Apple's Fuel Cell Project Presents Conflict of Interest for Al Gore | National Legal and Policy Center

“Apple buying technology from Bloom Energy, where Gore has a financial stake, is a clear conflict of interest,” said Dr. Tom Borelli, director of the National Center’s Free Enterprise Project. “Shareholders must question why Apple is choosing to pay a premium for alternative energy when there are many sources of cheaper energy available in North Carolina, such as coal.”

Olbermann’s Nastiness Spotlights Democrats’ Hypocrisy

Agents found Bill Clinton’s vice president Al Gore — codenamed Sundance — to be cut from the same cloth. Every agent has heard that when Gore was bawling out his son Al Gore III over poor performance at school, he warned him, “If you don’t straighten up, you won’t get into the right schools, and if you don’t get into the right schools, you could end up like these guys.”

Gore motioned toward the agents protecting him.

“Sometimes Gore would come out of the residence, get in the car, and he wouldn’t even give the guys the coachman’s nod. Nothing,” former agent William Albracht says. “It was like we didn’t exist. We were only there to facilitate him to get from point A to point B.” As professionals, Albracht says, “We do not have to like you to protect you, but it can make the long hours a bit more tolerable.”

Climate Scientists Burn Up Whatever Was Left Of Their Integrity | Real Science

As far as global temperatures go, 2012 has been below the 30 year mean.

...Now, back to the US. Temperatures in the mid-Atlantic are forecast to drop well below freezing later this week. Climate scientists will suddenly lose interest in the US, and move on to somewhere else which is anomalously warm – just like they did in Europe 2003, Moscow 2010, and Texas 2011.

This is all about keeping the funding stream alive. It has nothing to do with science, climate or weather.
