New York men who assaulted police on Jan. 6 sentenced to 44 months – The Washington Post
Text messages obtained by the FBI showed that Mattice and Mault planned for violence on Jan. 6, initially expecting resistance from antifa. They texted family members during the mayhem, and then congratulated each other in the days after the riot, which temporarily halted the certification of the presidential election.

In a Twist, Old Coal Plants Help Deliver Renewable Power. Here’s How. – The New York Times
Across the country, aging and defunct coal-burning power plants are getting new lives as solar, battery and other renewable energy projects, partly because they have a decades-old feature that has become increasingly valuable: They are already wired into the power grid.
The miles of high-tension wires and towers often needed to connect power plants to customers far and wide can be costly, time consuming and controversial to build from scratch. So solar and other projects are avoiding regulatory hassles, and potentially speeding up the transition to renewable energy, by plugging into the unused connections left behind as coal becomes uneconomical to keep burning.
In Illinois alone, at least nine coal-burning plants are on track to become solar farms and battery storage facilities in the next three years. Similar projects are taking shape in Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, North Dakota, Nebraska, Minnesota and Maryland. In Massachusetts and New Jersey, two retired coal plants along the coast are being repurposed to connect offshore wind turbines to the regional electrical grids.

Possible Project Logo
Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better
Ok, this collage keeps giving me 5 separate images when I click on the jpg in Media, despite having saved it as one image.

Ok, so it will let me do an insert, but I cannot seem to get the link url from WP media. Interesting. But, as a Project logo, how is it?
What do you think our world would look like if we really tried to build an empathetic society?
I look forward to hearing your opinions on this matter, Thoughtful Readers.
We can really Do Better.

Sêneca
Você vive como se estivesse destinado a viver para sempre, nenhum pensamento sobre sua fragilidade entra em sua cabeça, sem dar atenção para quanto tempo já passou.
Desperdiça tempo como se ele tivesse um suprimento completo e abundante, embora aquele dia que você concede a alguma pessoa ou coisa possa ser seu último.
Você tem todos os medos dos mortais e todos os desejos dos imortais. Ouvirá muitos homens dizendo: ” Depois de meu quinquagésimo ano, irei me retirar para o lazer, meu sexagésimo ano me libertará dos deveres públicos. ”
E que garantia tem de que sua vida se prolongará

♫ Nights In White Satin ♫ (Redux) — Filosofa’s Word

A comment or two lately mentioned the Moody Blues, and while I recently played their song, “Go Now“, I haven’t played this one for almost two years! Band member Justin Hayward wrote and composed the song at age 19 in Swindon, and titled the song after a girlfriend gave him a gift of satin bedsheets. […]

Filosofa Is Grrrrrrrrrrrrowling! — Filosofa’s Word

When I heard yesterday of so-called Democratic Senator Joe Manchin’s betrayal, I growled and damn near threw something (but, I’d just have to clean up the mess, so I held back). Once again, Manchin seems to be the fly in the ointment, seems for all intents and purposes to be against the people of this […]
