Things to Look For In a Drilling Company
Sometimes, it could be economically viable to hire a company to the drilling for you other than doing it yourself. However, it can be a little bit tricky to pick the right company to deal. With the industry being infiltrated by rogue contractors, you need to be a little bit careful. Quality of the services and customer satisfaction are two key things you should look out for. Here are key things to look out for in a drilling company:
You must by checking how long they have been drilling. That is what experience is all about. So for how many years have they been providing drilling services? The best way to check out that is by checking for how long they have been open. You should also check the personal experience of the technicians that will be doing the job.
The company might have been in the industry for more than a decade but start offering bad service. That is a problem that is common when companies change ownership or management and bring in new operators who may be inexperienced. Therefore, the long the company has been open alone may not offer to help you select the best service provider.
Right Drilling Equipment
The quality of the drilling equipment is an important factor to consider. The most important thing is the size of the machine in terms of power. For quality service, the quality machine is recommended. Check the horsepower as well as the quality of auger teeth and other wear parts. These are key factors that make a great drilling machine. Otherwise, you might end up paying for shady service.
The safety of the operators and that of the people involved in the operation is crucial. You must ensure that the company is putting the safety of the operation first. They need to check the surface for hazards such as electrical lines and gas lines amongst others. Any company that is not putting safety first is unprofessional and potential fraud.
Customer service
Last but not least if the customer service. If you want to know if the company is a serious one, then you need to check their customer service. How do they treat their customers? Well, this is a question that can only be answered by the experience of the previous customers. Did they like the service? It is easy to get that information from customer reviews.

Current Research:
(1) In "Calculation of a Population Externality," American Economic Journal: Economic Policy, Henning Bohn and I quantify the harm a birth imposes on everyone else (the "population externality") if emissions turn out to be a serious problem. The population externality in this case is large. Link to appendix.
(2) In "Revenue Extraction by Median Voters," Henning Bohn and I study how the desire to pay lower taxes implies political pressure to redistribute in favor of median-income households, which means that revenue is extracted from high-income households. We assume taxpayers elect representatives who set tax policy, policy is incentive-compatible, and "minimum-utility" constraints limit what can be taken from the poor. To model political competition, we assume individuals differ only in income-earning ability (productivity) and we consider elections between two exogenously given candidates, each of whom if elected would maximize the utility of individuals with known, specific productivity. We show that a candidate who would set tax policy to maximize the utility of median-productivity individuals is a Condorcet winner, meaning the candidate would beat any candidate with a different objective. In this way, revenue extraction by median-income voters is a Condorcet outcome. Resulting policy broadly resembles U.S. policy: taxes are progressive with high marginal rates at the lower and upper ends of the income distribution, and most revenue comes from high-income taxpayers.

Well, I must say that this wallpaper took a lot of work! And I also must say that it will probably for nothing! Seeing as Chance Pop Session is quite unknown...^^; So yeah, this is Akari from Chance Pop (or Triangle) Session. It's a very good anime so I suggest you watch it! Now then, this is only my THIRD vector so please be nice. I'm amazed that it's so much better than my first two though! I submitted it on AP as stand-alone so hopefully it'll be accepted. I'm always fearing whether my things will be accepted there or not...
The original scan I vectored is this one:
It was quite hard for me to do...I'd go into the details, but I already did for the description of it as a scan (on AP)...and I'd rather not mention it all again here! Plus, it took a long time to describe. .(-c-). I'll sum it up here quickly though: it took over 10 hours, 100 shape layers, 10 normal layers (outlines), she's an amputee, I hated doing her hair and dress, and, again, it was hard for me. Yes, that's just for the vector of Akari.
As for the wallpaper itself...the background and all, I had this idea to have her on the clouds and holding stardust! I don't know why, but that's just how I imagined her being. So I used brushwork, gradients, a circle for the moon...added glows. I had fun with the little stars and glowing things all around! I think it kind of looks like she's holding stardust now, right? I hope so. I'm also really hoping that she looks ok...and that this overall wallpaper looks ok, too!! It took a lot of time and work, and I just don't want this to go completely unnoticed. It may suck, and it isn't my usual texture-y wallpapers...but it's still fine, right? I keep getting told that my wallpapers need variation and that they're all really similar! I have a feeling this one is, too...sorry.
Thanks for taking the time to look and read this (if you did). Please enjoy!!
P.S. This time, instead of just changing the image size from 1600x1200 to 1280x1024 and ending up with skewed proportions, I actually cropped it to fit the size...so some is cut of (SOME) in the 1280x1024, but it looks clearer and non-distorted this time!

'Most hated h– in LA' arrested for child sex trafficking
A California escort who describes herself as the "most hated h– in L.A. has apparently lived up to her name in heinous fashion. Melanie Denae Williams, 22, had no problems with being called a h–, in fact, she would rather you call her "pretty h–," which was also is the name of her website prettyhoe.com where she would advertise her services.
It also served as a way to increase her brand in social media and attract young girls to sex trafficking. On Tuesday, March 13, Williams was indicted in the U.S. District Court of Los Angeles on trafficking minors for sex and using force or fraud to coerce an adult into prostitution. The indictment specifically alleges one count of sex trafficking an adult by force, fraud, or coercion; two counts of sex trafficking of a minor; and two counts of enticement of a minor to engage in prostitution.
It was all part of a long investigation that led to Williams' arrest on Christmas Eve 2017. According to an FBI statement, Williams had made a woman strip naked and then poured bleach on her and beat her with a broomstick. Williams met the woman on social media and forced her into prostitution according to the FBI. The victim was tormented by Williams who had her tattoo "Melanie" on her body to show her ownership. Williams was infamous on social media platforms where she posted videos of herself violently beating men and women who upset her using the handle pretty304. In addition, Williams is accused of trafficking two minor females and her arrest may be part of a larger federal task force into organized sex trafficking.
Law enforcement officials say if convicted of any of the charges in the indictment, Williams would face a potential life sentence. Each of the five charges carries a mandatory minimum sentence. The charge of sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion carries a mandatory minimum penalty of 15 years in federal prison, and each of the four counts related to minors carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years.

Here in Latvia, we have such thing as Name day. Imagine all the "Latvian" names (it's not only Latvian, I would say common names in Latvia) are written in the calendar. What about those whose name isn't written on the calendar. There is also one day (and that is May 22) when those who don't have names written in the calendar can celebrate his/her name day.
All my daughters' names aren't traditional Latvian names, except Helmī – that one is old Livs (Livonian) name but only 2 has left in Latvia, so no separate name day. Only 2 Nelles in Latvia, 24 Linnas, and one Helmī – Saule. I'm happy to say my girls' names aren't on the calendar so we can celebrate them in one day – May 22! Like we did yesterday!

Bahrain's banking regulator has strongly criticized ratings agency Standard & Poor's downgrade of Bahrain. Central Bank of Bahrain Governor Rasheed al Maraj told the fifth annual (Persian) Gulf Cooperation Council Financial Forum in the tiny Arab kingdom that the downgrade was "unwarranted, untimely and uncalled for".
According to al Maraj, the agency had failed to take into account the fact that Bahrain accelerated its fiscal consolidation plan, introducing price increases on fuel, fee increases on tobacco, redirecting subsidies on electricity, water and meat and cutting costs in ministries and government departments, Albawaba reported.
Calling S&P's action too drastic, al Maraj said it was also unfortunate that it came when Bahrain upsized and launched a $750 million, two-part bond reopening. "This was on the back of strong demand with the order book topping $1.35 billion but we cancelled the re-tap for the sake of our investors," he added.
Reuters reported that Bahrain has started taking orders again to raise funds through a reopening of its previous two-part bond sale. The country has set initial price thoughts for the re-tap, split between five- and 10-year portions, at respectively 5.95% and 7.65%.
Bahrain had priced its re-tap last week at 5.70% for the 5-year portion and 7.40% for the 10-year piece.
S&P cut Bahrain by two notches to 'BB/B' with a stable outlook, pushing the rating below investment grade and making Bahrain the first of the wealthy Persian Gulf Arab oil exporters (Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE) to suffer that fate in the current downturn.
Bahrain is working with the same five banks–Bank ABC, BNP Paribas, Citigroup, HSBC and JP Morgan–which arranged its $1.5 billion bond in November and the cancelled re-tap.
Another key issue according to al Maraj was the problem of international banks becoming reluctant to deal with banks in Bahrain and the Persian Gulf Arab states because of tight US regulation. "Many international banks have curtailed their correspondent services with regional and local banks. Some of the banks have refrained from dealing with exchange houses," he said. "This has affected a wide sector of the population, especially the expatriates."
Al Maraj said officials in Bahrain had met US Treasury officials last November and planned another meeting on the issue in April. US regulations, part of a tougher regime introduced since the financial crisis, include scrutiny of potential tax avoidance and anti-money laundering rules.
These have imposed extra costs on US banks, prompting many to reduce the number of foreign institutions with which they do business, and making international banks operating in the US more wary of ties with the Persian Gulf Arab states. Some banks in the Persian Gulf Arab states have been under particularly close scrutiny by US authorities.

Reaching Nagarhole Jungle Lodge, it seemed I had back geared 100 years behind, amidst British-era-Royal-hospitality, where even a little piece of architecture was exemplifying aristocracy.
The Govt. lodge once was hunting palace for Maharajas of Mysore.
The Kabini River snakes beside the resort, the deck chairs on the open balcony enough to make you feel out of this planet.
Then there came the "Jungle safari". We are so use to zoo and captive animals, eyes just came popping out on the sight of tiger without an iron wattle between us. We WERE in "Their –Empire". The 'Royal' of The Jungle didn't even consider us worth giving a slightest glance at, he crossed the Safari Jeep ignoring our presence, leaving us breathless. The only sound crossed the jungle chirping was the "sound of shutters" from awestruck 'pilgrims'.
More was waiting to strike surprise on the level of expectations we nestled in our heart. River safari started with the setting Sun as back drop. Kabini presented the 'Herbivore-Kingdom' on its bank, herd of Elephants, Bison, Wild Boars, Sambars, Chitals, Monkeys, Peacocks, Birds known ,unknown all in one side.
Floating silently in the safe distance we savour their evening quench. Felt as if teleported between Elephants, Bison, boars, peacocks, unnoticed, ignored, invisible, the vibration of Elephant's walk, heavy puffs of bison breath, snorts of wild boars, hoofing Chitals touched my all senses, all around.
Hour passed; thickening the blue to deep, dying the ochre to grey, the 'Disney Land' in front us veiled itself in mist, slowly. We zoomed our lenses out to the highest, but the show was over for the viewers of Kabini "Gallery".
Being back in tent we couldn't talk for hours, the disbelief what we actually experienced made us wordless. Amused by our dumbfound-ness, we were explained how each steps the forest employees fight against all adversities to save this incredible kingdom of animals.
The after-coffee-evening-session was still pregnant. In the "show –hall" we were presented with a movie on Nagarhole ecosystem.It was explained how a healthy Tiger implicates "healthy" life for the whole human kind. A healthy Tiger means healthy prey base, implying healthy vegetation, which means healthy rain, controlled temperature, water in the river and half of the weather problem solved for human being.
On the campfire after-while, with hot soup, we heard spine chilling stories about Chandan-Mafia Veerappan.
At first when I heard the per day-per person cost of this trip no doubt I felt it's bit at high-end but when the jeep begun to leave Nagarhole I was just wondering how they managed it so cheap, such "Maharaja suite" where we stayed, wake up calls, bed- tea, breakfast, evening tea/coffee with snacks, unlimited buffet lunch & dinner, two safaris, a whole film show, campfire, soup,seamless services, in such a pittance… !!!...??? Might be it is possible only because it is a Govt. Resort.
Nagarhole National Park resides 220km S-W of Bangalore and 80 km away from Mysore. Now the connectivity from Mumbai to Mysore is pretty uncomfortable. One can travel to Bangalore and hire a car or come to Mysore from Bangalore by train and then hire a car to Nagarhole. One needs to be pretty careful while hiring the car because they end up charging unreasonably high sometimes.
You may write to email@example.com for more details. If planning to travel alone let me know I can always be a great help/advisor for lone travelers :P :P :P and oh yes....!! for families too. :) ;)

In addition to being KnollTextiles' largest collection of 2019, Contour also holds several exciting firsts for the company, including upholstery woven on a clear warp, embroidered wallcovering/wrapped panel fabric and a new category of sustainable wallcovering.

Ed was behind the wheel and we had our iced teas...and off we went to the high country of Pocahontas County.
And faithfully, God showed me abundant gifts, including 3 - 1 caught, 1 let go, 1 mid-way.
- I read out loud to Edster as he drove...returning back to Ann Voskamp's book we read last year, One Thousand Gifts. As I opened the book, I was caught by surprise by a memorial leaflet from the calling hours I had attended for a 2-year-old that had been accidentally hit by a vehicle backing out of her driveway. Ann's story begins the same way about her 2-year-old sister. I remembered the gift I caught one night while on call to be a healing presence to this family and gift to know this loving family. It was not a gift I expected to think about today...and therefore, it was also a gift that caught me by surprise!
- Throughout the day, I was lavishly surrounded by all of this incredible beauty of God's creative artistry making the mountains appear blanketed with patchwork quilts of red, gold, orange, yellow, and green. The trees were on fire! And while I embraced every moment indulging in God's gift of autumn glory, I also knew I would have to let go. There was no way I could take it home. Photograph it, as I may, I could not clone what my eyes were seeing...the brilliance, the dimensions, the richness.
- Though many gifts I opened today will have to remain behind, what a gift it is to realize that it is only Wednesday...not even mid-way through my vacation. And what a time of renewal and wonder it has been, thus far.
What were yours today? Tomorrow...3 Gifts Reaped! Keep your eyes open...God's gifts are waiting!

Wednesday 10th 7-9pm – American Artists
A current exhibition to visit until June is at the Royal Academy in London, showing American artists' paintings from the 1930s. Expanding to include artists from the USA before and after this time, paint in the style of your favourite artist.
Choose from one of the following or research another artist…Grant Wood, Edward Hopper, Georgia O'Keeffe, Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, James Whistler, Mary Cassatt, John Singer Sergeant, Faith Ringgold, Jackson Pollock, Jacob Lawrence, Kara Walker or Jeff Koons.
Saturday 27th 10am-3.30pm – Watercolour workshop with Eric Stewart
Our own Eric S will be running this watercolour workshop on the theme of a seaside seascape. Eric will be supplying the picture for us to work from, but those who work quickly might want to bring another picture to work from if you finish your first painting.
Bring your watercolours and the paper you usually paint on, no need for anything else.
Eric didn't want a fee to run this workshop, but we've found out he is raising money for his granddaughter, Hannah, who is a senior guide and hoping to go to Mexico this summer on a guide trip. We thought it a good idea to add a couple of pounds to a normal Saturday fee to give to Eric to help Hannah achieve her goal. If on the day you would like to give a little extra donation, then it would be most gratefully received.
Please book with Susan asap. There are no restrictions on numbers, but Eric needs to know how many artists to prepare for.
The fee for today is £8
Wednesday 14th 7-9pm – Spring Competition
Our yearly competition is a very friendly affair and is NOT compulsory…if you don't want to enter a picture for judging, that's fine, please just use what is suggested as inspiration for a painting.
The theme is…MIXED MEDIA
This year there is no subject, you can paint absolutely any subject you want, just use at least 3 different mediums in your paintings.
Mixed media was the most asked for objective, so having a couple of sessions will help you experiment and get used to using several mediums in one painting.
There's no right or wrong way to paint mixed media, just your own way.
The variety of mediums to use is almost endless. Try…oils, acrylics, watercolours, pens, pencils, ink, collage, glue, sawdust, sand, tea, coffee, wax, salt, Brusho, fabrics, newspapers, flowers, feathers, pastels, chalk, leaves, metal, shells, plastic, glitter, gold or silver leaf etc.
Saturday 24th 10am-3.30pm – Spring Competition continued
Continue with your mixed media picture, or paint another. Please use at least 3 different mediums in your painting and make a note of what they are on a small piece of paper, as it will be interesting to see the different effects produced.
All pictures to be in by 3pm, when we all cast one vote for our favourite painting. The artist of the winning painting will win a small cash prize.
The fee for today is £6. No need to book.

John and I celebrated our 9 year anniversary!
We recently dealt with some marital issues and through them I learned some valuable information that I feel like would be beneficial for all married couples.
Our argument centered around the fact that John and I have been struggling with communicating our needs with one another, a common issue with many couples.
In the heat of the moment, we both threw out some nasty things and said things that neither of us meant and just wanted to hurt the other more than we were hurting.
I went to a friend and the first question they asked was "when was the last time we had gone on a date..just the TWO of us?"
I was embarrassed to look back and realize how long it had been and I hadn't realized it.
Sure, we had gotten out of the house together, but it was always with the kids or with friends. We hadn't made time for ourselves in months!
If we were dating and hadn't gone on a date in months, then we would've lost interest with each other and moved on. We got so caught up in our nonstop, busy lives, that we forgot to stop and take time to nurture our relationship as husband and wife!
Once I realized this, I sat down to try to figure out what I could do as an anniversary gift to try to make the situation better.
The solution was a date night book, I sat down and decided that we were going to commit to 1 date night per month. Using the magical powers of google, I curated an entire year of date nights, all unique and tailored just for the 2 of us! Some, I pre-purchased, and some are flexible. I will create a separate post of all the ideas I planned for us for my next post and will link it here when it goes up.
The point is, now that we have plans pre made, we are more likely to keep the date regardless of how busy each other is.
There is no downside to getting to spend more quality time with the man you fell in love with, married and created a life with. I can not wait to go on all the dates and grow our relationship even more!

If you're not yet convinced the city's corporate luxury takeover is reaching Twilight Zone status, consider the greater Meatpacking District. Upscale clothing boutiques attract so few patrons they appear closed at midday. Empty storefronts abound. An RH-branded restaurant lies around the corner from a Lexus-branded restaurant. A Buddha-themed chain brasserie sits opposite another Buddha-themed brasserie.

My Life in RuinsDVD - 2009
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
One of my favourite movies of all time. I was so happy when I saw that the Library purchased it! Awesome acting by all actors in the movie. Nice sweet and simple romantic comedy.
The movie plot and characters are not bad. Actually, all the characters are as interesting as their interactions with each other. However, the cinematic quality is skewed by the over-rental of the movie through the library. Make sure to check the quality of the disc before bringing the movie home.
Light hearted fun comedy. Not fall on the floor funny like My big fat Greek wedding.
Meh. If you're looking for a delightful follow-up to My Big Fat Greek Wedding, this ain't it. It wasn't offensive (well, unless you're Greek - see long comment below, which dissects the movie nicely!) but it wasn't much of anything, really. Full of over-the-top stereotypical characters and situations. We considered switching it off, but in the end watched it all the way through, not really owing to any great charm in the movie but because at least it never got any worse than the first 20 minutes, and actually got slightly better. Still meh, though.
Feel good romantic comedy shot on location. Good plot, well-acted, very enjoyable.
I had lot of fun watching this movie full of comical situations that were bordering with stupidity.

Changes to Citizenship Laws
Posted on: Thu 29 Nov 2018
With chaos surrounding the Federal Liberal Party, it is unsurprising that they are doubling down on their perceived strength of law, order and punishment. Home Affairs Minister Peter Dutton has unveiled yet another reform to make it easier to strip away Australian Citizenship, despite the risks of statelessness, indefinite detention and constitutional challenges.
Doctor Sangeetha Pillai from the Kaldor Centre at the University of New South Wales joined Nick and Ian on Breakfast to talk about the potential changes,

ECB Draghi Talks down Central Bank Decision to Remove Easing Bias – Euro (EUR) Exchange Rates Slip
The Euro South African Rand (EUR/ZAR) exchange rate fell on Friday as markets reacted to European Central Bank (ECB) President Mario Draghi downplaying the significance of the bank removing their easing bias from the March statement.
The central bank voted against raising interest rates at this meeting, as markets widely expected, though economists were excited to see that the ECB removed their easing bias, seemingly indicating that the time for normalising monetary policy neared.
Mr Draghi soon talked down these ideas, however, stating in the accompanying press conference that the decision to expand their quantitative easing program had been added to the bank's rate statement back in 2016 when the context was very different.
He also stated that the ECB maintains its pledge to continue its asset purchase program until September 2018, or indeed beyond 'if necessary'.
Beyond this, the ECB's growth forecasts were revised for 2018 from 2.4% to 2.3% in December.
Combined, this news continued to encumber the single currency, with the imminent release of the US labour market stats also proving a notable thorn in the Euro's side.
Rand (ZAR) Exchange Rates Limited by Trade War Fears and Land Grab Woes
The South African Rand (ZAR) might be in the lead today, but its upward potential continues to be limited by a whole host of problems.
Chief amongst these are the latest talks of a trade war, with US President Donald Trump officially signing a proclamation today for a 25% tariff on steel and a 10% tariff on aluminium (temporarily excluding Mexico and Canada).
These will come into effect in 15 days, with the US president hoping that the tariffs will revive, and better protect the US steel and aluminium industries.
'You are truly the backbone of America, you know that. Very special people,' President Trump told the workers. 'We have to protect our steel and aluminium industries while at the same time, showing great flexibility with people who are really friends of ours'.
Both China and the EU have threatened to retaliate with tariffs of their own, however, a prospect that bodes extremely poorly for riskier, commodity focused economies like South Africa's.
Beyond this, investors continue to be hesitant to invest too heavily into South Africa after the latest constitutional change that allows land expropriation without compensation.
President Cyril Ramaphosa has since urged people not to panic about the issue, and stressed that 'farming activities must continue as normal and investment in land and farming must continue', but the sentiment remains that vast swathes of white-owned land could be seized at any moment, legally, by the state.
This has lowered the attractiveness of the region to investors, but the decision also poses a huge potential threat to the country's agriculture – their primary export.
EUR/ZAR Exchange Rate Forecast: US Labour Market Figures Liable to Limit the Euro
The Euro South African Rand (EUR/ZAR) exchange rate could come under even more pressure later today depending on the performance of the US labour market statistics.
Analysts are currently expecting the highly significant US unemployment rate to fall from 4.1% to 4.0%, an event that would underline further tightening in the US labour market and likely propel the US Federal Reserve even closer to a rate hike this very month.
If this occurs then demand could be hastily siphoned away from the Euro, particularly with the US Federal Reserve regarded as on track for 4 rate hikes this year, rather than the previously anticipated 3.

When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love. — Marcus Aurelius
I've been thinking on these words since a friend on Instagram shared them a few days ago. As you can imagine, life has not slowed down for us–and with ten people under one roof, it's not all that hard to imagine really. It can be noisy and messy and — did I say noisy? It's easier to see and focus on those things now because they demand my immediate attention and they are antithetical to adulthood and maturity. However, in the midst of the clutter and various routines and chatter is life–childhood and parenthood and this relatively brief interval of time when they overlap. That's the perspective I want everyday, the lesson I've been learning lately (and possibly always): today is a gift. Life (breath, thought, love, laughter, sharing, etc.) is a gift.
I'm currently slowing down the days by giving thanks (as mentioned in the previous post), finding the everyday somethings, the everyday "privileges," no matter how small. I've hardly been able to pick up my real camera, but here's a few snippets of our happenings lately: the gifts of life. (Find more of our daily happenings by following me on Instagram @cloisteredaway) Happy Friday everyone.

Why are landfills important?
Landfills are important because many people might not like the idea of a landfill in their area, or in their city, but it is vital part of the smooth running and clean initiative that you need when it comes to rubbish and waste disposal. This is why residents and businesses can enjoy a clean environment: all their garbage removal and waste disposal, that is collected and removed.
Facts you may not know about landfills
- About one-third of an average dump is made up of packaging material!
- Every year, each American throws out about 1,200 pounds of organic garbage that can be composted.
- The U.S. is the #1 trash-producing country in the world at 1,609 pounds per person per year. This means that 5% of the world's people generate 40% of the world's waste.
- The highest point in Hamilton County, Ohio (near Cincinnati) is "Mount Rumpke." It is actually a mountain of trash at the Rumpke sanitary landfill towering 1045 ft. above sea level.
- The US population discards each year 16,000,000,000 diapers, 1,600,000,000 pens, 2,000,000,000 razor blades, 220,000,000 car tires, and enough aluminum to rebuild the US commercial air fleet four times over.
- Out of every $10 spent buying things, $1 (10%) goes for packaging that is thrown away. Packaging represents about 65% of household trash.
- On average, it costs $30 per ton to recycle trash, $50 to send it to the landfill, and $65 to $75 to incinerate it.

Reporters didn't do anything, regular citizens did, and that one is from 2014 if I remember correctly. The Fords have dug their own grave, no pun intended, with their lousy behaviour, lies and lack of compassion to anyone but themselves which is why we're still here.I guess im bi-political, if that's a thing lol. I can see it both ways. Both media sides are completely politically narrated. But I believe the bias really becomes a major issue when one side has quite a bit more avenues to reach people than the other and the overwhelming narrative doesn't reflect the majority of society. The Left media octopus has a few more tentacles currently and while that probably helped them at one time in this City, the bias is a bit too much and Politicians are now using it against them.
From what I see here since Fords announcement to run, some "reporters" are making memes like the one with Fords face as a butthole lol and the attacks are in force just from him announcing. Id say anyone who started making memes at the thought of him running or looking to plot ways to attack online is very far Left. Anyhow the point was the jabs and attacks are now counter productive against the people doing them, and if they can somehow refrain enough to not talk about him at all it might produce better results.
Ford would do himself in the if media could just report without the over the top bias. Then they could never claim the they are being "attacked" and his warts would stand at the forefront with no excuse. For these types of politicians any publicity is good publicity.
