Two words for the yout: "frozen grapefruit" - South Auckland yout fire frozen grapefruit from pvc tubes - a tough version of potato guns. Auckland has lotsa grapefruit trees in the streets, the only city I've lived in where you could get breakfast from the street
potato gun Unscrew the plug at the back, and give a short burst of hair spray. Note that the amount of fuel is VERY critical; too much will not ignite, and not enough will give you a poor shot. Other references suggest WD-40; try just about any aerosol, but avoid things like liquid oxygen, as PVC shrapnel is difficult to remove.
"Never seen a gun like that," Rydell allowed. "What's it shoot?" "Grapefruit cans," Turvey said. "Fulla concrete." "No shit?" "Watch," Turvey said, and brought the thing to his shoulder. It had a sort of breech, very intricately machined, a trigger-thing like part of a pair vise-grip pliers, and a couple of flexible tubes. The latter ran down, Rydell saw, to a great big canister of gas, - Gibson "Virtual Light"

We have been trying to suppress agrarian guerillas in the southern Philippines since the day we took the islands from the Spanish in 1898. We called the peasant rebels Moros and then Huks, now they are being called some kind of “militant” or “terrorist” group, like the Abu Sayyaf. The endless American attempt to squelch whomever it is in the southern Philippines who seem to have a mind of their own is even interwoven with the story of the legendary Colt .45 Automatic Pistol. That weapon with its massive blasting power had been specifically designed to be used against the Moro and Huk rebels in close comba
Under the agreement signed on Sunday, Russia would supply fuel for 10 years, after which Iran plans to make its own fuel. The head of Russia's atomic energy agency, Alexander Rumyantsev, said the first batch of enriched uranium fuel was in Siberia ready to be shipped.... Sunday's deal could start the countdown to an attack by the US or Israel to destroy Iran's nuclear facilities before nuclear fuel is delivered, in order to avoid radioactive fallout.
Solar Tower, Jefferyi, Haribon, Caspian oil, SaudiBinLaden Group
In "Beyond the Rubicon" Michael C. Ruppert says SBG (SaudiBinLaden Group) owns the iridium satellites. But Howard Altman in "Phil in the Blanks" says "..Iridium satellites --..originally funded in no small part by the SBG (Eventually, Iridium LLC went bankrupt and its assets, including the satellites, were purchased by a group that has no connection to SBG.)" so what is Usama's number? Ruppert has some wacky ideas about computers that can read everything, but his ideas on Caspian oil are interesting. It was late in the year 2000 that it was realised that Caspian oil was not another Saudi field, but only 1/10th of that. Hence the panic. June 2001: new rules discouraged fighter interception of errant airliners. The rest is History.

Its often said that rich countries are cleaner than poor countries. so we should concentrate on development not environment But: 1) UnClean on a global scale: looks clean but about to cook the planet ClimateChangeGases
Recent simulations suggest 11° warming is a possibility The planet hasnt been there since the planetoid bombardments stopped. can anyone say "Runaway Greenhouse" "Venus"
energy is invisibly dirty note: Clear skies seen when power plants stopped recently for 2 days in NE-USA no Contrails in the air over USA on 12Sep01 so "clean rich" is relative 2) waste disposal: rich send old circuit boards to be cooked over crude fires in China 3) rich send polluting factories to Mexico 4) rich do not help the poor. except: 1940s & 50s the USA ordered land reform in Japan,SKorea,Taiwan hence Industry in those lands The USA did not order land reform in Philippines: hence Latafundias and poverty 5) rich lend money to elites, payed back by the masses 6) cut flowers and strawberries grown on poor peoples land where once food grew
What is to be done?
Factor4: energy efficiency is not "NoGrowth" its "SmartGrowth" pumps, ducts, heat exchangers, process heat Smart glass Thermal building design , ventilation Sensors, switches, changing to conditions the efficient future involves lots of fussy maintenance of pumps, vents, heat exchangers retrofitting of Solar thermal & electric on roofs (its not risk free, lots of people are going to die falling off those roofs)
The point is that this could mean economic growth with less exhausts Monbiot is partially correct, growth must have a limit. but a few billion$ invested in large scale PhotoVoltaic production could mean jobs, economic growth and clean skies. Government currently picks winners - big Carbon gets huge subsidies. BigCarbon have been winners since 1760, but not anymore. Time for Govt subsidies for PV fuelcell & biomass But these are de-central, so big Govt has no incentive, So PV will have to make it on its own Wind generators are doing ok in Old Europe
Are cars for transport or excitement? if for transport 30kw is plenty, electric hybrids with 10kw petrol engine are adequate 30kph is plenty fast enough to get around town In my fathers day, the entire town of Woodville took the train for a town picnic. My grandfather, the town cop, had the first car in 1922
If cars are for excitement, or to impress women, then there is no limit on size or power or gas emissions. This is the weak link of Homo Sap. Sexual selection has no limit. The tiger puts a paw on the peacocks tail.

But if these covert ops were tragedy, the Chavez plot was farce. The rapid unraveling of the coup suggested that the Venezuelan plotters would have done better seeking advise from Supreme Court Justice Rehnquist rather than from Reich. It soon became public that Bush officials maintained a web of connections with the conspirators and appeared to have foreknowledge of the plot. Using the same conduit Reagan used to fund the contras, the National Endowment for Democracy, the administration had funneled money to Venezuelan opposition.

The hour is late...he is doing his best to get drunk. Standing off in a corner, trademark shades in place, stoned as usual, he looks oddly depressed. This is not his kind of crowd. Everyone appears to be over thirty. They are wearing suits and ties. None of them is stoned. And they are all so calm. That is the real problem: none of them is crazy. They wouldn’t understand the demons that live in his head. He drains his glass in a gulp and orders another drink. And then another. Buy the end of the evening, he will have had many drinks, and will still be sober. It is his special curse: to be able to fill his body with alcohol and drugs, and always have it function; never to be able to blot out what he has seen, what he knows. And looking around, he knows that it is over: the revolution, the fighting, the chance to be different. The counterculture has become The Culture, and out there in the streets is the proof....

socialistworker.co.uk I ran into the kitchen to put on my veil, since men were going to enter our house and it would be wrong for them to see me with my hair uncovered. This saved my life.

The soldiers came into the house and caught my older sister. They beat her. Then they shot her.

I love spiders. These 2 make orb webs in my yard. The furry one was at face level when I walked into her web.

Anyway huntsmen are docile, brush into a pan, and they will generally sit still while you carry them outside.

ward_churchill_responds* It is not disputed that the Pentagon was a military target, or that a CIA office was situated in the World Trade Center. Following the logic by which U.S. Defense Department spokespersons have consistently sought to justify target selection in places like Baghdad, this placement of an element of the American "command and control infrastructure" in an ostensibly civilian facility converted the Trade Center itself into a "legitimate" target. Again following U.S. military doctrine, as announced in briefing after briefing, those who did not work for the CIA but were nonetheless killed in the attack amounted to no more than "collateral damage." If the U.S. public is prepared to accept these "standards" when the are routinely applied to other people, they should be not be surprised when the same standards are applied to them. ______________________ Ward in 2003
ratville The first line of defense by the Germans at Nuremberg was, "You can't try us for what you're trying to try us for. You're saying we're in violation of the Kellogg-Briand Pact [17] which outlaws aggressive warfare. We didn't sign it. We're not a party to that treaty. We can't therefore be prosecuted for violating it. What we did, we did within the parameters of legitimacy defined by our own domestic law. What we did was legal." And they said, "No. No. This is how it works boys. Customary law establishes the threshold of compliance for all nations. You're bound to comply with customary law whether you specifically agree with it or not. You violate it at your own peril."

I heard that, in the last year alone, the US had fired 127 tons of depleted uranium (DU) munitions in Iraq, the radioactive equivalent of approximately ten thousand Nagasaki bombs. I heard that the widespread use of DU in the first Gulf War was believed to be the primary cause of the health problems suffered by its 580,400 veterans, of whom 467 were wounded during the war itself. Ten years later, 11,000 were dead and 325,000 on medical disability. DU carried in semen led to high rates of endometriosis in their wives and girlfriends, often requiring hysterectomies. Of soldiers who had healthy babies before the war, 67 per cent of their postwar babies were born with severe defects, including missing legs, arms, organs or eyes.
