This morning, I ran into a neighbor, a nice young man in his mid-thirties. We exchanged the usual talk of, “How’s it going?” and I noticed he wasn’t his usual jovial, upbeat self. He just said he was dealing with a lot. So we said goodbye, wishing each other well.

Later in the afternoon, my husband and I are at the movies and he tells me that he just ran into the same neighbor and says, “Guess what.”   Continue reading “Bitcoin – A cautionary tale”

Climate change predictions making alarming claims on Earth’s future have been challenged by a new study. Suggestions the planet’s surface will warm by 5° Celsius by 2100 are not realistic, according to a team of scientists.

Frightening climate change predictions by the UN would be void if the group from the University of Exeter is correct. Their probe into greenhouse gases pushing up the planet’s temperatures found possible end-of-century outcomes to be only half the range found by others.  Continue reading “End of world?

Inside a district courtroom on Jan. 16, a lawyer for multiple media outlets argued why information pertaining to 1 October is crucial to helping Las Vegas heal, but the lawyer for Metro Police said they can’t release any information because there are still suspects being investigated.    Continue reading “Metro lawyers: There are additional suspects in 1 October”
