Emergency car generator


           HOW HARD CAN IT BE?


About every other year, for the past 10, I've publicly wondered how car manufacturers have failed to implement one of the greatest consumer device ideas ever.  I speak of course about using the car's silent running  engine and 20 gallon fuel tank to power an emergency generator (that people stand in line during power outages to pay $400 + for)..  This re-triggered the thought.  Here's the secret drawings.

 There are enough engineers out there to partner up with me to develop and sell a unit that homeowners can easily install themselves. Or have installed.

  I'm waiting for my half of the billions of dollars in profit to start pouring into my wallet. . Who wants in?  tap tap tap ....

Depleted Uranium Shotgun Shells

Lucky Gunner's Drone Shells - A Product Courtesy of LuckyGunner.com




Details

Big Brother is watching, and with modern technology, if Big Brother can see it, he can turn it into a giant smoking crater with just the press of a button. Even your secret remote wilderness bunker is no match for today’s military drones. In partnership with Tacnition Ammo, Lucky Gunner is happy to introduce a new way for you to fight back against the All Seeing Eye with our new anti-drone shotgun loads.

Years of research and development have gone into these highly effective 12 gauge shells that can turn even Joe Biden’s double barrel shotgun into an instant anti-aircraft platform. Specially formulated propellant is capable of launching 9 pellets of depleted uranium rounds up to 1 km straight up into the air. With accurate shot placement, this armor piercing buckshot will disable vital systems on modern military drones. At minimum, the force of impact will disable navigation systems, but in over 60% of our field tests, the drones were incapable of remaining airborne after contact with our Anti-Drone Loads.

NOTE: Drone Loads are intended for entertainment use only and not intended to be used in any manner not in accordance with federal and local laws. Lucky Gunner assumes no responsibility for any illegal activity involving Tacnition Drone Ammo.

FLY STORY

OBAMUNISM, The Party,
The lawsuit that might kill ObamaCare ...
in a lawful nation, anyway

Res Ipsa Loquitor

    A challenge filed by the Pacific Legal Foundation contends that the Affordable Care Act is unconstitutional because the bill originated in the Senate, not the House. Under the Origination Clause of the Constitution, all bills raising revenue must begin in the House.

    The Supreme Court upheld most provisions of the act in June, but Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. took pains in the majority opinion to define Obamacare as a federal tax, not a mandate. That was when the Sacramento, Calif.-based foundation’s attorneys had their “aha” moment.

    “The court there quite explicitly says, ‘This is not a law passed under the Commerce Clause; this is just a tax,’” foundation attorney Timothy Sandefur said at a Cato Institute forum on legal challenges to the health care act. “Well, then the Origination Clause ought to apply. The courts should not be out there carving in new exceptions to the Origination Clause.” [FULL]

Works just fine in the laboratory, but in our Obama world it's just another troublesome fly.

This is interesting.  I was doing a "Resume Play" on NetFlix (via ROKU) when this message popped up

"Under the terms of your agreement you have exceeded your allowed usage.  Please go to the ROKU menu and try again later."

It quickly disappeared and  I re-clicked TOP GEAR, but it sent me to episode #1, and not #132 which I had been viewing (recently added 2012 TOP GEAR episodes).   The fact that this message was even prepared  indicates that ROKU (or NetFlix?) are preparing to begin charging for view after a a certain monthly threshold is reached. Maybe they were testing a new, yet to be announced system,  and this was prematurely triggered.  If they begin charging I'm gone; there are other options. Anyone else had this experience? 




Texas Gold

       WHAT THIS GUMMINT DOES
    
    
The Yellow Gold of Texas

Res Ipsa Loquitor

“The eyes of Texas are upon you” goes the song, but right now those eyes seem to be squarely focused on the financial crisis in Cyprus.

“We don’t want just the certificates. We want our gold. And if you’re the state of Texas, you should be able to get your gold,” said Capriglione.

However, he concedes transporting $1 billion worth of gold bars would be impractical, so he suggests selling the gold and repurchasing it in Texas.
Texas Gov. Rick Perry is supporting a bill that would return the state’s $1 billion in gold reserves currently stored by the Federal Reserve at a vault in New York to the state.

Capriglione said his bill is, “not about putting Texas on its own gold standard, [but instead will] give the state a reputation as being more financially secure in the event of a national or international financial crisis.”

“If we own it,” Perry told Glenn Beck last week, “I will suggest to you that that’s not someone else’s determination whether we can take possession of it back or not.”
  [FULL]


First off, I had no idea that states, at least Texas, have their own gold bullion stash.  Second is the question of whether the actual physical gold still there?  Former Rep. Ron Paul (R TX) tried to get Fort Knox audited, and failed.  Think about that.  A senior U.S. congressman could not get past the Feds to see if our stuff is still there! 

Next; the Obamas have Texas and Rick Perry on their short list of people to destroy, now more than ever since Texas reuses "to cave to Obamacare’s call for states to accept Medicaid expansions. "

Finally, as aside, the killing of two prosecutors, in two months, including a district attorney and his wife  gunned down in their home bears watching.  The media have focused on "white supremacists," which is their go-to culprit in any shooting.  .If the prosecutors were from Austin, nobody would care, but this whole thing feels hinky to me.  I'm just saying.

I'm sure that you too see these "gun charts" all over the place.  Almost all are designed to show that gun owners are psychopaths and the USA leads the world in gun crime.  So this one is unusual.  Still, like the others, no authority is cited, so it means squat.  But—from what we do know,  it's a damn sight more accurate than the usual fare.

Raja, 

Somewhere between the release of the 1984 Band Aid single and Al Gore’s 2006 documentary An Inconvenient Truth, political attention shifted away from such problems. The idea of people (especially old people) dying in their homes from conditions with which we are all familiar now seems relatively boring.

Much political attention is still focused on global warming, and while schemes to help Britain prepare for the cold are being cut, the overseas aid budget is being vastly expanded. Saving elderly British lives has somehow become the least fashionable cause in politics.
[FULL]
Here is a great article from The Telegraph that should get a lot of exposure.  The British people, especially the elderly, are suffering … from cold winters.  They are dying because of government measures against global warming, which are making fuel prices more expensive.  Some people cannot afford the fuel, and must choose between food and warmth.

I think this would be a staple for Soylent Green, whose site was shut down for breaking some rule or another by his provider.  Any idea where he’s hiding out lately?  A new site perhaps?

Back to the story line, a really conservative government would start charging the Sir This and Lord That of the UK with murder, for what they are doing to kill the elderly.  Throw in the Inconvenient Al, who should be forced to answer for his crimes as well.

Pizza Oven v Pizza Stone

                   
                    

Great Follow-ups

Actually this is about using a real pizza oven.  Awhile back I told you about being given this counter top Hobart oven   The problem with it was where to put it?  If it was up to me, I'd leave it on the counter, but MoSup is Miss Tidy so that was not an option.  I temporarily stored it on a little table against a far wall, and prepared for having to get rid of it.  She has been dropping a lot of "ahems" lately. 

Alternative.  I bought a pizza stone.

Even if it worked as well as the Hobart (and it does not), the requirement of heating the stone for an hour bugs me.  Not only is that a lot of power being consumed by an empty oven, but the results were not comparable.  Good, yes; but not as good.

The oven on the other hand reaches heat in about five minutes, and will finish up to 4 pizzas in 12 minutes  So
here's the plan.  Let's hope it works.

These voters propelled Republican candidates in the historic 2010 midterm elections that saw Republicans take back the House of Representatives on the backs of Tea Party voters.

Titled "Loaded for Bear," the video shows footage and headlines from mainstream media outlets like Politico referring to Palin as a "kingmaker" and conservative outlets like Fox News acknowledging how successfully Palin has used her star-power to help elect conservative candidates to office.

       WHAT GUMMINT DOES

I'm not a gambler but I found this article by Damian Housman interesting.


A few days ago I read an article (below) that said that Nevada has approved an online gaming license for 888, the online poker and gambling company, based in Gibraltar. I first learned of 888 while traveling in Greece nearly three years ago. Their billboards were absolutely everywhere, and all featured their spokes model, Julia. Now, it seems, I'll be able to actually play on their site.

This will not impact anyone living outside Nevada who wants to sign up, but for those of us who do live there, this is a welcome event. It's just a matter of time, I guess. Until now, I've been playing on World Poker Tour (a not-for-money site), and very occasionally America's Cardroom (a money site). America's Cardroom incorporates a site I joined many years ago, Doyle's Room (which had been owned by poker star Doyle Brunson), but it has too few members playing at any one time to be certain of a game.

I attempted to sign up, but was unable to. They still haven't updated their software to allow Americans, specifically Nevadans, to join. In fact, I sent 888 an e-mail asking about joining, when my attempt to failed, and they sent me the usual form response saying they don’t allow Americans to play.

I sent a second e-mail, asking about the article, below. This is their response:

“888 is very pleased to announce that the Nevada Gaming Commission has recently approved the licensing of 888 as an Interactive Gaming Service Provider, allowing 888 to work with licensed Nevada operators to offer legalized online Poker to players physically located in the US state of Nevada. This makes 888 one of the first online gaming companies to be licensed by any US jurisdiction.

Skoonj
, unfortunately we can’t give you final timelines yet, but we look forward to working with our Nevada partners and to the re-launching of 888's online poker offering in Nevada in the near future, so watch out for further news!”

OK, so we have bad news (no poker yet) and good news (it is indeed coming), and between the lines news. Notice that the article, below, and the most recent e-mail response, mention “Nevada partners.” Indeed, the article states: “the license will allow 888 to power Caesars Interactive Entertainment's WSOP poker brand, and support slot machine manufacturer WMS Gaming in offering an online product to its customers.”

OK, so what does that mean? It means that 888 will work with Caesars Interactive Entertainment (Caesars owns the World Series of Poker, and there is a WSOP interactive game), as well as slots manufacturer WMS Gaming. I think I once told you that Caesars is a big time supporter of Harry Reid, Barack Obama, and the Democrats generally. Considering where they have properties (Las Vegas, the Chicago suburbs, etc.), they virtually have to grease many Democrat palms. But this is hugely different. And, it puts in context the entire charade we went through of shutting down internet poker, then reconstituting it only when Caesars, Reid, Obama, and the Democrats can take a huge cut.

This is how our politicians operate these days. They fleece us in every way imaginable.

2. “The first time you blow someone away is not an insignificant event. That said, there are some assholes in the world that just need to be shot.” (Business Insider)

More of "the best quotes"
The Marine Corps Times is calling Mattis the “most revered Marine in a generation.”

Mattis has been commander of the United States Central Command since 2010 and led the 1st Marine Division into Iraq in 2003.

According to reports, President Barack Obama decided to force the Marine Corps legend out early because he rubbed civilian officials the wrong way, and forced them to answer tough questions regarding Iran.
Mattis was an inspirational leader of men and his powerful words will go down in history.

from The Examiner

What do more people have access to: toilets or cell phones?

If you guessed the latter, you'd be correct. A new United Nations study found that more people around the world have access to a cell phone than to a working toilet. Of the world's 7 billion people, 6 billion have access to phones. Only about 4.5 billion have access to toilets. India alone is responsible for 60 percent of the world's population that don't have working toilets -- about 626 million people. Compare that to the 1 billion cell phones in India. In response, the United Nations is launching an effort to halve the number of those without access to toilets by the end of 2015.
