Remember this?
I see the fight to close coal fired electric is starting to poke it's head into conversations again. We are having local commercials against coal electricity on all the local stations.
We get most of our electricity from the Hoover/Boulder dam, however when LA needs extra, the grid managers shuffles suppliers around, and we get a bunch from a coal fired plant 40/50 miles NE of Vegas on highway 15, out in the middle of nowhere.
If they (who are they?) are successful in shutting that power plant down electricity around here would get pretty spendy.

Yesterday's Fit
Well all in all things went well!! The material is extremely hard, so very hard to be comfortable.
.JPG)
Then a couple fittings later... Heat it, bend it, cut some off, grind a little here, grind a little there, and poof it felt pretty good. I was trampsing around quite well.
So in a week or so we will have a fitting with the real material. I may walk out of there with a new upper socket. I didn't like the valve that was in that one I will see if I can get the kind I have on this socket. Also we will move the valve down and to the left a tad.
Subie sent me a picture of the patch that she will put on the stiff part of the socket. Probably centered a 1/3 of the way from the bottom.
I am sure she will make it look good...
All in all it was good and I am ready for the new one.

Now Here is a Responsible Individule
A jumbo jet being chased by a F-16 fighter jets buzzed Lower Manhattan this morning, panicking New Yorkers, many of whom were forced to evacuate their office buildings. …
The planes flew over the Verrazano Bridge, buzzed the left ear Lady Liberty and then continued up the Hudson past Jersey City and then circling back toward Staten Island, federal sources told the Post.
Thousands flooded the streets downtown as buildings called evacuations.
"There is situation outside. We don't have any further information," went one announcement at the Embassy Suites downtown.

Monday's Thought
Today I have another fit for my new upper.
.JPG)
The semi-clear plastic part in this view is kind of what I am trying on today. It is a little different product and will become the mold from witch they build my new upper final product.
You would be surprised (I think you would anyway) to know that the weight bearing area is actually very, very small area. You can see the yellow discolored area of the inner piece. Well the weight bearing area is from the yellow spot to about and inch and 1/2 to the left of the yellow area. Centered just above the rivet in the flesh colored piece.
Today Subie will have the clear part with a vacuum plug in it. Then we can see if we can develop a good vacuum, and fits properly. Also it will either have a peg leg like the old Pirate with a little foot but no knee, or an attachment piece that hooks up to my knee. At any rate the objective is to get weight on it, to check and adjust the weight bearing area is right and not painful. Then check the vacuum with weight and movement.
.JPG)
Now of course I will throw in a little glitch. I won't bore you will pictures LOL (Too much info). I got a damn pimple right in the middle of the weight bearing area. I call it a pimple for lack of a better word. It is bigger and meaner than the run of the mill pimple.
Anyway, any sore inside the socket area,requires immediate proper care. I have been extremely lucky I have not had any kind of rash, sore, pimple, ingrown hair, or any other kind of abrasions that plague the above knee amputees, in the last 18-20 Months. Why now that I am fitting for a new socket?
Plain ole` luck I recon.
I will try to get some pictures this afternoon, and add any updates to my situation.
In the mean time ...
Occupy some time here LOL
Off to see Subie

This is what Green has Done for You "2" another draft Ooppps
U.S.Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World!
Stansberry Report Online - 4/20/2006 Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction.
They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:
-8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
-18-times as much oil a s Iraq
-21-times as much oil as Kuwait
-22-times as much oil as Iran
-500-times as much oil as Yemen- and it's a ll right here in the
Western United States .
HOW can this BE?
HOW can we NOT BE extracting this!?
Because the democrats, environmentalists and left wing republicans have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil.
James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we've got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels. Untapped. That's more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.
----
Don't think 'OPEC' will drop its price - even with this find? Think again! It's all about the competitive marketplace, - it has to.
----
[Got your attention/ire up yet? Hope so! Now, while you're thinking about it ... and hopefully P.O'd, do this:
3. Pass this along.. If you don't take a little time to do this, then you should stifle yourself the next time you want to complain about gas prices .. because by doing NOTHING, you've forfeited your right to complain
The Greenies have blocked all EXTRACTION !! I posted a couple weeks ago when President Obama signed the bill to take all of that land off the Drill table.
Hell they won't be happy till we are all back in a cave.
Prime Example 2, LOL Oopppps
Mainstream Media doesn't want you to see this...
Why?
Anti CNN ???
Wow I thought I posted this, Thursday or Friday.
If this is the way that the Main Stream Media covered the April 15 Tax Day Tea Parties,
then you have to ask yourself "Why".
How far are they willing to go?
I thought I posted this the other day, it was saved as a "Draft"

I am gonna Out Source Today
Hope you don't mind
I'll just go out a create some Mischief.
"The budget should be balanced, the Treasury
should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of
officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to
foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People
must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance."
Cicero - 55 BC
Enjoy .... Pooooooooooooooooooof

In Good Company
As I explained a few days ago
Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano portrayed veterans as victims
– not perpetrators – LOL not what her report said...
of right-wing extremism as she sought to combat the political controversy arising out of an April 14 Homeland Security memo warning that returning soldiers could be ripe for domestic terrorism participation.
“The report is not saying that veterans are extremists. Far from it,” Napolitano said on CNN’s State of the Union. “What it is saying is returning veterans are targets of right-wing extremist groups that are trying to recruit those to commit violent acts within the country. We want to do all we can to prevent that.”
I guess that puts me in pretty good Company.
Now that I am an Enemy of the State. I saw in the paper yesterday that the FBI went to all the TEA Parties in America and covertly filmed them. I guess I am in their files now too. LOL

New Upper
Went for the fitting of the "test" / clear upper yesterday afternoon. This is the part that holds me to the prosthetic. It is accomplish by creating a vacuum. You will be able to see the hole where the vacuum plug will be placed.
Here it is in a couple of views.
.JPG)
.JPG)
Then I used the normal procedure, with the parachute like bag, to put my residual limb into the prosthetic.
Here is the front view. I will do better with the camera next week, we were in a hurry for some damn reason. You can see where the vacuum plug will go. Here I am holding it on with my hand. When I put it on a chair and put any weight on it I was coming out the hole for the plug.
.JPG)
This is the view from behind. On the bottom of the residual limb you can see a small void. That always seems where the air pockets sneak in on the upper I have now. Sometimes I can not get the air to move around to the vent so I have to take the prosthetic off to get it adjusted. That is one of the reasons we are making the new one.

Wait till You see Our Solution
Move Over, Berni Madoff
I have been whining for the past couple weeks about the "Government" having all the "Solutions"
Well go read this... Obama's Ponzi Scheme There is no way that I could have written this as well as he did.
Enjoy...
Well, Bernie, a sixty-five billion dollar scam, eh? Sorry, Pal, you’ve been one-upped! Our new president has devised the mother of all Ponzi scams! Compared to him, you’re bush-league. He’s conducting a scam in the trillions of dollars. Not only is he doing it with adoring masses, abetted by his congressional accomplices - he’s made it legal!
When Charles Ponzi brought it to America, who would have thought it would eventually become refined to the level achieved by our President? How has he, perhaps unwittingly, disguised its components? The parts are all there: investment, promise, bait-and-switch, deceit, misappropriation, and return crumbs.

Last Sunday Thought
8 Minutes watch it all.
Where are we going?
Is this the training ground for the jackbooted brown shirts?
The irony is that the Border Patrol Agents will not do anything to the ILLEGALS coming in. Instead they harass American citizens and assault them.

Clean Air Cases Global Warming
>
“You can’t defeat an ignorant person in an argument.”
The green/Eco-nuts of the world,who say they are so concerned with the earth,
constantly attempt to repeal the laws of nature.
However nature not being subject to the whims of the mentally deranged of course pays no attention and just follows the same course its followed for millions of years.
NASA says clean air regulations are the main cause of global warming
It's official: Congressional and EPA clean air regulations have warmed the Arctic and other regions. See above:
A new NASA study informs us that clean air regulations have prevented sulfates (from coal and oil) from entering the atmosphere, and sulfates have a net cooling effect. The sulfates offset the effect of black carbon (from diesel and biofuel.)

Well I'll be Damned...
Ops today is Sunday ...
I did get a pic of Subie's Shadow...

Getting ready to go...
Thanks for the help Subie!
Pap
My New Prosthestist
My new prosthetist is a Biker Gal.
Subie say it like Sue Bee.
.JPG)
What the hell is a Prosthetist? Well she is the gal building my new leg!
She also, in the very near future, will get me sent to San Diego to to be evaluated to receive a bionic leg.
I will try to get photos as it is built that might be interesting.
Anyway ....Here she is in my garage ready to get started.
She road over on a Honda Shadow. I failed to get a picture.
Hell of a photo journalist Ha?
Yesterday Morning she came over to help me do my Monthly maintenance check ups. Check all the oil levels, change the gas out, check air in tires and so on.
At least one time every other month I like my bike to run around the block so the shifter is operated, oil gets flung all around in the primary case.
.JPG)
The main Transmission gets oil on all of it's parts. Clutch and brakes get exercised, and so on. The tires stay round no flat spots from sitting on 1 spot low air for long periods.
.JPG)
Anyway after several checks and rechecks My little baby started in about 2 seconds of the first button push I was pretty proud of her.
So after a couple start ups and gas leak repairs. I guess taking the gas line off and pulling on it to get it into a bottle to catch the bad gas weakens all the other attachment points. LOL
At any rate she fired right up every button push ;>) I was happy with that!
Subie jumped on her and ran her around the block a couple times.
Then Subie suited up and headed out to get her on the road and really exercise all the systems. She had a nice little ride on my hot rod and all of her (my hot rod) systems functioned well.
.JPG)
WHEW!!!! She made it back with no maintenance problems
Subie said the rear brake seemed not just right so I will keep that in mind, in any future use. I will clean the pads and rotor before next use. The pads are new maybe 2 or 3 hundred miles. Same with the front brakes and both front and rear tires. She also said the clutch was quite hard. Well the clutch is a hydrolic system so that indicates that the system needs to be purged. I will do that on the next maintenance check up. A pain in the ass but that is what I get for letting it sit around so much.
Keep ya updated.

Giving Your Enemies Weapons WTF?
Holy Cow?!!!?!?!?!
White House senior adviser David Axelrod says President Barack Obama spent about a month pondering whether to release Bush-era memos about CIA interrogation techniques, and considered it “a weighty decision.”
Read it here
“He thought very long and hard about it, consulted widely, because there were two principles at stake,” Axelrod said . “One is … the sanctity of covert operations … and keeping faith with the people who do them, and the impact on national security, on the one hand. And the other was the law and his belief in transparency.”
...This is totally unnecessary. … Publicizing the techniques does grave damage to our national security by ensuring they can never be used again — even in a ticking-time- bomb scenario where thousands or even millions of American lives are at stake."
I don't believe Obama would intentionally endanger the nation. So why then did he?
It must be that he thinks either the previous administration, including the CIA professionals who have defended this program, is lying about its importance and effectiveness.
Or he believes we are no longer really at war and no longer face the kind of grave threat to our national security this program has protected against.

Tax Day Tea Party
Wow this is a nice one if you like Country Music...
Hers we see how Nancy Pelosi sees it.... LOL
You certainly have no problems knowing who this young lady voted for...
May as well not send her out to cover anything you would actually like to understand or know what is really going on or happening.
I don't mind helping the homeless I just don't want to support the Clueless

April 15 Tax Day
Your income taxes are normally due on April 15th unless that date falls on a Saturday or Sunday, in which case they are due on Monday the 16th or 17th.
However, under the new administration’s policies and for the next 4 years, taxes will not be due until you are nominated to a cabinet position.
Tax Day Tea Party !!
Mine was on the 13th we had another yesterday in North Las Vegas.
More pictures here
Three reasons to go out and be a part of a Tax Day Tea Party TODAY:
* If you're a 50-year old-with a college degree, you will pay approximately $81,000 over your working life just to pay the interest on the debt in the Obama budget.
* If you're a 40-year-old, you'll pay $132,000.
* And if you're a 20-year-old, just starting out after college, you will pay a whopping $114,000 just to service the interest on the debt created by the Obama budget and over $240,000 in taxes.
I am a State's Enemy!!
Torch go read this one Pamela Meister I follow her witting, she is pretty middle of the road but an originalist on the US Constitution.
Homeland Security on guard for 'right-wing extremists'
I can NOT believe what I just read! Just go check out the “Key Finding”
I am a State's Enemy!!
A newly unclassified Department of Homeland Security report warns against the possibility of violence by unnamed "right-wing extremists" concerned about illegal immigration, increasing federal power, restrictions on firearms, abortion and the loss of U.S. sovereignty and singles out returning war veterans as particular threats.
Go see what Michelle Malkin said.
However, the document, goes on to suggest worsening economic woes, potential new legislative restrictions on firearms and "the return of military veterans facing significant challenges reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of carrying out violent attacks."
The report from DHS' Office of Intelligence and Analysis defines right-wing extremism in the U.S. as "divided into those groups, movements and adherents that are primarily hate-oriented (based on hatred of particular religious, racial or ethnic groups) and those that are mainly anti-government, rejecting federal authority in favor of state or local authority, or rejecting government authority entirely. It may include groups and individuals that are dedicated to a single issue, such as opposition to abortion or immigration."
I guess that would include about everyone Right of Center. The Governors of Texas, Louisiana,South Carolina ,and Alaska come to mind right away.
"Proposed imposition of firearms restrictions and weapons bans likely would attract new members into the ranks of right-wing extremist groups as well as potentially spur some of them to begin planning and training for violence against the government," the report continues. "The high volume of purchases and stockpiling of weapons and ammunition by right-wing extremists in anticipation of restrictions and bans in some parts of the country continue to be a primary concern to law enforcement."
Most notable is the report's focus on the impact of returning war veterans.
News Busters covers the Returning Veterans, and recent shootings.
"Returning veterans possess combat skills and experience that are attractive to right-wing extremists," it says. "DHS/I&A is concerned that right-wing extremists will attempt to recruit and radicalize veterans in order to boost their violent capacities."
The report cites the April 4 shooting deaths of three police officers in Pittsburgh as an example of what may be coming, claiming the alleged gunman holds a racist ideology and believes in anti-government conspiracy theories about gun confiscations, citizen detention camps and "a Jewish-controlled 'one-world government.'"
It also suggests the election of an African-American president and the prospect of his policy changes "are proving to be a driving force for right-wing extremist recruitment and radicalization."
The report states the DHS will be working with state and local partners over the next several months to determine the levels of right-wing extremist activity in the U.S.
The report warned law enforcement agencies to watch for suspicious individuals who may have bumper stickers for third-party political candidates such as Ron Paul, Bob Barr and Chuck Baldwin.
It further warned law enforcement to watch out for individuals with "radical" ideologies based on Christian views, such as opposing illegal immigration, abortion and federal taxes.
All in all this report is quite alarming and very frightening!! It shows what is to come from this administration in the near future. Essentially, if you are right of very left, go to church, own a gun and or pro life you are an enemy of the State. For sure you better not listen to any conservative radio host.
I do all of those things so I am sure the State will have a file on me in short order.
So does Big Dog

"The high volume of purchases and stockpiling of weapons and ammunition by right-wing extremists in anticipation of restrictions and bans in some parts of the country continue to be a primary concern to law enforcement."
Most notable is the report's focus on the impact of returning war veterans.
News Busters covers the Returning Veterans, and recent shootings.
"Returning veterans possess combat skills and experience that are attractive to right-wing extremists," it says. "DHS/I&A is concerned that right-wing extremists will attempt to recruit and radicalize veterans in order to boost their violent capacities."
The report cites the April 4 shooting deaths of three police officers in Pittsburgh as an example of what may be coming, claiming the alleged gunman holds a racist ideology and believes in anti-government conspiracy theories about gun confiscations, citizen detention camps and "a Jewish-controlled 'one-world government.'"
It also suggests the election of an African-American president and the prospect of his policy changes "are proving to be a driving force for right-wing extremist recruitment and radicalization."
The report states the DHS will be working with state and local partners over the next several months to determine the levels of right-wing extremist activity in the U.S.
The report warned law enforcement agencies to watch for suspicious individuals who may have bumper stickers for third-party political candidates such as Ron Paul, Bob Barr and Chuck Baldwin.
It further warned law enforcement to watch out for individuals with "radical" ideologies based on Christian views, such as opposing illegal immigration, abortion and federal taxes.
All in all this report is quite alarming and very frightening!! It shows what is to come from this administration in the near future. Essentially, if you are right of very left, go to church, own a gun and or pro life you are an enemy of the State. For sure you better not listen to any conservative radio host.
I do all of those things so I am sure the State will have a file on me in short order.

PETA Kills Pets
PETA’s Pet Killing Program Set a New Record in 2008
Animal lovers worldwide now have access to more than a decade’s worth of proof that People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) kills thousands of defenseless pets at its Norfolk, Virginia headquarters. Since 1998, PETA has opted to “put down” 21,339 adoptable dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens instead of finding homes for them.
PETA’s “Animal Record” report for 2008, filed with the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, shows that the animal rights group killed 95 percent of the dogs and cats in its care last year. During all of 2008, PETA found adoptive homes for just seven pets.

Sunday in a U.S. Navy operation that killed three of the four Somali pirates
MOMBASA, Kenya (AP) - An American ship captain was freed unharmed Sunday in a U.S. Navy operation that killed three of the four Somali pirates who had been holding him for days in a lifeboat off the coast of Africa, a senior U.S. intelligence official said.
One of the pirates was wounded and in custody after a swift firefight, the official said.
Capt. Richard Phillips, 53, of Underhill, Vermont, was safely transported to a Navy warship nearby.
The official was not authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.
A government official and others in Somali with knowledge of the situation had reported hours earlier that negotiations for Phillips' release had broken down.
The district commissioner of the central Mudug region said talks went on all day Saturday, with clan elders from his area talking by satellite telephone and through a translator with Americans, but collapsed late Saturday night.
"The negotiations between the elders and American officials have broken down.

The Bainbridge, named in honor of Commodore William Bainbridge who served in the war against the Barbary pirates....

Spread The Welth
Spreading the wealth is such hard work!!
I will be getting measured for a new upper part for my leg.
I was also approved to go to San Diego to be evaluated for a "C-Leg"
A huge difference in the capabilities of this knee/leg...
Anyway after I get my new upper, the socket part of my current leg. I will get it all adjusted then have 30 days or so to get used to the new socket. Then off to San Diego.
All those in the evaluation process here in Vegas agree that I am a prime candidate for this hi-tech leg and should be quickly approved for it.
I'll keep ya posted.
