<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>As I studied the documents that was hacked from the University of East Anglia I came across a very interesting document. I know that everyone is going on about the emails but they seem to forget that there was also a folder full of documents.<br />
The following are excerpts from the “IPCC Special Report on Emissions Scenarios”. At the very least, it is disturbing to see what the world has planned for us if we let them sign these treaties.</p>
<p><em>“Developing scenarios for a period of one hundred years is a relatively new<br />
field.  Within that period we might expect two major technological<br />
discontinuities, a major shift in societal values and a change in the<br />
balance of geopolitical power. </em></p>
<p><em> This scenario family entitled &#8220;Golden Economic Age&#8221;, describes rapid and<br />
successful economic development.  The primary drivers for economic growth<br />
and development &#8220;catch up&#8221; are the strong human desire for prosperity, high<br />
human capital (education), innovation, technology diffusion, and free trade.<br />
The logic of successful development assumes smooth growth with no major<br />
political discontinuities or catastrophic events.  The scenario family&#8217;s<br />
development model is based on the most successful historical examples of<br />
economic growth, i.e., on the development path of the now affluent OECD<br />
economies.  Historical analogies of successful economic &#8220;catching up&#8221; can<br />
be found in the Scandinavian countries, Austria, Japan, and South Korea.<br />
&#8220;Intangible&#8221; assets (human capital, stable political climate) take<br />
precedence over &#8220;tangible&#8221; assets (capital, resource, and technology<br />
availability) in providing the conditions for a take-off into accelerated<br />
rates of development.  Once these conditions are met, free trade enables<br />
each region to access knowledge, technology, and capital to best deploy its<br />
respective comparative economic and human resource advantages.<br />
Institutional frameworks are able to successfully sustain economic growth<br />
and also to handle the inevitable volatility that rapid economic growth<br />
entails.”</em></p>
<p>Sounds like Utopia, huh! Personally, I think they’ve been watching too much Star Trek! I love the fact that they consider us “human capital” and “intangible assets”. But just wait. It gets better.</p>
<p><em>“ Growth could be stimulated by the<br />
expansion of regional economic partnerships and free trade arrangements<br />
(e.g., extensions of NAFTA and the European Union).”</em></p>
<p>Well that sounds dandy! I guess we need to tear down that fence. But there’s more.</p>
<p><em>“Everyone reaps the benefits of rapid growth, rising incomes,<br />
improved access to services, and rising standards of living.  The economic<br />
imperatives of markets, free trade, and technology diffusion (i.e.,<br />
competition) that underlie the high growth rates provide for efficient<br />
allocation of resources.  Efficiency and high productivity are the positive<br />
by-products of the highly competitive nature of the economy.  They also<br />
provide the economic resources for distributive and social measures<br />
required for a stable social and political climate, vital for sustaining<br />
high growth rates in human capital, productivity, innovation, and hence<br />
economic growth.”</em></p>
<p>So far it looks good doesn’t it?</p>
<p><em>“Demographic variables co-evolve with<br />
prosperity: mortality declines (i.e. life expectancy increases) as a<br />
function of higher incomes (better diets and affordable medical treatment).<br />
In turn, changes in the social values underlying the fertility transition<br />
also pave the way for greater access to education, modernisation of<br />
economic structures, and market orientation.  These are key for innovating<br />
and diffusing the best practice technologies underlying the high<br />
productivity, and hence economic growth, of the scenario.”</em></p>
<p>Wow! Is this Heaven on Earth?</p>
<p><em>“The link between demographic and economic variables in the scenario<br />
corresponds to present empirical observations: the affluent live long and<br />
have few children.  High per capita incomes are thus associated with both<br />
low mortality and low fertility. Together, this results in rather low<br />
population growth, characterized in addition by a considerable &#8220;greying&#8221; of<br />
the population.<br />
.  Fertility rates range between 1.3 to 1.7 children per<br />
woman.  Life expectancy can approach some 95 years, with a regional<br />
variation between 80 and 95 years.  Global population grows to some 9<br />
billion by 2050, and declines to 7 billion by 2100, the result of continued<br />
below replacement fertility in all regions.”</em></p>
<p>Hmmm&#8230;starting to sound a bit like China, don’t you think? I kind of like children myself but they don’t seem to be encouraged in Utopia. This might be a problem. But at least we can grow really old by ourselves.</p>
<p><em>“Economic growth rates slow over time in proportion to the reduction of the potentially<br />
economic active population (age 15 to 65), which decline in some regions to<br />
50 percent compared to the historical average of approximately 70 percent.”</em></p>
<p>Doesn’t that sound worse to you? There’s more.</p>
<p><em>“Once the economic and industrial base is firmly established<br />
and the economy matures, growth rates decline with increasing income<br />
levels.  This reflects saturation effects and a higher emphasis on quality<br />
rather than quantity at high income levels.<br />
The global economy in the &#8220;Golden Economic Age&#8221; expands at an average<br />
annual rate of three percent per year to 2100.  This is about the same rate<br />
as the global average since 1850 and in this respect may simply be<br />
considered &#8220;dynamics as usual&#8221;.  Non-Annex-I economies expand with an<br />
average annual growth rate of four percent per year, twice the rate of<br />
Annex-I economies.  By approximately 2030 Non-Annex-I GDP surpasses that of<br />
the Annex-I economies.  Per capita income disparities are reduced, but<br />
differences between regions are not entirely eliminated.  Non-Annex-I per<br />
capita income reaches the 1990 Annex-I level (14,000 $/capita) by around<br />
2040.  By 2100 per capita income would approach 100,000 $/capita in Annex-I<br />
countries and 70,000 $/capita in Non-Annex-I countries.”</em></p>
<p>In other words, third world countries income goes up slowly and modern countries salaries are practically stagnant. I wonder if that applies to the rich elitists.</p>
<p><em>“Disparities continue to persist between regions, but more so within particular regions.<br />
Nevertheless, the high economic growth rates require a certain degree of income distribution.  Extreme income disparities are found to be negative influencing factors for economic growth.”</em></p>
<p>Does this mean we share the wealth?</p>
<p><em>“The large urban agglomerates and the high transport demands of a high<br />
material growth economy generate vast congestion constraints.  These are<br />
solved by applying market-based instruments (prices) rather than<br />
regulation.  Economic instruments include access and parking fees,<br />
auctioning off the limited number of new car and truck licenses in<br />
megacities, much along the lines of the current stringent Singapore model.<br />
Therefore, even at very high income levels, car ownership rates could be<br />
comparatively low in parts of the world.  In extremely densely populated<br />
areas, cars remain a luxury rather than a means of mass transport (viz.<br />
Hong Kong).” </em></p>
<p>Why didn’t I think of that! Auctioning car licenses. I could make a fortune in their Utopia World!</p>
<p><em>“Ecological resilience is assumed to be high.  In and of themselves,<br />
ecological concerns receive a low priority.  Instead, the valuation of<br />
environmental amenities is strictly in economic terms, e.g., a function of<br />
affluence.  Non-congestion, clean water and air, and recreational<br />
possibilities in nature all assume increasing importance with rising<br />
affluence, although preferences for environmental amenities may differ<br />
across regions and income levels.” </em></p>
<p>Are they saying that poor people don’t like to swim, fish, hike or breath? Or maybe the poor will be too busy working for the rich to have time to enjoy life. I don’t see any improvement here.</p>
<p><em>“New technologies may enable humanity to tap either the vast quantities of fossil resources existing in the form of coal, unconventional oil, and gas with technologies that are both highly<br />
economic, efficient, and clean in terms of traditional pollutants, such as particulates or sulphur. Alternatively, technological change could unfold favouring non-fossil technologies and resources, such as nuclear and renewables.”</em></p>
<p>Correct me if I’m wrong but, isn’t that what caused the problem of greenhouse gases?</p>
<p><em>“Only incremental improvements are achieved in farming<br />
practices and land productivity.  This is combined with a gradual global<br />
diffusion of meat-based diets.  Both of these trends are land- (and<br />
deforestation-) intensive.  Alternatively, global agriculture could move in<br />
the direction of genetically engineered, high productivity crops and<br />
&#8220;sea-farming,&#8221; combined with a quality- and health-oriented diet based on<br />
fish and vegetables, both of which are relatively less land intensive.  As<br />
a result, GHG emissions range widely even for otherwise similar scenario<br />
characteristics.”</em></p>
<p>Oh yummy! Seaweed, rice and fish. So they get to decide what we get to eat? Who made them God? I feel some freedom slipping away here.</p>
<p><em>“The key question is which primary resources may<br />
become economically accessible in the future, and which technologies will<br />
become available to convert these primary resources into the final goods<br />
and services demanded by consumers.  In the energy area,<br />
resources/technologies are key variables in determining the timing and<br />
nature of the transition away from currently dominant conventional oil and<br />
gas.<br />
Four pathways are possible:<br />
1. Progress across all resources and technologies.<br />
2. &#8220;Clean coal&#8221; technologies: environmentally friendly except for GHG<br />
emissions and possible resource extraction impacts.<br />
3. &#8220;Oil/Gas&#8221;: smooth transition from conventional to unconventional oil and<br />
gas, tapping the vast occurrences of unconventional fossil fuels, including<br />
methane clathrates.<br />
4. &#8220;Bio-Nuclear&#8221;: rapid technological progress in non-fossil supply and<br />
end-use technologies, e.g. renewables, such as solar and biomass<br />
combustion, nuclear and hydrogen-fueled end-use devices, such as fuel cells.<br />
In the dynamic technology cases, liquid<br />
fuels from coal or unconventional oil/gas resources would become available<br />
at less than $30  /barrel, with costs falling further by about one percent<br />
per year with exploitation of learning curve effects.  Non-fossil<br />
electricity (photovoltaics, new nuclear) would become available at costs of<br />
less than 10 mills/kWh ($.01/kWh) and continue to improve further as a<br />
result of learning curve effects.  The basic premise of the &#8220;dynamic<br />
technology&#8221; scenarios is that energy services could be delivered at<br />
long-run costs not higher than today, but with technologies having<br />
radically different characteristics, including environmental.”</em></p>
<p>I thought the whole point was that we shouldn’t be using these fuels. Now suddenly it is feasible and cheaper? They need to get their story straight. And this is all based on technology that hasn’t even been thought up yet?! Boy are WE smart!</p>
<p><em>“In the agricultural sector, two contrasting scenarios of land productivity<br />
could unfold, depending on the nature of advances in agricultural<br />
technologies.  However, CO2 emissions from land use changes could range<br />
from 0.5 (low) to 1.5 (high) GtC by 2030 and  from -1 to -2 (low) to zero<br />
(high) GtC emissions by 2100.  In the latter case tropical forests<br />
essentially become depleted as a result of land-use conversions for<br />
agriculture and biomass fuel plantations.  In the former case, land<br />
productivity gains are so substantial that ploughing of marginal<br />
agricultural land is no longer economically feasible and is abandoned,<br />
following recent trends in the OECD.  The resulting expansion of forest<br />
cover leads to a net sequestration of atmospheric CO2.”</em></p>
<p>Isn’t CO2 a “good” thing? I thought the trees needed it. I must inform my science teacher that he’s been wrong all these years! We’ll have to find another way to create oxygen. This statement was made in another document by a German scientist who did not want to be recognized:</p>
<p><strong><em>“Our global Carbon Cycle Model reveals a half-life time of only 38 years for any CO2 excess. With present constant global CO2 emission until 2100, the temperature would only further increase by 0.15 °C. Scenario IS92a would end up with 571 ppm only. IPCC assumed that far more fossil reserves would be burnt than being available. Using a flawed eddy diffusion ocean model, the IPCC has grossly underestimated the future oceanic CO2 uptake. Hardly coping with biomass response, limited fossil reserves and using a factor 4 temperature sensitivity, all this leads to an IPCC exaggeration factor of about 6 in yr 2100. The usable fossil reserves of 1300 GtC burnt by 2090, merely cause 548 ppm – not even a doubling. The WRE 650, 750 and 1000 ppm scenarios, projected until 2300, are infeasible. Emission reduction is absolutely useless: the realistic temperature effect of Kyoto till 2050 will be only 0.02 °C.”</em></strong></p>
<p>So where is the emergency? Something smells fishy here. This guy is no “weatherman” he’s a scientist!<br />
*****************************************************<br />
<em>“The central elements of this scenario family include high levels of<br />
environmental and social consciousness, successful governance including<br />
major social innovation, and reductions in income and social inequality.<br />
Successful forms of governance allow many problems which are currently hard<br />
or difficult to resolve to fall within the competency of government and<br />
other organizations.  Solutions reflect a wide stakeholder dialogue leading<br />
to consent on international environmental and social agreements.  This is<br />
coupled with bottom-up solutions to problems, which reflect wide success in<br />
getting broad-based support within communities.”</em></p>
<p>Major social innovation, reductions in income &#38; inequality, bottom-up solutions? I’ve tried to envision this but what I come up with isn’t Utopia. I see socialism and Hitler’s brown-shirts!</p>
<p><em>“This yields a world of high levels of economic activity, with significant<br />
and deliberate progress being made with respect to international and<br />
national inequality of income.  The current order of magnitude differences<br />
in income between developing and developed countries are reduced to a<br />
factor of two, with moderate growth continuing to occur in OECD countries.<br />
Gross World Product (GWP) reaches $350 trillion by 2100 and average global<br />
incomes $40,000 per capita.  Economic development is balanced and, given<br />
the high environmental consciousness and institutional effectiveness, this<br />
leads to a better quality environment, with many of the aspects of rapid<br />
growth being anticipated and dealt with effectively.  Active management of<br />
income distribution is undertaken through use of taxes and subsidies.  The<br />
composition of final demand will evolve to a mix reflecting lower use of<br />
materials and energy, thus easing the impact of high income levels.”</em></p>
<p>So&#8230;if I read that right, peoples incomes will be reduced to $40,000 each even if you used to make $100,000. I guess they will tax us down to their level. Does this mean that the elitists won’t really have all the money they would take from us? Then why are they called “Elitists”? This doesn’t make sense to me. Who has the high income if everyone makes the same amount?</p>
<p><em>“New social inventions, such as the Grameen Bank&#8217;s micro-credit schemes, are<br />
a significant contributor to an increase in institutional effectiveness and equity improvement. The social innovations and effective governance rest on high levels of communication, both in a passive (i.e. TV) and active sense.  Governance systems reflect high levels of consent from those affected by decisions, and this consent arises out of active participation in the governance process.”</em></p>
<p>I guess they are counting on us to get loans so that we live outside our means and have to pay out interest to someone. Sounds like a “company store” and to keep everybody happy they will spread their propaganda through the TV to make sure you are thinking the “right” way. So as long as we agree with them we have a say in government. Sounds a little one-sided to me. The only way that would work is if we are either zombies or clones! Maybe this is where the marijuana comes in.<br />
This is their vision of Utopia World. The peons are only allowed to make a certain income, have only one child, stay in debt, everyone works, everyone thinks alike or are pressured into it, eat only what they allowed, live where they say and what else? Oh yeah&#8230;don’t breathe since you exhale CO2! This, of course, doesn’t apply to the Elitists!<br />
So how are you liking it so far? Way too much Star Trek in their lives. Heaven on Earth? I don’t think so unless you are one of the Elitists.<br />
Now we will take a look at the world they envision if the countries don’t sign their treaties. Oh yeah, they are going to do this one way or another. They want control over everybody and they don’t care how they get it.</p>
<p><em>“Fertility rates vary among regions.  North America, Northwest Europe and Asia experience falling fertility rates and populations.  The Middle East,<br />
Africa, and to some extent, Southern Europe and South America see rising<br />
population although the rate of growth decreases.  This leads to a shift in<br />
the world population balance from the Indian sub-continent and South East<br />
Asia to the Middle East and Africa by the end of the century.  World<br />
population reaches 16 billion by 2100.<br />
Regional economies emphasize self-sufficiency with wide variations in<br />
growth levels.  Average global economic growth is relatively low at around<br />
2.5%/year, leading to a GWP of $250 trillion by 2100.  Trade across regions<br />
consists primarily of raw materials and semi-finished goods in a relatively<br />
low trust world where dependence on other regions is minimized.”</em></p>
<p>It looks like they won’t make as much money this way. What a shame. Whatever will they do?</p>
<p><em>“The growing strength of the economic regions, and their competing economic interests, lead to reduced international co-operation.  Global environmental, economic and social<br />
issues are subject to relatively weak governance.  Conflicts between ethnic<br />
and religious groups within economic regions become less violent as a<br />
result of economic pressures on the parties.  Where ethnic and religious<br />
violence persists, the groups are excluded from the economic region.  Thus<br />
wars occur in the boundary zones between economic regions.  Wars may also<br />
occur near regional boundaries for control of scarce natural resources.”</em></p>
<p>It kind of sounds like the way it is now, huh?</p>
<p><em>“Both local governance and environmental concerns limit population growth.<br />
The world largely supports efforts to reduce unwanted births both as a<br />
social service but also because there is an implicit belief that even<br />
increasing populations have severe environmental consequences.  Education<br />
and welfare programs for the young and illiterate are widely pursued.<br />
Population stabilizes at 10.5 billion people by 2100.” </em></p>
<p>Sounds like “pro-choice” or is it government panels telling you that you don’t need that baby cause it will breathe and eat too much?</p>
<p><em>“GWP grows to around 240 trillion $ in 2100 with a North/South income ratio<br />
of approximately 7/1 (presently 13/1).  Concerns about the ecological costs<br />
of consumerism lifestyles receive wide attention and attempts are made,<br />
first in industrial countries, but later in developing countries, to seek<br />
satisfaction through community activities rather than high consumption.<br />
Overall people are eager to find alternatives to the high income world of<br />
materialism.”</em></p>
<p>Can anybody tell me what THIS has to do with Climate Change? All I see are references to money and materialism! It sounds like envy to me.</p>
<p><em>“While strong redistribution policies are enacted within regions to reduce<br />
income disparity, income differences between regions persist globally<br />
throughout the century and even increases in absolute terms, although the<br />
relative inequity decreases.  The mechanism by which global equity<br />
increases relates in part to population dynamics: as fertility rates<br />
decline in developing countries, the decrease in youth dependency ratios<br />
leads to an increase in savings rate and strengthened economic growth<br />
during the first half of the century.  In the developed regions, by<br />
contrast, aging becomes an increasing drag on economic growth in helping<br />
to converge global incomes, concerns about the persistence of income<br />
inequality world-wide are swamped by the local concerns and conscious<br />
policies to limit international trade.” </em></p>
<p>There’s that darned money thing again but at least they dressed it up with population control. Whatever will they do with those unproductive old people?</p>
<p><em>“Immigration is controlled but accepted, partly to compensate for very low<br />
fertility rates in some regions and partly to help economic development<br />
worldwide without the problems of uncontrolled globalization.”</em></p>
<p>Why they import the new and improved illegals! Why didn’t I think of that? If I didn’t know better I would think they were talking about livestock.</p>
<p><em>“Hydroelectric power is a constrained bag.  Dams are viewed with disdain<br />
because there are soon no more wild rivers anywhere and the rights of<br />
indigenous people have been egregiously violated.  Although they are<br />
relatively clean from the perspective of carbon emissions, their effects on<br />
indigenous people (mercury poisoning of fish, etc.) becomes unacceptable.<br />
Decommissioning dams is widespread to restore pristine ecological systems<br />
downstream.”</em></p>
<p>You have got to be kidding me! They are worried about mercury poisoning but they have no problem injecting it into your body and calling it a vaccine! Give me a break.<br />
So what have we learned from the scenarios that are shown here? I see a lot of talk about money, controlling thoughts and actions, abortion, deciding what you eat, clones? and using the coal &#38; gas that is supposed to be causing the problem in the first place. And, in case you forgot, this is the global plan for Climate Change!<br />
They tell you what to eat, where to live, where to work, who works, when you are too old to work, how much you can make, how many kids you have and how you are supposed to think while they tax the crap out of you until they can’t use you anymore. Then what? Gas chambers or will it be “Soylent Green”. Maybe you will at least get to think for yourself on how you die so that you are no longer a burden on their “society”!<br />
So, if you like their world, do nothing and you’ll get your wish. I choose to raise a big stink on this plan cause I like thinking for myself. I don’t want or need a babysitter!!</p>
<p>Remember that this is supposed to be based on science. The science I grew up with was a lot different than what these people did. True scientists gather the evidence and see where it takes you. These people set an agenda and then manipulated the science to make it look feasible with false data!</p>

<p>Hahaha.. I know it is really not funny, but sometimes you just have to laugh&#8230;  The above screenshot is from <a href="http://www.examinarse.com">www.examinarse.com</a>  Seems like the owner packed his / her bag and left in a hurry..</p>
<p>While I&#8217;m here, I might as well post a few recent comments from HAPPY IX CUSTOMERS.</p>
<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;</p>
<blockquote><p>I hope Google ranks this website in their top search results for anyone wanting to know more about IXWebhosting. I had been with that webhost for more than 4 years and changed all my sites to a different host just last week. IXWebhosting is the most poorly managed, technically incompetent and frustrating company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with.</p>
<p>Why have I been with them for 4 years?<br />
Their webhosting plans were at the time and still are pretty cheap when compared to other competitors. But its true, if you throw peanuts, you&#8217;ll get monkeys. You are ok till the time you have a website with only static (html pages). That&#8217;s what I had for 2 years. The moment you have a dynamic site, have anything to do with databases, use pages in asp or php&#8230; God save you. I&#8217;ve had nothing but trouble for the remaining 2 years pulling my hair out with every trouble ticket raised.</p>
<p>Customer Service<br />
Its the most slowest, incompetent buffoons I&#8217;ve ever interacted with. Every ticket raised takes a minimum of 14 hours to be verified. Their typical replies are &#8220;everything&#8217;s ok at their end&#8221;. They do not understand your query, nor can they understand any technical issues.</p>
<p>Spam-<br />
I lived with spam in each of our mailboxes for all the time I&#8217;ve ben with IXWebhosting. Spam is like its brother. Besides having issues with our mail disappearing from our mailboxes (their backup could only restore some of it as it was infrequently taken), I had to put up with tons of spam. At the time of writing this, I believe they have made the web access to the email accounts over https, but still, my experience with them was ghastly.</p>
<p>Server Security-<br />
My websites were hacked many a times. Their servers are easily vulnerable to anybody. I will rate my expertise with networks and security at advanced. To test the security I have hacked into my own hosting webserver and seen the list of domains, their entire contents by simply installing a ridiculous script. I raised this issue in a trouble ticket and the response was.. you guessed it..&#8221;everything&#8217;s ok at their end&#8221;</p>
<p>Their famed easy to use preloaded scripts (Easy Apps collection)-<br />
It is user friendly to install, I&#8217;ll agree. But every one of them is completely outdated, buggy to customize and of course vulnerable to hacks. Their excuse- Its the entire collection of scripts that they install when they update the server software (maybe years before). The scripts in them cannot be changed or upgraded.</p>
<p>Final Comments-<br />
If you have a simple website with a couple of html pages and you don&#8217;t mind spam, if your wesite is hacked or defaced, its good value for cheap hosting.<br />
Otherwise, Avoid Them Like The Plague&#8230; as someone else wrote in here.</p>
<p>I am not affiliated with anyone or anything from anywhere and all the experiences above are my own.<br />

<p>=====================================================================</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>We have been using IX for a long time. First thing that happended was that they allowed my EX-Wife access to my account after we were divorced because she has paid by her credit card at one point for one domain name. They changed the admin panel and allowed her full access to everything because she did not pay for her domain and called them! MORORNS! We have a pro business account and they allowed her access to customers account info, OMG what a night mare! Finally after getting the police involved they fixed it. Now 3 out of 7 of our accounts have been hacked&#8230; We have not done or changed anything, in fact the accounts that have been hacked are just place holders for domanins&#8230; I have asked it to be fixed from backup 4 times so far and as of yet nothing&#8230; I am just in the process of moveing everything to a new local box and say GOOD BYE loosers!<br />
<strong>Michael</strong></p>
<p>===================================================================</p>
<p>Server vulnerable to hacking, infected our site, IX Web Hosting refused to acknowledge or address, arbitrarily shut us down. Luckily, we had just completed set up with an alternative server and this didn&#8217;t cost us the significant downtime, money and trouble it could have. AVOID them like the plague!<br />
<strong>Dayl</strong></p>
<p><strong>====================================================================</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>In the beginning (up to a year ago) everything was fine. Now I have had so many problems that today I have changed my hosting company and left ix-webhosting and went to BlueHost.</p>
<p>My problems:<br />
1. extremely slow server response (average response to a simple html page over 5 seconds). Regularly browser says: no server response. My customers are complaining. Maintaining my blog is almost impossible<br />
2. ftp regularly does not work (complaint by server: too many clients, but I have just one ftp connection open)<br />
3. average response time of trouble ticket about 24 hrs<br />
4. tremendous problems in upgrading from php4 to php5 (I had to change ix-webhosting servers), without any help from them. They offered me help but that would cost me over 200$<br />
5. their mysql server is slow</p>
<p>When I complain to them they tell me these problems are temporary and that they are about to improve it all.<br />
<strong>Ad</strong></p>
<p>=================================================================</p>
<p>Once again I have had a horrible experience with IX WebHosting. Here is a list of issues that I exprienced over the last year of being with them:</p>
<p>1. The password to the control panel keeps getting reset and I know for a fact that only a select few have access. Any changes made by those few are logged and disseminated to the rest. When I ask I am made to look like “what’s the big deal?”</p>
<p>2. They NEVER return calls and almost never update tickets except to close it and say that it was your fault. They refer you to the “system admin” who is a ghost as far as I am concerned then are quick to tell you that they can’t do anything else to help you.</p>
<p>3. Press as you might the cannot suggest when the problem can be fixed. It is like they think that your business and clients that are affected by problems don’t matter.</p>
<p>4. Their first level support are unskillful googlers who waste no time in presenting irrelevant rubbish explanations that clearly shows that they have missed the basics of training.</p>
<p>Most Recent Exerience:</p>
<p>Unfortunately they host my mail (haven’t gotten around to hosting my own as yet). One of my customers suddenly cannot send me any mail from their domain, at least I no longer receive it on my domain hosted with IX Webhosting.</p>
<p>My customer had a recent SPAM issue that was resolved however they were not blacklisted. All this time I was receiving mail fine. However a while after the issues is resolved I cannot receive any mail from them.</p>
<p>I try chat support who quickly tells me that I need to call in to report the problem.</p>
<p>ok I call and some guy is trying desparately to convince me that there is a problem with the MX records of my client. And even though I tell him that mxtoolbox gives me a clean report and also that my hosted mail is the only domain that is not receiving mail from my client along with other information he refuses listen. Eventually he gets tired and tells me that he has to get a system admin to call me back.</p>
<p>24 hrs later no call from any admin and I decide to log a ticket myself and describe the problem &#8211; no response.</p>
<p>I call back again and a young lady informs me that the issue was left untouched, whatever that means and puts me on hold after every question I answer. She then routes it to the “correct” queue and pomises me that I will receive a call.</p>
<p>24 hrs later no call and no update other than hers that says the call is on hold.</p>
<p>I update the ticket to ask what is going on?</p>
<p>12 hrs later no response so I call and was informed that since I updated the ticket to ask a question it was reverted to the end of the queue. Apparently I was punished for quering the status on my issue….</p>
<p>Another young lady can give me no indication as to an estimated resoution time or at least response time.</p>
<p>I ask for her supervisor who refused to give me his name but was quick to tell me that I would have to wait until the admins got around to looking at the problem.</p>
<p>He didn’t think it was reasonable for them to at least update the ticket and was quick to tell me that “we are just the phones” and that they couldn’t escalate beyond redirecting my problem to the admin queue. They would get to it whenever they can and I would have to wait…&#8221;there are other customers ya know?&#8221; so I have absolutely no idea how long I will be in that queue. His entire tone suggested that he had worked a tripple shift and was tired and grumpy or he simply couldn&#8217;t be bothered. Meanwhile I embarasingly have to tell my customer that I am in the process of moving my mail services which after this I definitely will.</p>
<p>It really upsets me when companies like this get away with such horrible service.</p>
<p>The least you owe your customer as a service provider is a timely and honest update(s) especially when there is a problem. Lack of communications leaves people to assume the worst and suggests that the customer is not important. It does not matter where the fault lies &#8211; you are providing a service and it should be your obligation to protect the reputaion of that service by open communications to the client at all times. As an IT consultant I can personally attribute the retension of my business not to my knowledge as much as to ensuring that my customers are always informed and have open access to me. Many times it has been my saving grace during the few hiccups I have made over the years.<br />
<strong>Anson</strong></p>
<p>=================================================================</p>
<p>Ordered web hosting form them on Thurs. pm, finally setup on Fri. However, could not upload web since FP extensions were not installed; I installed them from the panel. Long story, several calls to tech support, they can not get the FT issues resolved; moved up to admin. Called over the weekend and told it would be 24 hours&#8230;I had to wait in the queue. On Monday afternoon I was told give them another 4 -5 hours. I cancelled later that night about 10 pm&#8230;issue not resolved. Tech support was useless. They did offer 2 months extra time if I stayed. After 30 days I would have los the $$; they did refund my $$. I had used them for a couple years in the past without too many issues, site did go down several times. Not recommended.<br />

<p>And the list goes on and on and on, but that makes good posting for another time.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Iain Murray wrote an excellent piece at Pajamas Media regarding the three things you must know about]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/three-things-you-absolutely-must-know-about-climategate/" target="_blank">Iain Murray</a> wrote an excellent piece at Pajamas Media regarding the three things you must know about Climategate (the hacked CRU email and data).  Despite being excellent, I think there&#8217;s one more to add.  While the emails got a lot of attention, a file called <a href="http://www.anenglishmanscastle.com/archives/007998.html" target="_blank">HARRY_READ_ME.txt</a> is finally getting some attention.  And wow, is it interesting.  Even <a href="http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/11/24/taking_liberties/entry5761180.shtml" target="_blank">CBS</a> has taken notice: (H/T: <a href="http://hotair.com/archives/2009/11/24/cbs-east-anglia-cru-covered-up-bad-data-computer-modeling/trackback/" target="_blank">Hot Air</a>)</p>
<blockquote><p>As the leaked messages, and especially the HARRY_READ_ME.txt file, found their way around technical circles, two things happened: first, programmers unaffiliated with East Anglia started taking a close look at the quality of the CRU&#8217;s code, and second, they began to feel sympathetic for anyone who had to spend three years (including working weekends) trying to make sense of code that appeared to be undocumented and buggy, while representing the core of CRU&#8217;s climate model.</p></blockquote>
<p>The link has some good excecrpts, but <a href="http://www.devilskitchen.me.uk/2009/11/data-horribilis-harryreadmetxt-file.html" target="_blank">The Devil&#8217;s Kitchen</a> has more, plus commentary.  Frankly, I encourage you to read the original file.  Whoever this Harry person is, he at least knows how to keep an entertaining log.  Some fun bits:</p>
<blockquote><p>It&#8217;s Sunday evening, I&#8217;ve worked all weekend, and just when I thought it was done I&#8217;m hitting yet another problem that&#8217;s based on the hopeless state of our databases. There is no uniform data integrity, it&#8217;s just a catalogue of issues that continues to grow as they&#8217;re found.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>Back to the gridding. I am seriously worried that our flagship gridded data product is produced by Delaunay triangulation &#8211; apparently linear as well.</p>
<p>As far as I can see, this renders the station counts totally meaningless.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>So.. we don&#8217;t have the coefficients files (just .eps plots of something). But what are all those monthly files? DON&#8217;T KNOW, UNDOCUMENTED. Wherever I look, there are data files, no info about what they are other than their names. And that&#8217;s useless.. take the above example, the filenames in the _mon and _ann directories are identical, but the contents are not. And the only difference is that one directory is apparently &#8216;monthly&#8217; and the other &#8216;annual&#8217; &#8211; yet both contain monthly files.</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>19. Here is a little puzzle. If the latest precipitation database file contained a fatal data error (see 17. above), then surely it has been altered since Tim last used it to produce the precipitation grids? But if that&#8217;s the case, why is it dated so early?</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>But, (Lord how many times have I used &#8216;however&#8217; or &#8216;but&#8217; in this file?!!)</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>First problem: there is no program to convert sun percentage to cloud percentage. I can do sun percentage to cloud oktas or sun hours to cloud percentage! So what the hell did Tim do?!! As I keep asking.</p></blockquote>
<p>So what&#8217;s the fourth take home message from Climategate?  This: CRU&#8217;s temperature profile is an incoherent mess.  Harry&#8217;s basically trying to fit the programming to published results to see how they did it, and can&#8217;t. Along the way, he discovers garbage data, horrible code, undocumented files, unexplained paranormal phenomena, and piles upon piles of errors. Hadley earlier this year stated they can&#8217;t release the original data because they lost it. If this file is true, then the current code is useless too, as it contains too much garbage, fudging, and improper procedures.   </p>
<p>Or, to put it succinctly: <i>CRU&#8217;s data is not in a usable form, and should not be used for further investigation</i>.  OK, so I can&#8217;t say that for certain yet, but that seems to be the implication of all this.  </p>
<p>So what does that mean?  Given the collusions going on in global warming research, we ought to demand full access to GISS and NCDC temperature profiles and the method, data, and code used to create them.  If they are as big of a mess as CRU, then they too should be tossed.</p>
<p>Which would mean all we&#8217;d have left is satellite data.  Which means the global warming models would be based on satellite data.  And given the <a href="http://wattsupwiththat.com/2009/01/17/divergence-between-giss-and-uah-since-1980/">differences between satellite data and surface temperatures</a>, suddenly global warming won&#8217;t look as bad as they claim.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re a long way from that point.  We have no proof that GISS and NCDC are as messed up as this appears to be.  But I think this is reason enough to start some FOI requests on historical temperature data.  And if things turn out bad, then those that said this whole climategate issue means nothing in regards to the actual science may turn out to be very, very wrong.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>In case you hadn&#8217;t noticed, the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia has had its email server hacked into. The initial prognosis is that these emails are genuine<br />
and shed light on the climate change debate and the relevant funding issues. The full 160MB of files can be downloaded as a 61MB zip file <a href="http://www.prisonplanet.com/climatic-research-unit-hacked-e-mails-data.html">here</a> or as individual files from <a href="http://www.anelegantchaos.org/cru/">here</a>. I appears that after all the sun has something to do with the temperature of the planet and climate scientists were aware of this as far back as 1996 (see below):</p>

<p>Dear N,</p>
<p>You mentioned to me some time ago that in your view, the 11-year solar cycle<br />
did not influence temperature.  There have been numerous attempts by<br />
academics to establish a correlation, but each has been shot down on some<br />
ground or other.  I remember Barrie Pittock was especially dismissive of<br />
attempts to correlate solar cycle with temperature.</p>
<p>Have you tried this approach?</p>
<p>Load &#8220;Mathematica&#8221; into your PC and run the following set of instructions -</p>
<p>data = ReadList[ "c:\sydney.txt", Number]<br />
dataElements = Length[data]<br />
X = ListPlot[ data, PlotJoined-&#62; True];<br />
fourierTrans = Fourier[data];<br />
ListPlot[Abs[fourierTrans], PlotJoined -&#62; True];</p>
<p>fitfun1 = Fit[data,{1,x,x^2,x^3,Sin[11 2 Pi x/dataElements],<br />
		Cos[11 2 Pi x/dataElements]},x];<br />
fittable = Table[N[fitfun1], {x, dataElements}];<br />
Y = ListPlot[fittable, PlotJoined -&#62; True];<br />
Show[X, Y] </p>
<p>The reference to &#8220;c:\sydney.txt&#8221; is a suggested pathname for the following<br />
set of data &#8211; which is Sydney&#8217;s annual mean temperature.</p>
<p>16.8  16.5  16.8  17  17  16.7  17.1  17.4  17.9  17.4  17.2  17.1  16.9  17  17.2  17.2  17.4<br />

17.3  18  17  18.2  17.4  17.6  17.5  17.4  17.1  17.4  17.3  17.5  17.7  18  17.8  18  17.4<br />
17.8  16.8  17.5  17.4  17.6  17.6  17.2  17.4  17.9  17.9  17.6  17.7  17.8  17.7  17.6  17.8<br />

18.6  </p>
<p>So Far so good.</p>
<p>&#8220;Mathematica&#8221; first plots out the data itself (see Atachment 1)</p>
<p>The first part of the instruction set lets &#8220;mathematica&#8221; do a Fourier Transform<br />
on the data, ie. searching out the periodicities, if there are any.   The result is<br />
shown on Attachment 2.</p>
<p>The transform result shows a sharp spike at the 11 year point (I wonder<br />
what is significant about 11 years?).  The second part of the instructions<br />
now acts upon this observed spike (the Cos 11 bit), to extract it&#8217;s<br />
waveform from the rest of the noise.  The result is shown as a waveform<br />
in attachment 3, the waves having an 11-year period, with the long-term<br />
Sydney warming easily evident.</p>
<p>Attachment 4 shows the original Sydney data overlaid against the 11-year<br />
periodicity.</p>
<p>(I tried the same run on the CRU global temperature set.  Even though CRU<br />
must be highly smoothed by the time all the averages are worked out, the<br />
11-year pulse is still there, albeit about half the size of Sydneys).</p>
<p>Stay cool.</p>
<p>John D     </em></p>
<p>A rudimentary Internet search with terms &#8216;UEA hacked emails&#8217; pulls up dozens of pages.<br />
Climate skeptics such as former British Chancellor of the Exchequer (Finance Minister) <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/earth/environment/globalwarming/6634282/Lord-Lawson-calls-for-public-inquiry-into-UEA-global-warming-data-manipulation.html">Lord Lawson </a>are now pushing for an enquiry into the matter. This story has got legs and will run and run.</p>
<p>And what you may cry has this got to do with the EU? Quite a lot actually. The EU is but a stepping stone on the wy towards global government, and it&#8217;s only a matter of time<br />
before the high priests of global warming stick us all with a global carbon tax. </p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>My apologiez for getting stuck on this issue lately &#8211; but I will have to keep being stuck with it for a while. This issue is to big to ignore &#8211; and as things look we are approaching critical mass on the media awareness of what has been going on inside the Hadley Climate Research Unit. The emails recently released may not be the ultimate proof that the entire thing is a fraud &#8211; but its evidence damning enough to call for a complete audit of all the published literature in the subject. Thus, if I get even one person to question what is actually going on, it&#8217;s important enough. For those following this story, I recommend</p>
<p>1. <a href="http://savecapitalism.wordpress.com/climate-data-fraud/">My own reference of these emails</a> I&#8217;m going through them backwards, so I won&#8217;t be completely finished anytime soon, but I&#8217;ll keep at it.<br />
2. <a href="http://www.climateaudit.org/">ClimateAudit</a>, the blog by Stephen McIntyre that is responsible for bringing much of this into the light.<br />
3. <a href="http://wattsupwiththat.com/">Wattsupwiththat</a>, Anthony Watts blog (responsible for doing a complete, independant temperature stations survey in the US)<br />
4. <a href="http://noconsensus.wordpress.com/">The Air Vent</a>, where the emails were originally dumped by an unknown source<br />
5. <a href="http://bishophill.squarespace.com/">Bishop Hill</a>, which also has a list of 33 of the most interesting emails found sofar<br />
6. <a href="http://www.anelegantchaos.org/cru/">Unknown server with the emails</a> which was set up a couple of days ago</p>
<p>Sofar, a few papers have picked up on this story. Not many of the mainstream outlets, however &#8211; which means that until this thing gains enough steam &#8211; no rest for the wicked. I&#8217;m back to going through endless amounts of uninteresting mail traffic in search of those incriminating parts that need to be highlighted.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Recently the University of East Anglia CRU was apparently hacked into and a large zip file was relea]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Recently the University of East Anglia CRU was apparently hacked into and a large zip file was released for download on the web. I downloaded the file and spent all night searching through it. I must say, it is very impressive. I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s real but I can tell you it&#8217;s extensive and I would have to be a scientist to understand a lot of it. There were many files that I couldn&#8217;t open because I don&#8217;t have the right extensions. But I thought I would put some of the info out here to let you see what I found.</p>
<p>First of all, if this is true, we&#8217;ve all been had! For instance:</p>
<p>&#8220;Small point: the first sentence in section 2 states that MSU derived temperature has been monitored from space since 1978 but in reality they have only been monitored since Christy and Spencer first put out their MSU product in the late 1980s.  The data does go back to 1978 but I don’t think anyone was actually doing real-time monitoring starting then.</p>
<p>1.    p142, reducing sea level by 40m 9Ky BP ago, the land surface is now higher in this simulation compared to those later in the sequence. A simple lapse rate calculation would make this simulation 0.24ºC cooler than the later ones.</p>
<p>2.    A comment about the necessity to undertake independent verification of reconstructions (cf Jones and Mann, 2004) would be appropriate at the bottom of p7,  This could be contrasted with Moberg et al. (2005) where their low frequency variability is essentially an ‘act of faith’ as the slowly responding proxies cannot be verified.</p>
<p>General Comments<br />
The idea that climate without human intervention can only undergo “natural variability”, and that “climate change” can only result from human activity is false and fallacious. It is in conflict with all that we know of evolution and geology. It is simply wrong to assume that “ climate change” automatically implies human influence on the climate.<br />
This fallacy is embraced by the Framework Convention on Climate Change, but the IPCC (Footnote to “Summary for Policymakers. Page 1) claim that they are prepared to accept “natural variability” as “climate change”. They are, however, unwilling to accept the truth, which is that climate can change without human intervention.</p>
<p>This fallacy renders worthless several conclusions of the Report, notably, that  “there has been a discernible human influence on the climate”. The surface temperature rise, however “unprecedented” could be “natural”, and the entire Chapter  12 “Detection of Climate Change and Attribution of Causes”  should be rejected as based on a false premise.</p>
<p>The statistical treatment of data, and of model simulation is inadequate throughout the Report. The conventional use of 95% confidence limits for estimates is followed only for surface temperatures, but ignored elsewhere, where a single standard deviation (60% confidence) is preferred, or no indication of the level of confidence is stated. For example, in Figure 2.11 (Chapter 2, page 101) showing ocean heat, error bars are only one standard error. They should be doubled.</p>
<p>The fact that satellite and weather balloon measurements in the lower troposphere do not show a warming for the past 21 years suggests strongly that the surface data are influenced by proximity to human habitation, rather than by greenhouse warming. There is insufficient attention paid to the evidence that this is so.</p>
<p>The assumed atmospheric concentration figures for carbon dioxide  for the SRES scenarios were included in the First Draft, but have now been deleted. Presumably you are ashamed to admit such absurd figures. Figures for all the other gases are given in Chapter 4 including ridiculously exaggerated figures for future methane concentrations.</p>
<p>The scenarios are merely the personal opinions of their creators, who seem uninterested in  procedures for checking whether any of the scenarios agree with past or future trends.<br />
Recent  unwelcome changes in greenhouse gases are ignored. Carbon dioxide emissions from combustion of fossil fuels have fallen for the years 1997 and 1998. The rate of increase of  atmospheric methane has steadily decreased over the past 15 years, to a current value of zero, yet you persist in projecting increases.</p>
<p>47 out of 91 models listed in Chapter 9 assume that carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing at the rate of 1% a year when the measured rate of increase, for the past 33 years, has been 0.4% a year. The assumption of false figures in models in order to boost future projections is  fraudulent. What other figures are falsely exaggerated in the same way?</p>
<p>By extension, the rest of the document suffers greatly.  The Policymakers Summary contains several rhetorically alarming statements that are sure to misused in the hue and cry that will result from the leaking of this document at a critical time in the American election cycle.  Some of the SRES scenarios  are simply politically correct fantasies that are logically inconsistent.</p>
<p>Note that the Technical Summary and the SPM are reviewed after the Chapters.<br />

<p>General Comments<br />
1. It is unfortunate the the recent version of TAR makes no reference to the ease which nitrous oxide emission may be reduced at the source, as described in references cited in my original comments.<br />
2. It is equally unfortunate that the TAR understates the current impact of nitrous oxide on global warming (now 13% that of carbon dioxide) by averaging data from pre-industrial times to the present.  Significant increase in atmospheric nitrous oxide began around 1960, when improved Haber-Bosch synthesis led to sharp increase of use of fertilizer nitrogen from 10 million metric tons in 1960 to 85 million tons today<br />

<p>General Comments</p>
<p>Executive Summary<br />
This individual review paper focuses on IPCC&#8217;s three most essential modelling and core parameter errors. The impacts on all modelling results would be so tremendous that if the TAR would be corrected for these errors, there would hardly be any more justification for it. So this paper addresses only few individual TAR fallacies, but focuses on the nondisclosed flawed science it is based on.</p>
<p>Solar impacts<br />
Taking into account the impact of solar variability on global warming, best fit studies have revealed that solar forcing is amplified by at least a factor 4. By leaving out this &#8216;Svensmark factor&#8217; and using an exaggerated aerosol cooling, IPCC maintains a CO2 doubling sensitivity of 2.5 °C that is about a factor 3 too high.</p>
<p>Carbon cycle<br />
Our global Carbon Cycle Model reveals a half-life time of only 38 years for any CO2 excess. With present constant global CO2 emission until 2100, the temperature would only further increase by 0.15 °C. Scenario IS92a would end up with 571 ppm only. IPCC assumed that far more fossil reserves would be burnt than being available. Using a flawed eddy diffusion ocean model, the IPCC has grossly underestimated the future oceanic CO2 uptake. Hardly coping with biomass response, limited fossil reserves and using a factor 4 temperature sensitivity, all this leads to an IPCC exaggeration factor of about 6 in yr 2100. The usable fossil reserves of 1300 GtC burnt by 2090, merely cause 548 ppm – not even a doubling. The WRE 650, 750 and 1000 ppm scenarios, projected until 2300, are infeasible. Emission reduction is absolutely useless: the realistic temperature effect of Kyoto till 2050 will be only 0.02 °C.</p>
<p>While there is a need to paint a clear picture, the text exhibits a tendency to overstate levels of certainty and underplay the legitimate disagreements that do exist. It will not help to underplay uncertainties, just as they should not be overplayed.</p>
<p>Chapter 11 on sea level rise provides a good discussion of the processes that affect sea level. However, the expert reviewers from the United States strongly believe that the scenarios and reported results must be changed (1) to reflect a much greater degree of uncertainty regarding the likely behavior of ice sheets and (2) to increase the likely contribution of small glaciers to sea level.  The current draft’s high estimate for the Antarctic contribution is much lower than the high estimate implied by the two expert panel assessments that have been published, and needs to be increased by 10-20 centimeters.  The range of sensitivities for the Greenland contribution needs to be much wider to deal with the disparity between modeled and empirical observations of the relationship between global temperature and Greenland precipitation, as well as several uncertainties regarding ice dynamics.  The estimates of the small-glacier contribution are too small, because they do not deal with the historic or future contributions from small glaciers in Antarctica, which occur on a scale too small to be reflected in the models of Antarctic ice sheets. The United States is aware that altering the results will require some effort; but for the IPCC scenarios to genuinely reflect the existing state of scientific uncertainty and understanding, those changes are necessary&#8221;</p>
<p>It sounds to me like they are making it up as they go along. But I&#8217;ll let you make up your own mind. I have only scratched the surface so far, but I thought I&#8217;d give you a heads up. Remember this when they try to pass Cap and Trade. The next step from that is signing the Copenhagen Treaty which overrides our Constitution! Will you give up your freedom for a lie?</p>
