ERCOT Urging For Energy Conservation
There has been a new widened fire break put in place on the north and east side of the fire as well as “many” rounds of the orange fire retardant from plane drops. They are throwing all resources into keeping it from spreading that direction.

I took the question as level of politician and level of care by the Japanese populace. Not necessarily aligned with politics and same color.

Showed it to my cousin and he said, “Late May? Holstein cow with a stillborn hanging out. They’ll roam until they die somewhere.” Me: ok then. Sorry I asked. Back to watching this wonderful baseball game.

Ivan Melendez: Collegiate Baseball National Player of the Year
He’s not even in the top 100 draft prospects according to most sites. MLB draft is not like nfl. I don’t even try to guess where someone like Ivan might go. Here’s the mlb.com draft stock write up. couting grades: Hit: 50 | Power: 60 | Run: 30 | Arm: 50 | Field: 40 | Overall: 45 “Melendez starred for two seasons at Odessa (Texas) JC before transferring to Texas in 2021, when he led the Longhorns with 13 homers, including a ninth-inning game winner off eventual national champion Mississippi State at the College World Series. Scouts viewed him as a one-tool player and his bonus expectations didn't line up with their evaluations, so he dropped to the Marlins in the 16th round and declined to sign. He has been phenomenal as a fourth-year junior and has a chance to win the NCAA Division I triple crown and lead in all three slash stats after finishing the regular season at .421/.531/.941 with 28 homers and 85 RBI in 54 games. With the strength in his 6-foot-3, 225-pound frame and an uphill right-handed swing, Melendez is geared to drive balls in the air and produces plus-plus raw power that plays from foul pole to foul pole. He doesn't have standout bat speed, so there are some concerns about how he'll handle quality velocity against more advanced pitchers. He's doing a much better job of controlling the strike zone this spring and has improved his ability to do damage against breaking balls and changeups. Melendez still doesn't offer much value beyond his bat and a righty-hitting first baseman is the least attractive profile for pro teams. He's a well below-average runner with limited range and an average arm. He's an adequate defender at first base and his only other alternative is DH.”

New UK visa for world’s top graduates
From the gov.uk website on this graduate visa it sounds similar to the US STEM extension. You get two years after you graduate. Maybe you find long term employment that will sponsor you on a skilled worker visa. If not, you go home. Re: no path to longer stay From their website: If you want to stay longer in the UK You cannot extend your HPI visa. However, you may be able to switch to a different visa, for example a Skilled Worker visa.
