So, they want us to believe that everything is back to “normal” after this event . . .

Despite proof in every other respect including from oil spills of lesser magnitude from around the world that say otherwise.

But look at this from April 23, 2010

The Deepwater Horizon burned for more than 30 hours before sinking. Adrian Rose, who oversees Geneva-based Transocean’s quality, health, safety and the environment unit, said yesterday that the disaster unfolded with little or no warning.

http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-04-22/drillers-risk-deadly-blowouts-to-tap-deeper-oil-gas-riches.html

My Note – apparently there were lots of warnings.

(and this part of that Business Week article appears about two paragraphs after a statement about the great safety record of the oil industry – )

Energy XXI, along with partners that included Nexen Inc., spent $75 million to bring a June 2007 blowout at the Cote de Mer field in Louisiana under control. A surge of gas in the 22,261-foot well blew through a device known as a blowout preventer, burying the rig floor in six feet of sand, rock and seashells. No one was injured, the company said.

and this is interesting –

Some companies aren’t willing to risk the danger of a blowout. Exxon Mobil Corp., the world’s second-largest oil company, abandoned its Blackbeard well in the Gulf of Mexico in 2006 after the company’s engineers became alarmed over the pressure levels and temperatures almost seven miles beneath the seafloor, Dingmann said.

McMoRan Exploration Co. obtained control over Blackbeard in 2007 as part of its $1.1 billion acquisition of offshore assets from Newfield Exploration Co., one of Exxon’s partners in the project. McMoRan of New Orleans extended the well almost 3,000 feet deeper than where Exxon left it.

James “Jim Bob” Moffett, co-chairman of McMoRan, told investors on a January conference call that the risks of dealing with higher-pressure deposits may be worthwhile because those fields have more oil and gas packed into each square yard of rock.

Md. Team Heads To Gulf To Assess Oil Spill Impact

University of Maryland researchers are preparing to spend this week on the Gulf of Mexico assessing the impact of the BP oil spill.

The team from the school’s Horn Point Laboratory in Cambridge will begin collecting data on Tuesday from west of the Mississippi. They will then travel along the Louisiana coast into Texas.

(etc.)

My Note –

That would be funny if it weren’t so sad – because they will use those bits of data to later prove the oil impacts were negligible despite the fact that their team has been studying the “dead zones” in the area for five years. And, I only say that because they would be dragging those sensors along in the waters where the spill actually occurred and where impacts have already been noted – not west of Louisiana and on into Texas waters, if they intended to get a true and accurate reading of it. I don’t know – maybe they are simply adding to figures they’ve already made of the rest of it, but somebody ought to check on some of these things. And, check who is funding a lot of it too.

The existing “dead zone” that has floated around out there for years in the Gulf of Mexico was expected to be more extensive this year before the oil spill. You cannot tell me that between the known dead zone and the addition of millions upon millions of gallons of raw petroleum crude oil and millions of gallons of a known toxic dispersant, thousands of birds and animals and marine wildlife killed – that the Gulf of Mexico is all okay now. Do they really believe that the entire population of the United States and the rest of the world has a third grade level of education – or do they just think none of us give a damn?

I don’t get it. Wouldn’t it just be easier to fix it rather than to spend this much time and money to lie about it?

Gov. Nixon appoints acting director at Department of Natural Resources
Monday, August 30, 2010 | 1:01 p.m. CDT; updated 1:18 p.m. CDT, Monday, August 30, 2010
BY Tony Flesor

COLUMBIA — Gov. Jay Nixon appointed Kip Stetzler acting Director of the State Department of Natural Resources on Monday. Stetzler is replacing Mark Templeton.

Stetzler has been a part of Nixon’s administration since January 2009. Since that time, Stetzler has been the acting director of the Missouri Department of Insurance, the director of the Taxation Division of the Missouri Department of Revenue, the director of reporting of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and the director of the Western Regional Office of the Governor. Stetzler also was an assistant attorney general from 2000 to 2008.

A news release sent out on Monday said that Templeton, Stetzler’s predecessor, is becoming the executive idrector of the Office of the Independent Trustees of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Trust. He will be responsible for ensuring that funds are available to address the claims of those affected by BP’s Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Templeton leaves Missouri’s Department of Natural Resources
By JASON NOBLE
The Kansas City Star

JEFFERSON CITY | Mark Templeton, the embattled and then marginalized head of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources, is leaving state government for a role in the gulf oil spill response effort.

Templeton joined the department in 2009 when Gov. Jay Nixon took office. But he was suspended later that year in the fallout from pollution problems at the Lake of the Ozarks.

Since then, he has continued as director but served in a much-diminished capacity. He was, for example, nowhere to be found at a two-day symposium on lake water held earlier this month.

“I appreciate Mark’s service and leadership of numerous projects critical to the protection of Missouri’s natural resources – from our state parks and historic sites, to the safety of our wastewater treatment systems,” Nixon said in a statement. “Mark’s effective use of Recovery Act funds made it possible for thousands of Missouri families, farms and businesses to reduce their heating and cooling bills and conserve energy.”

Replacing Templeton on an interim basis will be Kip Stetzler, a longtime Nixon aide and johnny-on-the-spot who has previously held short-term leadership positions in the Department of Insurance, Department of Revenue and over the state’s management of stimulus funds.

DNR will conduct a nationwide search for a permanent director.

Templeton, meanwhile, will become the executive director of the Office of the Independent Trustees of the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill Trust.

In that role, according to the governor’s press release, “he will be responsible for ensuring that funds are available to address the claims of those affected by BP’s Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico.”

Meet The Department Director
Mark N.  Templeton

http://www.dnr.mo.gov/dir_bio.htm

Mark N. Templeton is the Director of the Missouri Department of Natural Resources.  With a background that incorporates environmental stewardship, alternative energy, and sound business practices that transcend the public, private, and non-profit sectors, he brings a unique skill-set and perspective to the Department.  From 2001 to 2005, Templeton developed environmental and sustainability strategies for clients while with McKinsey & Company, a global management consultancy headquartered in New York.  While there, he worked with clients to explore new “green” markets for products and services and to develop next-generation jobs in the environmental and energy sectors.  While at McKinsey, Templeton advised major organizations including the United Nations Development Programme’s Commission on the Private Sector and Development.  In 2005, Templeton left McKinsey to become associate dean and chief operating officer of Yale Law School, his alma mater.

Prior to joining McKinsey, Templeton was special assistant and senior advisor to the U.S. Assistant Secretary of State for Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor and an advisor to the U.S. Delegation to U.N. Commission on Human Rights.  He worked as office director of the Human Rights Documentation Center in Bangkok, Thailand from 1999 to 2000 and as a research associate with the South Asia Human Rights Documentation Center in New Delhi, India in 1997.

Hailing from Olivette, Missouri, Templeton earned his bachelor’s degree, magna cum laude, from Harvard College in 1994 and his juris doctorate from Yale Law School in 1999.  He graduated from Horton Watkins High School in Ladue.

My Note -=
Wasn’t Missouri the state where the Mark Twain National Park is being made into a cesspool along with its river being polluted with arsenic and other tailings because the DNR leased it out to be mined and tested for increased mining of its resources?

My Note -

Apparently this man below who wrote this never read the COREXIT 9500 safety hazards sheet that comes from the company for the product. I have posted it elsewhere on this site and it clearly states that there are hazards associated with it as do many other studies, even the EPA didn’t compare it favorably – they compared it with some other range of toxic choices – all of which (including raw crude petroleum) are also known to be toxic. Look how this operative of the oil and gas companies left over from the Nixon administration writes about it.

Dispensing Misconceptions on BP’s Oil Dispersant
Opinion by John Rafuse
(2 Hours Ago) in Politics

With oil from BP’s Deepwater Horizon accident all but gone from the Gulf of Mexico’s waters, there has been much ado about nothing concerning the dispersing agents that were used to successfully dissipate the spill. And while environmental activists continue to assault these agents – known in the energy industry as ‘dispersants’ – on the grounds that they are bad for the environment, workers in the Gulf continue to feel the pain of the tragedy these agents helped end.

So, what exactly are dispersants, and how did they help hasten a clean-up effort marred in bureaucratic red tape and political quarreling? When applied during a response to an oil spill, dispersants are chemical compounds that are sprayed from the air and settle onto the effected body of water, where they break apart oil slicks into tiny drops. This then allows water-borne bacteria to digest the oil; this feeding allows the bacteria to multiple rapidly and, thus, consume larger amounts of oil at a quickening pace.

The particular dispersant used by responders in the Gulf of Mexico is a compound manufactured by Illinois-based Nalco Holding Company called COREXIT 9500. This dispersing agent is made up of organic acid salts and a glycol solvent. Despite what environmental activists claim, the dispersant used in the Gulf is safe, and clearly prevented more oil from reaching the vulnerable shorelines of Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama. Had the government heeded activist calls to limit or downright ban the use of the large amount of dispersant deployed to conquer the hundreds of millions of gallons of oil from BP’s Macondo well, the Gulf’s workers and consumers would be if even worse off today.

If environmental safety was a real concern for activists, they would have been wise to consult scientific data and recently-conducted research before advocating the limitation of dispersants in the Gulf. For starters, the safety data report for COREXIT 9500 clearly states that none of the substances in the compound have been found by the International Agency for Research on Cancer to be carcinogenic. What is more, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has concluded peer-reviewed, independent study of the toxicity of dispersants recently used in the Gulf. In a press release this month, EPA stated, “These results confirm that the dispersant used in response to the oil spill in the gulf, Corexit 9500A, when mixed with oil, is generally no more or less toxic than mixtures with the other available alternatives.” Additionally, in a report to EPA, BP stated that the COREXIT deployed was the least toxic dispersant currently available.

Future oil spill responses may also get a big lift from a new species of oil-consuming microbes. As NPR reported last week, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s Terry Hazen, along with a team of researchers, has discovered a new species of oil-eating bacteria living half a mile down below the Gulf’s surface. These cold-water loving bacteria are responsible for the recent dissipation of the massive oil plume that stretched for miles underwater until earlier this week. The abundance of microorganisms in our waters, coupled with the safe use of dispersants, will make meeting the challenges of future accidents much more manageable.

With scientists and researchers in agreement that the efficacy of dispersants is substantial, policymakers now need to turn their attention to helping workers recover from the Gulf tragedy. Government’s response to date has been enacting a moratorium on offshore drilling and consideration of new taxes on America’s oil and gas producers. Neither of these policies is helpful, and neither is based on rigorous inquiry.

Hopefully, as policymakers continually weigh in on the future of America’s offshore energy industry, they will think less like politicians and more like scientists. Just like dispersants were a sure fire way to dissipate massive amounts of spilled oil, lifting the deepwater moratorium and rejecting new energy taxes will ensure that workers get back to their jobs and our economy gets back on track.

Anti-”Price Gouging” Laws Hurt Consumers

DATE: August 27, 2007

BACKGROUND: In May, the U.S. House of Representatives passed the “Federal Price Gouging Prevention Act” (H.R. 1252), which would make it illegal for gasoline providers to sell their product at “unconscionably excessive” prices when the President declares an “energy emergency.”  According to the Act’s primary sponsor, Rep. Bart Stupak (D-MI), the bill is designed to protect Americans from being “forced to pay too much at the gas pump.”1

On June 21, the Senate passed a similar provision designed to outlaw gasoline “price gouging” in a comprehensive energy bill, H.R. 6.  Under this bill, an “energy emergency” could be declared by the President for any region of the country where gasoline is either in short supply or projected to be in short supply.

Both the House and Senate bills direct the Federal Trade Commission to enforce the proposed price-gouging edict.  Gasoline wholesalers and retailers who violate the new law would be subject to both civil and criminal penalties that include multimillion-dollar fines and imprisonment.
While this recent proposal from Congress may appeal emotionally to some when gas prices spike, history shows it could actually cause pain at the pump for consumers.

TEN SECOND RESPONSE: Price gouging proposals are de facto price controls that would lead to 1970s-style gasoline shortages and long gas lines.

THIRTY SECOND RESPONSE: Rising gasoline prices during times of short supply are the result of market principles at work.  Allowing gasoline prices to adjust naturally to supply conditions ensures that gas is distributed to consumers who need it most.  Government-imposed price controls only exacerbate and prolong supply shortages.

DISCUSSION: According to the FTC, “price gouging” laws are not only unnecessary, they are counterproductive.  After Hurricanes Katrina and Rita caused gasoline supply shortages in 2005 (shortages that could have triggered an “energy emergency” declaration under the current proposals in Congress), the FTC conducted a study that “found no instances of illegal market manipulation that led to higher prices.”2

In fact, higher gasoline prices in the aftermath of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita helped solve supply shortages by sending market signals that resulted in “shipment of substantial additional supplies of gasoline to the United States.”3

Should price gouging legislation force gas prices lower than what the market would naturally dictate during a supply shortage, the FTC warns, “wholesalers and retailers will run out of gasoline and consumers will be worse off.”4

Congress appears poised to direct the FTC to enforce a law that the agency has determined to be unwise.  As the FTC states:

[F]ederal gasoline price gouging legislation, in addition to being difficult to enforce, could cause more problems for consumers than it solves, and that competitive market forces should be allowed to determine the price of gasoline drivers pay at the pump.5

Specifically, the FTC analyzed existing state laws that define price gouging as “unconscionably excessive” and found that such vague terminology “may require subjective interpretation that increases the difficulty of both compliance and enforcement.”6

“Given the uncertainty about what constitutes an unconscionable, excessive, or exorbitant price,” the FTC reports, “statutes based on any of these terms are likely to be difficult to enforce.”7

(etc.)

My Note -

But here, said by the man who acutely and probably helped to cause the “energy crisis” of the 1970′s – (pulled from the same article) -

Jack Rafuse, who served as an energy advisor to President Richard Nixon, explains:

For those with memories shorter than mine, President Richard M. Nixon imposed wage and price controls on Aug. 15, 1971.  Oil and gas were two of many commodities affected…

Nixon kept the wage-and-price controls on oil, gasoline and petroleum products in place, as did Presidents Gerald Ford and Jimmy Carter.  The results were disastrous.  Oil exploration and domestic oil production slowed sharply…

Thanks to this misguided policy, gasoline lines snaked along highways for hours during oil crises in the mid- and late-1970s.  Stations ran out of gasoline and laws told consumers which days they could purchase gas.  A windfall-profits tax compounded all the negative effects, and the shortages lasted until President Ronald Reagan repealed controls in 1981.  The price of a gallon of gas at the pump fell by a third over five years.

With this kind of record, you might wonder what Congress is doing considering price controls and windfall profits taxes on gasoline…

After Katrina, while the market encouraged everyone to cut back, there were no 1970s-style gas lines or closed stations elsewhere in the nation.

Other producers – domestic and international – were motivated by higher prices to take up the slack.  In fact, oil exploration drilling is at a 20-year high and expenditures are at an all-time high.  That’s how markets work.8

Doesn’t that mean we have him to thank for the same crap he is blaming on somebody else? While he’s been serving the interests of the oil and gas companies this whole time – and with an inside ear directly to our leaders, decision-makers and government officials all of this time?

What kind of nightmare is that – no wonder we don’t have some alternative energy as our primary energy and fuel choice at this point.

And this which I found in the first place from a post on my facebook page -

Ohio State’s Buckeye Bullet Electric Car
Breaks World Speed Record 307MPH

The students from Ohio State University’s Center for Auto Research witnessed their electric-powered racer make history. The Buckeye Bullet 2.5 averaged 307.7 miles per hour in back-to-back runs on Utah’s Bonneville Salt Flats, obliterating the previous record of 245.5 m.p.h., set in 1999.

Roger Schroer, the Bullet 2.5’s driver, celebrates after the 307 mile per hour run.The team is awaiting certification of its accomplishment by the Federation Internationale de l’Automobile, the governing body that ratifies world-record runs. A hydrogen fuel cell-powered version of the 2.5, the Buckeye Bullet 2, owns the record for its propulsion class, attaining an average speed of 302.9 m.p.h. in 2009.

To a casual E.V. enthusiast, the record might have seemed a foregone conclusion, as the 1999 mark was established by a racer running nickel-metal hydride batteries, which pack lower energy density than the lithium-ion unit powering the Buckeye Bullet 2.5. However, David Cooke, Ohio State’s team manager, noted in a telephone interview that the original Bullet also ran nickel-metal hydride batteries in 2004 when its car hit 314.9 m.p.h. (That run was rejected by the F.I.A.)

The record might have been broken years earlier, but electric cars are an obscure category in auto racing and few are interested in developing a battery-powered streamliner when piston-driven cars go much faster, said Dave Petrali, chief steward for U.S. Auto Club and a timer for the international motorsports body, the Federation Internationale de L’Automobile.

“It takes a lot of power and a huge battery pack” for an electric car to attain high speeds, he said.

It could take a few weeks for the FIA to ratify the Buckeye Bullet’s record. But there was no doubt it broke the previous record, set in 1999 by Pat Rummerfield, who conceded defeat and congratulated the Buckeye team, Petrali said.

A professional driver drove the Buckeye Bullet on runs Monday and yesterday. Track sensors measured the vehicle’s speed. The fastest run at 307.905 mph yesterday was an average of back-and-forth runs.

My Note -

What is wrong with those folks in Washington – when they’ve known all along that these hybrid battery powered electric cars could be powered fast enough and with enough range and acceleration to replace gasoline and diesel fuels entirely? – They’ve known it since the Mercury space program, at the very least where they were studying and researching and designing these systems for application in the first place. (among other things that had gone on before that for submarines to use . . . )

Who are these people? Are they all listening to the Jack Rafuse kinds of people left over from the Nixon and Barry Goldwater groups ad infinitum – do they ever update what they know about anything past that point?

*****

Yesterday, Senator Mary Landrieu said that the Federal Government has taken $165 Billion dollars to the US Treasury for the oil and gas down in the Gulf of Mexico that has been pumped out there over the years. That was on an ABC news show about the five year anniversary of hurricane Katrina – and I’ve been thinking that number is only a percentage of all the revenues made from our national assets that have been taken by the oil and gas companies from Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico. I wonder how much money they have pumped out of our natural resources and made from it.

I was looking up the making of the Missouri Mark Twain National Park and River into a cesspool of destruction from mineral mining allowed in the park by their Department of Natural Resources under Mark Templeton and found this – which is very interesting from the Sierra Club -

Now, the items on that list show conspiracy and collusion – I don’t care who you are.

My Note -

I wish they had gone all the way back through the Nixon administration who did even more damage, the Reagan administration who did the most damage, the Bush Senior administration who did egregious damage and put all of it into one massive explanation of what we are living with today. It is obscene – and it never had to be done that way at all. It has taken our nation from a top leader in the world to the last runner-up instead.

EPA seeks to reclassify mercury as “nontoxic”

DECEMBER 18, 2002
White House budget office values elderly lives 63 percent less in environmental cost-benefit analysis

(all brought to us by the same people who literally worship a lifeless brass bull in the middle of a New York street – didn’t they ever notice anything wrong with doing this stuff?) see all of the above and on top of that, I keep remembering how many of our best, finest, healthy men and women were brought home in pieces, damaged beyond repair by those same decision-makers in pursuit of oil security in the Mid-East and elsewhere).

And, the genocide in New Orleans after hurricane Katrina.

And, the oil spill destruction of multiple places including the Gulf of Mexico recently whose effects will be long-lasting, I don’t care what they say about it or how they present opinions in direct opposition to the known facts about it…

You know what is pathologically psychotic? The Republican Party and its vast minions doing its bidding that serve the interests of industries intent on destroying the quality of life for the entire human race in order to receive short term profits.

That is truly psychotic.

Did they get up in the morning and say, hey let’s pour poisons into the drinking water supply and tell people there’s nothing wrong with doing it that way . … .

No probably not. But, they did the actions which effectively did exactly those things, including telling us it wasn’t really poison despite all scientific evidence of fact that said it is poison.

Do they not understand that the air they are breathing also contains these things – and the water they are drinking is bathed in the same poisons somewhere down the line too?

http://www.epa.gov/oms/regs/toxics/420b06002.pdf

There are chemicals on here whose names are as long as I am tall – and 90% or more of them are toxic – I don’t care who you are – they are still toxic. And, our government is worried about whether we smoke cigarettes and eat sugar? Are they kidding?

and here is part of the information about the Mark Twain National Forest mining operations turning it into a horrific sewage of toxic waste and heavy metals from their operations – along with the fact that they are tearing up the place with roads, logging to make roads and mining operations.

Assessment of Elemental Concentrations in Streams of the New Lead Belt in Southeastern Missouri, 2002-05

William G. Brumbaugh, Thomas W. May, John M. Besser, Ann L. Allert, and Christopher J. Schmitt

SIR 2007-5057

Concerns about possible effects of lead-mining activities on the water quality of federally protected streams located in southeastern Missouri prompted a suite of multidisciplinary studies to be conducted by the U.S. Geological Survey. As part of this investigation, a series of biological studies were initiated in 2001 for streams in the current mining region and the prospecting area. In this report, results are examined for trace elements and other selected chemical measurements in sediment, surface water, and sediment interstitial (pore) water sampled between 2002 and 2005 in association with these biological studies.

Compared to reference sites, fine sediments collected downstream from mining areas were enriched in metals by factors as large as 75 for cadmium, 62 for cobalt, 171 for nickel, 95 for lead, and 150 for zinc. Greatest metal concentrations in sediments collected in 2002 were from sites downstream from mines on Strother Creek, Courtois Creek, and the West Fork Black River. Sediments from sites on Bee Fork, Logan Creek, and Sweetwater Creek also were noticeably enriched in lead. Sediments in Clearwater Lake, at least 75 kilometers downstream from mining activity, had metal concentrations that were 1.5 to 2.1 times greater than sediments in an area of the lake with no upstream mining activity. Longitudinal sampling along three streams in 2004 indicated that sediment metal concentrations decreased considerably a few kilometers downstream from mining activities; however, in Strother Creek some metals were still enriched by a factor of five or more as far as 13 kilometers downstream from the Buick tailings impoundment. Compared with 2002 samples, metals concentrations were dramatically lower in sediments collected in 2004 at an upper West Fork Black River site, presumably because beneficiation operations at the West Fork mill ceased in 2000.

Concentrations of metals and sulfate in sediment interstitial (pore) waters generally tracked closely with metal concentrations in sediments. Metals, including cobalt, nickel, lead, and zinc, were elevated substantially in laboratory-produced pore waters of fine sediments collected near mining operations in 2002 and 2004. Passive diffusion samplers (peepers) buried 4 to 6 centimeters deep in riffle-run stream sediments during 2003 and 2005 had much lower pore-water metal concentrations than the laboratory-produced pore waters of fine sediments collected in 2002 and 2004, but each sampling method produced similar patterns among sites. The combined mean concentration of lead in peeper samples from selected sites located downstream from mining activities for six streams was about 10-fold greater than the mean of the reference sites. In most instances, metals concentrations in surface water and peeper water were not greatly different, indicating considerable exchange between the surface water and pore water at the depths and locations where peepers were situated.

Passive sampling probes used to assess metal lability in pore waters of selected samples during 2004 sediment toxicity tests indicated that most of the filterable lead in the laboratory-prepared pore water was relatively non-labile, presumably because lead was complexed by organic matter, or was present as colloidal species. In contrast, large percentages of cobalt and nickel in pore water appeared to be labile. Passive integrative samplers deployed in surface water for up to 3 weeks at three sites in July 2005 confirmed the presence of elevated concentrations of labile metals downstream from mining operations on Strother Creek and, to a lesser extent, Bee Fork. These samplers also indicated a considerable increase in metal loadings occurred for a few days at the Strother Creek site, which coincided with moderate increases in stream discharges in the area.

My Note -

Apparently we have Mark Templeton of the Missouri DNR and others to thank for that – now he will be among those “stewards” of the BP oil trust money that is supposed to go to people affected by the oil spill. Yeah, right – stewards of trust . . .

Yeah, go get yourself some health foods at the health food store, eat only organically grown stuff, take vitamins, drink bottled water from France or somewhere and go work out at the gym – that’ll make a difference alright, maybe if you don’t breathe any of the air in the United States into your lungs during that time, it might.

EPA420-B-06-002 9 February 2006

(times how many cars and the rest of the 1162 item list every hour, especially during rush hours – and then the wind does what with it – and then the rain takes it down into where which drains into the drinking water as well . . . . )

If anything – in 2010 there are more emissions, more toxic additives and more of them in higher concentrations leftover from the changes in EPA standards made during the Nixon, Reagan, Bush and Bush, Jr. years.

and we could’ve just been doing it some other way the whole time – for at least the last thirty-five years it has been known to be a problem of great magnitude. The air was nothing but filth in Los Angeles and other big cities even in the 50′s and 60′s – this is not a surprise health problem. And go take a look at that list and imagine it amplified by every single car, truck, motorcycle, lawn mower, weed whacker, farm combine, tractor, train, ship, boat, airboat, airliner, industrial plant and assorted power plants every minute of every hour of everyday everywhere across the US and in just about every other country now as well – and across every ocean, lake, stream, river and creek. Don’t tell me there’s not a problem. Even the rich people are breathing this filth – and the police and the politicians and the elected officials and the regular people and the business leaders and the big business people and their families along with everyone else who will live on this planet in the next thirty or fifty or a hundred years.

oh yeah – add to that the NASCAR races and similar car, truck and motorcycle races, high speed boat races, military vehicles, military aircraft, helicopters, tanks and humvees, for our military and operations of every nation around the world. And, every single diesel truck running down the road every minute of everyday, all the school buses  that are cabins filled with the stuff, all the huge cargo container ships and petroleum tankers on the land and on the sea, all the tugs and barges. But, what if they were all powered by clean energy of any kind – what if that energy were cheaper than gasoline and diesel fuel with better performance and better “thrust”?

Imagine all the business and all the varieties of jobs that would be made available just by transforming our fleets of every kind of vehicle into clean energy solutions . . .

Wow. That would be nifty. There wouldn’t be a person unemployed in the nation, maybe in the entire world . . .

Or maybe it is better to keep breathing this stuff –

Bits about Saudi Arabia, the Tea Party and a thought about hurricane Katrina 5 years ago

Interesting -

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/29/opinion/29rich.html?_r=1&src=me&ref=general

That’s what I thought – the Tea Party had been hijacked by the conservatives and big business bunch. It has looked that way for awhile.

And, watching the coverage about hurricane Katrina – reminded me of a question I’ve always had about it which was, why did they wait so long to call for evacuations in New Orleans especially?

Watching the five-year anniversary coverage – I think maybe the answer is that the businesses involved with tourists didn’t want to stop the party where they were receiving the benefits of people continuing to spend money. Yep, probably.

I did walk to the store, and did some more vacuuming. Turned out my computer to find the proposal info sent to Staples, which I finally found and started work on some articles.

http://www.nytimes.com/2010/08/29/opinion/29rich.html?_r=1&src=me&ref=general

The Koch brothers must be laughing all the way to the bank knowing that working Americans are aiding and abetting their selfish interests. And surely Murdoch is snickering at those protesting the “ground zero mosque.” Last week on “Fox and Friends,” the Bush administration flacks Dan Senor and Dana Perino attacked a supposedly terrorism-tainted Saudi prince whose foundation might contribute to the Islamic center. But as “The Daily Show” keeps pointing out, these Fox bloviators never acknowledge that the evil prince they’re bashing, Walid bin Talal, is not only the biggest non-Murdoch shareholder in Fox News’s parent company (he owns 7 percent of News Corporation) and the recipient of Murdoch mammoth investments in Saudi Arabia but also the subject of lionization elsewhere on Fox.

Doctors remove nails allegedly hammered into maid by employers

By Iqbal Athas, For CNN
August 27, 2010 9:43 a.m. EDT
Colombo, Sri Lanka (CNN) — Doctors at a Sri Lankan hospital operated for three hours Friday to remove 18 nails and metal particles allegedly hammered into the arms, legs and forehead of a maid by her Saudi employer. ( .. .)

Ariyawathie left Sri Lanka on March 25 to work as a housemaid in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia after the bureau registered her as a person obtaining a job from an officially recognized job agency.

She was held down by her employer’s wife while the employer hammered the heated nails, Ruhunuge told CNN. She apparently had complained to the couple that she was being overworked, Ruhunuge said.

The nails were hammered into her arms and legs while one was on her forehead, he said.

“Most of the wounds are superficial but five to 10 are somewhat deep,” said Dr. Prabath Gajadeera of the Base Hospital. “Luckily, none of the organs is affected. Only nerves and blood vessels are affected.”

Ariyawathie, 49, is a mother of two children who were opposed to their mother’s journey to Saudi Arabia for work.

I knew this story had something to do with the first one, but I couldn’t put my finger on it – then I noticed the same Saudi handling of things in both.

This is interesting, too.

WASHINGTON—The Obama administration plans to include attack helicopters in an expanded arms package for Saudi Arabia, swelling the size of the proposed deal to as much as $60 billion over 10 years, according to officials familiar with the matter.

The deal would be the largest overseas U.S. arms sale, the officials said, though the size could change as the package is finalized, one official said.

New details about the deal include plans to sell the Saudis about 70 UH-60 Black Hawk helicopters and up to 60 Longbow Apache attack helicopters together worth about $30 billion. That comes on top of a previously disclosed $30 billion tranche that includes 84 Boeing Co. F-15s and upgrades to older fighters in the Saudis fleet.

Boeing makes the Apache. The Black Hawk is manufactured by United Technologies unit Sikorsky.

Negotiated largely in secret because of the sensitivities in the region, the sale is part of a strategy spearheaded by the George W. Bush administration and expanded by President Barack Obama to beef up the militaries of Arab allies as a counterweight to Iran

Flush with oil cash, Saudi Arabia has become a top weapons buyer. It spent $36.7 billion worldwide on arms between 2001 and 2008, according to a Congressional Research Service report.

TEHRAN — Iran plans to pump more crude from three oilfields shared with Oman, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia in the Persian Gulf, the managing director of Iran’s Offshore Oil Company (IOOC) said here on Sunday.

The Mehr News Agency quoted Mahmoud Zirakchianzadeh as saying that some 30,000 barrels per day would be added to the country’s production capacity.”

He also said that some 400 million euros have been allocated for the development of Esfandiar oil field out of the energy fund, which Iran shares with Saudi Arabia.

“Oil output of Salman and Forouzan oilfields will increase by 10,000 barrels per day,” Zirakchianzadeh said.

Iran shares its Salman and Forouzan oilfields with the UAE and Oman, respectively.

Iran starts mass production of long-range artillery shells
Tehran Times Political Desk

TEHRAN – Iran has inaugurated the production line for the country’s longest-range artillery ammunition.

During the inauguration ceremony on Sunday, Defense Minister Ahmad Vahidi said the advanced 130mm artillery shells with a range of 42 kilometers can be used to hit enemy targets in the distance.

These artillery shells act like ballistic missiles and they use a solid propellant, Vahidi stated.

Saudi crown prince on leave abroad

Sat Aug 28, 2010 6:43pm GMT

RIYADH Aug 28 (Reuters) – Saudi Arabia’s Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdul-Aziz, who was for much of last year out of the country for medical treatment and rest, went abroad on Saturday for vacation, state news agency SPA said.

Sultan, who is also defence minister and deputy prime minister of the top oil exporter and major U.S. ally, left Saudi Arabia for a “private holiday” for an unspecified time, SPA said in a brief report, citing a royal court statement. It did not say where he was going.

In March 2009, King Abdullah appointed Interior Minister Prince Nayef bin Abdul-Aziz as second deputy prime minister, a promotion that places him well to become king one day.

Nayef has been interior minister for more than 30 years and is one of the conservative forces in the royal family which has given the religious establishment vast influence in a country applying a strict version of Sunni Islam. (Reporting by Ulf Laessing; Editing by Jon Hemming)

And this one is interesting – but its from last year -

Wednesday, 15 Apr 2009

The President of Russia’s Lukoil announced that the company has discovered to oil fields in Saudi Arabia.

He said in a press conference that the two fields have C1 + C2 reserves of 70 million tonnes of condensate and 300 billion cubic meters of gas. The company will need another two and a half years to carry out a full appraisal. After that, it will start developing the project.

In 2004, Lukoil and the Saudi Oil Ministry signed a contract for the exploration and development of gas fields and gas concentrate in an area known as Bloc A. The term of the agreement is 40 years.

From recently -

Wednesday, 18 Aug 2010

Reuters quoted the head of the trading arm of Lukoil as saying that his company Litasco was not selling gasoline to Iran, after traders said sales had resumed despite US and European Union sanctions.

Mr Sergey Chaplygin CEO of Litasco said that “We are not supplying to Iran. We have no existing contracts and we don’t have any JV with Chinese or any other companies to supply gasoline. We already had a statement in April that we are not supplying any refined products and nothing has changed since then.”

Industry sources said that Lukoil’s trading arm Litasco together with China’s state run firm Zhuhai Zhenrong had discharged 250,000 barrel gasoline cargo at the Iranian port of Bandar Abbas recently.

Traders said that the Geneva based Litasco was expected to ship a second cargo to the Iranian port later this week.

Pentagon considers pre-emptive strikes as part of cyber-defense strategy
August 30, 2010 12:00 AM

The military’s dismantling in 2008 of a Saudi website that U.S. officials suspected of facilitating suicide bombers in Iraq also inadvertently disrupted more than 300 servers in Saudi Arabia, Germany and Texas, for example, and the Obama administration put a moratorium on such network warfare actions until clear rules could be established.

My Note – I like this part especially -

Some officials and experts say they doubt the technology exists to use such capabilities effectively, and they question the need for such measures when, they say, traditional defensive steps such as updating firewalls, protecting computer ports and changing passwords are not always taken.

http://www.southcoasttoday.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100830/NEWS02/8300313/-1/NEWSMAP

Very interesting article, though.

I don’t even want to know how it is that 300 servers in Saudi Arabia, Germany and Texas could’ve been connected in such a way as to be affected across all of them.

- cricketdiane

Oh yeah, and this part from that article was very interesting as well -

The command — made up of 1,000 elite military hackers and spies under one four-star general — is the linchpin of the Pentagon’s new strategy and is slated to become fully operational Oct. 1. Military officials have declared that cyberspace is the fifth domain — along with land, air, sea and space — and is crucial to battlefield success.

“We have to have offensive capabilities, to, in real time, shut down somebody trying to attack us,” Gen. Keith Alexander, the head of the Pentagon’s new Cyber Command, told an audience in Tampa this month.

the thing with no title – while searching for idea to use from my computer

Finished the last page of the America the Beautiful Show website – page 28 – but also changed the products listing too. I think they may need to be refined a little more yet.

http://www.americathebeautifulshow.com/index_files/americathebeautifulshow28.htm

This is the email I was sending –

Just want your corporate team to see this -
www.americathebeautifulshow.com
and
www.americathebeautifulshows.net

The point is to help build the America the Beautiful Shows all over the country in the communities to start rebuilding the economies from the ground up.

The website above contains all the tools for people to use for building these shows themselves and it needs sponsors, advertisers and support to stay online. Once the shows are being done by communities – they will need help to make them successful.
Please take a look. Let me know if I can answer any questions or help your team understand it better.

Diane C Phillips,
cricketdiane

My Note -

I was going to try and find some old notes about the America the Beautiful Show from the last couple years of working on it which are in my files – maybe it would be worth doing a video blog of that process. Sounds boring.

And, where is the proposal I made for Staples which was rejected by their sponsorwise group that looked at it? Somewhere – in the computer. I’m going to go find that too. Maybe I’ll post it here when I find it.

- cricketdiane

***

Aside from finishing the last page of the website and posting some videos on the YouTube page, updating the Facebook pages for the site (and my personal one) and sticking a Twitter on occasionally, I thought maybe a look at some of these “10 things” kind of articles might be worthwhile to help me understand the best way to incorporate that style with something about the America the Beautiful Show. I might just write that here.

Found this from one of my other emails sent out –

Ideas are the foundation of our country and ideas are the positive strength in our country’s economy.

Ideas are the fuel that powers our economic growth.

This is my big idea. (One of them.)

Please help me with it.

http://www.americathebeautifulshow.com/

Here is how I’ve changed the products offered on the site –

http://www.americathebeautifulshow.com/index_files/americathebeautifulshow15.htm

Not sure its right quite yet – needs to be developed a bit more.

- cricketdiane

***

Found this too – maybe it would make a good article expanded some –

(from an earlier blog post I made)

Are we not inventors?

Have a little enthusiasm – aren’t we the nation of inventors? or not . . .

Aren’t we the nation of can-do mentality and haven’t we brought great things to the world over the course of history?

***

And this is from the last page of the America the Beautiful Show website just added yesterday -

Is it legitimate? Who are the people behind the America the Beautiful Show?

If I were homeless, I wouldn’t ask someone with $500,000 in the bank for advice because their ideas of what can be done and what I would have available are far removed from one another. So, what is legitimacy in this case? Is it whether the people, including me that are creating the America the Beautiful Show project and this website have any legitimate claims to know anything about this subject matter or to do what we’re doing? I say we do.

We don’t know how to start a business with a $3 million dollar loan, but we do know how to start one from scratch with nothing. If you want to know how to start one with a $3 – $5 million dollar loan, call the small business administration. If you want to know how to start a business with what you have, with the talents wholly unique to you, using your own limitations and specific difficulties and nothing in the bank – then ask me or ask us, because that we know how to do. And, our core team knows how to be resourceful from zero and from minus zero.

Is it legitimate? Hmmmm……… let’s see. Have I asked you for money? Have I asked you to sign up for anything? Have I required any information from you? Have any of our team members taken anything from you without giving something in return? No. In fact, what we’ve done so far, is to open our business with you. We have also filled these pages with resources and new ways to think about business.

My Note -

Maybe I could take some elements from that to create some newsy articles worth reading. Hmmmm……………

I had sent this on an email with this note – on August 3 or 4, 2010

We have four followers so far on twitter and 132 views on the wordpress blog just since midnite. Very nifty – there were 470 today and it is Sunday which is always slower for obvious reasons and I hardly posted for two days.

We’ve had 3 uploads of the video on YouTube and as I said on the phone, there were 12 views before I could even see the whole seven minutes of it. So, that is good. We need to make a CNN I-report for it – I mean for the America the Beautiful Shows and I also sent a note over to the Michael Moore group about it – maybe they will go by and see the site.

***

My Note – (today)

As of last night, we had 165 uploads on the YouTube site with 407 channel views. There are about 12 followers on Twitter but aside from links – none of the twitters are actually showing up even though I sent a note about it to the Twitter help site about it. There have been over 350,000 views of this blog since creating it and it generally has slightly over 500 views per day everyday except on Saturdays and Sundays. There are two subscribers to the YouTube site and I don’t know what the traffic on the main websites look like yet.

Also, there has been an increase on Facebook – but the two Facebook pages for the America the Beautiful Show aren’t very busy yet – so I need to work on that a bit and find some friends for them. There have been over 300 emails sent out to business and organizations’ around the US and one comment by an angel investor (whether legitimate or not) on the blog so far.

That’s about where it is now and the website has been online for a little over three weeks right now today. Although I’ve been working on it for two years, the online presence was just constructed as of August 1, 2010 – not in its complete form but the domains and hosting services were started on that date.

So, not bad.

Not good – but not bad either. It isn’t exactly a viral video kind of thing after all, but it could be better as far as letting people know about it and finding advertisers for it.

- cricketdiane, 08-29-10

***

That reminds me – sending out the emails may be positive and maybe not – there could be an interpretation of those emails sent to let organizations and businesses know about it – that it was nothing but spam in their inbox. I hate that. And, I’m not sure what to do about it. I don’t want to spam places. I thought they would like to know about it and needed to know about it but maybe it isn’t any different than sending an email about breast or penis enlargements, buying insurance or get rich quick schemes. It didn’t seem that way to me – but I don’t think these organizations are manned to look at the emails necessarily, and anyway – it isn’t right apparently.

I guess the National Organization for Women and the Coalitions for the Homeless didn’t need to know about it by email – ((among others.)) I’m not sure. It is impossible to call some of these places, they don’t want emails, they don’t look at emails most of the time anyway, and they don’t want to be left out of getting the information about it either. Durn. How does it need to be done?

Now the CNN folks are talking about some efforts in Philadelphia to require a license to be purchased for blogging – aren’t the shows about the parking meter wars in Philadelphia where they are booting people’s cars for the revenues already – when does it quit?

Like we don’t have enough problems already. In the country of freedom and capitalism – the government leaders, especially at the local level where it concerns the startups and small businesses, the community residents and economic survival at the most basic levels and freedom and opportunity – these leaders are doing the most harm rather than the most good. It is a shame. And, there is never once a cost cutting measure which includes their own salaries, per diems, office furnishings, overhead, staff, perks, travel, or health benefits and retirement. It is never ending raises and increases for them while they treat the population like medieval England.

Whatever. All it means is that these public officials and their agencies will end up having slimmer revenues over the longer term because the population is busy running around giving them little bits of money here and there today along with all the time spent doing it, the inconveniences of it and the stymieing effects it has, instead of spending their time and resources rebuilding America’s communities and economic foundations. On top of that, as their community leaders and elected officials build and fund an office to police bloggers and the licensing of them, not only are they impeding the opportunities and freedom of speech for those bloggers, they are spending money to police it and fund the office for it. That’s insane. Whose side are they on? Maybe we can send those kinds of officials we have been insulted to endure – over to our enemies to help them out for awhile. That might buy us enough time to fix the economy in the US and then they can come back and muck it up again.

Like I said in an earlier post, whether it is the America the Beautiful Show or anything else – it probably will take a $3 million dollar loan to get the $500 – $1500 of startup money it actually needs. If it takes $300 licenses for it – then the total will be closer to $1500 and maybe more than that if every state where the website reaches requires a whole set of licenses and permits for it. Honestly. They don’t want new businesses and new employment for the United States. These city officials and state elected officials just want to continue getting their own goodies covered regardless what it costs to the rest of us. Sometimes, it is really hard to see anything in this country worth saving when I look at things like that. And, it is everywhere – whether its in the county where I live with their pursuit of over 70,000 misdemeanors a year while letting murderers go or any other petty bit of nonsense that costs us time and money that could be doing something else. It’s ridiculous.

Yep, ridiculous. And, I’ve gotten off target watching the durn CNN stuff again. I ought to just turn it off. I’ve watched a lot of the coverage about Hurricane Katrina – five years later – in the last three days and I haven’t wanted to write about it because – well, just because.

Maybe I’ll just go vacuum something instead and leave all of this for awhile so I can think about it a bit. That’s probably best. If I think about what the US has been like for the last thirty years, and how the people and local governments are even now – I probably will find it much harder to create anything of any value whatsoever to help anybody – ever. It would just seem rather pointless – now wouldn’t it really . . .

I’ll go vacuum something -

Hmmmmmm……………..

Still can’t find the proposal made to Staples and there was something else I was looking for on my computer that hasn’t been found yet and now what was it? Hmmmm…….. Need to make better notes.

Last weekend, I did make a separate document for each of the places I had emailed or contacted – which is good and they are all in one file. They had been on several documents with all the contact info listed in the same order as they were sent. Those six documents weren’t changed and that is where the proposal stuff is somewhere, unless I made a separate document just of that . . .

Let’s see.

*******

A little of today’s efforts on the America the Beautiful Show project and building a business with nothing to start with – from scratch more or less

There was a great story on CNN a little bit ago – with Grameen Bank microloan innovator and founder, Muhammed Yunus – very, very nifty with Ali Velshi.

Hmmmmm……….

Going to look into that.

Also, yesterday – I walked up to the MicroCenter and bought the memory chip for the computer that was buggared putting the Norton Security Suite on it. I’m about to take the computer apart and do brain surgery on it. The files and website were copied over to the external drive, just in case – about an hour ago. Now, to get the computer out from under the table, grab the paintbrushes to get the dust out while I’m doing this and hopefully, I’ll still have a computer when I’m done.

There’ve been 365 channel views of the YouTube videos – very nifty – and 136 uploads of the videos – also very nifty. I worked on the website a bit this morning and it didn’t crash the computer thankfully. I still need a good way to tell people about it besides emailing places to tell them which probably isn’t anything except spam to them. I’m thinking of calling first as a possible solution.

Well, on to brain surgery on the computer. Wish me luck.

America the Beautiful Show efforts today

So far today, I’ve been fighting with the computers, trying to upload some music videos made before yesterday and I received a reply from Staples “Sponsorwise” company that reviews proposals rejecting the America the Beautiful Show project for sponsorship or advertising on the site. So – it is a nice day otherwise.

It could be that I submitted the proposal to the wrong section – but Staples and most other large companies have secondary contracts with companies to review everything first and then choose to send it along or not. I’ve never made it past that stage – so its par for the course. But, like I said, I may have submitted it to the wrong section intended only for non-profits and there – I don’t know which it was since it was their auto-reply suggestion to submit it that way and I followed that. It looks like I will need to create other options for getting advertisers on the site to keep it going. Maybe I need to list it on Ebay and sell the durn thing. I’m not doing very well with it. And, if I don’t do something – it won’t be online next month.

I should’ve known that it would take a $3 million dollar loan to do this . . .

just to fund a startup that needs less than $500 to get started.

Strangely enough, I don’t want to spend the next two years messing with this project – I’ve already put a little over two years into it just getting it to this point – The America the Beautiful Show. I have some other projects that really interest me more and I’m very tired of this one. Two years working on it and not one thing to show for it except a website or two and some really slim chances of it working, not because the idea, the concept or the business model isn’t sound, but because I’m a moron.

The videos I uploaded today -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oes3M-OUL4s

You know, I could write the software for something or get one of those rapid prototyping machines to build the prototypes from my designs, and I still wouldn’t have a business that makes money from any of it. But, then the guy who created the television didn’t get anything for it either to speak of. It has given me something to do with my sparetime though.

Here is the other video -

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FJR0OP33SM

In case you’re wondering – Coca Cola corporation said no also with a nice form letter from their submission company. Isn’t that special. Makes me wonder how much of any thing that comes to them does get sent on along. I’m starting to get curious. Uh-oh. Sounds like a news story to me.

- cricketdiane

And, I’m wondering how much these companies are making to review the submissions, too. I can send out an auto-reply just as good as they can.

***

Hmmmmm…………..  so much for nuclear fusion, carbon nanofabrics and earthquake resistant fabrics to reinforce masonry. No wonder that company out in California making a new kind of concrete isn’t doing it all over America. That’s probably why geothermal plants exist scarcely and why the paving stones and concrete that absorbs pollutants isn’t being used everywhere as well. And, the same is true for the little piezoelectric energy converters that take the energy from passing vehicles to make electricity.

And, unfortunately – so much for having more employment opportunities in America during the rest of our lifetimes, including those of my children and their children. Oh well. Maybe everybody can go work for Pfizer or the government.

My Note -

That was the most bizarre experience I had this morning about 5 am with an online tech specialist who worked with my computer a bit from his office after I buggared my computer putting on the Norton Security Suite. And, now – somehow, I’ve got to go get some more memory for my computer or else it isn’t going to do much at all, because the Norton programs use almost the entire memory available. I’m not even sure if I can finish working on the website updates or if those will have to wait until after I walk up to the MicroCenter, give them a bunch of money and get some chips to send it up to 1 GB instead of the whatever it has now – which is about 3 kb.

No, I know that isn’t accurate – it just feels like 3kb when I’m trying to do anything. There is little wrong with this computer that another brand new dual core processor and about 3 Gb of RAM wouldn’t fix or that another new computer driven up under it wouldn’t fix. Oh well. I guess throwing it through the wall wouldn’t help the wall any but it sure would make it easier to feel good about this computer. At least temporarily, until I tried to start it again after that. It might not like me after getting thrown at the wall.

This is ridiculous – I’m in a relationship with a computer.

So, I was looking at some drafts I had saved which included a list of physics conferences – and it seemed like a good thing to include those at the top of this post from the list because they are the ones that interest me the most and are going on right now – or about to happen anyway.

And, since I’m working on the “Tools” page for the America the Beautiful Show website – in order to post some really nifty ideas and useful things along with trying to write some press releases to tell people about the project, I’ve been sorting out how to work with those elements to present them in an appropriate context.

What I mean is – how do I tell someone reading the website or reading a press release about it – that it is possible to take the information from research labs, universities, small tech companies and physics conference, for instance – marry them together with the needs that exist in the marketplace to produce products and services for it while simply licensing the technology and resources from those original sources?

How do I explain that in some sensible, yet easily understandable way? And, how do I put those resources on the website to do that without just confusing the hoodookeys out of everybody that reads it?

And how do I fit that together with the “blog” type stories and possible press releases about the America the Beautiful Show which would probably have to have titles like these -

“10 Good Reasons to be Patriotic”

“10 Good Reasons to Build Our Own Jobs in America”

“The Sky’s the Limit Club”

“Electric Candy Business Startup Tools”

“5 Handy Concepts to Use For Brainstorming Solutions”

“How the America the Beautiful Show Can Help Your Community”

“50 Ways to Think Outside The Everyday Ways to Do a Business”

(etc. – I have made a list somewhere)

Hmmmmm…………………..

I’ll never get there from here. Which reminds me of a story – a true story from when I lived out in West Georgia. No matter which way I asked this old man about how to get somewhere – he would launch into this long drawn out explanation about going down through this holler, turning at old man somebody’s tree near where some farm used to be, going round this bend, down some fork in the road – and then he’d scratch his head and say – Naw, you cain’t git there from here.

And – it might have come straight out of the old tv show, Hee Haw – or it could’ve been that’s where the show got it, but he wasn’t the only one that genuinely didn’t think there was much funny about it at all – because most places in West Georgia – he was right, you couldn’t get there from here. And, anywhere beyond it – you couldn’t get to either unless there was a whole lot of dirt roads, muddy hollers and four wheel traction involved. But, I always remember that when lost in a place my mind just won’t go. And, maybe I can’t get there from here – it is a possibility.

The fact is, there is a shopping list over at the DoD and elsewhere for that matter – and there are all these marvelous new things being created, designed, tested, researched, studied ad infinitum – at universities, and at research labs all over the world. They need to be matched up with manufacturing processes and engineering which takes the research and applies it into palatable products and services for the marketplace. That’s supposed to be where business comes in and does that part. But in many cases, unless there is an assured and guaranteed short-term return of 3 – 5 times what investors have put into it, then there’s no real startup capital.

Hmmm………

But, individuals creating teams of startups to manufacture these things and bring them to market across the US could fix that. There could be engineering done to apply these researched and studied discoveries to the needs known in the marketplace – from the DoD shopping list to those still obvious to this day around the world. It could be – it could make jobs and large groups of employment whether the products are actually manufactured in the US or wherever else because it would sustain new businesses and new profits and new profitability for existing businesses.

I need to find a way to say it and then post the links I’ve found for doing it on the last page of the America the Beautiful Show website. Then people seeing the website can have available some of the possibilities that exist right now, in order to have a starting place in the middle of the book rather than starting at the word “The” on the first page when thinking of how to build a business in America together with their community.

See, my mind can’t get around the problem of how that fits with “10 good ways to start a business” kinds of press releases and blog entries and writing styles – it just doesn’t fit together. And, I can’t get there from here.

Durn.

Here is the page I have set up to put the tools – there is nothing on it yet online – but I’ve been working with it for the last four days in Publisher.

http://www.americathebeautifulshow.com/index_files/americathebeautifulshow28.htm

Of course, since I added the Norton Security stuff which buggared the available memory last night – I haven’t tried to open the Publisher program. It may not even work now especially since it is a huge memory user too.

I’ve been scared to try opening it since the computer could crash doing it. I realized for a long time now that I needed to spend $50 – $75 and get some memory upgrades but I also need a cd-rom on the durn thing too and Microsoft word on both computers and Adobe Photoshop and I’ve been buying website hosting and domain names with the tiny bit of sacrificed extra – which isn’t going to go very far as it is. And, I’m supposed to run down and get a business license at some point and register the name and register the LLC with the state office along with registering the trade name there too. It can’t be done.

Those great little community based access points for business loans all require collateral and exceptional credit ratings despite being given the money to distribute based on getting it to people without those things. And, the small business administration – I don’t even want to run around in those infinite circles again – usually the same problem, collateral or nothing comes of it.  My daughters tell me that it is all intended to keep the poor down and never let anyone get beyond that class who finds themselves in it. They may be right. Like I said yesterday, the chances are that the only thing I will get from doing the America the Beautiful Show website or any other business concept I have is a stay in a mental hospital while everything I own gets thrown out into the street. I’ve lost everything more than 9 times in my life because of that and it doesn’t help anything. I’m tired of starting the research over after watching it be toted off to the dumpster or out into the street while I’m forced to take medications that make life a living hell. And, because of that too – nobody is going to invest in me doing a business or anything else. I know that.

And, I’m tired of working with everything I have to educate myself, create things, build things, research and design things – then be told that it is nothing but a delusion to believe I know anything about anything. I’m over it. That is bullshit. One psychiatrist explained to me in group therapy at a mental hospital that I should try to paint one painting a year if I wanted to try to be an artist – despite the fact that for over twenty years at that time, I had already produced 5,000 plus paintings and sculptures – whether or not they qualified as “fine art” in the gallery sense of the word.

My family had to bring photos of my paintings and an actual 3 foot by 4 foot oil painting – a portrait of a lady and castle against the backdrop the planet earth hanging in the universe – for him to even believe it. And, then he apologized but didn’t change the paperwork that said my belief that I’m an artist was the reason to be considered delusional. I give up. They are making money. I’m not. They’ve made a business out of screwing people’s lives into irreparable nightmares while they live in nice homes. I don’t even get to be part of the community, let alone have any employment, business or real income. Yes, I still have issues with the way America has been run for the last thirty years and it hasn’t gotten a durn bit better either – except to add more people into the same place where I’ve been sitting for all this time. I’m not trying to be somebody I’m not. I’m wanting to have the right to be who I am, where I live in America. Is that so hard to understand? Is that so outlandish and some way unacceptable as to put me in the class of criminals and undesirables and keep what I can do out of the marketplace?

And, on top of the fact that my take from all this is probably going to be homelessness rather than profits or rewards of any good kind, I can’t get my head around how to tell people the simplest things from where I sit. If it doesn’t have to do with somebody’s boyfriend cheating on them, or finding a teenager texting too much or what kind of shoes First Lady Michelle Obama is wearing this week, nobody wants to know about it anyway. And, maybe I just don’t know. Maybe other people are having the same problems building businesses that I am – no rewards, hundreds of thousands of risks.

I’m just talking it out. Maybe I’ll go create some music and record it to upload to the YouTube page. I had a great video clip of America the Beautiful with a bluesy twist that was too long when I uploaded it. Maybe I’ll do that awhile and the other things will sort out in my mind. Then, walk up and take my last fifty dollars to my name and buy some RAM chips from the MicroCenter. And pay the cellphone bill and take out the trash. Then, maybe I’ll know how to approach the website page with the information I want to put there and how to bring it all together in some press releases to send. I have places to submit them if – I can just see how it fits with the ways they are presenting information to the public generally. That’s what I’ll do – go make some new music and film it. Then, I won’t be in Georgia at all – I’ll be vacationing in the middle of the universe for awhile. That would be good.

P.S. – I haven’t written about the floods in Pakistan (on my blog) for two reasons . . .

1. There are resources already in place in the area and they are not half-ass using them.

(and)

2. The international resources groups at the UN and elsewhere that are responsible for getting help to them can’t seem to get $10 to where it was intended to be used. (and I don’t know why) – which is mucking up a lot more than getting aid for the flood victims in Pakistan (and to Haiti’s earthquake survivors and to Chile and elsewhere.) As far as I can tell, there are literally billions of dollars missing in action, and billions of dollars worth of goods that aren’t anywhere it seems, though they were sent to help – some of which were purchased with that money and never got to anybody affected by the event.)

(and)

3. which I wasn’t going to say, but I will – the well-known international aid organizations and other very solid “non-profit” organizations responsible for getting aid where it is intended to go are dicking around with money given to them for the victims of various horrific events – and I don’t know why that is either. (unless they’ve put it in portfolios of stocks or something intending to leverage it and use the dividends to supply aid instead of the actual moneys donated to them for it. I’m still checking on that one – it isn’t even worth talking about it. The Pakistan flood victims have been two weeks in the muddy waters, many without food, sustenance, shelter or clean water. Add to that the multitude of inept and incompetent events surrounding Haiti’s recovery – and you will see what I mean,) I’m just not even going to talk about it at this point.

My Note –

I’m thinking that maybe somewhere on the site – in the last three pages or at the bottom of the Product Details page which has some info about us, and about the project – it would be good to include some other things I’ve written and created.

Other things I’ve written -

Field Guide to Independent Living – (written but unpublished)

Got No Money Guides – (published online except for a few of the entries)

Create-a-Planet Contest - (created and hosted in 1991)

Business Brainstorming Boxes – (built but unpublished – Christmas presents for my children that were never given to them)

Baby Crickets Pocket Art – Art Cards w/Ocean and Coffee Themes, Days of the Week and Months of the Year (and Stolen Art – Treasure Cards)

There was something else or two or three or a dozen – where was that file?

(etc.)

Okay, not (etc.) -

There are some other things I’ve built, created, written, designed, invented, researched, painted, organized, worked on, and originated.

And, there are a lot of those still not made public yet. Over many years – I’ve been working on some of them and some are sitting in files or in stacks of work sitting here waiting to be public – to be brought into the market.

Okay – I’m not making a list. I already have one in a file somewhere. And, I’m not going to go looking for it either. Its none of your business. Oh, I did not say that.

It might be helpful to include some of these things on the website about the America the Beautiful Show – but I doubt it. There really is not an interest in what ugly poor people have been doing with themselves for the last forty years, including me. Give me a break, I’m not even going to try dealing with that.

There might be some useful information in it that could be helpful to people designing an event for their communities – I’ll include it as I find it in my files or in research documents on my computer. It really wasn’t my intention to be adding video clips on YouTube of me at all nor of making music off the cuff as I do at home a lot of times – but I didn’t own anything else and I’m not paying to subscribe to the music producers association that owns all the rights to any music ever written. So, I was stuck with just creating my own to use. In fact, it has taken about thirty video clips to get one or two worth watching.

After trying to talk just about anybody into making the quickie video explanation about the America the Beautiful Show concept – I finally gave up and just did it myself yesterday. It only took making, I don’t know – 8 or 9 or 15 videos to get it.

Something like that – I’m just guessing when I set up the camera, and apparently filming in the sunroom is not my friend. And, I never notice the fans going until after the sound shows up on the camera when looking at the video . . .

I’ve come to the conclusion that the best way to get time by myself is to describe some project I’m working on and ask people in my little group of family and friends to help me with it. Then, all of a sudden – they get scarce and its as if I uttered the four letter word – starting with a “W” – I don’t know why they think this isn’t fun. Maybe it isn’t. It definitely has its moments of agita and frustrationus maximus – but mostly that comes before the world ever gets to see any of it – from the very people around me at my elbows whose idea of what I should be doing encompasses nothing and more of nothing and then nothing after that – except they all seem to want me to keep working on my projects but just not at the point of bringing any of them to the market.

Once I get to that threshold – and beyond it, its as if everything that is possible to anyone else in the world, cannot possibly be available to me according to those around me. I don’t get it.

Or maybe they simply believe that nothing valuable is the only thing I have any right to do since I don’t own a hundred million dollars in my back pocket or have a PhD behind my name.

I don’t mind having a list of what can go wrong – I can understand that and have made a very good way of handling those items of information which make it very helpful. But, I don’t want to see the America the Beautiful Show project fail simply because I can’t do it right or make it happen. I’m not particularly keen on being homeless over it – but that certainly might be the only thing I get out of it at this point.

It is possible that the only rewards I will see out of it is to have everything I own including all my research, designs, projects, inventions and belongings, thrown out into the landfill or the street or the dumpster or all of the above – when people in my community, the state of Georgia and the support systems helping me to have a place to live decide that I shouldn’t be doing this. That’s actually the most likely scenario for my personal life from previous experiences I have had with my family, my friends, the community where I live, the state of Georgia and the support systems that are helping me survive as a poor and disabled person.

I don’t know why I bother. There generally isn’t any good that comes out of it for me. And, there likely won’t be this time either from what I know of past experiences. But, I know that. And, I would still rather do it than not.

It occurs to me that – I should say something on the America the Beautiful Show website and here about a fact which I’ve shared with my children and a few of my friends at times. And it is this -

The same horrible life experiences that cause some people to go shoot up places and cause terrible pain, crimes, and horrors to others – are the same horrible life experiences and traumas that create the greatest and most brilliant geniuses of our time. In fact, across all of human history – that is true and it is true in every genre, in every arena, in every kind and measure of genius that has improved life for all of humanity. They were not born of great things and great measures. They experienced horrible life traumas and events that would make the mind irreparable – and yet they succeeded in transforming life for the better for all of us – and sometimes, even improved our lives throughout history for hundreds of years after they lived.

There was a choice they made to do it that way rather than to act out against humanity around them. That is true meaning of free will. We can choose what we do with it. Those life experiences can build our character – but what we do with it is up to us to decide. Read the story of Lucille Ball sometime and what her life was like growing up. Read the stories of great writers, musicians, inventors, politicians, statesmen, mathematics and physics geniuses – they weren’t born or created in perfect happiness, but rather from tremendous sadness and difficulty.

However, that being said – I’m tired of sadness and difficulty. I think I’ve had enough to build character now and I’m ready to do something else.

Just a thought.

And, it sure is hard to keep working to do something good for humanity when “they” – (the people in humanity, especially ones related to me) all get to run around and act as shitty as they want to, all the time, to anybody and everybody including me. It makes it hard to see that its a worthwhile idea to do good things and to try to do great things for the world around me. I think that’s why Candide was written actually.

Maybe there just is no good in it. For some reason our world only kisses the feet of those who’ve made millions of dollars – even when they did it by screwing everybody else out of their hard-earned money to get it. And, it seems like the greatest rewards and kudos are given to those who’ve done the least to get that money based on the most they could get for the least amount of effort rather than honor and decency going to those that have worked hard for it.

Interesting – the facts are exactly the opposite of what is taught and said by most people – I guess that’s no surprise. Look at Wall Street. Those clowns couldn’t cross the street without help and a driver and a GPS and a secretary or assistant to tell them how to do it – but those jackasses make more money than anyone could use in a lifetime. They get air time on any broadcast within a minute’s phone call with honor and respect given to them without question anywhere they go for anything they might say. It’s as if the money they have makes people believe their words and ideas are knowledgeable and wise. Sometimes – they might be knowledgeable and wise, too – but even I know that what goes up must come down, including house prices and real estate and valuations and markets – where was that information among the Wall Street traders, brokers and hedge fund managers, bankers, mortgagers, cdo makers and financial tycoons?

Give me another minute and I will have talked myself out of doing this America the Beautiful Show thing at all – I only paid for it to be online for the month of August and it could just be let go of – and I can go do something else – like take a trip to the beach, or take a trip to Washington DC to see the capitol and the Smithsonian, or go to New York and see daughter and grandbaby.

Or, I could do something really worthwhile according to American values and create another shifty financial product that could rob people of their life savings like Bernie Madoff and others have done. We sure need a new credit derivative, cdo type package or mortgage backed securities piece of crap to trade that costs people more than they ever put into it or could ever hope to get back from it. That way – everybody in America would think I’m wonderful, too. And, they might listen to what I have to say about something – and I could buy a house and a bunch of good cars, even electric ones and hybrids and vacation homes and maybe a yacht to run around the Georgia lake basins looking like somebody. Ooh yeah – wouldn’t that be fun.

But, no. -

A new video clip about The America the Beautiful Show project to explain it a little better

After taking all day to do it – I finally have one little video clip that explains the America the Beautiful Show.

One of the other things I did this weekend, was to adjust the products to be offered and work on the website. I also straightened out some of the computer files that had accumulated.

And here is the script that I started to do – but then it didn’t work very well to read the words off a piece of paper and hold the camera and read it like the words made sentences – all at the same time.

I wanted to tell you about the America the Beautiful Show. I started it a couple years ago, because it looked like our country was going into an economic disaster.

That isn’t just a news story.

It means that when I go to buy groceries, it costs more. When my children, who are grown children or I or our neighbors or our friends, need a job – there isn’t one.

It means that when there’s a job fair, instead of a couple hundred people showing up or even a couple thousand, there’s tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people vying for the same three jobs.

It means that when its time to rent something or buy something, or buy a house or a car, that there’s no way to do it.

It means when its time for credit, that there’s no way to get that either.

And it means that when, businesses are trying to survive in the community, when they’re looking for customers with money – to guide them to the right restaurant tonight, or the right retailer tomorrow, that those customers are not there. That they don’t have the money to spend, if they do come.

And, in fact – that’s what we’ve dealt with – in fact, that’s what our country’s dealt with for a little more than two years, but certainly, it’s been obvious in the last two years. And, there were plenty of experts that said it would go away quickly – in a couple months. Well, it’ll all be just fine in a couple months and maybe six months or nine months – and it wasn’t.

It really wasn’t okay then.

And, it isn’t okay now.

And, long term unemployment is not okay – I know I’ve been there. I’ve lived it.

It’s not only not healthy for the self-esteem, it isn’t healthy for the community either.

So, I had an idea a couple years ago, that if our communities had a way to come together, bring businesses and people who live in the community together then resources could be shared across – those things could be available to everyone and there could be a supportive environment for the communities to rebuild the economy at that level – starting at the ground up, instead of starting from the top down.

Well, we’ve done a lot of things from the top down already. The only thing we’re missing is that there has to be a way to build our communities and their economies from where they sit.

That’s where real innovation occurs anyway – that’s where invention happens, where creativity happens – it doesn’t happen in the boardroom, it happens at the kitchen table, it happens where people are really living.

And, that’s where we’ll get new products, and that’s where we’ll get innovations and new businesses and new business models. But, there has to be a supportive and encouraging environment there or it doesn’t happen.

Where everyone is isolated in the community and everybody’s just about the Lone Ranger in that community, the businesses are on one side and the government leaders are on another and the residents are kept out of that loop entirely  – that isn’t a supportive environment where innovation and invention and new businesses can prosper. It isn’t even a place to harvest new customers.

But it doesn’t have to be that way.

The invention that I made of – well an idea really – of the America the Beautiful Show is that each community can build its own. It can go to the website I’ve built and have all the tools to cross into their community with those tools – reach out to the community with sponsors and businesses and residents and teams and put together the show for themselves.

And, it explains it all on the website. Well, I would tell you, let’s see – right now where is that -

www.americathebeautifulshow.com

I’m reading it off this card – maybe that’ll show up on the camera.

It works.

And, the America the Beautiful Show works, too.

There’ve been a lot of other invention and innovation conferences and events and -

They’re great.

They really are great. There’s a lot of great information. I can find it online.

Where I can’t find it – is being used in the communities where it was supposed to find its way.

It didn’t get there.

Most of the people in the communities didn’t even know about it and a lot of times, if I hadn’t looked for it online – gone through pages and pages of searches, I wouldn’t have ever found it.

Most people that need it aren’t finding it either. Those things are great. They need to be incorporated in this plan to show these things to the community – to bring them into the real atmosphere where they’re used.

And I really believe this can build our communities’ from the ground up in their economic and financial stability, and foundation – and growth, prosperity. I think it can come again.

But it has to start somewhere. It has to start somewhere.
