The 'Twilight' Zone

We know. You hate "Twilight." You don't want to hear anything more about "Twilight." That's why this is not another story about the "Twilight" or "New Moon" mania, nor will it rhapsodize on the vampire craze, nor does it contain an interview with Robert Pattinson. This is a story about shame. All across the country, there were women who managed to avoid Stephenie Meyer's series about a star-crossed human/vampire teen couple. (Vampire Edward lusts for mortal Bella, but also for her blood; the b… Continue

Honda Please advertise your GX

Why doesn't Honda advertise their beautiful Natural gas car the GX? I have two of them and a home filler.

They continue to advertise all the gasoline drinkers, and the same old stuff, or the 'pie in the sky' future stuff like hydrogen cars that there is no way to fill now. We must use the best things that we have now. Get the gasoline drinkers off t… Continue

The Happy Tips

Happiness is difficult to define and even harder to measure. We experience it as a combination of elements, in the same way that one wheel or spring inside a watch doesn't keep time - it is a result of the synchronicity of the whole. As a relative state, happiness is what psychologists call our subjective well-being and, fortunately for us, it is a state that we can actively change for the better. Here are 20 ways to start.

Everyone longs for happiness, but few possess it. The pursuit… Continue

Renewable energies are not just America's dream…

One thing I am certain of is that America, the west and other "civil" people have wonderful ideas that know no border. For this reason I believe with a high degree of certainty that America is behind in innovative thought implementation. Perhaps we will lose the greatest race of the 21st century to be free of the trappings of globally destructive practices. However, there is a glimmer of hope that a moon shot toward sustainable living via wind, solar, tide and yes, coal could save our sovereignt… Continue

Satellite Solar Power Station ("SSPS") Revisited---by the Japanese This Time Around

Hundreds of private e-mails and documents hacked from a computer server at a British university are causing a stir among global warming skeptics, who say they show that climate scientists conspired to overstate the case for a human influence on climate change.

The domestic solution

Nat. Gas is at best an interim strategy with its own greenhouse gas sins. We need to be looking at an abundant present source to derive our petroleum substitutes from , it is called livestock manure if we incentivize the production of methane ( natural gas ) we can substantially decrease the cost of production of ethanol as the natural gas used in the refinement phase of ethanol production is the major factor holding the price of ethanol high enough to discourage expanded or increased usage.
