To elaborate, what you're doing is citing a study without understanding anything about it, out of context, and claiming it relates to an issue upon which it has very little bearing. That experiment didn't disprove that the moon is made of green cheese either.
You read about that paper on some non-scientific propaganda site like WUWT or Denial Depot. People there, who have no more understanding of science than you do, claimed that the paper meant something it doesn't, and you believed them because it fit in with your preconceived notions.
Dig a little deeper next time.
Hmmm... that's not what the scare-mongers over at MIT say:
Um... because that theory is not real science and has been completely debunked.
This whole line of reasoning seems plausible on the surface, until you actually do some research into it.
It's not a matter of optimal, it's a matter of what we're used to. Radical, rapid change in climate (such as we're already experiencing, and it'll get much worse) changes rainfall patterns and other factors that will force us to change where we build our cities, where we grow our food, etc. That kind of adjustment is incredibly expensive, much more expensive than taking reasonable mitigation steps now.
You want to move people out of areas that might be affected? OK, then start with the entire continental US, which is projected to experience severe drops in precipitation that will make the dustbowl look like a monsoon. And that's just one dimension of the probable impacts.
See this article, "Real adaptation is as politically tough as real mitigation, but much more expensive and not as effective in reducing future misery":

Speaking from experience with the Dells that I've owned, they provided proper manuals telling you everything you need to know to service the machine and replace the various parts. So you should be OK in that regard.

Here's a new one: http://www.news10.net/news/article/141207/2/DOE-raids-Stockton-home-as-part-of-fraud-probe.
OIG is a semi-independent branch of the education department that executes warrants for criminal offenses such as student aid fraud, embezzlement of federal aid and bribery, according to Hamilton. The agency serves 30 to 35 search warrants a year.
I really distrust this multiplication of departments with police powers. They tend to be answerable to no one. Not that the local police are a whole lot better, but at least they are local. Any organization exercising police powers should be subject to direct public oversight. Not just Arne Duncan, even though he did play in the NBA Celebrity All-Star game.
That said, I'm not sure that this was actually unlawful. The DOE was executing a legal search warrant. Whether or not that gives them the right to handcuff him and keep him in a squad car for the duration, I do not know. It would probably depend on his behavior.
The way that this happened probably should be unlawful. Whether it actually is, or not, is open to question.
