Why are climate alarmists so impervious to facts, so averse to rational cost-benefit analysis? It has all the hallmarks of a religious cult, says James Allan. They can't let it go because it gives meaning to their lives.

There's a climate emergency, so cough up, say insurers. It hasn't stopped them raking in billions, notes Chris Morrison. And no wonder: weather losses are actually down compared to 35 years ago. Time for a bit of honesty?

MSNBC news reader rips up Paris Hilton story live

category international | arts and media | other press author Friday June 29, 2007 19:58author by morning joe Report this post to the editors

Today a few things happened - Iraq, London, Poverty etc..,

But for some reason US TV network MSNBC wanted to lead their news hour with a Paris Hilton story. You know the vapid girl who went to jail (not prison) and suffered attention deficit disorder, read the bible but couldn't remember her favourite passage....

Watch this video as Mika Brzezinsk refused on air to lead with the story saying she wanted Iraq first and then tried to burn her script.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6VdNcCcweL0

you can read more about Mika Brzezinsk at wikipedia here -
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mika_Brzezinski she's a very nice looking woman who just suffers from a difficult to pronounce surname.

you can read about how international campaigners put Paris in Jail here :-
http://www.indymedia.org.uk/en/2007/05/370125.html
& here which though written in Spanish does offer you a reminder of art activist "Banksy" and his campaign against the heiress - http://barcelona.indymedia.org/newswire/display/303006/...x.php
though of course most right thinking indymedia people didn't see an issue worth worrying about. Which I find quite strange - Paris Hilton and the attention given her is actually a very serious problem. which is why I send her hatemail and devote my free time to spamming her email.

Your family sign a buy-out deal with Blackstone worth 29 billion dollars or 26 billion sterling. & then your share price jumps from $2.18 to $36.05 despite the deal not being announced till after US closing time for the independence day holiday.
Blackstone do money & risk. They went on that same stockmarket less than a fortnight ago and made the most money that has been seen in the USA on such a flotation with 3.082 billion euros. They make legoland too (legoland windsor, california blaa blaa) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Blackstone_Group_...anies they make superconductors and can afford the lab conditions to turn out good ones. You get the best results in outer space just beyond the mutual gravity thing we have going with the Moon. Blackstone will now own more than 600,000 hotel rooms as the Hilton clan mortgage their 480,000 hotel room cards and cash in their chips for a tidy little profit guvnor. I've always thought of hotel owners as brothel-keepers who don't charge hourly rates. Still if you're count Bismarck or someone you could probably get a suite on tick. Sure most of you don't know who count Bismarck was. this is gossip http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/main.jhtml?view=DETAILS...2.xml we've a revolution to win we need glamour Still even though we are all against all that glamour, highlife, swilling it & making your own CD's stuff & we happily pass the pages of the newspaper rags every day without giving thought to the world's largest risk equity entities who put the teeth in that vapid girl's head ..... pause....poise....pose doesn't mean they don't actually know your name. for 'tis written on your shirt.
Ah! we see you've a reservation.

sleep with the fishies.
