me for just replying without copying and pasting in all the emails. There was no effort to "blackball journals." There WAS a sad realization that one journal, in particular, had ceased to exercise the appropriate level of scientific rigour. It was publishing papers that could not have passed peer review anywhere else. The CRU emails did no object to the publication of the paper because the scientists disliked the authors or their conclusions, but because obvious and large mistakes had been made. "Shoddy work" was an apt description.
The journal, Energy and Environment, was discussed on a number of emails, especially after it published a terrible paper by Baliunas and Soon. The group of scientists, whose emails make up most of what was stolen, decided to put a serious peer-reviewed effort into debunking that article. The Energy and Environment Journal is not a top journal. It is not included in Journal Citation Reports which covers the top 6,000 journals. The name of the editor rang a bell. Sonja Boehmer-Christiansen, who is mentioned by the scientists concerned about the sloppiness of the work, was the source of a key footnote in Lomborg's Skeptical Environmentalist. Lomborg claimed that negotiations to arrest climate change were driven "not, as you may have thought, [by] the prospect of possibleglobal warming" but by windmill manufacturers, climate researchers and other "institutionalized interests." His source? Solely her name. No published article. Nothing. Just Sonja Boehmer-Christiansen.
The data problems plague people in many areas of science. Techy issues with computers and managing different platforms etc could drive a sane man mad. If this were a serious problem at East Anglia, clearly other scientists would not have the same results using their own systems and intellectual property to put the raw data into computer friendly formats.
The key point here is that the raw data (at least 95% of it) is available in the public domain, and has been for years. Independent scientists all around the world, sliced and diced in a wide variety of ways, keep pointing out that the planet has never had as much carbon dioxide in one million years, nor has it been this warm in the last 1,000 years.
Turning to another critic of my post:
In this instance it appears that this case will certainly be changing from Hackergate back to Climategate.
As it turns out, the source of the information in the e-mails and the data files at CRU is an employee at CRU Hadley. This individual is now in contact with Steve McIntyre over at ClimateAudit. The mole has even shared a highly sensitive data file that McIntyre requested under British FOIA laws but was denied. The data file contains all of the station data from around the world (unaltered) that McIntyre tried to get for quite some time.
To show how quickly this issue is disintegrating in the UK, the Met (the UK's equivalent to the U.S. National Weather Service) is opening up all of their data and investigating the last 160 years of world temps de novo. This will take until sometime in 2012. That's quite a while. In the mean time I am watching the sea ice data in the Arctic blow right past the last few years. The sea ice returneth despite what you may have seen or heard on TV or radio.
"The ice returneth?" That's quite the claim. Quiksat imagery has shown a continuing of the dramatic trend towards thinning ice. Much of the multi year ice is now gone in the Arctic. Areal extent was a little larger than 2007 in both 2008 and 2009. But,
volume was way down and both 2008 and 2009. There was some hope, blown up by the ironically named "Friends of Science," that a small recovery in annual ice would support some polar bears, but Dr. David Barber of University of Manitoba, made a voyage to check and found the whole area was like "swiss cheese," or "rotten."
The millions of square kilometres of disappearing Arctic ice are visible through satellite data. Visible in photographs from outer space. So would you have us believe that those wily scientists at East Anglia has intercepted satellite images and doctored with the photos? Or maybe there are no satellites! Maybe they just use a sound studio outside Norwich and have a planet earth look-alike that they can film as though they were in space!
As for the idea that an "insider" stole the emails, I suppose anything is possible. But the credibility of this claim is more than a bit undermined by alleging the "mole" to be "an employee at CRU Hadley." Fascinating that. CRU is the Climate Research Unit at East Anglia located in Norwich. No connection whatsoever to the Hadley Centre of the British Government in Exeter. (Established by the wild-eyed radical, Margaret Thatcher.)
None of this means that we should be dismayed there is an investigation underway. Failing to hold a full investigation will only allow the climate denier crowd and the Fossil Fuel Lobby to attack the science and use a few intemperate, overly human outbursts by good and honest men, to hurt the legitimacy of their work. But we should be prepared.
There will be more emails stolen. More scientists attacked. We cannot afford to sit back and wait for the investigation of the CRU emails to be completed. Nor should we think for one moment that a full investigation of the CRU that exonerates the scientists will end the matter. The climate denial-contrarian effort is well-funded and fuelled with rampant paranoia, fears of global government (how do we get them interested in the WTO instead?), conspiracy theories and a deeply held commitment to NOT accept the clear science.
There is no way to reach those people, but there are some legitimately confused members of the public. They want someone to be clear about what it going on. That is our job as Greens.
Defend scientists who have done nothing wrong. Work for an effective treaty at Copenhagen. Ensure that we avoid runaway global warming by demanding cuts sufficient to, at least, stop the rise in global GHG by 2015-2016.
We have a lot of work to do. Sadly, now, some of our time must be spent in rear-guard actions to protect the truth. .

The Real Problem
… is nothing to do with blogospheric sniping at climate science. (which is just a bunch of guys talking in between actual work)
The problem you have is that despite the fact that you have assembled all this power at Copenhagen, nothing will be accomplished because every single politician there runs on narrow national,local and personal self interest. Everything else is just words.
It will all add up to less than nothing when we look back at it. But on the plus side the limo drivers, the hundreds of private jet pilots and the hotels of Copenhagen and their top end caterers will make a very pretty penny. Good for them.
I am so impressed that Elizabeth May first took the time to actually read all the emails, and equally that she has taken even more time to respond so politely and thoroughly to the contrarians. I truly do hope that each and every one of the deniers will have to look into the eyes of their children and grand children and be held to account. They have a great deal to answer for. And no, I am not a member of the Green Party, or of any other.

Yes I do, and I do not want them to be burdoned with having their incomes raped by some scheme that is nothing more than a wealth redistribution agenda which will favor mulitnational corporations and make us poorer.
Provide evidence that a warmer climate it a bad climate, since every single warm period in all of geological history, was good to the biota and recently good for humanity (RWP MWP).

The evidence is out there in
The evidence is out there in peer-reviewed journals. Please refer to those peer-reviewed journals papers which support your position.
Now enters the argument from JR that's there's a huge world-wide conspiracy keeping the evidence from reaching quality peer-review journals. He cites partial segments of emails featuring scientists outset about lousy research nevertheless being published. Note that they don't fret about "the truth getting out." They point out how poor the work is by empirically deconstructing it. Lot of effort for a conspiracy supposedly based on poor science.
Image what would happen if scientist reacted to poor published research by shying away from those journals that published the crap? My God, competition would actually lead to journals having very strict acceptance guidelines. The by-product of that would be that only the best research makes it in the best journals.
What a sorry blow for science that would be! <– That's sarcasm, of course. Wouldn't want my comments misconstrued. There seems to be a lot of that going around these days.
I, for one, am glad that scientist stand up and try to do something about junk science.
JR, as you claim to be technically minded, here's a takedown by Deltoid you should read: http://scienceblogs.com/deltoid/2009/12/quote_mining_code.php
I had no trouble with it. I write fudge code every day. Need it to proof algorithms. Only the ignorant can make honestly something out of such things.
But for someone claiming 30 years of experience, well, that doesn't bode well for you, does it?
JR said: "I do not want them to be burdoned with having their incomes raped by some scheme that is nothing more than a wealth redistribution
You are making a political interpretation, I see. I make policy choices based on facts, not my personal politics.
Indeed, I left conservatism several years and became a libertarian green (independent, not in any party) because the facts behind pollution and climate change made it clear that neoliberalism was a growing failure. You'd be surprised about how many former Reformers saw the 'green' and crossed over.
Libertarians largely accepted the need for police forces to aid in social cohesion, as opposed to sticking to 'hue and cry', because they came to recognize that private conflicts between individuals often did not resolve in an equitable matter, and would affect persons not involved in the conflict.
Well, likewise, private commerce is unfortunately yielding tremendous external effects, which are affecting people not involved or benefiting from those transactions.
Those serious externalities are pollution, war and global warming.
As for redistributing wealth, are you referring to the recent spat of private corporations receiving massive influxes of public money? Socialize losses, privatize profits. And to think that Bush pushed hard for it.
JR: "wealth redistribution agenda which will favor mulitnational corporations and make us poorer."
Then why are the multinationals – except for the insurance companies and banks – funding the propaganda mills like the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Fraser Institute, the Hudson Institute, and so on, plus people like Marc Morano and Steve Millroy, to produce reams of anti-global-warming propaganda?
JR Wakefield replied on Permalink
lousy research nevertheless being published
It's only lousy in their OPINION. And science is not done by OPINION. It is done with evidence. Regardless this tactic to prevent other scientists from publishing is not tollerated in other sciences. These guys did not need to resort to conspiricy to stop a paper. That's not ethical, and many other scientists agree with that.
You rebut a paper by writing a paper presenting evidence against the former paper. You absolutely DO NOT attempt to circumvent the scientific process by pressuring journals. That's highly unethical and damaging to science.
If this was happening to your people you would be saying EXACTLY the same thinh I am.
"You are making a political interpretation, I see. I make policy choices based on facts, not my personal politics. "
Forcing the west to pay for past "sins" and giving billions to developing countries is political. You people did that not me.
"Then why are the multinationals – except for the insurance companies and banks – funding the propaganda mills like the Competitive Enterprise Institute, the Fraser Institute, the Hudson Institute, and so on, plus people like Marc Morano and Steve Millroy, to produce reams of anti-global-warming propaganda?"
LOL, hardley multinationals. I was think more of companies like GE, A; Gore's, etc. The ones who will make billions off AGW at yours as well as my expence. What is propaganda to you is feedom of information to me. Challenging is a requirement in a democratic society, or do you think challenging should not be allowed?

Best laugh I've had all day … I'm willing to bet a 'two-nie' that the day the F-Institute, the CEI, the H-Institute, the Friends of Science, or any other Denier Society organization or hack funded by them publishes something remotely credible is the day a second moon will arise in the afternoon sky!

The journal was not pressured
At least one paper (http://www.sciencemag.org/cgi/content/abstract/311/5762/841) was published on it by at least one of the scientists (Briffa – this was Briffa's area), so you are wrong in your entire analysis claiing no papers were done. Actually, I found quite a few citations between Soon + Baliunas and Briffa, and Briffa cites van Storch, the Chief Editor of the journal I see too.
From the Chief editor of Climate Reserach himself, van Storch:
"The CR Problem
After a conflict with the publisher Otto Kinne of Inter-Research I stepped down on 28. July 2003 as Editor-in-Chief of Climate Research; the reason was that I as newly appointed Editor-in-Chief wanted to make public that the publication of the Soon & Baliunas article was an error, and that the review process at Climate Research would be changed in order to avoid similar failures. The review process had utterly failed; important questions have not been asked, as was documented by a comment in EOS by Mann and several coauthors. (The problem is not whether the Medieval Warm Period was warmer than the 20th century, or if Mann's hockey stick is realistic; the problem is that the methodological basis for such a conclusion was simply not given.) It was not the first time that the process had failed, but it was the most severe case. However, my authority as Editor-in-Chief did obviously not cover the publication of an editorial spelling out the problem. The publisher declined the publication, and I cancelled my task as Editor-in-Chief immediately on 28 July 2003.
I withdrew also als editor because I learned during the conflict that CR editors used different scales for judging the validity of an article. Some editors considered the problem of the Soon & Baliunas paper as merely a problem of "opinion", while it was really a problem of severe methodological flaws. Thus, I decided that I had to disconnect from that journal, which I had served proudly for about 10 years.
Today I am not longer related to the journal Climate Research in any way. Only the review process of those manuscripts, for which I initiated the review process, will be completed by me. After that I will be completely detached.
Three more editors withdrew namely Clare Goodess, Mitsuru Ando and Shardul Argawala. In mid September 2003 Andrew Comrie resigned as well."
Not a ringing endorsement of your position, is it?
The publisher unethically refused to deal with the defamation caused by the many "mistatements" concerning the research of many others in the Soon-Baliunas paper. You just don't do that. As with any publication, when such tremendous errors are made, and when the errors involve misstating other's research, the publisher is obligated to allow response. That's not just good ethics, it's reflected in the many varied civil laws concerning defamation in the Western world.
A reaction to boycott a journal guilty of such breaches is most appropriate.
This is all very old news. I'm surprised you didn't know it.
Anyway, you're clearly boxed into a corner here, JR.

I didn't think you would, glad you did. This time I'll try not to have any typos. I'll keep this short and to the point:
"blackball journals."
From: Tom Wigley (1051190249.txt)
"Mike's idea to get editorial board members to resign will probably not
work – must get rid of von Storch too, otherwise holes will eventually
fill up with people like Legates, Balling, Lindzen, Michaels, Singer,
etc. I have heard that the publishers are not happy with von Storch, so
the above approach might remove that hurdle too."
"I will be emailing the journal to tell them I'm having nothing more to do with it until they rid themselves of this troublesome editor. A CRU person is on the editorial board, but papers get dealt with by the editor assigned by Hans von Storch.
Are just two. Others they conspire to not send papers to or cite references from, two journals. That's blackballing.
Of course you omitted any comment on the source code which has all kinds of commented parts of the code including one where a "fudge factor" was introduced to alter the data after 1961. There are many places where the programmer complained the data was "garbage". And 95% is not available on line, only the "value added" data is. CRU admitted they deleted and threw out all the original data. See Wattsupwiththat for details on the revelations in the source code. Also a new one on the evidence this was an inside job.
As for:
"WAS a sad realization that one journal, in particular, had ceased to exercise the appropriate level of scientific rigour. It was publishing papers that could not have passed peer review anywhere else. The CRU emails did no object to the publication of the paper because the scientists disliked the authors or their conclusions, but because obvious and large mistakes had been made. "Shoddy work" was an apt description. "
Is that OPINION scientifically based or based on emotion to keep the faith alive? When I read the papers that these guys talk about I see nothing scientifically wrong with their points (and yes I'm quite capable of understanding what's going on in these papers). Instead what I see is an attempt by the "hockey stick" team to do what ever it takes to maintain the faith. In any other science, skeptism is REQUIRED, yet in climate science it is not. Don't tell me it is, because it is not. Any time anyone questions AGW, the first words out of the mouths of the alarmists, including you, is these people are funded by big oil (yet have no evidence to back up the claim).
There are a large number of scientists out there who DO NOT accept AGW on scientific grounds and have to resort to journals that will publish their papers, such as Energy & Environment. Sluffing them out of hand is not scientific at all.
As for funding, another red herring. In the past 20 years $80 BILLION has been spent on AGW by governments alone. So if you want to talk money you will lose that one very fast. EVERYONE has a vested interest, especially Desmogblog and the Green Party. You expect AGW will be exonerated, what if it is found to have been a fraud all along? Your funding dries up. Big incentive to keep the faith alive.
Me? I do it only for the science. I challenge pseudoscience at every opportunity, have done for 30 years. I don't get a penny to do this from anyone.
Lastly, what is needed is to have a Royal Commission to investigate the true science behind AGW. Not the kangaroo court like hearings the Liberals had where only the alarmists were allowed to testify. Since the mitigation efforts of AGW affect everyone, then ALL stakeholders must be allowed to have their evidence made public and evaluated fairly. If you feel strongly that your side is right, you should welcome this not hinder it. Opposing skeptics from being included is not what we do in a democracy.
BTW, I rejected AGW the day it was proclaimed the science was settled no more debate was needed. In science NOTHING is beyond debate – ever. People only say that when they have something to hide.
I forget to add. I maintain that there is nothing happening in the climate or weather today that is beyond normal variation of 1000, 10,000 and 100,000 year cycles – not one item.

Well, sorry, JRWakefield, but in spite of your alleged thirty year effort in demasking pseudo science I have never encountered your name before except on this blog. Why should we accept your authority in these matters? The fact that you keep referring to a certain denialist blog as, somehow, a reliable source makes me inclined to look at your contributions with the scepsis that you so heartily recommend for climate science in general.
Yes the 'hockey stick team' did "what ever it takes to maintain the faith" viz. the patient collecting of data, looking for the connections between these on the basis of the general principles of physics and chemistry and building ever more refined models. Baliunas had no track record in such matters whatsoever. She is an astrophysicist heavily involved with right wing think tanks.
And about that 'hockey stick team' (what wit) Kinne, the publisher of the offending journal, Climate Research, apparently belonged to that as well. Olivia Kinski quotes him as follows in her article:"Sally Baliunas, the Global Warming Debate and Think Tank Scholarship":
"The growing influence of science on human societies …has recently
caused forces to enter the scene that are not part of the scientific process in its original sense; forces that are primarily fuelled not by scientific fact or argument but by political or economical interests. These forces must not be allowed to compromise or distort established and proven methods of "truth finding."21
"The second article published in Climate Research by Baliunas", says Koski, "sparked even more controversy than the first.".The publisher comments that it
"stirred storms in science, politics and the media," and led to the resignations of three of the journal's editors.22 He also notes that "The storms have underlined problems in the
peer review process." He indicates that this process failed in regard to the publication of Baliunas's article:
…there was insufficient attention to the methodological basis of statements that touch hotly debated controversies and involve pronounced political and economic interests. CR should have been more careful and insisted on solid evidence and cautious formulations before publications."23
Baliunas's articles were controversial because they challenged conventional scientific understanding of global warming without adequate evidence. As Inter-Research's own director admits, the peer review process failed in allowing Baliunas's article to be
published without revision."
But Wakefield after your thirty years of knowing better you will, of course, know better on this occasion as well.

That works on ALL SIDES of this debate. Not just right wing, center or left wing. EVERYONE has a stake in this. The proAGW orgainizations are connected to other radical organizations that will make billions off this at the expence of the average person. (Enron was first involved in funding the push for AGW, and those execs who survived that now work for corporations owned by Gore. GE is spending millions on AGW as they expect to make BILLIONS bilking their customers. You people dont even realize you will be lining the pockets of the very corporations, global corporations, you despise!) The EU is now a perfect example of this. Utility companies are raking in huge profits, middle men getting hugly rich off carbon trading and coruption in the system is rampant.
"But Wakefield after your thirty years of knowing better you will, of course, know better on this occasion as well."
Have you even read her paper? Seemed to be perfectly sensible to me. The fact of the matter is climatology is not a core science, it's an interdisciplinary science. It's entirely based on other disciplines and there for those other science, including astrophysics. (especially since charged particles from space can affect the climate).
The science is no where near settled. We need an independant inquiry to go through all the evidence and make a decission before we spend billions and push people into the poor house (like what is going on in the EU). Are you afraid of such an inquiry?

No they aren't.
I suspect that you have your information on this point from you favorite source "Whatsupwithat" which might have it in turn from that ready venue for denialists The Wallstreet Journal.
The RealClimate team, to which Mann and Schmidt belong, have come up with an explicit disclaimer on this point:
"Readers of the Feb. 14th, 2005 Wall Street Journal may have gotten the impression that RealClimate is in some way affiliated with an environmental organisation. We wish to stress that although our domain is being hosted by Environmental Media Services, and our initial press release was organised for us by Fenton Communications, neither organization was in any way involved in the initial planning for RealClimate, and have never had any editorial or other control over content. Neither Fenton nor EMS has ever paid any contributor to RealClimate.org any money for any purpose at any time. Neither do they pay us expenses, buy our lunch or contract us to do research. All of these facts have always been made clear to everyone who asked (see for instance: http://www.sciencemag.org/content/vol306/issue5705/netwatch.shtml)."
If you have a reliable source that says otherwise you should come up with it.
Baliunas, by contrast, seems to me to be heavily influenced in her views by industrial lobby groups. What to make, for instance, of her 1995 claim in a congressional hearing that CFC-gases were not damaging to the ozone layer. I hope she felt a bit silly when the three originators of the hypothesis that they were received not long after the Nobel Prize.
You wrote:
"Have you even read her paper? Seemed to be perfectly sensible to me."
Well it did not seem so to thirteen of the authors she had referred to and who protested against her misinterpretations. Neither did it to the editor-in-chief to be, Hans Von Storch, who resigned over the issue as did other members of the editorial board.
Sorry, but for the time being I give somewhat more weight to their opinion than to yours. I hope you don't claim authority on this topic on the basis of two twenty year old articles in obscure journals on some geological issues. You seem to be arguing that since climate science is to a large extent based on other disciplines a geologist is an automatic expert in this field as well. Nonsense. Geologists with megalomanic notions of this sort have come to grief. The internet list with Plimer's howlers is still expanding I believe.
I note that you haven't reacted to the acknowledgment by the publisher of the offending journal that the peer review process had been quite deficient in this case.

If you are guilible enough to take that "disclaimer" then I have some accurate data I can sell you from the CRU.
You people go after our sites as being funded by big oil, such as co2science and worldclimatereport, even though they also have a disclaimer of such. Double standard, eh?
The question is, why is EMS even hosting their server and holds the domain name? Whats up with that? RealClimate can't host it themselves and own the domain themselves?
"Neither did it to the editor-in-chief to be, Hans Von Storch, who resigned over the issue as did other members of the editorial board."
The emails clearly show that the hockey stick team got Von Storch out, nothing to do with the paper.
JR Wakefield, Gavin Schmidt
JR Wakefield, Gavin Schmidt of RealClimate agrees with you on one point: the science is not settled.
"…In the climate field, there are a number of issues which are no longer subject to fundamental debate in the community. The existence of the greenhouse effect, the increase in CO2 (and other GHGs) over the last hundred years and its human cause, and the fact the planet warmed significantly over the 20th Century are not much in doubt. IPCC described these factors as 'virtually certain' or 'unequivocal'. The attribution of the warming over the last 50 years to human activity is also pretty well established – that is 'highly likely' and the anticipation that further warming will continue as CO2 levels continue to rise is a well supported conclusion. To the extent that anyone has said that the scientific debate is over, this is what they are referring to. In answer to colloquial questions like "Is anthropogenic warming real?", the answer is yes with high confidence.
But no scientists would be scientists if they thought there was nothing left to find out…"
"The science is settled" is a phrase I have used in my ignorance once or twice in blog comments, but I won't do that again.
Mark Francis replied on Permalink
JR, please stop the defamation
"The emails clearly show that the hockey stick team got Von Storch out, nothing to do with the paper."
That's false and defamatory.
From Von Storch himself:
"After a conflict with the publisher Otto Kinne of Inter-Research I stepped down on 28. July 2003 as Editor-in-Chief of Climate Research; the reason was that I as newly appointed Editor-in-Chief wanted to make public that the publication of the Soon & Baliunas article was an error, and that the review process at Climate Research would be changed in order to avoid similar failures. The review process had utterly failed; important questions have not been asked, as was documented by a comment in EOS by Mann and several coauthors. (The problem is not whether the Medieval Warm Period was warmer than the 20th century, or if Mann's hockey stick is realistic; the problem is that the methodological basis for such a conclusion was simply not given.) It was not the first time that the process had failed, but it was the most severe case. However, my authority as Editor-in-Chief did obviously not cover the publication of an editorial spelling out the problem. The publisher declined the publication, and I cancelled my task as Editor-in-Chief immediately on 28 July 2003."

No leaker has come forward. There is no evidence that anyone leaked the emails. JRW's link made mistakes, as shown in the comments there.
There are no smoking guns in the emails, despite the desperate efforts made to spin the word "trick", "hide the decline" etc. Therefore no whistleblower would have a motive to leak the emails, because there is nothing honestly damaging in them. It's more likely a thief who picked through them for whatever could be spun, without finding much.
The emails were kept for a few weeks and publicized at the most effective time to undermine the Copenhagen meeting. The thief attempted to put the emails on RealClimate. Thieves broke into Andrew Weaver's office at U Vic and stole a computer and messed up his papers. Thieves attempted to get at Environment Canada's computer at U Vic.
The denialist blogosphere has gone absolutely hysterical over the emails; which was predictable to anyone who has observed it in action. It is so hysterical that denialists are sending death threats to scientists.
And finally: Who benefits from the email leak? The same people who benefit from encouraging denialism.

Elizabeth is a noted author on GW, too
Thank you Elizabeth, for your ongoing efforts to support accuracy and truth in reporting, and for your insights into AGW.
To those who aren't aware, Elizabeth is also author of a significant (and recent) book on Global Warming: 'Global Warming for Dummies' (2208). I bought it last year when first published, it's an excellent and informative primer and I say enthusiastically that many of the posters here would do well to invest their money and time in reading it.

Global Warming: 'Global Warming for Dummies' (2208)
Maybe by 2208 Global warming may actually be an issue. Right now it is the epitomy of a mountain out of a molehill. The green party would be wise to concentrate on real issues that affect people rather than trying to promote treaties that protect wealthy speculators.

I hope Elizabeth May reads these comments
Ms. May, your defense of these emails is unneccesary. Here is the problem with your belief in global warming. You refuse to write that co2 is a trace gas in the atmosphere. You refuse to believe that clouds may cancel out an anthroprogenic signal from co2. You refuse to tell people that it takes 5 years to add 1 molecule of co2 to the atmosphere. You refuse to tell people that the temperature has been higher, and that there has been more co2 in the atmosphere. In the Cretaceous period, estimates of co2 concentration in the atmosphere were 2,000ppm. Today, we have around 380ppm. Sorry, the earth can tolerate a lot more co2 than you want it to. I bet 5 dollars this hack of a reporter won't respond to my post because it makes her angry that she cannot refute any of these facts.
shooshmon replied on Permalink
WHATS MOST OF THE ICE ELIZABETH! Yet another lie. You have no global index of the world's glaciers. Stop claiming that every single piece of ice in the world is melting.
That's our Elizabeth,
That's our Elizabeth, refusing to tell shooshmon's lies.
"5 years to add 1 molecule of co2 to the atmosphere" In whose dreams?
shooshmon replied on Permalink
Uh it's true vj
See heres the problem. You people think theres a giant black cloud of co2 floating high in the sky but it's not the case. Most of the co2 is being radiated into outerspace, eaten by plants, absorbed by the ocean, i could go on. So again, in the cretaceous, co2 ppm was at 2000, we are at 380. I'm sure all of you hate Richard Lindzen but if you read his new paper he explains that the atmosphere can only hold so much heat and then it releases it into outerspace. And the more co2 we put out, the more co2 plants will intake.
Thank you Elizabeth
Thank you for the effort you have put in.
It is a worthwhile thing to do in these days of such strong opinions. Opinions that should be based on knowledge. I was going to say 'should be based on knowledge rather than information', meaning that anyone who actually walks in the wild knows climate change is real. However, most of the denial is not even based on that, it is merely based on someone else's opinion. Unfortunately it seems that the majority are now 'reason-proof'. The power possessors of the world have uncorked the genie of 'unreason' to do their bidding and from hereon in the way it's going isn't upwards.

Beautiful boot
"Have looked at Aquatalia boots before at department stores but never found the perfect pair at a price I considered reasonable. These boots are beautiful and I think will be very versatile. The strap detail and small studs beside it add interest. Can be worn with skinny jeans tucked in, ankle pants or skirts and dresses with tights. The boot feels snug to me, and while I'm sure it will stretch as it's a quality leather, I went up a 1/2 size for comfort's sake. I really could have probably gone up a whole size if I wanted to wear a sock. Aquatalia boots are good for women with thinner legs so this doesn't gape at the top on me. But there is elastic for stretch and an adjustable buckle if you needed more room. The heel is a bit higher than I usually wear, but the boot is so comfortable I think it will be workable."

SAN DIEGO – The U.S. took one step forward in this weekend's Davis Cup by BNP Paribas first-round tie against Great Britain on a sunny but chilly Saturday afternoon at Petco Park in San Diego.
Bob and Mike Bryan delivered a fairly straightforward 6-2, 6-3, 3-6, 6-1 doubles win over the British duo of Colin Fleming and Dominic Inglot to provide the U.S. with its first point of the weekend.
The Bryans' victory helped the U.S. take away the sting of ending Friday with a 0-2 deficit. In the opening match on the tie, Andy Murray defeated Donald Young, 6-1, 6-2, 6-3, and James Ward bounced back from being two-sets-to-one down to upset Sam Querrey, 1-6, 7-6, 3-6, 6-4, 6-1, in the second singles match.
Now the tie will come down to the reverse singles matches on Sunday, with Querrey playing Murray in the first match, followed by Young taking on Ward. Murray holds a 5-1 lead over Querrey in head-to-head matchups.
"[Sam's] going to have to play significantly better than he did yesterday to stand a chance," U.S. captain Jim Courier said after the Bryans' victory. "Andy's a great player who plays well under pressure. Tomorrow is going to be one of those matches that Andy knows if he loses that anything is on the table in the fifth match (between Donald Young and James Ward). For Sam it's a free swinging match."
The Bryans' victory also removes a bad memory of their 2013 Davis Cup season, when they surprisingly lost both doubles matches they played. The Bryans are now 21-4 together in Davis Cup play after Saturday, and they are 6-0 when playing with the U.S. trailing, 0-2.
"We've been waiting a long time to get another opportunity to get that bad taste out of our mouth," Bob Bryan said. "It always feels bad to let the team down. We were kind of coming out of our shoes. [We were] really itching to get on the court."
The Bryans raced through the opening two sets in just 57 minutes. Fleming and Inglot weren't willing to just surrender, however, rebounding to force a fourth set. Nevertheless, the effort of the British duo went for naught as the Bryans quickly broke Inglot's serve twice to close out the fourth set – and the match.
Initially, the Brits were scheduled to play Murray along with Fleming but decided to give their No. 1 guy a day to rest. The Bryans were surprised about that decision but said they were prepared for all possibilities.
"We were getting ready for Andy all week, but we'd played Inglot a few times in the past," Mike Bryan said. "So in the back of our head we thought there was one scenario up 2-love for Britain that they might throw out Inglot. So we had every game plan on the able, and we prepared in the warmup for Inglot."
While the British team still head into Sunday's reverse singles with a 2-1 lead, the Americans go into the final day well aware that coming back from 1-2 down is certainly doable. The U.S. has accomplished that feat on five occasions in the past. Most recently, the U.S. survived being in a 1-2 deficit twice in 2000 – against Zimbabwe in the first round and then against the Czech Republic in the quarterfinals.
The quarterfinal meeting against the Czechs in 2000 happened just a few hours north of San Diego in Los Angles. The U.S. squad is hoping that California will bring good luck to the team again this year.

School officials are getting creative when they announce school is closed, releasing parody songs about ice and snow on YouTube. Shannon Rae Green shares the hilarious clips. Shannon Rae Green
Forget boring school cancellation e-mails. Hip administrators are announcing weather closures with funky parodies about snow and ice.
North Carolina's Durham Academy Head of School Michael Ulka-Steiner and Assistant Head of School/Upper School Director Lee Hark announced that school was closed on Feb. 13 with a chillin' rendition of Vanilla Ice's Ice Ice Baby. The parody is featured on the school's YouTube channel.
MORE: Schools offer 'e-learning days' to reduce snow impact
"All right stop, collaborate and listen. Ice is back and the roads will glisten," one administrator raps.
The other school administrator later adds, "Stay in your house and drink hot tea."
"No school, there's ice ice baby," they sing in unison. "No school, there's ice ice baby."
(Yes, I am dancing as I write this.)
Last week, a Kentucky school principal announced a snow day with a parody of Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody.
"Everyone grab a Snuggie and watch TV or play the Wii and maybe read," the song goes.
The principal of Olathe's Cedar Creek Elementary School in Kansas and his family informed the community of a snow day with a parody of What Does the Fox Say?
In the video posted on YouTube on Feb. 4, the family sings, "Wednesday's a snow day."
So, where were these school administrators when I was in the classroom? Thanks for the laughs, guys.

This is a dialouge-heavy anime so it makes the dub even worse.
I'm suprised how a decent amount of people like it.
It's not good at all.
[sarcasm] ITS SO GOOD [/sarcasm]
I don't know I kinda like it, but i'm going to give it till atleast episode 5 to give my full thoughts.
I never did like Death Note, however if it has a better dub then Blood+, I'll be surprised.
It's just the Metroid series remade for the Xbox crowd.
However Samus Aran is now some unknown low ranking military personal.
Also the space pirates worship some giant doomsday hula hoop machine.

I hadn't done a video outfit in a while so thought I'd do one today to go along side this post as I had a little extra time! My love affair with last year's boot of choice- My Topshop Allegra's. It's made me want to wear them all the time, I'm so happy I gave them another chance! I saw this coat on ASOS a while ago but only bit the bullet and bought it last week, Since then it sold out and Im SO happy I got it when I did! Although I really could have done with a smaller size, beggars cant be choosers! It's the perfect layering piece as it has a unique fluffy texture and is SO warm and snuggly I just love it.

Number eight Joe Bearman will make his 50th appearance for the Ospreys when they kick-off their PRO12 campaign at Treviso on Saturday.
Ospreys number eight Joe Bearman will make his 50th appearance for the region when they kick-off their PRO12 season away to Treviso on Saturday.
Bearman lines up alongside Sam Lewis and Tom Smith in the back-row while Ryan Jones leads the team from lock, in a partnership with James King.
Tito Tebaldi will make his competitive debut for the Ospreys at scrum-half while Canadian international Jeff Hassler is in the replacements.
"It's been a very long pre-season, we've had some boys back in since the start of June, so it's good to be getting back into PRO12 action this weekend. It's a tough start; Treviso beat every Welsh team at home last season, and we lost twice out there, so we know that we have to be at our best from the very first whistle," said head coach Steve Tandy.
"This time of year is an exciting one. We've got new faces in the group, so have the opposition, and there's always an element of the unknown about these first few games because every club approaches the first few weeks of the season differently. As far as we are concerned, it's crucial that we start the season better than we did last time. Three defeats early on left us with too much to do in terms of securing a top four spot, so we have to make sure we get off to a better start.
"If we can get our performance level right, if we know our roles, then we can be competitive. We'll focus on the things that we can control, and hopefully we can build on what we did last season. We've got an exciting, young group of players with a fantastic attitude, who have a real pride in representing the region, and if we pull together, we can have an enjoyable season."
Meanwhile, Treviso have named a strong team as they look to kick-off with a home win.
The Italian side is led by second-row forward Antonio Pavanello in front of an impressive back-row trio of Robert Barbieri, Alessandro Zanni and Manoa Vosawai.
Edoardo Gori and Alberto Di Bernardo are the half-back combination while Brendan Williams, Ludovico Nitoglia and Luke McLean form an attack-minded back-three.
Form: Benetton Treviso begin the season at home for the fourth successive year and must be hoping to repeat 2012/13 when they also beat Ospreys at Stadio Monigo 12-6. Treviso have lost just one of their last seven RaboDirect PRO12 encounters and have won their last five home games against Welsh regions in all competitions.

I co-sleep with my 2 month old daughter and we've just started nursing laying down it works out great, just one little problem. How do you burp the baby? I mean I don't mind sitting up to burp her but if i've got to sit up to burp her i might as well sit up to feed her. how do the other mothers out there deal with their night time feedings and burping their babies?? any suggestions?

I only burped if he felt squirmy or uncomfortable, and if I did I would lay him up my belly to burp.
OK. I have to try and describe this better.
I finished nursing on side.
I roll to my back
I put baby on his stomach on mine but with feet or knees on the bed and head towards other side of bed.
I only remember doing that a few times with this second baby. Do people burp every time?
I don't really do it at night. Does your baby really seem to need it or are you just covering all your bases?

i never burped ds2. i was rarely able to get a burp out of ds1, i'd pound on his back for 10 min. then he'd let out a big one 15 min. later
i'm w/naomi, if they're not squirmy, beating on their back only increases the likelihood of waking them up after they've nursing so sweetly back to sleep. it actually felt rude to try to burp him at nite.

But does he wake up if you don't burp him?
I had some much milk issues also..... the gas will get out on its own eventually.

I've never not burped her. I thought you always had to burp. They taught us in our prenatal classes you put them on one breast and then burp them until you get one (doesn't matter if it's big or little) than you switch breasts, and burp them after that breast. Until they are old enough to get the gas out themselves. I didn't know what age that was though
When my LO was really little he needed to be burped after every feed or would get a very sore tummy... now that he is a bit older he no longer needs that which is great. I used to stay on my side after the feed and then lean him against my tummy, up slightly so he was sort of arms over my side and tummy against tummy. Just this position would usually make him burp but if nothing happened I would just rub up his back. It worked well cause I didnt really have to get up and he was still supported and didnt have to be moved too much himself. Because he was leaning forward a bit while he burped he did sometimes have a spill, just to warn you!
Some babies are more windy than others. She may not need it... does she always burp when you wind her? Thats a pretty good indication. If you are getting a burp after every feed then maybe she does need it, if its hit and miss she might be alright left to her own devises. My little boy stopped needing constant burping after about four months. I think the age also depends on the baby. Experiment a bit, you will know pretty quickly if she is uncomfortable without a burp. Her tummy will probably be a little hard and she might seem a bit squirmier than normal, just looking uncomfortable.
Hope it works for you.Last edited by mumtoone; 06-02-2008, 12:14 AM. Reason: add

Hello, this is from kellymom.com
"Try to burp between breasts and after a feeding, but don't worry if baby does not burp and is content."
So what I am really saying is---If your baby has fallen asleep and you are about to, don't worry about the burping. Even if you are nursing down for a nap, at least you can get a 10 minute snooze! And that alone is a good reason for laying down and nursing.
Kellymom did say 4 mo is usually when you can stop burping, but I bet you will want to have your baby a little used to laying down nursing then!

One gets the uneasy feeling in the wake of yet another back-to-back debacle (ha!) that the good ship Sutter is starting to list ever so slightly. Or, rather, not slightly at all. Actually, it's pretty obvious we're taking on water here.
The first pin head hole in the hull appeared in February. The Flames looked vulnerable through most of the month due to some offensive struggles and a steadily declining PK that was busy giving up all kinds of quality scoring chances. The club persevered, however, largely on the back of their capable ES play and Miikka Kiprusoff's lone $6.5M-value stretch of games.
February ended with the Flames still well ahead of the Canucks for the NW division crown, but facing significant injuries and a long, brutal Eastern swing. Two more leaks blossomed on that road trip: goaltending and special teams. The big guns were full value, but the netminding went from all-star to towel boy and the PK and PP both resembled pale imitations of capable special teams: like a drunk karaoke singer trying to belt out Neil Dimaond on a lonely Wednesday night.
With ankles already soaked by rising waters and two thumbs already stuffed in the in the hull, Keenan is likely looking with panic at the latest fissure which has formed and grown over the last week or so - even strength play. Formerly the clubs enduring strength, Calgary has been outplayed at 5on5 through it's last 3 contests as well. Most distressing, it's the big guns - the money players - that have been consistently outdone recently. Not just in terms of results, either, which can be fickle and unrepresentative of performance - no, Iginla, Jokinen and Cammalleri have been fundamentally dominated by their counterparts for (at least) the last three contests. The $15M trio is getting outscored and they aren't even driving possession. Jarome Iginla skates blithely into checks and frequently loses the puck during board battles. Mike Cammalleri has suddenly become a give-away machine at either blue line. And, after an explosive debut, Olli Jokinen is invisible aside from missing a good scoring chance here and there.
Calgary's weaknesses keep adding up as their strengths fall away. The clubs recent spate of ineptitude (they're 3-7-0 in their last 10) is strongly reminiscent of their play to open the season in October, which was, not coincidentally, the last time the club was shut-out before PIT/CBJ.
Kipper's SV% currently sits at a marginal .903. The Flames GD, which was floating around the +20 mark for a long period of time, has been whittled down to +10. They've allowed the most goals against of any club in a play-off position (228) and suddenly, their best players have become liabilities.
In what has become a March tradition for this team since the lock-out, I'll say it again: if someone doesn't right the Flames ship post haste, this will be another brief play-off appearance for the Calgary Flames.
"Like a drunk karaoke singer trying to belt out Neil Dimaond on a lonely Wednesday night."
That's beautiful Kent LOL. I just can't figure Kipper out. He caught fire there for a few moments.... $6.5 million for this??
March 27 2009, 04:56PM
Anybody else pinning the hopes of a post-season run on the return of Rene Bourque?
Bourque has seemed to consistently provide the momentum changing goal, and fashions a relentless style of play that seems more infectious than a weekend with Roberto Alomar. (http://www.tsn.ca/mlb/story/?id=266682)
Maybe I'm delusional... but I think Bourque is a huge piece missing (that nobody is talking about).
Ah, well... At least it's the Wild tomorrow... Flames have had their number... and SJ seems to bring out the best of the group.
Go Fire!
I certainly think Bourque is a key piece, but it's not like he can improve the PP or Kipper's lackluster goaltending.

The Massachusetts House on Wednesday passed legislation making it easier for residents to register to vote and cast ballots.
The House bill would let Massachusetts citizens register to vote online and to vote early in presidential election years. Under the proposal, voters would be able to cast ballots up to 10 days before Election Day.
Rep. Linda Campbell of Methuen says the measure would shorten lines at polling places.
"This legislation will be very much appreciated by senior citizens and disabled population in the commonwealth, who, because of disabilities and age, sometimes face real challenges with parking and standing in line to vote," Campbell says. "It will be greatly appreciated by the many in the commonwealth who travel all over the world in conjunction with their employment."
There is still some disagreement over whether Massachusetts can allow early voting without changing the state constitution.
The Senate isn't expected to take up the bill until 2014. It's among a long list of unfinished business as the legislature ends formal sessions for the year.
More than 500,000 low wage workers will also have to wait to see if their incomes go up. While the Senate passed a bill this week raising the minimum wage, the House has decided to put it off.

Reviews of this property
The apartment is a short walk from the old town of Alghero, everything is within walking distance without problems. Newly arrived Cristina was so kind and nice, gave us advice and material to guide us in the city. The house is well-kept and that -what I never capitatata- much prettier than in pictures! The room we rented we had a single bed and a half (Cristina feared we were close but we slept great). The room was not big but clean, in excellent condition, with air conditioning and large flat-screen TV. The bathroom, private use of the room, offering a multitude of products for personal hygiene and other household appliances. Every morning early, Cristina came to set the table in the kitchen for breakfast, undoubtedly the highlight: the fresh croissants, jams, biscuits, to snacks; since in the juices and coffee, impeccable. The kitchen overlooks a courtyard garden, very cute, and shade with a nice table in the center for relaxation. Flaws? mah if you really have to be picky advise you to put a good fan in the bathroom ... and some great pictures !!! ;) In short, the house was pulitita, the value for the right price, we were good, Cristina, has become available in person, by message and responded to our every question / request; we were very pleased with the choice ... and suggest it!
L'appartamento è a due passi dal centro storico di Alghero, tutto è raggiungibile a piedi senza problemi. Appena arrivati Cristina è stata molto gentile e simpatica, ci ha dato consigli e materiale per orientarci in città. La casa è curatissima e -cosa che non mi è mai capitatata- molto più carina che in foto! La stanza che abbiamo preso in affitto noi aveva un letto a una piazza e mezzo (Cristina temeva stessimo stretti ma ci abbiamo dormito benissimo). La stanza non era grande ma pulita, in ottime condizioni, con aria condizionata e grande tv a schermo piatto. Il bagno, ad uso privato della stanza, offriva un'infinità di prodotti per l'igene personale e diversi elettrodomestici. Tutte le mattine presto, Cristina veniva a preparare la tavola in cucina per la colazione, senza dubbio il pezzo forte: dai cornetti freschi alle marmellate, ai biscotti, alle merendine; dal the a succhi e caffe, impeccabile. La cucina si affaccia su un giardino interno, molto carino, all'ombra e con un bel tavolo al centro per il relax. Pecche? mah se proprio bisogna essere pignoli le consiglierei di mettere una buona ventola nel bagno...e delle belle foto!!! ;) Insomma: la casa era pulitita, il rapporto qualità prezzo giusto, siamo stati bene, Cristina, si è resa disponibile di persona, per messaggio e ha risposto ad ogni nostro dubbio/richiesta; siamo rimasti molto soddisfatti della scelta...e ve la consigliamo!
Cristina is very nice, very helpful with a b & b really nice, clean and centrally located, nothing better !! breakfast then was amazing!
Cristina è simpaticissima, molto disponibile con un b&b veramente carino, pulito e centrale, niente di meglio!! la colazione poi è stata fantastica!
We are very pleased with this item.
Cristina was very nice and helpful.
We had rented two rooms in this 14 days full access to the house. One night there was a couple on the 3rd room. But have not experienced as annoying. The location of the app. was perfect. Close to all amenities. Beach, supermarket, bakery and ancient city.
Every 3 days Cristina came clean.
We are very satisfied.
We missed only nice chairs to relax in the garden than it had been a big 10.
Wij zijn heel tevreden over dit object.
Cristina was heel aardig en behulpzaam.
We hadden 2 kamers gehuurd en in deze 14 dagen de volledige beschikking over het huis. 1 nacht kwam er een stel op de 3e kamer. Maar hebben dat niet als vervelend ervaren. De locatie van het app. was perfect. Dichtbij alle voorzieningen. Strand, supermarkt, bakker en oude stad.
Om de 3 dagen kwam Cristina schoonmaken.
We zijn erg tevreden.
We misten alleen lekkere stoelen om te relaxen in de tuin dan was het een dikke 10 geweest.
We had booked this room, because we wanted to stay close to the city center. When we arrived at the B&B nobody was present there. After calling, Cristina came by car and took us to another B&B a bit out of the center. Elio, the host of this new B&B, was very nice with us and we really appreciated the accommodation and can only recommend it (http://www.algherosolemare.com). But since this was not the deal we made and we never saw the B&B, which Cristina offers, we cannot give her any recommendations.
- Quality assured accommodation
- Every host is verified by telephone
- Secure payment via SSL encryption

|In response to Re: Pressure reducer readings
: I have a question about how to interpret pressure readings on the outlet side of a pressure reducer. With all my house faucets closed (no water running) my pressure gage reads 100 psi on the outlet side of the pressure reducer. This reading is not affected by how much the pressure-reducer's adjustment screw is turned. Is this normal, or a sign something is wrong with the reducer ? When several faucets are open and water is running through the line, the pressure reading drops by a certain amount, and now the pressure reading does change according to how much the adjustment screw is turned. Thus it seems the pressure reducer does not affect the static pressure when the water is not flowing, but does affect the static pressure when water is flowing. I thought the whole idea of a pressure reducer was to reduce the static pressure on the line, whether or not the water is flowing.
