shepie you recommended the cowardly anonymous lying asshole troll ratie's post of info from the guardian idiot John Abraham. No surprise. moron's of a feather are like minded. so shepie's expert is on experts is John Abraham. How mentally challenged is John Abraham. He surely can bambozzle cowardly anonymous lying asshole troll ratie and shepie. This is the argument of John Abraham. You will see many stories in the press, but try finding the actual letter or the list of names. I guess google with a few keywords is beyond John Abraham intelligence and ratie's too. and shepie too. My previous message Message 31003899 posted the link to the pdf of the original letter. cloudup.com repeated here as you are likely as stupid as the author or the article and finding truth for your is in some other universe. How stupid is anonymous lying asshole troll ratie's article author if he is arguing some difficulty in finding he original letter online. And of course no mention of the author of the letter. You are reaching to a new low or a new high as dispicable or asshole. for the last you insert ratie or shepie. I know Professor Lindzen and all know how stupid anonymous lying asshole troll ratie IS. and shepie too. www-eaps.mit.edu Professor Lindzen is a dynamical meteorologist with interests in the broad topics of climate, planetary waves, monsoon meteorology, planetary atmospheres, and hydrodynamic instability. His research involves studies of the role of the tropics in mid-latitude weather and global heat transport, the moisture budget and its role in global change, the origins of ice ages, seasonal effects in atmospheric transport, stratospheric waves, and the observational determination of climate sensitivity. He has made major contributions to the development of the current theory for the Hadley Circulation, which dominates the atmospheric transport of heat and momentum from the tropics to higher latitudes, and has advanced the understanding of the role of small scale gravity waves in producing the reversal of global temperature gradients at the mesopause, and provided accepted explanations for atmospheric tides and the quasi-biennial oscillation of the tropical stratosphere. He pioneered the study of how ozone photochemistry, radiative transfer and dynamics interact with each other. He is currently studying what determines the pole to equator temperature difference, the nonlinear equilibration of baroclinic instability and the contribution of such instabilities to global heat transport. He has also been developing a new approach to air-sea interaction in the tropics, and is actively involved in parameterizing the role of cumulus convection in heating and drying the atmosphere and in generating upper level cirrus clouds. He has developed models for the Earth's climate with specific concern for the stability of the ice caps, the sensitivity to increases in CO2, the origin of the 100,000 year cycle in glaciation, and the maintenance of regional variations in climate. Prof. Lindzen is a recipient of the AMS's Meisinger, and Charney Awards, the AGU's Macelwane Medal, and the Leo Huss Walin Prize. He is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, and the Norwegian Academy of Sciences and Letters, and a fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Sciences, the American Geophysical Union and the American Meteorological Society. He is a corresponding member of the NAS Committee on Human Rights, and has been a member of the NRC Board on Atmospheric Sciences and Climate and the Council of the AMS. He has also been a consultant to the Global Modeling and Simulation Group at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, and a Distinguished Visiting Scientist at California Institute of Technology's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

Ruger CEO: People Are Buying Guns Because Police are Backing Off Posted at 12:02 pm on February 27, 2017 by Jenn Jacques Sturm Ruger CEO Michael Fifer shared his take on why more people are buying guns today. “It appears to me, if you look over multiple years, that there’s wider acceptance of guns, wider availability,” said Fifer. “There’s more exciting, new products from all the competitors, not just Ruger. There’s more reasons to have guns now than ever before.” Fifer’s full response to Bill Ledley on whether Sturm Ruger thought the industry had entered a permanently lower level of demand given the Republican sweep of the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives gave additional insight: “I think we’ve kind of seen the story before where you’ll get a big politically-driven spike: they tend to be fairly short and they’re followed by an offsetting decline in demand for a while, and then everything’s returned to what I would call normal. You’ve got the same factors driving interest. You’ve got more concealed carry in more states. You’ve got more new shooters coming along. You’ve got – generally, it’s more socially acceptable to admit to your friends that you actually like guns and enjoy having them, and by the way, come look at the newest one I just bought, let me show it to you. All that stuff drives demand. And in some municipalities, you have the cops backing off. They’re being seen by the media too often as the enemy. And so, they’re backing off, and crime rates in those cities are soaring to the roof. Those people could care less who’s President. They want to defend themselves. So, all of those drivers come back, so every time you have a really tiny spike or some political reason, it’s usually offset. I think we could be observing that now. And then it returns to normal. And I don’t think any of the other reasons have changed, so I doubt that the new normal will be materially lower than where we were going before. It appears to me, if you look over multiple years, that there’s wider acceptance of guns, wider availability. There’s more exciting, new products from all the competitors, not just Ruger. There’s more reasons to have guns now than ever before. And so, I’m not going to read too much into the current situation.” He’s right. The Ferguson Effect can still be felt throughout the country and with a greater acceptance of firearms, the more people will continue to arm themselves for their protection. Hopefully we’ll be able to multiply that by the national gun laws coming down the pike, but it’s just like they say, “an armed society is a polite society”. The more liberals discourage police from doing their job, the more citizens will arm themselves.

A Carjacker Thinks His Victim is Giving in…Until She Hands Over Her Purse [ In this case, a woman defended herself without even firing her weapon. ] Posted at 9:26 am on February 28, 2017 by Beth Baumann Last Monday at 7:30 a.m., a woman in Boise, ID fended off a would-be carjacker with her Ruger LCP. The woman had just dropped off her daughter at school when a man jumped in front of her car. When she stopped to keep from hitting him, he jumped into the car. The woman gave her account of the incident to KBOI: http://kboi2.com/news/local/boise-woman-scares-off-would-be-carjacker-with-her-pistol http://kboi2.com/news/local/carjacking-suspect-on-the-run-after-punching-driver He came to the driver’s side door of my car and opened it and demanded my keys and my purse and when I refused to give it to him he started hitting me in the head multiple times. He got my face once, and my forehead once, and when that didn’t work he grabbed my hair and began pulling me out of my car and I finally said ‘OK, OK, that’s enough stop! I’ll give you my purse. When I turned to give him my purse, I reached in my center console and I grabbed my gun and I pointed it at him, and it scared him off The woman says she doesn’t know what would have happened if she didn’t have her firearm with her. He probably would’ve dragged me out of my car and kept beating me… I honestly don’t know if he would have stopped. Once the suspect fled the scene, he ran down an alley behind an Albertson’s grocery store. The suspect remains at large. He is six feet tall, light skinned, clean shaven with a skinny face and wearing dark clothing. Anyone with a lead is asked to call (208) 343-COPS.
