NSIDC loses, then refinds a million square kilometers of sea ice
The corrected image (with the million square kilometers of sea ice restored) appeared on the NSIDC web site just shy of 3 hours later, about noon PST or 1 PM MST.
The Reference Frame: Haaretz about Nir Shaviv
Without quoting his name, Shaviv mentions the cruel attacks by a nasty German eco-Nazi called Stefan Rahmstorf that they had to face for a while. When Shaviv decided to reply to hostile press releases by Rahmstorf, the German greenshirt threatened to sue Shaviv for copyright violation. These activists always tend to act in this immoral way. They don't consider the standard mechanisms of science to be "fair" enough, i.e. green enough.

By the way, despite all the huge pro-greenhouse bias in the journals and elsewhere, the Shaviv-Veizer paper has 91 citations right now, while the almost immediate alarmist reply by 11 authors, including RealClimate's Rahmstorf, Archer, and Schmidt, only has 24 citations.
GORE LIED: Video: Rush Limbaugh skewers the warmed-over headline "The climate is heating up far faster than scientists predicted"
[Limbaugh] Reuters has a headline: "Global Warming Seen Worse than Predicted." We are cooling! We're having record cold temperatures in over two-thirds of the country and throughout Northern Hemisphere this winter! Reuters says, "The climate is heating up far faster than scientists had predicted, spurred by sharp increases in greenhouse gas emissions from developing countries like China and India, a top climate scientist said on Saturday." This guy's name is Field.
...
Well, now, what should the story, then, be? If between 2000 and 2007 greenhouse gases increased far more than expected and the temperature is going down, what should we conclude? That greenhouse gases lead to cooling!
