Pay People To Take The Covid Shots

Update Dec 4 

They are talking about getting $1500 dollars for getting a vaccination. That is just a mean spirited ploy. Most of them won't get a check to the end of March. The stimulus round 2 deal goes like this. The Republican won't go over one trillion dollars says the republicans. The democrats says a big stimulus will happen when they get into office. So the stimulus check would be coming out till Biden is in office. There are making a reckless speculation the democrats' will be able to pass the come February. There might be a deal made with passing the one trillion covid bill and then putting stimulus check on the national debt bill. I wonder on the national debt bill on Dec 11, putting the stimulus check on this, will this mode get the money to the peoples faster. Between these two bills, will the politician give the magority us the Christmas recue of our dreams?

The nation debt and military bill is coming up Dec 11. Can the democrats shutdown the government over the debt bill. That is what I do. I go with, if only a small proportion of people are getting relief, then its time to make everyone insecure by shutting down. You shutdown the government by not passing the national debt bill, the positive side of it is a lot more life's would be saved by not passing on Covid. So I wouldn't open up the government until the $4 billion comprehensive bill gets passed.

***Am I the only thinking here? There seems to be large proportion of people who won't take the covid vaccine. Our minorities and poor are a big proportion of this population. So why doesn't our US government pay people to take this vaccine? Pay them $100, $200 to $500 to take the shot. I believe on the second shot, you will have to boost the amount. What would be the ramification if some people got two vaccinations for money. Well, you would need identification to get the money and a comprehensive data base to prevent this.

You know what I say, screw ethics and morality at this point of the pandemic. Just get the god damn shots!

You should also on the spot, have a option to direct your covid reward to a charity. Maybe a list of charities have available.

Rush Limbaugh says his lung cancer is terminal

 It would be ironic if he dies from Covid. Does he wear covid masks? 

Derecho at Duane Arnold Damaged to All Lines Going Into Plant...LOOP

On August 10, 2020, at 1246 CDT, while operating at 80% power, NextEra Energy Duane Arnold (DAEC) experienced a generator load reject and subsequent reactor scram as a result of a loss of offsite power (LOOP) due to extremely high winds. An Unusual Event was declared at 1258. All Safety Systems performed as designed. As a result of the LOOP, the 'A' and 'B' Emergency Diesel Generators automatically started and supplied power to the safety related busses. As a result, the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) automatically initiated and injected into the reactor. In addition, containment isolations occurred, as expected for this event. This resulted in a 4-hour event report to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.72 section 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(A) - ECCS Injection, 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) - RPS Actuation - Critical, 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) - Valid Specific System Actuation (reference EN#54826). The NOUE by was exited at 1600 on August 11, 2020. The cause of the LOOP was an extremely severe storm (called a Derecho) with heavy rains and very high winds. This event had no impact on public health or safety. There were no systems, structures, or components inoperable at the time of the event that contributed to the event. This event is reportable pursuant to 10 CFR 50.73(a)(2)(iv)(A) and 50.73(a)(2)(iii). There were no radiological releases associated with this event.

On August 10, 2020, at 1246 CDT, while operating at 80% power, NextEra Energy Duane Arnold (DAEC) experienced a Generator Load reject and subsequent reactor scram as a result of a loss of offsite power (LOOP) due to extremely high winds. An Unusual Event was declared at 1258. All Safety Systems performed as designed.

As a result of the LOOP, the 'A' and 'B' Emergency Diesel Generators (EDGs) automatically started and supplied power to the safety related busses. In response to the expected Reactor Pressure Vessel (RPV) level transient, the High Pressure Coolant Injection (HPCI) and Reactor Core Isolation Cooling (RCIC) automatically started and injected. In addition, containment isolations occurred, as expected for this event.

This resulted in a 4-hour event report to the NRC under 10 CFR 50.72 section 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(A) - ECCS Injection, 50.72(b)(2)(iv)(B) - RPS Actuation - Critical, 50.72(b)(3)(iv)(A) - Valid Specific System Actuation (reference EN#54826).

The cause of the LOOP was an extremely severe storm (called a Derecho) with heavy rains and very high winds. This event had no impact on public health or safety. There were no systems, structures, or components inoperable at the time of the event that contributed to the event.

The Unusual Event was exited at 1600 on August 11, 2020.

II. Assessment of Safety Consequences:

In response to the LOOP, the plant experienced a Generator Lockout, Turbine Trip and Reactor Scram. The operating crew entered the appropriate emergency procedures. The EDG's quickly re-energized the safety-related electrical busses and restored power. The Reactor Protection System (RPS) power was never lost as the EDG's were able to recover power to the essential buses quickly. This prevented a Main Steam Isolation Valve (MSIV) isolation signal and thus allowed the Main Condenser to remain available post event. As expected for this event, RPV level dropped below L2 setpoint (119.5") initiating the HPCI and RCIC systems. Reactor level recovered quickly. The Low Low Set System functioned as designed initially opening two primary system relief valves to control reactor pressure.

Operators were quickly able to establish pressure control initially via Steam Line Drains and RCIC and establish a cooldown rate.

Both recirculating pumps tripped when power was lost to their associated non-safety related electrical busses. The operators followed procedures for cooldown with no forced circulation in the core. When Shutdown Cooling was placed in service, forced circulation was re-established which resulted in exceeding the bottom head cooldown limits of 100 degrees per hour. This was anticipated and could not be avoided. 

This event did not result in a Safety System Functional Failure. Ill.

Cause of Event: The cause of the LOOP was an extremely severe storm (called a Derecho) with heavy rains and very high winds. Wind speeds exceeded 80 mph for over 20 minutes with peaks on site at greater than 100 mph. The National Weather Service later estimated wind speeds were likely near 130 mph. These winds resulted in all 6 off site power sources (4 - 161 kV and 2 - 345 kV) coming into the DAEC switchyard being damaged or downed. A separate offsite 69 kV line which feeds non-essential plant loads was also damaged. IV.

Corrective Actions: REV NO. - 00 The high winds experienced on August 10, 2020 were not considered a beyond design basis event. The systems and components responded as designed and the overall peak wind speeds were within the Design Basis Tornado. The damage observed coincides with the amount of damage expected for the event. Given this event was outside the control of the station staff and that all components worked as designed, no additional corrective actions beyond repair/recovery efforts related to the wind storm are needed.

Additional Information: Previous Similar Occurrences: A review of NextEra Energy Duane Arnold LERs from the previous 5 years identified the following event: LER 2018-004 - Automatic Reactor Scram due to Feedwater Regulating Valve Failure LER 2019-001 - Automatic Reactor Scram due to Loss of Feedwater.

The Hinsdale NH Police Department, the NH State Police Investigators...Are A Object Failure To The Victims Of High Crimes In Hinsdale!

All the citizens, the families and children in my town and the surroundings, these terrorist thugs, we should all be concerned these thugs are stilling running around in our town. 

I consider this a professional hit job. To me, I think the unknown thugs allowed Shippee to observe the murders, told Shippee he needs to commit suicide within a few days or they will come back to torture your family and then kill you.

Shippe's body was discovered in Vernon VT. There is a notorious biker bar near the shuttered VY plant. Well, I think the bar is shutdown now, so the building is a gathering place for the biker club. You can hear the bikes coming and going from my house. Where they selling heroin there? A distribution headquarters! Is this where the professional guys came from?

Did the tugs give Shippee the heroin to kill himself...told him to go to Vernon and commit suicide. That way the death could be a advertising tag for the biker club. Raise their credibility. Of course, the tugs could have taken Shippee and his car to Vernon in a inebriated manner, then killed him by a heroin injection there.

Remember, Hinsdale is the heroin and hard drug distribution capital area for Keene and the surroundings?

Remember Vernon has really sparse police coverage today...they no longer have a police department. Vernon today is a very poor town! Vernon would be a perfect place for a bike club headquarters or satellite office?         

Authorities continue to say little about Hinsdale double homicide

by PAUL CUNO-BOOTH Sentinel Staff 

Personnel changes at N.H. State Police have prolonged the investigation into an April 2019 double homicide in Hinsdale, which the authorities continue to say little about, according to a recent motion from the N.H. Attorney General’s Office.

Neal Bolster, 29, and Aaliyah Jacobs, 19, both of Hinsdale, were found shot dead that month in Bolster’s Plain Road home. The following day, the N.H. Attorney General’s Office announced it was charging Derrick Shippee, 28, of Westmoreland, with the murders.

Shippee was found dead in Vernon, Vt., that day of what the medical examiner’s office would later rule an accidental drug overdose.

Authorities in New Hampshire have never publicly described the circumstances of the killings, the motive or investigators’ reasons for suspecting Shippee. They say the investigation is ongoing.

“The length of the investigation has been in large part due to personnel changes within State Police,” Assistant Attorney General Jesse O’Neill wrote in an Aug. 12 motion.

Initially, the investigation was in the hands of a State Police detective and Hinsdale's police chief at the time, Todd Faulkner. But around the end of 2019 and start of 2020, the detective retired, and Faulkner left for a job with the Cheshire County Sheriff’s Office, according to the motion.

“At that point, the case was reassigned to another State Police detective, but shortly thereafter was brought under the purview of the State Police Major Crime Unit and assigned to two investigators within that unit,” O’Neill wrote in the August motion. “These investigators have now familiarized themselves with the history of the investigation and are taking steps to advance the investigation towards a conclusion.”

The Attorney General’s Office has consistently opposed the release of an affidavit from April 2019 that outlines the state’s case for charging Shippee with murder.

The Sentinel has been to court three times since June 2019 seeking access to that document, which is sealed. The Attorney General’s Office has argued that disclosure would harm the ongoing investigation because it could influence what potential witnesses tell police.

“To unseal the affidavit in support of Mr. Shippee’s arrest at this point presents a significant risk of tainting the ongoing investigation and preventing it from reaching a legitimate conclusion,” O’Neill wrote in the Aug. 12 motion.

In an order issued Sept. 4 and received by The Sentinel on Monday, Judge David S. Forrest of the 8th Circuit Court in Keene ruled for a third time that the affidavit can remain sealed. 

After hearing closed-door testimony from N.H. State Police Detective Matthew Anderson, Forrest wrote that the state had presented adequate justification to keep the records secret for now.

"In short, the Court finds that there is still an ongoing active pre-indictment criminal investigation, which could be jeopardized by unsealing the warrants and affidavits," Forrest wrote. 

However, he ordered the Attorney General's Office to update him on the status of the investigation by Dec. 4 and wrote that he would immediately schedule another hearing if the office continues to oppose disclosure.

Court documents like affidavits are presumed public. But judges can keep them sealed if convinced that the government's need to keep information under wraps overrides the public’s interest in seeing them.

Under N.H. Supreme Court precedent, the authorities have more leeway to block disclosure when an investigation is in a "pre-indictment" phase.

In a Sept. 2 hearing, Forrest noted that The Sentinel has questioned how the investigation could still qualify as "pre-indictment," given that the suspect has long since died. Forrest asked whether that was because police were investigating whether others were involved.

O'Neill did not answer directly, saying he would address that in the closed-door hearing without The Sentinel present.

The Attorney General's Office declined to comment on the ruling or respond to specific questions about the scope of its investigation, whether it is expected to conclude by Dec. 4 and how the office defines "pre-indictment."

"Based on the New Hampshire Rules of Professional Conduct, in particular, Rules 3.6 and 3.8, we are unable to comment on this matter as the investigation remains ongoing," Kate Giaquinto, a spokeswoman for the office, said via email Monday, referring to rules covering pre-trial publicity and a prosecutor's responsibility.

Covid: Are We Heading For Trouble With New Medicines and Procedures?

We have been saving a lot of very sick Covid patients with the new medicines and medical procedures. They are bringing back people from the dead. Steroids being one example. The patients still have very long hospitalizations and lengthy critical care needs. I think our hospitals and critical care facilities will overload a lot more faster than in the early covid infections. In the early days, there was a lot of patient turnovers because of the high fatality rate. You see what I am saying? In the late fall and early winter 2020 with the infection surge, it will be noted the fatality rate is smaller than last winter. The hospitals will be filling up with people who should have died. At some point it will overwhelm the facilities and medical staffs with the burdens of the very sick saved by the new medicines and procedures. This is when the fatality rate will skyrocket skyrocket!           

Justice Ginsberg Falls Down and Breaks Three Ribs

Update Sept 18

Bader negated all the good she done by not stepping down during the Obama presidency: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg dead at 87.

Reposted from 8/23

Update July 17 

Ginsberg has had liver cancers since Feb 2019. She has had a secret  operation since then and took biopsies. She just disclosed this today. She just went into the hospital with a persistent high temperature. She is under gone cancers treatment and now some special kind of persistent cancer treatment.

If she dies before the next election, can you even imagine the constitional crisis she has created. Will Trump and the senate stuff another conservative justice down our throats before he leaves office. His popularity is so low now, it is doubtful he could win the next election.   

reposted from Aug 23 2019

 

Update Aug 24

If she dies or resigns anywhere near the last year of Trump's presidency, do you think the Republicans will replace her with a ultra conservative replacement? Would that rip the country apart? I think it would. But there are some positives outcomes with that. It would inflame the public and make the democrats more strident to get to the polls? 

Update Aug 23, 2019 

Justice Ginsburg is greatest traitor to American liberal values there ever was. She has progressively gotten more fragile in recent years. The arrogance of this women. Can you just imagine the who the conservative Trump and the senate are going to choose this go-round. If she was really great, she would have resigned at the end of the Obama administration.

She has pancreatic cancer now. They say she is stronger than superman. I give her three months in office now again. She had three weeks of radiation therapy and they got it all.

***Ginsberg is a disgrace to the nation. She obliterated all the good she did on the court.

The White House is reaching out to political allies and conservative activist groups to prepare for an ailing Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s possible death or departure from the Supreme Court — an event that would trigger the second bitter confirmation battle of President Donald Trump’s tenure. 

The outreach began after Ginsburg, 85, on Monday missed oral arguments at the court for the first time in her 25 years on the bench. The justice, who was nominated to the court by President Bill Clinton in 1993, announced in late December that she underwent a surgical procedure to remove two cancerous growths from her lungs.

***Update Dec 21

Ginsberg now got lung cancer. The doctors cut the lung cancer out and returned her body to a 21 year old women. She is a traitor to the cause, all the good she done is negated by not stepping down to a president with similar values as hers. Imagine, Trump gets to chose her replacement. She is such a disgrace and traitor to our nation. 

reposted from 11/8

This indicates she is in a very fragile state for her age. Twice she had cancer.  All the good she had done for women and for the liberal causes are going to be ruin if she dies or step down during the age of Trump and his senate cronies. Can you imagine who her replacement would be with Trump.

To keep the Justices fresh, they should be required to step down at 65 years. The replacement planning processes would be a lot more cogent on the big picture...

If she was really a great public figure and looking out for the best of the nation...she would have stepped down during the Obama administration. Had a hand in picking her replacement.

I give her three months...

Alien Craft Scanning Nuclear Plants, Particularly Palo Verde

Hmm, more drones. Either foreign forces testing our defenses or Aliens sending us a message. A submarine could put these drones into the air. Our adversaries satellites could get about as much information as a drone?    

Mysterious Drone Incursions Have Occurred Over U.S. THAAD Anti-Ballistic Missile Battery In Guam

It's yet another reminder of just how vulnerable highly strategic assets, even air defense systems, are to low-end drones.

***There is just no doubt our military and government knows about UFOs. Our gov has a military policy of ignoring UFOs. We really don't act aggressive with them because we know our aircraft will get shot down or worst. Can you even fathom the planetary turmoil if one of our planes were chasing a UFO and it got shot down? Especially in the USA where out skies is so heavenly monitored by the civilians and military. I sure the aliens know the tightrope we are all walking on. If shot down, the civilians or another aircraft pilot would see it, it would get captured in a cell phone camera. I am absolutely sure it would be up to the total discretion with the aliens if they wanted outsiders to see the shoot down. At any moment, the aliens can utterly roil the planet.

"Rock star Tom DeLonge has spoken to Sky News about his work on UFOs, saying he would not have put music on the backburner to "chase monsters and ghosts" and that research into the subject could "change the world"."

I am sure our military and adversaries have extraordinarily sensitive satellites in our skies. They could just about discern any electronic emissions at almost undetectable levels. They monitors our skies 24/7 and record everything. So if incident happens, they can replay the event in detail. Lets take Palo Verde with the drone radio control signals. I am convinced our military can replay the drone events at the facility, then detect and identify all drone radio control signatures either commercial or foreign military gear. They could easily detect and decide if this was a spoofed alien drone. There have been UFOs in the past who flew nuclear plants. They have never shown any hostile intent to these plants.

I am just saying, we have a national military posture not to show the UFOs any hostile and aggressive intent with our aircraft. I suspect it would be the same strategy with alien drones.                     

***Somebody is gather intelligence on these sites and it is systematic. It is a sophisticated operation. Is it just imagines or other kinds of electronic emissions? 

Palo Verde: It is a three unit plant. It is the largest nuclear plant in the USA. This site was particularly designed to feed juice to California. Remember California had been in the electricity crisis all summer and is in a grid emergency as we speak.      

There is no doubt the aliens have the  technology to make them look like a typical drone. These guys are way more advanced than us. I mean, they could get a detailed scan by a spacecraft. They probable have drones the size of insects with more capabilities than anything we got. Obviously, if aliens, they wanted the plant security staff to see the drones and report it all the way up to the feds. They want this on the media record.   

Dozens More Mystery Drone Incursions Over U.S. Nuclear Power Plants Revealed

Forbes recently described how a swarm of drones flew in a restricted area at Palo Verde Nuclear Power Plant on two successive nights last September. A new cache of documents obtained under the Freedom of Information Act (FoIA) reveals how 24 nuclear sites suffered at least 57 drone incursions from 2015 to 2019 – and Palo Verde itself was overflown again in December, despite new security measures.

Scientific coalition for UAP studies: SCU is a cooperative of scientists, former military and law enforcement officials and other professionals, many of whom have decades of experience looking into UAPs, believe there are many unanswered questions, and that a serious examination is warranted"

The documents were obtained by from the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission by Douglas D. Johnson on behalf of the Scientific Coalition for UAP Studies (SCU). The SCU’s main interest is in anomalous aerospace phenomena, more commonly known as UFOs, but Johnson uncovered a series of incidents involving something less exotic but potentially more threatening: commercial drones.

In the September incidents, a swarm of five or six large drones flew over Unit 3 nuclear reactor at Palo Verde in Arizona for about eighty minutes, a length of time which suggested they were carrying out a thorough survey of the site. The documents released at the time referred to a similar incident at Limerick Nuclear Generating Station in Pennsylvania.

Johnson sent a follow-up request to get more details. The response was a terse list of fifty-seven security incidents (SIDs) involving drones, running from December 2014 to October 2019. This provides little more than the date and location, with no details of the number or type of drones involved. We do not know how many involved multiple, simultaneous drone flyovers. At the time the list was generated, three of the incidents were listed as ‘Open’ and five ‘Closed Resolved.’ but the overwhelming majority, 49 of them, were ‘Closed Unresolved.’ This indicates that for 85% of the cases the NRC has no idea who the perpetrators are or what they intended, and has given up on finding them.

There were 7 drone incidents in 2017, rising to 21 in 2018, the last full year for which numbers were given.

Twelve of the sites had only reported a single incident, but others had seen several. Limerick had five drone sightings, Perry Nuclear Power Plant in Cleveland, Ohio had six and Diablo Canyon near San Luis Obispo in California had no less than seven separate incidents from December 2015 to September 2018, all of them unresolved. The scale spread and number of intrusions indicate that this is not a local issue, and that the drone overflight may be carried out by a large, coordinated organization.

While most of the sites were nuclear reactors, there were also three drone incursions over spent nuclear fuel storage sites, including Trojan in Oregon and Rancho Seco in California where radioactive waste is stored in steel canisters inside giant concrete casks.

The new release also indicates that a third incident occurred at Palo Verde in December 2019, this time apparently with only two drones, described as ‘industrial-sized craft’ three feet across, similar to those previously seen. As with the two previous incident , they were exploring the Unit 3 reactor area. Following the September drone incident, Palo Verde was supposed to be protected by drone detection technology provided by ‘Area Armor’ (likely a typo for Aerial Armor) to pinpoint the drone operator within a 13-mile radius. The idea was that anyone flying a drone would be rapidly apprehended by site security personnel.

Site security personnel have have no police powers outside their plant. They can only make a complaint to the local police or Feds. 

This does not appear to have worked, and again the incident was closed as unresolved.

The big question is how much of a danger such drone overflights pose, and there has been some lively online discussion on this point. While reactors themselves are protected by thick concrete domes able to withstand the impact of a crashing airliner, the above-ground pools in which spend nuclear fuel is stored may be

Well, these guys now knows where the intake for the building ventilation is.  All three plants have have separate ventilation. My worry now is putting large qualities of poisonous gas into the ventilation system. It would kill them all in there or numerous people. The plant wouldn't meltdown on its own. This kind of attack would change the tragedy with the nuclear industry. Can you just imagine the media play on this.      

far more vulnerable. A 2011 report by the Institute of Policy Studies noted that over 40,000 tons of highly radioactive waste is stored in pools, many above ground: “some of the largest concentrations of radioactive material on the planet.” These pools are not heavily protected, but are in light structures similar to big-box stores and car dealerships.

A 2003 report noted how vulnerable such pools were to terrorist action, simply by making a hole in the pool to drain out the cooling water and causing the stored fuel to overheat: “We warned that U.S. spent fuel pools were vulnerable to acts of terror. The drainage of a pool might cause a catastrophic radiation fire, which could render an area uninhabitable much greater than that created by the Chernobyl accident.”

Robert Alvarez, author of the 2003 and 211 reports, reiterated the danger from terrorist attacks on fuel pools in 2017.

Greenpeace sought to highlight how easy it would be to hit such a target by crashing a drone into a French nuclear plant in 2018. How effective small drones would be is open to question. Certainly, small drones can be highly destructive against vulnerable targets, shown in incident where they blew up ammunition dumps and destroyed thousands of tons of munitions in Ukraine. The two-pound warhead fired by the shoulder-launched M72 rocket launcher can make a dime-sized hole through two feet of reinforced concrete. The drones seen at Palo Verde could carry something significantly bigger.

Drones might also locate, identify, distract or even target security personnel as part of a larger terrorist action. If drone flyovers become routine, security may cease to consider they are a danger – until it is too late.

The documents indicate that even within the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, the evaluation of the threats, vulnerabilities and consequences of drone overflights is still ongoing. In one meeting on security, “Staff pointed out that no flyovers have yet exhibited a threat to nuclear power plant.”

That may sound reassuring. But as long as swarms of mystery drones are able to fly over nuclear facilities with impunity, there must surely be cause for concern.

I told you the USS Richard was a shipyard employee or sailor sabotage

I based it on the destroyed submarine USS Miami. So why was these two ships destroyed by either a sailor or shipyard worker?  What kind of conditions in the shipyard or Navy pier completing shipyard work causes this kind of sabotage. I am talking about 3 billion dollars distroyed.

On linkedIn I thought it was a sailor or shipyard employee who set the fire. I took a lot of shit over this.    

Sources: Sailor under investigation for arson in USS Bonhomme Richard ship fire

SAN DIEGO (KGTV) -- A Navy sailor is under investigation in connection with the fire that caused extensive damage to the USS Bonhomme Richard at Naval Base San Diego, sources told ABC 10News.

Multiple sources with close ties to Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) told ABC 10News that investigators determined the July 12 fire may have been set intentionally. Investigators identified a sailor as an arson suspect in their probe, sources said.

The sources added multiple search warrants were executed at the sailor’s home and property. The sailor’s name and rank were not disclosed.

On Tuesday, a Navy spokesperson told ABC 10News that NCIS requested help from the National Response Team for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) because the agency provides resources and expertise on complex, large-scale incidents like the massive ship fire.

A Navy spokesperson on Wednesday declined to confirm what sources told ABC 10News regarding the suspect and now-arson investigation.

However, the spokesperson said, “The investigations are ongoing and there is nothing new to announce on their current status or findings.”

Them Damn Democrats' Are Doing It Again

 What I can say about the Dem convention, it just wasn't unsatisfying. It was like a exaggerated product advertisement who just shows you a selective view of the gadget. They are just promise the gadget will make your life perfect, but it never does. They are just selling dreams for selfish mean. Like, what was wrong with the last election and what did they learn from it (Clinton)...how will they be different. How did The Obama administration make black lives better? Reform the police departments? The example was bragging about all the jobs created by the Obama last night. He hardly created any jobs other than those lost from the great recession. I hold the Dems more accountable for how we got here because they are the party of the middle class and poor. This is how Trump flourish, the middle class and poor has had a really tough 30 years. We haven't gained much during those times and the world has gotten much harsher for most of us. It is just no wonder why so many people voted for trump and have given up on all institutions. Obama, the Dems and lot of them have failed us in so many year over decades. I just think so many have lost all faith in our institutions and politics, we voted for trump as a act of terrorism. I know Trump is a scumbag and unstable...but I want to vote to punish the system for ignoring me and the people around. So voting for great plans and ideas never worked, so I am going to do the opposite to vote against my greater self  and my nation's interest, in the hopes of punishing our political and institutional systems. 

I think a lot of people will see the shallowness of the Dems with their really excessive positive and savior opinion with themselves in recent days. An slick advertisement and a gross misrepresentation  of the Democrat experiences for most of us and especially the poor. Hey, you are all heroes to each other, as this nation and many of us were grounded into the dirt for decades. Especially our children who aren't voting in masses, because they feel it the most and are sick and tired of our shit. There has got to be a great reckoning with the Democrat experience in the last 50 years before enough people vote for the revolution we are seek. You bet your ass monied politics is behind all of this. You and us have to talk about all you sins, how you failed us. What you did behind the scenes. And sincerely apologies to us all for all your sins. disclose it all!  Beg us for forgiveness. Trust that the good Americans will do the right thing this up coming elections.    

All you people are is playing the covid card and going full anti Trump. Your failures created Trump! We have to regain a sense of trust and integrity with our politicians and institutions. It is pitiful you think we are going vote for you because you had a tough life and grew up on the wrong side of the tracks, then joined the system that created this horrible world in front of us. Or our Republic and beautiful Constitution is lost for all eternity!

Do you even know what Trump did to us in the opening stages of his presidency. He threw so many bad things at us in the early stages of his presidency, the campaign itself...we never had a huge transparent reckoning with why the Clinton campaign failed and why large segments of our citizens were turning or becoming indifferent to the party? We never had a deep searching in our hearts souls with how the party failed. And you can bet as a result of the last series of republican presidencies, the party move massively towards to the right in order to compete with the republicans for votes and money. How did such a wounded candidate as Clinton become the contender?                        

It is time to call up the Nation Guard or Military to help out with our unprecedented up-coming covid national election!

Remember it is going to take a long to train everyone and set up the system. 

Our poor Hinsdale Police Department

What about the Lorry List? We extraordinarily protect our town police and government with tremendous secrecy. Ninety-nine percent of this is protect careers and the reputations of the local politicians. It doesn't serve the local population. We don't live in the greatest democracy on the face of the planet. We have very limited involvement of the town people because no transparency. We more live in a communist or right wing despot type of government. You have to question the quality of the local population to tolerate such a poor style of government. It is all about insider deals and superiority of commercial and business interest thugs' interest. A lot of money gets passed under the table. The commercial and business thugs run the show in small town America.  

We need a massive and historic reform of the Hinsdale police department. We got the crime level and 911 calls of Keene and now only three police officers. They are all new people at the Hinsdale police department who really don't know our town landscape. It is diarrhea of the exiting with the police officers in recent years.  The vast amount of 911 calls revolves around heavy drug use and the drug cartels of Hinsdale. We are the drug gang capital of Cheshire country based on the access to the Roosevelt interstate system. We are even using the very expensive NH state police to do some of the local policing. The police chief says the staties are too expensive, as the state police require two officers on the road at the same time because our town is so dangerous. I think we should pay each town police officer's compensation package and training at some $90 bucks a hour. We really have no control of the training with the new police officers. What the hell goes on the NH police training academy do? The training academy need a historic overhaul. Does the academy train police officers on choke holds? Does the academy have enough money to do this valuable work? Six weeks of new police training is pitiful. We are going to have diarrhea of the police department for a far as the eyes can see. The Hinsdale police chief tells me the select-people will give him all the money he needs. He is full of shit! He is drinking the Hinsdale cool aid already.

You get it, Hinsdale is always in a dire crisis with not having a police officers. They are getting less training at the academy. The chief goes to the academy begging them to reduce training, as he doesn't have enough police on the road in Hinsdale.    

  

City releases unredacted version of Keene police's use-of-force policy

“However, the City has concluded that public trust in the operation of the Keene Police Department, and trust by the public in their interactions with Keene police officers, is paramount,” the statement said. “Successful and peaceful interactions between law enforcement officers and the community that they serve is based first and foremost on mutual trust, and cannot be based on fear and suspicion.”



Read KPD's full use-of-force policy


The statement came a day after a virtual forum on racial injustice and public safety convened by Mayor George S. Hansel, at which two attendees called on the city to release the full policy.

Also on Monday, The Sentinel informed city officials it was preparing to publish a story about which local police departments had released their policies and asked whether the city would reconsider its stance on redactions. 

Many local police departments have released their full use-of-force policies to The Sentinel, though others have made redactions or withheld the policies entirely.

The city’s statement Tuesday noted that the death of George Floyd, a black man, in Minneapolis police custody last month “has prompted a necessary re-evaluation of the use of force by law enforcement agencies throughout the country. And the City of Keene Police Department is no exception.”

Russo said earlier this month that in reviewing the policy after an inquiry from The Sentinel, he noticed it technically still allowed “chokeholds,” even though officers have not been trained to use them for as long as he can remember. He said he was updating the policy. The version released Tuesday does not appear to mention the term.

The Sentinel originally asked for the city’s use-of-force policy last November. The redacted version was provided in December.

Dragon and City Attorney Thomas Mullins justified the redactions on the basis of exemptions to New Hampshire’s Right to Know Law that relate to law-enforcement techniques and procedures and disclosures that put someone's life or safety at risk.

In a March email, Dragon said "disclosing such techniques and procedures could assist individuals in taking steps to counter the necessary use of force in an effort to escape detention, and which may result in an unnecessary escalation of the force required for the officer to safely control the situation, thereby endangering the safety of all of the participants.”
The city had resisted releasing its policy as recently as earlier this month. “As to our entire policy, I ask you to think of it as releasing a team’s game plan to the opposition, who would do that?” Russo said in a June 2 email to The Sentinel, after a renewed request for the full policy. “We have nothing to hide, we are as transparent as officer and public safety allows.”

Our Electric System: Greatest Decline in Demand Since the Depression

Biggest Power Demand Plunge Since Great Depression Is Reshaping Markets

Slowdown is squeezing coal, buoying renewables and foreshadowing “grid of the future”

The global plunge in electricity demand will drag on long after nations lift stay-at-home orders, leading to the biggest annual drop since the Great Depression and fundamentally reshaping power markets.

As economies struggle to recover, worldwide electricity consumption will decline 5% in 2020, the most in more than eight decades, according to the International Energy Agency. In the U.S. last week, government analysts projected the nation’s biggest drop on record. And in Europe, analysts say a full recovery could take years.

The prolonged slowdown will increase economic pressure

The most financially threatened plants are the nuclear power plants. I wonder why they never mentioned that? 

on older, uneconomic power plants -- especially those that burn coal -- and help speed the transition toward cleaner and cheaper wind and solar. It will also contribute to the biggest annual decline in greenhouse gasses from energy ever recorded.

“This unprecedented drop in demand is foreshadowing the grid of the future,” said Steve Cicala, an economics professor at the University of Chicago. The world is “getting an early look at what high penetrations of renewables will do.”

Cascading Dam Failures in Michigan

Update

Safety advocates think a dam failure or cascading dam failure could lead to a meltdown in the USA.

*You don't see this very often in the USA. So one dam fails, this causes the next downstream dam to fail and so on. Right now its up to three dams have failed. This is way up North in Michigan. I can't see any nuclear plant yet that is threatened.

It reminds me of the upper Midwest spring flooding event that threaten Cooper and Fort Calhoun a few years back.     

Michigan governor orders thousands to evacuate after 2 dams failed, saying one city could be under '9 feet of water'

Updated 7:46 AM ET, Wed May 20, 20

By Rob Frehse, Kristina Sgueglia and Christina Maxouris, CNNCNN)Thousands are under evacuation orders in mid-Michigan Wednesday morning, a day after two dams failed following heavy rain across the state.

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer declared a state of emergency Tuesday night for Midland County after both the Edenville and Sanford dams breached and urged immediate evacuations.
"If you have a family member or loved one who lives in another part of the state, go there now," she said. "If you don't, go to one of the shelters that have opened across the county."

Residents should "seek higher ground" as far east and west of the Tittabawassee River as possible, according to the city of Midland's website.

"In the next 12 to 15 hours, downtown Midland could be under approximately 9 feet of water," Whitmer said Tuesday night in a news conference. "We are anticipating an historic high water level."

River Bend Is a Terrible Plant

I once got three special inspection of large breaker problems at this plant. It cascaded into three special inspection. Entergy and this plant is a very troublesome plant...particularly Entergy's western nuclear plants.  Entergy no longer has any presence in the Northeast.

NRC Begins Special Inspection at River Bend Nuclear Power Plant The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has begun a special inspection at the River Bend nuclear power plant to review circumstances related to the failure of five portable emergency diesel generators during testing. The plant, operated by Entergy Operations, is located in St. Francisville, La. The generators are used to supply power to plant systems in the event of a prolonged loss of off-site electrical power coupled with a failure of the permanently installed emergency generators. These portable generators were acquired as part of the facility’s safety enhancements mandated by the NRC following the 2011 accident at the Fukushima Dai-ichi facility in Japan. The three-member NRC team will develop a chronology of the test failures and evaluate the licensee’s causal analyses and the adequacy of corrective actions. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, they will complete most of their work remotely. An inspection report documenting the team’s findings will be publicly available within 45 days of the end of the inspection.

Is President Trump Trying To Commit Suicide With Hydroxychloroquine.

President Trump and his family is heading towards being a nationwide pariah for the rest of their lives. He is under extraordinary pressure very few humans can understand. He is a prime candidate for suicide. It is probably the only way his family is going to survive. I think he is committing suicided with Hydroxychloroquine.

You know him, he does everything in a big way!

Game this out, how does things play out if he accomplishes subside. 

The Outcome of China and the USA After coronavirus

I believe in the near future China and the USA are going to be great friends just like we are with the European countries. A 100 year alliance with China. And yep, just like neighbors, we all adapt with living with strange neighbors next door and become good friends. There is no fundamental reason with two completely different governments we couldn't become vast friends. Our fathers and grandfather set in motion our divergent countries...it doesn't have to stay that way. If it is all done for the good of the whole planet and benefits us all. We could police the world together and and set planet wide standards.   

You get it, this virus set in motion the idea all humans behave exactly alike. We now got tremendous new commonality between us. 

NH Predicts 424 Dead by August---Huge Spike in Deaths In Recent Days

Closely watched model now predicts more NH deaths

By Mark Hayward New Hampshire Union Leader
May 13, 2020 Updated 5 hrs ago

An independent health research center has sharply increased its predictions for deaths in New Hampshire, as the Granite State experiences its worst run of COVID-19 deaths.

Granite State deaths could run about 10 a day the rest of May and could go as high as 16, according to May 12 projections from the University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation. That is up significantly from last Friday, when the center projected an upper range of seven daily deaths.

On Wednesday, state officials announced eight more deaths, bringing the number to 150. The number of New Hampshire deaths from COVID-19 has jumped 35% in seven days.

“The mood is one of shock. It’s demoralizing,” said Brendan Williams, president of the New Hampshire Health Care Association, which represents nursing homes.

“We know we are going to have more fatalities, we know there are going to be a lot more COVID cases,” Gov. Chris Sununu said on Wednesday. “It is all about the ability of our health care system to manage the current pandemic.”

As of last week, 72% of New Hampshire deaths were associated with clusters, according to state data. Nearly all cluster outbreaks reported by the state have been in nursing homes.

The data also show that 94% of the COVID-19 deaths in New Hampshire were people 60 or older, and nearly two-thirds were people 85 or older.

“Anyone who’s elderly is at risk. There are elderly people in the grocery store,” Williams said.

“People say, ‘Only those over 60 have died, so why not reopen everything but for those over 60?’” Sununu said. “That’s because those under 60 can easily become a transmitter to a grandmother or someone at work, whoever it might be.”

The IHME frequently updates its predictions based on data from states and countries.

The IHME predicts 424 New Hampshire deaths by Aug. 1, with a possible high of 960. Also on Tuesday, the IHME increased its projections for deaths in the United States to 147,000.

Sununu said the number shows the reason the state has to be careful. But he said the IHME figure is only one of about a dozen projections.

Fermi Nuclear Plant Is Riddled With Coronavirus!!!

This is the first time a virus has disrupted the operation of a nuclear plant. This is a virus the world has never never seen before and it is killing millions of people world wide. The virus has killed 69,079 people in the USA. The NRC should send a big team to the plant to investigate the infections at the plant as this is a first time experience for a nuclear.  I would be mostly interested with how the coronavirus effected the nuclear operation department in the plants. 

Virus puts Fermi 2 refueling outage on hold

NEWPORT, Mich. — DTE Energy said it instituted “an extended safety stand down” at its Fermi 2 nuclear plant in northern Monroe County over the weekend because of the coronavirus outbreak there, one which will likely keep the plant idle much longer than expected and add to its operating expenses.

The plant was in the midst of its latest refueling and maintenance outage, which began March 21.

The industry standard for completing them has been a month in recent years. The safety stand down began Friday. It is unknown how many of the thousand or so DTE workers and specialized contractors are being paid to stay at area homes and motels until the stand down is lifted. The utility was able to resume some work on Monday, according to a statement issued by Stephen Tait, DTE spokesman.

Refueling and maintenance outages are among the busiest times at a nuclear plants. They happen on average once every 18 to 24 months, depending on the type of uranium in a nuclear plant’s reactor. Hundreds of tasks that can’t be done while the plants are operating are performing while the facilities are taken offline to be refueled. Each refueling consists of replacing a third of the reactor core with fresh steel-cladded, uranium-filled fuel assembles. 

DTE confirmed in early April that it had seen an unspecified number of coronavirus cases among workers assigned to perform tasks, but said it was able to continue moving forward by taking extra precautions.

Now, much of the work has been suspended until test results are completed on all personnel. Workers have agreed to do antibody testing, which requires a finger-prick blood sample, and viral testing, which requires a nasal swab, according to the company statement.

“Crews who maintain the facility in its current idled state remained on the job through the weekend to ensure the safety of the plant,” DTE’s statement reads. “The safety stand down allowed the site to conduct newly available novel coronavirus testing for regular and contractor employees at the facility.”...

Flattening The Curve In NYC

Some epidemiological people think 2 to 5% of our population have become infected by Covid. Almost 20,000 people have died over covid so far in the USA. Most of the PhD's think the infection rate is way lower than 5%. Theoretically if everyone gets infected in the USA, we would have 20 times the death rate as we have today. That would give us a death total of 400,000.        

***In my old age, I have to see evidence and understand the coronavirus curve. I have a very limited group of people who I will believe at face value. I am still really skeptical even with them. I will trust what they say, but I will attempt to verify the information and I carefully consider their history. But I won't attack them with criticism to their face, intensely probe with what they say is true. You know, I got to live with somebody and maintain human relationships.   

Based on the gov of New York, I now believe there is a curve for the coronavirus. It is really good news for the  USA. I see the curve flattening. The rate of increase is slowing down. This says nothing about when we will reach the apex, how will the decline of infections look like in the future.

This says nothing about when we can go back to work. At what national or local infection level can we go back to work. We will just have to carefully watch how the decline in infection plays out until more information becomes available. 

There is a kind of satisfaction in me now that we can at least trust some US gov officials.
