Grim story if true for the future. The World’s Energy Problem Is Far Worse Than We’re Being Told No politician wants to tell us the real story of fossil fuel depletion. The real story is that we are already running short of oil, coal and natural gas because the direct and indirect costs of extraction are reaching a point where the selling price of food and other basic necessities needs to be unacceptably high to make the overall economic system work. At the same time, wind and solar and other “clean energy” sources are nowhere nearly able to substitute for the quantity of fossil fuels being lost. This unfortunate energy story is essentially a physics problem. Energy per capita and, in fact, resources per capita, must stay high enough for an economy’s growing population. When this does not happen, history shows that civilizations tend to collapse. Politicians cannot possibly admit that today’s world economy is headed for collapse, in a way similar to that of prior civilizations. Instead, they need to provide the illusion that they are in charge. The self-organizing system somehow leads politicians to put forward reasons why the changes ahead might be desirable (to avert climate change), or at least temporary (because of sanctions against Russia). https://oilprice.com/Energy/Crude-Oil/The-Worlds-Energy-Problem-Is-Far-Worse-Than-Were-Being-Told.html Texas, home of Eagle Ford, Permian and Barnett shale oil plays, holds more than 60 billion barrels of shale oil alone, Rystad estimates. That is more than the untapped oil in all of China. There are also vast sums of oil beneath the ground in North Dakota, where the Bakken shale oil play sits. Plus oil in Alaska

Even if Trump were charged with a crime it would be impossible to have a impartial jury and convict. Graham would be right about riots. Irv is right , what a mess.

Younger then Kern and I would guess about equal, I like.

The San Diego Police were investigating this case the day after Halloween and hospital . Should have had result before the draft.

Applications will be available in early Oct and take 4-6 weeks to process , hence more deferral.

The Bills could offer a 7th rd pick for a trade and see if that is enough or a player they want who the Bills will release. Titans' Brett Kern praises Ryan Stonehouse, talks possibility of getting cut https://titanswire.usatoday.com/2022/08/27/tennessee-titans-brett-kern-ryan-stonehouse-53-man-roster/

The Bills should take good care of the poor girl no matter

McDermett is upset and losing sleep , the team picks up on this ,settle this before start of season.

I just hope the hospital rape test was done in time and she did not wash away the evidence. I feel very sorry for the young girl and want those responsible in prison.

Trump thinks there is a mole at Mar Lago , cool 🙂

They need to interview the girl's friends who took her home , why not direct to hospital , what she told them and her condition.

But home grow for recreational use will not become legal until 18 months after the first dispensaries open, per the legalization law — so no cannabis window boxes or backyard cultivation until well into 2024. (And, like the medical program, only six plants allowed: three in flower, and three immature.)Jul 27, 2022 https://www.ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2022/07/26/you-can-legally-smoke-cannabis-in-new-york---but-can-you-grow-it-#:~:text=But home grow for recreational,flower%2C and three immature.) I quit smoking long ago but a brownie would be tempting 🙂

I have no idea , on financial matters I just agree with BillStime 🙂

In California, it is illegal for an adult (someone 18 or older) to have sex with a minor (someone younger than 18), even if the sex is consensual. Those who break the law have committed statutory rape. https://www.criminaldefenselawyer.com/resources/california-statutory-rape-laws.htm#:~:text=In California%2C it is illegal,law have committed statutory rape.

If the accusation is false can the men counter sue for defamation of character ?

No , my standard deduction doubled . I'm more concerned with the national debt especially due to covid. Now we don't have enough to deal global warming (I know fake news) . How is the decrease in water and farms unable to irrigate going in California ?

With a booming economy for Trumps first 3 years , (2020 won't count due to covid) did the national debt go down with massive tax cuts to the rich and big business ? Helping student debt which has excessive interest is right.

What have republicans done to address this problem in the past 20 years ?

If $20K for those with pell grants or $10K for those who did not qualify ALF approves. Liz Warren and other D politicians wanted $50K , Bernie and progressives wanted 100% forgiveness. That makes Biden a ultra conservative 🙂

The 87,000 new auditors are just to try and figure out Trump's returns 🙂

The world's first hydrogen-powered passenger trains are here The future of environmentally friendly travel might just be here -- and it's Germany that's leading the charge, with the first ever rail line to be entirely run on hydrogen-powered trains, starting from Wednesday. The trains are emissions-free and low-noise, with only steam and condensed water issuing from the exhaust. They have a range of 1,000 kilometers (621 miles), meaning they can run for an entire day on the network on a single tank of hydrogen. A hydrogen filling station has already been established on the route. The trains can go at a maximum of 140 kph, or 87mph, though regular speeds on the line are much less, between 80-120 kph. https://www.cnn.com/travel/article/coradia-ilint-hydrogen-trains/index.html

The problem with fed student loans is the high interest rates even before inflation. $10K would put a dent in those excessive interest charges. Adding more IRS auditors to catch tax cheats will cover the cost.

I'm good with $10K relief for inflation, for earners under $50K.

No one has any idea what happened in Moscow , do you believe Putin ? Yes more funding to Ukraine.
