http://fox8.com/2018/04/04/firstenergy-says-power-plants-will-stay-open-during-bankruptcy/

Excerpt from the above article: At the time of these shutdowns, AEP officials were trying to comply with pending Obama administration environmental regulations, specifically the Mercury and Air Toxics Standards and the Clean Power Plan.

I used to work for a company that was bought by First Energy and then sold about 8 years later when they finally figured out they couldn't squeeze the same profits out of our customers as they could squeeze out of their electric customers. After talking to some of their employees and bean counters I found out they run on a 40-50% profit margin, anything less is unacceptable...

That's a lot of profit. If someone can buy the nukes cheap enough, they can turn a profit on them. They wouldn't have any legacy retiree benefits to pay, such as retiree health care. The people that bought shut down steel mills ran them at a profit.

That looks like a nice way to train them, but I don't think that it's completely flawless either. After all, how is one safely supposed to retrieve a gun from the shooter because they made it seem like it was possible. And second of all, fleeing from the scene instead of trying to stay hidden probably isn't the greatest idea either because it alerts the shooter where his or her target is and therefore a better of chance of getting shot.
 
It might be worthwhile taking along a battery powered detector after what happened in Mexico. They only cost about $50.

Me too. I mean I hope you don't get it. I live in Ohio so I don't have to worry about it luckily. I'm not sure what state you're from though. Don't worry, I already know that you don't want to tell me and that's fine, but I'm praying that you'll stay healthy.

Wow. I hope they put a stop to the violence stuff at bus stops and other places.




I know. The news story about the ten year old kid who accidentally set the house on fire was pretty upsetting too though. You would think that somebody would have taught him not to play with matches. By the way I had to do a little bit of editing. The stove got turned on they didn't forget to turn it off.
 
I am. I thought spring was here :/

http://fox8.com/2018/02/27/i-team-exclusive-video-cop-wont-help-other-officers-with-suspect/

I don't have a problem with this cop. It was a man in mental crisis having some problems and they already had 3 or 4 guys on him.

I think the cop was stupid for posting anti-cop videos. I would have to guess that he doesn't't want a job anymore.



Oh really? I didn't know that you were a fellow Ohioan lol and I remember when I posted that. I totally agree with you by the way.

Also to keep matches out of reach of young children.
