Topic: Not so Happy
The decision also suggests that a majority of the court has concerns about the EPA’s authority to impose the CPP under the Clean Air Act. The CPP, whatever its policy merits, is based on a fairly aggressive reading of the relevant provisions of the Clean Air Act, most notably Section 111. Even some liberal scholars, such as Harvard’s Laurence Tribe, have raised questions about the EPA’s authority here. ( Tribe is also an attorney on one of the stay applications filed with the court. )
There are serious legal arguments against specific elements of the CPP ( such as the consideration of potential emission reductions to be achieved “outside the fence” of regulated facilities ) as well as the position that Section 111 of the CAA allows the EPA to regulate greenhouse gases from power plants in the first place. The latter concerns raise the stakes of the case and strengthen the argument for a stay. This is because the question at issue is not merely whether the EPA observed the relevant procedural niceties or properly exercised its authority on the margin. Rather, the question is whether the EPA has the authority to do this at all.

I have a Panansonic 42″ Wide Plasma Display that works great and needs a new home. It’s a display, not a true TV (doesn’t have composite video input or HDMI) but it does support DVD/VCR and computer inputs great and has speaker outputs. See the manual through the link below for the technical details. Would be great for a business to run images on or movies or such.
https://panasonic.ca/PCS/OperatingInstructions/TH42PWD4UY-OI-Eng.pdfIt’s in good working condition, has the remote and I’ll throw in a wall mounting bracket for it.
Asking $50. Come and get it!

This was a gift when my son was born and though it was set up it was never used. My son never took to a crib and went from bassinet to co-sleeping to floor bed. We bought the Toddler Bed Conversion Rail as well but it was never used. The is a 3 in 1-going from crib, to toddler bed (with kit bought extra), to big kid bed (full size headboard). New this complete bed and conversion cost around $1500. https://www.rhbabyandchild.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=rhbc_prod379000&categoryId=rhbc_cat361051
We are selling it for $800. Currently it is broken down, but will fully assemble for buyer so they can check that it is fully functional and together. We also have an organic mattress and Restoration Hardware crib bedding set (minus the comforter) if interested. It is a really beautiful bed for any child to grown into. Please message me with any questions or if interested in purchasing.
