Congestion: shipping logjams spread on crush of imports. WSJ. Bottlenecks in southern are easing, but US west coast ports expect a surge in container shipments to continue.

Delays that have stretched from docks to rail yards, truck terminals and distribution centers have rattle supply chains for companies from big auto manufacturers to mom-and-pop retailers, straining assembly lines because of parts shortages and leaving store shelves empty.

Bottlenecks at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, the nation’s two biggest gateways, eased with the queue of ships waiting to dock shrinking to fewer than 20 this week from an armada of around 40 vessels at one point earlier this year, according to the Marine Exchange of Southern California.

AstraZeneca: Germany's Angela Merkel says the vaccine is safe and she herself would take it ... but she hasn't. She says she won't "jump the queue." LOL. WSJ.  It is now confirmed that the vaccine is associated with a blood-clotting disorder ... but hey, it's treatable. And "they" say folks are crazy to delay getting their immunizations.

Deshaun Watson: now faces seven civil lawsuits; apparently ten more waiting in the wings. The big question: just how many massage parlors did he visit?

Predicted: I didn't think Tokyo would allow the Olympics this summer; it appears I am wrong. But Tokyo has just announced no foreign spectators will be allowed. WSJ. So, it's now the Japanese Invitational. With triple masking.

Bakken: straddle wells. Link at The Gas News. Archived.
