Welcome to summer, Save Jerseyans.
We’re mercifully coming off of an epic heat wave. The only surprise is that some folks seem… surprised. It’s hot out there this time of year (like it always is), but our liberal friends love to seize the opportunity to externalize their fears about human-induced global warming climate.
The truth? There’s a growing consensus among scientists that variations in the sun’s activity levels have had a much greater impact on Earth’s weather than carbon emissions. Which makes logical sense, right? Even for those of us with only a cursory knowledge of the attendant scientific principles. We’re living in relatively close proximity (150 million kilometers on average, depending on Earth’s orbit) from the solar system’s largest furnace. Some of the sun’s flares give off millions of times more energy than atomic bombs, so I don’t think it’s a stretch to assume the sun can do more to affect the planet’s temperature than SUVs!
At least until liberals figure out how to use Kelo to acquire the sun or, alternatively, limit its output with EPA regulations, Earth’s weather patterns may be largely out of our control.
Let’s worry about something we can control? Like the sorry state of our country’s power grid…
As of yesterday morning, there were still 20,000+ New Jerseyans without power after last Friday’s thunderstorms. It’s been over one week, yet thousands of families and businesses still don’t have electric light or air conditioning. Granted, these issues were largely cause by infrastructure damage (in other words, not “usage” related). But it got me thinking: what if they were? Would we be ready? Both for repairs and the consequences, too?
It’s no secret that our nation’s aging energy infrastructure is buckling under the strain of increased domestic electricity consumption that is mostly attributable to standard population growth. Bill Richardson (hardly a far-right alarmist!) once quipped that the United States is “a superpower with a third-world grid.” The Department of Energy has estimated that the costs associated with brownouts, inefficiencies and interruptions in the U.S. power grid translate to an average $500 power tax on each and every American.
And what about if the worst happens, like an electromagnetic pulse (or EMP) attack somewhere in the American heartland’s atmosphere? A nuclear weapon detonated in outer space could emit a massive shockwave of electricity capable of destroying electrical circuits and transformers from coast to coast. North America’s computers, military technology, cell phones, critical hospital systems, refrigeration systems, GPS devices, and even household appliances… all rendered useless in a matter of seconds.
At this point, you should be asking what the federal government is doing about any of this. Are upgrades planned? Defensive systems scheduled for installation? Crisis plans put into place?
All indicators suggest the answer is jack squat, Save Jerseyans.
Election 2012 is a time to re-prioritize, Save Jerseyans. New Jerseyans are presently steeling themselves for a $4,126 ObamaCare tax hike on January 1, 2013; isn’t it time for voters everywhere to reevaluate whether there are MUCH better (and more appropriate) uses for that kind of money? Like protecting our economy from a catastrophic power collapse that could plunge our country – and the world – into an epic recession or (if the brownout last for a more than a few days) a new dark age.
I'm right with you on the man-made global warming hoax, Matt. I read somewhere today that the UN wants to tax billionaires to pay for global warming mitigation and impose a worldwide carbon tax that everyone would end up paying. God forbid the UN gets that much power. By the way, where were all the climate changers when in 2010/2011 winter we had to shovel 4 1/2 feet of snow and it was a much colder than normal winter? Same for this past winter in Alaska, and Europe. Colder. As for the grid, the economy is probably going to have to be in better condition before that can be addressed.
You shouldn't take for granted that your feet have not changed since the last time you bought shoes. Children tend to change shoe sizes frequently. Actually your feet may continue to change even when you are an adult. A store that sells basketball shoes can give you an accurate measurement. There should not be any sense of a loose or insecure fit when you try your basketball shoes on. If your shoe fits loosely in any way you need to keep looking.

Now that you know the several suggestions from this article, your next pair of basketball shoes should fit you just right. Your shoes should be so comfortable when you are playing, they feel like an extension of your body.
