Classicman, this a quote from your second article

But Trenberth's "lack of warming at the moment" has been going on at least a decade. "There has been no [surface-measured] warming since 1997 and no statistically significant warming since 1995," observes MIT meteorologist Richard Lindzen. "According to satellite data, global warming stopped about 10 years ago and there's no way to know whether it's happening now," says Roy Spencer, former NASA senior scientist for climate studies.
This is from Merc's link:



Not taking uncertainty into account, we went up 0.1 degree since 2000. Even with the maximum uncertainty against high temperatures, we still went up around 0.05 degrees. I wouldn't call that a lack of warming. The following is the only graph that makes sense with the above argument.

Most of their sources derived from one person? Maybe its true but the sources page on even one IPCC section has at least 25-50 peer review scholarly sources.
