cant our gulf coast refineries refine it?
Yes, they were built to handle heavy sour crude
Don’t they mix it with Louisiana Sweet and west Texas Intermediate to aid in the refining process?
Venezuelan Crude is very sour and has a high sulfur content. It is also very thick compared to Texas and Louisiana crudes.
Word is that one of the first batches from Venezuela was spilled in the oil spill at LOOP earlier this year.

Yes we knew these names in January
The names are actually on a six year name rotation. Unless a name is retired for being a storm of significance, every six years the names repeat. There have been 10 storms name Dolly in the Atlantic. 14 world wide.
In the Atlantic Ocean:
Hurricane Dolly (1953) – strong hurricane that weakened rapidly before passing over Bermuda
Hurricane Dolly (1954) – stayed far from land
Hurricane Dolly (1968) – moved up the east coast of the United States but did not make landfall
Tropical Storm Dolly (1974) – did not strike land
Hurricane Dolly (1996) – made landfall at Quintana Roo, Mexico and again at Tamaulipas, Mexico
Tropical Storm Dolly (2002) – never threatened land
Hurricane Dolly (2008) – Category 2 hurricane that caused $1.5 billion in damage to Texas and Mexico
Tropical Storm Dolly (2014) – made landfall in Mexico
Tropical Storm Dolly (2020) – formed off the coast of the United States as a subtropical depression
Tropical Storm Dolly (2026) – currently active

She recently sold her music catalog for 200M
I wonder how these deals hold up now that streaming and other changes in the music business are trending to less and less financial returns.
Did Brittney get all 200 million upfront or will she get over X years and dependent on X sales?
Also how does the holding company make money by holding the rights until the copyright expires in from the death of a writer plus 70 years and in some cases up to 120 years from creation or being first published.

This is why people always cheering about the DNC being broke are missing the big picture. Dems have an almost limitless amount of cash they can funnel to whoever they want. Just because the DNC is nearly bankrupt doesnt impact all the NGO controlled accounts out there totaling billions that have been stolen the last few years and are ready to be directed anywhere needed.
I think the DNC is better at spreading the money around than Republicans. Republicans like to hold money and play cat and mouse games with candidates.
There is an old coastal restoration joke someone told me. Money is better spent on the bank than keeping it in the bank.

Casinos. The construction workers are going to overwhelm LC.
Don’t forget you have Evangeline Downs in Opelousas and Cypress Bayou in St. Mary Parish.
Heck there maybe even a spillover to the Amelia Belle. I heard this month they are finally ditching the boat in a few years. Next year construction is expected to start. The Advocate slipped in the news when Boomtown in Harvey announced that it will move on land too and rebrand as Hollywood New Orleans and showed some renderings. My only issue about the Hollywood New Orleans conceptual drawings made it look like a fancy Walmart of Gambling.
It doesn’t look like a casino. It looks more like a place to get bread, milk, and eggs.

Ummmm... McDonalds may not be the best example when talking about real meat....
You would be surprised at how well McDonalds is able to vertically integrate all of its supply chain and how it manages its suppliers.
Some of them are subsidiaries so McDonalds can control the price and the quality. That is why every year when there is a tomato shortage, McDonalds is somehow unaffected by this because they own or manage their own tomato farms.

Bombardier wanted to build a air/rail/river complex around Donaldsonville/St James area back in the 90s. The idea was to compete as a hub for cargo and travel.
All I remember was the push to build a hub for cargo and air travel.
Think of it as a regional hub combining the New Orleans and Baton Rouge airports into one centralized airport where more cargo and passengers would support more direct flights and cargo. It would be no different than a large city like Denver building a massive airport 25 miles from downtown. I think they even wanted to centralize it with a light rail service that would have connected New Orleans and Baton Rouge, and the terminal would act as an intermodal transportation hub. Connecting light rail travelers with air and ground services. Cargo would arrive and depart via air, rail, and even ship.
Biggest downside was no one wanted to work together, too many wanted to keep their piece of the aviation pie.

ceremony for the renaming of Highway 411 in Sevierville as "Dolly Parton Parkway". Dolly joked that it was a pretty flat stretch of highway and that maybe they should have renamed a stretch of I-40 for her.

Running the oil and gas companies out of NewO.
I don’t think any one ran them off necessarily. Some of that was a natural consolidation into a single central office in a larger city especially after a huge downturn in the oil and gas business when it became cheaper to import oil than drill for it domestically.

Clearest 9/11 footage I've ever seen
Ahh the good ole days of 4x3 480i video. Very few HD recordings were made back then because high definition was still relatively new and expensive. Heck even digital broadcasting was still relatively new and most back channel feeds were still analog.
Digital tape was just starting to get on the mainstream market with miniDV and DV tapes bringing the price down to reasonable levels. It took Sony about 10 years to go from a D1 tape in 1986 to miniDV in 1996.
But every one still had a VCR capable of playing VHS tapes that had the ability to record at best maybe 240 lines of resolution with tech from the 1970’s. But most TV were still relatively small at maybe 19-25 inches. Unless you were fortunate to have a projection TV.
That is why the past looks so blurry.
At least now with some video editing programs, decent transfer equipment, and the help of AI, you can clean and enhance some photos and videos to nearly HD quality. It might take awhile to process.

I might have to make a pilgrimage to visit the “Dolly Parton” Bridge north of Mobile. I know it is not officially named that, but I think the state should rename it in honor of her instead of General W.K. Wilson Jr. Bridge.
Maybe someone could start a shrine and drop off some flowers at foot of the bridge.

I guess paying $17 billon is better than having to pay the $1.5 trillion the states were asking for.
This is why I hate attorneys and made up or over estimated numbers. There is no way damages to the states could reach a billion dollars let alone a trillion dollars.
This is just a cash grab and the only ones making money off the deal are attorneys working for their third.
