Did this get noted earlier?
http://donsurber.blogspot.com/2017/12/tax-bill-says-drill-baby-drill.html
The Republican Tax Cut and Jobs Act of 2017 will allow oil exploration in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge. ... Drilling would be confined to 2,000 of those acres or 1% of 1% of the refuge. In other words 99.99% the refuge would not be affected. ... An agreement by House and Senate negotiators would open Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to drilling, while preserving tax credits for wind power and other clean energy. The bill also would extend a tax credit of up to $7,500 for purchases of plug-in electric vehicles such as the Tesla Model 3 and Chevrolet Bolt.

I was intrigued by the "zero knowledge proof" mechanism being used to verify a transaction as being legitimate without revealing any other information.

It would be useful to "hide" the identity of a seller or buyer in what is, otherwise, a transparent market.

[Captain Hate]

With fracking do we really need ANWR?

rich, a buddy of mine spinning records at a local watering hole kept me away from a Beer Advocate Belgian Christmas Ale Style group tasting. In the spirit of solidarity I had a Cleveland Brewing East 185th Christmas Ale, Fat Heads Holly Jolly Christmas Ale, and Barking Dog's 12 Dogs of Christmas Ale.

They weren't bad but not a Belgian level experience. The music was outstanding, playing nothing but 45s including some early Albert Collins and Roy Buchanan.

I'm jealous of this sample. I've got some 90 minute and Celebration. Should have sprung for a Marzen and maybe a Hefe but this will have to do.

>>>With fracking do we really need ANWR?<<<

We can apply the fracking technology to the perafrost Alaskan fields. I think I had mentioned it previously, but the Zero's admin ending the USGS Arctic Survey and withdrawl from the Arctic Circle really empowered Russian advances in the Arctic and China's advances in the South China Sea.

if that makes sense, it calls for more beer.

rich, they had Celebration on tap for $3 but it's a bit too hoppy for me, even though they jack around with the formula every year.

Nytol.

[rich]

it would depend on who owns what at what depth.

Alaska uses a severence tax (among other taxes), which is nearly Russian in it complication, such that, better producing fields are taxed higher than less productive fields. Then Gov Palin tried to rationalize the tax structure, but the ole' boys club knew better.

All while California produces more oil than Alaska.

Rich,

I've done the customer service bit a couple of times and had other jobs that encompassed it in part.

Between that and being a cold-calling broker I hate talking on the phone.

When I was working in market data I'd have users call me about a problem and rather than spend twenty minutes on the phone with them syncing up, I'd tell them that I'd be there in five minutes to talk them in person. Got great "word of mouth" out of that.

One of the things I learned in business management was that in designing a job you had to match "authority" with "responsibilities", if you don't you set up employees up for failure and frustration.

An enlightened firm would treat customer service as a customer advocate program, i. e., you work for the customer not the employer.

I'm guessing here, but I would think that it does allow slant drilling.

With slant drilling you could produce more oil with a smaller footprint. And claim to be doing less intrusion in the wilderness area.

[Barbara]

Thanks for the information on oil. Let's hope that this change in policy re: Anwar is the camel's nose under the tent.

It may be that the seemingly draconian limits were set in anticipation of the inevitable lawsuits by the eco-terrorists.

That's my thoughts as well. It's said that the Canadians have been slant drilling in that vicinity for years.

In which Andrew Klavan admits he was wrong about Trump.

It's interesting to me that Trump is seen as a loudmouth braggadocio. Certainly in the campaign, particularly at rallies, he was a bit loud but I didn't find it offensive. It's the natural reaction one has speaking before a large crowd. The bragging is part of the act, of course.

I am glad Klavan can at least admit he was wrong. I always liked his commentary and I hated to see him fall into the bitter trap of the NeverTrump people.

ExDem,

Your 01:45 is wonderfully informative and could not be more encouraging in helping me form a positive opinion of IG Horowitz. Many thanks for that. Very valuable nuggets tied together beautifully and I hope it effects other JOMer's similarly. I can't imagine a more motivating reason for Horowitz to do the right thing, than righteously taking revenge at being malevolently dissed and professionally abused by snotty Eric Holder.

Rich,

OK. Nothing wrong with blue collar. I didn't get my college degree until I was in my thirties. I was pissed that people wouldn't recognize native intelligence without the damn thing.

I was a high school drop out. Bored out of my mind. Went to work full-time in a gas station working sixty hour weeks as a sixteen year old. Two dollars an hour, no taxes taken out and no time to spend it.

One thing I learned in the working world - if my boss had my back 100% - I owed him full loyalty. And I did so. If he didn't, I didn't owe him squat.

I'm sure that 99.99% of the people here and elsewhere for that matter agree with you and have had experiences just like or similar to yours. As one who has been there and done that I can only say, focus on what you want. That's why you're there to earn a salary. Everyone would most likely wish to have a vested interest in their job, but life does not always work out that way.

The years go quickly, and I'm glad that I can look back at all the struggle with pride that I stood for something, accomplished what I set out to do, had great experiences that I wouldn't otherwise have had, and did the best damn job that anyone could do. Remember that retirement is just a step away when you can say, "Free at last! Free at last! Thank God Almighty, I'm free at last."

Gentlejim,

I had, eventually, two people working for me in market data at different times. I always had their backs. One was a young black female. Very personable and super smart.

A research analyst complained about her and the director of research called her to meet about that. She told me and I said we'll go down together. The complaint was about something my underling said. I told the research director that I would have said the same damn thing to his analyst.

We went back and forth. I had a good relationship with him because he was my sponsor for the CFA program and I always treated his analysts like gold because I was interested in their work.

Long story short. It was a newly hired analyst. There was an air of my young protege being "uppity". I called him on it. Do you want me to go to HR or do want to teach your analyst some manners?

My protege thought she was in danger of losing her job and was amazed that I fully backed her up.

Truth was I loved her. She was an amazing young woman. And I lusted after her, but she was my subordinate so I kept it to myself.

I don't understand why people hit on subordinates. Lack of impulse control?

I previewed this before posting and I'm maybe supplying TMI. But it's real, and I still don't understand why people go after subordinates. My perceived "happy ending" just doesn't outweigh the possible angst if it's not reciprocated.

Rich,

You want either to beat the bastards or get "laid-off". Fired, if for cause, prevents you from getting unemployment insurance.

Although you can fight that, by showing bias, as I have done in the past.

Whatever you do. Update your resume. See if you can find some headhunters in your industry. Start networking.

Do whatever you have to do.

In the 70's I worked for INMAC, a company that supplied all kinds of things to the mini-computer market. (That meant anything, but IBM)

All kinds of companies had vets working for them. Most of them retired. They were working, interfacing with the military, mostly as technical advisors.

They were collecting an armed forces pension, earning credit towards a corporate pension, and contributing to a Social Security payout.

They were known as triple-dippers.

For years in the service, being underpaid, they made up for it in big time.

[jim nj]

Gantt charts. He uses Gantt charts.

Does anybody here know what Gantt charts are?

They're used to project timelines in project management. I used them for market data projects. I had to constantly revise them due to screw ups. If I was waiting for telcom lines to come, and they didn't, I had to revive my Gantt chart. If the computer servers didn't come in on time I had to revise my timeline. Ad infinitum.

They're used in building construction where you''re trying to track the GC and multiple sub-contractors.

Trump would know Gantt charts. You scream at sub-contractors who can't keep up. In building, time is money, because you've borrowed to build. So you talk to another sub, who says he can keep to the timeline and you fire the first sub for incompetence.

He sues you. You bring the Gantt chart into court based on his info. You show that he failed to produce on time in schedule per the Gantt chart. Case dismissed.

One of things I shall miss most when I stop practicing is the easy outlet it gives me for my "service" and social needs!
Terrified people about to be rendered comatose, as well as the tormented nursing staff, give me plenty of opportunities each day to "serve." Mainly lots of eye rolling about administrators and regulations IRT the nurses' issues. It is getting harder by the hour, as practicing medicine becomes more like Dilbert's cubicle existence with morons in charge every day.

HSAs and catastrophic insurance will turn it around, as well as do that famous thing : Bend the curve.

Look at this:

September — Steele, acting on the direction of Fusion GPS, meets with reporters at The New York Times, The Washington Post, CNN, The New Yorker and Yahoo! News to provide briefings about the dossier.

OK. so if this was a serious security breech, why was Steele meeting with reporters? Why did Fusion GPS take it upon themselves to direct him to do so? Did Steele tell the reporters what to say? I notice Fox and the Washington Examiner were not invited. Why not?

Any doubts about the media being our enemies is pretty much dispelled by this event.

I've seen three UFOs. I have the photographic evidence from one of the sightings and have shared the pics with one JOMer. I'm not claiming that either were little green men, just objects moving well outside the known flight envelope, and not comporting to any known physical parameters, including sound.

The second incident was scary as [redacted] and I observed it for at least twenty seconds as it hovered silently below cloud level. It accelerated away at a before-that-moment impossible-to-imagine speed once my heat signature came completely clear from the eave of my porch.

If anyone would like to see the photo, please email me at batcanalytic at yahoo dot com.
