Called into question. Not the same thing. It may yet be proven wrong. More data would be good. More analysis as well.That was debunked recently in a paper, wasn't it?
BTW the paper you quote above confirms the temp record. At the pole measured.
But the missing warming is in the equatorial troposphere.
Nice try though.
I keep wondering if your misreading of papers etc. is intentional, due to bias, or your understanding of what is being said is deficient.
The easiest person to fool is yourself. To do science well you have to be your own harshest critic. Doubt is essential. Error endemic. Absolute honesty an essential requirement.
BTW I'm sure you won't like it but ability in school (on average) pretty much follows IQ. Which is not to say that IQ is a good measure for an individual (although it is pretty good most of the time). My personal observation is that extra effort can add 15 IQ points. One SD. Of course laxity (disinterest) can subtract as well.
A pretty good paper on the subject:

You might like to read it. And weep. Because it says that some countries are going to need a lot of help. Probably more than is available.
Criminality race based?

I can't find the study off hand but one I read a while back said there was a cut off in IQ below which a person was not smart enough to commit a crime. Then there was a peak and a decline so that smarter people were less likely to commit a criminal offense.
Getting civilized helps:

And the biggest civilizing influence? An older male in the household. (IMO)
So what we are doing with our drug war is taking the civilizing influences out of the black community. Stupidest thing I can imagine. Ah. Well.
