Holy cow. I am just speechless. What city did this happen in? That is a full-grown adult kindergartener.
Russia Launches Record 188 Drones Against Critical Infrastructure In Ukraine
Is Putin reading this thread?
Thanks for writing this. I took so much heat some time ago when it was clear that Russia was going easy on Ukraine. Many Russian sympathizers and ex Russians live in the Ukraine. Putin didn't want to kill his own people!!
When Russia learned of the 25 bio-labs in the Ukraine doing everything evil possible he went in to destroy them. That really pissed the obiden regime off and they have Russia/collusioned the country ever since. The dirty dems never will stop since their lie about Russia or face the truth that the obiden adm. are all traitors and as evil as evil can get.
RE: Sec Navy
I did my best.
Flooded Team Trump, POTUS-47, Scavino and DonKr with requests but...
They just didn’t choose you.
Sorry.
Did the FBI even call?
😏😂👍
Thanks.
How did San Joaquin break for Trump?
Seems like the amount left with SJ and Fresno will make/break the vote.
The other three don’t quite add-up to either of them.
Missing an ID for that one… but understood.
The second woman is a dead wringer for the crazy girlfriend meme.
Those Li-Ion storage battery systems are, IMHO, a big disaster waiting to happen. Even if nothing goes wrong, the battery life isn’t anything close to utility company scale. Old fashioned lead acid batteries, if cared for, can last 10-20 years. We use them in power substations and have for many decades. Power plants are built to last 30-60 years.
But these Li-Ion - just look at your iPhone too see how long they’ll last. After 5 years, they don’t hold nearly the amount of energy they did when new. That means that they’ll need replacement within 10 years if the storage facility is going to remain useful for the many decades that it’s supposedly needed.
The only purpose of these giant battery packs is to make available, the energy from the solar farm, assuming that there is any, at times when the sun don’t shine. Which, in areas where there isn’t a lot of sun, could be about 18 hours a day.
And yes, the rare earth materials that are mined for these storage systems are environmentally nasty. Not to mention the dirty, nasty mining operations that take place to extract them. And if something DOES go wrong (which it will eventually), you’ll have a serious, dangerous mess in the area.
If you’re going to store energy, pumped hydro power is a much better solution. They built TVA’s Raccoon Mountain pumped storage facility in the 70s - it’s still going strong today. I think up there in MI, there’s the Ludington pumped storage plant, possibly others.
Another great energy storage scheme, though not in favor these days, is that huge pile of coal sitting next to the coal-fired power plant. Can’t speak for everyone in the industry, but it was common to have at least a 30 day supply on site at the plant, with a buildup to 50 or 60 days if the United Mine Workers were threatening to go on strike.
This push to go “green” is a huge boondoggle, as you well know. There is no climate crisis, and there is no need to litter up a ton of farm land to make these marginally available solar farms. They are doing it mainly to “look cool” and to gain a huge tax credit.
Wonder if he went to his brother Jeff’s Island?
“Now that’s funny right thar. And I’m pretty sure Nurse Ratchett knows how to install Rob’s pills where they belong. “
I agree with you 100%!
Nurse Ratched is the correct spelling, however.
Happy Thanksgiving FRiend.
Intimidated? Or intimated?
Thanks Uber and all who responded. I have been very busy getting ready for tomorrow and did not have time to do any research. Happy Thanksgiving to All.

Perhaps it did not lower the risk because Cholesterol and saturated fat are NOT bad, but necessary. It has been suggested that Medical Science has been wrong about this for a long time. You need Cholesterol to strenghten cell membranes, to create Vitamin D3, and to create CoQ1 which is converted to CoQ10 which is used by the cell to create energy. If you reduce something needed to make energy for the heart perhaps the risk of heart attack is greater?? This has been an issue with Statin drugs, they suppress your CoQ10 and you feel tired and terrible.
