Laughing my ass off, Tiger Woods Drama.

LOLOLOL.....



LOL, Tiger woods drama is in there somewhere, but I aint sure where.

Alone

She was alone but I was standing there naked in the cold.
Alone in my ferocity, accepting as I was told.
She stood stunning in her own in-grace, steward unto herself,
I stood silently watching her, her world was now resolve.
Sometimes naked and ashamed we were,
sometimes pride with-ought a doubt,
sometimes subtle in the insanity,
Often more, wont make that rhyme.
Effortless she had a child and then another one instead.
Me I'm only father though, no use in her life t's said
One waken of formality would burn it all to shame.
The children gone a fukin slit, law would end her game.
defend though and I fight for her, For her insanity.
Trust God who she pertends to trust but trust law more than that.
Pertends was not a mis-quote, means to me she tends to self.
An island on a narrow strip could not contain the likes of her.

One blessing I pray for is loss of likes and times spent with her.
My children even speak her tone, I guess I lost them too.
my son won't even fix his car, not in five minutes of time,
daughter say's I suck but in her mothers words, not hers

If blessed be a mercy then let mercy now be straight,
Give those fools a taste of honesty and me a bed in ruins...

Conspiracy Theory or Fact? 3 The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin

The owner of Brave New Books discusses the book The Creature from Jekyll Island by G. Edward Griffin.

Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magicians' secrets are unveiled. We get a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, their pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A dry and boring subject? Just wait!

You'll be hooked in five minutes. Reads like a detective story - which it really is. But it's all true. This book is about the most blatant scam of all history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity.

Creature from Jekyll Island is a "must read." Your world view will definitely change. You'll never trust a politician again - or a banker.

The internet has become in a very few years an access point to truths never before shared, known about by common people and an option to learn or choose not to learn about the realities that effect all of our lives.

It has been proven beyond any shadow of doubt that there is no real money left, there is nothing but debt. Why would people who know this still struggle to accumulate this fake version of money bonds? Simple, because they don't want you to have it. Real or fake they still don't want you to have it. As false as it is it still represents a security level and a social standing within a community. That would possibly allow you to gather others with you to oppose social change and offer you respect while attempting to do so.

Why are they even offering to buy your gold fillings from your teeth on television every night? Who do you really think is doing this huge gold round-up effort and why? I know who and I do know why. Our government and/or our governments government The Federal Reserve Bank are behind this and they are getting as much gold, land, businesses as they can so that when you find out what your paper money is really worth you will find out your only real self worth to them.

This same thing was done also in 1933, making it illegal to own your own gold coins "In 1933 President Franklin D. Roosevelt stopped the coinage of gold and made it illegal to own the metal (although coin collectors could retain their pieces). With one exception, no 1933 double eagles were ever legally released, although some were stolen from the government, and over the years several were recovered." <--- from Wiki's site, page [here]. It was said that the intent was to remove from all Americans any real product of financial security except the Federal Reserve note which is in fact not money at all but a measure of debt payment to the Federal Reserve. This is why they want as much of our gold as they can collect and they want it quickly. In exchange they offer you debt notes, worthless in all actuality but for a short time redeemable for purchase of goods. Soon all money transfer will be done electronically and those notes will be destroyed or kept for sentimental value, just like Confederate bills.

How the US mint works in short....
"United States coinage was first minted by the new republic in 1792. New coins have been produced every year since then and they make up a valuable aspect of the United States currency system. Today circulating coins exist in denominations: $0.01, $0.05, $0.10, $0.25, $0.50, and $1.00. Also minted are bullion and commemorative coins. All of these are produced by the United States Mint. The coins are then sold to Federal Reserve Banks which in turn are responsible for putting coins into circulation and withdrawing them as demanded by the country's economy." <--- also from Wiki's page located [here]

FEDERAL RESERVE PRIVATELY OWNED

Through the Federal Reserve Banking System the US is Deceived and Robbed by a Private Banking Cabal in Their Quest for a New World Order.


What is the Federal Reserve, otherwise known as the Fed? It's a privately owned corporation which has control over all of the nation's money. This is a pretty bold statement and completely flies in the face of everything you were taught in school regarding the Fed.

It is, however, the truth. The average person doesn't understand the dangers that lie within our monetary system. It's something upon which all Americans need to be educated before the Fed vultures destroy any semblance of a 'free' society still in existence.

In order to get a complete picture we need to go back to the year 1913. In this year President Woodrow Wilson signed the Federal Reserve Act. Three years prior to this signing, in 1910, a group of devious men had a meeting.

This is when Senator Nelson Aldrich, A. Piatt Andrew, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, and Special Assistant of the National Monetary Commission, Frank Vanderlip, president of the National City Bank of New York, Henry P. Davison, senior partner of J.P. Morgan Company and generally regarded as Morgan's personal emissary, and Charles D. Norton, president of the Morgan-dominated First National Bank of New York, held the infamous Jekyll Island meeting.

    'Picture a party of the nation's greatest bankers stealing out of New York on a private railroad car under cover of darkness, stealthily heading hundreds of miles South, embarking on a mysterious launch, sneaking onto an island deserted by all but a few servants, living there a full week under such rigid secrecy that the names of not one of them was once mentioned lest the servants learn the identity and disclose to the world this strangest, most secret expedition in the history of American finance.'
    - Secrets of the Federal Reserve

It was all done in secrecy because this banking cabal knew it was pulling off an illegal heist of the American people's wealth. It's important to note Woodrow Wilson's realization of what he'd been led to do by the powerful bankers:

    'I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country... Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men.
    We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world - no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.'
    - Woodrow Wilson

THE FED IS A PRIVATE COMPANY

Who makes up this 'small group of dominant men' of whom Woodrow Wilson speaks? Before we answer that question, let's first offer proof that the Fed is indeed a private corporation.

The Fed Bank court ruling of LEWIS vs. UNITED STATES, 680 F.2d 1239 (1982), helps illustrate how Americans have been fooled into believing the Fed is strictly a government entity.

    'Examining the organization and function of the Federal Reserve Banks, and applying the relevant factors, we conclude that the (Fed) Banks are not federal instrumentalities for the purposes of the FTCA, but are independent, privately owned and locally controlled corporations.
    Each Federal Reserve Bank is a separate corporation owned by commercial banks in its region. The stock-holding commercial banks elect two thirds of each Bank's nine member board of directors. The remaining three directors are appointed by the Federal Reserve Board. The (Fed) Board regulates the (Fed) Banks, but direct supervision and control of each Bank is exercised by its board of directors.'

FED OWNERSHIP REVEALED

Let's take a look at how the ownership of this fraudulent central bank reveals powerful families like the Rockefellers and Rothschilds.

  • Rothschild Banks of London and Berlin
  • Lazard Brothers Bank of Paris
  • Israel Moses Sieff Banks of Italy
  • Warburg Bank of Hamburg, Germany and Amsterdam
  • Kuhn Loeb Bank of New York
  • Lehman Brothers Bank of New York
  • Goldman Sachs Bank of New York
  • Chase Manhattan Bank of New York (controlled by the Rockefeller family tree)

SENATOR LOUIS T. MCFADDEN

In the 1930's, a true American patriot, Senator Louis T. McFadden, added additional insight into how private bankers have hijacked America through its monetary system:

    'Mr. Chairman, we have in this Country one of the most corrupt institutions the world has ever known. I refer to the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Banks, hereinafter called the Fed.
    The Fed has cheated the Government of these United States and the people of the United States out of enough money to pay the Nation's debt. The depredations and iniquities of the Fed have cost enough money to pay the National debt several times over.
    This evil institution has impoverished and ruined the people of these United States, has bankrupted itself, and has practically bankrupted our Government.
    Some people think that the Federal Reserve Banks are United States Government institutions. They are private monopolies which prey upon the people of these United States for the benefit of themselves and their foreign customers; foreign and domestic speculators and swindlers; and rich and predatory money lenders.'

For the full transcript of Senator Louis T. McFadden's tirade against the Fed, read our Federal Reserve Fraud article.

CREATING FINANCIAL SLAVES

Taking the ability to create money out of the hands of the government and putting it into the hands of a few private bankers has three negative points: enslaving the public in a whirlwind of taxes, inflation, and debt payments.

The Fed system has forced the American government to borrow all money in existence. The private Fed just prints up Federal Reserve notes and the government gives it bonds in return. Now, the government owes this corrupt central bank the face value of the bonds, plus interest.

This is a system where money is counterfeited (by the Fed) and then a debtor (the American taxpayer) must pay that money back with interest.

This debt is impossible to pay off. If, for example, the government borrows $1 million, how do they pay back the $1 million plus interest when they only have the $1 million to work with? The interest was never created in this system. This means the debt can never be paid back.

Through your taxes, debt, and inflation, you've been turned into a financial slave. Isn't it time all Americans understand the fraud that is the Federal Reserve?

That was taken from [this page], but matters not because there are 1,000's of similar Articles out there for your reading pleasure and they all point in the same direction.

Lemon juice kills AIDS Virus

While on the topic of lemon juice this is an interesting tid of information I came across a few years ago and thought it suitable to post...


Roger Short featured in television science show, "Catalyst" Reviewed / Amended: March 2004 It was to tell his story about LemonAIDS. HIV / AIDS is the Black Death of our times - tens of millions of people are infected or at high risk. And the problem is worst in the developing world where few practice preventive measures. But Australian scientist Roger Short thinks a cheap, easy-to-use solution might be growing right under our noses. It's lemon juice. An ancient douche-style contraceptive that was encouraged by such luminaries as Casanova, lemon juice has dropped out of modern memory. But not only does lemon juice kill sperm, lab tests show it kills the AIDS virus itself. Sceptics from the pharmaceutical world say it will never work. Undeterred, Roger is planning field trials in Thailand. It just might be that the simple lemon is the aid everyone's been searching for. Full Program Transcript Narration: The deadly prophesies of a global AIDS pandemic have become reality. Infection rates in some parts of the world are a staggering 50%. And still we have no cure, no vaccine, and even condoms are too expensive for much of the developing world. But one man is now making an extraordinary claim - that a commonplace, affordable AIDS preventive, may be right under our noses. Professor Roger Short: In almost every country where HIV is a problem, there's a lemon tree with a lemon on it, and if only we could think how to use the lemon we could swat HIV. Narration: Reproductive physiologist Professor Roger Short is the man behind this startling idea. It came after talking to some elderly women about traditional contraceptives - which include lemons placed inside the vagina. Professor Roger Short: When the lecture was over 10 or 15 of these women came up to me one by one, put their hand on my shoulder and said in them days my dear I used half a lemon it was all right for me. Narration: History books reveal a longstanding link between the lemon and lovemaking - even Casanova advocated half a lemon as a cervical cap. But last Christmas, Roger suddenly realised it could do much more. Professor Roger Short: It was like a bolt from the blue, it sort of hit me on the side of the face and it was right there, I thought, my golly lemon juice that would kill HIV. Narration: Roger's flash of inspiration was that acids were already known to kill HIV, and lemon juice was acidic. Had he found a combined contraceptive and HIV blocker? If so, it would be incredibly easy to use. Professor Roger Short Professor Roger Short: So let's just take a slice off the end of this lemon and we'll just squeeze a bit of the juice out of it. And there you've got contraception Casanova style? And that was Casanova's cervical cap and indeed it led to the development of the cervical cap and let's just squeeze the rest of this lemon out and see how much juice we get. There we go. So 1cc is all you need. Jonica Newby: That's hardly anything. I'm amazed. And how would you then administer that into the vagina? Professor Roger Short: Well probably the simplest thing is to take just a little bit of cottonwool and just soak it up and that can be put in the vagina. Jonica Newby: Wouldn't it hurt? I mean it's lemon juice. Professor Roger Short: Well all I can say is that I've tried it. I've poured neat lemon juice all over my penis thinking oh it's going to hurt, it's going to hurt, it's going to hurt. I didn't feel a thing. Most importantly, it's cheap enough to be used in the developing world. Narration: That's what interested Dr Rob Moodie, Head of Victorian Health, and a former director of UNAIDS in Africa. Dr Robert Moodie: I mean, if it's true it's an amazing story because we've been looking for the last 15 years for a viricide or microbicide that's effective, that's safe, that's acceptable, that's easy to use, that can be controlled by women. Narration: That's potentially revolutionary in Africa, where the number one AIDS risk factor for women is being married. Dr Robert Moodie: It's very hard to talk about sex. It's hard to negotiate the use of condoms. So something that woman can use in many cases without their husbands knowing means that they can be protected. Narration: Still, the theory required scientific proof. Nine months ago, research began. Step one: to see what lemon juice does to sperm. Dr Rob Moodie -VicHealth Dr Rob Moodie -VicHealth Professor Roger Short: Well this is the acid test. Here's some fresh human sperm and some fresh lemon juice. Narration: Under the microscope, one sperm heads straight for the lemon juice. Within a few seconds, it's paralysed. Jonica Newby: Gosh, they're hardly moving at all. It's so quick! Narration: Next step - the big one. Does it kill the AIDS virus? Jonica Newby: So this is live HIV? Professor Roger Short: Yes. This is one of the strains of virus that infects T cells very efficiently. Narration: In goes a solution of 10% lemon juice. To Roger's relief, the virus has been reduced 1000 percent. Professor Roger Short: Even if we halved HIV we could strike an enormous blow for the pandemic. If we could knock it by a thousandfold, we've really hit it on the head. Narration: But some experts are sceptical about Roger Short's quick fix. Dr John Raff is CEO of Starpharma, one of 60 companies that have spent the last decade developing vaginal HIV blockers. And he thinks lemon juice could do more harm than good. Dr John Raff: Lemon juice is very acidic, it's 2 - 3, which is not far off battery acid. I'm not saying that lemon juice is the same as battery acid but the same sort of thinking comes into it. If lemon juice damages the vagina, it could be disastrous, like another hoped for AIDS preventive - nonoxynol-9. A clinical trial recently showed that increased the incidence of AIDS in prostitutes by over 50%, which is a very dramatic result. And in that situation, the irritation and breaking down of the natural barriers in the lining of the vagina was encouraging AIDS uptake. Narration: Roger Short acknowledges the risk, and is now planning safety tests. But in the face of the AIDS pandemic, he's adamant we don't have time for the slow process of standard phase one, two and three medical trials. Professor Roger Short: The information that here is a new possibility has to got to be given to developing countries so that they can actually try it. We can't afford to wait with 16,000 new infections a day and we sit here and think about Western ethics. We're fiddling whilst Rome burns. Narration: So Roger Short has gone straight to one of the world's AIDS hotspots: Thailand. Last month, he began a media blitz at the invitation of a Thai senator. They're hoping to begin acceptability trials here - aware that in the centres of the AIDS crisis, solutions don't have to be perfect. Dr Robert Moodie: Well, I mean if you have something that's 60% effective, but it's used by half the women in Africa then it's going to save literally millions of lives over the next ten years. And unlike the high-tech products being developed by StarPharma and others, this one can't be patented. Professor Roger Short: Our compound is free to anyone in a developing country who chooses to grow it. Whatever compounds they come up with will be tied up in patents as they already are, which will be owned by Western pharmaceutical companies. Narration: And pharmaceuticals will cost at least one or two dollars US per use. When half the world lives on less than two dollars US per day, a few cents for a lemon looks far more attractive. Jonica Newby: Finally, what if the lemon juice doesn't work? Professor Roger Short: I don't believe that's even an option. It will work because in vitro it works, it kills the virus, it kills the sperm, and I'm a great believer in history and people wouldn't have used it for three, four hundred years if it didn't work.

Great depression cooking with Clara.

You gotta love this fine woman. She's 93 years old and so very caring about eating healthy on next to nothing if needed to.
She shares her experiences with you with a great amount of concern.

You should check out & join her YouTube page at GreatDepressionCooking because the economy today as it is we just might need her advice.

This one is called "Poor mans feast".



NOTE: Following are the notes from original page post. Please read them.
IMPORTANT:

There have been a few requests concerning this video. The first is to notify people that when preparing lentils to check for stones. There should be a warning about this on the packaging of your lentils and please follow their instructions.

The second item is a question about why Clara reuses the lemon from the marinade. It has long been known that citric acid (in this case a lemon) is nature's anti-bacterial agent. Today it is more commonly known as produce wash or FIT (Fruit and Vegetable Wash). There are many studies out today that consider FIT a more successful anti-bacterial agent than chlorine dioxide (which is produced chemically rather than naturally). Many cultures continue to use the citric acid from lemons and limes to cleanse meat and fish as this marinade does.

Clara cooks quite responsibly and always uses the freshest meats and fish when preparing her meals. You must always cook any meal at any time at your own risk. Clara is only providing you with lessons she has learned and she has lived to a ripe old age. If you are nervous about her tips then just enjoy the videos for the historical value.

If you are curious about the science behind citric acid you can find many articles online as well as this one here:

Stone Sour - Wicked Game

Mediocre cover, what sells it to me is the color scheme. It's cold and pure...

"Live by the sword"

Live by the sword is one of the most designing and vague terms I have ever heard. Some people interpret as "Live violently, expect to die violently". It was stated that way intentionally. It is vague but appearing to be to short and to the point. Why? Because lazy, weak minded people are only worth short simplistic statements that they can cling onto and call wisdom. But the sword is just a metaphor "live by the sword and die by the sword" Has a much deeper meaning.

The sword is not a weapon or a sword. The sword is the representation of your standards in life. This changes the meaning to "live by your standards and you will surely die by them". Some standards are greed, pride, dishonor, honor, respect and disrespect, honesty and lie. Countless more examples but the "word" is your weapon in dealing with life. Love itself is a weapon, so "live by love and you will surely die loved"

I love the teachings of the Bible because of that example among many others. In that phrase you are given many options ranging from using words without thinking about them or not caring about the real meanings of them to reading and trying to learn from them and see inside your heart what they are really trying to imply.

Yes, the Bible was written for idiots, selfish, lazy and those with real interest alike. Those phrases often mean much more than the simple remarks put down in books that anyone can read.

Closing note: We all live and die by the sword, Our lives and convictions are the sword but no matter because we each carry our own sword and with that we decide our own fate.

Blessings,,,

Across the universe, it's a musical and a movie.


"Across the Universe is a love story and musical with creative interpretations of Beatles classics. Critics looker for deeper meaning seem to forget this simple fact. Incredible cameos by Joe Cocker, Bono, and an earth-shattering Gospel version of 'Let it Be', are all in themselves reason enough to see the film. I was lucky enough to see this recently at the historic Elgin theater in Toronto. Julie Taymor is one of the most eloquent directors I've heard to date. Not only has this film advanced the art of film-based musicals, it will most certainly get the Oscar nod and introduce a legion of new young fans to the Beatles. I for one can't wait to see and experience it again!"<--- from IMDB's page, located [here]

I have wanted to post this for two years but I got it in avi format at about 2.5Gigs in size. Because of size limitations I would have needed to break it into 25 or 26 parts in very short segments.

Tonight I remembered Format Factory, it's a free program for anyone to use. Using that I broke it down into several segments and converted it to flv to share with you. Even better than that is you can get Format Factory and convert it back into avi or mpg as one full flick and even better is I upped the sound quality from 96 kbs to 192 bit for better bass response and higher treble quality. I also increased the viewable frame rate from 4fbs to 18, this means less skipped frames in the viewing process.

The bad news again is I had to convert it to flv to reduce the file size so that I can post it.

I know you'll love the film and I recommend you download Format Factory for free from [here], combine the parts and burn a nice DVD from it.

Below is the film in parts, below that also are the download links and the soundtrack which I also extracted from Format Factory to share with you.

Vodka tips & tricks...

From different sources, so separators will be added to keep things in order.

Health Tip of the Day - Who knew?!!!!


1. To remove a bandage painlessly, saturate the bandage with vodka. The stuff dissolves adhesive.

2. To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mould and mildew.

3. To clean your eyeglasses,simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.

4. Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your safety razor blade soak in the alcohol after shaving. The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.

5. Spray vodka on wine stains, scrub with a brush, and then blot dry.

6. Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.

7. Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo. The alcohol cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair, and stimulates the growth of healthy hair.

8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle with vodka and spray bees or wasps to kill them.

9 Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water into a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze for a slushy, refreshing ice pack for aches, pain or black eyes.

10. Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar with freshly packed lavender flowers, fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly and set in the sun for three days. Strain liquid through a coffee filter, then apply the tincture to aches and pains.

11. To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment.

12. To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.

13 Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.

14. Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin.

15. Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain.

Uses for Vodka.

Ah, vodka - so many memories, or more accurately, lack thereof.

While I haven't taken a sip of the stuff in nearly 15 years, I can still appreciate what a marvelous substance it can be if consumed responsibly; something I was never able to do.

Vodka is made from either grain, rye, wheat, potatoes or sugar beet molasses as the primary ingredients combined with yeast in order to generate alcohol. After distillation, the product is almost pure ethyl alcohol and is watered down before bottling, after which it usually has an alcohol content of between 35 - 50%

Aside from drinking, vodka has many other uses, some that can replace environmentally harsh chemicals we use around the home.

Given the lack of ingredients in unflavored vodka, it can be used as a substitute for many cleaners with an alcohol, caustic or solvent base, without leaving the item smelling like liquor.

Of course, good vodka isn't cheap; so many of the the following ideas I found around the place are based on the assumption you have lost the taste for the stuff; or if you find yourself in a spot of bother and don't have anything else to use... or if you have a good supply of dirt cheap vodka :).

Remember to always spot test before going all out with any of these suggested uses.

- To increase the life of cut flowers, add a few drops of vodka vase water along with 1 teaspoon sugar.

- Use it undiluted to remove ink stains from fabric (dab, don't rub).

- Use undiluted vodka to remove paint from clothes.

- Vodka sprayed on areas where cats have peed or sprayed will remove the odor.

- A healthy splash of vodka in old water storage containers will help kill bacteria.

- Spray vodka on clothes to remove lingering odors

- Use vodka as a tile grout cleaner and to kill mold and mildew. Spray affected areas with undiluted vodka, let sit for a few minutes and then wipe off.

- A few drops of vodka will clean jewelery.

- Vodka can be used as a glass cleaner. Dilution recommendations vary, 25 - 50% vodka and the balance being water seems to be the general guideline. Use in a spray bottle.

- Use it to make vanilla extract. Place 4 vanilla pods in a jar and add a cup of vodka. Use an airtight lid and then place in a cool dark spot. Shake the jar occasionally and after two months you'll have vanilla extract. Top up with vodka as you use it and only add more vanilla pods when it starts to lose potency.

- Spray onto old pot potpourri to revitalize the scent.

- Use vodka it to remove hair dye from your skin.

- Vodka can help to remove tree sap from car paintwork.

- Add 1 part vodka to two parts water in a heavy duty zip lock bag and tape down the top. Freeze and use as a cold pack.

- Use undiluted as a weed killer spray.

- Spray undiluted into your washing machine to neutralize od

There are many-many, but these are my favorite few.

I'm a painter and carpenter. Vodka will remove stickers kids put on walls and woodwork without damaging the color of the wood finish..

Great for over spray on glass for spray jobs. Just dampen a rag and wipe away gently.

It removes tree sap gently from saw blades, chisels and your hands, but you neeed to do it quick bfore it burns itself onto the saw blade. If not it the blade can burn an expensive finish cut and ruin some part of your project.

A light mixture of vodka mixed with water in a spray bottle sprayed on your arms and exposed repels mosquitoes and most insects. It also works to spray lightly around the work area or yard for gatherings.

Mixed 50/50 with water cleans glass great, even windshield bugs off when driving.

Makes an old TV or stereo look like brand new after sitting unused for a period of time. Just dampen a rag and wipe gently over the surface.

Wet a rag with it and lay it on a piece of furniture, then move it and scrape off most of the old urethane or varnish with a plastic scraper, move it again and do the same until the whole piece is close to striped. Saves money on time, sandpaper and leaves color undamaged.

Denatured alcohol is about $22 a gallon and poisonous, vodka you can get for $15 and it's eco-friendly. Denatured damages the grain though, vodka doesn't.

Hidden system information & more.

When you go to a site this is only a portion it describes what operation system you are using tells about about you, what type of C.P.U. you are using, what brand peripherals, your directory tree, and what looks like.

That would be how many hard drives you are running and how full or empty they are. Beyond that of the information supplied to the webmaster about you and your computer. Amongst this included is your home address which can be easily be traced by anyone using Google maps [see here and sign up for a free log on name to access], the page that you came to the site and the page you left the site to go to on to exit from.


I tell you this because if you think you can just browse illegal content again then forget it. News has just been released that most if not all hackers work with the government to help track you rather than face prosecution. They freely trade these logs with law enforcement because numbers are the key. If one guy can net 5,000 arrests, that one guy walks and the others pay the price.

Trick is don't break the laws...

Top South Carolina's prosecutor, others probing health care deal

COLUMBIA, S.C. – The top prosecutors in seven states are probing the constitutionality of a political deal that cut a funding break for Nebraska in order to pass a federal health care reform bill, South Carolina's attorney general said Tuesday.

Attorney General Henry McMaster said he and his counterparts in Alabama, Colorado, Michigan, North Dakota, Texas and Washington state — all Republicans — are jointly taking a look at the deal they've dubbed the "Nebraska compromise."

"The Nebraska compromise, which permanently exempts Nebraska from paying Medicaid costs that Texas and all other 49 states must pay, may violate the United States Constitution — as well as other provisions of federal law," Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said.

McMaster's move comes at the request of Republican U.S. Sens. Lindsey Graham and Jim DeMint of South Carolina.

In a letter to McMaster, Graham singled out the deal to win Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson's vote on the massive health care bill the Senate is expected to adopt Thursday. Nelson held out as fellow Democrats worked to get 60 votes to foreclose a GOP filibuster and the bill was amended to shield Nebraska from the expected $45 million annual cost tied to expanding Medicaid programs.

"We have serious concerns about the constitutionality of this Nebraska compromise as it results in special treatment for only one state in the nation at the expense of the other 49," Graham and DeMint wrote.

Nebraska wasn't alone in getting Medicaid breaks. Vermont, Louisiana and Massachusetts also got help with their programs.

Along with Texas, officials in Washington, Alabama, Colorado and Michigan confirmed they were working with McMaster.

North Dakota Attorney General Wayne Stenehjem said he wasn't sure what could be done while the federal legislation remained under debate. Officials in the other states did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

Meanwhile on Tuesday, Tennessee's Republican Senate Speaker Ron Ramsey called for his state's attorney general to investigate the deal.

Ramsey, McMaster and Michigan's Mike Cox are running for governor in their states.

"Whether in the court of law or in the court of public opinion, we must bring an end to this culture of corruption," McMaster said. The negotiations "on their face appear to be a form of vote buying paid for by taxpayers," he said.

McMaster is encouraging a South Carolina citizen to step forward to sue to challenge the measure if it is signed into law. "We'll assist anyone to the extent that we're able," McMaster said.

Also Tuesday, U.S. House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn, D-S.C., said Republicans need to stop complaining about deals their colleagues made.

"Rather than sitting here and carping about what Nelson got for Nebraska, I would say to my friends on the other side of the aisle: Let's get together and see what we can get for South Carolina," Clyburn said.

For instance, Clyburn expects states will get more help covering Medicaid expansion costs. Critics say the federal government's coverage of 91 percent of those future costs will disappear, leaving states with huge holes in their budgets. Clyburn says the legislation the federal share should be 95 percent, with states picking up no more than 5 percent.

South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford said the federal legislation is "well intended," but called it "fundamentally flawed in the same way the stimulus efforts were in that the states and the taxpayers are left footing the bill."

Sanford this spring was the nation's only governor to take a state legislature to federal and state court to block federal stimulus money.
