Tucson sportsmen are eagerly awaiting the opening of the Santa Cruz Sand Trout fishing season. Fishing can’t begin until the ice breaks on the Santa Cruz river. When it does, the fish emerge and anglers can net the tasty morsels.
Conditions are right when Tucson’s temperature first hits 100 degrees.
The date and time of this event varies widely from year to year. Last year’s icebreak was relatively early: April 22 at 1:51 PM. The latest icebreak on record was June 6, 1985 at 12:59 PM....
Or, Gadzooks, This Giant Sequester-Monster Is Going to Devour Us All!
Back in 1997, I was a youngish, single man living in Los Angeles—working in the entertainment industry and living in a studio apartment in the Virgil District. I had arrived in LA a few months earlier, just in time for — *insert scary music here* – EL NIÑO.

Oh! Carbon, where is thy sting-a-ling-a-ling? Oh! Gore, thy victory? The Bells of Hell go ting-a-ling-a-ling For you but not for me.
I must confess, I take personal glee in the idea of the climate alarmists eating climate crow:
The article then went on to survey emerging research (U.S. government funded!) casting doubt on high estimates of climate sensitivity, along with alternative explanations on some climate factors, such as “black carbon.” The question in my mind at the time was how ...
Mark Twain observed that everyone complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. He was of course making a typically wry comment, but leave it to liberals to take it to heart. First to jump on the let’s-try-to-monkey-with-the weather bandwagon was Al Gore, who has since made millions off the hoax known as “global warming,” but which sometimes goes by the alias of “climate change.” More recently, we had the Con Man-in-Chief mention it in his State of the Union add...
Nineteen minutes is longer than most people will give a video these days, but if you have the time, check this one out, all the way to the end.
The world is getting greener—literally, more areas are becoming forested and covered with plants—because of fossil fuel use. Because of nitrogen fertilizer, because of carbon dioxide, because of efficient farming, and because products and energy sources that don’t use up other natural resources.
Another stunner? Not counting island species—ma...
