who I think is more pessimistic than any other generation about even the chance that they`ll ever be homeowners.

 

Now, young Americans have been battling a one-two punch of high home prices and painful mortgage rates.

 

one-two puch
two bad events that happen close together

 

 how these two things work

High prices are fairly straightforward.

it`s likely the most expensive purchase you`ll ever make,

A mortgage rate is how much you`ll have to pay to borrow money to make that purchase

 the wet blanket of spring right now.

 

 

wet blanket

One that discourages enjoyment or enthusiasm.

 

Home ownership, which has traditionally been a vehicle of wealth accumulation for the typical American household, is just unavailable to a large segment of the population. 

 

vehicle
A medium through which something is transmitted, expressed, or accomplished:

we really have a kind of a tale of two Americas that`s emerged.

 

 

but inflation has been really stubborn

televised presidential debates have provided us with extraordinary, decisive moments, which often changed the tenor of the race.

deftly-> deft

-Quick and skillful; adroit. => dexterous.

 

I am not going to exploit, for political purposes, my opponent`s youth and inexperience.

 

, which teed up his opponent, Lloyd Bentsen, perfectly.

-To put someone or something into a position of readiness for some imminent action. 

 

There were the wordless missteps, the body language gaffes.

 just over a week after entering a new term in office. 

He has now extended his autocratic rule until 2030, 

as they`ve been suffering some setbacks on the battlefield

Ukrainians are acknowledging that the Russians have gained some ground there, 

press that offensive

 the U.S. is back to stay

some of the U.S. weapons that have been pledged have already arrived on the battlefield and others are on the way.

they`re quite short on ammunition and on weapons, 

 

one of the biggest issues for Ukraine`s forces fighting in the northeast of the country is Russian air power and the ability of the Russian Air Force to be much more effective than before

 

Household waste

Let`s dive into the pros and cons of this technology and examine how these facilities could change the game for waste treatment and energy production

it`s hard to imagine that anything here could be of further use,

It`s a tried and tested method that has existed for over a century.

 

We operate at a 34% efficiency of producing electricity, which is much higher than it would normally be expected from an energy-front waste plant. 

 

Landfills are piling up and there`s an urgent need for a way out.

 

At Warsan, besides the energy produced, waste metal is recycled and leftover ash is used for building roads.

 

Sulfur and heavy metal contaminants are filtered and taken away.

 

Only the 200 tons of flue gas residue is the net waste at the end of 5,500 tons of waste going in per day.

 

*flue gas 煙道, 熱気送管

 

 a holistic solution

 

 If we look at things from a circular economy standpoint, turning that plastic bottle back into a plastic bottle is by far going to have the least amount of energy consumption. And first, of course, would be just minimizing waste from the get-go. For example, less packaging or no packaging.

 

 

 

plaque and bacteria in your mouth can damage it.

Ever wonder why we brush with a toothbrush? It should be called a teeth brush.

 

 one dentist who provides care to an underserved population and dedicates himself to a mission much greater than himself.

 

He`s so much more than a dentist.

 

I do what I do because this is what God put me on this earth for.

ensuring dental care was given to people who were most in need. 

 

 If I can be courteous and kind and respectful and do my job and treat you good, regardless of who you are, where you are, that`s my goal.

 

 We have kids in the foster care system and we have kids in the juvenile justice system.

So that`s mind-blowing to know that if I can plant a seed in somebody, unknowingly, but just doing my job, doing the way that I do it,
it will influence them to make good decisions and be a more productive citizen.
