Great comment. Thanks.

The effect of CO2 declines logarithmically. The first 20ppm CO2in the atmosphere has a greater effect
than the following 300ppm. The incremental effect of increasing CO2at the present 385ppm level is almost immeasurable. Why don't climate "science" articles acknowledge the actual physics of CO2? It's lower now than it was before there were human beings to invent acronyms like AGW.

This is a political paper quoting the druthers of have-not nations against the more affluent nations, the wishes of feminists and substituting "projected" consequences for real data. The ostensible remedies with 1 degree vs 2 degrees all seem to require massive redistribution of wealth from the US and a clamp on US energy production. There is no mention of such excellent energy solutions a liquid metal thorium reactors.

This is exactly the kind of garbage that passes for climate science.

There is a lot of bad info here. I'm a tax practitioner. It should not be a big problem for the average EU person. Here is the current US law on foreign income for US citizens:

Foreign Earned Income Exclusion - 911
Worldwide income of a U.S. citizen is subject to U.S. tax. In addition, a foreign coun-try can tax foreign income. Without any relief, the income could be subjected to dou-ble taxation. The Code provides two relief provisions:
(1) The foreign tax credit, which allows a taxpayer to claim a credit against U.S. taxes for foreign taxes paid, and
(2) The foreign earned income exclusion, which allows a taxpayer to exclude for-eign earned income.
Foreign earned income is compensation from personal services rendered in a foreign country during periods while the bona fide residence or 330-day test is satisfied. Sec-tion 911 requires that the bona fide resident status must be for an uninterrupted period that includes a full year.
The exclusion is limited to $99,200 (in 2014) per year. If a husband and wife both qualify for the foreign earned income exclusion, each has a separate exclusion availa-ble, and community property rules do not apply.
Note: If the foreign earned income exclusion is elected, the foreign tax credit cannot be claimed for the foreign tax allocated to the excluded income.

The antennas look like UHF gear, not cell phone gear. Same with the handi talkies.

The statistics are accurate. Dead people score zero METs.

Easy. They will not have valid credit cards.

Lack of a powder magazine does not a safe ship make.

Whatever powers those lasers and railguns has to pack the equivalent energy. Nukes, jet fuel or anti-matter converters all have containment issues. You can't pack all that power in a small space safely.

Then there are torpedoes. Every navy needs them. They carry explosives.

Contrary to popular opinion, correct dosage of testosterone does not enlarge the prostate or decrease fertility. However, if you have prostate cancer with cells that have testosterone binding, you will be feeding the cancer cells.

I cruised a large sailboat for a few years in the Paciifc and the Atlantic. We met a lot of kids who were being "sea schooled" using one of the fine correspondence schools that caters to cruisers. These were happy, well adjusted, kids whose basic education included multiple cultures and languages, a deep sense of responsibility as crew, and plenty of socialization experiences.

Many of these cruisers "swallowed the anchor" eventually and put their kids in public schools to meet the various state qualifications for university entry. According to the teachers in the San Diego public school system that I spoke to, these kids were usually a grade or two ahead and far more mature that their peers in age.

This is different from some parents that are sheltering their kids from protective or religious reasons, but it points to the fact that the quality of home schooling depends on the parents, the kids, and the actual curriculum. Generalities will be misleading.

I had the freeze bug in a VM system on a Mac running Parallels. I downloaded Ubuntu 14.04 from Parallels and could not get around it. Then I downloaded directly from Canonical and it worked just find. I assumed it was a bad download from Parallels, but perhaps it is more subtle. The virtual machine has the same vulnerabilities - is that a clue?

That's not science, its a wrestling match.

Mod this up.

Warmists are mostly political and much of the "science" published consists of projections and cherry-picked data. The outcome is not any kind of climate science but a big push for a new, and onerous tax on energy at all levels. I have yet to see:
1. A climate model that includes taxes
2. A warmist posting for baseline energy sources such as thorium reactors or LFTR's.
3. Local use of local power sources, as opposed to huge grid projects
4. A warmist decrying the waste of resources and the dangers of "smart" meters

Sure.
I lost my watch down the street, but the light is better under the lamp-post.

Wrong. The specialty channels will multiply and get delivery by streaming. Broadcast cable is for broadcast, which means popular.
