How bad is it going to get for the offshore industry? How long with OPEC keep up their strategy to destroy all other oil production?
Offshore industry was waining before land rig count started to decline. Cost to operate those ships is astronomical, so it makes sense for those to be hit the hardest.

The only reason OPEC was winning the oil economic war was because the United States foolishly banned exporting oil. They just lifted it, but it's hard to tell if it's too late or not.

That took them 30 years to realize?!
So /fit/ and their "bear mode" is a load of bullshit?
>>10758
Bear mode is different.
True bear modes look fat but they have a lower BF % than the average man. If you look at a lot of powerlifters, for example, they have a big gut but no rolls. SOME muscle is also usually able to be seen, mostly around the shoulder/arm area. It's not exactly healthy, but pro powerlifters would be lowering the amount of weight they'd be able to move if they ever cut.

The decades old wall, on which construction began in 1955, will send billions of tonnes of water crashing towards various rural communities that have their lives set along the Zambezi river.
The gigantic structure, which stands 128 metres tall and 579 metres wide and is a key feature in the world’s largest man-made lake and water reservoir, has been operational for more than 50 years.

Oh wow and it was one study.
My original statements stand.
"The Law and Justice party, which took power last month, controls both houses of Parliament and the presidency, leaving the constitutional court as the only effective check on its power. The government recently has moved to stack the court with its supporters, and plans legislation that would essentially make the court unable to work."

The constitutional court is a joke, it has no power to overrule laws established by the parliament. It was all a slick plan made by the ex-gov who knew they will get destroyed in October elections.
In June, just four months before the election, they came up with a plan-create a fourth pillar of power that would question every reform applied by new government, effectively stopping any changes deemed unnecessary by EU. Too bad Jarosław (leader of the ruling party Law and Justice) has a Doctor of Law and knows the...

The World Bank has approved a $1.5 billion loan to support an Indian government program to improve sanitation by 2019.
The Clean India Mission "aims to end open defecation, achieve open defecation free communities, and improve the management of liquid and solid waste" by providing toilets to rural areas.
"In rural India, three out of five people suffer the indignity of defecating in the open," the World Bank said in a statement Wednesday. "Girls and women have to venture out before dawn or after dark leaving them vulnerable to harassment."

This is hilarious. The idea of a stoner sloth fits the feel of weed perfectly.

basic products have begun to appear on the shelves of stores in Venezuela.
Through social media, people in Venezuela have begun to denounce the suspicious reappearance of some staple goods in some markets following the Dec. 6 elections.
The social media users have indicated that the sudden reappearance of these goods and the fact that they have expired dates on them expose that there have been no issues with production, but rather with distribution,...
