Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

I really want the Jays to win so maybe we can finally start moving away from the 3 true outcomes BS.

This Jays-Dodgers series is narratively excellent. The Mariners this year were awesome, but they were a three-true-outcomes teams which would be less exciting against another three-true-outcomes team like LA. The philosophical differences between the Jays and Dodgers create delicious tension.
