California Will Enforce The Energy-Efficient Lightbulb Rule Trump Wants To Reverse

California can now begin enforcing new minimum standards for light bulb efficiency, a federal judge ruled Tuesday. Itā€™s the latest split between the state and the Trump administration, which has moved to reverse the same standards on a national level.

The judge rejected a petition for a temporary block by two industry groups, the National Electrical Manufacturers Association and the American Lighting Association. The ALA says itā€™s ā€œconferring with counsel on next steps.ā€

The standards were adopted by the California Energy Commission (CEC) after the Trump administration recently moved to roll them back.

Iā€™m gonna need to know the race of the driver and the children before I go with:

A) Obviously the driver over-reacted, but really those kids should know better.

B) THUG ANIMAL!!! The death penalty is too lenient.

C) Meh, probably more to the story. Maybe the driver was on drugs.

D) LOL [closest large city]

Iā€™ll leave the reader to deduce the combination of races for each.

Two days in of smoke everywhere and I feel quite depressed. Keep saying to myself I should be thankful weā€™re not facing any fires but the low feeling persists. I canā€™t even bugger off and visit friends or family interstate to get away from it as everyone I speak to says itā€™s the same where they are.

reddit malefashionadvice is better but itā€™s not all that user friendly.

Shirts should hit your crotch and no lower, roll your sleeves, get some chelsea boots, layer. Winter is awesome because sweaters.

Justin Jackson is the best, I assume heā€™s going to be blackballed when his contract is up at the latest.

Iā€™m not sure where you are living these days, but in most parts of the country itā€™s a little chilly right now to wear half a shirt.

That cock ring thing looks nice though. And the two right shoes. And the Adidas t-shirt with Nike shoes.
