PSU Prof Is Suing Mark Steyn And National Review

Michael “Hockey Stick” Mann has filed a lawsuit against writer Mark Steyn and National Review alleging they defamed him in a column Steyn wrote in July called “Football and Hockey” which was about all the neat ways Penn State has gotten itself worldwide notice over the last few years.

Mann is a professor at PSU and was one of the major players in the global warming scandal of November 2009 in which emails were leaked from  University of East Anglia’s Hadley Climatic  Research Centre in the United Kingdom that showed leading climate researchers playing tricks with data and conspiring to stifle dissenters regarding the global warming catastrophe story.
Mann is the creator of infamous “hockey stick” graph which was widely claimed to have proved that earth temperatures were drastically increasing.  It was learned he left out data points in creating it. A graph that takes into account the missing data is a lot less scary.

Steyn quoted someone else saying that “Mann could be said to be the Jerry Sandusky of climate science except that instead of molesting children, he has molested and tortured data in in the service of politicized science that could have dire economic consequences for the nation and planet.”
Steyn wondered “If an institution is prepared to cover up systemic statutory rape of minors, what won’t it cover up? Whether or not he’s ‘the Jerry Sandusky of climate change’, he remains the Michael Mann of climate change, in part because his ‘investigation’ by a deeply corrupt administration was a joke.
We actually said something similar way back.
Anyway, Steyn and National Review are fighting the suit. Their lawyer John B. Williams of Cozen O’Connor of Washington D.C. notes that his clients will be seeking access to materials Mann successfully fought to protect in other proceedings.
It should be interesting.
The defense is not  free and NR is asking for help with it. Information on how to donate can be found here. We are going to send them $10.
And Penn State? Sell the land for office space. It can’t be taken seriously as an institution of higher learning.

Afternoon Burglars Prowl Delco In Maroon Mazda

Over the past month, there have been at least eight daytime burglaries in Delaware County, Pa –including Upper Providence and Nether Providence townships —  involving a suspect vehicle described as a small older compact maroon sedan possibly a Mazda with unknown New Jersey tags, reports Newtown Police Chief Chris Lunn,
 
The suspects are believed to be a white male with a white, dark-haired female driver or two white males.  
“They are usually hitting between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m.,” says Lunn.
 
The majority of the entries are forced with some being unlocked doors.  In one of the burglaries, a victim encountered the male in his house and chased him down the street where he was observed entering the maroon vehicle and leaving the area.  The suspect was described as being approx. 5′ 11″, 170 pounds and about 25 years old. He was wearing sunglasses, a baseball hat and possibly gloves.
 
If you see the car described above in your neighborhood, call 911 immediately and provide as much information as possible.
