Why you should care about a helium shortage | 60 Minutes​

Helium, most closely associated with party balloons, but critical for far more, is facing supply chain issues due to the war with Iran. The shortage has left American industry desperate for answers.

Trump and Netanyahu Want to 'Finish the Job' on Iran - The Ron Paul Institute for Peace & Prosperity

If one were seeking to create something like a modern-day folk tale based on current realities and having the theme of “good versus evil” there are any number of real-life narratives available that could be exploited to invite speculation on actual environments that might have served as models...

But can Israel take that ass whipping? By now, Iran must understand the capital of the USA is Tel Aviv and they should bomb the snot out of it...a thousand drones would be a great start from Iraq and Yemen too.
 
Went to Texas Roadhouse on Thursday 7pm. Packed to the gills and they don't serve much fish. An hour long wait to be seated.

Costco is a zoo on the weekends so we go during the week.

Restaurants are a buzz, big box stores are too.

It's a gas...

Helium is primarily used for cryogenics (cooling superconducting magnets in MRI scanners and particle accelerators), which accounts for about 32% of global consumption. Its inertness, low density, and thermal conductivity make it indispensable for semiconductor manufacturing, welding shielding, and leak detection.

Other critical applications include:
  • Space Exploration: Pressurizing and purging liquid rocket fuel tanks.
  • Medical Therapy: Breathing mixtures (heliox) for respiratory conditions like asthma and COPD.
  • Industrial Processes: Creating controlled atmospheres for growing silicon crystals and fiber optics.
  • Diving: Mixing with oxygen to prevent nitrogen narcosis in deep-sea diving.
  • Lifting: Filling balloons and airships as a safe, non-flammable alternative to hydrogen.
