Oil industry anon here. ND rig count last year was close to 200 until that thanksgiving 2014, now we are in the 80's. People here are cautiously optimistic, but the general sentiment from people that have been around it their whole life say its going to get much worse with Iran's oil going to market and Russia/ Saudi Arabia not slowing down at all. Some old timers here are saying 25-30 dollars a barrel next year. When the layoffs started they had the police at Halliburton and Schlumberger to keep the peace. Can't imagine the hit we'd take if oil was that cheap.

Cut your losses with oil. US NG for international export will still be a viable investment until Iran gets a pipeline up through what is now IS Group territory.
Here's the new bonanza if you have the balls for it:

>Total sales in the US on Black Friday fell 10% to $10.4bn this year, down from $11.6bn in 2014, according to research firm ShopperTrak.
>The decline in sales on the traditional busiest shopping day of the year has been blamed on shops opening the day before. But this year, sales on Thanksgiving also dropped, and by the same percentage, to $1.8bn.
>A big reason for the decline is increased online shopping, as Americans hunt down deals on their smartphones, tablets and computers. Many retailers are also offering bargains long before Thanksgiving, limiting the impact of Black Friday specials.
>Online retailers have been bombarding customers with email discounts and bargains for weeks. Online sales jumped 14.3% on Friday compared with last year, according to Adobe, which tracked activity on 4,500 retail websites. Email promotions drove 25% more sales compared with 2014, the company said.

It doesn't matter if the profits are on Black Friday, the week before, or the day after.
The golden quarter will always be golden.
Can't wait until the Black Friday meme dies. I have never participated in it and I never will.
I love how they make excuses. They'll say anything except "Sales sucked ass and we fabricated statistics here to preserve investor confidence because we're snake motherfuckers and the truth is that 65% of the nation is poor as shit because every corporation is finding ways to moneygrab and bleed the nation dry and we pay our own workers as little as humanly possible and we're dumb because expect them to have money to spend during the holiday season and pleasedisregardthatthisistheworstrunonsentenceyouhaveeverseenandseeyounextyearhopefully.

Name that important knowledge you have to learn after 5th grade that isn't directly based on the previous grade's information?!
It's ALL regurgitated information repackaged as new information after 5th grade to make it seem higher, but it's all based on the previous stuff that's already been taught.
McDonalds has never been a favorite of mine, but I don't complain if it's the closest place available.
That made me ask myself: Is McDonalds the favorite fast food place of anybody? People might only go to it just because of its proliferation, rather than the fact that they just love McDonalds.

>The new all-day breakfast menu has been a particular source of frustration, but the chain has implemented a number of radical ideas – including an option to build your own burger from 30 ingredients, ‘healthier’ items such as kale breakfast bowls, and a gimmicky ‘grey’ burger launched in China.

>Proofs
Really not sure who's at fault here. I think it will be along time before we can determine what was happening behind the scenes.
I know Russia likes to test the waters with flying through other countries air space, but so does everyone else. Russia posed 0 threat to Turkey.
DAILY REMINDER THAT TURKEY LITERALLY VIOLATED BASICALLY EVERY SINGLE NATO PROTOCOL ON AIRCRAFT INTERCEPTION. I'M IN WRITING IN CAPS BECAUSE THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT. HERE'S THE EXTRACT FROM NATO'S ARTICLES ON AIRCRAFT INTERCEPTION:
"
IF THE AIRCRAFT IS ON AN EXIT COURSE OF AN EXTREMELY NARROW BAND OF AIRSPACE, INTERCEPTION IS UNCALLED FOR
AT THE HALFWAY POINT, AN AIRCRAFT ENCROACHING UPON AIRSPACE IF ON AN EXIT COURSE, HAS COMPLIED WITH WARNINGS AND ORDERS AND CANNOT BE FIRED UPON
THE MINUTE THE AIRCRAFT IS OUT OF YOUR AIRSPACE, IT CANNOT BE FIRED UPON AND YOU MUST TURN AROUND AND GO HOME
IF YOU KNOW THE PURPOSE OF AN AIRCRAFT OPERATING CLOSE TO THE BORDER, ACCIDENTAL ENCROACHMENT IS ALLOWED AND NECESSITATES NO SCRAMBLE OR INTERCEPTION, UNLESS THE AIRCRAFT IS ON A PATH INTO YOUR COUNTRY WITH NO DEFINED EXIT POINT. IF THE AIRCRAFT IS MILITARY AND CLEARLY ARMED, AN AIRBORNE SENTRY CONSISTING OF AN INTERCEPTION SQUADRON IS ENCOURAGED TO FLY A HOLDING PATTERN ALONG THE BORDER FOR QUICK TURNAROUND. (NOTE, THAT DOESNT HAVE SHOOTDOWN OR EVEN RADAR LOCK ANYWHERE IN THE DEFINITION OF TURN AROUND)
DO NOT FIRE UPON AN AIRCRAFT THAT IS LEAVING OR HAS LEFT AIRSPACE. IT IS AN ACT OF WAR THAT BARS YOU FROM INCITING ARTICLE 5, AS NATO IS A DEFENSIVE MILITARY ORGANIZATION AND ARTICLE 5 ONLY COVERS A NATION ATTACKING A NATO COUNTRY WITHOUT DIRECT PROVOCATION OF THAT COUNTRY, OR AN OBJECTIVE ACT OF WAR AGAINST YOUR NOW PRESENT AGGRESSOR.
YOU MUST VISUALLY INTERCEPT THE AIRCRAFT AND HAVE VISUAL CONTACT WITH THE PILOT"
ALSO THIS >>1631
and you should blame russia a bit tbh. who sends an old ground attack aircraft like the SU-24 flying arround like that without SU27 escort.

A total of 21,748 people had been given deportation orders by the Migration Agency at the end of October – the largest number in history, the Aftonbladet tabloid reported on Friday.
Of those, 14,140 are registered by police as 'departed' or 'wanted'. Some are believed to still be at unknown locations in Sweden while others are thought to have left the country.
"We simply don't know where they are," Patrik Engström, head of the national border police, told the newspaper.

Will it all go horribly wrong and everyone will die or will we get cure for many diseases?
>>1470
It could also lead to incurable plagues that could wipe out 99% of humanity, but I guess there is a little risk in everything anyways. So why not?
The future of humanity is gene manipulation, and it's going to happen no matter what we do, so bring it on.
It's going to result in Nazis 2: Electric Boogaloo, so I hope you're ready for China to turn their affluent population into the Aryan master race :^)

>Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson is traveling to the Middle East this weekend to meet with Syrian refugees.
>The retired neurosurgeon has been facing questions about his command of foreign policy. Carson will tour one of Jordan's major refugee camps on Friday and Saturday, campaign manager Barry Bennett said. Bennett declined to release more details about the two-day mission because of security concerns.
>Like other Republicans, Carson has sometimes taken a harsh tone when discussing the issue. Last week, he likened blocking potential terrorists posing as Syrian refugees to handling a rabid dog.
>"We have to have in place screening mechanisms that allow us to determine who the mad dogs are, quite frankly," he said. "Who are the people who want to come in here and hurt us and want to destroy us?"
can someone explain to me how he goes and visits these camps do they just like let him walk around? do they tell the people he's running for president? do the refugees ask why he's black?

>The recent passage of the Space Act of 2015 in the U.S. House and Senate marks a key milestone for the commercial space industry. Ever since the 1967 Outer Space Treaty, nations have been banned from claiming or appropriating any celestial resource such as the Moon or another planet. Formally titled the “Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies,” the nearly fifty year old agreement has formed the basis of international space law ever since.

One this is for sure. War is going to change drastically in space. I'm not talking about different weapons. You'll have very little warning time against any kind of attack, and anybody with a spaceship would be capable of dealing critical damage to an entire colony.
