Well in light of my dismal failure to make a generator, I have decided to try the other end of that problem......the spinnie end of it..(lol...that;s not really a word is it?) So I had to figure out what kind to build...for some reason I like the VAWT..vertical axis wind turbine concept...Maybe because if I triwed to build the classic propeller type it would look like shit and destroy itself in the first real wind..(I know my own building skills...rofl)...So I figure that I could maybe do this type...I have seen a bunch of youtube videos showing the low wind potential of the Savonius style turbine, and the parts can be cheap...4 inch or bigger pvc pipe cut in half length ways, will be used as the blades...plywood or similar for the ends..just weather proof the hell out of it...if it works well change the materials a bit to make it even tougher...metal instead of wood ect...so here is a picture of what I would LIKE to try to build..then later if "yall" need a good laugh I will post a picture what I screwed up in the attempt.....lol....riff

When does 21,000 equal 34,000? When the Pentagon is counting. The 21,000 additional troops President Obama approved for Afghanistan earlier this year have been accompanied by 13,000 extra support troops, bringing the total number in Afghanistan to nearly 68,000. Pentagon and White House officials have made little mention of the extra manpower, which includes engineers, medical personnel, and intelligence experts.
The total numbers of American troops in Afghanistan and Iraq is now higher than at the height of the Iraq surge, highlighting the strain on the military, notes the Washington Post. Defense Secretary Robert Gates plans to ask for the flexibility to send even more support troops—which he refers to as "enablers"—ahead of any decision to send more combat personnel to Afghanistan, although officials say any big increase will be hard to sustain.
For the Nobel peace prize recipient, this must be a bitter pill....All that hope and change and media stroking of Bush Deraingement syndrome and rants about a fake war..that was bipartisan in the inception, and he is doing the same thing...Maybe the Military that advised the other administration, is still in the military, and advised him about how not to run business...but I'm sure it will wind up being the fault of Bush, Beck, and Rush regardless...lol

Advocates of zero-tolerance policies stress that it's difficult for teachers to distinguish pranks from serious threats. In addition, studies have shown that allowing teachers’ some discretion in applying punishment has led to uneven application—with African-American students receiving a disproportionate share of expulsions and suspensions, the New York Times reports.

Lipstick in School (You've got to love this Principal)
According to a news report, a certain liberal private school in
Washington was recently faced with a unique problem. A number of
12-year-old girls were beginning to use lipstick and would put it on in
the bathroom. That was fine, but after they put on their lipstick they
would press their lips to the mirror leaving dozens of little lip
prints..
Every night the maintenance man would remove them and
the next day the girls would put them back. Finally the principal
decided that something had to be done.
She called all the girls to the bathroom and met them
there with the maintenance man. She explained that all these lip prints
were causing a major problem for the custodian who had to clean the
mirrors every night (you can just imagine the yawns from the little
princesses).
To demonstrate how difficult it had been to clean the
mirrors, she asked the maintenance man to show the girls how much effort
was required.
He took out a long-handled squeegee, dipped it in the
toilet, and cleaned the mirror with it.
Since then, there have been no lip prints on the mirror.
There are teachers.... and then there are educators.
Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption, announced today that it filed two new Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuits on September 28th to obtain government records related to the activities of the controversial "community organization" Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN). These lawsuits were filed against the Department of Labor's Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) and the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS).

The protesters banged the drums on the road announcing
WASHINGTON — A sea of protesters filled the west lawn of the Capitol and spilled onto the National Mall on Saturday in the largest rally against President Obama since he took office, a culmination of a summer-long season of protests that began with opposition to a health care overhaul and grew into a broader dissatisfaction with government.
On a cloudy and cool day, the demonstrators came from all corners of the country, waving American flags and handwritten signs explaining the root of their frustrations. Their anger stretched well beyond the health care legislation moving through Congress, with shouts of support for gun rights, lower taxes and a smaller government.
But as they sang verse after verse of patriotic hymns like “God Bless America,” sharp words of profane and political criticism were aimed at Mr. Obama and Congress.
Dick Armey, a former House Republican leader whose group Freedomworks helped organize the protest, stood before the crowd and led the rallying cries in nearly the same spot where Mr. Obama took his oath of office eight months ago.
“He pledged a commitment of fidelity to the United States Constitution,” Mr. Armey said, suggesting that Mr. Obama was in violation of what the founding fathers intended the size and scope of the government to be.
“Liar! Liar! Liar! Liar!” the crowd shouted back, echoing the accusation that Representative Joe Wilson, Republican of South Carolina, hurled at the president three days earlier during his address to Congress.
The demonstrators numbered well into the tens of thousands, though the police declined to estimate the size of the crowd. Many came on their own and were not part of an organization or group. But the magnitude of the rally took the authorities by surprise, with throngs of people streaming from the White House to Capitol Hill for more than three hours.
The atmosphere was rowdy at times, with signs and images casting Mr. Obama in a demeaning light. One sign called him the “parasite in chief.” Others likened him to Hitler. Several people held up preprinted signs saying, “Bury Obama Care with Kennedy,” a reference to the Massachusetts senator whose body passed by the Capitol two weeks earlier to be memorialized.
Other signs did not focus on Mr. Obama, but rather on the government at large, promoting gun rights, tallying the national deficit and deploring illegal immigrants living in the United States.
Still, many demonstrators expressed their views without a hint of rage. They said the size of the crowd illustrated that their views were shared by a broader audience.
“I want Congress to be afraid,” said Keldon Clapp, 45, an unemployed marketing representative who recently moved to Tennessee from Connecticut after losing his job. “Like everyone else here, I want them to know that we’re watching what they’re doing. And they do work for us.”
As Mr. Obama traveled to Minnesota on Saturday to rally support for his health care plan, he flew over the assembling crowd in Marine One. The helicopter could be seen flying overhead as the demonstrators marched down Pennsylvania Avenue.
“This is not some kind of radical right-wing group,” Senator Jim DeMint, Republican of South Carolina, said in an interview as dozens of people streamed by him. “I just hope the Congress, the Senate and the president recognize that people are afraid of what’s going on.”
Mr. DeMint and a few Republican legislators were the only party leaders on hand for the demonstration. Republican officials said privately that they were pleased by the turnout but wary of the anger directed at all politicians. And most of those who turned out were not likely to have been Obama voters anyway.
Protesters came by bus, car and airplane, arriving here from Texas and Tennessee, New Mexico and New Hampshire, Ohio and Oregon. The messages on their signs told of an intense distrust of the government, which several people said began long before Mr. Obama took office.
For the most part, Democrats stayed silent on Saturday, with the exception of a small group of counterdemonstrators who gathered behind a roadblock to protest what they called a “right-wing rally.” Many were members of the clergy, who said they were concerned about misinformation propagated by opponents of health care legislation.
“We’d like to have an honest debate,” said Chris Korzen, director of the nonprofit Catholics United. “I don’t see a lot of substance here.”
While there was no shortage of vitriol among protesters, there was also an air of festivity. A band of protesters in colonial gear wended through the crowd, led by a bell ringer in a tricorn hat calling for revolution. A folk singer belting out a protest ballad on a guitar brought cheers.
In conversations with demonstrators, people identified themselves as Republicans, libertarians, independents and former Democrats. Several speakers denounced the Obama administration’s health care plan as “socialism.” A few Confederate flags waved in the air, but there were hundreds of American flags and chants of, “U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.!” A young girl held a sign saying, “Don’t redistribute the wealth of my Barbies.”
Ruth Lobbs, 57, a schoolteacher from Jacksonville, Fla., said she flew to Washington on Saturday to protest how she believes the government has violated the Constitution. She said she did not vote for the president, adding that her anger has been building for years.
“It’s more than Obama — this isn’t a Republican or a Democratic issue,” Ms. Lobbs said as she held a yellow flag that declared, “Don’t Tread on Me.”
“I don’t know if anything will come of this or not,” she said, “but this is a peaceful way of showing our frustration.”
and then the next clip is the G-20 one there were riots arrest and damages...but notice the tone conveyed by the NYT
PITTSBURGH — Several thousand demonstrators espousing and denouncing a host of causes converged on downtown Pittsburgh on Friday, chanting, pumping up signs and playing instruments in a peaceful and permitted march calling for solutions to a range of problems that they attributed to the economic policies of the world leaders at the Group of 20 meeting.
There was a heavy police presence downtown as the march wound through the planned route. More Photos »

Protesters with Iraq Veterans Against the War, wearing fatigues, marched alongside Tibetans chiming cymbals, chanting denunciations of China and waving signs, like one that read “G20 Let’s Talk Tibet.” Students for Justice in Palestine assembled on Forbes Avenue and called for an end to “the Israeli occupation.” Others held up signs like “We Say No To Corporate Greed,” and “We say yes to human needs.”
One group held aloft with bamboo poles a giant fabric replica of a dove. A marching band with a French horn, several snare drums and a trombone played amid a sea of black, American and Palestinian flags.
The People’s March, as it was called, was sponsored by the Thomas Merton Center, a Pittsburgh peace organization. It came a day after raucous confrontations between the police and protesters resulted in 66 arrests. At least five people needed medical attention, and about 19 businesses sustained damage.
Later Friday, protesters and students gathered near the University of Pittsburgh. Lines of police officers declared the milling groups to be unlawfully assembled and forced people away from the central part of the campus, launching smoke canisters, firing rubber bullets and making arrests.
Observers put the crowd at Friday’s march at 3,000 to 4,000. Speakers urged demonstrators to fight for an array of social issues they felt had been largely ignored in global economic policy.
“We need to show the world that G-20 is not welcome in Pittsburgh,” Pete Shell, the director of the Merton center’s antiwar committee, said from the steps of the city-county building, just blocks from the David L. Lawrence Convention Center, where the G-20 meeting was under way.
It was as close as the protesters were able to get to the meeting of world leaders.
“The city has rolled out the red carpet for them,” Mr. Shell said. “But we need to show them that you are the ones we welcome.”
Nathan Smith, 31, a wine seller from Williamsport, Pa., said he drove three hours to attend the rally. “We need good jobs and good health care, and the G-20 isn’t helping that,” said Mr. Smith, who was carrying a sign that said “Capitalism Kills.” “Their policies are undermining jobs and health care.”
A member of the local chapter of Code Pink, a women’s antiwar group, led a protest against the continued presence of American troops in Afghanistan.
Rows of police officers looked on from the sidewalk, watching a group of more than 400 self-described anarchists clad in black.
Before long, singers from the Raging Grannies and workers from the United Steelworkers of America took the stage to talk about the need for jobs.
After more than an hour, the crowd began to disperse, some wondering aloud if the G-20 leaders would hear their messages.
Cory Perrotte, 20, a student from Duquesne University, was optimistic that it would be hard to ignore thousands in the street.
“They will listen to a certain degree,” he said. “They might not necessarily do anything.”
