Climate and Weather

More like a sexist organization - you had to be female to be accepted. As far as "racist" - the annual debutante banquets were a mix of all races available in San Diego - Filipino, Anglo-European, African-American, Japanese, Hawaiian etc. I am mixed European (English, French-Irish, German), and my wife is a mix of Filipina, Chinese, and European. The other girls, as far as we know, range from "pure" Filipina to barely detectable.

The sorority was started in the 70's by a Filipina woman in Chula Vista, a businesswoman and local politician, who was told by her daughter's high school counselor that the girl should go into nursing or learn a trade because with her last name she was not going to get into a decent college. She founded the group to give her daughter and her friends of similar background pride in their culture. Almost all the girls in my daughter's debutante group have completed "decent" colleges by now, except for the ones in medical and law schools. The outstanding member of the sorority is the daughter of a career Navy Master-Chief Steward who joined the Navy herself - as a doctor - and ended her career as head of the White House medical staff.

It appears she got sick of having her errors shoved back in her face, so she will publish without having to mess with all that messy peer review hassle on the internet. I am sure she will continue to get plenty of support from aff-bear and ilk there.

Sheʻll get about 3% support as always. The 97% need not worry. LOL!!

Beautiful day at the Erewohn Station on the South Island of NZ. We took a tour of the only sheep and cattle station that still uses Clydesdales as actual work horses. Six Clydesdales pulled a Wagon filled with 15 of my ohana seated in old high back theater seats. The view of the mighty Rangitata River fed by the snow covered Southern Alps is Beautiful in the Summer. It was frosty this mornʻ. -2 C over night. Think Iʻll send an invite to Judith. The Budweiser horses wouldnʻt survive 5 minutes work here at Erewohn. After lunch we hiked up Mt. Sunday. Home of the Rohan Village in the Two Towers. An amazing cool sunny day. Mahalo ke akua for safe travels and an amazing day.

If granted emeritus status, as she has applied for, Dr. Curry will typically get to keep her laboratory space. She will, however, be freed from the teaching and service obligations of active ladder rank faculty. She is therefore free to devote herself to her research as much as she wants unfettered by the mundane tethers of academic life. The retirement part basically allows, assuming GA Tech gets hiring approval and has the start up funds, her department to undertake a new hire. And yes, she could likely chair the search committee if she wanted. "Baseball has been very very good to me".

Hopefully the money supply will shrink to the AGW alarmist community during this administration.

As long as there are clicks I'm sure advertisers will keep placing their dollars on the web. But I assume you mean US research funding. My guess is that to the extent he can maintain a focus on anything, Trump will do his worst. But the reality is that the cutting edge of climate research has been gradually shifting to continental Europe and Asia for about a decade. One can see this, for example, in the author affiliations of the papers that get linked here. So Trump may exacerbate an ongoing trend within the US, but the overall pace of the research in this field may not change substantially.
