Interessant, men på en måte også logisk. Rart at ingen har sett denne sammenhengen tidligere, gitt hvor mye det forskes på området. www.nrk.no/klima/ny-stu...
Ny studie: Reinare luft i Kina har gitt meir global oppvarming
Dei siste 15 åra har verda blitt enda varmare enn klimaforskarane meinte at ho burde ut frå modellane.

This is well said:

Masculinity is stepping up to protect the weak. It is sacrificing yourself to help others. True masculinity is protection. Protecting those who are less fortunate. It is a country or a person who shows tenderness and uses strength to care for those who cannot do it themselves.

My gut feeling is that the explosions in the three buses near Tel Aviv were a false flag operation. A pretext to defend what is now happening in the West Bank. But, that's just a gut feeling, nothing more.

Én million nordmenn sier de kommer til å kjøpe kryptovaluta i løpet av de neste ti årene. Skremmende utvikling, mener økonomieksperter.

Det burde ikke være lov å drive nettbutikk i Norge hvis man ikke har en enkel og gratis returordning.

Imagine if someone had made this prediction in 2014:

In 2024, Russia and North Korea, backed by China and Iran, will be waging war on a European democracy, and NATO won’t stop them.

A friend points out that dictatorships, nowadays, also fail because they run out of money. They can't steal enough from the state to pay loyalists, wind up relying on narcotics trade or international crime (true of both Syria and Venezuela, for example) and then their soldiers stop fighting

Georgia continues to stand up for democracy. Real resistance doesn’t protest for only a day, it takes place for as long as it’s needed. #georgiaprotests

The events in Syria have made the world realise once again, or at least they should, that even the most cruel regime may fall and that Russia and its allies can be defeated.

Please share - the regime forces unlawfully detained people to say the opposition leaders are behind the protests, in an effort to jail everyone just like they promised before the elections. One detainee managed to get the message out and is on a hunger strike now. #TerrorInGeorgia #GeorgiaProtests

FANTASTIC NEWS! Romania’s Constitutional Court has just annulled the first round of the presidential election due to heavy Russian interference. The second round will not take place on Sunday and the first round will be re-run. The electoral authorities will have to validate all candidates again.

Elders are also protesting, despite the violence of the Moscow backed government and the risk of mass arrests. The younger protestors are shielding them from the water cannons and rubber bullets. All of Georgia remains defiant. #GeorgiaProtests
