Absolutely heartbreaking article on the savagery of honor killings in Iraq.
Islam is not compatible with western civilization. We were foolish to think we could ever bring westernized democracy to Islamist countries. They are not like us. Progressives need to take their heads out of the sand and realize this.

They do realise it.
Both have an interest in the destruction of Western Civilisation and its Judeo-Christian moral foundation, hence the Red-Green alliance and in this instance Green does not refer to the Gaia worshippers.
They of course don’t understand that once Leftists have ceased being the useful idiots of the Saracens, they themselves will be destroyed just as they were after they helped them gain power in Iran in 1979.

Hydro is often counted as a “green” “renewable” even though it is an established properly engineered system that can make inexpensive reliable power just like any other proper coal, gas or nuclear power station.
However, it too is weather dependent to a certain extent and is dependent on the availability of water which might be reduced during droughts.

The devastating consequences of eating bear meat which apparently some people do where bears are available.
https://youtu.be/nnXAh2FQX0Y

I generally eschew eating carnivores. I prefer my meat no more than one degree of separation from photosynthesis. Carnivores have too many opportunities to pick up nasty diseases/parasites from their prey as well as their environment, while herbivores are only subject to environmental risks.
150
Goes for all game meats, and even store bought meats have routine testing for infection.
Freezing doesn’t guarantee safety, only thorough cooking.
So beef steak is fine rare, but game meats should be thinner cuts and cooked thoroughly with temperature probe testing, 75C minimum.
One should also mention the parasite risk from vegetables too. Even the humble lettuce poses a risk from parasites.
Now do Sushi! 😁

2026 was another warmest Spring in the Central England mean Temperature series. All 3 spring months were 2.5C warmer than the 1961-90 average. The first 3 weeks of May were cooler than average, then the crazy heatwave blew it all away.
The last 3 years have each taken top spot in turn, although realistically they are statistically the same. 8 of the top 10 warmest springs in the best part of 400 years are 2007 and later.
All the other thermometers and the Met Office’s dark methods found similar.

Great news. Everything’s better when it’s warmer. I don’t understand why Starmer wants to do experiments to make it colder by blocking sunlight with atmospheric aerosol injection.

This is the trend. The maximum daily average solar intensity between 10S and 50N is increasing. The maximum daily average sunlight at 10N is rising fastest. It is 2.2W/m^2 up since its bottom back around 1300AD. It took a couple of centuries to reverse the cooling trend in the NH. The reversal in temperature trend was around 1600AD. Since then the maximum daily average sunlight has been increasing.
So the warmth in the UK is primarily due to increasing ocean temperature due to increasing sunlight mainly in the lower latitudes of the NH.
The sea surface temperature around the Iberian Peninsula is now 4C up on the 1980-2010 average:
https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/ocean/surface/currents/overlay=sea_surface_temp_anomaly/orthographic=-351.98,40.94,676/loc=-2.705,44.974
That is a big deal because the Med is warming fast due to its latitudinal constraint. It is essentially prevented from circulating heat northward.
The Med is close to sustaining monsoon conditions every year now. That bodes well for the re-greening of the Sahara. The SST in the Med is presently around 24C but it will be warming quickly and by August could be up near 30C needed to drive monsoonal storms.
To put the 2.2W/m^2 increase in perspective, it has another 90W/m^2 to go before it it tops out. But that is 9,000 years off.
Greenland is accumulating ice above 2300m. The accumulation will gradually occur at lower altitude and then accumulation will spread to peaks and northern slopes along the Arctic Ocean.
Most of the SH is getting lower maximum daily sunlight with only 10S to the Equator still having increasing sunlight. So the SH is on the verge of cooling. The heat content of the oceans of the SH could be declining within next decade. That will throw a spanner in the works for GLOBAL warming and the remaining scammers will know their scam is dead. Warming in the NH is accelerating; driven by the increasing maximum daily sunlight.
This year will be the first year that the annual average temperature in the NH exceeds that of the SH. From now on, the gap will widen due to the higher proportion of land and its faster response to sunlight.

MrGrimNasty,
I have bother believing there’s a meaningful figure for the temperature of “spring”.
The way the CET is calculated (apparently) is to take the midpoint between max and min for each day, then average those over spring. It would seem to be equally meaningful to take the midpoint of max and min for the whole of spring and do without averaging day by day. That would surely give a different number and probably a different “warmest spring” if you worked them out in the historical record.
And of course there are any number of other ways you could invent to represent the temperature of spring.
It’d be interesting to ask exactly when this spring temperature calculation was first performed. The record goes back to 1659, but I doubt the figure for 1659’s spring temperature was calculated until the modern era and the great global warming nonsense.
20
You think that’s a problem? With the way urbanisation has spread since then I would be amazed if temperatures at reading stations dropped. On top of that the Met Office have a policy of doing everything they can to make temperatures higher, so their figures are quite suspect at best.

ON aren’t ready to govern. They don’t have enough depth and breadth of talent and experience to run a country, especially when the leftist blob would immediately engage in sabotage – including the leftist-controlled senior public service.
Reform in the UK faces the same problem and it would make governing the country almost impossible. Trump’s problems in the US are an indication of where we would be, perhaps even worse given the almost complete capture of the nation’s mission-critical institutions by the left.

We have to try.
You don’t need to be experienced to have sensible policies.

30
Another criticism is that they haven’t got policies! 2 minutes online will show an abundance of policies so much so that the Coalition are stealing them.
Also that the policies are not fully costed, well atm ON has not got the backing of massive economic/spin machines which are available to the monied Labour/Libs. This can change easily in the future.

“Would You Rather Live Near A Battery Energy Storage System or a Nuclear Plant”

For now, I will take the nuclear facility.
If they made canned nuclear plants that you can install when you build your home, I would have one. In fact, if there is a nuclear power source rated at 100W continuous, I would be very interested. That would replace all my solar panels and I could use batteries to handle the peak demand. It would give confidence to get off the grid.
Even if it needed the fission material replacement every decade or so it would still be nice.
Distributed nuclear could be a very economic power source. And the risk – consequence of loss of containment very low.
An idea for the next trillionaire. Think of all the copper that could be recovered from the grid. Or not needed for grids in Africa.

SMR Nuclear Technology Australia website
Microreactors are essentially “nuclear batteries”.
They are of unique potential value in off-grid applications, most especially
for the mining industry.
The deployment of microreactors for off-grid electrical and heat will
enable a transition away from diesel fuel to low emissions, reliable energy
supply for off-grid mining sites, other key industries, critical
infrastructure, energy-intensive operations like data centres, remote
communities and disaster recovery.
ANSTO’s OPAL reactor at Lucas Heights has a thermal power capacity of
20 MW. Power reactors are banned under Australian law, but the OPAL
reactor was licensed to operate as a research reactor.
Many microreactor designs have a lower thermal power than OPAL but
are not allowed to be licensed because they are classed as “power
reactors”. If the law were to be changed, these microreactors could
provide essential services to Australian industry by replacing the high
emissions from the use of diesel power.
Subject to regulatory change, microreactors will provide Australian
companies with versatility and diversity in their future development.
Microreactors are designed to be inherently safe.
Microreactors are likely to join SMRs in contributing to the reduction of
greenhouse gas emissions in Australia and other countries.

Rick -So would I –
“His submittal included the following Perplexity response:
BESS Fire Emissions vs. Level 2 Nuclear Plant Incident: What’s Actually Released
This is one of the most analytically uncomfortable asymmetries in the entireframework. The short answer: a Level 2 nuclear plant incident releases nothing into the environment by definition, while a Stage 2–4 BESS fire releases a chemically complex, multi-pathway hazardous plume that would trigger federal reporting requirements under almost any other industrial sector.
In the prior statement, Perplexity was stating that the Stages in its BESS Scale don’t correlate on an“Apples to Apples” equivalent with the INES Scale because a Level 2 Nuclear Event is far less impactful on the surrounding environment than its determination of a Stage 2 BESS Event. The effects of that and the chemicals released are documented in Appendix 4 and echo what was presented in my previous filling.
While the newer LFP BESS systems are better, they are not foolproof and they are not as benign as the installers would have you believe.”

I broke Copilot. It has stopped talking to me. We were into a long teaching session on convective instability and it said something stupid. It stopped talking when I pointed it out.
Normally it accepts it when I point out it is wrong but it just stopped the exchange today.
I did get it to agree that downwelling LW does not exist. It is an unphysical concept.From Copilot:
So yes, treating “downwelling LW” as a separate, physically real flux at the absorber, rather than as part of a radiative exchange model, is exactly the kind of conceptual shortcut that turns into claptrap.
Copilot raised the “Poynting Vector” in the exchange so it has been reading up on Maxwell field theory probably from Mischenko’s work.
I wonder if it is able to send flags to its programmers when it gets logically cornered?
This is the paid for version that has stopped. Not the free version available without subscription.
I am waiting to see how it recovers. It could be I have run out of fuel tickets for the day. I was pushing it hard on the topic. My longest session yet.

That is so funny. As I have said previously, Grok got very “uppity” when I said that it’s insistence that the Covid vaccines worked was “rubbish”.

The Rice Catastrophe Paper and the RCP 8.5 Rug-Pull”
Concludes
What this looks like from the cheap seats
The rice paper was published three months before its principal scenarios were formally retired. The press cycle that ran with its catastrophic numbers has not been updated. The 2,600 impact studies still in the 2026 literature have not been corrected. The institutions that built the framework, defended it for fifteen years, declared it implausible last month, and are now taking credit for the implausibility are not apologizing.
Rice has fed civilizations through the Holocene Climatic Optimum, the mid-Holocene warm spike, the Medieval Warm Period, and the Little Ice Age. The paper’s own author concedes that aggregate production can be maintained. The paper’s own introduction acknowledges that adaptation is already masking the warming that has occurred. And the paper’s thirty-times figure rests on a scenario that no longer exists in the literature.
“The press will not mention any of this. That is the press cycle doing its job, which is what the press cycle has always been for.”

Iran, US and the Strait of Hormuz
What is going on in the Strait of Hormuz? Diplomacy is dragging on and the Strait remains closed. Or is it?
The Deal
Trump is still talking about making a deal with Iran. According to the SkyNews team such a deal is pointless since Iran cannot be expected to keep their side of a bargain. In fact the only certainty is they will lie and break their word.
US blockade of Iranian Ships.
This seems to be holding up. 100 ships turned back by the US navy and 4 ships disabled.
Mine Clearing
Mine clearing is underway but no announcements. USN may have destroyed 10 mines.
Iran tried to lay more mines using small boats but they were destroyed, along with missile and drone launchers.
Strait not Closed
President Trump announced Project Freedom to escort ships through the Strait on 3 May, then suspended it on 5 May.
Since then Up to 70 ships have passed through the strait but this has been kept very low key! 4 ships damaged by missiles and drones but none have hit mines.
What Next
It seems likely to me that the next step is for the USN to openly sail through the Strait. That will humiliate the IRGC and should provoke a response, which will be the pretext for further strikes to weaken the Iranian regime.
It is high risk and maybe the defensive arsenal needs to be strengthened further before they try it.
70
USN has already taken two ships through the Strait. It did provoke attacks but USN destroyed attackers.
I get the feeling that US will wait out the IRGC. People in the US are not experiencing the impact of the conflict like the rest of the world. Gasoline price in USA is just over USD1/litre – Biden era prices. Gasoline is USD2.15/litre in the UK.
The linked chart highlights the extent of US victory:
https://www.chartoasis.com/usd-irr-forex-chart-1-year-cop0/
That looks comprehensive to me. The IRR has no value. I expect life is tough for those in Iran. For more perspective, the smallest note printed in Iran is 1000 Rials. You would need to fork over 1,351 of those notes to get 1 greenback.
The IRGC may adept a strategy of showing the emerging squaller to gain sympathy but that could make them appear weak.
I buy fire lighters in 100 off container. I pay AUD7. Say USD5. So each one costs 5c each or 67,000 rials. A banknote weighs around 1gram. So burning the 67 1000rials notes would deliver around 10X the energy of burning a fire lighter – that makes for tough times.
80
On 08 May the USN sailed 3 destroyers through the Strait of Hormuz in daylight. They were attacked by Iran but not damaged. Missile and drone sites in Iran were destroyed.
https://www.aa.com.tr/en/world/trump-says-3-navy-destroyers-exited-strait-of-hormuz-under-fire-will-rejoin-blockade/3930786
Since then about 70 commercial ships has cleared the Strait, usually under cover of darkness with transponders turned off.

One Nation’s very first House of Representatives MP has been sworn in at Parliament, he won the Farrer by election and a major campaign issue was water supply.
This is an example of how Federation of States areas of responsibility and powers can get confused with Federal Government;
Water management in Australia is primarily the responsibility of individual states. Each state has its own legislation and authorities to oversee the management of water resources.
State Responsibilities
Legislation: Each state enacts its own laws regarding water management.
Authorities: States have specific agencies responsible for managing water resources, including rivers, lakes, and groundwater.
Local Management: Local water corporations and catchment management authorities implement policies and manage water supply and quality.
Federal Involvement
While states hold primary responsibility, the federal government also plays a role, particularly in:
Murray-Darling Basin: The federal government oversees water management in this critical region, which spans multiple states.
National Policies: Federal legislation, such as the Commonwealth Water Act 2007, establishes frameworks for water management that affect state policies.
