Why the 2018 Discoveries on Mars Give Us the Best Hope of Life Yet

Let’s get something straight right away: there are no little green beings on Mars. Horror films about the Red Planet often show humans being eaten by something sinister and creature-like on Mars. Luckily, the reality is more subtle. Yes, we do have a hope of finding life on Mars — especially due to two new discoveries this year. But when we talk about life on Mars, we don’t mean monsters. We mean microbes.

The Absurd Theory of Rising Sea Levels is a Child’s Bedtime Story | Armstrong Economics

QUESTION: Marty I read your daily newsletters as the only source of real news ‘out there’ Fascinated by the report that Canadians are discovering thickening ice cover How do I convince reporters for the much respected ‘Wired’ magazine and the Popular Mechanics website that their constant refrain of ice melts, rising sea levels et al is – well – bonkers I just don’t get why they cannot find time to read the evidence: is there cash in it for them too? I started reading them years ago because I thought they were not part of the Deep State or in the pockets of the establishment – whats going on ? DW ANSWER: The entire theory is really pathetic. If this is a natural event, then the government needs to spend money to help people. If it is caused by humans, then they get to tax people to curb their behavior and save the world? This is no different than war. We invade Iraq on pretended weapons of mass destruction because it is profitable to Cheney and crew, but we do not invade North Korea who has weapons but nothing to profit from. Let’s see. Which one will I choose to get rich? These pretend scientists who are as corrupt as Cheney in my opinion, presume that if the ice melts the sea will rise or they use that statement to make money and scare everyone. They cannot point to anything of that nature taking place in history. They also completely ignore the research of real experts on the oceans and how they function. They ignore the fact that there have been ice ages and warming periods. They fail to comprehend that if the ice melts, that is when it gets colder – NOT WARMER!. The Arctic can then begin to evaporate and that returns as snow building the glaciers. That is HOW ice ages form. These people think that if the ice melts the sea will rise and we all die so raise taxes and they will get endless grants. This is just such an absurd theory it reflects truly childish bedtime stories without a pebble of truth to build a foundation. These clowns have NO idea of how to conduct research. You follow the breadcrumbs. You do not start with a conclusion and then try to prove it. The Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory at Columbia University back in 1956 published A theory of ice ages by Maurice Ewing and William Donn. They were the most influential oceanographers to date, yet the Global Warming people have completely ignored their work and bastardized it for political gain. A warmer Arctic Ocean would mean that water would flow more freely between it and the Atlantic, dissipating the cold making the Atlantic colder. There is the key to an Ice Age. If all the ice melted in the Arctic Ocean leaving open water that was then warmer by mixing with the Atlantic, then a warmer Arctic Ocean surrounded by colder land around it would produce evaporation and that water would then return back to the land in the form of snow. More snow that falls in Greenland and Northern Canada is what makes glaciers grow deeper. When the Arctic Ocean is covered in ice, then there is NO EVAPORATION and thus we do not move into an Ice Age – we get Global Warming which is historically when civilization expands. It is always the same. There is a natural 13-year cycle in red tides. I simply did 15 minutes of research and asked were there any major fish kills before the United States. Up popped many accounts. So I fail to see how these people think. The first thought that runs in their mind is we caused it. They then claim it must be farmers when there were none in the 17th and 18th centuries using chemicals.

Faux science debunked

Canadian Coast Guard Report Atlantic Ice is Increasing | Armstrong Economics

The Canadian Coast Guard is reporting that the Atlantic Ice in Canada is increasing. The extreme cold temperatures and the high winds have been combining to expand the Arctic ice. There is a natural cycle to this and they have reported that the seasonal “freeze up” is occurring three to four weeks ahead of normal and above the 30-year average. This winter is once again extremely cold. It has only been in the 60/70s here in Tampa and the same is true in Abu Dhabi. If next year 2019/2020 is colder still, this will be the fourth year and at then we would decline at a bare minimum very steeply into 2021/2022, where out models on markets are predicting a shocking event. So while the pundits keep talking about Global Warming and we will all suddenly become extinct, as Todd May is a professor of philosophy at Clemson University wrote in the New York Times: “I want to suggest, at least tentatively, both that it would be a tragedy and that it might just be a good thing.”

How Soon Should We Expect Designer Babies?

When Adam Nash was still an embryo, living in a dish in the lab, scientists tested his DNA to make sure it was free of Fanconi anemia, the rare inherited blood disease from which his sister Molly suffered. They also checked his DNA for a marker that would reveal whether he shared the same tissue type. Molly needed a donor match for stem cell therapy, and her parents were determined to find one. Adam was conceived so the stem cells in his umbilical cord could be the lifesaving treatment for his sister.

A 19 Mile Wide Meteor Crater Discovered Beneath the Ice in Greenland | Armstrong Economics

Part of the type of events which can alter the climate besides volcanoes, which tend to erupt during solar minimum, has also been meteor impacts. It has been recently confirmed that one of the largest meteor impacts some 19 miles in diameter lies hidden beneath the glacier in Greenland. It is remarkably well preserved but exactly when the impact took place is not known. It is believed that the crater was formed less than 3 million years ago. This proves that there was no major ice at the time and the resulting depression was subsequently covered by ice. So, once again we have people claiming Global Warming will raise sea levels and focus their theories ONLY on post-Industrial Revolution. The world has not been stagnant nor has even the poles been fixed forever.

Global Warming Has Nothing to Do with the Sun? | Armstrong Economics

Those who have come forward and presented evidence the sun is the leading cause of global warming have been typically silenced because that results produces no pot of endless government grants to justify taxes. It is interesting that while they claim use sunscreen because you can get skin cancer from the sun when it comes to global warming, the sun has nothing to do with it. 10 YEARS AGO TODAY on December 13th, Al Gore Predicted North Pole Would Be COMPLETELY ICE-FREE in Five Years! The problem we face is that when there is an endless pot of money available, people will say whatever it takes to get their hands on it. Every spending bill in Congress needs an economic study to make some bogus claim. I was told to be a good boy. Pump out studies to support legislation and would earn millions per year. I declined the offer. I said I actually enjoy the research following the breadcrumbs to see where they lead. I guess when you can trade and make money it eliminates those types of temptations.

The Weird Story of an Infamous “Alien” Skeleton

The place: Atacama Desert, Chile. The year: 2003. A local man named Oscar Muñoz was searching for trinkets left in the abandoned town of La Noria when, according to UFO news site OpenMinds, he spotted a white cloth tied with a violet ribbon. Inside, he found a miniature skeleton, about the length of a pen, with an elongated skull and the wrong number of ribs. Could it be an alien? UFO hunters and scientists alike have puzzled over the true nature of this skeleton, dubbed the “Atacama humanoid” or just “Ata,” ever since. On March 22, 2018, a research team presented the most thorough conclusions yet. The verdict? Definitely not an alien.
