Biography: A lawyer turned photographer, Cherie trained for several years at the New England School of Photography in Boston. Spending her childhood summers in rural Michigan instilled in her a love of the natural world that is reflected in her photographs. Cherie shoots with film and a large-format camera, and prints her negatives by hand using traditional darkroom techniques. Asked why she still uses film, Cherie replies that she loves the anticipation, as well as the uncertainty of the process, and that she feels more connected to the rich history of photography when printing in the darkroom.


Urban heat from paved roads, buildings, and machinery can artificially inflate temperatures substantially above measured temperatures from non-urban areas. This introduces a significant non-climatic warming bias into long-term records.
Heat from an urban (or highly populated) environment can artificially raise temperatures by as much as 3°C to 10°C relative to nearby rural locations. This is true even for villages in the Arctic.
Kim, 1992 The results indicate that urban heating is attributable to a large excess in heat from the rapidly heating urban surfaces consisting of buildings, asphalt, bare-soil and short grasses. In summer, the symptoms of diurnal heating begin to appear by mid-morning and can be about 10°C warmer than nearby woodlands.
Scientists were at one time concerned that artificial warming biases from expanding urbanization might contaminate the measured surface temperature record.
As recently as the late 1980s it was concluded that the "artificial warming" from urban heat could add an extraneous 0.1°C to 0.4°C of warming per decade in some regions, and that the non-climatic warming attributed to urbanization exceeds the observed overall long-term trends after the 1950s. In other words, a substantial portion of the warming since the mid-20th century could be attributed to artificial heat.
Karl and Quayle, 1988 Karl et al., 1988) has shown that at some 'sun belt' cities in the West, the rise of temperature that can be attributed to the urban heat island is as much as 0.3 to 0.4°C per decade. In the East, the rise is over 0.1°C per decade. … The artificial warming in the primary station network, relative to the climate division data, is nearly 0.17°C over the past 34 years [1950s]. Such trends are at least as large as any of the observed trends over the United States (Karl, 1988) or the globe (Jones and Wigley, 1987).
Karl and Jones, 1989 Results indicate that in the United States the two global land-based temperature data sets have an urban bias between +0.1°C and +0.4°C over the twentieth century (1901-84). … The magnitude of this urban bias in two global, land-based data sets was found to be a substantial portion of the overall trend of global and regional temperatures.
The IPCC considers the year 1750 as the starting point for the radiative anthropogenic influence on climate, due principally to fossil fuel burning and concomitant CO2 emissions. Since 1850, CO2 concentrations have risen from 285 ppm to 400 ppm. During these ~165 years, the IPCC has concluded that surface temperatures have warmed by 0.78°C. This is a warming rate of only 0.05°C per decade for 1850-2012 — which happens to be the same rate of warming over the 1998-2012 period. Temperatures are rising at a rate of 0.12°C per decade during 1951-2012.
IPCC AR5 (2013): The globally averaged combined land and ocean surface temperature data as calculated by a linear trend, show a warming of 0.85°C over the period 1880 to 2012, when multiple independently produced datasets exist. The total increase between the average of the 1850–1900 period and the 2003–2012 period is 0.78 °C, based on the single longest dataset available 4 (see Figure SPM.1). … [T]he rate of warming over the past 15 years (1998–2012; 0.05 °C per decade), which begins with a strong El Niño, is smaller than the rate calculated since 1951 (1951–2012; 0.12 °C per decade).
As suggested above, (a) non-climatic urban heating may artificially add 0.1°C per decade (or more) to the temperature record; (b) the overall surface temperature record is only rising at a rate of +0.05°C to +0.12°C per decade; therefore, (c) this would imply that all or nearly all the warming since 1850 or 1950 may be attributed to rapidly expanding urbanization and measurement bias, not climate change.
Four new studies can be added to a large collection of scientific papers documenting an accelerating artificial warming bias.
Parker and Ollier, 2017 The global reconstructions as GISS (Hansen et al. 2010, GISTEMP Team 2017) are artificially biased upwards to reproduce the carbon dioxide emission trend, but the strong natural oscillation signal prevails. The very likely overrated warming rate since 1880 is 0.00654°C/year or 0.654°C/century. This rate increases to 0.00851°C/year or 0.851°C/century by considering the data only since 1910. The warming rate cleared of the oscillations is about constant since the 1940s.
As there is no way to perform a better measurement going back in the past, there is no legitimate way to correct recorded data of the past. Therefore, we should stick to the raw data.
Parker and Ollier, 2017 (Continued) Table 1 presents the warming trend for the 30 longest temperature records of Australia collected in a single location, with measurements started before 1900 and continued until after 1985. … In the 30 locations, the monthly mean maximum temperature is warming 0.0004°C/year, or 0.04°C/century. That means there is no change within the limits of accuracy of the measurements.
A definitive statement about the BOM procedure is provided by Parker (2016). The Global Historical Climatology Network (GHCN) v2 temperature time series (GISS Surface Temperature Analysis, 2012) in Alice Spring and all the 36 other stations located in a circle of 1,000 km from Alice Springs do not show any warming.
There are stations covering different time windows having very close patterns of temperatures. In this circle of 3,141,593 km2 (roughly 50% of Australia) that is mostly underdeveloped, none of the stations […] actually has a warming trend. … It is therefore only an artefact by BOM to produce the warming. Homogenization is supposed to be used to account for upwards biases such as Urban Heat Island, not to introduce upwards biases.
As noticed by Parker (2015a), the ACORN adjustments of Australian temperatures are in the wrong direction, inevitably in the direction to produce a warming much larger than the legitimate. In the centre of Australia, all the stations available in a circle of radius 1,000 km were showing very little or no warming, as still acknowledged in the GHCN v2 data set up to October 2011 (Fig. 6). To move from a scattered population of stations with unequal time coverage and many missing data but both uniformly not warming to produce the largest warming trend for Australia as depicted by the BOM it only requires many administrative corrections and the development of an ad-hoc procedure to compute spatial trends.
We should also consider the role of the Bureau of Meteorology. The climate trend maps compiled by Bureau of Meteorology in their climate change section are completely unreliable, as the alleged increasing temperature is obtained by lowering temperatures of the past by "adjustments".
The longest of the Australian temperature records that were considered the most reliable by Bureau of Meteorology on February 2009 (BOM 2009) are still available as raw temperatures in the climate data online section and consistently show no warming and no increased extreme events within the limit of accuracy of measurements.
Dienst et al., 2017 We here assess these influences and demonstrate that even in villages urban heat island biases might affect the temperature readings. … Due to the station movement from the village centre to the outskirts, the net correction results in an additional warming trend over the past 155 years. The trend increase is most substantial for minimum temperatures (+0.03 °C /10 years−1) [+0.47°C over 155 years] . … An increase in trend is even more severe if the 20th century is regarded exclusively, displaying a rise in annual mean temperature trend by +0.03 °C /10 years−1 and +0.07 °C /10 years−1 in annual minimum temperatures, respectively. … The adjustment of the Haparanda station record results in an increased warming trend.
Levermore et al., 2017 The urban heat island intensity in Manchester has a highly significant rising trend which by the end of the century could add 2.4 K to the average annual urban temperature, on top of the predicted climate change increase. An analysis of the urban morphology showed that the urban site had indeed become more urban over 9 years of the study, losing green spaces which mitigate against the UHII [urban heat island intensity].
Below are several more scientific papers supporting the conclusion that a substantial portion of modern warming can be traced to urbanization, bias, and measurement contamination.
McKitrick and Michaels, 2007 [E]xtraneous (nonclimatic) signals contaminate gridded climate data. The patterns of contamination are detectable in both rich and poor countries and are relatively stronger in countries where real income is growing. We apply a battery of model specification tests to rule out spurious correlations and endogeneity bias. We conclude that the data contamination likely leads to an overstatement of actual trends over land. Using the regression model to filter the extraneous, nonclimatic effects reduces the estimated 1980–2002 global average temperature trend over land by about half.
Ren et al., 2007 The annual urban warming at the city stations can account for about 65∼80% of the overall warming in 1961∼2000, and about 40∼61% of the overall warming in 1981∼2000.
Founda et al., 2015 Highlights: UHI [the Urban Heat Island effect] accounts for almost half of Athens' warming.
The study explores the interdecadal and seasonal variability of the urban heat island (UHI) intensity in the city of Athens. Daily air temperature data from a set of urban and surrounding non urban stations over the period 1970–2004 were used. Nighttime and daytime heat island revealed different characteristics as regards the mean amplitude, seasonal variability and temporal variation and trends. The difference of the annual mean air temperature between urban and rural stations exhibited a progressive statistically significant increase over the studied period, with rates equal to +0.2 °C/decade. A gradual and constant increase of the daytime UHI intensity was detected, in contrast to the nighttime UHI intensity which increases only in summer, after the mid 1980s.
Oyler et al., 2015 Artificial Amplification of Warming Trends …Western United States Observations from the main mountain climate station network in the western United States (US) suggest that higher elevations are warming faster than lower elevations. This has led to the assumption that elevation-dependent warming is prevalent throughout the region with impacts to water resources and ecosystem services. Here, we critically evaluate this network's temperature observations and show that extreme warming observed at higher elevations is the result of systematic artifacts and not climatic conditions. With artifacts removed, the network's 1991–2012 minimum temperature trend decreases from +1.16 °C decade−1 to +0.106 °C decade−1 and is statistically indistinguishable from lower elevation trends. Moreover, longer-term widely used gridded climate products propagate the spurious temperature trend, thereby amplifying 1981–2012 western US elevation-dependent warming by +217 to +562%. In the context of a warming climate, this artificial amplification of mountain climate trends has likely compromised our ability to accurately attribute climate change impacts across the mountainous western US.
Hughs and Balling, 1996 The long-term mean annual temperature record (1885 –1993) shows warming over the past century, with much of the warming occurring in the most recent three decades. However, our analyses show that half or more of this recent warming may be related to urban growth, and not to any widespread regional temperature increase.
Yang et al., 2011 [R]apid urbanization has a significant influence on surface warming over east China. Overall, UHI [urban heat island] effects contribute 24.2% to regional average warming trends. The strongest effect of urbanization on annual mean surface air temperature trends occurs over the metropolis and large city stations, with corresponding contributions of about 44% and 35% to total warming, respectively. The UHI trends are 0.398°C and 0.26°C decade−1. The most substantial UHI effect occurred after the early 2000s, implying a significant effect of rapid urbanization on surface air temperature change during this period.
de Freitas et al., 2015 New Zealand's national record for the period 1909 to 2009 is analysed and the data homogenized. Current New Zealand century-long climatology based on 1981 methods produces a trend of 0.91 °C per century. Our analysis, which uses updated measurement techniques and corrects for shelter-contaminated data, produces a trend of 0.28 °C per century.
I suspect that data contamination (by which I include not only homogenisation/adjustments, but also station moves, the change in distribution of stations away from rural to more urban, and to include ever more airport locations etc) together with natural multi-decadal variation accounts for all the apparent warming.
I suspect that if we were to select say 150 of the prime stations in the Northern Hemisphere (ie., those best sited with no nearby change in land use/encroachment of urbanisation, and with no station moves and the best practices and procedures) and if we were to retrofit these with the same LIG thermometers as used by the station in question back in the 1930s/1940s and then observe measurements in accordance with the same practice and procedure at the station in question (ie., same TOB for that station) then (on a comparison of RAW data to RAW data with no adjustments)there would be no significant increase in temperature over and above that measured by the station in question in the late 1930s/early 1940s.
In my opinion, it is no coincidence that the country where we have the most complete data and observations, the contiguous US, it shows no warming from the highs of the 1930s/1940s (in fact it suggest that there has been slight cooling since that time). There is no reason why given that CO2 is a well mixed gas at high altitude (ie., +/- 10 000m on ~395 ppm), the US should be an outlier and not typical of the Northern Hemisphere as a whole.
this is particularly materially since about 95% of all manmade CO2 emissions have taken place since about 1940, and I suspect that there has been no significant change in the Northern hemisphere since that time suggesting that Climate Sensitivity to CO2 is zero, or close thereto.
As Phil Jones stated in the Climategate emails, we have no real data on the Southern Hemisphere and SH temperatures are large made up, and Hansen in his 1981 paper accepted what PHil Jones said on the sparsity of SH data, we simply do not have the data to know what if any change has taken place in the SH (or for that matter global). We only have worthwhile data on the Northern Hemisphere and we know that the contiguous US, Iceland and Greenland all show the 1930s/1940s as being the same temperature as today.
Your suspicions are correct. Temp stations are poorly sited.
Oops. I see that BobW in NC 24. July 2017 at 4:17 PM has already posted the surfacestations link below.
And ocean temperature coverage was virtually NON-EXISTENT before 2003.
Which makes a total nonsense of Ocean Heat Content graphs such as Levitus et al.
I have spent about 30 years studying ship's data. and the problem is twofold. First, ship's data is extremely unreliable. Second, the shipping routes cover a very narrow band of ocean.
On commercial ships I have seen the engine log book, the deck log book, the noon day report to charterers, the noon day report to owners, the reoports to weather routing agencies and the Chief engineer's diary/personal notebook, all recording different data for the same momeent in time! Which one of these 6 records has the correct details? Perhaps none of them!!!
Further, there are wide error margins on ship's data and sometimes commercial reasons why ship's data is not recorded correctly.
This is one reason why there is no worthwhile information on the Southern Hemisphere which is largely ocean.
The idea that we have any global thermometer details prior to ARGO is farcical. Even today, the lamd area of the Southern Hemisphere is sparsely sampled.
Either one should look solely at the Northern Hemisphere, or one is left with the satellite data but unfortunately this goes back only to 1979, whereas it would be more interesting if it covered the highs of the 1930s/1940s.
Richard Keen discusses the paucity of data, as well as it's distortion by adjustments, here.
Do you have any papers on the ship measurements, and what's wrong with them (i.e., quantitatively)?
Also, I read a while back that they were distancing themselves from the ARGO data, because it wasn't validating their warming bias, but I can't find references to that at the moment.
Add to the discussion the fact that the measurements are all over the 30% land of the global surface and next to nothing over the 70% oceans of the global surface. And that the thermometers are not evenly distributed on the land masses.
Very few are in the forests and sparsely inhabited areas and polar icecaps.
How can the figures possibly be any where near a global average?
Ah, but maybe M. Mann and the 97% of Climate Scientists™ are correct, and all that non-urban countryside is cooling the temperatures too much. Thus these non-satellite records require curve fitting adjustments to correctly reflect the CO2 warming that is hiding there, and so the proper man-made warming is observed.
Why else adjust historic temperature records?
The temperatures in the countryside are not natural. The forests, meadows, lakes, ponds, streams and marches are artificially cooling the environment but such features don't exist in our cities and metropolitan areas. I would not report them at all but if you must, of course they should be adjusted upwards to conform to the representative temperatures measured in densely populated urban areas.
Colorado you have got to be joking. If you are just being sarcastic you should start with /sarc on/ and end with /sarc off/ or as yonason has done //s//.
Or are you just trying to take the mickey out of us 'skeptics'.
Well I'll bite 'Temperatures in the countryside are not natural'. REALLY? How about you tell us what you think is natural then? Anything that isn't hot perhaps? Should we accept that 'The forests, meadows, lakes, ponds, streams and marches (sic- marshes) are artificially cooling the environment' aren't natural either?
Thanks Andy and yonason apologies to Colorado. I need to lighten up a bit do I?
Here in New South Wales Australia we have just had a 20% increase in electricity charges with media reports of thousands of customers facing disconnection for being unable to pay their bill. ( De Ja Vous Germanies experience).
Major factors – Subsidised wind and solar destabilising a once stable government owned generation, transmission and distribution system.
Stupid, short sighted greed of State governments desire for immediate cash resulting in sale to private enterprise.
Perhaps it is time to look at buying a diesel Gen set.
Sympathies to you Don (and Andy) for being caught in the insanity of your watermelon "leaders." Hopefully it won't be long before sanity returns and prevails.
Don't listen to them, Don. I'm serious.
Sorry, Don, I don't use /sarc tags because I live among the watermelons of the People's Republic of Boulder and they don't use them either when writing things like my comment above.
Are you guys absolutely sure about what the post is trying to say?
Why do satellite record the same increase as ground based temperature measurements?
The satellite record does not extend back to 1930.
Do you think there could be a connection between extensive rural station temperature removal and a dramatic uptick in land surface temperatures? Or is this just a coincidence?
SebastianH, now that you're back, perhaps you could answer the question you have been asked (multiple times) but routinely avoided.
How much warming from a doubling of CO2 must one believe in to avoid being classified as a "denier" of the climate? Please be specific. How much warming do you believe we shall experience upon CO2 doubling? 4 degrees C? 5 degrees C? 6 degrees C? Is 3 degrees of warming the lowest threshold one must believe in? Below that, one becomes a "climate denier"?
Similarly, how many meters of sea level rise by 2100 must one believe in to avoid being called a "climate denier"? Is 1 meter of SLR "denier"? How about 2 meters?
How many species extinctions by 2050 must one believe in to avoid being called a "climate denier"? Is one million the lower limit? How about 2 million species extinctions? Is that "denier"?
In responding to this question, SebastianH, please be very specific. I'd really like to know the values that distinguish the deniers from the non-deniers.
Can a person of weak faith—i.e. someone who doesn't accept the doctrine of CO2 omnipotence and believes in lower numbers—buy climate indulgences and avoid being called a "climate denier"?
Authorized indulgences include but are not limited to driving a Prius or EV, eating organic vegetables, avoiding beef, buying wind electricity, sending money to Greenpeace or working for the election campaigns of progressive parties.
My reply from the last time still stands Kenneth. You become a denier when you say/publish nonsense like Mr. Lindzen did.
You can also be a denier if you say CO2 doubling will increase the temperature by 100 degrees. That term has nothing to do with what you are asking here … oh and it has nothing to do with the Holocaust either.
Dr. Lindzen, IPCC lead author, atmospheric physicist, author of 240+ peer-reviewed scientific papers, had his climate sensitivity paper featured in the last IPCC report. Lindzen agrees with the theoretical greenhouse effect, agrees that CO2 is a GHG, agrees that human emissions cause warming, and thus he agrees with AGW. And yet he has published multiple papers that indicate the climate's sensitivity to CO2 is 0.7 K upon doubling (including feedbacks). All this has been pointed out to you multiple times, and yet you still decided to call Dr. Lindzen a "climate denier". Why? Because he doesn't agree with you that catastrophic warming will occur upon CO2 reaching 560 ppm, nor does he agree with you that CO2 concentrations CONTROL the climate. Notice that he specifically uses that word in his "magic" quote, as there is a fundamental distinction between believing that CO2 concentration changes CONTROL the climate (as you do) and believing that CO2 concentration changes contribute to climate change, but not significantly (as Lindzen believes).
So this brings me to the question that I have asked you probably about 10 times in the last two months, and that you have danced around and successfully (?) avoided answering for the last two months: What is the minimal threshold of warming one must believe in from doubled CO2 (to 560 ppm) to avoid having people like you call them names like "denier"? What's the baseline temperature value for the denier/believer cut-off? If an atmospheric physicist is a "climate denier" because he concludes that the ECS is 0.7 K for CO2 doubling, by how many degrees does that need to be raised to avoid the name-calling? How much warming do you believe we'll get? Answer the question, SebastianH. It's not like I'm going to stop asking you to specifically respond to this question. It's fundamental.
They don't [matching satellites vs. NASA/NOAA temperature].
As this graph shows, there is a 0.5 K difference between the RSS temperature value (trend) in 2015 and the NASA/NOAA value (trend) in 2015. A half of a degree of difference is not a "match".
The values for UAH show the same trend difference (0.5 K) as the RSS vs. NASA/NOAA does for 2015. In other words, they don't match either.
All this has been pointed out to you multiple times, and yet you still decided to call Dr. Lindzen a "climate denier". Why?
you still decided to call Dr. Lindzen a "climate denier". Why?
Because he says nonsense regarding climate change and its consequences. Your question about climate sensitivity thresholds is pretty telling. As always you like simple answers and simple relations/connections … if it were only as simple as it's (often) in your world, but it isn't.
Do those lines look like they don't match for you?
Because he says nonsense regarding climate change and its consequences.
1. Why do you believe that CO2 controls the climate such that a 2% perturbation (560 ppm CO2) in a single variable out of the many contributing variables is the determinant of the planet's temperatures?
2. Why do you believe that a warming catastrophe lurks due to this 2% perturbation (560 ppm CO2) in a single variable, especially since even your own theorists conclude that doubling CO2 from 280 ppm to 560 ppm can, at most, cause a temperature change of 1.16 K? Why is a 1.16 K increase in temperature from the coldest period of the Holocene in about 10,000 years (LIA) a climate catastrophe, SebastianH?
Why not just answer the question, SebastianH? Why continue dancing around like this, pretending it is beneath you to answer the question as to how much warming you believe we'll get when CO2 doubles? I'm just going to continue asking until you answer.
What is the specific amount of warming an atmospheric scientist must believe in to avoid having people like you call them "climate deniers"? What's the denier/non-denier cutoff temperature value? Is 3 K the bare minimum to be accepted as a non-denier? Or is even 3 K "denier" too?
It's a simple answer that you keep on running away from. How much warming do you believe we'll get when CO2 reaches 560 ppm?
I see. So now that Mears has bowed to pressure and changed the temperature data to your liking within the last few weeks, you don't have to answer the question as to why it is that both RSS (the previous version) and UAH showed 0.5 C less warming in 2015 than GISS. No, SebastianH, the lines don't match.
Why do you believe that CO2 controls the climate such that a 2% perturbation (560 ppm CO2) in a single variable out of the many contributing variables is the determinant of the planet's temperatures?
Why do you believe it is not? Because it sounds so tiny? 2%? ppm? single variable? Is there anything wrong with that chart? Do you have 1000 papers saying it's not true? What is your own opinion? Do you believe they got ignored for the report because it is all a great conspiracy?
even your own theorists conclude that doubling CO2 from 280 ppm to 560 ppm can, at most, cause a temperature change of 1.16 K?
It's in the range between 1.5°C to 4.5°C (high confidence) and very unlikely below 1°C or greater than 6°C.
how much warming you believe we'll get when CO2 doubles?
I don't believe, that's what most skeptics seem to do … isn't it mostly a gut-feeling that 2% of one variable can not possibly change anything?
I'd go with what scientists say the range will most likely be (queue in you telling me that the IPCC report actually uses the word "belief").
The classic "all adjustments are false" defense? Have you even read and understood the adjustments?
UAH showed 0.5 C less warming in 2015 than GISS. No, SebastianH, the lines don't match.
So Lindzen is a "denier" because he writes that CO2 is not a pollutant? We have to accept that CO2 is a pollutant, and if we don't, we're "deniers"?
The scribbled "rebuttals" in that piece indicate that emissions regulations reduce wildfires, droughts, and floods. Do you believe this has been scientifically established, and thus people who disagree are deniers of this "truth"? (Wildfires, droughts, and floods are all less common today compared to past centuries).
So instead of actually answering the question, you have again retreated to just repeating the IPCC range (that hasn't narrowed in 30 years). The question was, What is the minimum temperature change from CO2 doubling one must believe in to avoid having people like you call them "deniers"? How far away is Dr. Lindzen from the non-denier camp with his conclusion that ECS is 0.7 K because increasing water/cloud is a negative feedback?
Speaking of, since you're a believer that CO2 can only cause a temperature change of 1.16°C when doubled to 560 ppm, and it's positive feedbacks with water vapor and cloud that cause temperatures to rise the rest of the way (up to 6°C), what percentage of the 0.78°C temperature increase since 1850 has been caused by water vapor and cloud positive feedbacks? Or do you believe the contribution from water vapor and cloud has been 0°C up to this point, and that it's only at some point in the future that water vapor and cloud positive feedbacks will "kick in"? How does that work, exactly? Water vapor and cloud will increase temperatures by 3°C or 4°C or 5°C, but up to this point they haven't contributed anything? Why haven't they?
I never wrote that "all adjustments are false". You just fabricated another statement. Do you feel accomplished when you "slay" arguments that you made up yourself?
Have you realized your mistake with the different baselines or are you just ignoring this?
What is the minimum temperature change from CO2 doubling one must believe in to avoid having people like you call them "deniers"?
A nonsense question and you seem to ignore my reply to this one as well.
what percentage of the 0.78°C temperature increase since 1850 has been caused by water vapor and cloud positive feedbacks? Or do you believe the contribution from water vapor and cloud has been 0°C up to this point, and that it's only at some point in the future that water vapor and cloud positive feedbacks will "kick in"? How does that work, exactly?
I suggest you learn something about the mechanisms involved. Even if you don't agree with those ranges, you should at least know how scientists arrive at those numbers. Hint: if we continue to increase the CO2 concentration to 560 ppm and keep it stable at that level, the resulting full temperature increase caused by the forcing will happen decades later.
I never wrote that "all adjustments are false". You just fabricated another statement.
I didn't write that you wrote "all adjustments are false", did I?
It's only a "nonsense" question because you don't want to answer it. I have asked you this same question 5 times in this comment section alone and you continue to avoid answering it.
Is believing that climate sensitivity to doubled CO2 is 1.5°C "denier"? Or is that the bottom threshold to be counted among the believers? How much warming from doubled CO2 must one believe in to avoid being called names by people like you?
I asked you a specific question (that you failed to answer for the umpteenth time): What percentage of the 0.78°C temperature increase since 1850 has been caused by water vapor and cloud positive feedbacks? Do you have an answer? Does the IPCC? If so, enlighten us. Why do you continue to runaway from questions like this? Can you at least acknowledge that you don't know the answer? Or would that require too much humility?
SebastianH, you wrote that I used "The classic 'all adjustments are false' defense". And now you're claiming you never wrote that. That is classic you.
Yes, and it has been stupid nonsense (sorry) the first time. That not a criteria to be called "denier", as I now have written as a reply 100 times.
I find it quite amusing that you insist on me giving you an answer to such a question and even count your repetitions. I wish I had counted the many times I asked you to learn about the mechanisms involved in order to understand what you are calling impossible or extremely unlikely. You don't have to agree with "us", but don't you want to know what you are arguing against?
I see, so writing it like this in English means that I am implying you actually said "all adjustments are false"? Weird language. Or are you misinterpreting this on purpose (again)?
P.S.: I don't know exactly how much of the warming was caused by feedbacks, those are ranges too. The current temperature anomaly is not a direct result of the current CO2 concentration. So if we have a range of 1.5°C to 4.5°C (and 1.16°C for the direct CO2 effect) for a concentration of 560 ppm you'd have to reverse the mechanism to find out at what percentage of the road to 560 ppm we are now at (hint: the scale is not linear) and you'll get the range for today's anomaly. That would be a wonderful exercise for you to do when you learned how the mechanisms work (or are supposed to work, since you don't want to accept them working this way).
You wrote that Dr. Lindzen is a "denier" because he "argues against known physics and mechanisms". But he thoroughly agrees with the greenhouse effect, that CO2 causes warming, that increasing our emissions increases the planet's temperature to rise and CO2 concentrations to rise. So he agrees with you. And yet you still called him a "denier" anyway. What are the physics and mechanisms he denies, SebastianH? He doesn't agree with you that the climate's sensitivity to CO2 doubling will result in catastrophic warming. What other "truth" does he deny that is "known physics and mechanisms"?
And again, the "physics and mechanisms" you refer to here are rooted in modeling. As you know, there is no scientific evidence that supports your beliefs that raising or lowering CO2 concentrations over a body of water causes cooling or warming in that body of water. It's hypothetical based on suppositions. That's what your paradigm is based on.
Great! So identify those ranges. Of the 0.78 K, what are the ranges for the contribution from increasing cloud cover — which you apparently believe causes a net warming despite all the evidence to the contrary? Do you have cloud data from before the satellite era to affirm these value ranges? How about water vapor positive feedback? What were the water vapor level contributions from the 1930s? Do you know, or are these just guesses on your part?
You are a DENIER of science , when you are totally unable to produce ONE SINGLE PIECE of empirical evidence for CO2 warming of oceans or convective atmosphere.
That would be YOU, seb-t.
Only person HIGH on nonsense is YOU, seb-t.
It seems to be all you are capable of.
The surface data is a monumental MESS.
– Multiple raw data adjustments with questionable explanations.
– Infilling wild guess data where data are missing (majority of grids).
– Absurd claimed of margins of errors.
– Improper surface thermometer siting.
– Massive tampering by AGENDA driven climate monkeys.
– Now RSS has become AGENDA-tainted as well.
But even after all that, in the satellite data, there is absolutely ZERO CO2 warming signature.
Between those events (1980, 1998-2001, 2015….
Not from 1979 they do since their warming rate is .12C per decade,while the surface temperatures varies around.16C per decade,depending on which data source you use.
But then when you go from 2001 to now it is around zero rate for Satellites while the surface temperature manage to find warming.
Meanwhile you seem to be ignoring the well known Urbanization bias,as many of the existing temperature stations are being affected by cities and their heat increasing capacity of the buildings,Roads,HAV units and so on.
Do you think UHI effect is unknown to those adjusting and quality checking the station data?
No, it's very well known. That's why they removed thousands of temperature stations in mostly rural areas after the 1970s – to eliminate the stations that had been showing cooling (non-urban), and to retain the stations that would continue to show artificial warming (urban).
Do you think it's a coincidence, SebastianH, that the removal of thousands of rural temperature stations from the network occurred at the very same time (post-1980) that land surface temperatures rose by 0.5 to 0.6 C more than sea surface temperatures did? Or do you think there is a connection?
your puerile little graph shows you up, yet again, as a mathematically inept monkey at best.
Seb, you have been told before that starting at the first full year of the 21st century is relevant,because it was AFTER La-Nina faded away and to show that despite the significant addition of CO2 into the atmosphere since 2001,there is precious little warming.
Virtually ALL of the warming has been from El-Nino events since the 1970's.
You have been told MANY TIMES now that the IPCC projected a .30C per decade warming rate,yet NONE of the data sets show this since 1979,1990,1997,2001 time frames.Heck it has been BELOW .20C per decade the entire time. The Satellite data has been below .13C per decade since 1979.
You have NOTHING against this Seb,and you know it.
SEb, your link doesn't even help you.
The RSS warming rate is still less than half the IPCC projected rate since 1979. Can you guess what it is,Seb child?
It is clear you are STILL IGNORING the IPCC per decade AGW based modeling guesses,that are so shown by Satellite data, to be very wrong. The Tropical "hotspot" is still not there after decades of waiting. It actually cooled slightly at one level,warmed warmed a little in the second layer and about zero in the third layer.
You call Dr. Lindzen names,but you can't face the STARK IPCC prediction failures.
Without data tampering, there would be NO warming.
All they have is lies, and all you are is an echo chamber for those lies, which are wonderfully exposed by Tony Heller. Here's another.
So, what's the deal SebH? Are you a victim of their abuse of science? Or are you a willing accomplice?
And thanks for, YET AGAIN, proving me correct, by using the El Ninos as your prime source of trends.
You also KNOW that El Ninos are SOLAR driven, nothing to do with CO2.
That makes you a deliberate, deceitful, AGW LIAR/SHILL !!
He doesn't want to face that obvious reality,which is why we get the run around from this silly man. He keeps avoiding answering a couple specific questions from Kenneth too,gee I wonder why……….
Meanwhile he has yet to show by evidence,of postulated CO2 effect on the temperature since 2001.
It is impressive how easily you get triggered and need to present your beliefs about manipulated data and El Nino as the master of temperature increase as a response.
Keep repeating your mantras, but don't act surprised if you get called what you are.
Yeah. Shame on us for "needing" to respond to your lies with facts. Whatever were we thinking?!
And getting called on telling the truth is just such a blow to our egos, too.
Getting pretty desperate there, chatbot sebH.
It looks as though SebastianH is threatening to call us names like "climate deniers" again. Name-calling has been a really effective response every time he's used it in the past.
We've been warned. Prepare to have SebastianH unleash his super-special debating tactic on us.
Why are you still DENYING science and facts seb-t.
You are a brain-washed parrot, desperately seeking attention, who's only reason for being here is as a baseless, anti-science, AGW troll.
And you calling any one out, on anything, is the equivalent of a chihuahua YAPPING behind a 6ft fence.
It is impressive that you keep ignoring that obvious reality since it warms ONLY when El-Nino's come along,otherwise flat to a cooling trend comes after it fades away.
When are you going to stop ignoring the failed PER DECADE projections from the IPCC reports?
How much longer are you going to ignore well documented temperature data tampering?
How much longer are you going to avoid Kenneth's well documented massive station drop outs?
How much longer are you going to ignore the Satellite data showing the failure of the Tropical Hot Spot and the less than 50% per decade warming as per the Satellite data rate of the IPCC projected rates?
You ignore most of the official evidence right off the bat,then the occasional time you make a sourced reply,it gets a detailed reply, you quickly drop it,to go to a corner of the room and curl up into a fetal ball.
Your whine about Dr. Lindzen,is a classic example of your low level behavior,who can't provide a credible counterpoint to what he wrote,instead of the name calling you several times foisted on Dr. Lindzen. He has since been joined by many scientists who also show low to near zero CO2 sensitivity effect. You are indeed a cad!
Many here long know that you are a glassy eyed,slack jawed warmist troll. You bring very little to the debate,ignore the many failed IPCC projections,ignore the obvious El-Nino effect on global temperature,ignore the hundreds of published science papers in recent years,that shoots holes in the absurd AGW conjecture.
Why not surprise us with honest rational replies instead?
FACTS, you really can't cope with FACTS can you seb-t.!


The drumbeat of cloud computing is getting ever louder with regular testimonials about the cost-savings and agility benefits it provides. Yet, large corporations have made only limited use of cloud computing. They have typically limited cloud services to peripheral, non-core functions, due to technical, legal, and security concerns. Today, many companies are discovering the growing number of offerings for a breed of private cloud services that deliver the benefits of public cloud computing, while providing more of the protections that large corporations seek. This growth in corporate-friendly offerings is being fueled by the goal of cloud service providers to expand their reach into the corporate market and by the desire of traditional outsourcing providers to protect their share of that market.
This definition covers a wide range of private cloud offerings, many of which can have very different consequences for the customer. Some private cloud offerings go a long way toward addressing the privacy, security and compliance issues that companies face, while others pose many of the same risks as public clouds. The fact that a service is a private cloud offering does not necessarily solve all these issues. Customers must carefully consider the attributes of each service and the corresponding contractual protections that it can obtain.
From a customer's perspective, a well-constructed private cloud contract will adhere to many of the customer protections found in traditional outsourcing contracts. It will also allow the service provider the flexibility needed to achieve the structural efficiencies inherent in cloud computing. The following is a brief review of some of the key terms that customers should obtain when contracting for private cloud services to support core functions.
Location Commitments. A key contractual term for private cloud services that support core functions is the customer's ability to specify the locations where data will reside. This requirement arises principally from the customer's need to comply with data privacy and security regulations enacted around the globe. This term is standard in outsourcing contracts but not in public cloud contracts, which enable the provider to change locations at will and without notice to or consent by the customer.
Architectural Control. In contrast to traditional outsourcing arrangements, the standardized nature of the service provider's private cloud environment means that the customer must accept some loss of architectural control. A customer can take steps to ensure that its systems are compatible with the cloud systems at the start, but this is not a complete protection, since the provider can make changes over time.
There are risks that the customer may incur uncertain costs to make modifications to its systems or that it could suffer disruption, neither of which is tenable when core functions are involved. If the customer cannot be protected against a disruptive change, the contract must at least include rights that give the customer the legal and practical ability to terminate the cloud services and a provide a reasonable time to transition its functions to an alternate provider before the change takes effect. One additional provision that can help the customer to avoid burden or disruption is a requirement that the provider must give the customer advance notice of its architectural plans and ensure opportunity to comment on those plans.
Technology Currency and Technology Advances. In traditional outsourcing contracts, customers often require providers to keep pace with current technology and to share their advances with the customer. Cloud service providers may resist this requirement on the grounds that they must maintain consistent architecture, which for technical or strategic reasons may not be current in every respect.
The need for this protection is less compelling in cloud services, however, because the cloud provider is already motivated by competitive pressures to keep its shared environment current. Nevertheless, customers that rely heavily on cloud services for core functions may want some general commitment in this regard, particularly given the potential time and effort required to shift a core function to another provider.
Data Security Commitments. Cloud contracts generally do not permit customers to impose their unique security requirements on the provider. This is not significantly different from traditional outsourcing arrangements, in which providers press to use their own security protocols when delivering services from their environments (e.g., a provider's data center or call centre).
The difference comes in how the potential gap is bridged. In public cloud offerings, the customer is usually obliged to satisfy itself that security protections disclosed by the provider are adequate. In private cloud arrangements, as in traditional outsourcing, the customer should have the right to require the provider to confirm that its security protections equal or exceed the customer's standards and that it will not diminish those protections. This difference is important, since the provider is clearly better positioned than is the customer to interpret the security-related capabilities of its own systems and procedures.
Termination Charges and Residual Costs. Given the standardized nature of the cloud infrastructure and the deployment of that infrastructure to support multiple customers, contracts for private cloud services should not require the customer to pay termination charges for stranded systems costs. There may be termination costs in some cases, particularly if the customer has required the provider to assist with transition of the customer's systems to the cloud environment (i.e., data conversion, transfer and testing) without full, up-front compensation for those services. Flexibility is one of the inherent benefits of cloud computing, however, so any provider request for termination charges should be carefully scrutinized.
Post-Termination Rights to Technology. One of the protections that customers often obtain in traditional outsourcing agreements is the right to acquire equipment and software used by the provider to support the customer. This protection is not available in private cloud arrangements for the obvious reason that the supplier cannot hand over part of its cloud infrastructure. As a result, it is important that customers of private cloud services include contract protections, similar in terms to traditional outsourcing contracts, that ensure the customer will have the time and information necessary to in-source or re-source the services when necessary, regardless of the reason for termination.
Post-Termination Rights to Personnel. In traditional outsourcing contracts, the customer often has the right to hire provider personnel who are substantially dedicated to the customer's account. This helps ensure transfer of knowledge relevant to the supported function.
Because private cloud services, by definition, do not rely on personnel dedicated to the customer, this protection is not available to customers of those services. The absence of this protection further underscores the importance to customers of exit planning and associated contract rights.
Limitations on Key Personnel. Contractual assurances relating to the quality and continuity of key provider personnel are mainstays of traditional outsourcing contracts. The success of an outsourcing relationship depends heavily on effective governance of the relationship. While private cloud services rely less on individual management, the reality is that even in those arrangements, there is need for effective governance to answer questions, advise on strategy and resolve problems.
Building customer confidence in using private clouds to support critical functions will, no doubt, require a strong connection to the provider organization. Consequently, many of the same key personnel protections found in traditional outsourcing contracts should apply, as well, to private cloud arrangements.
Audit Rights. Customers in traditional outsourcing arrangements typically have broad audit rights, while customers in public cloud arrangements have few, if any. Audit rights in private cloud contracts generally fall somewhere in between.
Since private cloud services utilize leveraged systems, private cloud providers want to limit a customer's operational audit rights to protect the security and the integrity of those systems. This may limit the extent of a customer's right to directly access the provider's systems and may well prevent the customer from being able to test the integrity of those systems. Nevertheless, private cloud customers should have the right to obtain all the information and data they need to satisfy their control requirements. In addition, customers should require SSAE 16 or equivalent audit reports for the provider's systems and processes used to support the customer.
Change in Volumes. Pricing structures under traditional outsourcing contracts often contain volume ranges beyond which unit pricing must be renegotiated. This constraint is based on the changing proportion of the provider's fixed and variable costs that comes with volume changes.
An essential characteristic of cloud computing is price elasticity, which results from broad leveraging of the cloud systems across multiple customers. Volume pricing discounts may still be used by cloud providers wishing to encourage broader use of their systems.
Another factor that may influence variable pricing, at least for some initial period, is cost recovery. This becomes especially relevant when a provider incurs up-front costs in assisting the customer to initially transition to a cloud environment.
Many of the benefits of private cloud services come from the provider's standardization of its services across multiple customers, including standardization of its architecture, currency, security controls and quality measures. Standardization in this context requires certain customer compromises and risks that must be carefully managed, particularly when the private cloud is used to support core customer functions.
The transition of large corporations to widespread use of cloud services for core functions is likely to be slow and evolutionary because of these risks and compromises. However, the persistent cost pressures and agility demands on companies and their need to remain competitive, together with competitive pressures among service providers, make this evolution inevitable.
Lawyers representing these companies must find contract solutions that balance customer needs against the essential features of cloud computing. They must also aim to develop outsourcing contracts that not only keep pace with changing customer issues, but that also advance the evolution of the cloud computing industry.

WR Hakeem Nicks - 10/19
Q: Feeling better?*
A: It's feeling better. I feel like practicing on it is the start to breaking it back in and getting better. I took that approach this week and got the green light to do it; it's definitely been getting better.Q: Foot or the knee? *
A: Both. Q: Is this the best you've felt this season?
A: No. I feel like at this point in the season nobody feels great. The best you feel is before you start training camp. I feel pretty good now; I'm getting all the way back to full, 100%. That's my goal every day, just to be better than I was the day before. Q: Do you feel better than you did last week against the 49ers?
A: Yeah, I feel a lot better than then. I was still a little cautious in that game about it. I really just had one practice then got in the game. I had three weeks off. I wasn't really expecting too much out of that game. I just wanted to go out there and get back. This week I had a full week of practice so I expect it to be better. Next week will be better. I just want to keep getting better. Q: What do you gain from a full week of practice?
A: The repetition on the foot and the knee. Just getting my steps back down and getting the timing back down with Eli on certain routes. Just getting it done for the team. Q: How do you get up for a team that beat you twice last year?
A: Approach it as a new game and a new season. What's in the past is in the past. Keep striving forward. They got us last year, but this is a new year. We know we're a good team, we're playing good team ball right now, we just need to keep driving ahead. Q: iI it a motivation tool?
A: Definitely. Definitely. It's definitely something to use as motivation because they got us last year and they're in our division. We're using that as our motivation, that's a good thing. Q: Did you need to be out there last Sunday to get game reps?
A: Yeah, I felt like that was good for me. I thought it was good for the team as well to take some coverage away from other guys and make them play a little more honest. Q: Is the goal in practice to not be cautious on it?
A: Yeah, no hesitation. It's just going out there and running and knowing I'm capable of going to my full capability. Q: What percentage of reps have you been taking?
A: As much as I would in a normal practice.

The site was divided into two zonings, with an office and commercial area in the front and pure residential in the back. The clear separation is generated by local regulations, but our task was to connect two areas as one and develop it as one coherent entity.
JINAN HILLS is a gate project, which acts as a buffer towards the residential area, serving both the residential as well as the public domain. Series of spatial networks were designed through site topographic level changes. The site gradually slopes up towards the hill. This hill stood behind our site, also functions as a public park for this area. JINAN HILLS is intended to be a gate way up to this public hill, and was designed to draw more business activities in this area. JINAN HILLS consists of the combination of two symbolic office towers and public space, and will provide room for more than 10,000 workers and will activate this newly developing area.

This is one of my favorite DC ammeters. It is small, fairly accurate and is ideal for monitoring loads less than 100A such as solar, wind, refrigeration or DC panel loads. The OLED screen is beautiful and will only add to your boats interior. Because it fits into a 1 1/8" round hole it can be installed almost anywhere. Time to get rid of that antiquated analog ammeter meter.
IMPORTANT: 100A rated shunt is not suitable not for large loads such as alternators, engine cranking, electric winches, bow thrusters, inverters or windlasses. Please install shunt for measuring panel loads only.


I consider myself an honest, cheerful, heart-warming and sensitive woman! In any situation I see positive sides… What I get from life - I give it to people! These are happiness, lightness and positive attitude! :) I trust people, rely on them and help them when it is needed! Friends call me a little bundle of happiness :) I have comfort and easiness in communication as well as happiness and love in life:) I am interested in sport and keep myself fit. Cooking is my passion and I adore to spend time preparing something really tasty for my nearest. I love nature and gardening. I like animals, especially cats and think that.


Ben une chose est sûre c'est que ce tueur là n'a vraiment pas envie de rire , il m'a l'air encore plus cinglé que l'autre et son plan semble encore plus au point.
Donc y semble être dans le coup ou alors c'est le hasard!?
Haley soeur ou cousine de Piper?
le soir où Rachel a été pendue dans la saison 1 Audrey était avec Piper donc qui a vraiment tué Rachel?
Kieran : J'avais vu juste!
c'est lui qui a assomé Piper en sortant des toilettes du hangar et qui a kidnappé Will , c'est aussi sûrement lui qui a tué Will par jalousie et son père.
Enfin le tueur était tout seul dans cette saison et il a fait un vrai massacre.
Who told you you could wear my mask?
Ils ont meme pas trouvé le tueur à ce que je lis?
The series is expected to premiere on MTV in March 2018.
Keke Palmer is going from Scream Queens to Scream as the socially-woke Kym. Once the killer shows up, it's clear that Kym doesn't just show her strength in the wake of social activism, but against anyone brave (or stupid) enough to go head-to-head with her.
RJ Cyler(who played Billy in Power Rangers) will star as Deion, his high school's star football player. When audiences are introduced to him, Deion is on en route to an athletic scholarship, only to have his aspirations thwarted by a secret which the killer somehow has his or her hands on.
Jessica Sula (Split) will be the series' new kid on the block who takes a liking to Deion, Liv. On the surface, she seems to have it all – a spot on the cheerleading squad, straight-A's – but all is not as it seems, especially given the fact that she may be hiding a few secrets of her own.
Giorgia Whigham (13 Reasons Why) will star as the local goth, Beth. In the tradition of Randy Meeks, Robbie Mercer, and Charlie Walker, Beth is a tattoo artist, a horror fiend, and an obvious usual suspect once her town begins to mirror the very movie genre with which she's so obsessed.
C.J. Wallace (who starred in Kicks, and whose father is the late Notorious B.I.G.) will star as Amir. Not unlike the actor's late-father, Amir is music-oriented, with ambitions much bigger than the town in which he's currently stuck. Unfortunately, his parents aren't too keen on him making music his ultimate goal.
Giullian Yao Gioiello (Julie's Greenroom) will star as the series' book-smart and openly gay Manny. While it's safe to say that his sexual orientation could easily tie in with Deion's mysterious "secret" (though that's a completely unsubstantiated educated guess), there aren't any more details regarding the goings-on of this character, aside from the fact that he, too, will have to face off against the local, unlicensed executioner.
Tyga (who starred in Barbershop: The Next Cut), whose character, Jamal, is Deion's step-brother. The only information regarding his character is that he and Deion are very close.
Qui est donc Mr James?
Surtout que si la saison 3 est un reboot je ne comprends pas bien où ils veulent en venir.

Artist brings blend of innovative Antarctic artworks to Plymouth
Composer and writer Paul D Miller is coming to Plymouth University to talk about a project which explores the planet's remotest continent
Mr Alan Williams
Media & Communications Officer
Communication Services (External Relations)
An internationally renowned composer, multimedia artist, and writer is coming to Plymouth University to talk about a project which uses innovative new ways to explore the planet's remotest continent.
Paul D Miller, aka DJ Spooky that Subliminal Kid, is based in New York and his works aim to immerse audiences in a blend of genres, global culture, and environmental and social issues.
Recently, he has completed a number of projects focussed on Antarctica and among them is Book of Ice, which will form the focus of his free public talk in Plymouth on Monday 01 June.
It forms part of a wider and ongoing multidisciplinary study, which draws on the continent's rich history of inspiring exploration and artistic endeavours, and which saw him named one of National Geographic's Emerging Explorers in 2014.
Paul D Miller said:
"Music and art can be vehicles for provoking thought, overcoming inertia, and helping people engage with issues that are exponentially reshaping our information-driven world."
During his career to date, Miller has collaborated with a vast array of recording artists, ranging from Metallica to Chuck D, and Steve Reich to Yoko Ono.
His large scale, multimedia performance pieces include Terra Nova: Sinfonia Antarctica, which was commissioned by the Brooklyn Academy of Music for the Next Wave Festival 2009, and Seoul Counterpoint, written during his residency at Seoul Institute of the Arts in South Korea in 2014.
His work has appeared in the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Kunsthalle in Vienna, The Andy Warhol Museum in Pittsburgh, the Miami/Art Basel fair, and many other museums and galleries, while he has also held residencies at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and the University of New South Wales in Australia.
Dr Anya Lewin, Associate Professor (Reader) in Art and Moving Image at Plymouth University, said:
"DJ Spooky is a leading global figure in his field, and it is a real coup to get him to come to Plymouth. The talk will be appropriate for anyone interested in music, art and climate change – as well as those with an interest in Antarctica – and it promises to be a fascinating evening for everyone who attends."
Paul D Miller's The Book of Ice talk will take place from 6-7pm on 01 June in the Roland Levinsky Building and admission is free. For more details, email Dr Anya Lewin.

Downsizing to assisted living can be a stressful process. It doesn't help that when it's time to search for senior housing, either for your loved one or for yourself, the options can be overwhelming. The good news is that the Internet has absolutely made this often-stressful project much, much easier. Typing "senior housing" followed by the city in which you'd like to conduct your search (for example: senior housing Scottsdale) in your search engine will reveal multiple websites which list senior housing options. Using the map option on these websites, or even in the search engine main page, can be very helpful when it comes to finding senior housing within a few miles of relatives or friends, or even doctors' offices and hospitals.
Many of these websites will also break down the types of housing into whatever is relevant to your search. For example, are you looking for housing simply for seniors age 60 and above? Or are you looking for independent senior living, or assisted living, or continuing care? There are also specific housing options for seniors coping with Alzheimer's. Once you've narrowed down your search parameters to the relevant types of housing, you can sometimes read reviews of these properties, left by seniors who reside at these properties, and their friends and family members. While these reviews, like any reviews, should be taken with a grain of salt and a bit of healthy skepticism, they can be helpful to weed out some properties that may obviously have too many issues with patient care, for example.
Some websites you may find helpful in your search include: http://www.seniorhousingnet.com/seniors/senior-living-us/arizona, https://www.after55.com/senior-housing/az/metro-phoenix/scottsdale, http://www.aplaceformom.com/independent-living/arizona, http://www.boomerater.com/senior-living/senior-housing-in-Scottsdale_Arizona, www.yelp.com.
Of course, we are also available to help you with your search for property in any senior living communities.
This beautiful March weather means there's no reason to stay indoors. If you need any more incentive, there are dozens of festivals scheduled for the month of March here in the Valley. For example, on March 25, the 13th Annual Salsa Festival runs from 2 pm to 8 pm at Copper Sky Regional Park in Maricopa. This festival features salsa chefs in a cooking competition as well as entertainment, food and drinks, plus a kids' zone with games and activities. Salsa enthusiasts can sample the various salsas and vote up until 6:30 pm.
If Italian cuisine is more your speed, check out the Annual Italian Festival on March 25-26 from 11 am to 9 pm Saturday, and 11 am to 5 pm Sunday at the Scottsdale Civic Center. This festival features a wide variety of activities from live music and Italian cuisine to Italian art and artists, and hand-crafted Italian items. Admission tickets also available pre-sale online. Another fun event occurring that same weekend is the 14th Annual Arizona Dragon Boat Festival at 8 am on Saturday and Sunday at Tempe Town Lake Marina, North Shore. This festival features a race with teams from all over the world, racing their decorated boats across the lake. Live entertainment will also be on hand.
On March 31-April 2, the Tempe Festival of the Arts will occur on Mill Avenue in Tempe, from 10 am to 5:30 pm. This free event features 350 artist booths representing 17 different categories of art, from photography and ceramics to wood, wearable arts and jewelry. Live performers and street entertainers, vendors and a kids' area will round out the fun.
Finally, from Feb 11 to April 2, the Arizona Renaissance Festival in Gold Canyon, 12601 E. US Highway 60, is an all-day event that's fun for every age. This festival is one of the largest in the United States and features shows, jousting, food, drinks, and vendors.

Simply put, FHA loans are mortgage loans that are part of a government loan program run by the Federal Housing Administration, a department underneath the umbrella HUD (the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development). The FHA has been regulating and insuring mortgage loans since 1934. While it was originally conceived as a program to assist low-income Americans with buying homes during the Great Depression, today the FHA is the single largest insurer of residential mortgage loans.
Some facts about FHA loans that may interest you include the fact that an FHA home loan is easier to qualify for than conventional loans. This is because lenders know the government is standing behind the FHA home loan. First-time and younger homebuyers are some of the biggest beneficiaries of FHA loans given the maximum loan limit imposed by the HUD/FHA program. This limit does vary by state. In Arizona, and Maricopa County specifically, the maximum FHA loan amount is currently $279,450 for 2017. The FHA loan permits homebuyers to obtain a mortgage up to this amount with only a 3.5 percent down payment of the purchase price (compared to the standard 5 percent with a conventional loan).
Other beneficiaries of FHA loans are those with lower credit scores. Potential homeowners with credit scores ranging from 580 to 600 may be eligible for FHA loans. The FHA guidelines are also much more lenient with potential homeowners as the FHA permits monetary gifts from family members as well as local down-payment assistance programs and state grants. Moreover, FHA loans permit non-traditional credit references such as insurance, utility or rent payments if you haven't yet established solid credit.
Also, FHA home loans have lower interest rates. The rate you pay for an FHA home loan will be negotiated with an FHA-approved lender since the FHA doesn't actually provide the financing. Also, the FHA can help you make home upgrades and repairs if you have a fixer upper. For example, the Energy Efficient Mortgage (EEM) program can help you lower your utility bills by financing the cost of adding improvements that will increase the energy efficiency of your home. An FHA 203(k) insured loan can be used to purchase a home that needs repairs and improvements, and will provide up to $25,000 on top of the purchase price for these alterations, all within one single loan.
Finally, FHA loans have lower closing costs. However, not every FHA-insured loan package will be the same. Lenders will determine the terms and the rate offered, so be sure to shop around and compare loan offers. We'd be happy to point you in the right direction if this is something you'd like to consider when purchasing your next home.

Writing is hard. #100days
Thank Guestbook
Aristotle's concept of god is fascinating. I mean, the man can be faulted for accepting slavery, or more generally just confirming the ethical notions of the time he lived in (shouldn't a philosopher be critical of the status quo?), but the way he describes god is really interesting, if you ask me.
So basically, what he calls god is actually more of a principle of rationality. So it's not a person, or even something that takes the shape of a person. It's not a religious god at all, just a philosophical one. And this principle is the force that causes all movement in the universe. Because you see, everything moves because it has a goal. So the goal of a lion, for example, is to survive and procreate. Rocks fall, because the goal of a rock is to be close to its origin, which is earth. Humans are special; they have rationality, so their goal is to become like the gods themselves. But anyways, the point is that everything moves in a goal-oriented way. And every movement, as we all know from physics class, is caused by some kind of force. Think of billiard balls on a table, and how one ball can make another move. But this leaves us with a question: what caused all this movement? It cannot be something that was itself moved by something else, because then we would just move the problem further back. So, Aristotle says, there has to be an unmoved mover. Something that is the first cause of all movement. Something that is itself unmoved and unchanging, because it is pure form, perfection, rationality, and doesn't have a material shape. And this unmoved mover causes everything to move, like a girl motivates a boy in love to take action (granted, that's not the metaphor he gave, and it's also not very realistic, since all I ever did when I had a crush was stare wordlessly and cry in my room).
The annoying thing about Aristotle's god is, and you probably noticed, how hard it is to put into words. I really think it's quite genius, yet every time I try to explain it, I fall short. I'm quite sure that the above paragraph does not adequately convey what I find so mesmerizing about it. So maybe I haven't understood it well enough yet (the exam is in two days, I still have time!). But there's also something poetic about it. After all, the god I'm trying to describe isn't meant to be understood. In fact, it's absolutely impossible for any human to fully comprehend it, for to understand it would mean to be god. (This is another thing... Aristotle's god is basically a thinking that thinks about itself, and is fully transparent to itself, and since it is the prime principle principle of the universe, the universe is also fully transparent to it.) So maybe it's good that I don't quite understand it, because otherwise I would've ceased to have any material form and turned into an ethereal, abstract principle of rationality (which, to be fair, people sometimes call me anyways).
Anyways, it's late (not really that late, but I'm tired (and I'm using way too many parentheses)), and I'm going to sleep. Nighty!

This is one of these writing days where I have no idea what to write about. On some days, like yesterday, I enter with an idea in mind, and usually I manage to expand on it enough for a whole post. But on other days, like today, I just go in blank. Writing as therapy. I think that this is what the challenge is supposed to be. Also, I suspect that the challenge is supposed to be way less "thinky" and more creative, like with fiction and stuff, once upon a time, that kind of stuff, but that's just...

In my law practice, I encourage family involvement in the healing and coping process. I also believe it essential for the injured person to see qualified medical specialists. Within the medical community, many healthcare professionals lack the training or experience necessary to understand these complex injuries. I've seen many cases where doctors initially ignored significant symptoms of mild traumatic brain injury.
Falls (the CDC says falls account for 40% of the injuries resulting in visits to an emergency room, hospitalization or death).
Unintentional blunt trauma — being hit accidentally by an object (the CDC says this category accounts for 15% of TBI cases).
Motor Vehicle Accidents (the CDC says this category accounts for 14% of TBI cases).
Although I've seen variations of these percentages in different research, I don't take any issue with falls, blunt trauma and motor vehicle accidents being three leading causes of TBI. In my practice, I frequently see TBI claims resulting from these sources. Many of these TBI cases involve workers hurt by falls or blunt trauma on construction or industrial sites.
Alabama is fortunate to have excellent brain injury specialists and researchers at UAB. Another good source of information is the Alabama Head Injury Foundation. By focusing on safety, the number of brain injury cases can be significantly reduced. By focusing on treatment, the individuals coping with a brain injury can obtain the care needed for rehabilitation.


The early gold mining tunnels in the Coromandel were supported by strong New Zealand native timber, usually kauri, around the entrances, and where the tunnels linked, by the Cornish tin miners. Kauri trees grow up to 50 meters in height and up to 16 meters across the trunk. The wood is really solid and lasts for over a century. Both the early settlers and the Maoris used kauri for boats and building houses. The kauri gum looks like weathered quartz when it's dry, but of course it weighs far less than any rock. The kauri gum was used for varnish, and as the first chewing gum in New Zealand.
If you're wondering how people accessed the kauri logs with Victorian technology, it wasn't by helicopter. The logs were felled and then transported down the river to the township. Big kauri dams were constructed so as to release a flood of water to carry the logs. In the 1830s Canadian lumberjacks brought the driving dam technology to New Zealand. It was a complex task taking several months, and no two dams are identical. Long logs were wedged into rock or trenches cut into the river banks. Vertical 'rafters' then served as the framework for the planks that formed the main wall of the dam. A gate was constructed at the mouth of the dam, and the logs would pile up behind the gate until there were sufficient to open the dam and let them flow down the river. At one time there were up to 3000 driving dams in New Zealand.
Eventually the dams decayed and only some relics remain to remind us of this powerful technology. The kauri trees live for 2000 years, and used to cover more than a million hectares of New Zealand.
Just out of Thames is conservation land at the end of the Kauaeranga Valley. On the way to the Pinnacles you can find the old Dancing Camp kauri dam. This was built in 1924 and was one of about fifty dams built in the Kauaeranga Valley after the First World War. The site of the Pinnacles hut used to be the huts and cookhouse of the Dancing Camp in the 1920s. Bert Collins held the contract for kauri milling in the area, which ceased finally in 1928. The dam survived intact over many years, but was deteriorating. In the middle of the 1990s, archaeologist Neville Ritchie led an authentic restoration of the dam using kauri logs that had been washed out by flooding. The dam is now one of the main features of the Kauaeranga River Trail, one of New Zealand's best historic hikes.
Come to Thames to explore the kauri dam on the way to the Pinnacles.

Condolences for bereaved families
Local politicians have expressed their shock and sadness at the fatal shooting of two men at a farmhouse near Glenarm.
Sinn Féin MLA for east Antrim Oliver McMullan, who knew both of the deceased – Arthur Gibson and Michael Murphy – said the pair had been "very close" and described the deaths as a double tragedy.
Mr McMullan said: "This is a tragedy not only for the families but also for the community. People are in a state of shock as both men were well known within this tight knit community.
"This has obviously been a traumatic time for both families and they have also had to endure being the focus of media attention since this tragic incident."
East Antim Ulster Unionist MLA Roy Beggs said: "In the aftermath of such a shocking incident we all should keep in our thoughts and prayers the family of the deceased at this very difficult time."
Meanwhile, MP for East Antrim Sammy Wilson said: "The thoughts of the community will be with those who have been so tragically bereaved. In a close knit community such as Glenarm, the impact of this will be felt by everyone."

On the 4th November 2012, the brave souls of the Primary Club of Australia faced up again against the Blind Cricket New South Wales at the grounds at Shore, Northbridge.
The important message of the day is not who won or lost but how the game was played. (The Primary Club lost again).
Unfortunately the original plan of scoring using a iPad didn't work so Graham from the Blind Cricket NSW kept score and kept it brilliantly. It was a close game.
Alas even after 30 overs a side .. the game came down the final ball, as long as the Primary Club ran 15 runs on it. They fell 12 runs short.
Below are photos from the day.


What is the N.A.P.P project ?
A plan of the Centre of the Puppet of the Federation Walloon area of Belgium - Brussels, of Lutkovno Gledalisce Ljubljana, of the Festival Mondial des Théâtres de Marionnettes de Charleville-Mézières, of the Theatre Gérard-Philipe and of the Teatrul Tony Bulandra. Cofinancé by the programme Creative Europe of the European Union.
From childish melodies to bewitching litanies, surrounded by an orchestra of about fifteen little skeletons musicians struggling on their instruments, a woman - Antinéa - reveals herself. A creation at the confluence of various artistic fields: theatre, music, puppetry and digital arts. It is a sound and visual proposal around Antinea and an orchestra of 17 computer-controlled automaton-musician-skeletons.
