This sounds like a good way to accidentally create an industry of reverse lobbyists where the government contracts them to convince tax payers to allocate money to their department. I might be too pessimistic though, I tend towards liking t

Or maybe it is related to the increased building in the WUI. It looks like there are around 15 million new houses built in the interface area than there were 30 years ago.

I agree on calling the bluff. They should, what will the IOC/WADA do? Cancel it? Try to find another sucker with a short notice? But SLC isn't a bad place for a winter Olympics, they hosted it before not long ago and some of the

Wow. The next paragraph is interesting to read from the future: It is the author's opinion that fentanyl CsA's will be back as the future analgesic drugs of abuse. The thoughts behind this statement are that the published synthesi

I had a friend who did forecasting for a utility and getting the forecast wrong by 5 degree would have been very expensive at the time. I don't remember if it was worse in the summer (AC) or winter. And I wish I could remember if they

The first time I found a bird's nest fungus in my yard I felt like an explorer. Same for watching the various slime molds that appear and disappear at various points of the year. I caught a ladybug in the house and while taking it outs

Have you looked at how yr.no plots their forecasts on the phone. I find the graph view to be very helpful in the winter when planning ski days or days to skip. They must have updated the charts recently since they are different from what I

This NYT article had an article with some interesting history of one of the character who saw that opportunity. I see almost all tech focused on advertising as an unfortunate continuation of this trend. And it feels like people are fooling

I recently took a picture of a lizard on a granite with large grains. When I zoomed in to identify the type of lizard I saw that all the grains and some leaves on a tree had been simplified with some type of swirl. I find it unlikely those

It is highly dependent on the snow conditions and the recent weather. Sometimes even just the a couple hours are enough to change the conditions to have a good chance of rollerballs. The climate also has an impact, in my experience more coa

That's an interesting typo in your user name. What kind of manufacturing do you plan to support? And what does it mean to be specific about support for American manufacturing?

I struggle with the idea of tourism being a good basis for an economy. At some point you reach a level where the appeal is outweighed by crowding, and the experiences people want are no longer available.

I think Yellowstone is too big for that compared to places like Zion and Yosemite which have relatively small valleys where people concentrate. I'm not sure shuttles to see Tioga Pass would make sense in the same way they do in the val

Just in case you missed the news about the recall and issues with Philips CPAP machines. You might want to check if there is anything that you can or need to do. The disintegrating foam seems like an unpleasant flaw in production. https:&#
