Katie Hobbs to the state house; solitary, poor, nasty, brutish and short Kari Lake to her own OAN show.

Hobbs/Hobbes joke in there, nice.  I think the Arizona GOP could enter that Hobbesian phase of bellum omnia contra omnes.  They will start eating their own young, at the very least.

http://www.vice.com/en/article/jgpndg/a-tidal-wave-of-rising-flood-water-has-forced-evacuations-in-central-nsw

Totally random event.

Bad luck and stuff.

That is all.

Much the same as in the 1950s.
The rivers are the life blood of rural towns and farms.
Some say the dam/river flow wasn't managed well...but so much rain in so little time...always spells disaster somewhere.

This time La Nina weather pattern, and some "negative Indian Ocean Dipole".
"A negative IOD results in cooler water near Africa and warmer water collecting near Australia, and clouds follow. This often occurs during La Nina, and pushes rain to Australia.
If both the IOD and La Nina are strong, Australia can experience heavy rainfall and consequently widespread flooding.

That is all.

Build homes and businesses in low--lying areas, one day in the course of history, they will get flooded..."as sure as duck eggs".
This time they were also washed away, or badly smashed up/destroyed.
Sad for the victims, most people in my rural towns are 'battlers".
'Katrina', and floods in Texas, hurricanes in Florida, towns destroyed in 'twister alley'...natural disasters and loss of life.
All nothing new.

That is a great thing about Battle Mountain, Nevada, is that there are no natural disasters there, no tornadoes, no hurricanes, no earthquakes, and the land is only $1,000 per acre. The only thing, Battle Mountain is cold in the winter and it snows in the winter. And gambling is legal in Nevada, so they can have fun and gamble, etc, Nevada is a fun state.

Salute,

Tony V.

The Native American Indian Tribe in Battle Mountain, Nevada, is the Te-Moak Tribe of Western Shoshone...

https://www.temoaktribe.com

As people decide to do Business in Battle Mountain then they can do trade with the Shoshone Tribe, and they can have the Shoshone Tribe as a connection in Battle Mountain.

Salute,

I only like looking at snow...'winter wonderlands' in movies, in Youtube videos.
Beautiful to look at. Also wonderful in America are the beautiful autumn leaves as the trees turn a rainbow of colours.
There sure are some pretty towns.

Living in snow is not for me. You shovel all the snow off your driveway, go to bed, wake in the morning and there's 3ft of snow back on the driveway.

He didn't miss Trump.
It should be very clear now to the Republican Party that they need a new Presidential candidate for 2024...and new policies.
I'd be going with "Free healthcare for all American citizens".

Then you would be a Democrat. And have zero, no, less than zero chance of being nominated for anything as a Republican.

You could not get elected proposing such a thing. No matter what party you belonged to.

We will have universal healthcare within five years. It will be our reward for forcing the fascists out of their nests within the republican party into the ocean to be chummed by the rocks and waves.

The USA is nice if you have good schools and trade.

We need to make our people wise, and then give them trade.

Like the Business School at Pepperdine.

And the coal miners in Kentucky need great schools.

The schools are diseased, T.

Meanwhile BBC reports 128 "election deniers" won their Congressional seats while 46 lost.  The real truth has to be given by a foreign network - so funny,
