If the Navy's inertial mass reduction patent works: — Aircraft don't need wings — Spacecraft don't need rockets — Submarines move without propellers — Vehicles accelerate with almost zero energy Every form of transportation is obsolete overnight. Patent US10,322,827. Free to read. Right now.

Fernandez’s was a throwing error. As for Jasson, it’s more of the same.

This is what I imagine every day in Hell would be like 😂

It’s going to be interesting to see what the narrative is for Caballero in May. He’s never really gotten a real shot at being a full-time player at a single position until now. With the Rays he had 235 ABs and went .226/.327/.311 last year. That’s about the same amount of ABs he’ll have when Volpe returns. Hardly representative but we’ll see.

New York Times reporter is furious that the public gets to know the truth…. Peter Baker is calling for the government to NOT declassify documents….let that sink in.

Bear Stearns didn't collapse because of "market failure"—it collapsed because the Federal Reserve spent decades pumping artificial credit into the economy, distorting risk calculations across Wall Street. When reality finally hit in March 2008, the investment bank that had gorged itself on mortgage-backed securities became the first major casualty of a crisis entirely manufactured by central banking. The Fed had held interest rates at absurdly low levels following the dot-com crash, driving investors desperate for yield into increasingly risky assets. Bear Stearns leveraged itself 35-to-1 by 2007, a ratio that would be suicidal in any honest market but seemed rational when cheap money flowed like water. The bank's hedge funds collapsed in summer 2007 after betting heavily on subprime mortgages—investments that only made sense in the Fed's artificially stimulated housing bubble. When Bear's stock price plummeted from $172 in 2007 to $30 in March 2008, the firm faced a classic bank run. But instead of allowing creative destruction to work—letting bad actors fail and good capital reallocate efficiently—the Fed orchestrated a bailout disguised as a sale to JPMorgan Chase for $10 per share. They sweetened the deal with a $29 billion taxpayer backstop for Bear's toxic assets. This intervention set the catastrophic precedent for everything that followed: AIG, Lehman, TARP, quantitative easing, and over a decade of zero interest rate policy. The Fed transformed a necessary market correction into a systemic crisis by preventing price discovery and moral hazard from functioning. Bear Stearns should have been a cautionary tale about central banking's inevitable boom-bust cycles. Instead, it became the opening act for the greatest monetary experiment in human history.

Carlos Estévez allowed 6 ER in his blown save today. His velocity is down 5 MPH from last season. Yikes.

Germany's policies were worse than you state. They did not close the nuclear plants, many countries have closed and then restarted nuclear plants. Germany destroyed them. Germany is not just returning to coal. They mine lignite coal, the lowest of the coals, with the least energy and highest emissions. All while refusing to harvest natural gas in shale deposits.
