These people created stimuli that are supposed to sound like the steps between a Proto-Germanic monophthong and the corresponding Old English diphthong, i.e., the x-axis is the degree of monophthongization to dipthongization. They then made listeners judge whether they heard a dipthong or monophthong (after som training).

'Unequivocal' Evidence that Humans Cause Climate Change, Contrary to Posts of Old Video

There is "unequivocal" evidence that humans are causing global warming, the U.N. climate change panel has said. But viral posts revive a 2014 video of Weather Channel co-founder John Coleman falsely claiming "climate change is not happening." The channel, which supports the scientific consensus that climate change is real, had distanced itself from Coleman.

Lethargy in teens is often mistaken for laziness or apathy, or a stubborn refusal to go to bed at a "reasonable time" (another example of their famous rebelliousness). In truth it is beyond their control; their body clocks are programmed in a way that is simply out of sync with adults' rhythms. We feel sleepy when levels of melatonin rise in the brain at night – and, in the morning, we will wake up feeling alert once it has dropped below a certain level. For teens, melatonin simply rises and falls later in the day than adults – meaning that they will feel alert and active when their parents are ready to hit the hay, and tired and drowsy in the early morning, when their parents may have already been up for hours. "Virtually no adults will have melatonin left in their brains at nine o'clock in the morning," says Coleman, "but around half of teenagers do.

"The government puts out about 2.5 billion dollars directly for climate research every year. It only gives that money to scientists who will produce scientific results that support the global warming hypothesis of the Democrat party position. So, they don't have any choice. If you want to get the money, you've got to support their position. Therefor, 97% of the scientific reports published support global warming."
