NOAA Climate Criminals Can't Cover Their Tracks Fast Enough
Posted on November 7, 2015 by stevengoddard
NOAA's climate criminals claim sea level is rising almost twice as fast as their sea level people do.
NOAA's climate people claim that sea level is rising 3.2 mm/year. Their sea level people say it is just over half that.
the absolute global sea level rise is believed to be 1.7-1.8 millimeters/year.
Sea Level Trends – Global Regional Trends
As I reported earlier, NOAA made the sea level page above disappear yesterday. But it won't do them any good, because it is on the web archive and because anyone can look at their actual sea level data.
NOAA has 240 tide gauges globally, and 86% of them show less sea level rise than the claimed average of 3.2 mm/year. The average of all of the NOAA tide gauges is 1.14 mm/year, just over one third of the NOAA climate claims.

Make no mistake about it, NOAA's climate people are engaged in fraud.

Steven, I'm guessing you used a bookmark. If you go to the website and click on the Historic Data selection, you get this message:
ErrorCO-OPS is currently operating in offline (non-database) mode. Only the last 72 hours of observations for real-time stations are available at this time. No station information or historic data are available. CO-OPS will return to normal operations as soon as possible, and regrets any inconvenience this outage may cause. For more information, please contact our user services group at CO-OPS User Services.
Please see our real-time active currents stations.
You should learn to ask for help before going off on a tangent.
That has nothing to do with this topic. Their site is up, they removed the page showing 1.7 mm/year. Your endless FUD is sickening.
I have sent a query to NOAA on your behalf.
AndyG55 says:
roflmao..
You really are a queerie !!
What did you ask them…
did you ask them why and who is paying them to fabricate a warming trend..
did you ask them for some actually proof that CO2 causes warming.?
or did you ask them if they could send you some more brain-washing kool-aide. !
Andy, I asked NOAA where I can find the data and why isn't it where it was earlier. Then I looked around a bit and discovered the database is offline, and NOAA apparently knows about it and is working on getting it back online. Apparently neither Steven nor you thought to be proactive and ask NOAA. Now, it's the weekend, so we probably won't get an answer for a few days, but NOAA has acknowledged receipt of my query.
Yawn..
Funny how often they go off-line when a page with "inconvenient" data is linked to. 😉
But the data is there on the internet.. it takes a very big effort to erase it completely.
Now.. do you have something actually worthwhile to say ?
Andy, I have refuted Steven's claim of fraud by showing that the database is offline. I don't have to say anymore until Steven admits his error. He has also made a second, more egregious error, which you appear to have been fooled by. He is using tide gauge data that doesn't have the vertical land movement taken out. He is using this data to compare to the global average sea level, which is computed from data where the vertical land movement has been taken out. The two datasets aren't comparable unless and until the vertical land movement is removed.
Wow !!!!!! Martin got an auto-reply !!
Must be serious !!
roflmao !!!
"I don't have to say anymore "
Good.. because you are a waste of time and space. !!
Martin, the stable land sea level data shows an almost constant rate of less than 2mm/year.
NO acceleration.
NO CO2 warming signature.
Get used to it. 🙂
You're wrong, Andy. I have explained why.
The REAL tide data proves that to be the case, no matter what fabrications NOAA wants to add to it.
Again…..Why are you so scared of 3.2mm/year ??????
(especially when you know the real value is probably about half that)
Andy, the real value is 3.2 mm/year.
No, the real value is well less than 2mm/year.
The 3.2mm/year is a NOAA fabrication, just like GISS, GHCN etc etc
Andy, have a look at the this page: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/
It explains all the things you clearly don't understand about computing global average sea level.
Colorado Uni.. now you really have me laughing. 🙂
Paid apostles of the AGW agenda. !!!
Here is some research from someone who actually know about this stuff..
http://scienceandpublicpolicy.org/blog_watch/sea_level_is_not_rising.html
Andy, you are doing the same thing Steven is doing. You can't prove fraud by assuming fraud. You can't dismiss this institution http://sealevel.colorado.edu/ by assuming the scientists who work there are committing fraud.
Now you are claiming that CU, AVISO, CSIRO, NASA GSFC, and NOAA are ALL committing fraud. You are claiming that ALL the scientists studying sea level rise at ALL these institutions have gotten ALL their research wrong, and they did it on purpose because they are government employees. And you are claiming that this one guy, Nils-Axel Mörner, has got it right. Can you see how silly you look saying that? What do you base your belief on?
Glad you mentioned the word fraud..
Obviously on your mind.
Andy, here is the explanation for why your understanding is wrong:
http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
I repeat , because you are obviously very hard of understanding…
The stable tide data shows a trend of less than 2mm/year.
It is only the erroneous fabrications of NOAA, picked up by the rest of the cultists, that shows a massively scary 3.2mm/year.
Quick.. head for the hills..
oh wait.. all the climate glitterati buy at near sea level…. funny about that. 😉
This is the REAL DATA.. not from UColorado's fabrications.
See that middle section.. that is the stable tide gauges and they average well less than 2mm/year
You can repeat your lies as often as you like, but NOAA's own data and own statement say that the sea level rise is well less than 2mm/year.
Andy, this explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
Martin, Please notify us when NOAA re-instate the hidden page. that says….
the absolute global sea level rise is believed to be 1.7-1.8 millimeters/year
Rest assured, I will, Andy. Meanwhile, this explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
menicholas says:
Martin, you are truly a broken record of lies and warmista propaganda.
You seem to have been assigned to troll this website/blog, and sow lies in a systematic way.
But you will find your time is completely wasted, as everyone who reads here regularly knows the truth, and is working hard to spread the word.
You are on a sinking ship martin, and you may want to think about finding a survival suit and manning a lifeboat.
I suggest you contact your handlers and report your utter failure to sway a single solitary soul with your phony BS.
wait, they actually reply to your emails? I had sent the NOAA 3 emails requesting clarification of the charts that SG and other's post, particularly how the charts were apparently changed .. I needed a response from them because I was writing an article for the local newspaper about the maunder minimum and the preponderance of the evidence seems to show cooling since appox 2000.. I got nothing, you would think they would have an entire section dedicated to responding to questions about old/new graphs, they don't and neither do sites like skepticalscience skeptical science does not take this issue head-on. because then they would be forced to upload the NOAA.NASA, IPCC's old charts onto their own site and they don't wanna do that because that would turn the average person into a 'skeptic'
It does have to do with this topic, Steven, because the data you are missing is in the database that is currently offline.
Odd about that.. as soon as SG links to it.. off-line it goes. 😉
But that "inconvenient" data is still available.
And it shows that the general sea level rise, according to NOAA tide gauges, averages somewhere LESS THAN 2mm/year.
How SCARY is that , hey !!!!
Are you PANICKING yet, Martin ?
Andy, you can't use the data the way you are using the data. You have to take out the vertical land movement. Your remarks are incorrect.
No Martin. your remarks are incorrect.
The sea average tidal sea level rise shows a rate of LESS THAN 2mm/year.
Can you keep up with that?
Andy, you have to read the explanation of what the data is. The explanation is on this page: http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/sltrends.shtml Scroll down to Products. Read that paragraph. It explains why Steven and got this all wrong.
Their own data proves that SG is correct,
Answer me again.. why is even the fabricated 3.2mm/year so darn SCARY to you ?
>Their own data proves that SG is correct,
Nope. Steven got it wrong because he is using data that contains vertical land movement.
>Answer me again.. why is even the fabricated 3.2mm/year so darn SCARY to you ?
It isn't fabricated and it isn't scary. It is measured by satellite altimeters. It is problematic because it is causing the number of flood days per year to increase for cities like Miami and Boston.
Again, I invite everybody to got to
http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/sltrends.shtml
click on Global and see that the vast majority of stable tidal gauges are well less than 3mm/year.
the average of 3.2mm/year is a FABRICATION.
Martin knows this, but is trying cover up the fact with bluster and other BS.
And, have a look at this page. It explains all the things you clearly don'tunderstand about computing global average sea level: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/
"causing the number of flood days per year to increase for cities like Miami and Boston.'
ROFLAMO..
So these places can't manage a sea level rise of 3.2mm/year (or in reality, about half that)
That is SERIOUSLY PATHETIC !!!!
perhaps they shouldn't take so much water from underground.. then they wouldn't be sinking !!
Oh wait.. you didn't know that, did you.. !
Andy, the number of flood days per year is increasing in both Boston and Miami. Have a look at this website: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/ It explains everything you clearly don't understand about computing global average sea level.
Here is some research form someone who actually know about this stuff..
glad you mentioned fraud.
I would have used the word "collusion" or brain-washing or paid simpering.
The stable tide gauges show less than 2mm/year.
"What do you base your belief on?"
On the tide data. not some NOAA fabrication.
the stable tide data shows less than 2mm/year.. and there is absolutely NOTHING you or anyone else can do about it, no matter how much you prance about and bluster. !
Wrong Martin.
Look at the REAL DATA
See that middle 2/3, that is the stable tide gauges, and they average well less than 2mm/year.
No amount of Colorado fabrication can get around that fact.
NOAA's statement on their "removed" page was an over-estimate'
Its actually LESS than that according to their own data.
You are comparing incomparable things, Andy. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
Poor boy, you actually need to download and read this publication.
Then you might have some vague idea what you are talking about.
Until then you are stuck with the paid propaganda from UC, which is contradictory to NOAA's own statement and data.
Your choice.. remain ignorant or learn.
I know what you will choose.. 😉
I have done, Andy. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
They are all linked in together using the same fabricated nonsense.
the real data from long term stable tide gauges shows well less than 2mm/year.
They can adjust and fabricate all they want, but the data is the data.
You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
Bob123 says:
"It isn't fabricated and it isn't scary. It is measured by satellite altimeters." So you warmists trust the satelite data regarding tides, but the satelite data that shows temps have been steady for 18+ years……….not so much.
Tony Heller obviously has some people worried.
One can only wonder why they sent Martin, ineffectual troll that he is.
Menicholas,
The Warnistra have very few scientifically trained people to dedicate to trolling. They have already tried David the Appalling and Jan Pearl before the witzless and gotten know where. Hope for Peace was really fun to play with, though it isn't nice to bearbait the mentally impaired.
The problem they have is most amateur skeptics have good scientific and engineering training and are much better informed than the emotive liberal arts types they can get as trolls. That is why they have had to resort to banning skeptic comments and refusing to print skeptic articles.
The data shows I am right.
Adjustments and fabrications are the mainstay of the climate scammer,…. and you keep falling for it.
The data is the data.. End of story.

This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
LOOK AT THE REAL DATA.. Can you at least try?
What does one thing you said have to do with the post, what the tide gauges show, and the absolute SL rise reported by NASA?
David, Steven is claiming fraud by NOAA because a web page he uses isn't accessible. The reason the web page isn't accessible is the database system it comes from is offline. A missing web page is not evidence of fraud, especially when the database system that generates it is offline.
Not what he said. He has shown how they consistently adjust the data upwards for bogus reasons; such as the assumption that the ocean basin is increasing, and other unexplained changes like the linked blink graphics. There are several peer reviewed studies that show no increase in SL rise rate, and the tide gauges are likely more accurate for numerous reasons. Yes, the land rises and sinks, depending on where one is. Have you read Dr. Morner's SL report? He is one of the most published L specialists in the field.
Martin, you are either a paid troll, or the most gullible fool to show up here in quite some time.
Which is it Martin…liar or fool?
You can avoid answering me forever if you wish.
Everyone reading here knows that you have not refuted ONE SINGLE FACT!
All you have is mealy-mouth nonsense and endless repetition of the same silly crap.
You do not even appear to actually have any knowledge, as every post you have made, to date, is a cut and paste link to some or another attempt at misdirection.
Dang, you are really a seriously failure…totally and completely lame as a warmista troll.
Better call for back-up.
Tell ya what Martin,
How about you keep an eye on that page and tell us all when the page that states..
comes back on line. 😉
Oh.. that value looks like its less than 2mm…. whatdyaknow ! 😉
Martin.. Ths is the REAL DATA.. not UColorado's fabrication.
See that middle section.. that is the stable tide gauges and they average well less than 2mm/year.
That is the REALITY that you are too brain-dead to see.
One can go to this page and see just how many of the tide gauges are LESS THAN 3mm/yr
http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/
Will this page now ALSO disappear.
How very inconvenient NOAA's own data is to their story. !!! 😉
The stable long term tide gauges show ABSOLUTELY NO ACCELERATION, (maybe a hint of deceleration.)
Just like the satellite temperature data, there is ABSOLUTELY NO CO2 WARMING signature.
This is a FACT that they cannot twist or adjust their way around.
Steven, the data you are using from the 240 tide gauges doesn't have the vertical land motion taken out. The explanation is on this page: http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/sltrends.shtml
You can't use this data to compare to the global average sea level rise, which is computed from data where the vertical land movement has been removed.
Yes, and as SG has shown.. the vast majority are less than the 3.2mm/year that NOAA propagandises.
Even at the fabricated 3.2mm/year……
I mean.. wow.. SCARY !!!!
No, Andy, he hasn't shown anything, because the data he is using still contain the vertical land movement. The 3.2 mm/year global average is computed from satellite data, which doesn't have vertical land movement in it.
It is referenced to an area that has been shown to be sinking. So yes it does have an erroneous vertical land measurement built into it, as well as many false fabrications and adjustments.
The Tidal sea level data does not show any acceleration.
It cannot be adjusted because it is relied upon for shipping purposes.
>It cannot be adjusted because it is relied upon for shipping purposes.
Correct. But when it is used to compute global average sea level, the vertical land movement is taken out. That's the part Steven and you got wrong.
The most stable land tide gauges give a value of less than 2mm/year.
Live with that fact..
or scare yourself shitless with the erroneous 3.2mm/year.. putz !!!
Martin, you are a stupid turd. It doesn't matter whether the vertical land movements are taken out, because the land movements are stable and not accelerating or decerating, so if the sea levels (without the land movements removed) are not accelerating, then sea level rise is not accelerating.
There is no vertical land movement in Hawaii, because it's not part of a continent. There is land erosion over millions of years, but that's so slow it's negligible. In Hawaii, sea level rise is 1.5 mm/yr and not accelerating, and we can use that as a rise-ometer for the whole world because it's in the middle of the ocean and not affected by anything. Not even the El-Nino
http://tidesandcurrents.noaa.gov/sltrends/sltrends_station.shtml?stnid=1612340
Read that, you idiot.
No, Morgan, you can't. Here is the explanation:
No bozo.
The middle 2/3 or so is where the land isn't moving much….
and its ALL much less than 2mm/year.
As NOAA over-state on their missing page.
Actually the real value is more likely less than 1 – 1.5 mm/year.
Hey Moron, do you understand the difference between sea level rise and acceleration of sea level rise? I really think you don't.
Calling me names doesn't prove your argument or Stevens. Let's just agree that I am a moron and stop calling me names. I do understand the difference between speed and acceleration. It has nothing to do with showing Steven's claims to be wrong. He is claiming fraud because a website is offline.
Martin.. look at the REAL DATA.. not UColorado's fabrications.
He is claiming fraud because he has the guts to call it like it is!
NOAA is a political organization now, a collection of paid political hacks who care not a whit about science or accuracy.
MS equals Paid NOAA troll maybe after a couple of postings send him sideways, although allowing him here really helps as it shows how XXXXXX stupid they are LOL and actually helps the skeptic case hahahaha
Its bizarre that he has no understanding of real measurements and data.
But that is pretty standard for the brain-dead alarmista.. although this one at least has a little bit of sense and can admit that even the fabricated UC numbers are not the least bit scary.
down here, we have 0.65mm/year.
No acceleration.. no CO2 warming signal.
In fact not one of the longer term stable tide gauges shows ANY acceleration whatsoever.
No CO2 signature at all. None , Nada…. zip !!!
Martin Smith you are incorrect the sea level is FALLING! the only reason it is shown as rising is because it is 'adjusted'
Mid to late Holocene sea-level reconstruction of Southeast Vietnam using beachrock and beach-ridge deposits
….backshore deposits along the tectonically stable south-eastern Vietnamese coast document Holocene sea level changes…..reconstructed for the last 8000 years….The rates of sea-level rise decreased sharply after the rapid early Holocene rise and stabilized at a rate of 4.5 mm/year between 8.0 and 6.9 ka. Southeast Vietnam beachrocks reveal that the mid-Holocene sea-level highstand slightly above + 1.4 m was reached between 6.7 and 5.0 ka, with a peak value close to + 1.5 m around 6.0 ka….
Translation the sea level was up to 1.5 meters higher than today in a tectonically stable area ~5000 years ago to 2000 years ago.

THE HOLOCENE DEPOSITIONAL SYSTEM
Partially abutted against the Pleistocene barrier island/lagoonal system III, there is the Holocene depositional system. This unit is attributable to the Santos Transgression of Suguio & Martin (1978), along the State of São Paulo coastline, or to the Last Transgression of Bittencourt et al. (1979) along the State of Bahia coastline, being similar to the barrier island/lagoonal system IV of Villwock et al. (1986), along the State of Rio Grande do Sul coastline.
This system is related to the post-glacial transgressive episode whose culmination stage was attained about 5.1 ky BP, when a barrier island alignment was formed parallel to the shoreline, while drainage net was drowned. The subsequent regressive episode promoted the barrier island progradation following the lagoonal basin silting.
The paleoshorelines limited by ancient cliffs carved within Pleistocene terraces, presently representing the inner limit of the Holocene terrace, shows that this sea-level reached about 4m above the present one. Several terraces situated in different altitudes, and truncation of past morphological features nowadays observed on Holocene deposits, as well as along present lagoonal margins suggest that small scale sea-level oscillations occurred during the last 5 ky….

This study shows a sea level highstand ~ 4 meters above the present level about ~5000 years ago. With sea level oscillating since then. Not only has the sea levels have dropped since the Holocene Optimum the evidence shows that "warmer paleotemperatures were favourable for great proliferation of mollusks in the area" Santa Catarina Brazil is at latitude 27.2500°S and is tectonically stable.
Notice the area where Roman sea ports are inland is tectonically stable according to NASA.

For the areas occupied by the Romans it was pretty close to zero or actually sinking! "..the pivot point is rather abrupt; Scotland is still rising due to the rebound effect which is correspondingly sinking England 2 millimetres into the North Sea each year."
A NASA model of current surface elevation change due to post-glacial rebound and the reloading of sea basins with water. Canada, Northern Europe, and Antarctica are all currently rebounding at a rate of a few millimetres per year. More water in the oceans as a result of ice sheet melting is slowly depressing sea basins. Satellites are used to observe differences over time. http://basementgeographer.com/glacial-isostatic-adjustment/
Notice the pivot point in the UK is ~ 55° N and the great lakes ~ 45° N which is one of the reasons why Southeast Vietnam ~10°N, the southern Arabian Gulf, ~ 23°N, and Santa Catarina, Brazil, 27° S are tectonically stable areas.

VALIDATION BY ALTERNATE STUDIES
GLACIAL ADVANCE
Ice free Arctic Ocean, an Early Holocene analogue
Extensive systems of wave generated beach ridges along the North Greenland coasts show that these areas once saw seasonally open water. In addition to beach ridges, large amounts of striated boulders in and on the marine sediments from the same period also indicate that the ocean was open enough for ice bergs to drift along the shore and drop their loads. Presently the North Greenland coastline is permanently beleaguered by pack ice, and ice bergs are very rare and locked up in the sea ice. Predictions of the rapidly decreasing sea ice in the Arctic Ocean generally point to this area as the last to become ice free in summer. We therefore suggest that the occurrence of wave generated shores and abundant ice berg dropped boulders indicate that the Arctic Ocean was nearly free of sea ice in the summer at the time when they were formed. The beach ridges occur as isostatically raised "staircases", and C14-dated curves for relative sea level change show that they were formed in the Early Holocene. A large set of samples of molluscs from beach ridges and marine sediments were collected in the summer of 2007, and are presently being dated to give a precise dating of the ice free interval. Preliminary results indicate that it fell within the interval from c. 8.5 to c. 6 ka – being progressively shorter from south to north. We therefore conclude that for a period in the Early Holocene, probably for a millenium or more, the Arctic Ocean was free of sea ice at least for shorter periods in the summer….
Temperature and precipitation history of the Arctic
…. Solar energy reached a summer maximum (9% higher than at present) ~11 ka ago and has been decreasing since then, primarily in response to the precession of the equinoxes. The extra energy elevated early Holocene summer temperatures throughout the Arctic 1-3°C above 20th century averages, enough to completely melt many small glaciers throughout the Arctic, although the Greenland Ice Sheet was only slightly smaller than at present. Early Holocene summer sea ice limits were substantially smaller than their 20th century average, and the flow of Atlantic water into the Arctic Ocean was substantially greater. As summer solar energy decreased in the second half of the Holocene, glaciers re-established or advanced, sea ice expanded…
A new approach for reconstructing glacier variability based on lake sediments recording input from more than one glacier January 2012
…. A multi-proxy numerical analysis demonstrates that it is possible to distinguish a glacier component in the ~ 8000-yr-long record, based on distinct changes in grain size, geochemistry, and magnetic composition…. This signal is …independently tested through a mineral magnetic provenance analysis of catchment samples. Minimum glacier input is indicated between 6700–5700 cal yr BP, probably reflecting a situation when most glaciers in the catchment had melted away, whereas the highest glacier activity [growth] is observed around 600 and 200 cal yr BP. During the local Neoglacial interval (~ 4200 cal yr BP until present), five individual periods of significantly reduced glacier extent are identified at ~ 3400, 3000–2700, 2100–2000, 1700–1500, and ~ 900 cal yr BP….

The highest glacier growth started 600 years ago prior to that most glaicers had melted away.
THIRD METHOD OF VALIDATION
Sea Level Changes Past Records and Future Expectations
For the last 40-50 years strong observational facts indicate virtually stable sea level conditions. The Earth's rate of rotation records an [average] acceleration from 1972 to 2012, contradicting all claims of a rapid global sea level rise, and instead suggests stable, to slightly falling, sea levels.
Have they corrected for the 18.6-yearly Luna Nodal cycle? Linear trend lines on sinusoidal curves are very time dependent.
The Dutch who are the most concerned about actual sea level rise have found the cycle.
Local Relative Sea Level
To determine the relevance of the nodal cycle at the Dutch coast, a spectral analysis was carried out on the yearly means of six main tidal gauges for the period 1890–2008. The data were corrected for atmospheric pressure variation using an inverse barometer correction. The spectral density shows a clear peak at the 18.6 -year period (Figure 1). The multiple linear regression yields a sea-level rise (b1) of 0.19 +/- 0.015 cm y-1 (95%), an amplitude (A) of 1.2 +/- 0.92 cm, and a phase of -1.16 (with 1970 as 0), resulting in a peak in February 2005 (Figure 2). No significant acceleration (inclusion of b2) was found.
Coastal management requires estimates of the rate of sealevel rise. The trends found locally for the Dutch coast are the same as have been found in the past 50 years (Deltacommissie, 1960; Dillingh et al., 1993). Even though including the nodal cycle made it more likely that the high-level scenarios would become apparent in the observations, no acceleration in the rate of sea-level rise was found. The higher, recent rise (van den Hurk et al., 2007) coincides with the up phase of the nodal cycle. For the period 2005 through 2011, the Dutch mean sea-level is expected to drop because the lunar cycle is in the down phase. This shows the importance of including the 18.6-year cycle in regional sea-level estimates. Not doing so on a regional or local scale for decadal length projections leads to inaccuracies.

Gail, the global mean sea level is not falling.
Ignore the data all you want , stooge.
You are looking more and more like a brain-washed moron.
Gail, your claim requires me to believe that all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr is wrongt. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
They all use the same fabrication.
The REAL data contradicts their LIES.
What have you got against REAL DATA.?
Why must you rely solely on adjustments and fabrications..
…..its all you have, isn't it.
I only use the real data, Andy. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
CSIRO, NASA etc are all known climate data fabricators.. its all they are capable of now.
LOOK AT THE REAL DATA !!!!
No, Andy, they are not. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
NIOAA's own data and statement say that the sea level rise is less than 2mm/year,
yet you "believe" some rabid alarmist climate fabrication site..
LOOK AT THE REAL DATA.
Andy, you are comparing apples and oranges again. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
There is NO ACCELERATION in any stable tide gauge.
None whatsoever.
No CO2 signature..
The real data shows a continued steady rise somewhere between 0 and 2mm per year.
that is what the REAL DATA shows.
You can accept the REAL DATA or go with the fabrications..
I know which you will choose… because you are brain-washed drone.
You are still comparing apples and oranges, Andy. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr.

Global sea level is rising because we came out of the LIA (little ice age) around 150 years ago. The sea level rise has not accelerated in 150 years. Tell us why, Martin.
Then tell us why the glaciers have been melting for 150 years (the glaciers that formed during the LIA).
Yes, Morgan, sea level has been rising all along, and the glaciers have been receding all along. But both at a much slower pace than they are changing now.
That's horse manure.
The current GMSL rate is 3.2 mm/year, which is much higher than the average rate for the last century.
Yes, that one doesn't invalidate what I wrote.
You are a schmuck. You use satellites to measure current rate and tide gauges for the rest of the century. Do you play pool with a broken cue stick?
Only the fabricated dat shows a rate of 3.2mm/year.
the tide gauges shows a steady rise with no acceleration.
The chnage from REAL DATA to fabrications specifically designed to increase the rate is what you are being conned by, because you are a mathematical and scientific illiterate..
There are no fabricated data, Andy. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
I don't know what you are trying to prove, Morgan.
Mt Baker glaciers have this pattern, as do many other northern glaciers.
So awkward when FACTS and REAL DATA get in the way of the alarmista LIES, isn't it. 😉
LOOK AT THE REAL DATA.. I dare you..
or is that beyond your ability.?
You can only parrot what some alarmista fabricator tells you..
So sad that you don't have the ability to LOOK AT REAL DATA and think for yourself.
I have looked at the data. All the data. Not just your cherry-picked subset. You demand that I believe that ALL the scientists at ALL these institutions are on the take. You can't be serious that an unreviewed paper by one guy can overturn all the science of all the scientists at CU: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, AVISO: 3.3 ± 0.6 mm/yr, CSIRO: 3.3 ± 0.4 mm/yr, NASA GSFC: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr, and NOAA: 3.2 ± 0.4 mm/yr. This explains why you are wrong: http://sealevel.colorado.edu/faq#n3134
I am showing how tide gauges make a straight line up to 1993 when they switched to satellite altimetry, which also has a straight line, but a different slope. Hence, the broken cue stick.
I can't verify anything about your graph. I can't verify where the data are from, which adjustments have been made, nothing. And I certainly won't take your word for anything, for the obvious reasons.
I spell it out pretty clearly here, with all sources:

No one requires you to believe anything Martin, except perhaps your own alarmist handlers.

We are just repeating ourselves now. Let's end it. I'll move on.
Here is Fort Denison tide chart from NOAA.
Now, I defy you to find one single long term tide chart that shows an acceleration.
LOOK AT THE REAL DATA.. IF YOU DARE.
Of course you are repeating yourself. Its all you have.
And you are perpetually wrong.. like a brain-dead parrot.
Produce some real data.. do you have any , or are you stuck with climate fraud fabrications which have zero data to back them up.
Even NOAA's own statement.. now removed of course, says quote..
Even this is an overestimation using their data.
pmc47025 says:
Wow, miss a day… Martin,
1) A CYA sticker (dog ate my database) does not refute a fraud claim.
2) There are a number of studies showing ~1.8mm sea level rise since just before the pre-industrial era with no increase in rise rate since humans started pumping CO2 into the atmosphere. One study is here: http://kaares.ulapland.fi/home/hkunta/jmoore/pdfs/Jevrejevaetal2013GPChange.pdf
3) The 3.2mm/year in the NOAA report shows a mostly linear rise since 1993 as measured by satellites. That report COULD be correct, but not relevant. Comparing satellite (post 1993) with tide gauge data (pre 1993) doesn't make sense. To detect a change in rise rate the same reference (tide gauges) must be used throughout the period in question.
4) Sea level has changed >100m over the last 15,000 years or so. 99.9% of that change occurred before humans discovered how to control fire. Taking a ~22 year snapshot of data and claiming evidence of a "CO2 signal" is madness (or fraud if you prefer). "Big Obtuse" is very good at ignoring pre-industrial climate changes.
rah says:
It really is amazing just how variable the land-sea interface can be over a relatively short distance. For example the stretch of Normandy coast the allies landed on June, 6th, 1944. The landing at Sword Beach on the eastern end of the landing area was scheduled to occur nearly 40 minutes after the landing at Utah Beach on the western end just because of the difference in the tides. The distance between the western and eastern extremes of those two landing beaches is only about 85 km.
Martin Smith says: "… it is causing the number of flood days per year to increase for cities like Miami and Boston."
BULL. Typical I have a hammer so everything looks like a nail mentality.
Florida has been pumping out ground water that means they have the same problem as New Orleans.
Stable Ground
When New Orleans was founded in the early 18th century, it occupied the high, dry land along the river's natural levees. The passage to the lake could be made by boat with a short portage; and the lake offered access to the gulf via Lake Borgne.
The cypress swamps between the river and the lake lay just above sea level, but they were too wet to occupy permanently, and until the early twentieth century, the city's development was confined to the stable high ground along the Mississippi….
In the first half of the twentieth century, mechanical pumping technology enabled the draining and subdivision of the city's back-of-town swamps. The reclamation of these soggy areas had an unexpected consequence: it made ground levels fall.
This process, called subsidence, occurred through different mechanisms. Organic matter in the soil oxidized, so soil volume was reduced. As pumping extracted water from the ground, soil particles collapsed onto each other. The removal of the cypress swamps brought an end to soil creation through organic decomposition.…..
http://www.guttertogulf.com/Why-is-New-Orleans-sinking
<b.BOSTON
Boston, (like NYC) is built on fill. With heavy buildings fill will compress and sink. (My *&^! contractor did this to me after I told him not to. The building on the fill half sank causing all sorts of major problems and a $100,000 loss.)
The Back Bay area of Boston was filled in by Asa G. Sheldon (1788-1870) of Wilmington Massachusetts. His 1862 autobiography Life of Asa G. Sheldon, Wilmington Farmer details how he was commissioned to take down Pemberton Hill Boston and use it as fill on the north side of Causeway Street.
His ad for twenty yoke of Oxen:
http://www.mocavo.com/Life-of-Asa-G-Sheldon-Wilmington-Farmer/723499/189
…The 1829 map above shows the hill – then called Pemberton – surrounded by streets but still intact. The property was famous as the home of merchant Gardiner Greene and his terraced gardens, and for the view of the harbor from the estate….
Gardiner Greene died in 1832, and his estate and the other that made up the hill property were bought by Patrick Tracy Jackson. Jackson then hired Wilmington teamster Asa Sheldon to level the hill. Starting in May of 1835, Sheldon used 126 oxen and 250 men to remove 65 feet of elevation off the top of the hill. Of the work crew, 60 were Yankees and 190 Irishmen, with most of the Yankees being teamsters driving wagons, and all of the Irish manning shovels. In five months, the job would be finished and new plots laid out.
In 1835, Sheldon used 126 oxen and 250 men and in five months filled in the nasty stinking sea marsh at the edge of Boston. 180 years later we have wimps like Martin wining and whinging about a fingernails width of sea level rise a year during this modern warm period. Of course the sea level will fall again as the climate cools as it is showing signs of doing.
If you don't want your feet to get wet DON"T BUILD AT WATER LEVEL!…SHEESH
Of all the natural hazards like earthquakes, blizzards, tornadoes and hurricanes, flooding is very easy to guard against. Only the brain dead build in flood zones like river flood plains and right next to the ocean. In earlier times these idiots would be awarded the Darwin Award as they deserve. Now we get to foot the bill via raise insurance premiums.
Exactly Gail.
You have nailed it.
One can go all the way back to the Bible and find the admonishment that only a fool builds his house on sand.
Sea level rise is a non-issue for coastal dwellers, as nearly every inch of coastline will be struck by a catastrophic coastal storm before the current rate of rise ever causes a single house to be inundated. And that is IF sea level continues to rise at the same snail like pace as it has for over a century.
Storms, not sea level rise, is what will cause destruction of oceanfront property.
And the timing of the tides when each storm hits will continue to be the major factor it has always been.
If sea level was a real threat, rather than political garbage, why would we be rebuilding storm damaged real estate as fast as possible?
Why in heck did we rebuild New Orleans (and not correct the problems with the levees.)
Also the Dutch have proved for centuries that you can deal with the sea with good engineering.
Dave G says:
Gail nailed it! Martin is a 20 something who has heard everything about AGW and nothing else! but us elders know you "don't build near a river unless your ready for that 100 year storm" the LSM pounds AGW causes flooding! "it's the storms stupid, Martin"

Might want to archive that page too, Steve…
Hello Gail Combs – I am impressed by your scholarship. Regarding higher sea levels in the recent millenia past, do you know anything about the raised beach lines evident on the shoreline of the Bay of Campeche, Mexico. A very good example can be seen on google maps satellite view near the town of Frontera, which is on the south side of the bay. One can see them at many locations around the bay. These appear to me to document a significant fall in ocean level, but is it Holocene? Ted
The whole coastline of NSW Australia has rock platforms that show that sea levels were 1-2m higher some time in the not too distant past.
Ted all it takes is a bit of a search. (You want to use the word highstand) Unfortunately the actual study is paywalled but it looks like what you are seeing is from the Eemain highstand but I can not really tell.

This one had an interesting find:
Satellite altimeter data show that portions of the interiors of the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets thickened between 1992 and 2003 (Johannessen et al., 2005; Davis et al., 2005). In the case of Antarctica, this is estimated to have reduced the rate of sea- level rise by 0.12 Ϯ 0.02 mm/yr (Davis et al., 2005).
Thanks Gail! I had done a bit of a search but had come up dry. My background includes glacial geomorphology and I have had fun tracing elevated beach ridges on the Door peninsula and Washington Island, Lake Michigan, where the evidence of both falling lake levels early post glacial and isostatic rebound from glacial unloading is plainly evident. Interestingly, recently falling lake levels in Lake Michigan were taken as evidence of global warming but over just a few months the lake has risen 44 inches and is back to levels of 15 years ago. It is somewhat ironic that the ferry company got the navigation channel on the Washington Island side dredged deeper a couple of years ago just before the rebound in water levels. You can still see the dredge on the google earth satellite view. West side of the big bay on the south side of the island.
And here I am just a lowly chemist with a major interest in geology.
I am a chemist because I wanted to eat and not because I like chemistry. I much rather read papers in geology or biology than in chemistry. At Uni, I got kicked out of a grad level genetics class I stumbled into by mistake and then started auditing. I was looking for a place to study between classes instead of hoofing it back to the dorm. Fascinating stuff.

oz4caster says:
I read the CU FAQ cited by Martin Smith and saw the following:
"The global mean sea level (GMSL) we estimate is an average over the oceans (limited by the satellite inclination to +/- 66 degrees latitude), and it cannot be used to predict relative sea level changes along the coasts. As an average, it indicates the general state of the sea level across the oceans and not any specific location."
"GMSL is a good indicator of changes in the volume of water in the oceans due to mass influx (e.g., land ice melt) and density changes (e.g., thermal expansion), and is therefore of interest in detecting climate change."
Two points:
1) Sea levels along the coast are what matters to most people and when most people hear the message "sea levels are rising" they assume sea levels along the coast are rising by the amount indicated. This is not at all true with GMSL. It does not accurately represent the sea level changes along the coasts as does the tide data cited by AndyG55. For direct impacts on humans, it is the tide data that matters.
2) In the context of detecting climate change using GMSL, the accuracy of the GMSL estimates is critical. I suspect the accuracy of the GMSL estimate for any particular time is not more than about +/- 0.5 meter and if I am right, then any trends less than this amount are in the noise range and mean nothing.
The good news: The Whitehouse Itself Undercut the AGW Scam!
AGW was an attempt to end economic inequality by limiting the size of the per capita CO2 exhaust around the globe. This noble cause failed because it is based on a falsehood: THE SUN – NOT CO2 – CONTROLS EARTH'S CLIMATE.
It was a Herculean task to return society to contact with reality, but we all tried. Earlier this week the Whitehouse finally admitted the biggest threat to the survival of civilization is NOT AGW, but a SOLAR EMP:
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3302185/White-House-preparing-catastrophic-solar-flares-wipe-power-world-months-bringing-end-modern-civilization-know-it.html
The communications and electrical power grids of modern civilization are NOT NOW shielded from natural eruptions of our pulsar-centered Sun because politicians sought to end a worldwide economic inequality by convincing the public AGW causes climate change.
The communications and electrical power grids of modern civilization must now be shielded from eruptions of our pulsar-centered Sun.
"SOLAR ENERGY" https://www.researchgate.net/publication/280133563
Dr. Kenneth M. Towe of the Smithsonian Institution may have carried that message back to the Whitehouse after a length, and brutally honest, discussion of the lack of convincing evidence for AGW on ResearchGate:
https://www.researchgate.net/post/Is_there_convincing_evidence_of_AGW
If so, we are all indebted to Dr. Towe for informing the Whitehouse of the real danger to modern civilization – A SOLAR EMP; NOT AGW.

Heron Lake State Park, NM
Monday, August 5, 2002 - 8:30am by Lolo
120 miles and 3 hours from our last stop - 2 night stay
Rafting across Heron LakeTo this day, Herb's eyes glaze over with a dreamy look at the mere mention of Heron Lake. First, there was its natural beauty--picture a gorgeous mountain lake set among tall pine trees. Then there was the incredible cocktail opportunities--sunset views over the lake right from our campsite. Lastly, and probably most importantly, was the solitude and tranquility--we shared the entire lake with only one other camper, and he was always out on his sailboat. Heron Lake is not for those that need a lot of excitement and activities (which is probably why it wasn't crowded), but for us, at this point in time, it was paradise. My only problem was going to be convincing Herb to ever leave.
The lake had a no-wake regulation (which probably accounted for its tranquility), making it a perfect place for us to use our Avon inflatable boat with its 6 h.p. motor. We launched the boat right from our campsite, which was set back from the lake about 100 yards. Our campsite should have been right on the lake, but a multi-year drought had made the lake levels terribly low. This, unfortunately, made the approach to the lake quite difficult because the new shoreline was solid muck. We managed to get the boat in without too much mess and putted over to the island in the middle of the lake.
Boys on uninhabited islandIt was great just being out on the lake--big vistas, crystal blue New Mexico sky, and just one sailboat in sight (our neighbor). We did swim, although the lake waters were cool. After all, we were over 7,000 feet above sea level.
That night we barbecued while the kids gathered twigs and branches for a campfire. After watching a perfect sunset over the lake, we ate our dinner by the fire which the kids had built. It was just so unbelievably peaceful here--a pleasant respite from our normally hectic lives.
Lolo of Heron LakeThat night we were awakened by the most incredible thunderstorm I have ever experienced in my life. After one particularly loud crash of thunder, Herb and I bolted upright and looked out the back window behind our bed, which happened to look out over the lake. We were mesmerized. Across the entire sky, there were simultaneous bursts of lightning, more impressive than any fireworks display I have seen. We woke the boys up, and they jumped in bed with us to watch the show. I wish we had thought to film the storm because it's too difficult to describe. Maybe this is what thunderstorms are like out here because of the panoramic vistas, but we New Jerseyians were certainly impressed.
The next morning we rode our bikes about 2 miles down the hill to the Heron Dam--I was not looking forward to the 2 mile uphill climb later. Near the dam, we turned off on a road with signs for the Rio Chama Trail and eventually came to a rock staircase that led down to the river. Leaving our bikes behind, we went down the stairs and walked across a suspension bridge over the river. This was the beginning of the 5 ½ mile Rio Chama Trail that followed the river connecting Heron and El Vado Lake. Probably a great hike, but not on our program for today. We returned to our bikes and road up the steep hill to the campground.
We reluctantly said goodbye to Heron Lake and headed west towards Monument Valley.
Heron Lake is a 5,900-acre reservoir in northern New Mexico's forested mountain country (elevation 7,200 feet). The state has designated it a "quiet lake" requiring boaters to operate at no-wake speeds. Nearby El Vado Lake has no restrictions on boating speed limits, thereby attracting many more power boaters and jet skiers. As a result, Heron Lake is a very peaceful and tranquil place.
Lone neighbor sailing at dusk on Heron LakeThe no-wake regulation, combined with the lake's steady breezes, make it a premier spot for sailing and windsurfing. Swimming and fishing for salmon and trout (especially below the dam) are also popular activities in the park.
A 5.5 mile fishing and hiking trail along the Rio Chama River connects Heron and El Vado Lakes. The trail starts at a caprock stairway near the Heron Dam, crosses the river on a suspension bridge, and meanders along the river canyon to El Vado Lake.
The park has 139 RV sites along its eastern shores, some of them with hookups.

Joe Lunardi Gets My Attention
In his weekly chat on ESPN.com Joe Lunardi piqued my interest with 2 answers.
http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chat/_/id/31091
1) Matt (Nashville) Any chance Tennessee could land a 2 seed if they win out and take the SEC tournament?
Joe Lunardi (3:27 PM)
Possible, Matt. That would make for a really impressive resume for the Vols.
First off I am annoyed that someone from Nashville is asking a Vols question. I know I should be used to it by now but still irks me. Second interesting that this is a possibility. Say both Vandy and UT win out and meet in the SEC tournament in the championship game (they would probably have to beat UK again). Would the winner get a 2 seed? I understand UT would have an impressive resume but how could a team who probably finished 3rd in their division get a 2 seed? Not to mention I don't see them beating UK a 2nd time. I also don't see us getting a 2 seed unless we win every game left AND beat UK (unless all the teams ahead of us FALL APART)
2) JRice (Nashville, TN)
I live in Nashville and follow Vanderbilt closely- we always seem to have to fight the perception vs. reality thing with the 'Dores- even when they're really good, nobody believes it...I see that this week you have them as a 3- which I think is spot on. Having said that- I think this years Commodore team is the best I've seen yet- why do you think they lack for respect nationally???
I don't get into the whole "respect" (or "lack of respect") thing. If a team is good enough to play its way into the NCAA field, they control their own destiny -- and recognition -- from that point forward.
I don't understand his answer here. The fact that you control your own destiny has nothing to do with whether you get National attention and "proper" respect. What I THINK JRice was saying was besides going to a Final Four what does Vandy have to do to get the national attention that teams like UT, Pittsburgh, Kansas State among others seem to get despite having similar resumes? At this point in the season many teams have similar accomplishments to Vandy yet get much more recognition. Is this because we aren't in a big enough media market? (NOPE), have too small a fan base? (possibly), have burned the national media before? (possible).
Eh whatever. I just want to kick Florida in the teeth, demolish USC, Win the SEC tourney and go to a Final Four. That's not much to ask is it?
Posted by Douglas James at 5:13 PM
I can see what Lunardi is saying about the lack of respect talk. It seems as though all fan bases feel like they don't get the proper respect. For instance, I have seen Notre Dame fans complaining about the lack of respect in football. However, I think most fans would argue that ND is perennially overrated.
For more egregious disrespect, BYU is ranked 14/15; right in the heart of 4-seed land. However, guys like Jerry Palm have them as a 6 seed. Seriously...

'Captain Underpants' Spin-Off Book Yanked For "Passive Racism"
Here's what happened.

In the wake of a half-dozen Dr. Seuss books coming under fire and being pulled by Dr. Seuss Enterprises from further publication due to purported racist descriptions and images, Scholastic will no longer publish – and has even asked libraries to return – The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future. Written by Dav Pilkey and originally released in 2010, the graphic novel was a spinoff of Pilkey's bestselling Captain Underpants book series. The Captain Underpants phenomenon reached peak popularity in 2017 with the release of Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie, an animated family film featuring the voices of Ed Helms, Kevin Hart and Thomas Middleditch.
"Together, we recognize that (The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future) perpetuates passive racism," Scholastic said in a statement. "We are deeply sorry for this serious mistake. Scholastic has removed the book from our websites, stopped fulfillment of any orders (domestically or abroad), contacted our retail partners to explain why this book is no longer available, and sought a return of all inventory. We will take steps to inform schools and libraries who may still have this title in circulation of our decision to withdraw it from publication."
Pilkey provided additional details in a letter he posted on YouTube. He wrote that "The Adventures of Ook and Gluk: Kung-Fu Cavemen from the Future was intended to showcase the diversity, equality, and non-violent conflict resolution. But this week it was brought to my attention that this book also contains harmful racial stereotypes and passively racist imagery. I wanted to take this opportunity to publicly apologize for this. It was and is wrong and harmful to my Asian readers, friends, and family, and to all Asian people."
The author's letter continued, with Pilkey apologizing to his readers and pledging "to do better" in the future.

Misleading voters should be alarming, but for the Tories it's simply 'career progression'
Peadar O'Cearnaigh

The newly elected MP for Blyth Valley Ian Levy has been accused of misleading voters during his election campaign. And while Levy's election was a shock for Labour, the fact that he misled voters seems to be no shock at all. It's merely "career progression" for the Tories.
Insult to injury
Levy took the Blyth Valley seat by over 700 votes. Labour had held it since it first became a constituency in 1950. It was a devastating blow for Labour and for all others who worked and campaigned so honestly for a fair UK.
And if losing the seat wasn't hard enough to stomach, to know it was lost to a candidate who wasn't honest with voters makes it worse. Levy seems to have the same attitude to the truth as his party leader Boris Johnson. Possibly this is why he paid tribute to Johnson so emotionally.
The lie
In a Facebook post on 9 November, Levy claimed to be "an NHS nurse". That post was then edited on 19 November to read:

an NHS mental health nursing assistant
Investigated by Nursing Times, the allegations were first publicised by freelance journalist Esther Beadle:
Here's how to keep politicians in check regarding coronavirus evidence
The House of Lords is debating whether to destroy the NHS once and for all
Blyth Valley's Ian Levy claimed to multiple voters that he was a mental health nurse with CNTW. That was a lie. I asked him about it and rather than address it he fobbed me off, claiming he'd get back to me.
— Esther Beadle (@estherbeadle) December 12, 2019
And when the story broke, there was quite a reaction online. But nobody seemed shocked by a Tory candidate telling lies:

Give him a break. He's got no chance of career progression in the Tory Party if he doesn't lie from the start!

Bloody hell a couple of hours in and the Blyth Tory is already outed as a liar https://t.co/me08SkN7ej

Never mind, Ian Levy will go a long way in the #toxic @Conservatives party, where it appears that #lying is now mandatory

The NHS Johnson lie
There's obviously something about the NHS that makes Tories tell lies. During this campaign they lied about adding 50,000 nurses and building 40 new hospitals. And of course Jeremy Corbyn publicised documents that showed negotiations to increase drug prices in the NHS were at an "advanced stage", which they also denied.
The campaign continues
The Labour Party may very well have taken a walloping in this election, but that doesn't mean the movement for a fairer society did. That work never stops. We can't afford to wait until 2024 to have our voices heard again. Because even then, there's no guarantee of change. The campaign continues here, and calling out lying Tories is just one part of it.

Let's wait for the next election to see what 5 years of Johnson as PM does for the NHS and everything else that is worthwhile in this country.
The Conservatives have been in charge for far more than half of the time since the NHS's creation.
In that time, virtually every time they've taken power they've had to repair the economic mess they inherited
Despite this, it's never been under threat and in fact is was a Labour government that introduced rampant privatisation
This constant left wing "X days to save the NHS" narrative, is not only laughable but comes across like some comedy farce such is the element of self parody
Nobody buys it anymore. Johnson was correct in not only ridiculing the scare-mongering Corbyn, but relishing talking about the NHS and the Tory plans
Thank goodness there is no need for them to be shy in challenging the laughable Labour narrative as that means we can actually have a grown-up conversation about how we're going to meet the challenges, including Social Care
Shaolin12 says:
Prove that Corbyn lied about that document or shut the fuck up, you are committing the criminal act of Defamation of Character, and are a libellous wanker that needs prosecuting for spreading libellous and defamatory lies.
'…nothing more sinister than if it had been in Tony [War-Criminal] Blair's hands.' eh? Oh yeah coz that cunt wasn't scary at all, he was an absolute pussycat wasn't he? Twat.
Also the Tories didn't inherit shit that they hadn't broken and undermined already, and they did that to make the case for privatisation of the NHS. It was Tony Blair who brought in New Labour and its Tory-copied privatization policies, not old Labour. Something you know but are being deliberately dishonest about to make yourself look smart … which of course you failed at.
You talk an absolute pile of guff and wind. You are so ungracious in victory that you deserve to have it taken back from you. Boris Johnson is a Criminal, who has broken several laws already. The fact that our judiciary has done nothing about this is not a sign that Johnson is a straight-talking, honest person, or that there is nothing illegal about it, but because our judiciary is equally mired in corruption, but of course a lying law-breaker like yourself wouldn't bother with such uncomfortable truths.
banbroview, it is my opinion that you are a fucking liar, and I opine that you have the morality and attitudes of PolPot. I am stunned that you, and pricks like you, feel it so necessary to attack an already defeated person. You are exactly the sort of person that trips up blind people to make yourself feel powerful, and for shitz 'n gigglz, or in other words your life is worthless, and you are a worthless automaton with way too few braincells for you to claim credible intelligence (or even credible self-awareness).
Get yourself some brains dickhead, there's plenty at your local butchers, you'll need at least the brains of a rabbit to improve your computational power and general understanding of the world around you.
I got to say, that when pricks like you see everything going rapidly south, your instinct is to praise and join the destruction whilst inhibiting the chances of anyone who can actually pull us out of the shit. This isn't a difference of opinion, it is fact. You, and people like you, who are wilfully ignorant, who delight in mocking the injured, who crave harming the already afflicted, are worthless cowards who deserve nothing but the pain you inflict on others.
In your case I would happily walk by if I saw you dying in a ditch, I may even decide to laugh at you just so you can feel the pain you have caused. You're not clever, you are medically stupid.
I hope that when the NHS is fully privatised, and the BBC still enjoys being publicly funded, that you have the bollocks to apologise to all those you insensitively targetted with your lies. I bet you won't, I bet you'll do what all liars do and pull every trick in the liars hand-book to avoid admitting you were not just wrong, but being a cunt. The fact that you are already blind to the privatisation that has already occurred, doesn't fill me with any hope for you.
You are a stupid person who thinks their opinions should be treated as fact. I hope that when you need medical attention, you will have to go into debt or forfeit your health with no hope of ever getting out of it. Then and only then will you realise, that you and those like you, condemned everyone else to extinction, and worse hated on those who would genuinely save us.
I really hope my words cut at your very heart. I hope my words anger you so much that your fake victory becomes impossible to enjoy. You deserve to feel failure because you are a failure of a human being in that you sought to kick those who were down, a trait that most decent human beings (even Boris Johnson) avoid. Unlike you however, Boris didn't gloat at Labour's defeat, and he even reached out to those whom he knew would be hurting to offer them words of hope. Those words may well turn out to be false, but unlike you, he showed graciousness in victory, and understands that attacking those who are down is not good in any form.
When you attack those who are down, particularly as publicly as you and other broken-arsed people do (because you really are broken when you attack those who are down), all you are doing is showing that you are a piece of shit that deserves no sympathy, and even what I have written is far more of a response than you or others like you, deserve.
@MayA banbroview is a nobody that has no one to celebrate their Tory victory with, and so has come on here knowing that there would be people expressing their disappointment and sorrow at the loss, in order to attack those people, in order to make banbroview feel good about themself. All banbroview has actually done however, is show us what the definitions of an uncharitable ignoramus, and mule-headed-dolt are. I know there are a plethora of other names that accurately describe the type of ingrate and callous bastard banbroview is, but then I don't like swearing or calling people names, unless of course they say something so brain-numbingly stupid that I feel have to respond in kind (to communicate on their level).
Banbroview, who are you? We may be in despair but we are not fooled , nor are we defeated. We see clearly that the 'Shock Doctrine' is in full play. Our collective strength will drown it, will drown you and all those you attempt to stand on the crumbling riverside bank with.
The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein, International Bestseller from one of the World's greatest investigative Journalists, not one word of lies or propaganda, but a very hard read for those who thought they were living in a progressive system and World, run by our democratic votes.
If you haven't read her books, it's time you did, they are not fictional, every fact stated in that book is already in the public domain and verifiable, but if you haven't read it, you will (or at least should be) shocked.
MayA is absolutely right, the 'Shock Doctrine' IS in FULL play, but the reality is that we have such little time left to fix anything. Much of what is written in The Shock Doctrine, has already transpired, even the key player, Milton Friedman is dead now, as is Margaret Thatcher and her close friend (and murdering bastard) Augusto Pinochet.
We cannot sit idly by for the next five years plotting how to get a better government into power, we simply do not have the luxury of time any more. Therefore, to those that really care about Life, the Living, and this Earth, MayA is spot on, we may be in despair, but I for one am not fooled, and neither are a growing number (the majority).
We must change our ways now, or in five years time there will be no point of doing anything as we all will have lost our species and planet by then if we continue down the road of Neo-liberalist Capitalism (by lost I mean we'll likely still be here, but we'll know by then the 'jig is up', and that we are then helpless to change the fate of our species and the World. We will know we are dead before actually being dead).

The Arts Center of the Ozarks recently released a glimpse into its 2018-19 season and, says Executive Director Kathleen Trotter, the goal of the arts organization is to include even more of the community than in the past.
Trotter speaks from her office at ACO, where she will spend the summer surrounded by children from the Northwest Arkansas community. The organization has hosted art camps and classes for the past several weeks, and July brings Trike Theatre's production camp and performance of "Madagascar," as well as the tech education camp Nerdies.
In fact, it seems that ACO boasts more hosting opportunities and partnerships with Northwest Arkansas organizations than nearly any other arts organization in the area. Partners include Arts Live Theatre, Trike Theatre and the performing arts ensemble LatinX, and they will host four shows from the Northwest Arkansas Audio Theatre in the 2018-19 season.
Trotter says their efforts are constantly evolving in order to serve even more of the community. For example, ACO's partnership with Trike this season will yield a program called the Soaring Singers, through which ACO and Trike will work with elementary students at Jones and Parson Hills elementary schools in Springdale.
Teaching artist Stephanie Thibeault gestures while demonstrating a memory recall exercise during a theater workshop last month at the Arts Center of the Ozarks in Springdale. "We will continue to grow the diversity of our audiences," Executive Director Kathleen Trotter promises in announcing ACO's 2018-19 season.
Trotter says the diversity of ACO's programming will strive to mimic the diversity of the community.

Hello i have been using my macbook for a while now and as of a few months ago my macbook would just crash randomly especially when i am playing games on it as well. I'm not sure if its overheating or what, but this is driving me insane. I will post the log to see if that helps.
Probably faulty RAM. You might need to replace the RAM or get someone to replace it for you.
You could also try a new install of OS X, you can use the discs that came with your computer for this. Make sure you back up your data first.
the crsud process failed to access/encrypt/decrypt the keychain files.
It would be better to check the keychain validity of the user, or if you have admin right you check the system keychain as well.

Kabbage Expands to Australia in New White-Label Collaboration with Kikka Capital
Fintech news, news, p2p/online lending March 26, 2015 April 2, 2015
FINOVATE: Kabbage has announced plans to move into the Australian market with a white-label offering of its small business lending technology. The launch in Australia represents Kabbage's first foray into the Asia-Pacific region, having already been in operation in both the U.K. and the U.S.
The service in Australia will be operated by Kikka Capital, which is licensing the platform and will manage marketing, funding, and loan servicing. Kabbage will handle underwriting and management of the loans.
Kikka Capital founder and managing director David Brennan said that the collaboration with Kabbage was a unique opportunity to bring "breakthrough lending technology" to Australia. "Launching on the Kabbage platform allows us to dramatically accelerate our entry into small business lending," Brennan said.
For Peter Steger, head of business development for Kabbage, the collaboration is a reflection of the platform's flexibility and an opportunity for Kabbage to access new markets. Kabbage was founded in 2009 and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia. The company has funded more than $550 million in loans to small businesses. Kabbage Loans range from $2,000 to $100,000, terms are six months, and small businesses only need a business checking account or PayPal account to apply. Approval only takes a few minutes once all data is provided and accounts verified.
Rather than charge interest, Kabbage assess a lending fee between 1%-13.5% of the amount borrowed for the first two months of the loan, then 1% each month for the balance of the six-month term. There are no early repayment penalties.

Kern Luther, Corvallis: Oregon State University Press, 2016, 186 pages.
The attractive book with the moss watercolour on the cover caught my eye in the new A\J office. The back cover promised an "exhilarating mix of natural history, botanical exploration and philosophical speculation" of interest to, among others, botanists like me. Intrigued, I picked it up thinking, perhaps Boundary Layer will give me a fresh perspective on the way I do botanical surveys and reclamation work in Alberta.
It does not, but that doesn't mean I didn't enjoy parts of this book. The "boundary layer" as a concept is first revealed as a physics phenomenon. As a metaphor, it is expanded to include the layer of diminutive mosses, lichens, and fungi (collectively referred to as non-vascular plants) that occupy the boundary between earthly and atmospheric strata. Then Luther looks at the in-between places of ecosystems at different scales, for example, the rare ecosystem on BC's West Coast that lives between active and stable dunes. Finally, he applies the metaphor to the undefined place between the humanities and science that Luther says, "is my own deepest rift." Boundary layer is a construct that ties these otherwise unconnected topics together.
To fill this rift, philosophical speculation makes about a quarter of the book. We understand why, when Luther reveals in the epilogue that he is a graduate of philosophy at the University of Chicago. So if you enjoy the larger sweep of thought about the origins of ecology, or of the definition of wilderness and the ramifications this has had on past and current policy--to name two examples --you may find these sections and chapters thought provoking. If, for a feet-on-the-ground practitioner like me, you are not, or if you fill the rift in other ways, such as with art or spirituality, there will be a chunk of this book that will be skimmed or passed over.
Luther does take a naturalist's look at the mosses, fungi and lichens that occupy the terrestrial boundary layer, and it is a good introduction to these often overlooked plants. In these chapters there are meta-facts that are engaging and read-aloud worthy. For example, 90 percent of forest plants are estimated to have secretive, below-ground fungal partnerships that are essential for some plants (such as orchids), and for others, gives them access to increased nutrients and contributes to their success.
While Luther correctly identifies the paucity of specialists able to identify mosses, his list of practitioners only includes academics and their students. There are moss specialists working in Alberta who are not connected with any university, and there is a surge of enthusiasm to learn to identify mosses and lichens among some professional and amateur botanists.
Besides saying there are not enough trained specialists to identify nonvascular plants, Luther also mentions the difficulty that single-year baseline surveys pose for fungi, which do not all produce identifiable mushrooms annually, but might only do so every five years or more. As well, he raises the difficulty in understanding and categorizing a symbiotic organism such as lichen, the result of a partnership between fungi and algae, where the fungal partner provides structure for the alga, and the alga photosynthesizes and provides food for the fungus. The two organisms combined express not as either, but as a new organism: lichen. Both the timing of surveys and botanic complexities underscore why efforts to survey pre-development communities to reduce environmental impacts, or protect rare species, are so imperfect. It poses the question, as James Kay pointed out in this journal 20 years ago: do we only count wildlife that are attractive and easy to see?
Luther examines each boundary layer species or ecosystem through best known BC researchers. Some of their personal journeys as relayed by Luther are more engaging than others, like the Czech mycologists who chose not to return to their homeland in defiance of their government and stayed in Canada to build new careers in British Columbia. Or the lichenologist who overcame severe depression, now lives and studies in park-like seclusion, and says, "news to me is where the snowline on the mountain is today". Both character sketches come as a welcome relief when my interest starts to fade with the less captivating government employees and academics who carry the narrative for ecological-scale stories.
Although all of the people, species and ecosystems are in British Columbia, the processes described happen globally and shouldn't stop anyone anywhere from getting something out of this book, philosophically, historically or scientifically.
Cheryl Hendrickson is a consulting biogeographer who lives in Alberta's boundary layer of foothills. She is a long-ago managing editor of A\J.

Hannah Martin London acts as a predominantly fine jewellery house for men, although none of its pieces are designed specifically for women they appeal to both genders with a clever tag line, 'Iconic fine jewellery for men, that girlfriends will steal' which allows the brand a significant female following.
I actually discovered Hannah Martin London through this very scenario when my friend Joachim and his wife Isla were both wearing the same style Hannah Martin necklace (Shaman's Triangle Simple Pendant) on an evening out. Isla explained to me that she originally bought the necklace for Joachim's birthday but would constantly borrow it. Joachim then bought her the same necklace for Christmas, so he could wear his again!
The next day I researched Hannah Martin London and realised that I was familiar with the labels androgynous creations, having met the designer at London Fashion Week's Rock Vault exhibition last year.
Hannah Martin London was founded in 2005 after Hannah returned to London following a period working for Cartier in Paris. Her collections offer sleek designs with a fundamental philosophy for each piece to tell a unique story, inspired by a visual narrative of her male muse, which are based on elements of her imagination.
My favourite piece is the Double Pearl Shackle Bracelet which has made it onto my jewellery wishlist. However this is closely followed by the minimalistic Spur Pendant. Both pieces have entirely different aesthetics but share the same contemporary edge.
Hannah Martin London is stocked on the brands website, including other retailers which you can find here.
