I hate the tv

Bullshit. Bullshit! bullshit. This study from the Reason Foundation makes an interesting read for anyone who’s dieing to avoid the obvious facts. There are no numbers produced and no scientific rigor exercised.

So many holes that I won’t even address them, except with this (from this website):

According to the 1999 Reason Foundation Annual Report, top funders include: C. Boyden Gray and David Koch (each individually contributed $25,000 or more in 1999), the Lynde and Harry Bradley Foundation, the JM Foundation, Charles G. Koch Foundation, Lilly Endowmet, Scaife Family Foundation, Sarah Scaife Foundation, Smith Richardson Foundation, and the Sunmark Foundation. Corporate Donors in 1999 included: American Farm Bureau Federation, American Forest and Paper Association, American Petroleum Institute, American Plastics Council, ARCO Foundation, BP Amoco, CA Building Industry Association, Chemical Manufacturers Association, Chevron Corporation, Chlorine Chemistry Council, Clorox, Coca-Cola, American and Continental Airlines, Daimler Chrysler Corp, Dow Chemical, Eastman Chemical, Edison Electric Institute, ENRON, Exxon Mobil, FMC Corporation, Ford Motor Company, General Motors, Kimberly-Clark, Koch Industries, Koch Materials, Eli Lilly, Microsoft, National Air Transportation Association, National Beer Wholesalers, National Soft Drink Association, Pfizer, Inc, Philip Morris, Procter and Gamble, Shell Oil, Sun America, Union Carbide Corporation, United Airlines, Western States Petroleum, Watson Land Company, Whole Foods Market, Winston and Strawn.

They obviously have an agenda.

I ran into it via this, then this.

I want it!…

and it doubles as a couples robotic love seat:

Bidding starts at 100,000 USD.

As a goof I asked the seller how much shipping would be to Tehran, Iran. I hope they, and the HSA goons which are no doubt tapping this, have a sense of humor. Cheers guys!

Look into his eyes…

Meet Tom Bearden. He’s the co-inventor of the Motionless Electromagnetic Generator, or MEG, a device which provides a net positive amount of energy by pulling it out of another dimension. Don’t believe it….Well look here smarty pants a working prototype:

When I get some spare time, I’ve been planning on building a windmill to generate some power convert some wind energy into electrical energy. Maybe I’ll just build one of these instead….wonder if he’ll provide schematics.

I found out about tom after running into his Lecture on Soviet Weather Engineering. Its pretty interesting stuff,  especially the pictoral examples; a must for physics buffs and majors.  Someone send that man a fisheye! =)
I’d like to believe it and the above stuff about the MEG, but its difficult to be convinced with the small amount of understanding of the items which I have now. But trust me, If I get a MEG to work, you’ll hear about it. Stay tuned.

Nicely done. This reminds me of the CPR dummies we had in high school. Those were pretty sick now that I think about it. And I wonder how much they paid for it.

Thanks Layer8.

*referring to an MC Chris Lyric…not trying to repress robo-women.

So the other day was 4/20, and most young people were celebrating the numerical co-incidence commonly associated with pot. Others, including myself, remembered the Collumbine shootings which occurred in 1999 and were orchestrated to occur on 4/20, which was Adolph Hitler’s birthday.

Today I was cleaning my desk of worthless receipts, and I noticed that I bought gas in Littleton, CO while I was passing through Denver on the way back from Vail, CO. I wondered how close I was to where the shootings took place and did a little search for “littleton high school shooting map” which gave me an interesting first result: “SCHOOL SHOOTINGS HAVE A PATTERN THAT IMPLICATE THE PRESIDENT AND HIS GOVERNMENT — GUN CONTROL IS THE OBJECTIVE! BLACK MAGICK WITCHCRAFT IS THE POWER!” They show this nice map:

The site goes on to say that the school shootings have been orchestrated by the Illuminati…and they make the shape of the horns of some beast. In my opinion they missed a few….or cherry picked at least..

With that many points I could probably write my name.

They also say that the results match up to some electro-magnetometer mumbo jumbo meter reading that was measured in Alaska….

The idea of plotting one thing against another is a great way to figure out something….I’d just like to see a more useful plot…of say poverty vs school shootings….or gun population vs school shootings…..cow hormone additives (in milk) consumption vs school shootings…etc.

The weather control stuff which reminds me a lot of a lecture by Tom “I’ll buy a fisheye lens when I can afford it” Bearden. The lecture is fascinating because he explains things in terms of physics that I can’t follow…..talk of a few extra dimensions here and there which energy can be pulled from and pushed to. If you’re in on a rainy day with nothing to do, I highly suggest watching it. I watch it with the hope that he’s not a crackpot and that he’ll prove it to me sometime, but I haven’t been convinced otherwise yet. Oh yea, he also created a machine which creates energy from nothing, breaking the first law of classical thermodynamics….

Kevin O’Connor of University College Dublin and his colleagues heated polystyrene foam, the generic name for Styrofoam, to convert it to styrene oil…and then…. fed this styrene oil to the soil bacteria Pseudomonas putida, which converted it into biodegradable plastic known as PHA (polyhydroxyalkanoates).

Must have been pretty cold to get this to work.
Perhaps the Mpemba Effect helped them out
