This article ostensibly helps the consumer make the right decision concerning a home wind turbine. Here’s the problem: the concept of small wind, i.e., wind products that generate amounts of electricity suitable for residential use, is not workable.
Various attempts were made to make this work over the past couple of decades: most legitimate, yet some fraudulent. But even those offered with the best of intentions have failed. (more…)
The headline in the graphic translates into English (roughly) as “Warming trend in Germany stronger than worldwide.” (See larger graphic below.) (more…)
Oh, I don’t think anyone’s giving up on him. In the first place, most of his supporters are still behind him.
In addition, he has hundreds of criminal prosecutors at the federal, state and city levels who are working tirelessly to make sure he receives the justice he so richly deserves. He can look forward to a torrent of indictments for fraud, tax evasion, election interference, campaign finance violations, obstruction, and witness tampering. Also possible are charges for negligent homicide/manslaughter, and treason.
No one’s giving up.
I clicked on this, hoping there might be a funny little story connected with it–only to find out that these, Life Site News, people are as serious as a heart attack.
As if my life during the pandemic weren’t tough enough, now I’m reported to be teaming with the goddamned witches and satanists to destroy our beloved republic. I hate it when that happens.
Seriously, doesn’t it seem that the quality of Americans’ thinking just keeps getting worse?
American cinema of 1999 featured “Sixth Sense,” a clever flick about a little boy who could see dead people.
So sad that we’re going through this, where hundreds of thousands of young people are enjoying spring break, packed together like sardines, partying without masks in bars all over the south part of the country. Are they likely to die of COVID-19? No. Are they likely to transmit the disease and force our entire society back into lockdown? Of course, but who cares, when you really don’t give a damn about anyone but yourself?
We all know people who, despite knowing nothing about a certain scientific discipline, have unshakable convictions that fly in the teeth of the experts in the area–that they feel compelled to impose onto others.
Before QAnon, this was largely confined to climate deniers, but now we have pandemic hoaxers, anti-vaxxers, flat-Earthers, school-shooting hoaxers, etc. It never ends.

Here’s a discussion with a reader who notes:
If the new Attorney General Merrick Garland can dismantle the two-tiered system of justice that has plagued this country since its inception, it will be the finest achievement in U.S. history.
There is so much good going on right now that it’s hard to find anything to write a nastygram about. I have the same comment John McEnroe made about the electronic linesmen in tennis: “Now I have no one to yell at.”
It’s the Ides of March, the date in 44 BCE on which Julius Caesar was stabbed to death in the building that housed a meeting of the Roman Senate. A conspiracy of men called the Liberators had been plotting his assassination for months, driven by their perception that Caesar was setting himself up as a tyrant, but with sad irony (from the Writer’s Almanac): The assassination that was meant to save the Republic actually resulted, ultimately, in its downfall. It sparked a series of civil wars and led to Julius’ heir, Octavian, becoming Caesar Augustus, the first Roman emperor. This, of course, was the very thing the conspirators had meant to ovoid.
A great deal of environmental healing will come from the Biden administration, at least if we can predict the future based on the first two months. In particular, there has been robust discussion concerning putting an end to subsidies that the fossil fuel industry receives from the U.S. government.
It appears that the U.S. Congress was not too pleased to learn that what was sold as “clean coal” actually increased, rather than reduced, toxic emissions from coal-fired power plants. This article suggests that the outcome of a congressional investigation could influence whether lawmakers vote to renew a multibillion-dollar subsidy, which expires at the end of 2021.
