Um, A&M is a phenomenal...

It's the, the best leadership environment I've ever been in.

You say that, but now I have a son playing college football at Yale, so now I'm like, "Oh, no, maybe Yale-"

Oh

So think temperature and pressure, geochemistry those are the kind of things to focus on and i would say polish polish more in terms of knowledge as you want to move into geotherm egf specifically

okay Moving into questions, I have one, which is I had experience working with an underground coal gasification back in the early 80s as a research project at Texas A&M and bringing extremely hot temperatures to the surface from fairly shallow depths.

had a huge and catastrophic effect on our casing, which, you know, and it's not that the temperature gets to it.

It's the cycling of the temperature that ends up getting to the metallurgy and is one of the things or one of the practices in producing these projects long term to keep cycles of heating and cooling to a minimum.

Robert Gates, former Secretary of Defense under both Presidents Bush and Obama, which is pretty interesting.

He was Director of Central Intelligence, and he was the President, Chancellor, I forget what, of Texas A&M.

Baylor was the one who did the Whitewater under Clinton.

He was the chancellor at Baylor, Ken Starr.

And then, of course, you taught the residency program at the time, which was Baylor.

Now it's part of Texas A&M, you mentioned.

So So much experience and so much stuff to share with us.

We have two guests today.

And he is going to be joining to discuss some possible reasons why the clinical system is missing men who show potential warning signs, things like anger or irritability.

So I came back and continued my education focusing on agribusiness.

And this is about the time when Texas A&M started a agribusiness program in collaboration with USDA and Armenian Agricultural Academy.

It was a very, very nice opportunity for me.

So I joined the program and I got a degree in economics and the certificate from Texas A&M in agribusiness.

So then that kind of led me, I realized that I would like to learn more.

I kind of enjoyed learning, especially agribusiness, so I applied to graduate programs in the US.

That was an impressive performance for Tang, considering the field included six All-Americans.

Tang tied one of them, Sayetana Fernandez-Garcia Poggio of Texas A&M, and beat another, Mark Silchenko of Oklahoma State.

Junior Vivian Cressman tied for 49th individually to help Navy post an 11th place finish as a team.

Outside hitters Caroline Buffum, Farrah Ikey, and Ellen Gundlach combined to pound down 36 kills as Navy volleyball beat Maryland Eastern Shore in four sets in its final non-league match.
