Big day today visiting Wuzetem fuel injection in Warsaw. I marveled at the work they do: receiving steel bar stock, cutting and machining that into fuel injector body and needle blanks, then precision-machining them to 0.001mm specification, heat-treating and then surface hardening them (1/3)

This is after the rest of us knew Epstein was a pedophile, not after _they_ knew. They knew all along, so nothing had changed in their relationship with him.

One of my earliest moments of radicalization was in 2005 when Larry Summers said that women biologically have less aptitude for science than men. Following that, scores of equally unimpressive people wrote pieces trying to explain or justify his remarks, when they should have called for his removal.

Wow. 14" of fresh powder in Canaan Valley, West Virginia this morning. But that's not all.
Flurries were even reported in Myrtle Beach, SC; Charlotte and Atlanta.
Is this a sign of a BIG winter to come? Our winter outlook is coming out later this week. Stay tuned.
