#BREAKING Hezbollah statement on pager attack by Israel.
At approximately 3:30 pm on Tuesday 09-17-2024, a number of messaging devices known as "pagers" exploded, which are owned by a number of employees in various Hezbollah units and institutions.
These explosions, the causes of which are still unknown, led to the martyrdom of a girl and two brothers, and the injury of a large number of people with various injuries.
Hezbollah's specialized agencies are currently conducting a wide-ranging security and scientific investigation to determine the reasons that led to these simultaneous explosions, and medical and health services are also treating the wounded and injured in a number of hospitals in various Lebanese regions.
We ask God Almighty to have mercy on our righteous martyrs on the road to Jerusalem, and we pray for the wounded and injured to recover quickly, and we call on our honorable people to be aware of the rumors and false and misleading information that some parties are spreading in a way that serves the psychological war in favor of the Zionist enemy, especially since this is accompanied by the Zionist enemy's intimidating and threatening speeches and what it calls changing the situation in the north.
We confirm that the resistance at all levels and various units is at the highest level of readiness to defend Lebanon and its steadfast people.
🚜 Farmers are selling their pre-purchased fertilizer at double what they paid instead of planting a crop.
Let that sink in. It is more profitable to sit out the season and flip your input costs than to put seed in the ground.
Soybean farmers lost $100 an acre last year. Corn farmers are looking at $50 to $100 losses this year. So what is the response? Switch from corn to soybeans.
Soybeans make their own nitrogen. They do not need the fertilizer corn demands.
The problem is we are already oversupplied on soybeans. More soybeans on a flooded market just drives prices lower.
Fertilizer prices have gone through the roof. The Strait of Hormuz disruptions made it worse. Farmers who locked in fertilizer early are reselling it instead of using it.
That is how broken the commodity food system has become.

📞 🇺🇸 👨💻 Two national laboratories on Long Island have successfully used quantum entanglement to transmit information in open air, potentially leading to a revolutionary transformation for communications and information technology.
The FSO link — which includes the Quantum Lighthouse and Quantum Watchtower, along with a third facility under development at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut — adds a wireless component to the record-setting quantum network currently spanning 161 miles and several institutions across Long Island and the New York metropolitan area.
Using this network, pioneered by Stony Brook and Brookhaven Lab, researchers can transmit entangled photons through commercial fiber. Because the particles remain entangled even when separated by long distances, measuring one photon instantly reveals information about its counterpart. This property, often referred to as “spooky action at a distance,” is key for the future of ultra-secure communications, ...
Subject: These cameras do it all!
Remember that I shared that red light cameras will now be issuing speeding tickets? Now they're adding headlights out or too dim?
Part of an article I found on FaceBook:
Montgomery County Activates Headlight Integrity Automated Enforcement
Rockville, MD — Montgomery County is expanding its automated traffic enforcement program with “Headlight Integrity” cameras designed to catch drivers with burned-out headlight or taillight bulbs, as well as headlights that are yellow, cloudy and oxidized from sunlight exposure.
The program uses existing red-light camera technology to detect vehicles with only one functional headlight or taillight, as well as those failing to meet minimum headlight lens clarity standards. County officials say the goal is to discourage drivers from operating vehicles with headlights that limit distance vision and jeopardize pedestrian and driver safety.
You bought it. Paid for it. But don't own it.
Starting Sept. 1, Sony will remove 500+ movies from PlayStation customers' libraries due to "expiring licensing agreements."
Not from the store. From YOUR library.
