Armed militias on US streets as racial divisions widenWill Pavia, New YorkMonday September 07 2020, 12.01am, The TimesHeavily armed black militias marched on the Kentucky Derby and white protesters carrying guns clashed with Black Lives Matter activists as violence erupted in cities across America.A right-wing group led by a man known as the Angry Viking and a black brigade that calls itself the Not F***ing Around Coalition manoeuvred through the streets of Louisville on Saturday during what was regarded as the strangest Derby Day in history.
The UK / Japan trade deal makes state subsidy commitments that have to be honoured and may be more onerous than those the EU wants. So why is the UK planning to break the law on this issue if it isn’t deliberate and pointless provocation?It's always seemed bizarre that the right to provide state aid should be so important to a Conservative government that it wishes to break the law to secure it. So bizarre, in fact, that it was hard to believe that this was the real reason for the dispute with Brussels in the last week. It always seemed possible that this issue was a major diversion created to generate a desired rift. Now a report from the Financial Times provides evidence to support this alternative view. It says:CitarThe UK’s new trade deal with Japan commits it to tougher restrictions on state aid than the ones it is currently offering the EU in the Brexit talks, potentially undermining its negotiating position with Brussels.In the bilateral UK-Japan agreement announced in principle on Friday, London and Tokyo have agreed to replicate the restrictions on subsidies in the EU-Japan deal that went into effect last year. That agreement prohibits the governments from indefinitely guaranteeing the debts of struggling companies or providing an open-ended bailout without a clear restructuring plan in place.By contrast, the UK has repeatedly told the EU that it must have total freedom over state aid after the end of the Brexit transition period with complete autonomy over future subsidy decisions, subject to WTO rules.In the article there is discussion on whether the commitments given to Japan are of greater or lesser extent than those already suggested for the UK/EU agreement and in fairness the point is left open: the claim can be made both ways.But what is clear is that now that the UK has made the commitment it has to Japan it cannot much change what it offers the EU.And in that case what is this whole debacle for, unless it is part of a plan to ensure that we descend into chaos, as I have suggested?

https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2020/08/bill-gates-nuclear-venture-plans-reactor-to-complement-solar-windBill Gates' nuclear venture plans reactor to complement solar, wind power boom- The Bill Gates-founded nuclear energy venture, TerraPower LLC, is hoping to build small advanced nuclear power stations.- The plan is to use the energy generated during periods when solar and wind power are low because of weather conditions.- The 345-megawatt plants would be cooled by liquid sodium and cost about $1 billion each.A nuclear energy venture founded by Bill Gates said Thursday it hopes to build small advanced nuclear power stations that can store electricity to supplement grids increasingly supplied by intermittent sources like solar and wind power.The effort is part of the billionaire philanthropist’s push to help fight climate change, and is targeted at helping utilities slash their emissions of planet-warming gases without undermining grid reliability.TerraPower LLC, which Gates founded 14 years ago, and its partner GE Hitachi Nuclear Energy, plan to commercialize stations called Natrium in the United States later this decade, TerraPower’s President and Chief Executive Chris Levesque said.The project has not previously been reported.Levesque said the companies are seeking additional funding from private partners and the U.S. Energy Department, and that the project has the support of PacifiCorp, owned by billionaire Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway, along with Energy Northwest and Duke Energy.If successful, the plan is to build the plants in the United States and abroad, Levesque said.By 2050 “we would see hundreds of these reactors around the world, solving multiple different energy needs,” Levesque said.The 345-megawatt plants would be cooled by liquid sodium and cost about $1 billion each.Nuclear power is a top source of virtually emissions-free electricity, but many plants are shutting in the United States because of high costs and competition from solar and wind. Critics of advanced nuclear have also warned that smaller nuclear is even more expensive than conventional.The new plants, however, are designed to complement a renewable power because they will store the reactor power in tanks of molten salt during days when the grid is well supplied. The nuclear power could be used later when solar and wind power are low due to weather conditions.Molten salt power storage has been used at thermal solar plants in the past, but leaks have plagued some of the projects.Levesque said the Natrium design would provide more consistent temperatures than a solar plant, resulting in less wear and tear.Gates, chairman of TerraPower’s board, said in a statement that Natrium innovation was “extremely difficult” but its team had “the expertise, commercial experience, and the resources necessary” to develop viable reactors.Levesque said Natrium plants would first be built in the United States and other developed countries, but could later spread to countries that do not have yet have nuclear power.Nonproliferation experts have warned that advanced nuclear projects could become targets for attack because their uranium fuel would be more highly enriched and more easily converted to fissile material than conventional fuel.Levesque said the plants would reduce proliferation risks because they reduce overall nuclear waste.Gates had initially hoped to build an experimental nuclear plant near Beijing with state-owned China National Nuclear Corp. But last year, TerraPower was forced to seek new partners after the Trump administration restricted nuclear deals with China.---Energía verde, verde nuclear (2). Vimos cómo los 'ecologistas' (?) habían cambiado su opinión con respecto de la energía nuclear. Seguramente este grupo se ha hecho eco del sentir de los 'ecologistas' y ha decidido darles el gusto. Parece que esto se va a promover. Sds.

La Comunidad de Madrid avalará la hipoteca de 5.000 jóvenes para la compra de una viviendaLa presidenta regional Isabel Díaz Ayuso anunciará hoy la medida en su primer Debate del Estado de la región que comienza hoy en la Parlamento AutonómicoAsí, la Comunidad de Madrid va a destinar 12 millones de euros para avalar al menos 5.000 hipotecas de jóvenes madrileños de hasta 35 años de edad que den el paso de comprar su primera vivienda, pero carezcan de los ahorros previos suficientes para acceder a un crédito hipotecario.Entre ellas esta el programa Primera Vivienda, donde la Comunidad avalará la adquisición de casas para jóvenes, que deberán reunir una serie de requisitos. Así, la tipología de viviendas que se compren deben ser de dos o tres habitaciones, con superficies de entre 80 y 90 metros cuadrados, y con un precio que oscile entre los 150.000 y 400.000 euros de valor del inmueble en el mercado inmobiliario, bien sea de nueva construcción o de segunda mano.
Con un aval de 2.400€ en una hipoteca de 400.000€ ¿qué van a comprarse? ¿el buzón y el timbre de la puerta?
Cita de: el malo en Septiembre 14, 2020, 12:07:50 pmCon un aval de 2.400€ en una hipoteca de 400.000€ ¿qué van a comprarse? ¿el buzón y el timbre de la puerta? Es propaganda. Propaganda muy muy mala. Que a poco que pienses un minuto, casi consigue lo contrario de lo que pretende. Lo mismo que las inmo-noticias de los telediarios (que parecen redactadas por las mismas personas, independientemente del canal).Por cierto, ¿alguno conoce a alguien, aunque sea de oídas, que solicitara la "ayuda" para pagar el alquiler? sospecho que fue un fracaso estrepitoso. No se ha vuelto a saber más.
