"Trump on Friday night vowed to seek approval from Congress to spend $1-trillion in new spending to rebuild America’s crumbling network of roads, bridges, airports and other infrastructure as a way to create jobs and make some needed repairs. “We are going to fix our country. It’s time. We have no choice. It’s time,” Trump said in Orlando, Florida."

This is an old and tiresome canard. There are 186 US dioceses. With some exceptions, no diocese has enough candidates; much less actual ordinands to meet current needs. So, a simplistic numerical comparison can give us your *comment*. CARA has run numerous studies and the results clearly document that over seminary time, very conservative dioceses such as Lincoln do no better at ordination time than most other dioceses when looked at over a 5 or 10 year period average. Lincoln attracts a higher number of seminarians but their actual ordination numbers aren't any better than other dioceses. What you also leave out in this cherry picked category is what happens later with Lincoln newly ordained priests in their first five years. There is no mention of tensions, parish issues, etc. What appeals in Lincoln would never succeed in most US dioceses and higher numbers don't mean that Lincoln is a better church. Some liberal dioceses on the coasts do as well as Lincoln. Nice try!
10
How do you reconcile your comment with the fact that the very traditional diocese of Lincoln, Nebraska, has the most seminarians per capita in the country, while liberal dioceses on the coasts suffer?

Did you benefit from the money earned from these events? Did you allow your bills to paid or anything of the sort? I paused while reading this due to as well, I was thinking about what dastardly type of husband would agree to prostitute his wife to feed the family?
10
Amber is lying, she did not start prostituding herself because her ex husband was hurt and the family needed the money! I know because I am the ex husband. It's true I was hurt on the job but I had money coming in from workmans comp that easily covered the bills. The truth is her and her son wanted to go on vacation to Seattle and I wouldn't pay for that. That is why she did it she was and is no hero. And her and her son never went on the trip and we seperated and divorced shortly after that.

It still reacquired Congress to listen to the president as he convinced them to take a course of action. IF Congress wanted to they did not have to follow the presidents wishes.
4
A rosy point of view harking back to the yesteryear before one president changed all that with a phone. And with a pen. A day when the will of the people, expressed through Congress, was of consequence. Now all that is, sadly behind us. The precedents have been set; resistance is futile. You brought it on yourselves, it took a lot of work, now it's time to lie back and enjoy it.

Actually, in the reality I live in anyway, the President had a meeting with the gang of 12 congressional leaders in September and revealed to them that indeed it was Russia that had hacked into not just the DNC and Podesta but the election systems of several states as well as the RNC and several individual Congress people. McConnell told the President that if he revealed this information to the public he would accuse the POTUS of interfering in the election in favor of Clinton. Got that? A major security breech by Russia had happened to the point that the POTUS felt compelled to take the stunning information to the leaders of the Congress but the Senate Majority Leader threatened the POTUS rather than getting on board with an immediate all hands on deck investigation why a foreign country was interfering in our elections. Party over country once again for McConnell. Just like the seditionist vow to make the POTUS a one termer on inauguration eve on Jan. 20, 2009. The country be damned.
6
It was just weeks and days before the election we were told there was no way any hacker could infiltrate our ballots to the extent they would have any significant affect on the outcome. So why now are so many losing their minds about that very possibility? I can't say I'm excited Trump is the Pres-E, but I am so relieved HRC isn't.

Yes, the Supreme Court will ultimately decide if the PFD payment is subject to line item veto as is any other appropriation. If that additional money must be distributed how does that help our fiscal crisis? That said, I am beyond tired of any effort to provide government to provide for the common benefit being labeled as "socialism" and that people are being "enslaved" when they are required to sacrifice for the common good. The fact is that you and I did nothing but consume oxygen and fill out a form to "earn" a PFD check. As to that canard about the PFD compensating us for our loss of mineral rights, did you or I actually drill for oil on our private property and are being denied profit by the state? Go make that oil discovery in your back yard before you make that claim. Also, since we can't own the mineral rights if we receive "free" land from the state by voucher or other means, what have we got other than a view? Time to deal with and within reality.

I think you might need a mirror to see the log :) I simply stated what many Christians did with this election and that our God is powerful enough to put in place people He chooses according to His plan. God tells us to do exactly what I said we did in...... 2 Chronicles 7:14 "If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land." And to pray for our leaders. 2 Timothy 2 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks, be made for all men; 2 For kings, and for all that are in authority; that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and honesty. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour Be careful with your judgment of others.

Is he not so brittle that he is unable to restrain himself from responding publicly to petty provocations? Along with his general contempt for facts, has he also not demonstrated an astonishing ignorance of history, geography, economics, the law, the Constitution? And, do these shortcomings not add up to a serious vulnerability in the most powerful office on the planet that constitutes a threat to us all?

LOL.....only a far right deluded type would call someone a loser and reference Jesus in the same sentence and be blind to the fact. Go show that to your Minister and ask him/her what they think? BTW Jesus was most closely aligned to Socialism (as was Einstein) as that is the ideology that looks after the poor while recognizing that a rich man has the same chance of entering heaven as a camel passing through the eye of a needle. Don't worry, just like politics, Jesus escapes your ken. peace

If the U.S. is encouraging Japan and South Korea to acquire nuclear weapons, how can there be international sanctions? OTOH, maybe Trump wants to SELL nuclear weapons to those countries and make some money for the U.S.

3 years or longer for a-bomb at least, neither of them have material nor equipment to extract weapon grade uranium.. As for H bomb, infinite then, even India or Pakistan couldn't make H bomb working today although they have nukes for quite long time. That is said assuming without international sanction. It will be another story when under sanctions.

Of course they can. Same as today's Canadians for the sins of their ancestors have to pay restitution to today's indigenous people for things done to their ancestors.

All of the evils you describe took place before or during WWII, which ended 71 years ago. There are very few Japanese alive today who lived in those times, and none who were in positions of power back then. In other words, the current Japanese population cannot be blamed for the sins of their ancestors.

People regularly go bankrupt in the US because of a health issue. HMOs are very fond of declining to cover life-saving procedures. The American system is twice as expensive as the Canadian one and only the very few are able to access the best care.
4
Taxpayers could get a break and health care service improved by switching to the private sector. The taxpayer break would come from the fact that those who are able to pay there own way will pay. Those who are unable to pay would be supported by the taxpayer.US data suggests that 83% of citizens can pay there own way. Only 17% would need help. Better service would come from the use of the private sector. The US medical system which is in the private sector is the best in the world. It may cost more but this would be offset by the savings through about 83% of citizens paying their own way. So Canada has a choice, continue with our health care with all its delays, or have health care in the private sector with better service, possibly higher cost to users and less cost to the taxpayer.

This post is a fine example of why liberals are losing so much ground right now. I suspect that condescending posts like this from an extremely vocal minority decimate the integrity of the overall liberal message. Posts that generally insult large groups of people that don't agree with you prevent important conversations from happening. Doing this slows or even halts genuine progress. You could learn a lot from Obama if you would actually listen to his message. While I don't agree with some of his policies, I find the man to be an absolute class act. . Yes, I know that R's and others do it too. Some are just as bad, even worse. Fact is, the group that is less pompous seems to lock the majority. D's got the popular vote, which really means that Clinton basically lost on a technicality. Have you considered the house and the senate?

What rates are you quoting dear boy? There are myriad of rates charged by myriad of entities to a multitude of creditors. Whilst you may pay 18% on your credit card the more substantive of us pay nothing for borrowing. , A bit more detail and the sources of your "data" would advance your case more than derision and hysteria.
10
"Such rates have only been seen during the Civil War and the Volker era " Hahaha! No, not even close. 7% is not outrageous, it is quite normal and within the average historical range. Unless you think the Civil War happened in 1990 (7%) or 1989 (8%), or perhaps the year before when it was 9.75%?. At 10% interest rates that is 2 trillion going to interest alone. That is more than half of the federal budget. So in any scenario, whoever raises the interest rates (to WHATEVER you would agree is the "historical average, because it damn sure isn't zero) will crash the economy and you have basically no counter-argument whatsoever. None.

i agree, stop this fed payments as long as they cut my income taxes too by the same % as those direct health care dollars transfered.
4
The Feds should counter with a small escalator and large amounts for specific programs, perhaps even eliminate the escalator, cut taxes and let each province raise their own revenue. They could give the provinces a choice: agree to what is on the table or take this additional option. I value health care but this dance is tiring, let the provinces decide on their own dime or give up their constitutional control. The money is coming from the same people either way. If the provinces want more moneylet them justify it to their own electorate.

No. Unlike the US, Canada bases taxation on residence, and the place the money came from, but not on citizenship. If you don't reside in Canada and don't earn money in Canada, you don't pay Canadian taxes or health care premiums.
4
Hold on there buckaroo. There is a little matter of taxation. If I live outside Canada I still pay Canadian Federal and Provincial income tax AND I pay a health care premium for a service I never use. As long as I have to fork out my money, then I get a vote. Simple as that.

Trump ran to make a joke of the presidential race, everyone agrees to that. He was just as surprised as anyone when people were believing him. Just shows how much people will be fooled, especially those who don't follow politics, don't know the issues, There was a quote I read once :half the people do not read, and half the people do not vote, lets hope they are not the same.

Whazzie: i am assuming your silly sad face means that the universe is in order?
6
Whazzie: listen carefully my friend? If Bozak played last night the score would have been 5-1 for Randy's team. The problem was not the faceoffs, but the poor shooting and coverage which would have been compounded with Bozaks poor checking and holding and floating with the puck too long and further compounded with his weaker work ethic and shooting. Kadri and Komo have to stay out of the penalty box, especially when they play strong power-play teams. Both tenders and coaches did the best they could under the circumstances. Randy clearly had the smarter team. This one is over, focus on the next game and hope for a better outcome. The Habs can take care of their own game.

"[W]hile this is technically true it is not actually true in practice for the vast majority of voters. Some vote for local candidates solely on their own merits, most do not, voting instead for the person representing the party they wish to see in power." 'Technically true' means true. Your use of 'actually' is a wilful delusion. I might think I'm voting for a party, a PM, or a unicorn but 'technically' (i.e. truly), my vote goes to a person, whom, if elected, is free to vote as he or she pleases in the HoC, free to change parties the day after the election, free to choose to sit as an Independent, could be booted from his or her party, and if he or she dies, resigns, or goes to prison, there'll be a by-election because that seat in the HoC belongs to the MP, not the party. Before we consider changing our electoral system, it might be wise to make sure everybody knows how it 'technically' (i.e. truly) works currently . . .
4
"First, parties don't get any votes, only local candidates do, so no party gets 39% of any vote." As I noted with regard to a comment you posted above, while this is technically true it is not actually true in practice for the vast majority of voters. Some vote for local candidates solely on their own merits, most do not, voting instead for the person representing the party they wish to see in power.

Once again Kathleen you selectively forget the last campaign. Who were the candidates? Who was supporting them? What industries support which candidate? What party supported which candidates? If you went back you'd find it was far from the unions alone who got Walker elected. It was the conservative ideas Walker promised and the voters latched onto.
4
Who got Walker/Mallot elected? Democrats and the State Union worker brotherhood and sisterhood. They need lots and lots and lots of money to feed the beast. We work for them. We earn for them. We drive for them. This is what happens when Unions rule. Citizens work to feed the beast.

Eventually BC will run out of Chinese millionaires propping up your economy. Then you will wonder if these policies which hurt the economy and have little impact on the environent are worth it.
4
BC has a more aggressive carbon tax and the economy is doing just fine. The carbon tax is offset with income tax cuts. If you drive less your overall tax load will go down a lot. If you insist on driving more and wrecking our earth, you will pay. Sounds fair to me. Currently we are making withdrawals from our environmental bank account and leaving future generations to pay the interest. Grossly unfair. If today's children end up dancing on our graves -- or sending all us old geezers there early, one can't say we won't deserve it.

-We have fishermen like slaves on ships in our very own harbors, in the midst of "aloha" and "people that care". Those fishermen from other countries are still trapped there. TRUMP did NOT create that problem. -We have the only GET tax in the country, that is not a sales tax. Our tax is charged over and over at every level and drives prices up. TRUMP did NOT Create that problem. -We have a RAIL sorry, we have a JOKE that was pulled on the people, that is like 3x over budget and still climbing, and is already falling apart before it is even 50% completed. and rail cars might have to be scrapped already. TRUMP did NOT Create that problem. And the list goes on. and on, and on, and TRUMP did not create ANY of the problems we have here locally. It seems pretty blatant and obvious that we should be a little more focused on actually fixing problems at home before we try to tell the rest of the country how things should be done. STOP Crying and whining and start LEADING by example !

Sorry, but I am finding all of these discussion about how the sky is falling, to be rather amusing and sad any more. Everyone so obsessed on how they can "fix" the process, "fix" the system, basically "fix" the votes, nationally. Maybe all of you guys should focus on FIXING the local problems first and try to lead by example ? - We have the worst homeless problem in the entire country. TRUMP did NOT create that problem. In fact no republican did. and the ONLY reason we have all of the shelters available for the homeless that we do, is because Republican governor got them open. no one else did for decades. - We have the chief of police and his prosecutor wife, under federal investigation for now, a bunch of things. TRUMP did NOT create that problem. - We have COFA and a massive financial drain on the system. We spend $100 Million a year, we get back about $13 Million to cover expenses. TRUMP did NOT create that problem.

Actually education is an instructive or enlightening experience. Your definition is popular with the "spoon feed regurgitate" movement which prizes repetition over inquiry. Obviously your "education" at the hands of the local polemicists has achieved their desired goals. You sir are a certified "Hawaiian Intellectual". . Congratulations !!!

education is the acquisition of knowledge through learning. you should try it. it makes you a better person so that you don't have to resort to trolling educated intellectuals that are working for the greater good rather than for the perpetuation of pure evil and imperialist, warmongering global domination.

Siding with one set of clients over the other on the merits of the cases before them is what judges are supposed to do in civil courts. The problem in many, but perhaps not all, family courts, is that the judges tow the line on the 'pay the instigator' protocol that serves the lawyers, and ultimately only the lawyers. Those family court judges use the power of the state to administer a private shake-down operation benefiting lawyers at the expense of broken families. Like you, they say the clients are to blame, but their conduct is repeated and, with the benefit of the pay-the-instigator formula to provide guidance, predictable. In these situations, one cannot go far wrong by following the money ... straight into the lawyers pockets.
4
I agree that allegations in family law can be much more outlandish than in employment / labour law. However, the ultimate blame is with the clients in each case, rather than the lawyers. The cases described in this article are ones where the courts have sided with one set of clients at the expense of the other set of clients.

It's so frustrating trying to reach people about this subject. I was threatened by legal action by a family member who told me to get a Zofran prescription instead of pot. In some states really great parents who test positive for pot can loose their kids. I read a horror story about a texas family loosing their son this way to a foster parent who murdered their son. I think women are afraid to admit using pot during their pregnancies so it's understudied. It's so common to smoke during pregnancy and I know at least 20 mothers off the top of my head who have and all those kids (grown to infants) are normal or exceptional. I really think that pot could actually improve brain function some how because I see so many kids/adults who's mom's smoked during pregnancy who are ahead of the pack with coordination and language. A lot of these pot smoking moms also tend to be more educated on nutrition and medicine. If only we could be more open and real studies and not propaganda were available.

You can hope, but you'll be disappointed. Just as you will in "Honest Abe" Trumpski's promises: "After campaigning on a promise to clean up Washington and rid it of special interests, Donald Trump has stacked his team with the likes of former Goldman Sachs banker Steven Mnuchin and ExxonMobil CEO Rex Tillerson. Now, just weeks before taking office, Trump has decided to sideline his pledge to “drain the swamp,” his ally Newt Gingrich said Wednesday. “I’m told he now just disclaims that,” Gingrich (R-Ga.) the former House speaker, told NPR’s “Morning Edition.” “He now says it was cute, but he doesn’t want to use it anymore.” Gingrich posted to Twitter this week what he described to NPR as “a very cute tweet” about the alligators in Washington. But someone ― Gingrich didn’t disclose who ― sent him a note saying they were tired of hearing such talk."

Mustafa Kemal was a towering figure, one of the most impressive leaders of the 20th Century. His over-riding goal, though it seems a little naive today, was complete independence: " ...by complete independence, we mean of course complete economic, financial, juridical, military, cultural independence and freedom in all matters. Being deprived of independence in any of these is equivalent to the nation and country being deprived of all its independence." Ataturk lived in a much simpler time. Complete independence in the matters he mentioned isn't possible for any nation today. And that is a good thing.

JT must pass a law this week that the americans can have Canada Oil at the world agreed price, not some made up in America price. Has to be done now before we have anymore discussions on XL. Father Trudeau would have never allowed Canada Oil to be exported to the US with out Canada receiving a fair price. We in the east next door to the largest refinery in Canada pay the world price for oil so this is and must be the export price.

Denmark pays McDonald's workers $20/hr, a Big Mac costs $0.35 more there than in America. Australia pays them $16/hr or so, Big Mac also costs nominally more. Meanwhile, those McDonalds workers in healthier nations have money in their pocket they're spending in large and small businesses generating more profits, more employment, etc. Uncritically accepting the talking points pushed by Chucky and Davy Koch to argue that Americans deserve to be serfs is rooted in ignorance, not information.

Exactly SpenAK. The burger flipper gets his raise,, and he is happy he now gets a "living wage". Then he notices the cost of burgers has increased to cover the increased wages. He then demands more money to pay the ever increasing cost of the burger he likes to eat. Until he gets so expensive it finally makes sense for the restaurant owner to replace him with a burger flipping machine. Now he loses his job and complains he was replaced by a machine... lot of good that "living wage" did him. Perhaps he should have got some skills to know how to build or maintain the machines.

The current government has not completed a fiscal year completely within their control so you cannot say what the deficit will be. It will likely be less than $25 billion based on performance so far this fiscal. When did the agreement with the First Nations die sudden death? The provinces hardly came to the table with a flexible attitude. 18 Super Hornets are being bought on an interim basis, there are still plans to compete the major procurement.

Not sure if it is a new Communism? Here is one similarity... It becomes even more apparent when one compares the core organizing principles of these two ideologies of Carbonism and Communism. While Communism seeks to marshal or harness the economic and political power of the nation-state by organizing through the idea of the worker. Carbonism although similarly structured, takes the organizing principle to the next level – first by substituting the nation-state for the world, and then by directly linking the combined economic and political power of each individual in the world, to the carbon footprint each creates in the world. And in the global context of Carbonism, this individual can either be a person, corporation or business. As an aside, in many legal systems of this world, the corporation has the legal standing of an individual.
5
Carbonism is the new Communism With the latest climate conference over, and the agenda set for the next year, it is becoming clear just what climate change really means. With the conference putting in place the functional structures needed for the development of global carbon regulation, climate change is now finally showing its true colors… It is the first truly global ideology. Until now, it was difficult to see just exactly what evolutionary trajectory climate change would take. But with Brexit and the opening of a new postmodern path for the Western world, one can now see clearly through this new lens that the issue of climate change is nothing but the ultimate when it comes to the concept of political ideologies. When describing or defining this new ideology, a modernist will call it climate change, but a postmodern philosopher, will see it clearly as Carbonism. And in nutshell…Carbonism is the new Communism! So yes Mr. Trudeau climate change is an ideology.

there is no such thing as a zero sum game, wealth and values grow and shrink but there is never a fix amount.
5
The stock market is a zero sum game. Economic growth around the world is a zero sum game. It is impossible to have all societies and peoples in all countries equal. The average Joe and Jane in Canada and the US have benefited greatly in having our companies moved their production offshore. We all invest monies in stocks, mutual funds, pension funds etc. These investment vehicles hold equity in companies etc. Businesses strive to earn profits which improve their valuation which improves our RRSP values, our pension holding values etc. The China market enticed these companies of whom we have invested our hard earned dollars. Can't blame China. It's the system our society endorses. This new era of Trumponomics will highlight the ugly truth that our entire global system is one big zero sum game.

Does domestic violence only happen in the Muslim community in Canada? Have there been no deaths of women by the hands of men in other racial, religious and ethnic groups in our country?

If he keeps up with this irrisponsible (for obvious reasons) position, both JT and the LPC should be concerned with a Breach of Fuduciary Duty class action. "A fiduciary (Government Minister) must not allow any conflict of interest (preference to Chinese interests, etc.) to infect their duties towards the beneficiary (Canadian taxpayers) and must exercise a high standard of care and good faith in protecting or promoting the interests of the beneficiary". A potentially arguable case.

Many of them, immigrants, get money from foreign sources or numbered companies. You are so oblivious about the current situation. I hope the government is not as naive as you are. Also, many of them homes are to be flipped within a year. So renting out is not an option for many investors. You would think this only happens in Vancouver or Burnaby. No, Maple Ridge, Mission, Chilliwack, Langley etc.
10
Some own more than 10 detached homes from Vancouver to Chilliwack, many of which are empty. ________________________________ Hmm? I do not doubt that some realtors do speculate in real estate. That is a occupational hazard. But leaving them empty is not likely. All the real estate people I know have rental property portfolios, they do not have the cash to sit on 10 vacant properties. The vacant properties are more attributable to owners who only live part time in Vancouver.

Is your interpretation of Patent apply to GM who leads all companies in total U.S. clean energy patents granted since 2002? Maybe your interpretation came from GM after reading news on GM's Newly Acquired Patent Could Be a Problem for Uber
4
Are you serious, it's well known these days that patents are filed to block competition or head off lawsuits more than anything else. Toyota staked a place in this world based upon a premise that their technology would take off and now it hasn't done what was expected of it so they are offering it up as a hope to recoup their losses. They have ignored the electric game that others, notably Tesla and now the Germans and GM have pursued and seems to be gaining strength so they have to cut their losses and hope their fuel cell vehicles take off before the electric crowd gain too much momentum.

As was Drain The Swamp (after I hire them)...Lock Her Up (she can't beat me if she's in Prison), Make America Great Again (ask minorities, women, child laborers, virtually any unprotected class how Great America was) ...talk about slogans for simple people? A supposed billionaire telling poor working class people (who he has screwed over at every opportunity for the last 40 years) that he gets them, and will bring their jobs back from overseas? He'll reverse all the regulations and tax and give you all the trickle down economics that never worked. But those same working class people aren't quick enough to simply fact check and realize his words are utter crap! His own people making statements about "you can't take what Trump says literally!" well now, maybe he and all of his supporters who clearly can't read anything that didn't come from Brietbart or Drudge...should actually study up prior to running their mouths...oh but he tells it like it is right?

" Hope, & change" was nothing more than a slogan for the simple of mind. 29 days !

Another debt downgrade can't be far off in OntariOwe either - reality check time for all the dolts that voted for Wynne find out that the crushing Hydro rates her incompetence created was only one small aspect of a much larger disaster.

You convienently forgot to mention the carbon tax, which will add costs to EVERYTHING, in the interest of satisfying the greenies, yet doing NOTHING to change our climate

Except if you knew anything about Italian history you would know he brought neither order nor efficiency to any aspect of Italian life. The trains were still late.

Italy could use a Mussolini clone nowadays to bring order and efficiency back to the country. Like so many other Western European countries, Italy has seen its crime rate soar thanks to the invasion of Merkel's muzzie "migrants".

You should be asking,How on earth did he travel from Germany to Italy through France(2 border crossings) without the ID he conveniently left in the truck? I'll tell you how. It didn't happen the way you were told. You're reading the real fake news.

You are not fighting for your existence by fighting against the TMT. The TMT will pay rent to Hawaii, it will pump money for education into the local community, it will generate tax revenue and it will put Hawaii up on a high pedestal on the world stage. If anything it will help Kanaka Maoli. The TMT is not being built on any known burial ground, it will not contaminate any water (as testified to by a hydrology expert in the current contested case hearing), and it will prevent no one from carrying out their cultural practices. It sits on 1% of the total science reserve and less than 1% of the entire mauna. It is a telescope, not an oil pipeline. The product of the telescope will not contaminate anything since that product is knowledge, freely available to all of humanity. The only thing that might be harmed with the building of the TMT is the Hawaiian sovereignty movement, and that's not necessarily a bad thing if they are going to obstruct science with their politics.
4
We Kanaka Maoli are fighting for our very existence, while you are fighting for a building. We found the perfect place to live and thrived. Then the terrorist came and wanted Hawai'i for themselves. They stole our kingdom. They raped our lands. They beat our children over and over again. They outlawed our language and they will not allow us to bring this terrorist act up in their court of law. Then you write this piece of rubbish, then publish it like we are wrong. 'Aole TMT (NO TMT)

The Russian Academy of Sciences has stated no such thing. You're referring to a single retired Russian astrophysicist who has no background in Earth, atmospheric, or climate science. He isn't even a member of the Academy.

but what science can you believe,the Russian academy of science says the earth is entering an ice age. i wish you guys would get your story straight.
