Long overdue… Stolen(?) classified emails and files were released yesterday that proved that the junk scientists behind the global warming movement knowingly perpetrated a fraud on the global community.

The story of Inky Jim Jinkers should be one known to every schoolboy in the land. It is a story of commitment, love and, in the end addiction. As tales go, it is both romantic and cautionary. By rights, Jim Jinkers should be as famous to British people as Sir Winston Churchill or Henry VIII. Jim Jinkers was born in 1971 to Terry and Sheila Jinkers, both shepherds. Like many people of his generation,...

From Alexander the Great to Ghengis Khan to Winston Churchill, world leaders have always used propaganda and other psychological tactics to get into the minds of their enemies.

From Live Science: Winston Churchill once predicted that it would be possible to grow chicken breasts and wings more efficiently without having to keep an actual chicken. And in fact scientists have since figured out how to grow tiny nuggets of lab meat and say it will one day be possible to produce steaks in vats, sans any livestock.

It continues to be believed by some that Edward VIII’s affair with Wallis Simpson was universally unpopular, uniting the political establishment, the aristocracy and the people in a single view, when, in fact, all of the contemporary evidence suggests the contrary.

Here’s the premise upon which Chrome OS builds: Web apps are the worst form of multi-platform applications, except all those other forms that have been tried from time to time. With profuse apologies to Winston Churchill, it’s a good premise. I didn’t even much get the latter part until embarrassingly recently. What I’m wondering is: will [...]

A Major's Perspective is one of my favorite blogs. I particularly enjoy the quote of the day because he frequently references people that I have not studied in depth.
