He acknowledges that the Chow test is appropriate, but then wrongly says that I believe the break model, when it is quite clear that the break analysis is used in hypothesis testing mode, not modelling mode.   The specific claims we made were: Quirk (that there was a break in 1976 - affirmative), and that their was a break in the continuous upward trend in temperatures (contradicting Easterling's assertion).  The fact that T had to factor out ocean indicators in his recent paper, in order to recover an underlying continuous upward trend, seems to demonstrate that Easterlings's assertion was statistically incorrect, and so T has had to try to fix it.   Barry, Sorry about the delay.  I wanted to write a post on it but have not had time.  The issue I would have with T’s rebuttal are the he seems quite incurious about the coincidence between the well documented changes in ocean circulation in bout 1976 and in 1998 (as cohenite linked to and others in my paper).

Do the charts say which lags are used? A lag of 1 is often used, but that doesn't mean it's always reasonable?  Are the data sets available? Tried partial autocorrelation functions?

How much of their territory during their largest expansion would you consider traditional?? According to Islam every bit of land ever owned, governed, or on which a Mosque was built upon is considered theirs. There was no Islam before about 700!

A good article I read about Osama, i think it was by Pointman, said that his motivation for 911 was to unify the Arab states to overthrow their dictators.  With the arab spring, he got his goal.  Its just a theory, and there are many theories.  The Islamic expansionism is certainly worth considering, though where has Islam taken over a country beyond its traditional borders in say, the last 50 years?  Your second link shows that the enemy is within US borders… http://www.familysecuritymatte...
