It is about time Max got some critics! ;-) But really, the US is not gonna give up Midway Island. They are probably going to lease it back from an offshore Asian consortioum. I loved the film.

(So, how much for the girl???) O.K. what was the purpose of this satirical rant? It is one thing to say "Oh that Max he don't know shit!" and try to make false examples and accusations. But did this individual offer a single piece of sound ethical advice to the "poor". Like Max did some months back telling people to start planting cotton and potatoes? (which I did plant organic potatoes, bye the way) The only argument I have against gold is this: wouldn't it suck, I mean really suck if you had all this gold and all you wanted was a chicken and some potatoes because you forgot to store some seeds and raise chickens. So Joe-Bag-O-Chickens says "Hey! I'll give you this here chicken for that ounce American Eagle" adding (only to make matters worse) "I only nailed her once, ha! Once!" Max- Stacy is the smartest.

What a joke. There is no such thing as the American Empire, its a fabrication which has fooled clowns like this youtube producer. The American Republic, is the only state that threatened the British Empire in history...and now the financial oligarchy (which is the british empire) has completed its stealth 100 year tip toe take over and is intentionally destroying the USA. Central banking, free trade, globalisation...its all British. Hamiltonian banking, protectionism, Lincoln's greenback....this is the American Republic. Its a shame people dont see things the way they are. The real America was a beautiful republic. I probably sound like a heart on sleeve american patriot. But im Australian.

Climate Prediction “Resolution Independent” Trickle Data Interface for Distributed Computing

Abstract
Current climate prediction programs that are deployed in distributed computing have very high attrition rates (~10% participant loss per ~15% simulation completion). On top of this these programs in their current form have almost non-existent data return. In spite of the advent of using trickle ‘work units’ to grant participant credit, not much has been achieved with respect to advancing the technology.

=========
I am officially not involved one way or the other, but I keep a very keen eye on the Haas Glacier & the NZ and Australian Antarctic Territories.

Since the 1960s the Haas Glacier has not gotten bigger, and the DOC is concerned.
