Not doing well after hours
Yes. Bought and sold 3 times, made money. Holding some now. It’s a risk but cheap. Could boom if trials go ok, otherwise could drop fast.
It’s a gamble but has some smart, experienced guys at top so hoping for best
Man, Moore Oklahoma seems to have pissed the weather gods off somehow. Didn’t they have that monster tornado in last couple of years ?

What I don’t get, you have two top ten matchups at Oxford and Athens but SECN is showing Vandy-OU ? Who makes these schedule decisions ?
Like others said, pretty easy and almost guaranteed acceptance the first time. However, if I recall correctly you must stay current on future tax obligations during the payoff term so take that into account

Yeah, wtf with these announcers ? Tuned in to watch a game and spending half the time with interviews while some good action happens on the field
18-22 weeks to start laying, not per egg. Read up on farming and egg production. Laying hens will produce 2-300 eggs per year on average once they start

150 million chickens lost is not the same as 150 million eggs lost in a year. Chickens lay considerably more than one egg per year

Suggestions? There must be an easier more affordable way to bring nuclear power back.


If it were me, I think I would start by talking to the U S Navy. They have been operating reactors for 50 + years and seem to have few problems. Think I heard that a carriers reactors could power a small city. I guess they do have one advantage in that they have unlimited water available for cooling
Just had a tornado around Blanchard, LA and headed toward Shreveport

Thought about that so I removed the cover/globe so bulbs are exposed but did not fix problem

Flickering LED bulbs

Posted by ArkBengal on 3/2/25 at 1:27 pm
Question for any electricians. I have one two bulb ceiling fixture in the house that new LED bulbs (regular screw in type) will work fine for 2-3 months then will start a flickering action before going out.
I don't have the problem with the same bulbs in any other fixture in the house so don't think I have a system voltage problem. Lower cost LED's but they work fine in other fixtures. This has been going on for 2-3 years and drives the wife nuts and I am tired of replacing them every 2-3 months.
Should I check for loose wires or bad sockets or just replace fixture - they aren't that expensive, but I don't want to replace fixture and still have the same problem.
Edit to add, they don't flicker constantly but will do it for 5-15 seconds then go back to burn steadily. TIA
