We watched Cardinal George Pell’s funeral. Very moving and the Abp of Sydney, David Pell and Tony Abbott all spoke very well.

It’s shocking how he was persecuted and prosecuted by the Andrews regime and the Left in general.
It’s as though Australia had become a Third World Marxist dictatorship. Oh, wait…

R.I.P. Cardinal Pell.

How many of the protestors were paid like extinction rebellion?
I say that because while the RC was on, supposedly so that it never happens again, this was happening in SA. Whistleblower claims she was bullied after reporting concerns about paedophile Shannon McCoole
After McCoole was caught, by Queensland police, nobody at Family SA was reprimanded at all, until there was an RC. They behaved worse than the Catholic Church decades ago,
(and it was Pell who changed it) and no hate from the woke.
This protest was not about the children.

I’m shocked!
The Bureau of Meterology could say nothing really bad about January as in “the hottest eeevvvaaahhh”.
I’m sure they tried their hardest and “homogenised” the results to the max. but even that was not enough.
The best/worst they could claim was:
If they say it was equal average, the real temperature was probably much colder than they claim.
Another sign of global cooling.

1961–1990 average
Why are they using that period? Not 1991-2020
https://community.wmo.int/en/wmo-climatological-normals
Is OZ not a member of WMO?
…and don’t anyone go off on the word normal. It is part of a definition.
160
We are going back down the curve because they had to drop to the last century to match the lower temperature. No one uses the word ‘cooling‘ or even rapid cooling but that’s the tacit admission. Dropping to the temperatures between 70 and 30 years ago.
180
Good catch, it was cooler throughout the 1960s until mid 1970s, so clearly it makes the present warmer.
70
They are woefully out of data. Enter this into google and you’ll find a bunch of 10-20year old references and no evidence that they are moving to comply with the new normals
20
* out of date.
But data works on a level.
20
This requires an audit, ignoring the WMO regs is not a good look.

Even if they are doing something it is not a good look to be so late and to have not published publicly on what they are doing about it.

In the “grow trees in cities” thread, Simon posted an off-topic comment about the probability of Auckland’s recent heavy rainfall.
I can help him with his calculations: the probability is 1. It happened.
It is idiotic to calculate “probabilities” after the fact. Say you roll a dice ten times and get the sequence: 1, 4, 4, 3, 6, 1, 2, 1, 5, 1, the “odds” of getting that exact sequence (or any particular sequence) work out to be exactly the same as the odds of rolling ten sixes (i.e. 1/6^10). Yet it happens every time you roll a dice ten times. Amazing!
This is only part of his mistake. It is wrong to treat weather as random (randomness being the central subject of statistics). The reason rainfall is difficult to predict is not due to randomness, but due to chaos. For a “basic physics” example of something unpredictable but not random, try the double pendulum.

Every climate wally worth their carbon footprint has been yapping non-stop since last Friday like a pack of Pavlov’s dogs drooling at the ringing of the bell – or the falling of the rain.
Apart from one meteorologist who mentioned the blocking high and its ensuing ‘squash zone’, and a few references to La Niña, the consensus is The Narrative. No mention of the Tongan volcano, the lack of warming, lack of cyclones, erratic jet streams, sunspots, nothing… No mention of record cold and snow in the N.H. neither.
The problem was poor drainage, lack of maintenance, and building homes & businesses in flood plains, gullies, old riverbeds. drained swamps, or on cliff tops. Such is man’s folly when Nature comes to town.
90
And nary a mention that such downpours are commonplace in the Coromandel which is a few seconds of longitude from Auckland.
You might reasonably argue that the event was an inevitability.

Why were chainsaws invented?
Chainsaws were originally initially invented in Scotland to help with childbirth, circa 1780.
They were used to separate the mother’s pelvic bones when they blocked the baby’s descent into the birth canal.
Chainsaws weren’t indeed used to cut wood until almost the 20th century.
The procedure was performed without anesthesia and using small knives, which required the surgeon to act both quickly and accurately.
John Aitken and James Jeffray created the first chainsaw to make this process easier for doctors and patients.
The first portable chainsaw was patented in 1918 by Canadian millwright James Shand. However, he let his rights lapse and the German company Festo (now Festool) began producing saws using his design in 1933.
In 1926, German engineer Andreas Stihl created the first electric chainsaw, which weighed about 140 pounds (64 kilograms) and required two people to operate. It was intended for bucking (the process of cutting a tree into usable lengths).
Stihl improved the design in 1930. He released an electric chainsaw to cut longer wood sections in log yards. Only one person could operate this Stihl chainsaw.
The following model, released in 1933, weighed as little as 55 pounds (25 kilograms).
Stihl’s former business partner, Emil Lerp, created the first gasoline-powered chainsaw and founded the forestry company Dolmar to mass-produce it in 1927. Stihl also developed a gasoline-powered chainsaw in 1929 called the “tree-felling machine”.

John,
That’s the most effective contraceptive I have ever heard of . So tell me doctor , what’s that thing over there with blades on a chain for ?
40
Yes, probably very good for neutering men too…

To all,
Chainsaws are dangerous to use.
If one cannot change a car tyre, then I recommend that you do not hire a chainsaw to use.
I attended 8 chainsaw incidents last year, where a DIY inner city type had tried to attempt something that was beyond their limited skills.
Sadly, none ended well.
If someone with limited skills wants to cut a 4 inch diameter tree branch, use a bush saw.. If you make a mistake and survive (98.8%) , you may only lose a finger, break some bones or get a very sore head or thorax.
That is a better outcome for all, both responders and patient.
61
I want to buy a chainsaw but I intend to do a
chainsaw operators course first. Plus you can buy protective clothing which the chainsaw won’t easily cut through.
Meanwhile, a bow saw like https://www.bunnings.com.au/fiskars-61cm-24-soft-grip-bow-saw_p3360360 or a pruning saw like https://www.bunnings.com.au/bahco-190mm-foldable-pruning-saw_p0242926 have amazing cutting power and I have used both to clear a friend’s overgrown backyard and then chopped all the branches into small pieces with a lopper like https://www.bunnings.com.au/fiskars-smartfit-l86-telescopic-bypass-lopper_p3361166 Then everything goes in multiple green bins over multiple months.
The maximum branch or trunk diameter I cut was probably 20cm.
20
David, I am an unable to recommend any product.
I will say, make sure you wear Chaps . One will bleed out fast if the femoral artery is cut. It is a bugger to find and clamp post inury. Protect it.
Most are gone before we arrive.
If you have little or no experience in using a chainsaw…
Then a chainsaw operators course, I would highly recommend.
30
Learn to operate the chainsaw and then approach with confidence. Don’t be afraid of them. Stable footing, clearance and situational awareness are needed.
10
A reciprocating saw is a good alternative for home gardening applications and may be used in applications where the chainsaw is unsuitable- cutting buried tree roots for instance. Moreover it can cut through roots with diameters considerably longer than the cutting blade.
30
I’ve been slowly cutting a largish old macrocarpa down with a hand saw and feeding it into the green bin & the woodpile. However a few months back a neighbour said he had a chainsaw I could borrow, he’d bought it 6 or 7years back, used it once and been banned from touching it again by his wife! So I have it on permanent loan and give him the firewood..
I’m sure any worthwhile course on chainsaws is 90% on how to start reluctant two-stroke motors!
50
I trust that you use all the appropriate protective gear, including the proper chaps. One of our offspring posted photos of just why you need those chaps if the chainsaw kicks back. The mesh stops the chain instantly; better ruined mashed up chaps than your arm or leg.
40
” The mesh stops the chain instantly;”
Not so instantly when it’s an electric chainsaw. Remarkably “torquey”, those electric motors.
10
The key to starting any 2 stroke motor ( chain saw, hedge trimmer, leaf blower, O B motors, etc) that has not been used frequently, is how you stop it. !
When finishing the job, yo should alwas run the motor out of fuel ( shut off the fuel supply and let the motor run to a stop.
This prevents the fuel/oil mix in the carby from evaporating off and leaving the oil residue to clog up the jets etc…which makes restartig in the future …v hard.
Mains or battery electric chainsaws are the go for the back yard lumberjack !
… but do not use one unless you know what you are doing.
20
If it is not going to be used for a while empty the fuel tank and then run the carb out
00
The chainsaw is the most dangerous tool on a farm, having displaced circular saws from that position.. Closely followed by the angle grinder
WE had a Czech friend, now dead, a fitter by trade, who lived and worked in Western Sydney. He was an enthusiastic personality. He used to visit from time to time shooting and fishing.
It was winter and the house was out of firewood. I was bedridden with a bad back, couldn’t contemplate cutting wood. Mirek was there. “I will cut wood for you”. i had visions of Mirek in his carefee manner waving the chainsaw around, but things were desperate, so OK. I dragged myself out of bed to supervise. When we got to the timber Mirek said “When we were in Austria we were cuttinrg down trees on hills like this”, indicating far steeper conditions than we had. His chainsaw expertise exceeded mine.
30
It was a small piece of theatre that perfectly demonstrated the absurdity and overreach of today’s ‘health and safety’ obsessed authorities.
Some years ago, I was dealing with an agency as I tried to obtain CE approval for an instrument due to be shipped to Europe. It was a nightmare of ever-more ridiculous demands making me ask, at one point, why the guy thought the ENGINEERS who would be operating the device were morons. Seriously, he seemed to think EVERYTHING was a danger.
Then, just when we thought we’d got there, he came back with yet another demand, this time wanting a mechanism added to a sliding panel so that those idiot engineers forgot to remove their fingers from the gap before shutting it …
I recall totally losing it at that point and, in the course of my rant, demanded to know why it is that a simple sliding door is considered too hazardous for a highly-trained operator to use, yet any fool with zero training, myopic vision and one arm is allowed to rock up to a store and buy himself a 24″, high-powered chainsaw – and just figure out how to use it when he gets it home.
20
Think of the fingers that have been released into the wild by this advance in technology – or vertical scars to foreheads not just the intended pubic symphysis.
Quite topical for me as I have just finished rebuilding an electric chainsaw. Had an olive leaf in the armature. Is that a peace offering?
60
” Is that a peace offering?”
No , a warning sign .

Tom Nelson interviews Javier Vinos over at wuwt and I picked up this graph, there is no correlation between temperature and CO2.
https://i0.wp.com/wattsupwiththat.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/Fig-6.png?ssl=1
60
To be fair there is a correlation for 50 years out of 11,500 years, however the accuracy of the data produced during that 50 year period is questionable.
Astonishingly there are people in this world who can ignore the first 11,500 years of that graph in order to maintain the belief simply so they can (in their mind) be proven right
70
It’s pointless comparing atmospheric CO2 levels to AIR (atmospheric) temperatures.
The correlation is between atmospheric CO2 levels and OCEAN temperatures.
Warmer oceans = more atmospheric CO2. Cooler oceans = less atmospheric CO2.

Unique SARS-CoV-2 variant found in public sequence data of Antarctic soil samples collected in 2018-2019
The COVID-19 pandemic has been going on for two years now and although many hypotheses have been put forward, its origin remain obscure. We investigated whether the huge public sequencing data archives’ samples collected earlier than the earliest known cases of the pandemic might contain traces of SARS-CoV-2. Here we report the bioinformatic analysis of a metagenome sample set collected from soil on King George Island, Antarctica between 2018-12-24 and 2019-01-13. It contains sequence fragments matching the SARS-CoV-2 reference genome with altogether more than half million nucleotides, covering the complete genome on average 17×. Preliminary phylogeny analysis places the sample close to the known earliest cases. The high sequence coverage rules out chance alignments from other species but possible laboratory contamination cannot be excluded. The sequence harbours a unique combination of mutations, unseen in other samples, so whatever its origin, it can add important piece of information to the puzzle of the ongoing pandemic.

Has this been mentioned before?

It’s 14 months old yet has never seen any significant light of day as far as I have noticed. On the surface and to an almost entirely non-expert observer (me) it would appear to be highly relevant. It precedes Wuhan.

News to me, its a wonder the UK mail isn’t onto it.
20
The Chinese hamster is to blame.
‘ … the findings suggest SARS-CoV-2 did not come from Antarctica but rather contaminated in samples of their cells.
‘The most probable scenario is that they were contaminated cells in a lab as the Chinese hamster is used to study other betacoronaviruses such as MERS-CoV and SARS-CoV. The Vero cell line in green monkeys is used to study the Marburg virus.’ (Medical News)

“Objectivity Has Got To Go”: News Leaders Call For End Of Objective Journalism
Advocacy journalism is the new touchstone in the media even as polls show that trust in the media is plummeting. Now, former executive editor for The Washington Post Leonard Downie Jr. and former CBS News President Andrew Heyward have released the results of their interviews with over 75 media leaders and concluded that objectivity is now considered reactionary and even harmful. Emilio Garcia-Ruiz, editor-in-chief at the San Francisco Chronicle said it plainly: “Objectivity has got to go.”
We have been discussing the rise of advocacy journalism and the rejection of objectivity in journalism schools. Writers, editors, commentators, and academics have embraced rising calls for censorship and speech controls, including President-elect Joe Biden and his key advisers. This movement includes academics rejecting the very concept of objectivity in journalism in favor of open advocacy.
Columbia Journalism Dean and New Yorker writer Steve Coll decried how the First Amendment right to freedom of speech was being “weaponized” to protect disinformation. In an interview with The Stanford Daily, Stanford journalism professor, Ted Glasser, insisted that journalism needed to “free itself from this notion of objectivity to develop a sense of social justice.”
He rejected the notion that journalism is based on objectivity and said that he views “journalists as activists because journalism at its best — and indeed history at its best — is all about morality.”
Thus, “Journalists need to be overt and candid advocates for social justice, and it’s hard to do that under the constraints of objectivity.”

2) If I was Aboriginal, Torres Strait Islander, “Indigenous” or “Not allowed to ask” and a number of others such as “Torres Strait Islander but not from the Torres Strait”. My preference was to say “indigenous” since I was born here but I elected the option “Not allowed to ask”.

If it keeps up like this they’ll need another revision of ocean temp. data like the one Obama probably commissioned Karl et al to produce to erase the post 1998 pause just in time for Paris.
“Previous analyses of global temperature trends during the first decade of the 21st century seemed to indicate that warming had stalled. This allowed critics of the idea of global warming to claim that concern about climate change was misplaced. Karl et al. now show that temperatures did not plateau as thought and that the supposed warming “hiatus” is just an artifact of earlier analyses. Warming has continued at a pace similar to that of the last half of the 20th century, and the slowdown was just an illusion.”
It’s all just an illusion!!!!!

They regard it as misinformation, a sure sign the Klimatariat is on the run.
NOAA et al is in a huff at the audacity of this individual exposing the big lie, so they’ll be saying an occasional lull can be expected in a warming world.
This is how NOAA saw the previous pause (written in 2016), it seems natural variables rule.
‘The most likely explanation for the lack of significant warming at the Earth’s surface in the past decade or so is that natural climate cycles—a series of La Niña events and a negative phase of the lesser-known Pacific Decadal Oscillation—caused shifts in ocean circulation patterns that moved some excess heat into the deep ocean. Even so, recent years have been some of the warmest on record, and scientists expect temperatures will swing back up soon.’

Even the Climate Council website is quiet on his passing.
