The National Center for Atmospheric Research, the Climate Research Unit, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Organization, and the CIA all believed a little ice age was coming in that time period. Which would explain the climate gate emails. Here's a few examples of the experts' opinions, discussed only in private: If people directly benefiting off of a problem admit there are problems, then it is drastically understated. That is precisely the problem. Results are overestimated and the groups that back man made climate change the most have the chance to get more power out of it. Maybe if it wasn't 99% of the reports overestimating global warming, it would be more believable. I probably should have picked a better source, but I'm not from the UK and only found that site from a google search, since I didn't think people would accept evidence from a global warming skeptic site. However, see the spoiler above where the Climate Research Unit admits the plateau in temperature increase. There is also this graph from NASA This is from the climategate 2.0 emails: They tacitly admitted that no, they don't have the full picture of what is causing changes in climate. So you say that skeptics of global warming are primarily funded by coal, natural gas, shale and oil, but then go on to praise solar, wind and geothermal companies? Wouldn't those natural energy companies have a vested interest in keeping global warming research alive and in the spotlight, as well as stifling their competition through legislation? With the fear of man made imminent doom global warming, the benefactors are the United Nations, the Environmental Protection Agency, research institutes, colleges and universities, as well as those aforementioned green energy companies that require government subsidies to make a profit. The only people making money off of the global warming scare are the people who are being paid to research it. It should also be noted that that same media, which you say is firmly united against global warming scientists, often barely glossed over the fact that the research vessel that got trapped in Antarctica last winter was a global warming research expedition (1,2,3,4,5). I searched through the articles for the words "climate," "global" and "melting," but the only 2 results were the name of the unit on the CNN article. My point was referring to the predictions made backed up by reputable organizations. Coming Ice Age(aforementioned agencies). No more winter( Max Planck Institute of Meteorology, the Geographic Institute of the University of Zurich, the University of East Anglia, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the University of Kiel, and the Environmental Defense Fund). Arctic ice completely melting(Max Planck Institute, Danish Climate Center, Bernt Balchen, whose prediction is 14 years late as of now). Again, I don't believe people that have repeatedly made failed predictions in the past, especially when they want my money for yet another prediction and they admit they don't fully understand what they are basing their predictions off of. Your resort to ad hominem attacks to attempt to paint me as heartless really is quite funny though.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2261577/Global-warming-stopped-16-years-ago-Met-Office-report-reveals-MoS-got-right-warming--deniers-now.html Again, my beliefs are based off of the failed predictions of the so called experts on global warming. If they do not know what they are talking about, why should I believe them? I think it is rather simple logic. If some one believes 2+2=5 and 5-2=10, why should they be trusted to know the the square root of 100, and why should they be continued to be given billions of dollars to try to prove their claims? If global warming was actually primarily caused by man, and not from natural cycles in the Earth's climate complicated by gravitational pulls by the solar system, then we would have a solution to solving the problem by now instead of "send more money." Quite frankly, it won't bite me on the arse, and even if it did, the people predicting whatever doom would happen to fall out of the sky would be a few hundred years early.

That's a quote from some one who should be an expert on the matter, who at the time was in charge of the world governmental body tasked with researching global warming. If that source isn't good enough to show how ridiculous claims are, then I don't know of anything that can be done to answer your questions satisfactorily.

Pretty sure Sergiyj was using a heavy dose of sarcasm.

Show me one of those actual predictions that have been correct. I could show you 2 false predictions by many of the so called global warming experts for each accurate one you can show me. The part of the snow no longer falling was endorsed by the Max Planck Institute of Meteorology, the Geographic Institute of the University of Zurich, the University of East Anglia, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the University of Kiel, and the Environmental Defense Fund. And before those past 30 years, the climate change buzzword was "Global Cooling". Over the past 15 years, the temperature has increased by "very close to zero" Tell your point about coastal cities flooding to Lubos Moti, Czech physicist “It is now pretty clearly agreed that CO2 content [in the atmosphere] will rise 25% by 2000. This could increase the average temperature near the earth’s surface by 7 degrees Fahrenheit. This in turn could raise the level of the sea by 10 feet. Goodbye New York. Goodbye Washington, for that matter.” So how come we are still for trying to stop it then? Clearly that ultimatum passed, and we have been doomed to global warming the past 14 years, despite the US having very lengthy winters the past few years. There was also a large consensus of science backing up global cooling in the 70's. http://stevengoddard.wordpress.com/1970s-ice-age-scare/. The large numbers agreeing did not make them any more right than the scientists viciously arguing that the Earth was flat several hundred years ago. I don't have a Ph.D, but common sense says that after a cooling trend, the Earth's temperature would rise. But where is the money scientists can make off of saying that everything is normal, especially if there is no impending doom?

According to the UN, which has access to the best scientists, it should have happened 14 years ago. A 14 year late prediction put out by the body that should have the most credibility on the subject failed. These failed predictions are why I laugh at every new global warming doom prediction.

I may have made a few mistakes. I'll consent to that. But there was a miniature ice age just over 150 years ago, and it is logical to assume temperatures would increase after that. However, my point still stands that those geniuses of the scientific community, who know so much about the subject, have repeatedly made failed predictions over the last 30 years. Come back to me when snow stops falling, the ice caps melt instead of grow, the temperature increases more than 0 degrees over 15 years, and all coastal cities flood from rising sea levels.

I heard it can support 255 liveries spawning in traffic.

Quite honestly, if people aren't smart enough to move over for red/blue lights, they probably won't move over for an amber advisory either. What most departments in my area are currently doing is having a traffic advisor pattern with red and blue lights on either the lightbar or the interior lights.

Not too many, but here are 2: '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>> http://gtapolicemods.com/downloads.php?do=file&id=1297

I already preordered it and preloaded it about an hour ago. I'm ready for a 24 hour marathon.

That would imply that we had the budget, much less the staffing capabilities, to make a standalone game. It takes over 1,000 people for each GTA. LCPDFR has 3 developers, and they are solely scripters/model editors. An entire map, as well as models and animations would have to be made, which there is no experience with on this team.

There's this pack, but it's old so there are no els configuration files. It will work just fine with ELS V8 though. '?do=embed' frameborder='0' data-embedContent>>

Compared to when? There is no accurate data on year by year temperature increases before the last ice age. There is simply nothing to compare it to, and, since we left an ice age less than 5,000 years ago, it would be reasonable to beleive that the Earth will continue to naturally warm.
