At FCC Broadband Hearing, Speeches But No Consensus

Searching for consensus
2008-06-09 06:51:00 A recent conversation with a friend has made me think about how the public perceive search engines.

Consensus Between PPP & PML (N) in Linking with Lobbying Firms In Washi
2008-05-07 22:00:00 It is the norm that a new government in a country changes its lobbying link in Washington, DC as well. Presently, while the late Bhutto’s Pakistan People Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) are busy in keeping their alliance intact on the issue of restoration of sixty judges, they are also discussing the selection of two new lobbying and public relations firms in Washington to represent Pakistan. Currently Van Scoyoc Associates and Ogilvy Public Relations Worldwide do lobbying and public relations for Pakistan. The country’s contacts with these firms will end within next few weeks. As these two major parties have negotiated the number and distribution of their ministries, reflecting the number of seats they have won in the Pakistani national assembly, they are also discussing with each other as to which two lobbying firms they are both comfortable with in Washington. In Islamabad, PPP is a bigger partner than PML (N) because it won more seats in the national as...
France - Chine : Établissement d'un consensus sur le maintien des relations
2008-04-28 12:00:00 La Chine et la France ont convenu de "chérir et maintenir" le partenariat stratégique global bilatéral suite à une série d'incidents malheureux en France et aux visites récentes effectuées par des officiels français de haut niveau.

10,000 Year Old Tree Squashes Scientific Consensus
2008-04-22 22:13:00 It was warmer 10,000 years ago than the scientific consensus thought it was. Much warmer. A Spruce tree that took root just following the last Ice Age shows that ten millenniums ago, it was warmer than it is today: The world’s oldest tree has been found in Sweden, a tenacious spruce that first took root just after the end of the last ice age, more than 9,500 years ago. The tree has rewritten the history of the climate in the region, revealing that it was much warmer at that time and the ice had disappeared earlier than thought. Remember, there was a scientific consensus on this, just like there is a scientific consensus on “global warming.” The fact is, the consensus was wrong: It had been thought that this region was still in the grip of the ice age but the tree shows it was much warmer, even than today, he says. ?Spruces are the species that can best give us insight about climate change,? he says. The summers 9,500 years ago were warmer than today, though the...
Congestion Charge; What Is The Consensus?
2008-04-08 07:00:00 Congestion charge is not a very new idea.

Economists first mooted these ideas in the 1920’s. Serious research into this idea was done in the 1960’s. Historically, ...

Truman, the Atom Bomb and Scientific Consensus
2008-04-02 06:23:00 President Truman Did Not UnderstandDr. Leo Szilard, 62, is a Hungarian-born physicist who helped persuade President Roosevelt to launch the A-bomb project and who had a major share in it. In 1945, however, he was a key figure among the scientists opposing use of the bomb. Later he turned to biophysics, and this year was awarded the Einstein medal for "outstanding achievement in natural sciences."At NEW YORKQ Dr. Szilard, what was your attitude in 1945 toward the question of dropping the atomic bomb on Japan?A I opposed it with all my power, but I'm afraid not as effectively as I should have wished.Q Did any other scientists feel the same way you did?A Very many other scientists felt this way. This is particularly true of Oak Ridge and the Metallurgical Laboratory of the University of Chicago. I don't know how the scientists felt at Los Alamos.Q At the Oak Ridge and Chicago branches of the A-bomb project, was there any division of opinion?A I'll say this: Almost without exception,...

Consensus against fraudulent Iran NIE grows
2008-02-22 18:32:00 The international consensus that the recent National Intelligence Estimate on Iran was flat-out wrong, and that Iran is still a dangerous threat, is growing. Israel has always contended that the NIE was wrong, and that Iran's nuclear weapons program continues. After Iran launched a space satellite for the first time last week, Russia expressed concerns that the satellite launch vehicle was really just a testbed for a nuclear warhead delivery system. Just a few days ago, the exiled Iranian opposition group that had previously proven accurate in indicating the location of two Iranian nuclear sites and exposing twenty years of Iranian nuclear activity, revealed that Iran has accelerated its nuclear weapons program and is building a nuclear warhead production facility southeast of Tehran. And today a simulation commissioned by European Union experts has resulted in the conclusion that Iran could have enough enriched uranium for a nuclear bomb by the end of 2008. The Europeans had ...

No Consensus On Climate Change After All
2007-12-21 03:57:00 This is, surprisingly, a half way reasonable article on the climate change issue. Of course it came from a blog, heh. No doubt the author is being shouted down as we speak by AlGores acolytes of The New Church Of The Overheated Earth. It is amusing how the very people that claim to be so appreciative of diversity work so hard at stamping out any intellectual diversity that disagrees with their precious new religion. Not that hypocrisy is anything new or surprising coming from the left. I think AlGore invented hypocrisy right after inventing the internet. ~RJH New York Times article link Climate Consensus ‘Busted’? By Andrew C. Revkin The perennial tug of war over what average people should think and do about human-caused global warming has just experienced another big yank, this time from those saying actions to cut greenhouse gases are a costly waste of time. As I’ve written many times before, much of the tugging may be a distraction from fundamentals that are clearly establish...

Verse Day: an ode to banality and the poetry of consensus
2007-11-23 17:07:00 We live in an unfortunate age artistically. There is more freedom than ever, more tools for creation, more outlets to publish and display, but we have largely used this freedom to fetishize banality. The great leveling, as it were - everybody is an artist, everything is poetry. When I entered my Master’s program at Iowa State the prof who would eventually become my advisor, the estimable Dr. Neal Bowers, told my first poetry workshop that there was no subject unfit for poetry. Steeped in the traditions of the old masters, I guess I recoiled from that idea a bit. To me, it seemed that poetry was about great subjects, profound mysteries, the legendary and epic. Maybe I overstate it a bit, because I didn’t think all poems had to be about gods, true love or slaying dragons, but I also wasn’t so sure about the idea that poetry could be about the mundane. If it was about something that appeared mundane, that was fine, so long as the poem revealed the hidden profundity lu...

Sometimes, the Consensus Choice is the Right One
2007-11-17 12:06:00 Jason Tuohey of The Boston Globe insists that the acronym "MVP" (as in MVP Award) actually stands for "Most Valuable Papi." Of course, the rest of us know that it most certainly does not. And only if it did would David Ortiz be the man most qualified to win it.Although the Red Sox World Series victory promises a painful offseason in New York, some Yankees fans will take solace when Alex Rodriguez brings another Most Valuable Player award to the Bronx.I'm certainly not aware of any. How many Yankee fans even like A-Rod? The few who do probably won't be forgetting Papelbon's "Victory Squat" any time soon just because A-Rod took home some regular season hardware.Major League Baseball doesn't announce the MVP awards until Monday, but it's considered a mere formality in the American League this year. Even the casual fan knows A-Rod already has the trophy wrapped up in a tidy, pinstriped bow.Meanwhile, the consensus on David Ortiz is that he had an off year. Despite being a Boston fo...

Conservatives Coming to a Climate Consensus?
2007-10-18 20:42:00 No. But they are realizing that achieving energy independence and fighting climate change both have common solutions. Over at Townhall conservative columnist Cal Thompson comes around to a point I made over a year ago about the debate on climate change (although he first does some Gore bashing and accuses those that believe in global warming of being a cult first)"Republicans and Democrats repeatedly tell us we rely too much on foreign oil, especially that which comes from a current trouble spot, the Middle East, and that which comes from a potential trouble spot, Venezuela. Might it be possible for the CGW crowd and the Church of Free Enterprise (CFE) to come together for the common purpose of reducing our reliance on foreign oil? CGW fundamentalists would get what they want ? a reduced carbon footprint and supposedly lower global temperatures (go ahead and let them believe it) ? while CFE parishioners would rejoice that Saudi Arabia?s hold on us (not to mention its use of our mone...

A consensus government -- and no opposition?
2007-10-17 20:00:00 Syed Badrul AhsanIN a season brimming over with some novel ideas about governance and statecraft, Professor AQM Badruddoza Chowdhury's suggestion that, once the elections of 2008 are gone through, a government of national consensus might be put in place (for a decade!) only adds to the excitement. You only have to recapitulate everything that has happened in these past few months to get a sense of where the country is going, or trying to go.When the Iajuddin caretaker administration was peremptorily shown the door, to our intense relief, through an imposition of a state of emergency, it was the natural popular expectation that free, fair and transparent elections would be organised, and the country would soon go back into the hands of decent, caring politicians after the kleptocracy that passed for government between October 2001 and October 2006. Well, that did not happen, as we know only too well by now.What did happen, though, was a drive against corruption, an undertaking that ...
We can't ignore scientific consensus
2007-10-08 03:48:00 I published to following in the Salinas Californian newspaper on October 4, 2007:Has scientific consensus become meaningless? Unfortunately, there are more and more signs that we are heading in this direction. Too often do we consider and enact policies in disagreement with scientific consensus. Too often do right-wing think tanks create a faux debate. Three of the most controversial issues in this country serve as examples: global warming, income inequality and immigration. Scientific consensus has been found on all three.Regarding global warming, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change reported there is a 90 percent chance that human activity is significantly altering the world's climate. Another 2004 study found that 75 percent of 530 relevant scientific papers from 27 countries supported the idea of anthropogenic climate change.On income inequality, a study by the Southern Economic Journal found that 71 percent of economists believe income inequality is too great, and 81 ...

UN climate change talks reach consensus on greenhouse gas reduction
2007-09-20 14:20:00 Industrial nations reached consensus on Friday to cut greenhouse gas emissions to 25 to 40 percent below 1990 levels by 2020.The consensus was reached at the fourth round of climate change talks under the auspices of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), held Aug. 27-31 in Vienna.Yvo de Boer, head of the UN Climate Change Secretariat, welcomed the outcome, saying the setting of the goal for reducing greenhouse gas emissions created a fundamental framework for the further discussion of relevant topics at the United Nations Climate Change Conference (UNCCC), due to be held in Bali, Indonesia, in December.He added that the consensus showed the common will of all parties involved to further impel the work for cutting greenhouse gas emissions, but "more needs to be done by the global community."Delegates taking part in the talks said that although the consensus is a non-binding pact, and can only serve as reference for the upcoming UNCCC, it is an important ...

The "Consensus" That Isn't There
2007-09-18 19:39:00 I hadn?t really given much of a though to Michael Mukasey, the retired federal judge from New York nominated by Dubya as the next Attorney General to replace Abu Gonzales. Maybe, for some reason, the fact that Sen. Charles Schumer of New York approved of him made me blow off any examination of Mukasey until today.(Of course, Schumer has also rejected the idea of making fund managers pay a tax rate of 35 percent, the ordinary tax rate, on ?carried interest,? as opposed to the nominal 15 percent rate they presently pay when declaring the income as capital gains, even though many Democrats approve it; this is tantamount to an undeserved windfall for these people, though Schumer ? erroneously, I think ? believes raising the tax would lead to an exodus of high-paying jobs from Wall Street and perhaps the country?I?m willing to take that chance if it means more funding for health care and our schools).Fortunately, though, the New York Times took a closer look at Mukasey today in this edit...
