The Department of Education, led by the wife of a former head of the WWE, has declared nursing to no longer be a professional degree.
It’s a war on so called women dominated professions
It’s also devastating for the disability community

CDC sent RIF notices, then pulled some back. The result is chaos, advocates and workers say
Roughly half of the reduction-in-force notices sent to CDC staff last week were rolled back, workers and advocates said. The error adds to existing administrative disorder.

When I ran a coal plant we kept 7 - 14 days of coal in the pile to accommodate rail volatility. When we got below 3 we started curtailment planning to ensure critical loads were served. Anyway, please tell me more about how PV can’t work because it requires overnight on-sight energy storage.
