Knightian Decision Theory: Part 1
A theory of choice under uncertainty is proposed which removes the completeness assumption from the Anscombe-Aumann formulation of Savage's theory and introduces an inertia assumption. The inertia assumption is that there is such a thing as the status quo and an alternative is accepted only if it is preferred to the status quo. This theory is one way of giving rigorous expression to Frank Knight's distinction between risk and uncertainty.

Winging their way home
Two air tractor fire bombers, built in Texas, are on their way home to Canada from Ballarat, marking the end of the Victorian bushfire season. Pilots Scott Gunter and Ray Dyson have begun the one week journey to British Columbia.

Ferry pilots Scott Gunter from Texas and Ray Dyson from Florida have visited Victoria to pick up two air tractor fire bombers.
The planes were based at Ballarat Airport for the Victorian fire season.
They say the trip will take 50 flying hours over seven days in these powerful 1700 horsepower single engine planes which cruise at 180 knots.
Scott and Ray spent a week in Ballarat.
"It's just like home and I've had some really good beef here," Scott says.

Rating:4.0I recently rediscovered E2 on dvd and realized that even though it hardly made a splash back when it was on in 1994, it's a show that would be more resonant if it were on today considering the latest trends toward creating a more green environment. Why? Well, if you've read earlier reviews, by now you know what it's about: not too far into the future, the Earth is all but extinct and humans live on space stations orbiting above Earth. A lack of an actual earthlike atmosphere leads a mother and her dying son to search for an alternate earthlike planet 22 light years away. Of course their plan to colonize the new planet goes disastrously wrong when their ship crashes and strands them and their eclectic crew thousands of miles away from their intended destination and they must make their way across an strange planet full of obstacles. This show had a ton of potential. When it hit its notes right, it was like the classic Twilight Zone: a good dollop of science fiction, action, a bit of humor, some good drama and/or romance all packaged together with some insight into the human condition ("The Enemy Within", "Redemption", "Better Living Through Morganite part 2"). It tackled many environmental issues effectively but still entertainingly, such as conservation of natural resources and the question of superiority of humans over animals and alien life ("Water", "Survival of the Fittest"). But of course it's not perfect. Some of the episodes are brilliant, others are schmaltzy or pale imitations of cheesy horror and scifi movies ("After the Thaw", "The Greatest Love Story Never Told"). Notable actors include Jessica Steen as Dr. Julia Heller, career villain actor Clancy Brown (playing the good guy for once) as John Danziger, and my favorite, the funny and talented John Gegenhuber playing the whiny but occasionally sweet Morgan Martin. But I don't think there is a weak link in any of the cast (even the child actors were good). All in all, I was and am still sad that it left off on a cliffhanger that was never resolved because it was cancelled after season 1. I'll keep futilely hoping for a reunion movie to come out one day and just enjoy the dvds in the meantime.

10 things you need to know today: February 3, 2015
The Week
Megyn Kelly Speaks Up For Mandatory Vaccination On Fox: 'Some Things Do Require Big Brother'
It looks like Fox News can tell the truth at times…
Think Progress
A debate on vaccines has infected the nascent 2016 Republican presidential primary. Rand Paul, for example, said that the right of parents to refuse vaccines is "an issue of freedom." To bolster his point, he claimed that vaccines can give children "profound mental disorders," and idea that is completely unsupported by medical literature.
Similarly, Chris Christie framed the vaccination issue as a matter of "parental choice." (Faced with mounting criticism, Christie later backtracked partially, saying only some vaccines should be optional.)
Monday night on Fox News, Megyn Kelly provided the antidote. Appearing on The O'Reilly Factor, Kelly spoke out forcefully for mandatory vaccines. (O'Reilly agreed.) Speaking directly into the camera, Kelly said, "I want to say on the record, I have three children under the age of six. I vaccinated all of them. On time. As the doctor prescribed. Nothing was delayed." She noted that the science showing vaccinations are safe and beneficial for children is "very certain today."
Kelly predicted the issue would continue to play a role in the Republican presidential primary because it had become about "Big Brother." "On the other hand, some things do require some involvement of Big Brother," Kelly said.
Kelly may want to have a conversation with her colleague, Sean Hannity. On his program Monday, Hannity said that "parents should have the choice" on whether to vaccinate their children. Hannity featured commentary from Dr. Eric Braverman who told millions of views that "no one" is giving their children the full course of vaccine shots. According to Braverman there is an "overreliance" on vaccines to prevent disease.
The segment featured more medically accurate commentary from Dr. Marc Siegel, who accused Braverman of perpetrating a "bait and switch." Even Siegel, however, opposed mandatory vaccinations. Braverman concluded the segment by claiming that vaccines "don't always work" and attributing the measles outbreak in Disneyland to the combination of heat and junk food.
In 2015, there have been more than 100 cases of measles reported in the U.S. across 14 states. The Center For Disease Control is "very concerned" that the country could be on its way to a major measles outbreak. Already, dozens of babies, too young to get vaccinated, have been forced into isolation.
Although Megyn Kelly has a growing reputation of standing up to some of the worst excesses on Fox News, not everyone is impressed.
Mitt Romney Won't Run in 2016 Presidential Election
The New York Times
WASHINGTON — Mitt Romney, the 2012 Republican presidential nominee, told a group of supporters on Friday that he would not seek his party's nomination for president in 2016.
Mr. Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, shared his decision on a conference call with a small group of advisers.
In a second call to a larger group of supporters, Mr. Romney said, "After putting considerable thought into making another run for president, I've decided it is best to give other leaders in the party the opportunity to become our next nominee."
Mr. Romney said he believed he could win the nomination, but he expressed concern about harming the party's chances to retake the White House. "I did not want to make it more difficult for someone else to emerge who may have a better chance of becoming the president," he said.
He added that it was "unlikely" that he would change his mind.
Mr. Romney, who did not take questions and ended the call shortly after reading a prepared statement, said that his family had been gratified by the outpouring of support, but had decided that it was best for the Republican Party to step aside. Mr. Romney said he would have no leadership PAC and no exploratory committee.
By not pursuing a third White House bid, Mr. Romney frees up scores of donors and operatives who had been awaiting his decision, and creates space for other potential center-right candidates such as former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush.
Mr. Romney, 67, had expressed renewed interest in another presidential run to a group of donors earlier this month, roiling the nascent Republican race. Many of his loyal contributors, staff members and supporters had been reluctant to come out for one of his potential rivals until they knew Mr. Romney's plans.
But his flirtation had also prompted a fierce backlash across Republican circles, and some of Mr. Romney's former aides and donors have begun moving on to other candidates.
In a more than four-hour meeting last week, Mr. Romney's top staff members and trusted advisers from 2012 relayed a sobering reality — they supported Mr. Romney and thought he would be the best president, but they did not necessarily encourage a third run.
One by one, loyal supporters talked about surveying their troops from 2012, and finding that the enthusiasm and support were just not there. Some Iowa precinct leaders were not coming back, and even in New Hampshire — where Mr. Romney had won the primary — the mood was described at best as "cautiously optimistic." The situation with donors was also going to be an uphill climb.
Word of Mr. Romney's decision sent waves through the Republican donor world early Friday, as Romney aides began to telegraph the news to donors and other staff members and strategists. Some donors immediately began calling representatives of other potential candidates, such as Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey, to discuss offering their support.
Mr. Romney's announcement started a day of reckoning with his would-be rivals. He is scheduled to have dinner with Mr. Christie on Friday evening, according to two people with knowledge of his schedule, suggesting that Mr. Romney may be considering throwing his support, and that of his own political operation, to Mr. Christie. The two men are friendly, and Mr. Christie, along with Mr. Bush, was a main rival of Mr. Romney for the favor of the Republican establishment.
Mr. Bush offered his own warm words for Mr. Romney in a post on Facebook on Friday morning.
Mitt is a patriot and I join many in hoping his days of serving our nation and our party are not over," Mr. Bush wrote. "I look forward to working with him."
At 11 on Thursday night, a blast email was sent from a mittromney.com address, alerting supporters about a conference call on Friday morning.
"Please join me for an update call tomorrow at 11:00 a.m. EST, 8:00 a.m. PST," wrote Mr. Romney, adding the dial-in information and concluding, "All the best, Mitt."
In an appearance at Mississippi State University on Wednesday, Mr. Romney sounded themes that could have shaped another campaign. But he also lamented the nature of the political process and offered a dose of barely veiled self-criticism, discussing some of the shortcomings of his 2012 campaign and the lessons he learned from his loss to President Obama.
Mr. Romney's decision will almost certainly bring an end to his decade-long quest to become president. He lost in the Republican primary in 2008 before becoming his party's standard-bearer four years later.
Friday's conference call seemed bittersweet for the Romney family. At one point, Mr. Romney's wife, Ann, came on the line and thanked the former aides for their steadfast support.
But luck was clearly not with Mr. Romney this time, even as he shared the news with his former staff members on his morning call. Mr. Romney's voice fell off the line as the connection was suddenly dropped.

Bill Clinton Warned Jeb Is 'Real Threat,' Christie Not So Much
I'm not sure if Bill Clinton is right. I suspect he wants Jeb Bush to be the Republican nominee knowing the nation wants no part of another Bush in office. Therefore, making it easier for Hillary's chances of winning the Presidency in 2016.
TPM LiveWire
That's according to an extensive piece in Politico published Monday about the former secretary's possible presidential campaign. Former President Clinton, according to the Politico piece, got a "heads-up" from people in former President George H. W. Bush's world just a few days after the former Gov. Bush announced that he would "actively explore" running for president. In the words of Politico, former President Clinton saw Bush as a "real threat" while Christie as more of a "sideshow."
Early polling of the Republican primary field has shown Bush leading a host of other candidates.
Despite the politcal rivalry, the Bush family and the Clinton family are actually somewhat close. Former President Clinton has repeatedly visited Former President H.W. Bush in Maine every summer and former Gov. Bush once presented former Secretary Clinton with an award. Former President George W. Bush has also referred to former President Clinton as his "brother from another mother."

The search resumes for the missing AirAsia jet, Jeb Bush leads an early GOP presidential poll, and more
1. Indonesian officials say missing airliner probably "at the bottom of the sea"
Crews on Monday spotted suspicious objects in the water after resuming the search for AirAsia Flight 8501, which vanished on Sunday with 162 people on board. The head of Indonesia's search and rescue operations said Monday that the airliner is believed to be "at the bottom of the sea." The Airbus A320-200 went missing over the Java Sea after running into intense thunderstorms. It disappeared without a distress call shortly after air-traffic controllers reportedly denied the crew's request for permission to climb to a higher altitude. [USA Today, The Washington Post]
2. Jeb Bush leads potential GOP presidential rivals
Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush holds a big lead over other possible Republican presidential candidates, according to a CNN/ORC Poll. Bush, the son and brother of former presidents, was favored by nearly 23 percent of Republicans polled. His closest competitor, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, trailed him by 10 points. Bush, 61, said two weeks ago that he would start raising money and formally exploring the possibility of launching a bid for the White House in 2016. [New York Daily News]
3. Palestinians prepare to submit statehood resolution to U.N.
Palestinian leaders plan to give the United Nations a final draft of a statehood resolution on Monday. The document calls for reaching a peace deal with Israel within a year that would include an end to Israeli control of Palestinian territories by late 2017. The proposal would establish a state called Palestine — its capital in East Jerusalem — alongside Israel. The Israeli government supports negotiations but opposes U.N. action, saying that imposing a third-party timeline would deepen the conflict. [Reuters]
4. Death toll rises to five in Greek ferry fire
The death toll from a fire on a Greek ferry boat has risen to five, Greek officials said Monday. At least 391 of the 478 passengers have been rescued since the fire broke out on a car that was on the vessel, the Norman Atlantic, as it sailed across the Adriatic Sea from Greece to Italy. Crews on ships and helicopters from both countries worked through the night plucking people from the ship. [The Associated Press]
5. ISIS executed nearly 2,000 over six months
Islamic State militants executed 1,878 people in Syria over the last six months, the U.K.-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said Sunday. An estimated 120 of the Islamist terrorist group's own members were among the dead, nearly all of them fighters who were trying to leave battle and return to their home countries. The majority of those murdered were civilians; 930 were members of a Sunni Muslim tribe from eastern Syria. [Reuters]
6. Ferguson police spokesman admits calling Brown memorial "trash"
A Ferguson, Missouri, police spokesman was placed on unpaid leave on Sunday for calling amakeshift memorial to Michael Brown, an unarmed black teen shot dead by a police officer, "a pile of trash in the middle of the street." The spokesman, Tim Zoll, at first said he had been misquoted by The Washington Post, but later admitted to making the statement. The memorial had been built up in the middle of the street near the site where Brown was shot in August, but it was destroyed over the weekend when a car plowed through it. [The New York Times]
7. Cameroon carries out airstrikes against Boko Haram rebels from Nigeria
Cameroon launched its first airstrikes against Islamist fighters belonging to the group Boko Haram on Sunday. The strikes were part of an offensive started after the Nigerian-based Boko Haram stepped up cross-border raids, threatening Cameroon's security, officials said. Militants overran a military camp and briefly occupied it before the airstrikes drove them back into Nigeria. At least 41 Boko Haram fighters and one soldier were killed in the clashes, Cameroonian officials said. [BBC News]
8. California surfer survives shark attack
A California surfer identified in local papers as Kevin Swanson survived being bitten and pulled underwater by a juvenile great white shark on Sunday. Witnesses said the man was on his surfboard when the eight- to 10-foot shark came up from below and struck. Swanson managed to paddle to shore, where fellow surfers and two doctors came to his aid. He was airlifted to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. The shark bit into his right hip, but Swanson's surfboard took the brunt of the attack. [Los Angeles Times, Fox News]
9. Greek election turmoil drags down its market
Greek stocks plunged by 10 percent on Monday after the country's parliament failed to pick a president in a crucial vote. Stavros Dimas, the government's preferred candidate, fell 12 votes short of the 180 votes needed to avoid a general election, paving the way to snap elections in January. The political crisis could threaten Greece's European financial bailout if the elections prevent the country from approving a revised bailout plan by the end of February. [CNBC, Bloomberg]
10. Online viewers salvage The Interview's first weekend
Sony Pictures' controversial comedy The Interview earned $15 million online through Saturday, nearly as much as it was expected to make on 3,000 screens before its nationwide rollout was scrapped. The film — about a TV host recruited to assassinate North Korean leader Kim Jong Un — also brought in $3 million in ticket sales at 331 art house and independent theaters that agreed to screen it after national chains balked at showing the film due to threats by a group of hackers.

New Jersey releases quarantined Ebola nurse Kaci Hickox, creeping lava nears a Hawaii town, and more
1. Quarantined Ebola nurse allowed to leave New Jersey
New Jersey officials on Monday discharged a nurse, Kaci Hickox, who had been forcibly quarantined when she arrived at the Newark airport after treating Ebola patients in West Africa. New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R), who had faced intense pressure to let Hickox, 33, leave the hospital, announced the news via Twitter. Hickox, who called the state's quarantine policy "inhumane," tested negative for Ebola. She returned home to Maine on Tuesday, and will be temporarily isolated at home under the state's Ebola protocols. [USA Today, The Associated Press]
2. Slow-flowing molten lava threatens Hawaiian village
Lava slowly flowing from the Kilauea volcano on Hawaii's Big Island has crept to within 70 yards of the nearest home in the village of Pahoa, and could destroy it on Tuesday. The lava was moving at 20 yards per hour, and had already covered graves in a Buddhist cemetery. Residents in the village, where 50 or 60 homes and businesses are threatened, have been told to be ready to evacuate. The Red Cross has opened a shelter to accommodate evacuees. [The Washington Post]
3. U.S. Army quarantines soldiers after Ebola response mission
The U.S. military has started isolating Army soldiers returning from Ebola aid work in West Africa. The Centers for Disease Control on Monday said that health workers who have treated Ebola patients should be monitored, but should not be quarantined unless they show symptoms. The leader of the U.S. response said doctors and nurses should not be turned into "pariahs." Australia on Monday became the first Western nation to impose a visa ban on the countries affected by the outbreak. [Reuters]
4. Investigators say school shooter lured victims with text
The Washington state school shooter texted his five victims to invite them to lunch before shooting them in the cafeteria, Snohomish County Sheriff Ty Trenary said Monday. Gia Soriano, 14, died Sunday from a gunshot to the head, and Zoe Galasso, also 14, died on Friday, the day of the shooting. The gunman — identified as 15-year-old football player Jaylen Fryberg, shot himself in the head and died. The three other shooting victims are still hospitalized. Asked about a motive, Trenary said, "I don't know the 'why.'" [Los Angeles Times]
5. Report found no legal grounds for GOP to sue Obama
A nonpartisan Congressional Research Service report concluded last month that Republicans haveno legal grounds for filing a lawsuit against President Obama for allegedly breaking laws with his policies. House Speaker John Boehner (R-Ohio) and other Republicans have accused Obama of violating the Constitution by making changes to ObamaCare after it was passed, among other alleged offenses. Boehner aides say he has not decided on the timing for filing the suit. [Washington Monthly, Politico]
6. ISIS posts a new video showing hostage John Cantlie
The Islamic State of Iraq and Syria released a new propaganda video on Monday in which a British hostage, photojournalist John Cantlie, gives a tour of the besieged Syrian town of Kobani on the Turkish border. In the clip, Cantlie criticizes the Western media's reporting on ISIS' battle for the mostly Kurdish city, saying that areas reported to be under Kurdish control were really in the hands of ISIS. Cantlie said foreign journalists were getting the story wrong because they were getting their news from "Kurdish commanders and White House press secretaries." [The Washington Post]
7. Church court clears pastor temporarily defrocked over gay marriage
The United Methodist Church's highest court ruled Monday that the Rev. Frank Schaefer, a pastor temporarily defrocked last year for performing his gay son's wedding, will be allowed to continue his ministry. The ruling was made on technical grounds, and did not signal an official acceptance of same-sex marriage by the nation's second largest Protestant denomination. Still, Schaefer said, "This is definitely a step further down the road." [Los Angeles Times]
8. Prosecutors appeal Pistorius verdict and sentence
South African prosecutors plan to appeal double-amputee track star Oscar Pistorius' five-year sentence for shooting and killing his girlfriend, model Reeva Steenkamp, last year. Pistorius said he shot Steenkamp by mistake, thinking she was an intruder. Prosecutors said the judge misinterpreted the country's legal definition of intent when she found Pistorius guilty of manslaughter instead of murder. Legal experts said there was no chance the appeal would result in Pistorius' acquittal. [CNN]
9. Researchers say BP oil spill left a "bathtub ring" in the Gulf of Mexico
The 2010 BP oil spill left a Rhode-Island-sized "bathtub ring" on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, according to new research. The study was conducted by UC Santa Barbara expert David Valentine, who was the chief scientist on the federal damage assessment research ships. It concludes that about 10 million gallons of oil coagulated on the sea floor around the damaged Deepwater Horizons oil rig, which spilled an estimated 172 million gallons of oil. BP disputed the findings, saying the researchers "failed to identify the source of the oil." [NBC News]
10. Businessman John Tory elected to replace Rob Ford as Toronto mayor
Toronto voters on Monday elected lawyer, businessman, and civic booster John Tory to replace scandal-plagued Rob Ford as mayor of Canada's largest city. Tory, 60, defeated Ford's brother, Doug Ford, 40 percent to 34 percent. Doug Ford threw the race into turmoil when he replaced his brother on the ballot just before the Sept. 12 deadline. Rob Ford instead ran for city councillor in his old Ward 2 seat… and won. [The Star]
Chris Christie Wants You To Know He'd Rather Die Than Be A U.S. Senator
TPM LiveWire
"I would rather die than be in the United States Senate," Christie said Saturday during a speech to the New Jersey state NAACP. "Okay? I would be bored to death. Could you imagine me banging around that chamber with 99 other people, asking for a motion on the amendment in the subcommittee? Forget it."
"It would be over, everybody," he added. "You'd watch me just walk out and walk right into the Potomac River and drown. That would be it."
His remarks on the Senate drew laughs from the audience.
Christie, who is mulling a 2016 presidential bid, said that his legacy in New Jersey would be defined by what he accomplishes by the end of his final term as governor — not by the next election.
"Believe me, by the way, when I say 'I'm never running for public office in New Jersey again,'" Christie said. "I mean I'll never run for public office in New Jersey again."
13 Republican Climate Deniers Who Want to Be President
This is some important information for those on the fence trying to figure out who to choose as the next Republican Presidential candidate in 2016…
Mother Jones
This story originally appeared on Grist and is republished here as part of the Climate Desk collaboration.
It's hard to believe, surveying the GOP field of possible presidential nominees, but back in 2008 the parties were not that far apart on climate change. Sen. John McCain of Arizona, the Republican nominee, backed cap-and-trade for carbon emissions. After joining his ticket, so did Sarah Palin. But back then, lots of Republicans and conservatives also supported an individual mandate to buy health insurance. The Republican Party of 2008 was a big enough tent to include people who admitted demonstrable problems existed and supported free-market-oriented solutions. Not anymore. The rise of the Tea Party movement and the rightward shift of the Republican base and the politicians who pander to it put an end to all that. Whoever is the Republican nominee for president in 2016, it's a safe bet that he—and yes, it will be a he, as all the leading contenders are male—will oppose taking any action on climate change. Chances are that he won't even admit it exists.
The Republicans basically fall into four categories: (1) Flat-Earthers, who deny the existence of manmade climate change; (2) Born-Again Flat-Earthers, who do the same, but who had admitted climate change exists back before President Obama took office; (3) Do-Nothings, who sort of admit the reality of climate change but oppose actually taking any steps to prevent it; and (4) Dodgers, who have avoided saying whether they believe climate change is happening, and who also don't want to take any steps to alleviate it. Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal and Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker fall into the latter category. The Do-Nothings are blue and purple state governors, Chris Christie of New Jersey and John Kasich of Ohio. In a sign of how far rightward Republicans have moved since 2008, these are actually the guys who are trying to position themselves as relatively moderate and pragmatic. The Born-Agains are Florida Sen. Marco Rubio and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee. Both are staunch conservatives but only partial wingnuts. Back when that meant believing in climate change, they did, but they have since followed their base into fantasyland. Everyone else is an outright denier and always has been.
Here's our full breakdown of all 13 of the top potential hopefuls, including their lifetime score from the League of Conservation Voters if they served in Congress. No, we did not include Donald Trump even though he would probably lead in the polls if he ran. And alas, we cannot predict who might be the next Herman Cain. MaybePapa John? If he, or any other pizza moguls, run, we'll add an update.
Jeb Bush, former governor of Florida
Category: Flat-Earther
While President George W. Bush never did anything about global warming, his brother goes further, by not even admitting it exists. In 2009, Jeb Bush toldEsquire, "I'm a skeptic. I'm not a scientist. I think the science has been politicized. I would be very wary of hollowing out our industrial base even further… It may be only partially man-made. It may not be warming by the way. The last six years we've actually had mean temperatures that are cooler. I think we need to be very cautious before we dramatically alter who we are as a nation because of it." Last year, he talked about how generating power with natural gas instead of coal would reduce greenhouse gas emissions, but he avoided actually saying the C-word or mentioning why reducing emissions would be a good thing.
Notable quote: "I think global warming may be real.… It is not unanimous among scientists that it is disproportionately manmade. What I get a little tired of on the left is this idea that somehow science has decided all this so you can't have a view." (2011)
Chris Christie, governor of New Jersey
Category: Do-Nothing
Compared to all of his competitors, Christie's position on climate change is refreshingly reality-based. In 2011, he said: "There's undeniable data that CO2 levels and other greenhouse gases in our atmosphere are increasing. This decade, average temperatures have been rising. Temperature changes are affecting weather patterns and our climate…when you have over 90 percent of the world's scientists who have studied this stating that climate change is occurring and that humans play a contributing role, it's time to defer to the experts." Other than the fact that he understated the scientific consensus—it's more like 97 or 98 percent—there isn't much to find fault with there. But if you think that means Christie will back action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, think again. On the same day he made those comments, he withdrew New Jersey from the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, a cap-and-trade program for Northeastern energy utilities, complaining that it was "nothing more than a tax on electricity." He also rolled back his state's renewable energy goal, from 30 percent by 2021 to 22.5 percent. And the Christie administration conspicuously does not mention climate change in the context of Sandy recovery.
Notable quote: "I haven't been shown any definitive proof yet that [climate change] is what caused [Sandy]. And this is just, listen, this is a distraction. I've got a place to rebuild here and people want to talk to me about esoteric theories." (2013)
Ted Cruz, senator from Texas
Category: Flat-Earther
Cruz—a high school valedictorian, Princeton alum, and editor of the Harvard Law Review—is supposed to be smart. His grasp of climate science, however, leaves much to be desired. In a February interview with CNN, Cruz deployed classic, bogus GOP talking points about climate change. "The last 15 years, there has been no recorded warming. Contrary to all the theories that they are expounding, there should have been warming over the last 15 years. It hasn't happened," said Cruz. "You know, back in the '70s—I remember the '70s, we were told there was global cooling. And everyone was told global cooling was a really big problem. And then that faded." There has, in fact, been global warming in the last 15 years. And it is not true that in the 1970s "everyone was told global cooling was a really big problem."
Notable quote: "Climate change, as they have defined it, can never be disproved, because whether it gets hotter or whether it gets colder, whatever happens, they'll say, well, it's changing, so it proves our theory." (2014)
LCV score: 15 percent
Mike Huckabee, former governor of Arkansas
Category: Born-Again Flat-Earther
In 2007, when all the cool kids were for cap-and-trade, so was Huckabee. He said, "One thing that all of us have a responsibility to do is recognize that climate change is here, it's real.… I also support cap-and-trade of carbon emissions. And I was disappointed that the Senate rejected a carbon counting system to measure the sources of emissions, because that would have been the first and the most important step toward implementing true cap-and-trade." But Huckabee totally flip-flopped after the rise of the Tea Party and anti-Obamaism reshaped the GOP. In 2010, he even denied that he ever had supported cap-and-trade. "This kind of mandatory energy policy would have a horrible impact on this nation's job market," he wrote in a blog post. "I never did support and never would support it—period." By 2013, he was hosting climate-denier-in-chief Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) on his radio show to spread falsehoods. Among the ones Huck contributed himself: "When I was in college, all the literature at that time from the scientific community said that we were going to freeze to death."
Notable quote: "The volcano that erupted over in Northern Europe [in 2010] actually poured more CO2 into the air in that single act of nature than all of humans have in something like the past 100 years." (2013) Actually, no, it didn't.)
Bobby Jindal, governor of Louisiana
Category: Dodger
Jindal was supposed to be the great hope of smart Republicans. He majored in biology at Brown, was a Rhodes scholar, and he famously declared, "We've got to stop being the stupid party." But he's done his fair share of dumbing down the GOP. As Brown biology professor Kenneth R. Miller wrote in Slate, "In [Jindal's] rise to prominence in Louisiana, he made a bargain with the religious right and compromised science and science education for the children of his state." He signed into law the Louisiana Science Education Act, which "allows 'supplemental textbooks and other instructional materials' to be brought into classrooms to support the 'open and objective discussion' of certain 'scientific theories,'" such as evolution and climate change. In other words, he's promoting creationism and climate change denialism in public schools. Still, Jindal has never come out and stated whether he accepts climate science.
Notable quote, on EPA's proposal to regulate CO2 from power plants: "This is such a dangerous overreach in terms of the potential threat to our economy and our ability to restore those manufacturing jobs, I absolutely do think litigation needs to be on the table." (2014)
LCV score: 6 percent
John Kasich, governor of Ohio
Category: Do-Nothing
In what passes for moderation in today's GOP, Kasich actually acknowledges the existence of global warming. That doesn't mean he wants to do much about it. "I happen to believe there is a problem with climate change. I don't want to overreact to it, I can't measure it all, but I respect the creation that the Lord has given us and I want to make sure we protect it," Kasich said in 2012 at an energy conference hosted by The Hill. Ohio is rich in coal and heavily dependent on it for energy, and Kasich pledged to keep it that way, touting the promise of ever-elusive "clean coal." In comments to reporters after that 2012 event, Kasich said he opposes EPA regulation of coal-fired power plants' CO2 emissions: "I believe there is something to [climate change], but to be unilaterally doing everything here while China and India are belching and putting us in a noncompetitive position isn't good." Still, give him credit for evolving; in 2008, he claimed, "Global warming is cyclical, and the focus of a ferocious debate."
Notable quote: "I am just saying that I am concerned about it, but I am not laying awake at night worrying the sky is falling." (2012)
LCV score: 27 percent
Rand Paul, senator from Kentucky
Category: Flat-Earther
What makes Paul so scary is that he actually believes the crazy things he says. When your average Republican talks about small government, you know it's all just code for "protecting the currently wealthy and their businesses." So, if you could convince most GOP politicians that it's in their political interest to take action on climate change, they could be moved. Paul isn't like that. He is actually committed to his far-right, small-government ideology. He doesn't even think, for example, that the federal government has the power to force businesses to racially integrate. So of course he doesn't support action to address climate change, and he never will. When he's trying to sound more mainstream, he says climate science is "not conclusive"; at other times, he caricatures the science of climate change to try to discredit it.
Notable quote: "If you listen to the hysterics…,you would think that the Statue of Liberty will shortly be under water and the polar bears are all drowning, and that we're dying from pollution. It's absolutely and utterly untrue." (2011)
LCV score: 11 percent
Mike Pence, governor of Indiana
Category: Flat-Earther
Pence is an ultra-conservative who does not much care for environmental regulation. He also remains unconvinced that the Earth is warming. "In the mainstream media, there is a denial of the growing skepticism in the scientific community on global warming," Pence claimed in a 2009 interview with MSNBC's Chris Matthews. It is not clear what "growing skepticism" he was referring to. In the same interview, Pence refused to say if he believes in evolution but implied that he does not.
Notable quote: "I think the science is very mixed on the subject of global warming." (2009)
LCV score: 4 percent
Rick Perry, governor of Texas
Category: Flat-Earther
Perry is no one's idea of a man of science or an intellectual, not even his supporters'. Texas political insiders call him "Bush without the brains." At Texas A&M, he got mostly Cs and Ds, even in gym, and an F in organic chemistry. When drought parched Texas in 2011, Perry's solution was to call for three days of prayer for rain. Remarkably enough, that didn't work. Perry, who is extremely close with polluters who donate to his campaigns, simply invents facts to suit his conviction that climate change isn't happening. In 2011, he said, "I think we're seeing it almost weekly or even daily, scientists who are coming forward and questioning the original idea that man-made global warming is what is causing the climate to change." The Washington Post fact-checker debunked this claim. Perry's 2012 presidential run was disastrous, in part because he proved himself too dumbeven for Republican primary voters, which is sort of like being too white for Iceland. And yet, he is making noises about running again. And since Republican primary voters seem to get dumber with each election cycle, he could be a contender this time.
Notable quote: "I don't believe man-made global warming is settled in science enough." (2011)
Marco Rubio, senator from Florida
Category: Born-Again Flat-Earther
Like a lot of ambitious Republicans, Rubio tacitly accepted the science of climate change back in 2007. He talked up renewable energy and referred to global warming as one of the reasons to embrace it. By 2009, he had seen the error of his ways, saying, "There's a significant scientific dispute" about climate change. By 2010, he was using his Republican primary opponent Charlie Crist's belief in "man-made global warming" as an attack line. In May 2014, Rubio made an inept effort to deny climate science, saying, "Our climate is always changing. And what they have chosen to do is take a handful of decades of research and say that this is now evidence of a longer-term trend that's directly and almost solely attributable to manmade activities." Ah, merely "a handful of decades of research." That's nothing, right? After getting a lot of blowback for those comments, he tried to clarify and just dug himself in deeper.
Notable quote: "I do not believe that human activity is causing these dramatic changes to our climate the way these scientists are portraying it." (2014)
LCV score: 11 percent
Paul Ryan, U.S. rep from Wisconsin
Category: Flat-Earther
Climate change can be a tough issue for someone who wants to present himself as a wonk, as Ryan so very badly does. To just ignore the science is to risk looking dumb. So, for Ryan, opposition to climate regulation is more about his intense opposition to economic regulation more generally. He constantly asserts that climate regulations, for example, would impose an enormous cost on our economy. Insofar as he discusses the underlying science of climate change, though, he tries to cast doubt on it, using a combination of phony concern for scientific accuracy and an even phonier regular-Midwestern-guy shtick. In a 2009op-ed, he devoted several paragraphs to the trumped-up scandal at the University of East Anglia's Climatic Research Unit and suggested that climate change should be a low priority for Wisconsinites because it snows in their state in the winter, writing: "Unilateral economic restraint in the name of fighting global warming has been a tough sell in our communities, where much of the state is buried under snow." In July, while refusing to discuss the science of climate change, Ryan asserted that the EPA's proposed power plant regulations are "obnoxious." "I think they're exceeding their authority and I think they kill jobs," he said.
Notable quote: "[T]here is growing disagreement among scientists about climate change and its causes." (2010) LCV score: 13 percent
Rick Santorum, former senator from Pennsylvania
Category: Flat-Earther
As you might expect from a religious extremist who once compared homosexuality to "man on dog," Santorum's beliefs on climate change are unapologetically ignorant. At least he can boast of having been consistent. As Politico noted of Santorum in 2011, "Unlike Romney and some of the other GOP presidential candidates, the former senator has never backed cap-and-trade legislation or other mandatory policies to curb greenhouse gases." Santorum attacked Romney for admitting that climate change was happening, calling it "junk science" that was invented by liberals to gain greater control over the economy. And his May 2014 book calls climate change a "hyped-up crisis."
Notable quote: "I for one never bought the hoax. I for one understand just from science that there are one hundred factors that influence the climate. To suggest that one minor factor of which man's contribution is a minor factor in the minor factor is the determining ingredient in the sauce that affects the entire global warming and cooling is just absurd on its face." (2012)
LCV score: 10 percent
Scott Walker, governor of Wisconsin
Category: Dodger
Walker is a favorite of the Koch brothers—he notoriously kissed ass during a call with a prankster pretending to be David Koch. The oil oligarchs like him because he opposes governmental regulations, except for when the regulation stymies clean energy. Walker imposed regulations to keep wind turbines further away from homes and signed a pledge never to pass a carbon tax. He has also raised money for the Heartland Institute, an organization that spreads climate misinformation. But he's never actually said whether he accepts climate science.
Notable quote, criticizing his gubernatorial opponent for pushing climate legislation: "Governor [Jim] Doyle [D] has put his trust in international politicians, bureaucrats, celebrities and discredited scientists to replace the real manufacturing jobs Wisconsin is losing every day." (2009)
Another Bridge Scandal Is Rocking Chris Christie's Administration
The Huffington Post
NEW YORK, June 24 (Reuters) – A second bridge investigation linked to New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is underway, this one focusing on possible securities law violations involving the Pulaski Skyway bridge, the New York Times reported on Tuesday.
The new inquiry was prompted by an ongoing investigation into "Bridgegate," the George Washington Bridge traffic scandal that has engulfed Christie, a potential 2016 Republican contender for the White House.
Now investigators from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and the Securities and Exchange Commission are focusing on the Christie administration and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
According to the Times, officials are probing whether bond holders were intentionally deceived by a $1.8 billion agreement in 2011 to repair the Skyway, which connects the New Jersey cities of Newark and Jersey City.
In bond documents, the Port Authority said the project was part of "Lincoln Tunnel Access Infrastructure Improvements," although the Skyway is more than 9 miles (14 kilometers) south of the Lincoln Tunnel connecting Weehawken, New Jersey and midtown Manhattan in New York City.
The Christie administration had relentlessly lobbied to use Port Authority money to repair the Skyway but was told it was ineligible because the bridge is state-owned and operated, the Times reported. The Port Authority recast the bridge as an access road to the Lincoln Tunnel and the funding was secured, the newspaper said.
Investigators are scrutinizing the accuracy of the access road description as a possible violation of the Martin Act, a New York State law that carries felony charges for intentionally deceiving bond holders, according to the Times. The probe could also result in civil action under the Martin Act or by the SEC under federal securities laws.
Still underway are investigations into the George Washington Bridge scandal, in which a massive traffic disruption in September 2013 was allegedly orchestrated by two Christie aides in retaliation against the Democratic mayor of Fort Lee, who did not endorse Christie's re-election bid.
The four-day closure of access lanes in Fort Lee snarled traffic, delaying school buses, ambulances and commuters. Christie has denied he knew about or was involved in the incident. He fired one top aide and the other resigned under pressure. (Reporting by Barbara Goldberg; Editing by Susan Heavey)

Did Barack Obama have a chat with Karpov and Kasparov before he announced last week that he was abandoning Bush-era plans to locate a missile shield in Eastern Europe? He was quick – and right in the view of many defence experts – to reassure critics that far from leaving America's allies more vulnerable, his policy shift would clear the way for a much smarter system that would actually do more to shield southern Europe and the Middle East from short-range missile attack by Iran.
What he didn't state publicly was that his policy shift was also a carefully timed turn on the diplomatic chessboard that could arm him with a simultaneous weapon to contain Iran, not via interceptors and radars, but economic sanctions.
Containing Iran's nuclear ambitions peacefully is in turn part of a bigger jigsaw aimed at convincing Israel not to bomb Iran's nuclear plants, kick-start the moribund Middle East peace process and maybe even eventually establish the basis for a "grand bargain" around a future settlement in Afghanistan. Much of the above, especially any real progress between Israel and the Palestinians remains blocked for the time being. Benjamin Netanyahu's intransigence on settlements has made sure of that.
But against the backdrop of the theatrics of the UN General Assembly, Obama can still claim he has secured two big gains on Iran. He persuaded yesterday's special summit of the Security Council to back a resolution that ratchets up pressure on the Islamic Republic. And he extracted a strong hint from Russia that Moscow might back economic sanctions if nuclear talks with Iran next month make no progress. Nobody realistically expects those talks to deliver the kind of concessions from Tehran that would constitute "progress".
Moscow has long made clear its total hostility to the idea of what Hillary Clinton calls "crippling" sanctions or even of isolating Iran in the absence of proof that it is manufacturing a nuclear bomb. This week Dmitry Medvedev uttered the words Mr Obama wanted to hear. Sanctions rarely deliver results, said Mr Medvedev, but in some cases "they are inevitable".
It was hardly a coincidence the U- turn came so soon after Washington shelved the missile defence plan in Russia's backyard. Whether Russia would actually go along with an oil embargo when the time comes, is another matter. There is also the obstacle of China's veto. But if Russia joined the Western-led move, China could at least be persuaded to abstain.

James: Drama surrounding Mayor Rob Ford could turn to farce soon
There are at least two, maybe three or four shoes still to drop as the drama at city hall intesifies by the day.
The drama at city hall intensifies by the day. And by next week it could become a farce.
In just 24 hours, the long list of candidates salivating over the prospect of replacing Rob Ford as mayor has dwindled considerably — thanks to a clarification of Monday's court judgment tossing Ford from office.
Team Ford is buoyant for the first time since Justice Charles Hackland found Ford guilty of conflict of interest and removed him from office, effective Dec. 10. The ruling also suggested Ford was out for the rest of the term, which ends October 2014.
In a dramatic change Friday, Hackland amended his ruling to allow Ford to seek re-election any time city council calls a new city-wide vote to replace him. The Dec. 10 dismissal still stands.
But wait, there are at least two, maybe three or four shoes still to drop.
Ford is appealing Hackland's guilty verdict on Jan. 7, a month after he is supposed to be out of office. So, Ford's lawyers will be in court Wednesday asking judges to suspend, not overturn, the Dec. 10 dismissal, until Ford's appeal of Hackland's guilty verdict is heard.
If the judges reject this request Wednesday to suspend the decision until the appeal is heard, cue the chaos at city hall. Ford would be out of office Dec. 10. Council would have to declare the office vacant even as the mayor is appealing the decision. And council would have to fill the vacancy.
Would they just appoint an interim mayor — Deputy Mayor Doug Holyday — until the Ford appeal is decided? That would be the wisest route. But what if they just decided to go straight for a byelection?
Ford would be running to replace himself, even as he is in court fighting to overturn the decision tossing him from office.
That is why most observers feel the court will suspend the decision removing Ford from office, until the appeal is decided.
But who understands how judges think or what motivates them?
Hackland's decision is a perfect case in point. Why would he amend his ruling when the original seems logical? As it stands now, he has removed Rob Ford from office only to allow him to seek office again immediately.
Now, if judicial sanity prevails next week and a "stay" of the decision is granted, we're still not home free from the political drama.
If Ford's appeal eventually fails, city council must declare the seat vacant. But wait. Would they opt for a byelection or fill the vacancy by appointment?
Suddenly, councillors who favoured a byelection yesterday may want to appoint Ford's replacement now that the mayor can run again. And vice versa.
The political wheels are grinding even more feverishly today.
With Rob Ford back in the picture for a byelection that could be held as early as this spring, Councillors Doug Ford, Doug Holyday, Karen Stintz, Michael Thompson, Denzil Minnan-Wong are suddenly not interested in running.
But the opportunistic Councillor Giorgio Mammoliti is ready to seize the opportunity. Who else from the political right? And would a John Tory be bold enough to step into the vortex now?
Among the so-called progressives, there is considerable hand-wringing. None of MP Olivia Chow (NDP), Councillor Shelley Carroll (Liberal) or non-aligned Councillor Adam Vaughan are ready for this sudden opportunity. But will political ambition allow any of the three to back away and let just one of the three take on Ford one-on-one?
Fuelling the drama and tumult is this: most political operatives believe that anyone who wins the mayoral byelection that is not yet called, and isn't a sure thing, will be awfully difficult to unseat in the real election in October 2014.
Is someone making a movie on this?

BOSTON – Welterweight Matt Brown probably will get a top-10 opponent in his next fight, according to UFC President Dana White, but it doesn't look like he'll upset one matchup planned for the near future.
A previously discussed fight between Rory MacDonald (15-1 MMA, 6-1 UFC) and Robbie Lawler (21-9 MMA, 6-3 UFC) is still planned.
"We like that fight," White told MMAjunkie.com (www.mmajunkie.com) when asked if Brown's performance might have put him in the mix. "I think so, yeah, (it's happening)."
The UFC executive didn't have a timeline for the bout, which was proposed after MacDonald's and Lawler's performances at this past month's UFC on FOX 8 event. MacDonald outpointed Jake Ellenberger on the card while Lawler knocked out Bobby Voelker.
For now, Brown's quick knockout of Mike Pyle, which happened Saturday on the FOX Sports 1-televised main card of UFC Fight Night 26 at Boston's TD Garden, has "put him on the radar" for a top-10 slot, White said.
It's about time: "The Immortal" has won six straight fights and stopped five of his opponents via TKO or knockout.
At the post-event press conference, Brown (18-11 MMA, 11-5 UFC) admitted that Pyle (25-9-1 MMA, 8-4 UFC) had gotten the better of him when they used to train together in Las Vegas.
"Mike really is one of the best fighters in the world, he just doesn't always put it together in the ring," he said. "I just came in to whoop his ass. I knew it was going to be me or him. Hopefully it put me somewhere in a good position to get some big fights. I know in this sport you get what you earn not what you deserve, hopefully I earned something good here."
There was no doubt that White was impressed, however.
"[Brown] came out tonight and made quick work of a guy a lot of people respect, a tough durable guy," he said. "I think tonight's fight put him in a position to possibly get a spot in the top-10 and fight one of the guys in the top-10."
It is, however, too early to start thinking about Brown to face welterweight champ Georges St-Pierre, whom he called out after concussing Pyle.
"You guys are going to be voting tomorrow," said White, who was referring to the UFC's official rankings, which are compiled through a media vote. "Don't throw [St-Pierre vs. Brown] at me."
So Brown will have to be satisfied with a $50,000 "Knockout of the Night" bonus. And from the sound of it, he's not sweating anything.
"I'll fight whoever they want me to, man," he said.
But he's clear on his goal: "I'm only in this sport for one thing, and that's to beat GSP's ass."

Trees are often an important part of a landscape design. Special, unusual trees used in landscaping are often referred to as ornamental trees. They are planted to enhance the appearance of the design. Many flowering trees are considered ornamental trees, as well as trees with interesting bark, leaves, structure and smell. Many tree varieties are also used in landscaping for shade, trees for privacy and backdrops. Continue reading

The next time any of the planets will align with each other is predicted to be in October 2015. The last time at least three planets aligned was in 2011.
There will never be what is called an "exact" planetary alignment because of the different orbits of the planets. It is estimated that there will be another close alignment, meaning about 30 degrees within each other, of all eight planets in 2438, similar to the one that occurred in 1962. Beyond that, it could take millions of years before all eight of the planets ever align in perfect harmony again.
Learn MoreAccording to NASA, gravity is the reason why planets are round. Gravity causes any matter to attract toward any other matter. When planets began to form, the earth's solar system was one big swirling disk that contained dust and gas, with the sun at its center. Particles of dust and gas pulled toward each other due to gravity.
Full Answer >Planets orbit around the Sun as a result of gravitational pull, or the natural attraction, between two masses. Earth has a velocity that is perpendicular to the force of the Sun's pull, causing it to move in a circular fashion.
Full Answer >In this solar system, Mercury and Venus have no moons. Mercury is the smallest planet in the solar system and only slightly larger than Earth's moon. It is the closest planet to the Sun. Venus is the second closest planet to the Sun and is slightly smaller than Earth.
Full Answer >All four of the gas giant planets in the solar system have rings. These are Saturn, Jupiter, Neptune and Uranus. The rings of Saturn are so prominent that they can be seen with binoculars on clear nights. The rings of the other planets are much more faint.

LL's Calmed Down But Certainly Hasn't Slowed Down
Never one to miss an opportunity for a costume change, Lindsay showed off an array of outfits going about her business this weekend. And by business I obviously mean hanging out at the Polaroid Mansion in Malibu and shopping at Juicy. Perhaps she was celebrating because over the weekend we learned that she's putting on some dancing shoes for a new role in the upcoming movie Dare to Love Me, though I wouldn't put too much stock in that just yet. Her movie deals do have a tendency to fall through. Not that a flailing movie career would ever break this one's stride. She's too plucky for that.

I actually think she's doing pretty damn good what with her shitty parents and having the world throw whatever she wants at her. I wish her well and her new movie (I thnk i know who killed me)looks bang'n,i'll be watching.

Long gone are the days where Hollywood was full of talent and mystery. It was like everyone prided themselfs in looking amazing and everyone had multi talents. They could all sing, dance and act now its like if you can f*ck on camera you are famous. So gross, I mean porn stars are Hollywood superstars these days, these people bring NOTHING to the table whatsoever. Just a bunch of spolied brats throwing temper tantrums and spending money, big f*ckin deal.

Actually she is playing a hooker in her next movie. So stripper to prostitue is how we will be seeing LL in her next 2 films. Classy. I am glad to know that her agents are capitalizing on her strong points.

Notoriousrem_22, I agree. Hollywood has become this playgroud for the filthy and talentless (no, LL, running to the nearest club isn't considered talent), where the only purpose is to get famous and get famous quickly. Very few of the actresses and actors today will be remembered in the same way Audrey Hepburn, Ava Gardner, Humphrey Bogart, and Gregory Peck are remembered. LL and Paris should count themselves lucky if anyone remembers them in five years.

Hey easy on calling her a 'hooker' thats an insult to the working girls of this world. At least they are smart enough to make money off of the guys they deal with, this chick just gives it away.

Who cares? A has been at 21. I am just waiting for her to go to jail that's the only reason why I have any interest in this chick. Other then that she is dirty and nasty. I too am pretty much OVER Hollyweird its become so polluted with FAKENESS and BS I don't know what the point is anymore. All these girls look the same, dress the same etc. It seems as if any sign of originality is gone once you move to the Left Side, everyone just reeks of desperation.
