I think that a takeaway curry or three is called for, and if that fails then a good helping of spam, spam, spam, spam and chips is recommended.

ANDY still RUNNING making FALSE ACCUSATIONS and LIES
thought you were being clever didnt you
so APOLOGIZE

MOG, those of us who have survived the end of the world a few times can highly recommend spam.

moaning,

The Daily Mail does seem to be prepared to look at things other newspapers won't, and has published articles about UFO's and such like before, which I thought was brave at the time, as the risk is ridicule is high for such beliefs.

I think the build up of pressure underneath Yellowstone Park in the USA is more concerning to be honest, that really could cause an extinction event if it blows, and it's rumbling away now!

[uppompeii] 07/8/2017 17:25

Thanks MOG, but did the article say how much Nibiru was worth? I've heard house prices in outer space have skyrocketed.

I've not posted on here before but I came across this:


Surely it must be right if it's in the daily mail!
I thought I'd pass it over to you guys as you seem to have a lot of expertise with these things and have lived through quite a few extiction events before.

Any advice?

Dirty beast!

I feel it every day, and twice on thursdays.

jon - I did in the 70's.

Did you feel it?

[solsticefire] 01/8/2017 18:51

Thats the spirit.

[uppompeii] 01/8/2017 08:55

Im pretty sure I would have seen it had it been 76447 miles.

[steve73] 01/8/2017 05:59

sol.. thanks for the belated warning..

So passing at 76,448 miles away, that's just less than 10x the earth's diameter (7918m)... so it would have had a pretty high chance (>1%) of actually hitting us...

It would be ironic if he had been silenced by a falling rock.

Whatever happened to corvus carcrash? Was he abducted by aliens, again?

PARIS (ENGI.FR) - French energy giant Engie (ENGI.FR) announced Friday that it has won, via its subsidiaries Engie Green, La Compagnie du Vent, CNR and Solairedirect, ten photovoltaic projects in France The framework of the second session of solar calls for tender organized by the Commission for the regulation of energy.


These projects represent 94.59 megawatts (MW) of installed capacity on the 500 MW allocated, said Engie in a press release.


"The selected projects have all been developed in consultation with local stakeholders and will use local providers as a priority and will be located only on non-agricultural land and for the most part degraded," the group added, 2 gigawatts (GW) of solar capacity installed in 2021, compared to more than 600 MW currently.

China Is Adding Solar Power at a Record Pace

Distributed solar accounts for almost a third of installations
Idled solar capacity falls 5 percentage points in period

China, the world’s biggest investor in clean energy, is on pace to install record amounts of new solar this year after adding 24 gigawatts of capacity in the first half amid a push by policy makers to locate electricity production near the point where it’s used.

Distributed solar-power projects -- the kind of solar found on industrial buildings, malls and schools -- accounted for almost a third of the new installations in the period, or 7 gigawatts, Xing Yiteng, deputy section chief in the new energy division at the National Energy Administration, said Wednesday at a conference in Beijing.

Should China maintain the first half’s torrid pace of installations, the country would easily surpass the roughly 30 gigawatts of new solar capacity it added in 2016. The continued expansion also extends China’s lead as the largest market in the world measured by the number of panels. China’s additions in the first six months of the year alone are equal to more than half of the total installed solar base in the U.S. at the end of 2016, according to data compiled by Bloomberg New Energy Finance.

“Natural demand is ramping up along with declining solar costs and the improved returns of power stations,” Alex Liu, China utilities and renewable energy analyst at UBS Securities, said in a note.

China’s demand momentum is expected to continue in the third quarter, he said.
Electricity Output

It’s not just about installing an ever-increasing number of solar panels. Electricity output from photovoltaic plants rose 80 percent in the first quarter, the National Energy Administration said in May.

GCL-Poly Energy Holdings Ltd., the world’s biggest solar-wafer maker, surged as much as 6.8 percent in Hong Kong trading on Wednesday. LONGi Green Energy Technology Co. gained as much as 7.6 percent in Shanghai, while China Singyes Solar Technologies Holdings Ltd. rose as much as 7.3 percent in Hong Kong.

The growth in distributed solar-power projects stands to help manufacturers led by JinkoSolar Holding Co. and Trina Solar Ltd. weather a slump in demand for bigger projects far from cities, where a lack of grid connections and a flood of new projects has prompted regulators to seek slower growth from that part of the industry.

About 7 percent of China’s solar-power generation was idle in the first half, down 5 percentage points from a year earlier, Xing said, signalling that more capacity is linking up to the grid.
Annual Installations

The nation could add more than 30 gigawatts of new solar capacity in 2017, though the market could face slower growth in subsequent years, Wang Bohua, secretary general of the China Photovoltaic Industry Association, told the same conference on Wednesday.

China installed a record 30 gigawatts of capacity in 2016, with most in the form of large-sized photovoltaic projects, according to data compiled by BNEF. The NEA puts last year’s additions at 34.54 gigawatts.

Clean-energy spending in China totaled $87.8 billion in 2016, BNEF said in a report published in January.
