IF YOU APPRECIATE FINE ARTS YOUR DATE IS THIS SATURDAY AT GREER, SOUTH CAROLINA
With his Second Art Exhibition in Upstate South Carolina, Jose Romero makes an invitation this Saturday, January 25, from 6-8 PM in Greer, a community leader in arts, with a beautiful downtown and plenty of restaurants and walking areas.
The CENTER OF THE ARTS (Greer Art Studios), located at 804 Trade Street, is hosting this event where you will be able to appreciate the expression of this young architect Pratt Institute graduate that enriched his art and design abilities in Rome, Italy as a participant of the European Special Program that the Brooklyn school has in Europe.
Abstract isn’t easy to understand. However, Jose will be available to explain the meaning of his creations if you talk to him. From every angle you will find different concepts within the main message on each piece of art.
“A fusion of experience throughout my life told through abstract works. They encompass people I have met in places I have been, and alter egos I recreated from the impressions these special folks or places made upon me,” says Jose. We believe he means that every oil painting on canvas reflects his soul guided and molded by God and brought about by the experience in every corner of life.
The invitation is open to everyone to meet with more than 30 exquisite creations by Jose Romero, who has exhibited in New York, Chicago, Japan and Greenville, SC, among other exhibition events in the United States and overseas as well.
Come and enjoy it!
Why Global Warming/Climate Change Is a Hoax
By David Roemer, Ph.D. (
http://www.newevangelization.info)
1) Carbon dioxide is a trace gas in the atmosphere. 1% of the atmosphere is Argon and there is 25 times more Argon than carbon dioxide. If the sun is shining, a field of corn will use up all the carbon dioxide in 5 minutes. The corn will stop growing unless wind blows new air into the field.
2) 97% of the carbon dioxide in the atmosphere comes from human and animal respiration, outgassing from oceans in tropical areas, the decay of ground bacteria, volcanoes, and forest fires. Only 3% comes from humans burning coal, oil, and natural gas.
3) We are in the fifth ice age because the north and south poles are covered with ice sheets. This ice age started 2.58 million years ago. For 260 million years before this, the Earth was warmer. The first ice age began 2.4 billion years ago.
4) In the current ice age, there have been six periods of warmth (called interglacials) and cold (called glacials). The latest cycle was the Medieval Warm Period followed by the Little Ice Age. Humans began burning a lot of fossil fuels at the end of the Little Ice Age. The Roman Warm Period occurred 2,000 years ago. The Younger Dryas was a return to glacial conditions about 12,000 years ago.
5) At night a desert is much colder than the tropics. In the tropics, 4% of the atmosphere is water vapor, but humidity is much less in a desert. Water vapor is called a “greenhouse gas” because it absorbs the infrared radiation.
6) An example of radiation having a warming effect because of its interaction with a gas occurs in the stratosphere, which is an atmospheric layer 12 miles above the Earth’s surface. Ultraviolet radiation and solar wind interact with gas molecules causing the molecules to break up. The molecular components separate with high kinetic energies. It is the kinetic energy of molecules that determines temperature. Temperature does not increase when a molecule absorbs infrared radiation.
7) Water vapor absorbs and emits infrared radiation. Some of the emitted radiation goes into outer space and some is re-absorbed by the Earth’s surface. However, if an excited water vapor molecule collides with another molecule, there can be a conversion to kinetic energy. The energy of an infrared photon is 60 times less than the energy of an ultraviolet photon, so the warming effect of absorbing infrared photons is much less than the warming effect produced by ultraviolet photons in the stratosphere. There are many possible reasons temperatures in the tropics are lower than in a desert at night. Soil moisture accounts for 0.001 % of all the water on Earth. When water evaporates from the soil, the soil cools and the air warms. Wind also is a factor. I don’t think scientists know how much of the warming in the tropics at night is due to water vapor’s absorption of infrared radiation.
8) Carbon dioxide also absorbs infrared radiation, as does methane. There is about 25 times more water vapor in the atmosphere at the Earth’s surface than carbon dioxide. There is 200 times more carbon dioxide than methane, but methane absorbs more wavelengths of infrared radiation than carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide only adsorbs 16% of the infrared wavelengths produced by the Earth. Methane adsorbs much more wavelengths.
9) The conversion to heat when “greenhouse gases” absorb infrared radiation is not a linear process. If all the infrared radiation is being adsorbed by these gases, there is no warming effect caused by increasing the amount of carbon dioxide.
10) Governments in the United States have spent about 40 billion dollars subsidizing solar and wind energy to produce electricity even though solar energy is four times as expensive as fossil fuels and wind energy is twice as expensive. In Germany, because of the investment in solar and wind energy, electricity costs three times what it costs in the U.S. India and China have increased their use of fossil fuels because of all the benefits derived from inexpensive electricity. In the United States, as a result of the $40 billion expenditure, 2% of electricity is now produced by solar and wind energy.
11) Conclusion: It is obvious that the 40 billion dollars spent was a waste of money and that citizens in the U.S. were tricked into allowing governments to do this.

Petition to add a stop @ 751 DeKalb Industrial Way – SIGN NOW!
Dear Friends & Colleagues @ Emory,
I am writing you for support to our latest petition to the Emory Transport Office requesting Emory Shuttle (North Dekalb) to add a stop @ 751 Dekalb Industrial Way for better connectivity to marketplace.
You will agree that Owning a car in Atlanta is not always feasible for every scholar/student/trainee and many of us rely on the Emory shuttle system to get around. As you know, North DeKalb shuttle runs from Emory Circle to North DeKalb Mall, there is not a single stop after Walmart on the way to North DeKalb Mall. There is a large marketplace on its way @ 751 Dekalb Industrial Way, Decatur, where many grocery stores, Restaurants and Clothing Stores are located. There are also Child care center, Smart Care Urgent Care (Emory Healthcare) and few apartments located near-by. During November 2017 we requested Emory Parking and Transportation services to add an extra stop for this shuttle but the Transport office could not accommodate our request at that time and assured us that they will evaluate this in future.
Hence, I have started an online petition to pursue this case further with the Emory Transport office. I sincerely request you to join the petition and also circulate the link to your friends and colleagues so others can join this and we have a reasonable number to showcase our need to the transport office for considering our request in near future.
Best regards,
