internet phones

I have a internet phone and it is not listed. Some how this person rings me and does not show there phone number and wants me to go into my computer and open up the workings on line. So I listens to the instructions given by the caller and proceed to shut down my computer and in the mean time say yes to all her instructions. They tell me to do this and that and I say yes did that and they rattle on. Then I say bugger what has happened and I sit there tapping the keys and she waits till I finish.I say "We will have to start again" and we go threw it again then they hang up. Or it might go something like this Are you the owner of this phone and I say no do you have a computer and I say no and after about six nos they hang up. Or they ask if I would like something and I say yes and they go on and on and it finally asks for my credit card details and I say I don't have one. Quick as a whip they ask If I could send them a money order  and I say that's OK and they give me the details on where to send the money. I figure next time they want to go this way I will send them a brick covered in white laundry powder collect!!!

drug sub

I have made new bearings for the winch and rebuilt it. The cable was refitted and wound up and it works like new. will heve to wait for the weather to improve I do not want to fight bad weather in a untried boat. This gives me more time to do those small jobs that require time. i will make a list and then get that work all done. i read about someone talking about messing about in boats and they said it was the journey and i find this to be true.

nuclear power

Nuclear power stations should be built below ground water so they can be feed water in a disaster situation. FREE TO THE MAKERS OF THESE MACHINES. gravity does not break down. The cost to built below ground is not that expensive and if there is water that can run threw the installation all the better.

Just to recap here is a previous post on the subject.

Well I here in the news by a whistle blower that safety is a problem at ANSTO at Lucas Heights. What's new, here is a photo of a cartoon drawn by one of the workers at ANSTO when it was the AAEC. Things haven't changed  just look at the reactor in the image The extension cord and the sparks coming from the computer and this is from the elite of Australian technology. Or is this just the coffee shop at the canteen? Now I personally haven't worked at the above places but when I was working with my old mate from the UTS in Sydney some of the engineers from ANSTO came in and told of harrowing stories and things to come. This is why when I saw this cartoon at the rubbish tip, that I was to have it for this blog and this moment in time. IT'S AMAZING HOW MUCH TRUTH IS SAID IN JEST......I dont know who the artist is or who the person is in the cartoon. What I do know of is that the waste from the reactor is in holes drilled into sandstone.....

Vita Needle Finds Vital Employees Among the Elderly

Workforce, Nov, 2000 by Caroline Louise Colec

As a group, the senior citizens at Vita Needle Co. are still working to take home weekly paychecks for many of the same reasons that those half their age do.
Some need the wages to supplement pensions or their Social Security checks. Others are saving for vacations or "those little extras." Still others just want to stay active in their "retirement."
To their employer, though, the mostly older workers at the Needham, Massachusetts, company represent a loyal, dedicated, and flexible workforce that meets the modern-day needs of a small manufacturing concern in a competitive market.
Of the 35 employees at Vita Needle, most on the factory floor are over 65. Many who spend their days turning slender rods of hollow steel into syringe needles are well into their 80s.
These days, the average age at Vita Needle hovers around 76, but given the company's reputation for providing "work for life," that number edges up with each passing year, according to company president Frederick Hartman.
"We haven't had anyone hit 100 yet, but we're hoping for that; it would be just fine," said Hartman, one of the handful of company youngsters at age 48. "It's not that we won't hire someone younger. But when younger people come up the stairs and take a look at who we have working here, they generally say it's not for them."
Hartman, however, didn't adopt his gray-haired employee profile after attending a business-management class or in response to an overactive sense of civic responsibility. Rather it happened by accident.

Earthquakes

I have said before in a press release on March 1, 2010 about the greedy ones taking oil from the earths shock absorbers before. Now they plan to take the gas from coal seams as well in Tara in Queensland as well. We do not learn moving mass amounts of  iron ore and other substances from the earths plates and putting it somewhere else. This looking for more trouble. It continues at an alarming rate. We deserve what we get. Do not construe this as impassionate it is just the truth. The only way to reduce harm to the plant is to reduce population and thus reducing the need for more stuff. Lets do it by not reproducing, not by wars. I commend the Chinese for there one child policy and its about time the western world followed.

Boiling water in small spaces

I read about small houses and thought this might help to reduce energy consumption. The cup is heated at the same time as the water I sometimes use an insulated mug but I like the ceramic cup to drink from.
