Perry links fossil fuel development to preventing sexual assault

I dated a guy who was a camera man, worked several GOP events in Austin. You would not believe how rascist and homophobe those Austin politicians can be when they think no one is listening.

Ya, you can keep Texas for sure !!
I think all politicians are likely racist in their own way.
If you dislike Texas so much, why are you still registered to vote here?

Did I say I hated it, nope. Your assuming way to much. Again, you were educated in Texas ?
 
You missed the point entirely, were you educated in Texas ?
Not at all, You made innuendos about Perry's sexual preferences, like it should matter.
Not very open minded! People are who they are, the only question is how good do they do their job.
In Perry's case, he did a good job of leading Texas to a better economy.

Very true, why should I care if Perry hires male escorts, just setting the record straight. Question, is Perry a top or bottom? Lol

I have a degree from New York, but am very familiar with Texas Higher education,
While it might surprise you, Texas Universities have to adhere to the same standards that universities
across the country do, it is so all those moving to Texas for jobs can continue their education.

Again, why should his personal life matter?

And how does Texas rank nationally for primary and high school education? Be honest, I know the answer

Those transplants best home school their children. Let me help you out some, you will need to scroll down some as Texas is near the bottom.

I know the Texas school system has issues with the large number of immigrants,
but the school districts vary in quality. The good ones do a great job, the bad one not so much.
I suspect the same could be said of schools in Boston, some good and some bad, if possible, send your kids to the good ones.
Higher education in Texas needs to do a better job of articulating how inexpensive a good degree can be in Texas.
Back when I looked at such things, there was a high school where only about 40% of the students were considering
higher education, in many ways that is a failure of the school.
 
Before climate change was part of the curriculum, I suppose.
Science is Science, the data is all that matters.
At the very heart of the concept known as AGW, is the idea that doubling the CO2 level
will cause and energy imbalance of energy entering and leaving the top of the atmosphere.
The number used in the more recent models is 3.71 Wm-2.
The problem come in when the CERES satellite measures the energy imbalance over a change in CO2 level,
the sensitivity is much lower. Everything in the concept stems from that number being accurate.

I had MSc and PhD classes on climate change from various disciplines, I've worked with all the data, models, meta data, various software. You're not gonna sell me on a CT.
 
Your conclusion is wrong. Men know that it is wrong to rape women. Its very common knowledge. There are men that do it despite that knowledge. They don't care about the women or the law. There is no such thing as an accidental rape. No amount of teaching is going to stop a predator of that ilk. What stops a predator is by NOT being easy prey. That means learning to defend yourself and others around you should they require your assistance. The women in my family in our local communities have a reputation that precedes them. (There's a story involving a cheese grater. Its somewhat true and the ladies of the family don't worry about its accuracy.) They go were they please regardless of whether predators are about or not. They are confident they can make whoever crosses them wish they hadn't, because they are very well trained and practiced.

But it does. It just objectively does. That's why the sorts of places that teach that have less rape.

A lot of men think rape is wrong, UNLESS. That is the problem.

Were are you getting this unless? I have never heard of it. Last I checked no meant no. I don't were you live but around were I do if a woman says no and guy has his way regardless that's rape and punishable by law upon conviction. What the hell does more education do? Nothing. Concepts pretty damn simple, no means no, and every guy knows that. They either take no for an answer or they don't. If they don't they are by definition rapist. What is hard about that? What is the problem with being able to defend yourself against people who don't take no for an answer? Last I checked all men aren't gentlemen, and there are more than a few predators around. I am bit biased mind you because my family are full of women who are by nature ass kickers and take **** from no one. They would look at you like you were insane for what you are saying. I kinda wondering myself. There shouldn't be a problem with a woman having the skills and practice necessary to defend herself should she encounter trouble. To be honest that last statement should apply to all, as last I checked aint no one immune from trouble.

So is the Physics somehow different?
Can energy be created?
No, I am afraid that without the energy imbalance (flux) changing at the predicted doubling curve, it means
ether the doubling curve is incorrect, or some unaccounted for variable is causing negative feedback.
It really does not matter which one, since if the added energy does not exists, it cannot be an input for a feedback system.
Consider that from 2001 to 2011 CO2 rose from 371.14 ppm to 391.65 ppm, there should be a steady .2877 Wm-2 rise.
5.35 X ln (391.65/371.14)=.2877 Wm-2.
What was recorded was flat to a slight decline.

CO2 as it exists in the atmosphere is doing something different than they expect.
The diurnal asymmetry, the seasonal asymmetry, predicted a century ago is real, and messing up the models.
