me thinks "the fuse" has been lit - just hoping it's a really long fuse so we can deal with it AFTER Russia exits Ukraine which is precisely why I don't think it will

On Wednesday, the Chinese People's Liberation Army dispatched 62 aircraft and seven vessels into areas near Taiwan, the island's defense ministry shared in a statement. The collection of Chinese aircraft included Shenyang J-16 fighter jets, Shaanxi Y-8 EW and ASW transport planes, and the Xi'an JH-7 fighter/bomber.
Taiwan's defense ministry said that it responded to the situation with naval vessels, a combat air patrol, and land-based missile systems, which were used to monitor the nearby Chinese military activity. But during a news conference, military officials said they are willing to take further steps and defend itself if necessary.
"For Chinese aircraft and ships that enter our territorial waters and airspace," within 12 nautical miles of the island, Lin explained, "the national army will exercise the right to self-defense and counterattack without exception."
So far, Chinese warplanes or ships have yet to move within 12 nautical miles of Taiwan's main island, The Wall Street Journal reported Wednesday.
Wednesday's remarks, which also included a warning about how Taiwan would respond to incursions by Chinese unmanned aerial vehicles, come just one day after Taiwan fired warning shots at a Chinese drone for the first time, forcing it to fly back to mainland China.

WASHINGTON — A prominent Russian oil executive died Thursday morning after reportedly falling out of a hospital window in Moscow, stoking suspicions of foul play, given how frequently vocal critics of the Kremlin have been shot, poisoned or defenestrated.
Ravil Maganov, 67, was chairman of the board at Lukoil, the Russian energy giant. His death was reported by Russian news agency Interfax and confirmed by Western outlets.
In March, Lukoil criticized the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine launched at President Vladimir Putin’s insistence in late February. “We fully support its resolution through negotiations, by diplomatic means,” that statement said. It was a remarkable show of dissent in a nation where, even in peacetime, corporations and their leaders are expected to never contradict the Kremlin.

We'll all get remote controlled thermostats eventually.... 
Temperatures climbed into the 90s Tuesday, which is why Tony Talarico tried to crank up the air conditioning in his partner's Arvada home.
"I mean, it was 90 out, and it was right during the peak period," Talarico said. "It was hot."
That's when he saw a message on the thermostat stating the temperature was locked due to an "energy emergency."

"It's a voluntary program. Let's remember that this is something that customers choose to be a part of based on the incentives," said Emmett Romine, vice president of customer solutions and innovation at Xcel.We'll all get remote controlled thermostats eventually....
Temperatures climbed into the 90s Tuesday, which is why Tony Talarico tried to crank up the air conditioning in his partner's Arvada home.
"I mean, it was 90 out, and it was right during the peak period," Talarico said. "It was hot."
That's when he saw a message on the thermostat stating the temperature was locked due to an "energy emergency."
Customers receive a $100 credit for enrolling in the program and $25 annually, but Romine said customers also agree to give up some control to save energy and money and make the system more reliable.
"So, it helps everybody for people to participate in these programs. It is a bit uncomfortable for a short period of time, but it's very, very helpful," said Romine.
This is the first time in the program's six year span that customers could not override their smart thermostats, Romine said. He said the "energy emergency" was due to an unexpected outage in Pueblo combined with hot weather and heavy air conditioner usage.
Voluntary now....someone somewhere will eventually think it's a great idea for everyone.
