Regular readers know my obsession/fascination with this "one."
It never quits. Penn Energy is reporting that the Kemper plant blows another deadline. After a tubing leak, Mississippi Power Co. now says it's unsure when the $7 billion plant will be finished.
I will come back to this later with links. For now, from PennEnergy, it is being reported that Australia will expand hydropower project to address shortages. Again, long time readers know the back-story.

Feeling Groovy
Among the many things I will be watching tomorrow is whether there is a report that DAPL oil has begun flowing. If it does begin flowing, it will be on day #59 of Trump's presidency.
Angel Number 59 is a message from your angels that sweeping, positive changes are ahead of you.
You are asked to let go of the ‘old’ with love and gratitude and make room for the ‘new’ to enter your life. Be assured that these life changes will have long-term positive effects on many levels.
Angel Number 59 is a message that changes in your life will align you with your Divine life purpose and soul mission, and the angels encourage you to live and fulfill your lightworking duties and destiny. It is time to shift your focus from the material to the spiritual.

PORTLAND, Maine — On the heels of last year’s
(2010) record-shattering catch, another bountiful lobster harvest is expected
this year (2011) in Maine.
Last year, Maine fishermen caught more than 90 million pounds of
lobster, breaking the record of 81.2 million pounds in 2009. Even though
the resource is in strong shape and signs are pointing to another
whopper of a harvest, lobstermen are approaching the season ahead with
caution.
I read that book a few years ago. Incredible. It was a gift from my
daughter when we visited her family in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. They
now live in Boston area where we spend much of our time. As mentioned
earlier, these are my ports o' call: Boston, the Bakken, San Pedro
(California), and San Antonio (Texas).
I expect "fake news" in the political media like The New York Times, The New Yorker, The Washington Post, and, especially, The Los Angeles Times, but in Food and Wine? Give me a break.
By the way, I visit our local grocery store about four or five times a week. It's about a 2-minute bike ride. Yesterday as I walked past the fresh seafood I thought to myself: wow, I've never seen it so well-stocked, The Alaskan king crab is incredible. I can't believe how much they ad. Same with lobster. There certainly is no shortage of lobster in the DFW area. For years there have been restrictions on the size of lobster that could be harvested, but apparently those restrictions have been relaxed: I am seeing larger and larger fresh / living lobster for sale. It's really quite remarkable, especially considering that fifteen years ago there really was a concern about declining lobster populations. But it certainly was not due to global temperatures.
Memo to self: I haven't been to a Red Lobster Restaurant in decades. Literally decades.
Cheap gas in Texas: down to 79 cents in Houston. Yes, you read that correctly. Not "down 79 cents," but "down TO 79 cents. Per gallon. This will spook three folks:
the Saudis
Tesla
EVs in general
Someone else can do the math:
IEA now says that with the OPEC cuts, there could be a 0.5 million bopd deficit sometime in the 2H17 (that's later this year)
not counting the SPR, the US has well over 500 million bbls of stored crude oil; at record levels; and all indications that it will continue to increase
