Big Data
Analytics expert Nate Silver addresses the Adobe Government Assembly. (FCW photo by Camille Tuutti)
There is no shortage of hype about big data in the federal IT space, and separating the buzz from tangible benefits has thus far proven difficult.
So says Nate Silver, who recently authored a book about predictive analytics and successfully predicted the presidential election outcomes in all 50 states in his Five Thirty Eight blog for the New York Times.
Silver, speaking Feb. 12 at the Adobe Government Assembly in Washington, D.C., cautioned the audience that big data is "not a panacea" and won't single-handedly "solve all our problems."
Big data may well become one of the most potent tools in the government's IT arsenal and lead to countless data-driven solutions in the near future, but Silver stressed that it will still take good, old-fashioned brain power to engineer and makes sense of them.
"The people in this room are still pretty important," Silver said. "Don't become too enamored with computers."
In fact, he predicted, imaginative individuals will play a critical role in determining the future of big data in the federal sector.
Silver recounted several "cautionary tales" in big data drawn from his book, "The Signal and the Noise: Why so Many Predictions Fail, But Some Don't." And he offered three suggestions to federal agencies looking to thrive in the era of big data:
Think probabilistically, embrace uncertainty
Silver, who once earned six figures as a poker player, used an analogy from his favorite game to describe how agencies can employ big data. Playing the percentages, he said, can be beneficial, and routinely making the right play generally leads to foreseeable outcomes. But embracing uncertainty -- throwing a change-up now or then -- can lead a player to unexpected profit on the poker table, and could lead agencies to unexpected successes that boost their cost-benefit margins.
Sweat the small stuff when you face big problems
As a tool, big data can unlock all kinds of insights from massive amounts of data, but small changes in the way we approach humongous data sets can drastically change outcomes. Seemingly minor details should never be overlooked, Silver said.
Question your assumptions; question everyone else's assumptions, too
Making sense of the noise can be challenging, but finding signals in the noise does not always mean they are connected, Silver said. It's also important to be cognizant of what people are saying, and why.
"Beware of people who tell you (big data) will solve all your problems," Silver said.
Big data is a challenging concept for any user, but Silver noted one more challenge facing the public sector that perked the ears of the agency-heavy audience.
"Bureaucracy is the enemy of imagination," he said, as the crowd erupted into laughs, smiles and knowing glances across the table.

The latest version of the Defense Department-wide Enterprise Service Management Framework places more emphasis on managing IT risk.
Despite GSA's efforts to accelerate the FedRAMP approval process, the lack of agency reciprocity puts the program's central goals at risk.
Got some early-career colleagues who are doing great things in federal IT? Nominate them for FCW's 2016 Rising Star awards.
The agency software inventories required under the draft category management policy will be treasure maps that lead to efficient, effective, streamlined buying and unprecedented savings.
As experts warned of the "dire" threats posed by outdated federal technology, lawmakers grilled top feds, debated workforce issues and inched closer to backing a $3.1 billion fix-it fund.
The agency is making strides in developing and deploying border technologies but still has some weaknesses.
Agencies have spent almost $23 billion on legacy IT over the past three years, according to reports to Congress. Is a revolving fund the answer?
The United Kingdom will go live with its governmentwide digital identity platform, GOV.UK Verify, in the coming days. The U.S. government will need a little more time.
What contracting officer representatives really think is needed to fix contract management.
I like the comment :"As a tool, big data can unlock all kinds of insights from massive amounts of data, but small changes in the way we approach humongous data sets can drastically change outcomes. Seemingly minor details should never be overlooked, Silver said"As any expert in charts can tell you, "The way you look at data all depends on what you want the data to say!". (Yes, I know that was not his intent, but it is true none the less.)

Should teams be allowed to buy chassis from other constructors and race them in Formula 1? It's one of the most divisive arguments in F1 today and it's not a new debate. Up until the early 1980s it was entirely commonplace for teams to race customer chassis. Those in support of it today maintain that … Continue reading "Ken Tyrrell: The Authorised Biography" (Maurice Hamilton, 2002)

Banned! X-wings
Posted on
Over a pint a former Tyrrell mechanic once told me where the idea came for the hideous 'X-wings' that the team brought to the sport came from. This was in 1997, at which point the team was in its death throes – the last year in which boss Ken Tyrrell was still at the helm. … Continue reading Banned! X-wings

ok, so I posted this on the old board as well. I hate this double board time. lol it has really made it difficult to try and find time to get on bbc. anyway, here is the post. so dh and I are thinking about taking the family to the Hill Camorah Pageant in July and to visit the church history sites. We looked for RCI resorts, and there aren't any close to Palmyra, so I now I am looking into the idea of camping. I have no clue what the weather is like, how crazy it is there, what to really do there, and where to even look at camping. can anyone give me any good suggestions? for anyone who does not know, we have 4 kids, ages 7, 4, 2, and 1. we like camping, and road trips - - I just do not know what I am looking for here. lol

AbstractNASA is seeking innovative spatial and visual methods for search analysis and display of scientific data, to aid outreaching of this data to the interested mass-users. To address this need, AGNC proposes to develop innovative Attribute Image Map Fused 3D Web-Objects (AIMFO-3DWO) technology and software toolsets, based principally on new organization of geospatial datasets that integrates topographical maps, attributive information, remotely sensed imagery and DEM into one unified data aggregate and format. The AIMFO-3DWO will bring together a fully functional Web-GIS, relational database management system (RDBMS) and image processing tool with new means of data management and manipulation, based on singular software toolset including super-compact data format that will be very effective in fused datasets distribution over networks and will make it possible to deploy PDA and even mobile phone clients.

I'm rehosting a TCL/TK app from Solaris to a RHEL 6 sytem (GNOME/gdm). It runs fine on Solaris, but not RHEL. When this app uses send command, I get the following error:
X server insecure (must use xauth-sytle authorization) command ignored while executing "send myapp myproc myarg"
I understand TK send uses Xauthority, and that might be why I get this error. I just don't know how to fix it. I also learned that I can recompile TK with -DNO_SECURITY. I'm saving that as a last resort.
I'm running the app locally, so I'm not using xhost+. However, I tried using xhost+ and it still fails with the same error.
A google search turned up several solutions but they haven't worked on my RHEL6 system.
Any suggestions? Anyone have experience with this on RHEL6?

Minoan Architecture
Minoan palace centers had a central ceremonial courtyard, and were divided into numerous zones for civic, storage, and production purposes.
Learning Objective
Discuss the architectural design of Minoan "palaces."
Key Points
- The palaces excavated on Crete functioned more as administrative centers with rooms for civic functions, storage, workshops, shrines around a central, ceremonial courtyard.
- The palaces had no fortification wall, suggesting a lack of enemies and conflict, although the natural surroundings provided a high level of protection, and the multitude of rooms created a continuous, protective façade.
- Minoan columns are uniquely shaped, constructed from wood, and were painted. They are tapered at the bottom, larger at the top and fitted with a bulbous, pillow-like capital.
(Singular pithos) A large storage jar for bulk storage of liquids (oil, wine, and water) and grains.

Minoan Architecture
The most well known and excavated architectural buildings of the Minoans were the administrative "palace" centers.
When Evans first excavated at Knossos, not only did he mistakenly believe he was looking at a labyrinth, he also thought he was excavating a palace. However, the small rooms and excavation of large pithoi, storage vessels, and archives led researchers to believe that these palaces were actually administrative centers. Even so, the name became ingrained, and these large, communal buildings across Crete are now known as palaces.
Although each one was unique, they shared similar features and functions. The largest and oldest palace centers are at Knossos, Malia, Phaistos, and Kato Zakro.
The Complex at Knossos
This provided an example of monumental architecture built by the Minoans . The most prominent feature on the plan of Knossos was the palace's large, central courtyard. This may have been the location of large ritual events, including bull leaping, and a similar one can be found in every Minoan palace center.
Plan of the Palace at Knossos.
Knossos, Crete, Greece. ca. 1700-1400 BCE.
Several small tripartite shrines surrounded the courtyard. The numerous corridors and rooms of the palace center created multiple areas for storage, meeting rooms, shrines, and workshops. The absence of a central room, or even living chambers, suggested the absence of a king and rather, the presence and rule of a strong centralized government.
The palaces also had multiple entrances that often took long paths to reach the central courtyard or a set of rooms. The palace structures had no fortification walls, although the multitude of rooms created a protective, continuous façade. While this provided some level of fortification, it also provided structural stability for earthquakes. Even without a wall, the rocky and mountainous landscape of Crete, itself an island, created a high level of natural protection.
The palaces were organized not only into zones along a horizontal plain, but also had multiple stories. Grand staircases, decorated with columns and frescos, connected to the upper levels of the palaces, only some parts of which survive today.
Wells for light and air provided ventilation and light. The Minoans also created careful drainage systems and wells for collecting and storing water, and sanitation. Columns were uniquely constructed and easy to identify as Minoan . These were constructed from wood, not stone, and tapered at the bottom. They stood on stone bases and had large, bulbous tops, now known as cushion capitals. The Minoans painted their columns bright red and the capitals were often painted black.

Don't ever go this venue. The owner who comes out first is so crude, unfunny, heckling (to the audience--if you could even call the 10 people in attendance an audience) that we didn't stay for the main act. We are never going back to this disgusting venue. They don't even serve water (only Voss, which you have to buy), and I can see why they were on an episode of 'Bar Rescue.' Terrible. Do not waste your time, money, or dignity.

I am searching a way to reset these variables, but I can't find a programm/command to do so.
Thanks everyone for helping me!
I think you must be talking about the NTP Drift file. From Dr Mill's (originator of NTP) website:
Deleting the drift file and restarting the ntp daemon so solve your problem. In debian, you'd do the following (note that the drift file may be stored in different places...you can always use the "locate" command to find it):
You can set:

BALTIMORE (CAP) - A study released today by the Under Armor Institute reveals confusion among many consumers who believe that the simple act of putting on exercise-related clothing is "as good as or better than" actually working out when it comes to providing health benefits.
"Look, we can't stop the tubbos from being tubbos," said Matthew C. Mirchin, Senior Vice President of Global Brand and Sports Marketing. "But I'm glad we finally have some hard data on this."
Mirchin said he first came up with the theory while eating at Chili's when three women seated next to him ordered eight plates of Texas Cheese Fries and four Bacon Ranch Quesadillas. While not that unusual "for gals like these - real Omega Mu types," he said it was their wardrobe that caught his attention.
"Each one of them was outfitted head-to-toe in Under Armor workout gear," Mirchin noted. "They had everything - running sneakers, stretchy capri workout pants, the whole shebang.
"That's when it hit me: these women thought that somehow just wearing our gear would be enough," he added. "Even as they were shoveling melted cheese and tortillas into their food gullets by the pail full."
The details of the study reveal that many people consider themselves athletes, despite having no athletic ability and putting no effort into training or competing, simply based on their wardrobes.
"There's a reason why Reebok sells more Crossfit t-shirts in size XXL than size M," said social psychologist Neal Doherty. "We are an obese, lazy country, but we're also too stubborn or too stupid to admit it.
"The problem is, your clogged arteries don't know you are wearing that Pain is weakness leaving the body sweatshirt," Doherty noted. "They only know that you chose sitting on the couch and eating an entire party-sized vat of cheese puffs instead going for a walk, again."

Posted on 08/03/2012 8:05:51 AM PDT by joinedafterattack
[photo at link] On a day that some gay-rights activists are planning a "National Same-Sex Kiss Day," a Chick-fil-A in Torrance was vandalized overnight with hateful graffiti.
Chick-fil-A employees were greeted Fridays morning with the words "Tastes like hate" scrawled in large black lettering mimicking the chain's advertising across the back wall of the restaurant at 182nd Street and Hawthorne Boulevard in Torrance.
With media helicopters hovering overhead and police officers on the scene, one employee said, "I'm just trying to sort everything out."
(Excerpt) Read more at latimesblogs.latimes.com ...
Everyone at the Cranberry, PA store was smiling, congenial, friendly, people introduced themselves and shared stories about how long they waited to park, or stood in line, in good humor.
It was not about chicken sandwiches, but Judeo Christian morality and Traditional America Values. Many Christian shirts, and we thanked the Boy Scout leaders there for the hours of work they put in with their troops.
A great day for our side, and for Dan Cathy who made a little money, as well as all the Chick-Fil-A employees who put in some long hours.
I think they need to open their own restaurant. Fil-A-Rump. The drive-thru would be total chaos.
Winner, winner...Chicken Dinner :>)
hubby is headed back to Upland today to buy our dinner salads! The peach shakes are the best! Love those chicken strip salads!
Reminds me of the George Carlin joke: There was a freak accident on the highway. Six freaks in a van hit two freaks in a Volkswagen.
Notice the spin. The graffiti "marred" the event, as if it wasn't part of the event. The reality is that these filthy, criminal Leftists intend to commit crime and vandalize when they protest. Its part and parcel with their protests, unlike the polite conservatives who clean up after themselves when they protest. As was the case with Occupy Wall Street, these Lib MSM organizations go out of their way to claim that any violence, crude acts, crime or vandalism had nothing to do with the protest.
Some don't even try to dodge it. They have this thing where they search for "gift givers", who are sodomites with AIDS, so that they can deliberately catch it. Can you imagine how degraded a mind must be to deliberately seek to become infected with AIDS? Neither can I.
He is the only one on FOX that I never watch. Ever since he made a rude comment about Pres. Bush years ago, when he thought his segment had run out, I have believed him to be a sneaky Lib. It appears he is also gay. I really don't care, but if he called yesterday a "day of intolerance" and said that on the air, I am not surprised. I just wish you hadn't posted his picture. Something about him gives me the creeps, and it is not his politics or sexual orientation.
Speed bump? Better back up and check it out ;-)
I bet that's not all those Homo kisses taste like!
Maybe the queer population should just be turned over to the Muzzies now. It's inevitable anyway.
I think you'll find a higher percentage than normal? of homosexuals in the media;several of the small town newspapermen locally were said to be "queer" in the 1960s ,but no one did anything as long as they kept it to themselves.
And they fear anything and anyone which boils all this brouhaha down to what is essentially about-their apparently uncontrollable to put body parts in places where they most assuredly don't belong. Nasty filthy disgusting acts of degradation. That's what all this is about, in a nutshell. They have become very adept at dressing it up in all kinds of distracting rhetoric so that people have lost sight of what this is basically all about. It's not "love", sodomites are one of the most promiscuous groups there are.
Just had lunch at CFA. No sign of any hate filled leftists. Just a lot of families eating and kids playing in the play yard. There were no empty seats. I got served by an Eagle Scout from our Troop. Several cops were there but they were just eating lunch. The drive through line wrapped all around building and stayed that way all through lunch even though it was moving quickly. There were fresh flowers on every table, a very nice touch.
I don't envy the MSM on this one. /sarcasm. Everybody knows how things went Wednesday. Now the media has to cover today's snit fit as if it's a national movement like ours. That means finding kiss in participants in some numbers that they can get on camera and make it look like they have a large turnout. Not an easy job. Leftists will probably have to call ahead to the MSM so they can coordinate having fruits in the right place at the right time. We didn't have to do that.
Chickfilnacht by the National Socialist Party.
And their hero muslims execute homosexuals.
what we conservatives need to do is gather a few good painters and volunteer to paint the mess, while having a sing fest. Nothing like a fun time to dampen their protests!
It's too bad it doesn't work for straight whites and white families, thanks to the biased media.Such as the South African family whose black gardeners just hacked the parents to death in front of their 12yo son, whom they then drowned in boiling water. They didn't even forget to kill the dog, named "Snowy". The murderers are on trial, but they must know they'll get off with a slap on the wrist, as they are sitting in court laughing and smiling. But the greater public will never hear of this horrendous crime. Nor of yet another elderly couple-this time in Kansas City MO-who have been robbed and beaten, the wife raped. This on the heels of the attack on the elderly couple in OK, in which the wife was killed. The perpetrator was, in the former case, a 14 yo old black male. In the latter, an 18 yo black male.
These are just three more horrendous crimes against whites which would be global headline news if the victims were black.
Joined today, did you?
Welcome to the discussion....
Cars would get rear ended all of the time.
They should have waited and raided the dem convention. The sodomites would have been a dime a dozen.
Maybe you can answer this......
The Butt Pirates just don't get that muslims hate them, and if sharia happens they would be the first to go.
Yeah, somebody didn't read the rules when they signed up today-FR is a pro-family, anti-sodomite agenda, conservative website.
Yes, the important thing is to listen and LEARN what you hear from the "speech pattern" of others you trust, but only from Democrats (sp?) of course.
How clever you ALSO are!
Welcome to FR!
I have to be in the area where my CFA is today and I'll go thru the drive thru to buy food unless the line is long and then I'll go inside. I hope the homos don't show up at mine. I'll be there around 3 pm and if I see homos there demonstrating/kissing, I'll post it on this thread.
I saw one cup of Victory Water. Loser dude couldn't even find anybody to bring with him to kiss. (I was not going to volunteer!)
I think most gay people just want to live in peace. A lot of them have been ridiculed their whole life long - even before there would be any "sexual orientation". Four-year-olds don't have a "sexual orientation", but there are 4-year-olds who are teased because of the things they like to do or the way they act. Sometimes the response to the ridicule is that the kid believes what he/she is told they are. Often they just want somebody to love them.
The flaming parade-naked-in-SF, poop on cop cars, and teach fisting in schools agenda is embarrassing to them. That's not who they are or what they want. They want to just quietly live their lives. Their sex life and preferences are nobody else's business and they don't want it to be anybody else's business. Don't ask, don't tell.
Those people are the reasonable people who can walk into a Chik Fil-A and be treated with courtesy and respect while treating others with courtesy and respect. It is to their credit that they are speaking out against people like this college lecturer. Chances are good that they can relate to what that worker felt like, and they don't believe that 2 wrongs make a right.
My family watched "The Help" a while back, and it was good for the kids to see the kinds of dehumanizing treatment that Blacks have had to deal with over the years. The few Blacks that I've known would be disgusted by ANYBODY being treated that way, not just Blacks. But like with the gay agenda, there are people with a racial agenda that is just as violent or disrespecting as the anti-Black attitudes in America's history; it's just the Blacks being on the top instead of the other way around. My kids haven't seen Blacks being treated badly, but my kids have seen Blacks treating others badly - both Blacks and non-Blacks. The radical leaders seem to think that two wrongs make a right - that the way to get rid of "racism" is to be the race that is beating up the other races.
The people out front pushing the "tolerant" or "non-racist" views are so often the ones who are intolerant and racist - and just want THEIR lifestyle or THEIR race to be the one that bullies, harasses, or commits violence. It just makes the reasonable people fearful that this is what "tolerance" or "non-racism" will be defined to mean. Blacks who look at the evidence about George Zimmerman, for instance, have got to be scared of the way the lynching is still going on, as if evidence and justice STILL don't matter.
The race pimps and flaming gay activists are not helping anybody or anything. I think reasonable people can see that.
A bomb threat
Abusive bullying
To try and crush the will of Chick Fil-A employees.
Good luck with that. Have fun in jail.
...and the right has engaged in...
Eating chicken sandwiches...
Chowing waffle fries...
Drinking yummy peach shakes...
Waiting in line to get their hands on these goodies...
Got to watch those people. :-)
I am in the Torrance CFA right now. Ordered up #7 meal and asked about last night's vandalim. Gal said they already took care of the graffiti.
Said I was here to support them and she very politely thanked me.
ABC and Fox is here.
Families enjoying their meals and no sign of gay protesters.
From my BlackBerry.
You're absolutely right...Christians are no threat to sodomites, but muslims will cut their damn heads right off...
Is Shep gay?
Dead on.......history is repeating itself and we cannot allow ourselves to be a party to it by our silence or inaction.
You know what? Wearing a yellow star might not be a bad idea for Christians in this country. It just might get our message across that WE are the ones being hated and persecuted. A yellow star with I am a Christian printed on it. Or a yellow cross, but the star would be immediately recognized as the symbol of the persecution of a religion.
The wall in question is facing east opposite from the Hawthorn Blvd store front. The entrance is the east side of the building. I think I will have to go down there and support CFA again today in light of the real hate displayed by these idiots. Homosexuals are so stupid in their chase for society's validation of their chosen lifestyle when they fail to realize that choosing that lifestyle does not entitle anyone to extra-constitutional rights no mater how much hate they want to spew.
Don't worry. The target is Christians, so it's okay.
Is Rihanna a no talent skank?
Hopefully this continues to backfire on them.
People are seeing that when it comes to homosexual extremists and homosexualists, everything in existence is about them and their genitalia.
How a guy talking about their pro-family, pro-traditional family stance, the homo-extremists and homosexualists translate that into HATE, because the guy isn't kissing the proverbial homosexual ass,
this is what is going to awaken people and turn MORE AND MORE against them, as they are revealed to their true colors - COMPLETELY narcissistic, self-centered, self-genital-obsessed, attention whores that they are.
Well... the dominance of good or evil seems to come in cycles. We seem to be 'back in step'. The 'blacks' and 'whites' have been given each other to blame and kill. The Indians and Mexicans get a pass. The 'gays' (bad choice for a handle, btw) are being used for their money and their political influence. The Muslims are using everybody so they can install Sharia Law which gives them a local power base, and provides the unity of government and religion in the hands of one 'leader'. This is what the ruling elite want. One seat of power. Ultimate power.
When the 'new world order' officially announces the establishment of a socialist dictatorship (Dec. 21,2012 ?), the helpful idiots will be lined up against the wall and executed.
The unwilling amongst the populace will be taken to internment camps. The rest will be EQUAL. All members of the WORKER PARTY. All getting their 'fair' share of what the ruling elite and royalty decide to let the populace have, in order to maintain control.
I had lunch at Chik-Fil-A today, and there was no one kissing. Just lots of customers enjoying the yummy food, friendly & courteous staff and great service. At noon, the drive through was wrapped around the building, and you had to stand in a short line inside. Just a typical day at Chik-Fil-A.
It's hard to get started in the News Industry.
"Dont worry. The target is Christians, so its okay./s"
I know you meant it as sarc but honestly, my take is the target IS Christians. The media is using the gay group to promote, foster, incite and fuel hatred toward Christians. 100% this is an anti-Christian crusade. When I see the same vile directed at Islam-practicing business owners by the leftest gay groups, THEN I will believe it's a gay issue. The media is again using a group to suit the agenda of the media.

"Sami History, Arts and Crafts" Guovdageaidnu / Kautokeino Things to Do Tip by SMILLA76
Guovdageaidnu / Kautokeino Things to Do: 10 reviews and 12 photos
A beautiful museum of Sami traditional handicrafts and books about the Sami, combined with an exciting exibition of art and carpets from Afghanistan, a coffee shop, a chicken 'zoo' (inside the museum! not joking!), an arts and crafts shop, a silver workshop... So many things combined into one! And so cosy! And such a wonderful view over the neighbouring area!
This is Juhl's Gallery: a chest box of beautiful things, but also of history. At Juhl's they also have a comprehensive collection of old books about the Sami in many languages, as well as a collection of Sami traditional household objects.
The owners of the place are not Sami, and not even Norwegian, so their collections, and the art and jewlery workshop, and their interest in Sami culture have been at times accused of having only a profit-making purpose.
N.B. During Easter there is always a classical music concert with free entrance in Juhl's Gallery!

Exposed: Phelim McAleer's 'FrackNation' Deploys Tobacco Playbook in Response to Josh Fox's 'Gasland 2'
The fracking industry really doesn't want you to see "Gasland 2," which I can understand because it is in some respects even better than the Oscar-nominated "Gasland." The industry has brought in anti-science film-maker Phelim McAleer to shadow director Josh Fox during Fox's PR tour and to produce an industry informercial, "FrackNation." McAleer has a long track record of trying to disrupt and disinform (see my 2009 post "A falsehood-pushing film-maker tries to shout down real journalists from asking Al Gore questions"), DeSmogBlog has been doing a great job of exposing this oil and gas industry PR campaign, so I'm reposting their latest 2-part series — JR.
By Steve Horn via DeSmogBlog
Big Oil has deployed the "Tobacco Playbook" once again, this time in response to the release of "Gasland 2."
It comes in the form of a documentary film titled, "FrackNation," whose co-directors' funding in the past came from Donors Capital and Donors Trust, referred to by Mothers Jones' Andy Kroll as "the dark-money ATM of the right" and a major source of funding for climate change denial.
Both "Gasland 2" and "FrackNation" cover hydraulic fracturing ("fracking"), the toxic horizontal drilling process via which unconventional oil and gas is obtained from shale rock basins around the country and world. Co-produced and co-directed by Irish couple Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney, "FrackNation" purports to be "funded by the 99 percent to combat the misrepresentations by the 1 percent of urban elites who want to tell rural Americans how to work and live."
McAleer and McElhinney also say they are independent journalists working independently of corporate funding. McAleer was referred to by the San Francisco Chronicle as "climate denial's Michael Moore" and both McAler and McElhinney are listed as "experts" by the climate change-denying Heartland Institute.
"FrackNation is an independent film and we want to remain independent of the Gas industry and be funded by ordinary people," it says on its KickStarter page that it used to raise $212,265 from 3,305 backers of the film between February-April 2012.
This isn't the first dip in the "doubt is our product" pond for McAleer and McElhinney. In the past, they co-directed and co-produced a pro-mining documentary titled "Mine Your Own Business" and a climate change denial documentary titled, "Not Evil, Just Wrong."
Both McAleer and McElhinney have made a living in recent years deploying the "Tobacco Playbook," mutating settled scientific debates on energy and climate catastrophe into false two-sided affairs, which corporate-funded news media take and run with as "he-said, she-said" stories.
Filmmaker's History of Tobacco Playbook Deployment
"FrackNation" made its public debut in Jan. 2013, coinciding with the release of "Promised Land," a Hollywood drama starring Matt Damon.
"It's time Hollywood celebrities and environmentalists were asked some difficult questions about their anti-fracking activities and ideologies. And that's what FrackNation does," McAleer said in a press release announcing the world premiere.
McAleer and McElhinney are now singing a similar tune about "Gasland 2," as it approaches its July 8 HBO release date.
"Mine Your Own Business"
Countering popular environmental struggles and luminaries is the modus operandi for McAleer and McElhinney, with a track record of doing so dating back to the mid-2000's. Their first public foray into the world of "marketing doubt" came with the release of their "Mine Your Own Business: The Dark Side of Environmentalism."
Released in 2006, the film was produced in response to the anti-mining protests that popped up against Gabriel Resources proposed open-pit gold mines in Romania, slated to be the largest in Europe. McAleer said it was "the world's first anti-environmentalist documentary."
One key funder: Gabriel Resources. This moved local Romanian citizen Eugen David to write that the film was pure propaganda.
"Because the gold lies squarely under and around the village of Rosia Montana, Gabriel needs to move out the local population — roughly 2000 people all in all. But it's not only the people that will need to go," David wrote in Jan. 2007. "Gone also would be our mountains, pastures, rivers and our churches, cemeteries and school – our community with its social fabric and traditions."
The purpose of the film was obvious: complicate the narrative on the proposed mine through ad hominem attacks on environmentalists, rather than addressing environmental issues associated with the mine itself. David and fellow citizens living in the proposed mining area didn't buy the bluff.
"After a first unannounced test screening in Bucharest, Gabriel Resources had to stop the film after 15 minutes because people were so revolted by what they saw," he further explained.
"Mine Your Own Business," however, did have a loyal fan base: the right-wing echo chamber.
Steve Milloy, a tobacco industry front man-turned-fossil fuel industry front man, wrote two favorable reviews for Fox News. The Salt Institute and Atlas Society (named after Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged") echoed Milloy's efforts.
"Not Evil, Just Wrong"
In response to the proposed 2009 federal climate legislation and in the run-up to the 2009 Copenhagen United Nations international climate summit, McAleer and McElhinney released the film, "Not Evil, Just Wrong." Akin to "FrackNation" with "Gasland 2" director Josh Fox, the film spends much time attacking former Vice President Al Gore in ad hominem fashion, with the film serving as a response Gore's "An Inconvenient Truth."
"It has no commercial distributor, but instead debuted on an October 18 webcast heavily promoted by social conservative organizations like Focus on the Family and the American Family Association, as well as local Tea Party groups," a Mother Jones article explained.
Paralleling "Mine Your Own Business," the film was met with great fanfare within the right-wing echo chamber despite lack of commercial distribution.
"They've held pre-screenings for bloggers and brought the film to every major conservative conference of 2009, including the Values Voter Summit and Americans for Prosperity's Defending the American Dream Summit," one news media report explained. "At the Conservative Political Action Conference [CPAC], McAleer and McElhinney spoke right before Rush Limbaugh."
Other Big Tobacco apologists-turned-Big Oil apologists also helped promote the film: Grover Norquist's Americans for Tax Reform and the Heritage Foundation, the Cornwall Alliance, The Washington Examiner, Collegians for a Constructive Tomorrow (CFACT), the Fraser Institute, Breitbart.com, and Right Online.
McAler and McElhinney have brought the Tobacco Playbook to the big screen. The question remains: who's funding them?
Donors Trust, Donors Capital Funding McAleer, McElhinney
"Mine Your Own Business"
"Mine Your Own Business" was funded by Gabriel Resources, but Gabriel wasn't the only fundee. The other patron: Donors Trust/Donors Capital.
In the past, McElhinney and McAleer were formerly Fellows at the Moving Pictures Institute (MPI), founded by Thor Halvorssen. MPI, in turn, produced "Mine Your Own Business" and is a member of the State Policy Network (SPN), a right-wing echo chamber network for state policy that publishes PR "studies" to promote the corporate agenda.
Halvorssen also runs the Human Rights Foundation (HRF), which has taken $764,950 from Donors Trust and Donors Capital since 2005, according to a recent investigative story by Max Blumenthal. Blumenthal also explains MPI took more than $300,000 from Donors between 2005 and 2011.
"Not Evil, Just Wrong"
"Not Evil, Just Wrong" also received funding from Donors. DeSmogBlog contributor and Guardian (UK) climate changer writer Graham Readfearn explained in a Feb. 2012 article that Donors funnelled $24,753 toward the film.
This lends an explanation as to why "Not Evil, Just Wrong" was promoted by well-heeled climate change deniers in the mid-2010 Balanced Education for Everyone (BEE) campaign, calling for a "balanced" scientific teaching of the climate change "controversy." The BEE campaign parallels ones pushed for via an American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) model bill, by the Discovery Institute, and by the Heartland Institute.
"Global warming alarmists want Americans to believe that humans are killing the planet," BEE's former website explained in promoting the film. "But Not Evil Just Wrong, a documentary by Phelim McAleer and Ann McElhinney, proves that the real threats to America (and the rest of the world) are the flawed science and sky-is-falling rhetoric of Al Gore and his allies in environmental extremism."
BEE's campaign was run by the Independent Women's Forum (IWF), which in Oct. 2003 signed a partnership with Americans for Prosperity (AFP), an astroturf front group founded and funded by the Koch Brothers, key funders of the climate change denial machine. The two entitites at the time announced they would share leadership, senior staff and office space, a formal relationship they say ended in 2005.
IWF – before it disbanded – was formerly headed by current AFP Board Member Nancy Mitchell Pfotenhauer from 2000-2005, who also sat on IWF's Board of Directors from 2005-2007. From 1998–2000, Pfotenhauer served as a lobbyist for Koch Industries, also serving as Senior Policy Advisor and spokesperson for the 2008 John McCain presidential campaign.
Pfotenhauer was also the former Executive Vice President of Citizens for a Sound Economy (CSE), established by Charles Koch and affiliate Richard Fink and propelled by $13 million in grants from Koch Family Foundations. After CSE split into FreedomWorks and AFP, she served as AFP's President and CEO. She now sits on the Board of Visitors of George Mason University and on the Board of Directors of the CATO Institute, two other key entitites that make up the Koch echo chamber.
"Not Evil, Just Wrong" shared the same PR firm with BEE, Go Ahead PR, a sure sign that the film's release and the campaign were part of a well-coordinated campaign.
And though McAleer and McElhinney say "FrackNation" was bankrolled via a grassroots KickStarter fundraising drive, a deeper dig into its books – as will be seen in part two of this investigation – calls that all into question.

Anyone called "an expert" by the Heartland Institute surely just an anti-science hack. It's incredible that films such as these are believed.
"One does not play games, or take chances, when essentially the whole of civilization and humanity MAY be in peril." http://climatestate.com/2013/05/03/false-climate-change-data-a-crime-against-humanity-ecocide/
I look out at the solar farms going up in may local. Where are the noise, the pollution, the constant trucks and trains running back and forth to the site? They just sit there and make electricity.
I doubt if we will ever see a headline " solar panels vent radiation onto nearby town". Or "solar panels particulates killing local residents".
PSE&G is converting old industrial sites (brown zones) to solar farms. How can all those industrialist/mining people take this lying down? Or maybe they just lie.
Yes, but who "proposes a transition concept that excludes these draconian reduction"?
And are these really that draconian – it will probably help to spur a new economy – a cleaner economy. Just as it happened in Sweden after they introduced a CO2 tax.
Should we also consider the source of funding for Gasland 1 & 2 as well as the misinformation which they contain. The most egregious, or notorious, example is the man lighting his kitchen faucet on fire. As we now know, this has nothing to do with fracking and may have nothing to do with a natural gas well.
You also might want to reconsider the blanket statement about fracking being a toxic drilling process considering the availability of totally non-toxic fracking fluids. Halliburton has announced one with all ingredients sourced from the food industry.
Donors Capital and Donors Trust also fund fake religious groups like the Cornwall Alliance. That connect "Environmentalism" to Satan and One World Governments. -Beware the Green Dragon bla bla bla http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGEOFipx70U
On Russia Today: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWwTKPswsPE
Cornwall Alliance funding: http://www.pfaw.org/rww-in-focus/the-green-dragon-slayers-how-the-religious-right-and-the-corporate-right-are-joining-fo
Are they, or anyone else, actually using this new 'local food industry' fracking fluid? How much is Halliburton shipping?
Different Kind Of Boom: Replacing Extracted Oil And Gas With Toxic Wastewater Causes Earthquakes http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2013/03/27/1780101/different-kind-of-boom-replacing-extracted-oil-and-gas-with-toxic-wastewater-causes-earthquakes/
Don't mess with Texas water, frackers warned
Eagle Ford in Texas is one of the fastest-growing shale oil and gas plays in the United States, but it is also in one of the driest parts of the country.
Following a severe drought in 2011, concerns are mounting that oil and gas extraction is competing with irrigation for scarce water supplies.
Drilling and fracturing rock formations to release oil and gas uses enormous quantities of water: 4 to 5 million gallons of water for every well in the Eagle Ford, according to most estimates, equivalent to about 15 acre-feet per well.
Most of the water used is fresh and drawn from aquifers that are also needed to support farming and local drinking supplies. Frackers prefer fresh water because it is less corrosive. Saline water or waste water are expensive to clean up and use http://www.reuters.com/article/2013/05/01/us-column-kemp-texas-fracking-idUSBRE9400HB20130501
Morons will believe what they want to believe, and what their Rightwing MSM Thought Controllers tell them to believe. Why do you think that the Right is so determined to destroy public education?
Don't worry. Down in the Stygian depths of the Rightwing propaganda Cloaca Maxima, you can be certain that well-paid goons are concocting 'solar panel syndrome' to go with 'wind turbine syndrome' one of these most banal, and preposterous inventions of pseudo-science since phrenology. And that it will be pushed by the Rightwing MSM with the same loyalty to power that characterised their efforts to destroy wing power.
I've 'tyred' of you, already.
But Mr Tyrer, above, assures us that Dick Cheney pours it over his cornflakes.
I think George Carlin summed it up best "They want us smart enough to opperate the machines and fill in the forms, but dumb enough not to realise how badly we are being screwed"
May not be word perfect but close
Must be time for a 'tank revolution' over there, that is for collecting rain water, not the military variety. Tanks come in every shape and size to fit just about every space, ME
I'm employed in the Eagle Ford Shale as an industrial electrician. I work next to pump jacks and fracking crews every day on many different well heads where the air is thick with Hydrogen Sulfide. 104 degrees/12 hour days/6 days a week. A Fatality a day on the narrow farm roads. All resources from water to food to housing to electricity and datacom are in demand here. But jobs are plentiful and the wages are much higher on average than anywhere in the U.S. which is why I ended up here instead of starving in St Louis. I've seen this debate from both sides now and there is no HF opposition here and Austin is so far away that it's not likely to change. Texas is Pro Energy and the spinach farms will probably reach some compromise, meaning they sell their water for more than they sell their spinach. The tap water is barely drinkable. When I sweat I reek of chlorine. After living here for a year I think there is as good a chance to build a time machine to return to 1850 and conspire to end the Industrial Revolution than to prevent every drop of oil from being sucked from Eagle Ford shale. No political solution will ever stop the energy companies.
They hate birds, and I need a new keyboard.
Gaia will stop them, soon.

Man charged in wheelchair skirmishDecember 03,2012ST. JOHNSBURY A 71-year-old Vermont man is facing charges after allegedly trying to run down an elderly neighbor with his motorized wheelchair.
Gordon Kiefer of St. Johnsbury pleaded not guilty last week to a misdemeanor charge of violating an abuse prevention order.
The Caledonian-Record reported that 70-year-old Barbara Elzohairy told police that Kiefer came at her one afternoon last month while she was looking in a shoe store window on a downtown sidewalk. She said she jumped into a doorway to avoid being hit.
Elzohairy lives in the same downtown apartment building as Kiefer and has had a prevention from abuse order against him since June. She said this was the second time Kiefer had tried to hurt her with his wheelchair.MORE IN This Just InLOS ANGELES As throngs of Pokemon Go players traipse around to real-world landmarks in...
