Dark Knight TrailerLooks good to me. I’ve heard some people complain that there are no signature Joker scenes. I’m sure there will be some. It’s only the first trailer. And who wants the movie given away?
Space is at a Premium
Tricky Turtle
New/Old Energy Source
I’m not sure if I’m watching a magic trick, or an invention that will make the cigar-chomping 64-year-old next to me the richest man on the planet. Everything that goes into Frank Pringle’s recycling machine—a piece of tire, a rock, a plastic cup—turns to oil and natural gas seconds later. “I’ve been told the oil companies might try to assassinate me,” Pringle says without sarcasm.
The machine is a microwave emitter that extracts the petroleum and gas hidden inside everyday objects—or at least anything made with hydrocarbons, which, it turns out, is most of what’s around you. Every hour, the first commercial version will turn 10 tons of auto waste—tires, plastic, vinyl—into enough natural gas to produce 17 million BTUs of energy (it will use 956,000 of those BTUs to keep itself running).
Global Warming or Global Governance
This documentary features a host of climate scientists who explain why the IPCC is wrong and AGW is merely a propaganda tool of politicians to enact strict laws. The whole AGW claim is nothing but a ploy so that socialists can get more power. The talks in Bali make that obvious since a lot of it has to do with global taxes and income redistribution. Neither has anything to do with “saving the planet”. It all has to do with power grabs through the use of guilt and recrimination.
