I wonder if winds could be generally directed to help drought stricken regions by shaping the sides of mountains. Winds are currents. Currents can be influenced by obstacles in their way, especially by the shape of those obstacles. So if mountain sides were carved so that it directs the wind in specific directions, it could also direct rain patterns that way as well.

Sometimes I think Sci-Fi movie producers want to show a vision of the future that’s going to be awesome, but they have no story that’s going to attract movie watchers. Imagine what it would be like if we never aged past 25 years old. That would be awesome. In this movie, they introduce this dystopian plot (work and make money or die) just to give the vision a twist and create a thriller out of it in order to attract more people to spend money watching, and also throw in Justin Timberlake.
An alternative version of this vision could be less dystopian, and more drama filled. Imagine if your (or most) parents never aged past 25 years old. Can you imagine the skyrocketing drama with relationships? Divorce rates would be much higher. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fdadZ_KrZVw

I’m glad that Rob McKenna lost the election to become governor of Washington. He argued in favor of suppressing the right to vote.

Remember how the GOP warned everyone that President Obama’s policies would destroy this country?
President Obama reminded a crowd about the wild predictions from his critics about the economy on a day where the stock market closed above 18,000. We found the video. Ari Melber talks with Eugene Robinson, Susan Crabtree, and Blake Zeff.

Do you believe that there is a Satan, a devil? Do you believe that a malevolent force has the power to influence the minds of people all over the world at the same time? That is a god-like power. If a being has that kind of power, omni-telepathy, wouldn’t you call that being a god? That is an amazing power – to invisibly connect directly into the amygdalas of nearly everyone on the planet, and to coordinate the manipulation with billions of humans at the same time.
If there is a Satan with that kind of power, then the statement that there is one true god of monotheistic belief is wrong.
