NASA:Global Warming Stopped in 1998
It's all over but the crying, for Al Gore. Fool. This interview with a respected scientist in Australia reveals why he's been curiously quiet lately. Because he is, has been, and always will be: Full of Shit.
A great many founts of authority, from the Royal Society to the UN, most heads of government along with countless captains of industry, learned professors, commentators and journalists will be profoundly embarrassed. Let us hope it is a prolonged and chastening experience.
With catastrophe off the agenda, for most people the fog of millennial gloom will lift, at least until attention turns to the prospect of the next ice age. Among the better educated, the sceptical cast of mind that is the basis of empiricism will once again be back in fashion. The delusion that by recycling and catching public transport we can help save the planet will quickly come to be seen for the childish nonsense it was all along.

Holy Crap! Winnie Cooper Grew Up!
Danica McKellar, (probably best known for playing Winnie Cooper on The Wonder Years) has very much.. grown up.
In 2005 Danica did a photoshoot for Stuff Magazine.
The editors of Stuff want to know which hottie from the 90s Stuff readers would like to see in their magazine. Now, I met Danica back when I worked at ABC, and for some reason, The Protective Big Brother in me wants to say, "No way am I going to encourage people to check you out in sexy pictures!" But there's no denying that she's grown up to become quite a beautiful woman.
I did a photo session for "Stuff" magazine last Wednesday-- the first time in my life, ever, taking pictures in lingerie!!
Get this: She's a math genius... Just wrote a book called "Math Doesn't Suck"
Graduated with a Masters? in Math from UCLA....
