Our Beaches are our National Treasure

I feel so very sad for my countrymen, of whose pride and joy is met with such devastation... They are absolutely heart-broken...

In all such circumstances, this is one by which we shall over-come...

In a Journal reference from newscientist:
Oil and water mix and un-mix on demand #
I'm reading here of the use of the current to direct the long streaks toward a series of filters and surfactant used to to bind oil, which can be transported more easily through a pipeline... And then re-separate the slick, filtered atop the water into large tankers... (Cont.)



(Cont.)
In the post clean-up...
The filtered molecules become long-chain alkyl amidines, consisting of a long, stringy alkyl chain of hydrocarbons that bind to oils... At the other end of the alkyl chain is an amidine group which also binds to oils...

On exposure to carbon dioxide, the amidine end changes into a bicarbonate salt, which is hydrophilic and binds to water. This makes the long molecule into a functioning surfactant that binds oil and water.

Many have questioned about the over-all safety of so many drilling in this tourist/sanctuary backyard; who may not (perhaps) have the sort of massive environmental clean-up groups so readily available, with which to respond.

And whether or not this potential 'unpreparedness' does place compromise against natural parks full of waterfowl and rare wildlife... Not to mention the chance of imperil to these state's fisheries industry, which produces a significant portion of US seafood... Personally, I can see several ways at which the US is not safer in this world, as she might have been before...

We have to believe that the best days are ahead of us...

Militants fill vaccum placed by decades of Government's "cross-border agenda"

-Posted by D.C. Worth, for Barbay (France & US)

Hispanic citizens are indeed, a great part of U.S. Society...
Media "baits" and then portrays divided societies; thus tossing blame upon people... But everyone knows that Government(s) are still the problem.

U.S. Citizens and Mexico's Citizens are in danger; but if you will notice, this does not really make the Government's #1 priority list... As U.S. & Mexican GOV, Bank Lobbyists, & associates, aided by MSM propaganda; reach for civil rights, to shame, defer solution; thus funding & favors resume.


The answer is obviously to Screen EVERYONE, equally...
But these are logical solutions, except to Governments avoiding nuance of Militants... Instead, Cartels reportedly use personal "enforcer gangs" to perpetuate violence, & intimidate Mexican citizens, & American U.S.

A weaponry expert recognizes Mexican Militant's various (non-US) arms possessions; from the most unusual places... But this remains of little interest to either Government... As Mexico seeks to vilify the U.S; and the U.S. seeks its agenda to strip '2nd amendment' rights of U.S. citizens...

Examples of Government Agenda:
Today, Arizona has become the second Highest Kidnapping Rate in the World... Second only to Mexico... Yet, Obama, Home Land Security, and U.S. Attorney General, threaten to challenge Arizona's identity screening laws; while failing refusing to offer FED security to this State!
[Bank Lobbyists/Votes/ gun control]

Mexico's Government calls drug violence a threat to the Mexican state; but condemns its neighbors (Arizona) for implementing a screened entry into the U.S; calling it a violation of Human Rights...
[Keeping Bank routes clear for Citizens & Cartels]

So, as you can see... This has nothing to do with Race, but populations designed to serve a certain purpose... Though, when you are talking about who needs to be protected, I hope you will see that bureaucrat's jobs and Agenda mean NOTHING compared to the safety and lives of -ALL- citizens...
**IMPEACH: Dereliction of duty! Bring in troops to end violence... Delegate YOUNG, NEW, Leaders for Both Mexico and U.S! Use equal land -in between- for industry, to keep families together; and peace for all... END THIS, NOW!

Explosive allegations in a motion filed by attorneys; while US-left Media sleeps..

Blago’s attorneys have been trying to get copies of the FBI/Obama interview tapes; but have been denied access so far...

Seen here, in a public press statement on the Blago arrest (& now case) in a style later known as: 'Diversion, platitudes, & more diversions.' (et Al)
-Note end of tape, at U.S. press briefing:

-Statement at 3:12:
"Hold on a second, I’ll.... I’ll just answer this one question… Uh.. I HAD no contact with the Governor Uh.. or his office.. Uh and so we were not, uh.. I was not aware… of Uh.. what was happening… And as I said, Uh.. It’s a sad day for Illinois, uh.. Beyond that, I don’t think it’s appropriate to comment.. OK."

Blago, the union connection, and phone records contradict Obama’s statement here... News articles were scrubbed from the web, fortunately some freepers have archived the images...

For over 234 years, U.S. Citizens cast their votes for Representatives; of whose seats belong to the people... But today, I'm afraid for my county that Obama back-room deals, have become back-slaps; as legitimate concerns of citizens are met with intentionally liquidated jobs...

Scientists Explore Holofractal Universe

Our world may be a giant hologram
New Scientist - January 15, 2009
"Our everyday experience might itself be a holographic projection of physical processes that take place on a distant, 2D surface. No one knows what it would mean for us if we really do live in a hologram, yet theorists have good reasons to believe that many aspects of the holographic principle are true." more.

US Geological Survey illustration:
In an explosive volcanic eruption, gas-charged magma abruptly depressurizes as it nears the Earth's surface, violently exploding out of a constrained vent.
[Enlarge]


The ejected magma quickly cools in the air, fragmenting into glassy shards and sharp-edged bits of minerals... Erupted material—along with sulfur dioxide and other gases released from the decompressing magma—is entrained upward in a convecting, columnar mass.

Eruption columns rise quickly from their source vents at velocities of 15 to 600 ft/sec and can be energetic enough to reach cruise altitudes of jet aircraft and beyond, to 150,000 ft...

Moreover, the melting temperature of the glassy silicate rock material that comprises an ash cloud is lower than the operating temperatures of modern jet engines; consequently, ingested ash particles can melt and then accumulate as re-solidified deposits in the engine.. More.

This is how the liberal corporatist game works...
Regulations, mandates, subsidies and the like are all done in the name of the public welfare, but behind the scenes it is often political capitalists, as opposed to market capitalists, who seek to increase or maintain their market share by way of the new "public-spirited legislation."

This liberal-corporatist structure was primarily erected in the Progressive and New Deal eras... A great many of the federal regulatory bodies were initially agitated for by big businesses. It is the small to mid-sized companies who should fear the regulators the most, or those who have yet to enter a market.

Former leaders in the heavily-regulated industries usually hold the highest positions in these regulatory bodies. They have been captured regulatory bodies from the start. They try to restrict competition, and make the start-up costs for entering certain sectors prohibitively high...

All of this corporatism is always couched in high-minded arguments for the environment, safety, consumer protection, the public weal, etc. The political capitalists understand mass psychology all too well. -(J. Peeler)
