    Things are getting serious.

    Keep in mind:

    If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.

    “Hottest Ever” global weather spike records from reanalysis datasets.

    This is a fantastic development !!!

    Big Climate have inadvertently shifted focus from delayed homogenized anomaly timeseries to almost real-time non-homogenized absolute timeseries – hooray!

    They are picking single datapoints (weather) to conflate natural variation with their climate spin – hooray! Fine by me.

    So now BOM’s ACORN-SAT (and every other similar) has a “control”. And the BOM Australia timeseries profile (including Tas) does NOT match the NCEP/NCAR R1 (excluding Tas) in terms of a 60yr linear trend 1952-2012 (more on that later).

    The one day records are from NCEP CFSV2/CFSR below. Reanalysis data (and info blurb) can be accessed by University of Main’s Climate Reanalyzer and NOAA’s WRIT. Just one for now (note the different default datasets):

    Climate Reanalyzer https://climatereanalyzer.org/

    1) Daily 2-meter Air Temperature (NCEP CFSV2/CFSR)
    2) Monthly Reanalysis Timeseries (NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis V1, or R1)

    use of both and a comparison with ACORN-SAT follows.

      1) Daily 2-meter Air Temperature (NCEP CFSV2/CFSR)

      Easy to see the “hottest ever” days but now we can break it down. I’ve annotated the latest “hottest ever” from the interactive graph datapoints:

      Choose Area (Fri July 7, 2023):

      World: 17.23C (“Hottest Ever”)
      NH: 21.93C
      SH: 12.62C
      Arctic: 4.27C
      Antarctic: -25.36C
      Tropics: 25.88C

      Did anyone anywhere actually experience the “hottest ever” 17.23C ?
      The only ones to so would be in a narrow latitudinal band in the NH – nowhere else.

      The latest spike does NOT appear in NH but does in SH. The SH spike origin is Antarctica.

      Both of the 2 recent Antarctica spikes (natural variation) have been the source of both one day records and 1.5C “limit” breaches – NOT El Nino or climate change as has been disseminated.

      Next: Hide All

      Switch on 2023 and 1980. The graphs are interactive so you can mouseover (hover) the date in the key index or the timeseries line to highlight 1980.

      Notice anything unusual?

      Same for 2002 and much of the 2000s – no “climate change going on there.

      Well worth while getting familiar with this tool (and NOAA’s WRIT) given we’ve entered a new era in the ongoing climate change saga.

        This is wrong. Also a narrow latitudinal band in the SH.

      2) Monthly Reanalysis Timeseries (NCEP/NCAR Reanalysis V1, or R1)

      With this we can see the “control” characteristic of R1 vs ACORN-SAT.

      R1 excludes Tasmania below and ACORN-SAT includes Tasmania (with individual State options):

      R1 https://climatereanalyzer.org/reanalysis/monthly_tseries/

      Select Region Australia and All Months – Plot

      Voila! Actual absolute Australia timeseries showing annual cycles. Doesn’t look anything like BOMs anomaly graphs. Unfortunately no linear trends available (see WRIT for that).

      Next select Anomaly Values – Plot

      Note the segment 60 years 1953 – 2012. Obviously by eye there is no trend in that segment. This neglects the outliers at each end of the series.

      Now compare that same segment to ACORN-SAT:

      ACORN-SAT http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/change/#tabs=Tracker&tracker=timeseries

      Set T=linear trend, 0.13C/decade

      That trend is for the entire series but the 1953 – 2012 segment looks nothing like that in R1 and would still conform to the overall profile – hence the R1 vs ACORN-SAT “control” function.

      This is fun. I don’t think Big Climate has thought this through.

        Linear trends for the 60 year time segment Australia 1953 – 2012.

        BOM ACORN-SAT: 0.162 C/decade (includes Tasmania)

        NCEP/NCAR R1: 0.0242 C/decade (excludes Tasmania)

        The R1 slope is essentially flat, only 0.145 over 6 decades. That’s still less than BOM’s slope for EACH of the 6 decades.

        This demonstrates the difference between homogenized and non-homogenized temperature series taking both at face value:

        1) Homogenized data creates spurious warming.

        2) Reanalysis reveals very little or zero effect from CO2 over 60 years.

        Note that the Lat-Lon R1 data box encompassing Australia is both land and sea i.e. not just mainland Australia. Region is 40S – 10S and 110E – 156E.

      University of Maine has issued a “Special Notice” on their Climate Reanalyzer page. This must be due to all the attention it is getting after the “hottest ever” hype.

      Special Notice, 8 July 2023
      Climate Reanalyzer is a data visualization website for climate and weather models and gridded datasets. Climate Reanalyzer is NOT a model. This “Daily 2-meter Air Temperature” page shows area-weighted daily means calculated from the 2-meter air temperature variable from the Climate Forecast System version 2 and Climate Forecast System Reanalysis, which are publically available products of the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Prediction. The purpose of the interactive chart and maps on this page is to view daily snapshots of temperature as estimated from the Climate Forecast System. The increase in mean global temperature since the start of July, estimated from the Climate Forecast System, should not be taken as an “official” observational record. It is important to note that much of the elevated global mean temperature signal in recent days can be attribute to weather patterns in the Southern Hemisphere that have brought warmer-than-usual air over portions of the Antarctic.

      Contradicts all the El Nino and climate change rubbish attributions for “hottest ever”.

      In respect to “NOT a model” the page has always given the data sources:

      Data Source & Information

      CFS/CFSR is a numerical climate/weather modeling framework that ingests surface, radiosonde, and satellite observations to estimate the state of the atmosphere at hourly time resolution onward from 1 January 1979.

      Not a model devoid of observational constraints but still a “modelling framework” constrained and based on as close to real-time data as can be obtained.

      Obviously surface station data must be obtained only from electronic stations (EWS) that have an internet or dedicated feed that CFS/CFSR can pick up.

      These systems are the source of nightly TV weather all around the world i.e. universally accepted.

    China’s military is leading the world in brain ‘neurostrike’ weapons

    China‘s People’s Liberation Army is developing high-technology weapons designed to disrupt brain functions and influence government leaders or entire populations, according to a report by three open-source intelligence analysts.

    The weapons can be used to directly attack or control brains using microwave or other directed energy weapons in handheld guns or larger weapons firing electromagnetic beams, adding that the danger of China‘s brain warfare weapons prior to or during a conflict is no longer theoretical.

    “Unknown to many, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and its People’s Liberation Army (PLA) have established themselves as world leaders in the development of neurostrike weapons,” according to the 12-page report, “Enumerating, Targeting and Collapsing the Chinese Communist Party’s Neurostrike Program.”

    Neurostrike is a military term defined as the engineered targeting of the brains of military personnel or civilians using non-kinetic technology. The goal is to impair thinking, reduce situational awareness, inflict long-term neurological damage and cloud normal cognitive functions.[sounds like the average dumphone user. JC2]

        Be extremely subtle even to the point of formlessness. Be extremely mysterious even to the point of soundlessness. Thereby you can be the director of the opponent’s fate.

        The whole secret lies in confusing the enemy, so that he cannot fathom our real intent.

    The Rutte IV cabinet has fallen.

    The asylum talks that have been going on for months have torn apart the partnership between VVD, D66, CDA and CU. A final attempt to reach an agreement in a crisis meeting on Friday has also been unsuccessful.

    This allows the Netherlands to prepare for new elections, probably in the autumn. The cabinet met as a whole on Friday evening, after which Prime Minister Rutte gave a press conference. Minister Adriaansens (Economic Affairs, VVD) spoke on the way to that deliberation of “a disappointment”: “This is terrible. We are working hard and you always hope you get out.D66 education minister Dijkgraaf said he had mixed feelings.

    Things had run high in recent days after Prime Minister Rutte put a solid set of requirements on the table with a show of power on Wednesday. On Thursday, the Prime Minister had tied up again, and the parties decided to give it another day to look at a final proposal. But that also died, and with it the cabinet.

    The Biden Administration is panicking because they can no longer collude with Big Tech to censor “disinformation”.

    Define disinformation:

    DISSENTING information.

    Information that may well be true, but is inconvenient to our power structures.

      I think this is an example of one of our major problems.
      The fake bad/good narrative constantly artificially produced.
      It is my understanding that the court ruling still allows the government to police Big Tech in cases of ‘national security’.
      This leaves the Trump/COVID Deep State/Big Tech pipeline fully intact.
      Big gaping hole to drive an authoritarian truck through.

      Much like the SCOTUS ruling on ‘affirmative action’.
      The Unis can no longer have an official policy, however, SCOTUS allows that the student can claim and attach a statement of marginalized status that can be used to affirm action.
      ‘Affirmative Action’ left fully intact, just forced by the evil far-right to change hats.

      Speaking of Saturday …
      Fridays are saved for the dissemination of real news that the power structure wants buried.

      This is a statement by Dr. Gal Luft. a witness whistleblower to perfectly innocent Biden family business activity … Dr. Luft is now in hiding … for no reason at all.

    Antivaxxers Blamed for “Hijacking Data” as Birth Rates Continue to Decline in Australia and Sweden

    Today’s news is a sudden and unexpected plunge in birth rates in Australia.

    Birth rates dropped 15% compared to 2021

    Australia’s News.Com.Au has an article about it, and they blame… climate change!

    Australian National University demographer Dr Liz Allen said the drop in births was due to a combination of factors, both personal and external – in particular, concerns about housing, cost of living, and climate change. “Climate change has been cited by young people in Australia, and other similar countries, as a major concern and barrier to having children,” Dr Allen told news.com.au.

    https://igorchudov.substack.com/p/antivaxxers-blamed-for-hijacking

    Predictable total bollox from the MSM.
    Look at the graph. Has climate change only kicked in since the Fakevax ™ rollout?
    Or how about human biology – we normally have a core temperature of 37C, but it varies from 36.5C to 37.5C, FAR more than a 0.1C, if that, climatic temperature increase.
    On top of that, maximum female fertility occurs with an increase in core temperature, and men unaffected.

    Fake news from the msm! Hit them with a huge fine.

      I have a medical doctor friend in Melbourne for whom one of his specialties is male circumcision of infants whose parents request it. He will attest to the dramatic decrease in requests for these procedures due to a highly noticeable decline in births over the period of the covid vax. Just coincidental, I’m sure…

        Like deaths among the young, fit and healthy, the decline in birth rates can be ascribed to that terrifying new malady called ‘suddenly’.

      Steve

      According to Naomi Wolf, one of the major areas of research when developing the vax was the impact on fertility. This is detailed in Pfizers own documentation. So, the implication is that they were more interested in cutting fertility than tackling covid. Time will tell.

    Orbital sidekick hyperspectral imaging

    The first space-based hyperspectral imaging sensor built by San Francisco startup Orbital Sidekick, founded in 2016, literally went from the garage of CEO and co-founder Dan Katz to the International Space Station as an experiment for Air Force Research Laboratory.

    “That was a kick ass little sensor we … integrated in my garage in San Francisco, and then handed it off to SpaceX, which launched it. And then NASA, the astronauts, took it from the Dragon capsule and installed it,” Katz told Breaking Defense in an interview.

    Hyperspectral cameras break down pixels into hundreds of frequency bands and thus can detect minute differences in colors that cannot be seen by the human eye, or detected by other types of imagery cameras such as infrared. Thus, hyperspectral sensors can “see” what materials a surface is made of and identify individual elements in the surrounding atmosphere. For national security purposes, hyperspectral imagery could, for example, detect evidence of chemical weapon production and/or use.

    “Hyperspectral imagery, and the associate analytics that we provide, enable us to chemically fingerprint anything on Earth,” Katz said. “For defense and intelligence, it could be looking at the difference between what is camouflage versus what is real, being able to chemically fingerprint that; looking at hypersonics detection; looking at detection of rocket launchers; looking at chemical weapon detection; and nuclear nonproliferation.”

    He explained that Orbital Sidekick’s first sensor, capable of imaging in 150 spectral bands, was developed from one tested aboard an aircraft under a tiny AFRL Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase 1 grant in 2018, which then segued into a Phase 2 SBIR for testing it in space. Data gathered by AFRL was provided to the Air Force’s National Air and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC), he added.

    Decentralised censorship-proof media: How To Get Started With Nostr, Jack Dorsey’s Favorite Decentralized Social Network

    The bitcoinbitcoin community’s new favorite social media network, Nostr, is designed to rival email, blogging, Instagram, Twitter, Discord and more. It’s not an app itself. Rather, Nostr is an innovation in how digital text can be sent and received. Anyone can join and anyone can build apps freely using the protocol.

    Openness is a key principle of Nostr, which is why bitcoiners and crypto fans love it. As opposed to competitors like Sphinx or Mastadon, Nostr is easier to use, especially for newcomers.

    Nostr’s user growth skyrocketed from 90,000 users to 1.1 million over the past three months. While the protocol is still in the early days, it’s garnered the attention of Edward Snowden and former Twitter CEO and bitcoin advocate Jack Dorsey.

    In the interests of wokeness and “diversity” it’s interesting, and tragic, to see 5ft nothing, 1.52m, 50kg, 110lb female police officers, with hands barely big enough to hold or control their handgun, being put into rôles where they might need to subdue very large and aggressive males. I just saw a pair of them together, both the same diminutive size. I feel so safe…

    Back in the day, police officers had to be a certain minimum size so as to present some level of intimidation and strength against such aggressors.

    It was in 1986 that NSW became the first police jurisdiction in Australia, and among the first in the Western world, to abolish minimum height requirements for officers. Until then, a man had to be 174 centimetres – or 5 feet, 8½ inches. For a woman it was 163cm, or 5’4”. 11 Oct 2012 (FROM SMH)

      I witnessed this years ago with my local police, at the local shopping centre. There was a vocal violent chap being restrained on the ground by 2 burly security chaps. 2 police cars had turned up, all 4 occupants, physically exactly as you describe, were standing around gazing into space waiting for the transport to turn up. No doubt the security were retired coppers who had been managed out the force.

      It’s because Ukraine has a long-standing problem with unrestricted overuse and abuse of antibiotics.

      https://uacrisis.org/en/49527-antibiotiki-za-receptom

      Both activists and officials agree that uncontrolled use of antibiotics will increase mortality rate in Ukraine

      7 years ago

      By 2050, most antibiotics will not fight our diseases. The reason is that people use antibiotics uncontrollably, hospitals prescribe them incorrectly and medicines are uncontrollably added to animal food for growth. This was stated by Oleksiy Kyrychenko, MP, at a briefing held at Ukraine Crisis Media Center. “Doctors’ authority is decreasing. People see ads, buy antibiotics in pharmacies, do not stick to the right dose and period of treatment. This leads to relapse,” he noted.

    “‘Forever Chemicals’ In At Least 45 Percent Of US Tap Water: USGS Study”

    Around the height of the Los Angeles smog problem there was a cartoon of a he-man type saying “I breathe for taste. I live in Los Angeles County, USA”

    Could be adapted to “I drink for taste” with suitable geographic amendments.

    I wouldn’t be totally against seeing Trump choose Robert F. Kennedy Jr as a VP and both being independents.

    Not sure if I mentioned this but yet another close relative, diagnosed with a pre-cancerous brain ‘glioma’, has died. Several others are in their end phase with similarly aggressive cancers, all jabbed in the UK.

    You may have seen the numerous reports in the MSM regarding Brittany Higgins’ partner, David Sharaz, being pursued by Australian law enforcement about his alleged role in the whole Higgins debacle.

    For me this is entirely predictable, reflecting the largely unacknowledged and hidden role that powerful women are playing in today’s divisive politics. The principal protagonists in this outrage are Higgins, Labor’s Katy Gallagher and ‘journalist’ Lisa Wilkinson, yet so far at least, the searchlight of justice seems to be fixated on Higgins’ boyfriend, setting up the usual ‘a man made me do it’ defence.

    For those that can’t handle free speech on Twitter, Farcebook has launched a new censored platform along similar lines, called Threads.

    Another BBC abuse scandal, I’m guessing the obvious concealing of the sex of the victim means it’s more likely a male gay presenter as revealing that fact would make it considerably easier to guess the accused.

    Wind delivers “free” electricity (sometimes).
    On Thursday and Friday, as Tony has reported on his blog, across the AEMO grid wind delivered 56-61% of its nameplate capacity, an average of 6,000 MW, or about 25% of total demand.
    In Victoria, wind generated 52% of demand, coal 48%, with 37% being exported.
    The spot price was negative $33/MWh for much of the night, and daily spot prices for the last 3 days were $10, $1 and ($20)/MWh.
    In SA, wind delivered a peak 95% of generation.
    Wind delivered 30% of demand in NSW but only 12% in Qld.
    When can we expect the “cheque is in the mail” from Minister Bowen?
