We're facing a huge gas shortage but not the one you think! This could be one of the most critical supply squeezes of our lifetimes … for a gas that is oddly both abundant and rare. And tech giants are about to find themselves fighting for who gets the leftovers, while the next explorer to make a discovery will probably reward investors multiple times over.

WHAT A GUY!
Just in case you were wondering why 60 Minutes had a hit piece on this Paisan - the Governor of Florida. Anyone who criticizes him - I have a question for you - can you please post your education and service to our country resume so we can put things in perspective? 
“Ronald Dion DeSantis was born on September 14, 1978, in Jacksonville, Florida, the son of Karen (née Rogers) and Ronald DeSantis. He is of Italian descent. His family moved to Orlando, Florida, before relocating to Dunedin, Florida, when he was six years old. In 1991, he was a member of the Little League team from Dunedin National that made it to the Little League World Series in Williamsport, Pennsylvania.
After graduating from Dunedin High School in 1997, DeSantis attended Yale University. He was captain of Yale's varsity baseball team and joined the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity. On the Yale baseball team, DeSantis was an outfielder; as a senior in 2001, he had the team's best batting average at .336.
He graduated from Yale in 2001 with a B.A. magna cum laude in history. He then spent a year as a history teacher at the Darlington School. DeSantis then attended Harvard Law School, graduating in 2005 with a Juris Doctor cum laude.
DeSantis received his Reserve Naval officer's commission and assignment to the Judge Advocate General's Corps (JAG) in 2004 at the U.S. Naval Reserve Center in Dallas, Texas, while still a student at Harvard Law School. He completed Naval Justice School in 2005. Later that year, he received orders to the JAG Trial Service Office Command South East at Naval Station Mayport, Florida, as a prosecutor. In 2006, he was promoted from lieutenant, junior grade to lieutenant. He worked for the commander of Joint Task Force-Guantanamo (JTF-GTMO), working directly with detainees at the Guantanamo Bay Joint Detention Facility.
In 2007, DeSantis reported to the Naval Special Warfare Command Group in Coronado, California, where he was assigned to SEAL Team One and deployed to Iraq[18] with the troop surge as the Legal Advisor to the SEAL Commander, Special Operations Task Force-West in Fallujah.
DeSantis returned to the U.S. in April 2008, at which time he was reassigned to the Naval Region Southeast Legal Service. The U.S. Department of Justice appointed him to serve as an Assistant U.S. Attorney[18] at the U.S. Attorney's Office in the Middle District of Florida. DeSantis was assigned as a trial defense counsel until his honorable discharge from active duty in February 2010. He concurrently accepted a reserve commission as a lieutenant in the Judge Advocate General's Corps of the US Navy Reserve. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal, the Navy and Marine Corps Commendation Medal, the Global War on Terrorism Service Medal and the Iraq Campaign Medal.

The 57-year-old suspect in Wednesday’s San Jose Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) shooting used two handguns to carry out the heinous act. So, we should ban AR-15s....

Good guy with a gun stops a bad guy from doing bad things to a little girl. A teacher at Ogden, Utah’s Lincoln Elementary was keeping an eye on the kids during recess when he noticed a man lingering around the playground. He noticed the man walk up to an 11-year-old girl and attempt to take her. The teacher confronted the man & was able to get all 20-student back into the school. The suspect then began punching the window in an attempt to force his way inside. The teacher produced his firearm and held the suspect until police arrived. A true hero!

"A large percentage of our country doesn't know of or care about Normandy, perhaps even being removed from the text in History Books.
A few weekends ago, British artist Jamie, accompanied by numerous volunteers, took to the beaches of Normandy with rakes and stencils in hand to etch 9,000 silhouettes representing fallen people into the sand. Titled The Fallen 9000, the piece is meant as a stark visual reminder of those who died during the D-Day beach landings at Arromanches on June 6th, 1944 during WWII. 
The original team consisted of 60 volunteers, but as word spread nearly 500 additional localresidents arrived to help with the temporary installation that lasted only a few hours before being washed away by the tide.  [Note from AG:   BE SURE TO SCROLL ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE COMMENT AT THE VERY END]
9,000 Fallen Soldiers Etched into the Sand on Normandy Beach to Commemorate Peace Day on September 25, 2013
"What is surprising is that I saw nothing about this here in the US.  An overseas friend sent it with a note of gratitude for what the US started there."
