The discovery of a 240-million-year-old dinosaur in southern Tanzania has led scientists to rethink their evolution. An almost complete skeleton of the species, Asilisaurus kongwe or “ancient lizard ancestor” was reconstructed using the remains of at least 14 other dinosaurs.
UK plans first nuclear fusion power plant
Link: http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/science/article7034945.ece
BRITISH scientists have drawn up plans to build the world’s first nuclear fusion power station. They say it could be pouring electricity into the National Grid within 20 years. Nuclear fusion, the power that lies at the heart of the sun, offers the prospect of clean, safe, carbon-free power with a minimum of radioactive waste. But despite decades of research the technical problems have seemed insurmountable.
How a hobbit is rewriting the history of the human race

The discovery of the bones of tiny primitive people on an Indonesian island six years ago stunned scientists. Now, further research suggests that the little apemen, not Homo erectus, were the first to leave Africa and colonise other parts of the world, reports Robin McKie. It remains one of the greatest human fossil discoveries of all time. The bones of a race of tiny primitive people, who used stone tools to hunt pony-sized elephants and battle huge Komodo dragons, were discovered on the Indonesian island of Flores in 2004.
Nissan Leaf Electric Car Comes to New York

The Nissan Leaf was shown to the press on Thursday. It will be on display at the Time Warner Center on Friday. Nissan had originally planned to bring its Leaf electric car concept to 22 American cities, but requests from Atlanta and Boston made it 24. Nissan will sell or lease the Leaf only with batteries included, no separate battery deals. The next step, in April, will be to ask those interested consumers to put down a refundable $100 deposit to reserve a place in line for the Leaf, which has 100-mile range and a top speed of 90 miles per hour.
I thought of killing myself, says climate scandal professor Phil Jones

THE scientist at the centre of the “climategate” email scandal has revealed that he was so traumatised by the global backlash against him that he contemplated suicide.
Giant UFOs around the Sun? NASA claims malfunction, physicist says giant ET UFOs use Sun’s star gate
FIG. A- NASA: Stereo solar image, Jan. 23, 2010NASA’s Stereo spacecraft monitoring the Sun began registering huge spherical UFO’s in the vicinity of the Sun around January 18, 2010. According to one observer, the UFOs “appear to be moving as they are in different positions on many [of the NASA Stereo] photos, and are huge possibly at least the size of Earth. If the UFOs were planets or some type of huge asteroid comets, they would already have been pulled into the Sun by the strong gravity the Sun produces as in the case of the recent comet."
Scientists: Dolphins Are 'Non-Human Persons'
Link: http://www.newser.com/story/77384/scientists-dolphins-are-non-human-persons.html
Dolphins are not only the world's smartest animal after humans, they're so intelligent they deserve to be classed as "non-human persons." So say scientists who argue their research on dolphins' brains shows it is unethical to keep such the animals captive in amusement parks or to kill them for food or accidentally through fishing, the London Times reports.

Eighty percent of the American population now believe that man is responsible for global warming. Emerging science, however, is providing important new understanding of this issue. Yet, this information is not getting out to people, especially to our school children. It has not been proven that man is responsible for global warming or cooling.

Six Georgia Congressmen Challenge Greenhouse Regulations
Link: http://www.11alive.com/news/local/story.aspx?storyid=139198&catid=3
Six Republican congressmen from Georgia have signed onto an Atlanta-based organization's legal challenge of a federal announcement that could lead to government regulation of greenhouse gas emissions. The Southeastern Legal Foundation filed a petition last week calling on the Environmental Protection Agency to reconsider its Dec. 7 "endangerment finding" declaring carbon dioxide and other gases linked to global warming a threat to public health and the environment. The petition argues that news of a conspiracy within the scientific community to hide evidence that calls into question manmade impacts on global warming has emerged since the closing of public comment on the EPA filing.

Earlier I wrote about the Arctic Oscillation Index going strongly negative in December and what new cold to expect in January. From NASA’s Earth observatory, we have a high resolution temperature anomaly map that provides visualization of the effects. This image was taken while the Copenhagen Climate Conference was in progress.
