Another One Bites The Dust?

From the article.....The news comes at an especially awkward time for Mr. Obama. On Sunday he’ll travel to Paris for a historic climate change summit and is expected to call on world leaders to reject fossil fuels and spend heavily on renewable energy, including solar power.

How does one remove the egg from one's face trying to promote renewable energy?

We've been in a now or never, suicide crisis mode regarding the weather since at least the 1970s. In the 70s people were going to freeze in mid-stride while walking down the street. Blizzards were going to be so powerful that the electrical grid would go down nationwide. Snow was going to get 50 feet high in some cities. Move on to the 80s and the polar ice caps would be completely gone by 1994. The sea level was going to rise 30 feet. Super hurricanes were going to obliterate major cities on the coast. Hurricanes and tornadoes were going to get big, stronger and more frequent than ever. Now the "crisis of the day" is crops will fail causing world-wide famine. I'm anxiously awaiting what they will come up with as the next apocalypse.

@ABC: Pope Francis says the world is near ‘suicide’ in regards to climate change:

I think the world of Pope Francis and as a Catholic we're taught to believe he's infallible from the Churches standpoint, but he's been duped on this along with 50% of Americans.   And another bunch of liberals got rich on another Green Energy Fiasco.

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
