  1. Wife of Iowa Republican Candidate Voted [for her husband] 23 Times [in a single election] [Click] As well as multiple other election law violations. I wonder if that qualifies her for deportation after she serves her sentence.

  2. It seems that electric vehicle battery packs are about to decrease considerably in price. [Click] Decreased use of lithium, manganese, and cobalt as well as improved low-temperature performance, and the US will manufacture almost all it needs to boot.

    1. Fresno crews make room in ponding basins with rain on the way [Click] The ponding basins provide flood control in the winter, and ground water recharge during the dry season.

      The water level in the river below our house appears to have dropped a bit-- less than a foot, maybe 6 or 8 inches. No threat to us.

    1. Funny, that. Used to be it was Democrats who were caught with their hands in the cookie jar and such. Guess Republicans have taken corruption to heart. :P I can't wait for the party to just get on with it and disintegrate already.

    1. I haven't seen that news so I don't know what it means. Are they talking about assessments? For what types of property? And only a third of the county is reassessed each year. Or are they saying one of the taxing bodies has drastically I increased its rates? Which one?

    2. Thanks. This is about the city of Chicago, which saw reassessment this year. My trassnent is a year or two off. And more importantly, homrowners' bills went up only 8%.
