Daily affirmation of gratitude to the universe.

Daily affirmation.

I am thankful for my immediate and extended family and friends. You have absolutely no idea how much you all mean to me regarding your emotional, spiritual and intellectual support that you enrich my life with.

I am also extremely thankful for all the good times along with the hardships life offers us. For the sweet little things in life to the contrast the hardships give to us by helping us truly realize how sacred the good times can be for us all.

I am ecstatic for all the opportunity this year will afford my wife and I.  In particular the earth centered experiences and the reliability of discovering ancient wisdom of our for-fathers and mothers along with building onto this amazing foundation of sustainable life practices.

Cheers to the brave new world we are creating day by day by planting the seeds of peace, love, respect and light. May you germinate in the fertile soils of the human spirit. 

Some interesting parallels between the recent W VA chemical spill and the ancient military doctrine of salted earth.

Additional Update here. 

Petition the white house to investigate the W Virginia toxic chemical spill.

UPDATE

So apparently per 64 year old Joe Stanley   of W. Virginia we have been dumping the highly toxic chemical  4-methylcyclohexane methanol for decades into tapped out mines and unlined slurry ponds. With that said he states he has not drank local water sources for years.

So my question is regarding the current and very real threat our water works are doing is why the hell did one of Virginia largest water treatment plants was storing a 48,000 gallon tank of 4-methylcyclohexane methanol? 

What in gods name possessed West Virginia American Water  to store this chemical on there property to begin with?

I do not intend at all to sound like one of those batshit aluminum foil hat wearing conspiracy theorists but how can a business or let alone any competent *responsible adult do something this hair brained unless they were planning on eventually allowing the chemical to leach out? 

It all simply sounds way to convenient the last few years of events like nuclear meltdowns, chemical spills and poisoning of our food sources either at the point of agriculture or in the processing plants
(pesticides/processed food "preservatives","food like products") . It all seems like there is a very real threat to our communities from all links of the government industrial complex chain of command.

Haunting photos discovered from early 20th century Antarctic heroic era expidition.

Its a haunting reminder that history will repeat itself. I wonder 100 or so years from now we will discover flash cards from failed mars missions. Might be a cool art project to do something along those lines to build up a fictional historical documentary kinda like the Europa report.

Paranoia

So today a friend of mine showed me a little article about how some F*tard's might be able to get access to ones RSA keys or other sensitive information by simply placing a cell phone next to your computers for about one hour or so.

I guess its kinda building on the whole mid 90s TEMPEST scare regarding EMF radiation. This is purely accoustic in nature.

Hmm.... 


So it kinda reminds me of a few other articles about airgap jumping bios viruses. http://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2013/11/01/the-badbios-virus-that-jumps-airgaps-and-takes-over-your-firmware-whats-the-story/

It makes me wonder if we are starting to get into a time when we will need to have switches to physically and electrically disconnect Mic's and speakers.

With that said we may also need to start migrating to passively cooled embeded applications and start looking at laminating our motherboards with alternating mixtures of non conductive and Pb/Fe impregnated epoxy.

Welcome the kingdom of epoxy glop tops back to our humble geek caves.

    

Al Goldstein yet another porn pioneer Bites the dust at 77

On the jump   Bad ass mother fucker captain of the giant 11 foot middle finger sculpture on his front lawn died 77 years old in eastern hospice after fighting a long medical battle.

Even from his deathbed the rotten bastard rocked the one finger salute. I only hope ill be just as fierce in my end of days as well.

I just totally had to do this.

Why yes sir I am a strange duck.

Laser DIY.

So on this Sunday's fruits of mindless youtube surfing produced a distinct interest in DIY Laser hobby. I've always been interested in highly filtered and condensed beams of photon Danger.

Its all simply a matter of time until someone go's ahead and builds a giant robot with laser eyes of disintegration.

Behold the basement built HeN baking soda laser.
