New Zealand Really Is Different

The photo below is of some clouds over New Zealand.

 

A bit startling , wouldn't you say?

(click to enlarge)

 

Now that's something worth writing home about.

This from "Astronomy Picture of the Day":

Explanation: What kind of clouds are these? Although their cause is presently unknown, such unusual atmospheric structures, as menacing as they might seem, do not appear to be harbingers of meteorological doom.

Oh well...

If this kind of cloud  ever appeared over Sedona, Arizona, I'd still bet all those covens full of self-made witches that play in the rocks around there would pee in their panties.(if they wore any)

Slow day today... sorry.

To Be A Fly On The Wall...

I would love to know what had just been said that that generated the Expressions seen in the photo below:

Somebody really got under their akin...

I would have had to have been a fly on the wall, because I'd never go to any gathering where these two disbarred lawyers were present.

Really... they were both once lawyers, but  "surrendered their licenses" before they were charged with crimes.

He surrendered his license back in 2008 in order to escape charges he lied on his bar application.

Michelle Obama "voluntarily surrendered" her law license in 1993. after a Federal Judge gave her the choice between surrendering her license or standing trial for Insurance fraud.

 

Lying. Insurance fraud.

 

It's hard to accept that these two criminals actually made it to the United States White House.


 

Some Men Are Coming To Kill Us...

...so We're going to kill them first.

James Bond... He has his own solution.

So says James Bond in the trailers for his latest movie.

First time I heard it, I was a bit taken aback at the bluntness and rawness of the statement, It cuts through just about all the barriers and rules we as civilized people have erected around ourselves that determine when we will - or will not - intentionally set out to kill other humans.

This Bond trailer is being  played everywhere, many times a day on  many different TV channels, so a large majority of us  already have this statement recorded into our sub-conscious.

I have no idea if this is a attempt to make us all somehow feel that "they" are coming to kill us, but considering the reality we are all facing it may indeed be a warning to us all.

Consider a few undeniable facts:

The Department of Homeland Security has purchased almost 1.4 billion  rounds of ammunition recently. Not target practice ammunition, but bullets like hollow points, bullets created for one purpose only... to kill people.   http://rt.com/usa/dhs-ammo-rounds-security-560/

We are headed for a financial crash that will be epic in nature. There will be massive food riots in the big cities, places where you may be killed for a can of beans. Every economist on the planet is now warning of the  impending worldwide economic and financial collapse that will be triggered by the collapse of the American financial system. Most are now agreeing on the approximate time frame: mid 2014 to mid 2115. If you are poo-pooing this, don't bother to read any further. Just go away and keep up your partying and fun.

Now comes this bombshell:

Minnesota-based Law Enforcement Training Inc is producing shooting targets which feature “non traditional” threats amidst banal environments such as a pregnant woman in a nursery, a mother in a school playground and a little boy.

The company says the targets are designed to help override “hesitation on the part of cops when deadly force is required on subjects with atypical age, frailty or condition,” and to “break that stereotype on the range, regardless of how slim the chances are of encountering a real life scenario that involves a child, pregnant woman, etc.”

 

The company further claimed that  the targets were being make specifically for the DHS. Below are some of those the "No hesitation" targets:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are more, you can find them now anywhere in the net.

Notice one thing about all of the targets... they are all of obviously white intelligent-looking Americans. Even a five or six year-old boy!

No Mexicans, Blacks or Indians.  No Mexicans innocently sitting around cooking tacos, no blacks happily playing basketball on the streets, no Indians selling jewelry on the plaza,

What sort of cop is our government creating? The developing picture of what we will soon see on our streets is chilling.

Maybe the statement Bond is making in his movie is actually - even if unintentionally -  a warning to prepare.

A Most Remarkable Phenomena

Today's "Astronomy Picture of the Day" is another shot of  Saturn's North Pole and its bizarre cloud pattern in great detail, an image taken by the Saturn-orbiting  Cassini spacecraft.

The hexagon pattern in the clouds of Saturn's north Pole.

(click on to enlarge) 

 

First photographed over twenty years ago, this incredible cloud formation has not dissipated or changed in any significant manner since it was first discovered. The hexagon is large enough to put four earths inside it side by side.

To me, it looks almost as if the hexagon itself rises well above the regular cloud surface, but I suppose that's just a optical illusion  since the darker portion in the rear looks to be as flat as everything else.

No one has a clue as to how this cloud pattern was formed, how long its been around, or how much longer it will remain. Some may try to explain them as clouds produced by an atmospheric phenomenon known as "closed Rayleigh-Binard convection cells." That's a theory that's trying to explain some  partially hexagon-shaped clouds on earth, but on a scale many  magnitudes smaller.

Regardless, it has to be one of the most unusual structures in the solar system.

Just A Dribble Now?

Poor Fellas. They may start feeling a bit lonely any day now.

Janet Napolitano toured the Arizona border Tuesday afternoon with U.S. Customs and Border Protection Deputy Commissioner David Aguilar, Democratic Rep. Ron Barber of Arizona and Democratic Sen. Tom Carper of Delaware. Carper is the incoming chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee.
She said in a statement after the tour that border crossings are down 50 percent since 2008 and 78 percent since their peak in 2000.

Well now.

Mexico must finally be running out of bodies to shove across the border of the United States, because border security is still a fairy tale.

Mexico should soon become a shining model of a prosperous and thriving nation now that they no longer have to support the 50 million ignorant, uneducated and unskilled peons that have "immigrated" to the United States.

Ain't America great?

Survival Or Suicide?

 

 

Allowing people like this to get near a polling booth is suicide.

 

Ohio poll worker Melowese Richardson is the target of a voter fraud probe after telling a television station she voted multiple times for President Obama, as authorities say she may have voted 6 times in the 2012 election.

She says she voted for Obama six times. How many times was this fraud committed by how many people in how many polling booths?  Enough times to re-elect Obama, an  amateur politician soaking in communist ideology?

It is beyond obvious that voting fraud could have been rampant enough in our last election to turn the tide in Obama;s favor.

Our Republic cannot survive this kind of braindead stupidity, this lawlessness, this "don"t give a damn about the laws" attitude by millions of  ignorant, uneducated and just plain stupid bio-masses we laughingly refer to as citizens.

There was a time when voting more than once meant jail time. Now it's something to brag about on national TV. This ignorant pinhead no doubt believes Obama will give her everything she ever wanted(without having to work for it, of course).  However, she - just like us - will freefall along with the rest of us when the bottom falls out.

But she will blame you and me for her problems, not the  amateur politician soaked in communist ideology she voted for that is driving us over the economic and fiscal cliff.

How many idiots out there actually believe Obama when he claims to have reduced the national debt by two trillion dollars? The undeniable and provable facts are that the national debt has risen by six trillion dollars under Obama. Obama  is a baldfaced liar, driven by his  communist ideology, and blind to the repeated failures of Communist regimes worldwide.

You may think I am racist for making comments like this about two minorities.  Whether that is true or not is not important. What IS important is that Obama is indeed an  amateur politician soaking in communist ideology, and  Melowese Richardson is a lawbreaker that should be in jail.

The dismal fact is that we are committing national suicide by allowing this sort of thing to continue without challenge. If you are one of the many left-liberals that don't think so, then I will get a measure of satisfaction watching your stunned disbelief, your panic and unabashed fear as we all go over the cliff.

That Pollyannish view of the ocean, the shining sun, the gently rolling waves on the beautiful sandy beaches of those paradise islands on the far-off and  mist-hidden horizon - whatever the hell it is liberal fools think is waiting for them, ignores one minor detail -  those rocks at the bottom of the cliff. Our financial and economic system is collapsing and when it does, there will huge riots such as we have never seen, burning cities and mass starvation.

Think it out: The dollar collapses. A dollar won't buy a spoonful of dirt.  Truckers can't buy fuel at any price. Truckers deliver all the food into the big cities. The deliveries stop. All the food stores empty in hours.

If the truckers can't buy fuel for - say - six weeks as the money system is revamped with a new currency(that's what government experts estimate is the time needed) every big city in America will be full of starving and dying people that will try to rush out into the countryside, plundering and stealing, killing anybody for even a can of beans. What they will get is shot dead.

Now you know why the DHS is buying billions of rounds of ammunition. They know what's about to happen.

Whatever marvelous world it is these liberals and progressives - also  soaking in communist ideology -  think Obama and his cronies are creating,  is only in their minds. When they find that this new world of theirs will dish out a much harsher and crueler reality, then we'll all be sorry.

But don't blame everything on that idiot Obama. He's nothing more than a smooth-talking puppet leading a huge pack of useful idiots. Blame the bankers who created all this mess.  Blame those cretins at the Fed and the huge banking systems worldwide who are destroying entire nations. Check their nationalities and their alliances. A few of us already know, the rest will be stunned.

That clueless fool of a Ohio poll worker Melowese Richardson has no idea, never will.  She will never have enough sense or knowledge to even blame the right people. She will only believe she has been robbed of her "fair share", stripped of her heritage, and no matter what reality demands, she will blame the white race for everything.

That's the way she's been raised.  She will go to her grave blaming everybody but herself.

But  I really can't put all the blame on idiots like her.  After my six years of honorable military service, I spent the rest of my life trying to feather my own nest, depending on our elected officials to guard the Republic, to lead the nation on a sane and prosperous path.

That makes me as big an idiot as dear ole' Melowese.

Is This Insanity For Real?

Senator Barbara Boxer. Over the hill and round the bend.

Time to put her out to pasture.

President Barack Obama and the Democratic Senate are considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans. The Americans with No Abilities Act is being hailed as a major legislative goal by advocates of the millions of Americans who lack any real skills or ambition.
“Roughly 50 percent of Americans do not possess the competence and drive necessary to carve out a meaningful role for themselves in society,” said California Sen. Barbara Boxer.

Said Boxer:

"We can no longer stand by and allow People of Inability (POI) to be ridiculed and passed over. With this legislation, employers will no longer be able to grant special favors to a small group of workers, simply because they have some idea of what they are doing."

It's hard to believe what I'm reading here. A bit of translation is in order:

"employers will no longer" - against the law.

"be able to grant special favors" - like getting hired for a job.

"to a small group of workers" - the ones that a capable of doing the work.

"simply because they have some idea of what they are doing."  What? An employer will no longer be able to hire someone based on experience and skill? That's just plain nuts.

Barbara Boxer has lost her marbles and needs to be removed from office. Even the California loonies, leftists and liberals that keep putting her back into the Senate should realize that this new law will go against them, a law that will give the mentally deficient, the unskilled and just plain stupid front line privileges for any available job.

And employers might just as well close up shop and lock the doors if they can't hire the people they need to stay in business.

Bottom line... If Boxer really means this, she is no longer mentally capable of performing her Senatorial tasks.

California, get rid of her.

"President Barack Obama and the Democratic Senate are considering sweeping legislation that will provide new benefits for many Americans." That's just plain nuts also.

They are crazy to believe that.  Forcing employers to hire a bunch of clueless morons will absolutely destroy any business, resulting in zero benefits for anybody.

Putin was right... He recently said that Obama is either stupid or intentionally trying to destroy the American economy. I believe Obama is both.

One thing for certain: Obama is not the intellectual genius his admirers think he is. Without his writers and teleprompters, he's just another tongue-tied bumbler.

It's time to take the gloves off people... these lunatics are getting ready to cause some real damage.

Granny Loves Wind

Granny posts another head turner:

Wowzers!

But wait a minute, just how much energy was that?

Madrid, Spain -- Spain saw wind power become its main source of electricity generation last month, underscoring the country's progress in becoming one of Europe's greenest nations.
      

http://www.renewableenergyworld.com/rea/news/article/2011/04/wind-becomes-spains-biggest-energy-source

Power network operator  Red Electra (REE) said Iberian wind farms generated 4,738 GWh of electricity in March to meet 21% of demand, 5% above the year-ago monthly rate, fueled by heavier winds than usual.

Altogether, clean energy met 42.2% of electricity demand though this was down from 48.5 percent against March 2010.
Hydropower accounted for 17.3%, solar energy for 2.6%, nuclear for 19% and coal-powered for 12.9%.

Oh.  So that number one source of energy - wind - delivered only 21% of what was needed.

It's great to see that Spain - with a population of 44,955,079 in  2012 - got 42.2% of it's power need from it's renewables.  That included wind, solar, and hydro.

Ok... back to where we live:

The United States had a population of 315,159,000 in 2012, more or less, not counting those 12-20 million illegals nobody wants to count.

It's all a matter of scale... Spain's total clean energy supply of 42.2% for their 45 million citizens would be only 6% of the needs for our 315 million citizens(not including illegals).

Remember the Iceland poster about Iceland receiving 100% of their energy needs from geothermal? Yeah...  well, Iceland has less than 400,000 citizens.

You gotta take these green energy claims in context. What sounds great for someone else may not work worth a damn for us.

A modern aircraft carrier 1,000 feet long can carry 100 modern aircraft. Does that mean that a 10,000 foot aircraft carrier could carry 1,000 aircraft? One may suppose so, but who on planet earth could afford to build a  two-mile-long aircraft carrier? Plus a thousand modern aircraft?

Like I said, it's a matter of scale.

What with the billions and billions we have already spent on wind and solar, they still only provide about 6% of our energy needs. To get to Spain's 42.2% mark would take more money than we will ever have available, what with the back-breaking demands we already have on our national treasury.

And then there's that teenie little fact that we're 16 trillion in debt and flat broke, and have to borrow 40% of the money we need just to make it from day-to-day.

Sorta sad... maybe we could have had afforded to build sufficient renewables if Congress hadn't spent us into bankruptcy already.






 

Christopher Dorner

 

Chtistopher Dorner. Maybe he's not what the press portrays him as.

 

Read what the press calls his "manifesto". While he is obviously a white-hating far left liberal and a very angry man,  he doesn't come across as the maddog liar they would have us believe. His hatred for all things cop may have some real justification.

I suspect this man did expose a lot of the actual criminality in the LAPD and was destroyed because of it.  I wouldn't be surprised if those people he named actually did the things he says they did.

I am a bit surprised that I am actually hoping this man survives the present manhunt - or death-by-cop drama we are witnessing - so he could continue his exposure of the LAPD while receiving this worldwide spotlight of attention.

They have 10,000 cops beating the bush looking for him, just one well-armed and trained target. They are terrified that any one of them may take a bullet to the head at any moment.

Imagine the consequences if 10 or 100, or 1000 well-armed, well-trained men took up his cause, men sick and tired of SWAT teams kicking in the wrong door, killing the wrong people. living above and outside the law and suffering zero consequences.

That’s a scenario the powers that do not want to contemplate. The chaos would be unimaginable.

Laugh Or Cry?

 

Want one? We'll fly one over your place... no problem.

Iran has long claimed it managed to reverse-engineer the RQ-170 Sentinel, seized in December 2011 after it entered Iranian airspace from its eastern border with Afghanistan, and that it's capable of launching its own production line for the unmanned aircraft.

A video aired late on Wednesday on Iranian TV shows an aerial view of an airport and a city, said to be a US drone base and Kandahar, Afghanistan.

 http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/middleeast/iran/9855020/Iran-shows-footage-extracted-from-US-drone.html

Spies used to carry cyanide pills to use if they were caught. James Bonds brief cases were rigged to blow if they were messed with. All the missiles I ever tracked in the day were equipped with a self-destruct system should something go wrong.

Yet the United States sends unmanned drones into enemy airspace without so much as a firecracker to go bang if it is captured and pried open for study.

I can't decide whether to laugh at their stupidity, or cry at their stupidity.

We have to get over this idea that because they are government people they are really, really smart - all super trained, super educated and other nonsensical stuff - and are able to make better decisions than your average crowbar-wielding Ghetto resident.

Gotta remind ourselves that most of them are graduates of today's university and college system, which means that independent action, logic and critical thinking are completely alien to them.

We spend billions of tax dollars engineering and designing all this hi-tech stuff... and then our government just gives it all away to our competitors and enemies.

Still waiting for somebody with clout to say "Enough is enough!"

 

Useful Idiots

 

Our media people... the joke's on them

From Wikipedia:

In political jargon, useful idiot is a pejorative term for people perceived as propagandists for a cause whose goals they do not understand, and who are used cynically by the leaders of the cause.

After mulling it over for a time, I have concluded that the term "Useful Idiots" more accurately describes our mainstream media than any other term.

Generally college educated, often a standard deviation or two above the norm, these people consider themselves to be smarter, brighter and far more intelligent than ordinary humans. But they have one glaring and fatal blind spot... They haven't studied history, at least the part of history that will affect them.

They are indeed useful idiots in the promoting of all the Progressive/Socialist causes being championed by the likes of Obama, Jarret, Ayers and others. History - which the media is ignoring - has shown us that it is these above-average media types are the first to be rounded up and eliminated, for the very fact that they instantly become serious threats to the new power structure they helped to create. Very few of them will survive, although most of them believe they will be one of the few lucky ones.

How so? Should they wake up to the evils of their new reality, it is assumed they will use their skills and the power of the press to combat the leaders they once admired.

Whether or not they would actually ever wake up matters not. Whether or not they continue to fawn endlessly over the new regime they helped to create matters not.

They become a threat  - real or imagined matters not -  to the power structure,  enough of a threat to have them rounded up and eliminated: Killed, jailed, re-educated...  it matters not.

Just like in the Movie "The Dark Knight", in which the Joker kills his fellow bank robbers outright - they were potential problems and totally unnecessary - after the bank had been robbed.

Consider Obama as the Joker in this scenario, and the media as his fellow criminals.

Wait and see.
 

Diamonds Are Forever. Maybe You And Me Also.

 This blue diamond will outlast us, our planet, even our sun

It is often said that diamonds are forever. Who first said that?

In 1947, De Beers Consolidated Mines, Ltd., hired the Ayers & Son, advertising agency to create an advertising campaign that would reverse  declining diamond sales worldwide.  Frances Gerety, a copywriter for Ayers & Son, was working late one night to the point of exhaustion. Finally in desperation, she put her head down on the table and pleaded for help. Just before she left work that night she scribbled the words “a diamond is forever” on a piece of paper and the rest is history.

But why is a diamond forever... literally?

The answer lies in the unique chemical structure of a diamond. Everything on the earth is made up of atoms and hardness depends on how closely the atoms are held together. Diamonds have incredibly strong bonds because they are made up of carbon. Being the smallest of the atoms that can be bonded, carbon fits in more tightly together with other atoms, making a hard and compressed substance. And best of all, once these atoms have been compressed at high enough temperatures to make a diamond, they are literally stuck there forever. Therefore, the phrase “diamonds are forever” is more than just a catchy marketing slogan. It’s because diamonds quite literally are, forever.

Forever. That has a nice ring to it. Particularly to us humans that want to leave a part of us behind - for whatever reason - Maybe so our contributions to humanity or the  memory of us won't be lost to the forgetting mists of time.

Famous people - actors, writers, politicians -  have their contributions and deeds written down and recorded in all manner of  documents that will last - not till the end of our sun - but at least to the end our civilization, however long(or short) long that may be.

Nearly all of us want something of ourselves to survive down through the ages, something we generally do by having children, grandchildren, etc. A part of us will survive through them, so long as the chain of progeny - your descendants - remains unbroken.

BUT... one broken link in the chain and it's all over. Whatever uniqueness you and your ancestors gave to humanity is lost, and here's that word again: Forever. C'est la  vie. Or  to put it more accurately, C'est la mort.

So. Perhaps you want  a bit of yourself to survive without being too picky about DNA, downline, descendants, etc. There is now a way to do just that, and even before you kick off.

There now exists a firm called "Lifegem" that can send a piece of you to infinity, maybe even beyond:

http://www.lifegem.com/index.aspx?BType=GTxt&BAg=HCrem&gclid=CNqSyt6fnbUCFUKoPAod2XYAJQ

As they say:

Your very own LifeGem Diamond(s) can be created from the carbon in  your cremation ashes, a lock of your  hair, or both.

You can send them -  right now -  a few strands of your hair, and in return you get a physical object created partially from your own body that will indeed outlast the sun. Or you can request in your will that ashes from your body be used... dealers choice. The advantage of using a few strands of hair while you are still alive guarantees(to you personally) that a piece of you will experience a never-ending journey into the cosmos.

Doesn't matter what happens to your lifegem throughout the rest of human history, it will still be around when the sun novas and gobbles up the solar system. Your little diamond will just be blown away, off on a unimaginable journey through time and space. And if you use a few strands of your hair to create your diamond before you die, you will be able to see and actually touch the little piece of yourself that will still be around when every other trace of humanity is long gone.

That, my friends - to me - is totally cool.
