I just finished speaking, by telephone, with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia. The call lasted approximately one hour and 15 minutes. We discussed the attack on Russia’s docked airplanes, by Ukraine, and also various other attacks that have been taking place by both sides. It was a good conversation, but not a conversation that will lead to immediate Peace. President Putin did say, and very strongly, that he will have to respond to the recent attack on the airfields. We also discussed Iran, and the fact that time is running out on Iran’s decision pertaining to nuclear weapons, which must be made quickly! I stated to President Putin that Iran cannot have a nuclear weapon and, on this, I believe that we were in agreement. President Putin suggested that he will participate in the discussions with Iran and that he could, perhaps, be helpful in getting this brought to a rapid conclusion. It is my opinion that Iran has been slowwalking their decision on this very important matter, and we will need a definitive answer in a very short period of time!
The screw worm wall has already failed. Screw worm infected cattle have been detected ~1200 miles northwest of the isthmus in Panama where the screw worm control “wall” is implemented.
In a competent administration, resources would be deployed in alliance with our allies in Mexico and Central America to eradicate it and re-establish the “wall” where it can be maintained at minimum expense. There have been outbreaks before and that’s what was done to successfully re-establish the line. However, the T**** administration is NOT competent and won’t spend a billion dollars to prevent the total loss of the $110B US cattle industry or $60B US dairy industry, not to mention that it would require coordination with Mexico, and we know that’s not going to happen.
Now buying tickets (just another payment to please the overlord) and actually attending will be two completely different things. Subscribers will only show if they believe their monarch will be in attendance. (Has even gone to a performance since he took over as ‘chair’?)
Trump administration officials delayed and redacted a government forecast because it predicts an increase in the nation’s trade deficit in farm goods later this year, according to two people familiar with the matter.
I can’t believe trump wrote that – it’s just not in his style! The words are (mostly) capitalized correctly, with no random fully uppercase words, it’s not over promising, and isn’t self-aggrandizing nor directly threatening anyone.
Of course it does have a lot of unnecessary detail (by telephone, you say? Oh! President Vladimir Putin of Russia, thanks for clearing that up) and reads a bit like a high school student trying to pad out a paper to 500 words.
JFC and here I thought we had advanced medically enough in the developed world that this was mostly relegated to period dramas. Is America great again yet?
Oh, governments will still use cloud services. Cloud providers can provide government IT services on public cloud for things that aren’t sensitive to national security, or parallel airgapped private clouds for things that are (think military and such). But regardless of if you’re on a public or private cloud, these services still need IT people to manage them even if they aren’t physically in the data centers touching hardware. Whether you’re NPS or DoD, you still need your hosted email and sites/services to work.
Because the threat of homelessness keeps everyone else in line. And if you treat the homeless with any amount of dignity, that degrades from the threat value.
