Just don't tell me the debate's over…
( The essence of propaganda is incessant repetition and misrepresentation. Strawman Argumentation is specifically designed to prevent debate...an essential of scientific method BTW...by insisting on one sided representation and whining anything else is unfair. Tell it to any judge LOL  )
Ex-IPCC head Pachauri charged with sex assaults
March 1, 2016 11:13 PM

Here at ACM we always thought Rajendra Pachauri was a wrong-un, especially with his bizarre and creepy penchant for writing steamy novels. Looks like he moved from writing about it to doing it, whether the lady in question wanted it or not. Indian police said Tuesday they had charged the former head of the UN […]
Kevin and Leo: two climate clowns
February 29, 2016 4:40 PM

Sad Aussie has-been Kevin Rudd must be angling for an invitation to hang with DiCaprio at his mansion, sycophantically praising Leo’s idiotic and juvenile climate rant at the Oscars ceremony. Latika at the Sydney Morning Herald can’t get enough of it, natch. Kevin Rudd has described Leonardo DiCaprio as the “real deal on climate change” and praised […]
Oscars: Leo gives the speech from two decades ago
February 29, 2016 2:24 AM

It’s taken so long for Leo to win an Oscar, he turned up with a speech about climate change that was twenty years out of date. When he finally got the nod from the Academy, he trotted out the predictably tedious climate alarmism that might have been stirring or relevant a decade or so ago, but which is […]
CSIRO boss issues apology for ‘religion’ jibe
February 11, 2016 5:31 PM

The Climate Inquisitors got their way and forced an apology – an update on this story from yesterday. But it is a pyrrhic victory, since it is the zealotry that infects the alarmist cause. From the Puff Ho: CSIRO chief executive Larry Marshall has apologised for calling the reaction to planned climate science job cuts […]
CSIRO boss: warming alarmism ‘more like religion than science’
February 10, 2016 7:46 PM

Finally worked it out, then, have we? Here are some ACM articles from years past on the subject: From 2012: Maurice Newman on the climate religion From 2011: Cardinal criticises religious climate zealots From 2009: Headline of the Day Even the CSIRO boss is surprised at the vehemence of the disciples of the Church of Alarmism. The ABC reports, through gritted […]

An inclusive approach to mental health: Not all in the brain
April 5, 2016 5:23 AM
submitted to Beyond Meds by Oxford University Press - By Michelle Maiese -- For many years, the prevailing view among both cognitive scientists and philosophers has been that the brain is sufficient for cognition, and that once we discover its secrets, we will be able to unravel the mysteries of the mind. Recently however, a growing number of thinkers have begun to challenge this prevailing view that mentality is a purely neural phenomenon. They emphasize, instead, that we are conscious in and through our living bodies. Mentality is not something that happens passively within our brains, but something that we do through dynamic bodily engagement with our surroundings. This shift in perspective has incredibly important implications for the way we treat mental health –
Detox…the nitty gritty
March 29, 2016 7:23 AM
I'm doing detox...hardcore, heavy metals, viruses, candida (and whatever else is being pulled out as I do this thing)...as it comes out so does the psychic sludge...all correlated with shit in the physical body, yes...really amazing and wonderful and beautiful...if also rough going...
That Awful Dread
March 29, 2016 5:50 AM
By Georgi Y. Johnson - Dread is a fusion of anger and fear, in a cloud of threatening horror, that moves between and through people. In the social field, it is channeled through hidden agendas of entities that have lost connection with a deeper truth and purpose. - Firmly rooted in the belief of either-or, or kill or be killed, the agenda of dread is mostly occupied with possession: the possession of another human; the possession of things; the possession of truth; or the possession of status.
Housing first: end homelessness (no requirements to be off street drugs, nor on psych drugs)
March 28, 2016 6:08 AM
The Canadian city featured in the video below has housed all their citizens. I worked for a harm reduction program in San Francisco in which no one was required to be off illegal drugs nor were they required to be on psych drugs (the drugs of the state which were often held over the heads of those who don't want to take them as reason to not give housing) ... The program brought down emergency hospitalizations by huge numbers by giving people one of their very most basic needs...a roof over their heads...I'm a believer in non-coercive loving care. Give people what they really need and they'll figure out the rest.
Easter: death and rebirth as archetype
March 27, 2016 9:43 AM
We usually face a deeply felt experience of death before encountering the archetype of rebirth. Neither the death nor the rebirth or resurrection are things that happen quickly. There may be dreams, waking subjective experiences or a short period in ones life when death or rebirth are felt very strongly – but the process as a whole is a psychological one which may take years to unfold and stabilise.
The aftermath: polypharmacology — protracted psychiatric drug withdrawal syndrome
March 23, 2016 3:01 PM
This was first published on David Healy's site, RxIsk: Making Medicine's Safer for All of Us, about 4 years ago. I've never published it on this site and thought I'd do so now so that it will be part of the archives here as well. It's a memoir of sorts up to that point 4 years ago.

Addiction: what is it?
March 22, 2016 6:12 AM

Addiction is a societal issue. Consumerism and capitalism is dependent on the addict in everyone. Recognizing this fundamental issue with our society is part of a much deeper social commentary that this speaks to. Gabor Mate, Marion Woodman and others speak to this expertly if you’d like to do further research. Our society needs healing, it’s not just particular individuals who need to heal. We are all connected. Inextricably so. This argument can be true and we can also note real differences in how people use drugs. There is no argument there on my part. Language is inherently imprecise and context must always be considered.

UK setting dangerous precedent in refusing basic information about drone use
April 1, 2016 3:15 AM

Will underwater drones bring a sea change to naval – and nuclear – warfare?
February 24, 2016 3:06 AM
Although aerial drones have taken off a lot faster than their maritime and ground-based equivalent, there are some signs that the use of naval drones – especially underwater – is about to take a leap forward. The US Navy has taken a particular interest in this

Paul Krugman sees the tactics of the Left*, with horror!

April 15, 2016 5:00 PM
Summary: In his column today Paul Krugman makes an important observation, although he’s oddly unaware of its full significance.   Paul Krugman explains “Why I Haven’t Felt The Bern” — He complains about Team Sanders. “In each case the story runs into big trouble if you do a bit of homework; if not completely wrong, […]
See the ugly cost of the next big flu pandemic. We can do more to prepare.
April 15, 2016 3:00 AM
Summary: Epidemics of Ebola and Zika remind us of a danger too long ignored in favor of more glamorous model-based threats like global warming and fear-based nightmare jihadis with WMDs. Recurring epidemics are facts of history. Here 3 economists, including Larry Summers, look at the likely consequences of another influenza epidemic (like that of 1918, […]
Good news! Coal bankruptcies point to a better future for our climate.2
April 14, 2016 3:00 AM
Summary: The bankruptcy of the world’s largest non-government-owned coal company illustrates one of the two big weaknesses in the nightmarish climate change scenario that dominates the headlines. It takes us even further off the path to the RCP8.5 scenario behind those stories, onto one going to a far better future. Climate forecasts (called “projections” by […]

Conclusions

The horrific coal-burning late 21st century described by RCP8.5 provides a valuable warning that we have to push technological progress for any hope of a better world. Representing it as a “business as usual” future is absurd — and materially misleading. But doing so has become business as usual for climate scientists and journalists — as documented here. That this scam has persisted so long is not surprising for journalists, but shows a deep dysfunctionality in climate science.

We can force reforms. We can end the climate policy wars: demand a test of the models.
( 2  Someone has passed the Idiot Test with flying colours . And no - projections are not forecasts. They do not even apply to this planet because of intrinsic flawed assumptions and oversimplifications, let alone forecast the future. Meteorologists.and physical and atmospheric scientists ..please snigger quietly. )

Summary: Here is another brief note looking at the revolutions of our time that are reshaping our world. This looks at gender roles, changes that will take generations to work out and with implications probably beyond imagining. Two of the utopian goals of the late 1960s are within reach, but their success is not fully […]
A guaranteed minimum income: faux solution for the new industrial revolution
April 11, 2016 3:00 AM

Summary: Solutions are proposed as the shockwave of the new industrial revolution becomes visible on the horizon. Naturally, we first get small and comfortable ones — such as a guaranteed minimum income, which guarantee high and growing levels of inequality. We might even implement these, leaving the resulting social turmoil for the next generation. First […]
