Washington Post seemed to have a nice rebuttal:

I read your link completely, then Washington, so it's not like I'm completely being ignorant of one side of the argument here.
Basically the link provided by you "tell us about trends in ice covering the oceans of the polar regions, not frozen ice on land."
Based on http://nsidc.org/arcticseaicenews/, this doesn't seem to be any new revolutionary news.
They also mentioned that, even in the link provided, "a 5.5 percent downtrend in overall sea ice area" is seen.
So I'd say there's still room for debate.
Remember when al gore told you everything would melt in 2014 lol.

Neat find, but the same people also said this: http://climate.nasa.gov/news/2237/
“Even though Antarctic sea ice reached a new record maximum this past September, global sea ice is still decreasing...
That’s because the decreases in Arctic sea ice far exceed the increases in Antarctic sea ice.”
I agree that Al Gore was obviously wrong on his prediction and certainly exaggerated a lot of the statistics though. 👆
