QuoteThe sun will go into "hibernation" mode around 2030, and it has already started to get sleepy. At the Royal Astronomical Society's annual meeting in July, Professor Valentina Zharkova of Northumbria University in the UK confirmed it - the sun will begin its Maunder Minimum (Grand Solar Minimum) in 15 years. Other scientists had suggested years ago that this change was imminent, but Zharkova's model is said to have near-perfect accuracy.
So what is a "solar minimum"?
Our sun doesn't maintain a constant intensity. Instead, it cycles in spans of approximately 11 years. When it's at its maximum, it has the highest number of sunspots on its surface in that particular cycle. When it's at its minimum, it has almost none. When there are more sunspots, the sun is brighter. When there are fewer, the sun radiates less heat toward Earth.
But that's not the only cooling effect of a solar minimum. A dim sun doesn't deflect cosmic rays away from Earth as efficiently as a bright sun. So, when these rays enter our atmosphere, they seed clouds, which in turn cool our planet even more and increase precipitation in the form of rain, snow and hail. - See more at: http://www.nationmultimedia.com/opinion/Cold-sun-rising-30272650.html#sthash.Q96iRr3C.dpuf
This is predicated upon genuine science, something your typical Marxist moron cannot abide...

Hello Tacoma, do you have a point?
And did you read the article? It feels more like an op-ed, with only loose references to science, and definitely not supporting its title and
your title

Perhaps if you had read the article Tacoma's point would have been as obvious to you as it was to the rest of us.

There needs to be a troll forum just for them. A real life fantasy world where there are no facts except the ones you make up and everybody's opinion has to agree with yours. Wait a minute, I think I know what obama can do after playing president.

Golly. Just as we were getting to really dislike him. :lol:

If you mean run an internet political forum, ask Solar or Taxed to tell you the tale of JFA and how he wound up his only member, probably in under a month. Agree or begone! Achtung!
On the other hand, that many arselickers in one place makes it really to find and round them up. Your idea is therefore not without merit: Hussein certainly needs rounding up, and soonest.

I thought maybe you were being a little quick on the trigger at dumping Mariner,
so I clicked on his name to see his other posts, and found this among them:
Hmmm, nope. I also haven't heard Oprah say nothing of the kind.
I hear her saying that there's a level of disrespect for the white house that wouldn't happen if Obama wasn't black. Which seems about right, a very reasonable conclusion.
I then hear the "commentators" misrepresenting her words to her having said that: now, I don't know if they have just comprehension difficulties or are just maliciously making her say what she hasn't said. I'm inclined to some the former, the other the latter.
So, the conclusion is:
some extremist commentators say the left says "if you don't approve Obama, then you're racist" which is about the same what we had before the videos were posted and not the same as to say that "the left says 'if you don't approve Obama, then you're racist' ", which hasn't happened.

Apparently, to Mariner,
the facts are "extremist commentators."
I've seen lots of "reputable" commentators in the dead tree newspapers say exactly that, very explicitly.
So I guess I won't miss Mariner.
Oh yeah, and the fact that he was on the forum for only one day, and made 89 posts!

These trolls are a dime a dozen, and not one of them contribute in anyway to the forum, and that is the most important aspect for anyone joining the forum.
If they can't promote TEA, then quite honestly, they, or anyone else of their ilk have no place on this forum.

We have seen so many of them they jump right at us when they show up. We have learned it is to the forum's disadvantage to let them stick around as they run good guests away.

Exactly. We let them stay for a short time as chew toys. Beyond that, they serve no purpose.

Liberals love to come in and arrogantly try to "educate" conservatives.
I think of them as the birdie in a game of badminton.
Fun to wack them around for a day or so, them put them out their misery.

That reminds me of something I've seen several times
in the daily email the Ohio Supreme Court sends out.
Occasionally, the Court will find that a person is a "vexatious litigator"
and bar him from filing any more cases with the court.
Actually, he can still file cases from then on,
but the court can just ignore them if they want.
They don't have to bother dismissing cases from that person,
but they could accept one if they see any merit in it.
