Crude prices in flux due to an increase in COVID-19 cases and vaccine optimism
The Week
Gas prices across the region continued to increase this week, but at a slower pace than the week before. Price increases have been seen nationwide over the last few weeks. The last time the nation saw a substantial January pump price increase was in 2009. That year, the national gas price average jumped 23 cents inside of the first three weeks of the year. At that time U.S. gasoline demand and supply were lower and crude oil prices had been increasing, similar to today.
Today’s national gas price average is $2.39, up two cents in the last week, up 16 cents in the last month, and down 15 cents from this time last year.

Regardless, the Basie Center Cinemas was showing it and I was in. The cast included Carey Mulligan, Ralph Fiennes along with Lily James….I was in.

This past year, and some may argue, these past four years, have been the most politically divisive and polarizing in our lifetime, possibly in the history of our great republic.
As I looked at recent events in Washington D.C, I questioned how we got here.
I was at a loss for an answer until I attended Borough of Highlands council meetings and realized that the rancor that we are witnessing at the national level, starts at the local level.
It is nourished and nurtured by our neighbors elected to represent the people, but in realty represent their own agenda.
