Charley Reese's Final column!

A very interesting column. COMPLETELY NEUTRAL.

Be sure to Read the Poem at the end..

Charley Reese's final column for the Orlando Sentinel...

He has been a journalist for 49 years.

He is retiring and this is HIS LAST COLUMN. Be sure to read the Tax List at the end.

This is about as clear and easy to understand as it can be.
The article below is completely neutral, neither anti-republican or democrat.

Charlie Reese, a retired reporter for the Orlando Sentinel, has hit the nail directly on the head, defining clearly who it is that in the final analysis must assume responsibility for the judgments made that impact each one of us every day. It's a short but good read.
Worth the time.
Worth remembering!

545 vs. 300,000,000 People -By Charlie Reese

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.
Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?
Have you ever wondered, if all the politicians are against inflation and high taxes, WHY do we have inflation and high taxes?
You and I don't propose a federal budget. The President does.
You and I don't have the Constitutional authority to vote on appropriations. The House of Representatives does.
You and I don't write the tax code, Congress does.
You and I don't set fiscal policy, Congress does.
You and I don't control monetary policy, the Federal Reserve Bank does.

One hundred senators, 435 congressmen, one President, and nine Supreme Court justices equates to 545 human beings out of the 300 million are directly, legally, morally, and individually responsible for the domestic problems that plague this country.

I excluded the members of the Federal Reserve Board because that problem was created by the Congress.
In 1913, Congress delegated its Constitutional duty to provide a sound currency to a federally chartered, but private, central bank.
I excluded all the special interests and lobbyists for a sound reason. They have no legal authority. They have no ability to coerce a senator, a congressman, or a President to do one cotton-picking thing. I don't care if they offer a politician $1 million dollars in cash. The politician has the power to accept or reject it. No matter what the lobbyist promises, it is the legislator's responsibility to determine how he votes.

Those 545 human beings spend much of their energy convincing you that what they did is not their fault. They cooperate in this common con regardless of party.
What separates a politician from a normal human being is an excessive amount of gall. No normal human being would have the gall of a Speaker, who stood up and criticized the President for creating deficits.. ( The President can only propose a budget. He cannot force the Congress to accept it.)
The Constitution, which is the supreme law of the land, gives sole responsibility to the House of Representatives for originating and approving appropriations and taxes.

Who is the speaker of the House?( John Boehner. He is the leader of the majority party. He and fellow House members, not the President, can approve any budget they want. ) If the President vetoes it, they can pass it over his veto if they agree to. [The House has passed a budget but the Senate has not approved a budget in over three years. The President's proposed budgets have gotten almost unanimous rejections in the Senate in that time. ]

It seems inconceivable to me that a nation of 300 million cannot replace 545 people who stand convicted -- by present facts -- of incompetence and irresponsibility.

I can't think of a single domestic problem that is not traceable directly to those 545 people. When you fully grasp the plain truth that 545 people exercise the power of the federal government, then it must follow that what exists is what they want to exist.

If the tax code is unfair, it's because they want it unfair.
If the budget is in the red, it's because they want it in the red.
If the Army & Marines are in Iraq and Afghanistan it's because they want them in Iraq and Afghanistan ..
If they do not receive social security but are on an elite retirement plan not available to the people, it's because they want it that way.

There are no insoluble government problems. Do not let these 545 people shift the blame to bureaucrats, whom they hire and whose jobs they can abolish; to lobbyists, whose gifts and advice they can reject; to regulators, to whom they give the power to regulate and from whom they can take this power.
Above all, do not let them con you into the belief that there exists disembodied mystical forces like "the economy," "inflation," or "politics" that prevent them from doing what they take an oath to do.

Those 545 people, and they alone, are responsible. They, and they alone, have the power. They, and they alone, should be held accountable by the people who are their bosses.
Provided the voters have the gumption to manage their own employees... We should vote all of them out of office and clean up their mess!

What you do with this article now that you have read it... is up to you.
This might be funny if it weren't so true. Be sure to read all the way to the end:

Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in Which he's laid...

Put these words Upon his tomb,
'Taxes drove me to my doom...'

When he's gone,
Do not relax,

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was the most prosperous in the world.
We had absolutely no national debt, had the largest middle class in the world, and Mom stayed home to raise the kids.
What in the heck happened?
Can you spell 'politicians?'
I hope this goes around THE USA at least 545 times!!!
YOU can help it get there!!!

The CLENERGY rotary diesel engine, ready to make the second prototype.

2012-08-29T00:50:00.000-07:00

I personally am very much involved both in ultralight/L.S.A. aviation design and prototyping and in internal combustion engines design and prototyping. For my rotary engine I totally eliminated the pistons and went for a 6 cycles (the cycles are 6 also in the 4 strokes and 2 strokes engines, but they overlap, I managed to separate them for better results) rotary burning chamber that spins circular like a "brush less electric" engine (unlike the Wankel engine that "bumps" 3 times in a rotation) eliminating thus the need to convert linear movement into circular movement with gain of power, less parts, less vibrations, no need for valves, thus the valves phasing mechanisms, that makes the engine lighter, and not only, but in theory there is no RPM limit given by the return spring of the valves capacity (in practice there are limits due to air density, mechanics and so on, I limited it to 20.000,00 RPM for safety)

Due to it's conceptual particularity my engineer managed to differentiate the size of the intake and compression sector from the explosion and burning sector, giving the last one a 30% extra room, this leads to a nearly complete burning of the mix, more forced applied to the piston, less heat in the exhaust (about half of it) and also leads to acceptance 0f many different fuels in the design stage (obviously once build for a certain range of fuels, so it remains)

First prototype I made in cast iron was a 100 CC Otto engine on carburetor that weighted without starter and dynamo some 5 Kg (about the size of your both fists together) and although we hoped for 50 HP it gave only 25 HP due to a design error that induces some mechanical drag in the rotary pistons. Now I keep it with a plexiglass wall for didactic purposes.

We now have designed a 1000 CC diesel 40 to 1 compression ratio, (and we eliminated all the errors we found in the first prototype), and we calculated a power output of 200 HP pessimistically. It should probably weight with starter and dynamo and all around 50 Kg.

The beauty of this engine is the simplicity, continuous absorption of air, continuous injection/spark, continuous explosion, runs nearly like a turbine, but with an internal combustion cycle, that leads to turbine like sizes and powers with a piston like consumption and 5% of a "piston like" pollution. The number of components is one quarter than a piston engine, and requires no electronics to manage it, and the way is conceived allows even for 25 CC engines to use small car diesel injectors and fuel pump. Looking to partner with people to finalize prototyping and bring it to the markets.

The sustainable economic downsizing

2012-08-19T23:48:00.001-07:00

The thing to do that is proposed here is an old new way of living that can be expressed in the sentence "Let the machines work, while we enjoy life"

To do that we basically need to rethink as a whole and in detail the human living dominated by the absurd imperative of money accumulation, merchandise production end purchase against money, tax and profit existance.

But us, with our small possibilityes, how can we take such an approach when who governs us nowdays is sabotating such options systematically when is not straight forward forbidding them, simply because such form of society is not using banking credits nor creating taxes that for the time being are the vital blood of the economy of destruction that we practice?

Any opinion?

Basta cretinate!

2012-07-27T01:48:00.001-07:00

La fine del mondo non verrà nel 2012 in Italia in quanto il paese non ha le infrastrutture adatte per poter sostenere un evento di tale portata.

Ma potrebbe venire nel 2013 la fine del mondo in Italia se facciamo 13, non per noi la fine, ma per loro che ci hanno governato, derubato e fregato per decenni.

Come si fa a fare 13? Pura fortuna, dico io, e un pizzico di olio di gomito!

Dobbiamo partire dalla realtà e la realtà è tante (uso il singolare in quanto correttamente usarlo al di sotto di 50, al di sopra si usa il plurale).

La prima realtà è che il Movimento 5 Stelle non è di Beppe Grillo.

Lo stesso come un quadro di Picasso (avete presente il tizio che dipingeva la gente come se fosse investita da un camion ed in seguito gli fosse passato sopra un rullo compattatore ed alla fine fossero sparati sulla tela con una cannonata?) ma di chi lo ha acquisito, dunque resta un opera di Picasso, ma non è più sua di proprietà.

Il Movimento 5 Stele resta una creazione di Beppe Grillo, ma non è di sua proprietà, ma di proprietà di chi si si candida nello spirito della sua piattaforma programma, e sopratutto di proprietà di chi gli vota, cioè TU!

E ora al lavoro! Andate e convincete la gente che se vogliono di meglio tocca rimboccarsi le maniche e votare M5S.

Il metodo e semplice ed e stato messo a punto da un famoso ricercatore di sociologia di oltre 2 millenni fa: Il Ribelle Gesù.

Consiste di due passi:

il primo e scritto nel Vangelo di Giovanni capitolo tredicesimo verso 34

" Un nuovo commando do a voi, che vi amiate l'unno l'altro..."

in quanto troppo oddio ha fato troppo male penso si ora di cambiare secondo colui che caccio a pedate i mercanti dal tempio, non che non se lo siano ripreso il tempio, anzi, stano su troni d'oro in Vaticano, ma penso che amorevolmente potremmo cacciarli via presto.

Il secondo passo richiede un po di olio di gomito: Nel sedicesimo capitolo del vangelo secondo Marco, versi 15 e 16 Gesù disse "Andate in tutto il mondo, predicate il Vangelo a tutti gli uomini, chi crede e sarà battezzato, sarà salvo..."

Traduzione moderna: Andate da tutti quelli che si astengono dal votare in quanto lo considerano inutile, fategli usare il cervello, e chi crede andrà a votare il M5S.

Il battesimo all'epoca era il simbolo del aver accettato una fede, ora a noi basterebbero i loro voti in piena coscienza di quello che stanno facendo, ma se volete comprargli anche un biglietto per andare in piscina, fate pure!

Metodo: mai e poi mai andare da loro a sputargli in faccia la verità.
Pensate a loro come a dei poveri schiavi in una miniera profonda e mal illuminata, tu vai li, afferì lo schiavo per i capelli (e già questo gli fa male) lo trascini al sole per fargli vedere che esiste, e gli fai guardare il mondo a meta giornata sotto il sole splendente, cosa vedrà?

NULLA, sarà accecato, gli lacrimeranno gli occhi e gli faranno un male cane, ti ucciderà pur di liberarsi e poter tornare nella miniera, al sicuro!

Ma se tu vai li e lo porti fuori di notte, sicuramente ne vedrà parecchio di più poi gli spieghi che se ha un attimo di pazienza esiste pure il giorno, cosi i suoi occhi faranno in tempo ad abituarsi alla luce.

Vai dunque dai tuoi amici non votanti con una bottiglia di quello che bevono pure loro,

o invitagli a cena da te,
e chiedigli se per favore potrebbero darti una mano a portare in carica TIZIO che tu consoci bene (e datevi da fare a conoscere di persona i vostri candidati) perché amico tuo e vale la pena aiutarlo.

Vedrete che sarà interessato su chi è sto amico, cosa fa, dove abita, che idee ha, ma se arriva su non farà pure lui come glia altri? e via dicendo, poi puntando il dito verso quello che succede ora, piano piano ci arriveranno loro alla luce, non occorre trascinargli per i capelli.

E quando saranno convinti, date pure loro da leggere questo testo, magari si rimboccano le maniche e vanno a fare qualcosa.

Promozione personale, uno ad uno, siamo al 20% del voti, se ognuno ne convince altre 2 persone... faremmo 60%, dunque armatevi di griglia, bottiglia e pazienza, e cenate due volte o tre in compagnia che male non vi farà!

Everything you know is wrong

2012-07-18T00:36:00.000-07:00

You are a slave,

- no more chains, but credit cards,

- no more ears pierced but bank account,

- no more owner duty but tax duty,

- no more master to tell you what to do but television and propaganda system to keep you "informed" on the "right" behavior, starting with your way to think, what information you should watch and what info you are not supposed to know.

The very second you understand something is wrong with the system you passed to the enemy, although you don't know yet what is so wrong.

The very second you question the system you are the enemy of the system and must be controlled, by putting you to shame, by pointing the fingers at you, and if it is not efficient putting psychological pressure on you, than they put economic pressure on you, you might loose your job, become bad credit labeled, evicted and turn homeless from a rich dude, you dared questioning them!

The moment you realise you are not the only one to have seen things like that you are a danger to them and they might even send someone to give you a lesson.

The moment you start getting organized with others, exchange information, occupy places, write banners, preach the truth they hide in parks, you are a threat to the system.

The moment you get organised to fight back, pick up some right guys and candidate them to controll position and push them for a change, they will start bribing them and buying them into the system on high positions just to keep you low and obedient.

The moment you find folks that won't take it and head for a change, you are terrorists, you endanger the system and their private incomes and privileges.

The moment you win and send them all to jail... is awesome!

Iceland made it, so let's do that now, because we can!

Thw world is full of bullshit...

2012-06-25T00:50:00.001-07:00

A turkey was chatting with a bull.

'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.''Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:
BS might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there..

Second moral: shooting the turkey and eating it the farmer had a bunch of crap for food, thus as a rule of thumb, top food is mostly well packed crap..

I hate stupids and their leaches

2012-06-22T00:26:00.001-07:00

I hate communists, capitalists, fascists, royalists, imperialists, socialists, religions and priests and any other form of: popular repression, mind control and border control regulators that hinder us from being what we were born to be, free and intelligent beings. They want us instead to be: bound to a border, bound to a doctrine, bound to their military orders, make war to each-other, get in debt (with them, of course) pay taxes (to them, of course) and obey (to them, naturally). I don't buy in anymore!

THINK MORE!

2012-06-14T00:16:00.000-07:00

I hear every day on daily current affairs that the "Euro" is going down,and this is due to the debts registered in Germany and the Greece.

Here people are fear that will affect our economy.

This I received from Sandwidi Boukary in Africa And here is the truth for you folks, as I can see it:
Monetary shit is like cancer, when it's in a place and you think you solved it, you just find out it spreader everywhere and although the surgery succeeded fine, the patient is dead.

Money are fake value, and issued with no real economy base by private banks based on fractional reserve scheme, that is they give out money they do not have.

Euro makes no exception, and the equation is so much more complicated than just Germany and Greece, that you have no idea, this shit infested Asia, Africa, North America too, and in a certain measure also South America and the Austral-Pacific islands. Everybody is at risk, both Euro and US Dollar are cancer, so everybody hides the truth fearing bank runs and panic in the population that would lead to economy collapse like in Greece and to the bankruptcy of each state in the world.

This is info the countries hide, the banks want you to not know of, the TV and newspapers are hushed or bought to silence for. If they cannot keep this secret and the people get panic, wars are at the door, and with the weapons at hand today...

I remember what Einstein said in the fifties: "I have no idea with what weapons the third world war will be fought, but the fourth one will be fought with sticks and stones" Poor Einstein, he thought somebody will be left alive and survive to be able to fight a fourth world war, but with the weapons we have today, I strongly doubt anybody will survive.

And you are afraid some negative effect on your country will be due to Euro collapse????

Think more!

If you have enough will you can move mountiens

2012-05-06T12:08:00.001-07:00

If you have enough brain you can leave them where they are, they are not bothering anybody!

Unfortunately nowadays governments, bankers and administrators are people driven by huge personal will and ambition, but no trace of brains!

The Hacker Manifesto

+++The Mentor+++
Written January 8, 1986

Another one got caught today, it's all over the papers.
"Teenager Arrested in Computer Crime Scandal", "Hacker Arrested after Bank Tampering"...
Damn kids. They're all alike.

But did you, in your three-piece psychology and 1950's techno-brain, ever take a look behind the eyes of the hacker?

Did you ever wonder what made him tick, what forces shaped him, what may have molded him?

I am a hacker, enter my world...
Mine is a world that begins with school... I'm smarter than most of the other kids, this crap they teach us bores me...

Damn underachiever. They're all alike.

I'm in junior high or high school.
I've listened to teachers explain for the fifteenth time how to reduce a fraction.
I understand it.
"No, Ms. Smith, I didn't show my work. I did it in my head..."

Damn kid. Probably copied it. They're all alike.

I made a discovery today. I found a computer.
Wait a second, this is cool. It does what I want it to. If it makes a mistake, it's because I screwed it up.

Not because it doesn't like me... Or feels threatened by me.. Or thinks I'm a smart ass.. Or doesn't like teaching and shouldn't be here...

Damn kid. All he does is play games. They're all alike.

And then it happened... a door opened to a world... rushing through the phone line like
heroin through an addict's veins, an electronic pulse is sent out, a refuge from the day-to-day incompetencies is sought... a board is found.

"This is it... this is where I belong..." I know everyone here... even if I've never met them, never talked to them, may never hear from them again... I know you all...
Damn kid.
Tying up the phone line again. They're all alike...

You bet your ass we're all alike... we've been spoon-fed baby food at school when we hungered for steak... the bits of meat that you did let slip through were pre-chewed and tasteless.

We've been dominated by sadists, or ignored by the apathetic.

The few that had something to teach found us willing pupils, but those few are like drops of water in the desert.

This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud. We make use of a service already existing without paying for what could be dirt-cheap if it wasn't run by profiteering gluttons, and you call us criminals.

We explore... and you call us criminals.
We seek after knowledge... and you call us criminals.

We exist without skin color, without nationality, without religious bias... and you call us criminals.

You build atomic bombs, you wage wars, you murder, cheat, and lie to us and try to make us believe it's for our own good, yet we're the criminals.

Yes, I am a criminal.

My crime is that of curiosity.

My crime is that of judging people by what they say and think, not what they look like.

My crime is that of outsmarting you, something that you will never forgive me for.

I am a hacker, and this is my manifesto.

You may stop this individual, but you can't stop us all... after all, we're all alike.

Energy storing solutions for grid peak demand backup.

2012-02-18T01:37:00.001-08:00

No system alone is good enough, what you need is a combination that could be used both on short peak and on lung run wind/sun absence, something stable and reusable.

Batteries are not the answer, they have a prohibitive acquisition price, huge maintenance costs and expensive to dispose, not to mention a brief life span (4 to 7 years in the best cases)

But they are excellent to cover instantaneous peak request before other larger backup systems start producing (matter of minutes or at most half a hour)

Another backup is the hydro pumping storage, fantastic for long run, covers in lack of wind if you have enough storage, and many times you don't need to produce power to pump it up, you can dedicate some on the shore mills to direct mechanical pumping, saving some % of loss in the conversions.

Another tech is High Concentration Sun Temperature storage (with molten salts or graphite blocks, a technology I am working on with some specialized companies) to be used by night or in absence of wind to produce hot steam to turn a turbine generator, it enters in power production faster than the hydro, but a bit slower than the batteries, and depending on the size you can store energy for weeks ahead.
Another means is the submarine stream hydroelectric turbines, that are giving a steady production of high capacity for decades, energy that you can store by pumping water to use it to cover peak moments. My company Karinns Hydro Electric Turbines LTD. is looking for good places where to place turbines, from rivers to canals (small units) to submarine streams (huge units) and I presume around your places there is lots of potential.

One last thing is to hydrolyze water into gas, and store liquefied hydrogen to power Diesel generators when in need, the advantage is you use the extra power when you would have to dispose of, and can store it for decades, it will not evaporate or loose energy, but is an expensive method to start with, although some money can be recuperated in the process by selling liquefied oxygen to industry and hospitals, since you shall have this byproduct anyway.

We can provide any of these solutions on demand, but the best would be a wise combination of them, that would generate stability in the grid, jobs, a lot of useful byproducts to sell, boost economy and eliminate the need of fossil and nuke energy one step at the time.

E-mail me at: popemil@libero.it and let's examine the possibilities together.
