Use a fucking heat gun. Don't back your shit. Jesus, what kind of fucking rookies live in this world?
From TFA, he did use a heat gun when it failed again. That did not work. Then he used the oven again and drill some holes for air flow. That worked.
I believe this is the group that pushed the defeated Prop 46 this year. This is a proposition that 1. increase the cap on malpractice sue from the current $250K to $1M and 2. required doctors and nurses undergo random drug test.
there is always the question 'but what caused that'? really? there is "always" this question only if you continue to think about the world in the same mindset.
you don't have to search for an answer in the world through Newtonian glasses. "caused" implies causation. causation implies a before, and an after. first there is the cause, then there is its effects. abstract ideas like before and after are looking at the world from a point of view of LINEAR time.
if you truly study relativity
If you truly study relativity, you'll see the words "causality" and "causal" used. It's not a strictly Newtonian idea. As long as there's no faster-than-light travel, "X happens before Y" is an invariant - it's true in all reference frames.
Only if the two events are time-like separated. That is, there does not exist a frame in which they are simultaneous. If two event are space-like separated, there is one frame in which they are simultaneous. Then there is a frame in which A occurs before B and another frame in which B occurs before A. The two events cannot be causally connected.
If two events are time-like separated, (basically means their spacial separation / time separation is less than speed of light), then their order of occurrence is fixed in all frame. Because in this case, it is in principle possible for A to causally effect B since any signal emitted at event A can travel to B at no faster than the speed of light, the causal relationship between A and B is the same in all frame.
tl;dr If A can cause B in one frame, A can cause B in all frames.
Thirdly, unless you've just moved to San Diego, you're quite aware of the 2003 and 2007 fires. These were (also) not the result of global warming.
I remember both of those cases well: classes are cancelled for a week, because they occurred during Fall semester in September/October. This one is in May. Having a longer fire season is exactly what the OP is stating.
China also won't join Russia because they don't want what Russian is proposing for Crimea, referendum for independent, become an international precedent for its many regions: Taiwan, Tibet, etc.
Why are we still in this Cold War mentality that the two formal communist countries are join at the hip. They have many diagonal interests, even during the Cold War.
I have no problem with presenting creationism as an alternative, as long as you include ALL creation myths in the curriculum. It wouldn't be "teaching the controversy" unless you teach them all.
I mean, sure, we all really KNOW that the world began when Udu the Space Tortoise shat out the earth and His godly flatulence created the sun, but we have to let the kids decide for themselves.
I have no problem with what you are suggesting either. Just don't do it in a science classroom because none of these are science.
Please! Someone buy these idiots a history book. This is such a perfect example of people who think they're smart but they actually know jack shit about anything except pushing bits. The funny thing is, after the first arbitrary detention and execution of a dissident for "lesse majesty" or "treason against the crown" they'd all be up in arms and in jail. I really hope they're not all really this stupid and this is all just a way to get a reaction.
Just so happened that I read this today:

These guys think they are smart. That if other smart people are put in charge, their ability (if they actually possesses it) would be recognized and rewarded. But if their innovation disturbs the power of elites that they are proposing to put on top, whom they think will grand them reward for innovation, they are reading history (if they have read history) wrong.
Seriously. If you imagine that you will come out on top when your competition in a job interview is a noticeably lesser-able, but probably competent, son of the CEO, you got to examine your understanding of human society.
With the rapid adoption of portable electronics, Eesha Khare, 18, of Saratoga, California, recognized the crucial need for energy-efficient storage devices. She developed a tiny device that fits inside cell phone batteries, allowing them to fully charge within 20-30 seconds. Eesha’s invention also has potential applications for car batteries.
Will be doing some more Googling, but seriously, a link to the lab in which she worked or article/abstract published would be nice. Surely these are gifted kids, but I can't help but think the reporter really doesn't understand what she's done to write any thing more than a press release.
Touch screens go out of calibration, leading to opportunities for all sorts of shenanigans.

or get and Android Phone. That is what I am going to do.
Never underestimate what people are willing to go through (on any device) to mask the cognitive dissonant that the latest precious they just bought does not justify its price or hype. The effort people go through to justify the sunk cost, both in economy and psychology.
They have to pay for the ex-Google Mappers somehow. It's either that or convince people to start renaming continents.
It seems someone at Apple is reading xkcd:

And all those distorted map image makes sense once you realized Apple is mapping our dreams, Inception style.
