Slow news
Tis a slow news day, at least to me. Nothing that is coming over the wire has inspired me. However, if any of you has seen something that has made you excited, please feel free to post it here, as a comment.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Hi,
Hope all is well, I was wondering if anyone knows what happened to IJIS sea ice data?
Thanks,
Greg
The instrument that reads the data, AMSR-E, failed earlier this fall. Unfortunately, their webpage, http://www.ijis.iarc.uaf.edu/en/home/seaice_extent.htm, is presently down, so I can’t give you more precise information.
Yes!
This is dated by about a month but significant nonetheless. Both sides of the AGW debate at the same conference in Santa Fe (including Judith Curry and Fred Singer). Here is an interesting summation from a reporter in New Mexico.

Who says both sides cannot discuss the topic together? Of course we can.

Tarzan’s Cheetah died at age 80. I am heartbroken. No more monkeying around.
