Perhaps we should look to see how other countries are transitioning their power grids.   Solar farms.  Wind.  Hydro-electric harnessing waves.  Advancements on fusion.  And yes, nuclear.  Lots of fascinating developments out there if you search for them.

Pivoting back to coal will save millions of Americans jobs.  Coal doesn't kill like nuclear reactors or windmills.  Coal is infinite and doesn't fail unlike solar which doesn't work when it's dark out.

Quote from: MU82 on September 24, 2025, 10:54:36 AMSome Major League Baseball fans have arrived at ballparks this month to find their digital tickets have not only disappeared, but have been resold on popular platforms such as SeatGeek and StubHub.

In a statement acknowledging the problem to The Athletic, the league said that "bad actors" have been able to access fans' tickets on a platform used by all 30 MLB teams — the Ballpark app — because of passwords scammers obtained or deciphered through other sources.

https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6644767/2025/09/19/mlb-digital-ticket-theft-ballpark-app/?source=athletic_moneycall_newsletter&campaign=14928569&userId=3738391

This happened to me on Labor Day.  The day before I game I got an email saying my tickets had been forwarded to someone. 

I tried to go on the Ballpark app and recall the transfer but it didn't work.  I called Major League Baseball support through the Ballpark app and after an hour on hold they had no information at all and told me to call SeatGeek since I purchased the tickets through them.  After an hour on hold with SeatGeek they told me it's been happening to many people through the Ballpark App and to call the Cubs directly.  SeatGeek gave me a very thorough explanation of how everything is setup.

The Cubs ticket office was closed Sunday so I called the day of the game when they opened at 10:00 am.  They immediately answered and transferred the tickets back to my account.

Long story short, if your tickets get stolen call the team directly.  MLB is useless.

From the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:

Cindy Rehberg, an associate principal at West Side Elementary School in Elkhorn, was falsely accused by a right-wing influencer of posting that slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk "deserves everything he got."

But she didn't make that post.

Calls immediately flooded the school. Some people also found cellphone numbers for Rehberg and her husband. Invoicemails and texts, they told her she deserved to be dragged behind a truck or shot. Most of the messages were filled with expletives. One text contained her home address and a single word: "Run."
