Greetings, Quotaholics:
We drive each weekend between Charleston, South Carolina and Hilton Head
Island which is also in South Carolina. It is about a two hour drive each
way. We live in one spot and our children and grandchildren live in the
other. We visit most weekends. Years
ago, my husband and I laughed each time our mothers got together. One
of the first things they talked about what the skyrocketing price of gas.
It was creeping ever upward and if things didn’t slow down, it would top
the $2/gallon mark. I have no idea what that would be in Euros per liters.
We
thought it was remarkable they would know each gas station and the price
from one day to the next. But they both did. We have officially been given
our Old People badges because we now watch station by station for the
price of gas. It
is usually lower on Thursday and raises over the weekend. It’s funny how
that happens. Must be a new shipment of gasoline delivered on Thursday
evenings to all the stations. Because it certainly can’t be price fixing
or anything like that. As
summer approached, the price of gas began to climb. It’s always amazing
how those winter shipments don’t affect the price so much, but once it
gets warmer, the gasoline does something magical and the prices rise.
There is supposedly a huge glut of crude oil in the US along with a glut
of processed gas. So of course, on weekends the price rises.
Even with a glut,
the market became unstable after the Iranian elections led to so much
civil unrest. Iran is the fourth largest exporter of oil. So with unrest,
their exports could also be hampered. So other exporting countries raised
their prices. In
the past year, the prices have fallen. In July of last year, the average
price was about $140 per barrel. During the winter of 2009, the price
was below $60 per barrel. The price has crept up during May and was over
$70 per barrel. July delivery fell 3.8% or $2.62 and was $66.93 per barrel,
the lowest since June 3 when the price was $66.12 per barrel. All figures
are according to CNNMoney.com.
The prices
fluctuate for a variety of reasons. The unrest in Iran, North Korea, and
Nigeria has been offset by the global market for product. Nigeria is Africa’s
largest oil exporter and there have been attacks on pipelines there. North
Korea is still threatening to explode some more nukes.
What is damping down
the escalating costs is the global markets are not using the already produced
oil at the rates thought. The economic outlook is improving, but not as
quickly as speculators had hoped. The oil usage rates are, therefore,
lower than expected. The US dollar also has regained some ground in the
world markets. According
to CNN, the price of gas eased off on Monday after slowing rising for
the last 54 days. AAA (American Automobile Association) keeps track of
the average price of gasoline in the US and the price dropped from $2.693
to $2.69. That’s a savings of three-tenths of a cent per gallon.
Do you watch
the price of gasoline? Do you have a favorite location to buy your gas?
Is it based solely on price? Do you base your car purchase based on the
projected gas mileage? When
the price of gasoline was very high, other prices rose to cover "fuel
costs." Have you noticed prices dropping as the cost
of fuel has declined? Do you know how much you pay in taxes
for each gallon of gas? Federal
taxes average 18.5 cents per gallon with states adding their own taxes.
Do you know about an OPEC tax?
But before we complain about the cost of gas in the US, do you know how
much higher it can be in Europe?
Now THERE are some taxes. Energetically,

[Thank Nathalie]
Two young boys walked
into a pharmacy one day, picked out a box of tampons and proceeded
to the checkout counter.
The man at the counter asked the older boy, “Son, how old are you?”
“Eight,” the boy replied.
The man continued, “do you know what these are used for?”
The boy replied, “not exactly, but they aren’t for me. They’re for
him. He’s my brother. He’s four. We saw on TV that if you use these
you would be able to swim and ride a bike. Right now, he can’t do
either.”

Rain
Water is the basis of life as we know it. We are 85% water. The human
can go a long time without eating, but, without water, we can only last
a few days. Some animals, like camels, can store water, but most have
to drink regularly or die.
Plants are luckier. There is moisture in the soil except for the most
arid locales. Even in deserts, plants grow. They draw the moisture from
the soil and the air to sustain themselves. It is amazing to see the
transformation of a desert when the rare rains occur. The bleak, empty
landscape regenerates to a quick carpet of plant life. Seeds sometimes
waiting for years get the moisture needed to restart the process of
germination, growth, fertilization, and reproduction. In just a few
hours, these energetic plants alter the landscape from a barren emptiness,
to a lush carpet of life.
In the more common areas, rain falls regularly and there is a continual
cover for the planet floor. Maybe it is my imagination, but it seems,
as rain clouds begin to creep across the sky, the plants appear to react
to a predictive yearning for the water of life. It may be a change in
the way the light filters through the clouds, but the plants seem to
become greener even before the rain begins to fall. Anticipation or
simply circumstance?
Our unique metrological model brings our weather in waves. High pressure
areas generally provide clear skies and are rain-free as they pass through.
Low pressure areas bring on the precipitation that refreshes the flora
and fauna, and refills our reservoirs. Deluges stretch the capabilities
of our rivers and lakes to contain the large quantities of water suddenly
falling. As the brisk waters rush with gravity, the sheer mass can produce
the opposite effect, uprooting plant life and washing away seeds.
Too little rain will cause life to wither. Too much rain will drown
the life that awaited and needed it to endure. Luckily, the average
is well in the median between these extremes, and the plants and animals
find a conducive environment. The water of life sustains us, and it
smells good too when it starts on a warm summer’s day.
Here’s your quiz:
Have you been guilty of "singing in the rain"?
On a warm summer’s day when you got soaked by a sudden downpour, do
you find mud puddles calling you to jump right in?
Do you find your hair beginning to go frizzy even before the clouds
dominate the sky?
Do you collect rainwater for gardening or drinking purposes?

“They
kill good trees to put out bad newspapers.”
~ James G. Watt ~
We are living in an age where war is declared not on countries or
people, but on things. For many years now, we have been seeing the
War on Drugs, which is generally believed to be a lost cause. Some
people are of the opinion that this is an entirely unnecessary war.
A more recent phenomenon is the War on Terror, which is widely considered
to be like pushing down a bubble in wallpaper. And now we have a new
War, and the powers that be seem to be incredibly single-minded in
their commitment to it. I speak of none other than the War on Plastic
Bags.
Three or four weeks ago, the City of Toronto enacted a new bylaw.
The bylaw requires all retailers to charge a minimum of five cents
for each plastic bag provided to their customers. The stated objective
is to reduce the use of plastic bags for the benefit of the environment.
The actual objective, I believe, is to make consumers spend more money
so they can line the pockets of the powers that be.
We are told that plastic bags are absolutely terrible inventions that
take a gazillion years to break down in landfills. Now, correct me
if I’m wrong, but isn’t the whole point of landfills to, um, fill
the land? It’s always been my understanding that non-recyclable waste
gets taken to a landfill where it can be buried. We don’t want things
breaking down in landfills, we want to encourage recycling to take
things away from landfills.
AHA, I hear you say! If we stop people from using plastic bags, are
we not sending less waste to landfills? The answer, my friends, is
no. I am of the belief that very few people are in the habit of bringing
their shopping home, packing it away, and then just throwing the plastic
bags into the garbage. Usually, they get stored and used as kitchen
bin liners. But now that the Plastic Bag Nazis are in town, I cannot
do this. The idea of paying for plastic bags sticks in my craw, so
I end up buying bin liners instead. Bin liners that are made of plastic.
Bin liners that are made of plastic, that will end up in landfills
until the end of time. I’m not using fewer plastic bags, I’m just
paying for them now!
I have less of an issue with retailers that provide a free alternative
to plastic bags. The grocery store I regularly use has whole section
of the store dedicated to empty cardboard boxes, right by the checkout.
You put your groceries on the checkout belt, grab a box and pack them
in. It doesn’t change the fact that I still have to buy bin liners,
but at least it’s better than the “other” retailers - the ones with
no boxes - that try their damnedest to market those ridiculous reusable
shopping bags.
Here’s the deal with the reusable shopping bags. Invariably, something
leaks into them. It could be the blood from a pack of meat, it could
be a few drop of milk or juice. What has to happen then is that the
bag has to be thrown into the washing machine. The laundry detergent
gets washed out into the ecosystem and adds to the pollution problem.
And eventually, your reusable bag cannot be reused anymore, so you
have to throw it out.
So at the end of the day, we’re using the same number of plastic bags,
all of which go to the landfills, we are polluting the ecosystem with
additional laundry detergent, and we are disposing of reusable bags
in landfills. Seems to me like this War on Plastic Bags is worse for
the environment than the plastic bags themselves were.
Next they’ll be telling us to bring our own dishes to fast food joints.
Kaleidoscopically yours,
Kirsten

Happy
Wednesday RGQ!!!!! Ok, as I said in my wordy Monday column I am going
to continue my Sunday here today. Friday will be Friday, but for today
the week has not begun. (At least not here)
Sunday
was the Solstice. Solstice means “Sun Standing Still” as it seems
to be if you pay attention to such things. In ancient times, with
no Internet, TV, and City lights to block it the Night sky (and especially
sunrise and sunset) were a popular entertainment.
I
want you to note I did not say it was the Summer Solstice. That is
only half of the equation. It is the Summer solstice in the northern
hemisphere but it is the Winter solstice down below. We only have
one sun, so we have to share it.
OK,
I’ll shut-up now, and move on to the sites. . .
For
a great overview and history, may I recommend Candlegrove.

of course it is always fun to see what Chiff has to offer

Monday I told you about Microsoft’s SteadyState,
which returns your system to the state it was in when you first booted
it. I figured this would be good for families with children that might
click on something they shouldn’t, and really mess up the computer.
When it reboots, it will be magically fixed.
But there were a couple of things I didn’t like about it. First,
you have to defrag your hard drive before you install it. That can
be very time consuming, especially on older PCs. The other thing is
that when you reboot or shut down a computer, it asks you if you want
to save your changes or revert to the previous boot state. In my opinion,
that defeats the purpose. I want it to always revert back to the previous
state. You may still find it useful, though, like if you really don’t
know what you’re doing and accidentally break something. Simply reboot
without saving your settings and you should be back to normal.
There is one more little utility I wanted to let you know about.
It’s Advanced
Process Termination, another fine product from DiamondCS.
It’s like Task Manager in that you can see what processes are running
and terminate them. But Task Manager only has one way to terminate
things, APT has 18 ways. This would come in handy if you happened
to get an infection. Many infections either will stop Task Manager
from running, or make the process immune to termination. If Task Manager
won’t start, APT should still work. If Task Manager can’t terminate
a process, APT should be able to. It’s not a utility you would use
every day, but it could prove invaluable should you get an infection.

Re: Graduation
Well, I think that that is horrible. I think that what that student
did was not that bad, and I think the school over reacted, and I also
think this is the very darn reason our students do not like school.
As for rules, the ones that need to be enforced, are not. The ones that
don’t like this one, are. This country’s got its priorities all screwed
up, and it is time for stupidity like this to stop. I mean you can carry
a gun about any place, kids get shot in school on a regular bases, but
a kid can’t blow a kiss to his mom? What’s up with that?
RIDICULOUS! That’s what! - Patty
IMHO, Graduation is for the
Graduates. This kind of ’showboating’ only adds to their enjoyment as
well as their families. Telling that young man to sit down instead of
getting his diploma is a much bigger disruption to the ceremony. This
is one time the administration is way wrong and deserves to hear from
the whole community as well as a few attorneys. What a heartache for
the parents - first a thrown kiss and then a slap to the face! - Trish

Re: Cliff and Life Issues
Yes, I think there is life off-planet; some of it may also be multicellular
and in a form we can recognize. It may not even be carbon-based - did
you know that the blood of an Octopus is always blue? It uses copper
instead of iron to carry oxygen, yet we can easily digest each other.
The spiral shape of a fossil shell is often regarded as evidence of
life having been present. Motion and growth appear in crystals, but
life can respond to more subtle inputs than minerals. Some people consider
cellular automata to be alive, although they can only live in a computer
- www.hermetic.ch/pca/pca.htm
and at You Tube.
Some people are undoubtedly alive but at a general level of awareness
that is only a small fraction of normal, while others are highly conscious,
but not very active. Until we can talk with Dolphins, we may have to
rely on extra-terrestrials to do any translating. After thousands of
years, it seems we have just learned the body language of horses. (the
Horse Whisperers) I’m somewhat puzzled by the preponderance of visual
contacts with UFOs; If I were trying to contact the human race, I’d
start with radio messages. Maybe half the LGMs are here for "pre-contact"
research, and the others are waiting for salvage rights, or making sure
we don’t get off-planet until we can get along without wars.
You might like to read Lila, by Robert Persig, which describes various
levels of existence. Your body cells are joined in a federation that
supports most of them, but selects millions for death every day. If
they still had the independence of amoebas, they would probably not
have lived as long, but they would be seen trying to escape culling.
Similarly, a company, or a tribe, will continually select out some of
its less suitable people for the greater good of all. Occasionally,
the outcasts find a new niche in which to live, and life evolves. However,
conflict between levels of existence are inevitable. Cells that are
programmed for reproduction have to be partially inhibited by social
considerations and intellectual appreciation of long-term planning,
which may also conflict.
Many nature religions ascribe consciousness to rocks and plants. The
Seth books refer to it as well. Plants on a polygraph do respond to
danger telepathically. The manufacture of frozen orange juice depends
on properties of water that are too subtle to show up in physics books,
being more akin to homeopathic medicine. - Bob of the North
Re: Fast Hands; Dead Fly
Someone is losing their darn
mind i’m killing anything that is pestering me too.Short of a human.So
tell Peta to take a hike - dEE
I think PETA started off in the right direction, but somewhere along
the line they went way overboard.
I certainly don’t want to see any animal abused. I find the idea
of pulling the wings off flies to be cruel. But I certainly don’t
want flies or ants on my food or in my house. I don’t want wasps
building their nests in my house or anywhere that I or my family might
get stung. In that respect I think it’s perfectly normal to kill
insect pests.
When PETA makes such a big deal over a fly being swatted, it makes them
look like a joke and does them more harm than good. - Mike
Re: Tim’s

Re: Yearbook Picture - Shadow or Something Else
Regarding the girl in the photo.
Even though she admitted she was not wearing panties, it is my opinion
that everyone, especially the yearbook staff, believed the area in question
was a shadow at the time and therefore did not even notice the picture.
I cannot imagine that in a high school, if the yearbook staff (who are
normally students) decided to put in a picture, thinking it was the
"real thing" that these students could keep it a secret for
as long as it takes to go to the printer and come back and be distributed.
If they thought it was real, there would definitely have been a rumor
going around (and no one would have known who started it) - "wait
until you see what’s in the yearbook this year."
If the girl and her mother had kept quiet about the whole thing, no
one would know any differently. Googling only the name of the high school
brought up the pictures you mentioned in your column. This is an example
of when they should have just kept their mouths shut.
It seems to me that this is a girl and her mom who are out for their
15 minutes of fame. - Noella
In regard to the girl whose
photo was taken and published in the yearbook while she allegedly while
going commando:
I have
not seen the photos in question, so I am making some assumptions here.
The biggest assumption I will make is that there was no malfeasance
from the yearbook staff or school administration.
Let’s look at the situation from a logical point of view. This is an
issue of personal responsibility. The young lady chose to go commando.
And while in a public place where one has no expectation of privacy,
she was photographed.
If I decided to go au natural on some public beach, assuming that I
wouldn’t be arrested or laughed at, I should not be surprised if someone
took my picture and emailed it or published it on some voyeur website.
The young lady goes commando. A photographer shoots her photo. If he
knew what he got, either at that time or after the fact, I doubt that
the photo would have ever been published - maybe emailed to friends,
maybe placed on Facebook, or maybe printed and stored under his bed
with his other copies of Playboy.
But I will assume that the photographer did not know. And I will assume
the yearbook staff did not know.
I was a yearbook photographer in high school. So while I would examine
photos, I probably would not have done crotch inspections. Neither would
my yearbook editors or the yearbook sponsor (a teacher).
I suppose we could mandate that the yearbook staff and sponsor do crotch
inspection. But when word gets out, can you imagine the outrage parents
would have? "Why is some adult looking at crotches of minor kids?"
Then maybe there is the "homosexual versus heterosexual" aspect
- who does look at whose crotches? Do guys only look at guys’ crotches
or should they be allowed to look at girls crotches. Vice versa for
the girls. No, this whole crotch inspection is ridiculous.
It goes back to the young lady. Again, she chose to go commando. She
was in a public place. Her choice. If she or her mother are really offended
that the photo got published, they should be willing to take the blame.
They could request that the school voluntarily recall all the yearbooks,
ask the staff to work over time to replace the photo with some other
photo, reprint the yearbook at expense, and redistribute the yearbook.
Oh yes, since it was her choice to go commando, she and her mother should
pay for the whole expense to reprint and distribute the book.
The only way if the school could be at fault is if the photographer
snuck into a bathroom or locker room where there is some expectation
of privacy. But it sounds as if that is not the case here.
It was the kid’s mistake, not the school’s. The school acted in good
faith and should not be punished. - Kalifornia Ken
Re: Cliff’s articles
A little behind on this comments I’m afraid. Had a scare with my eldest
dog. She is 14 or 15 (she was a stray, don’t know for sure.) She has
an enlarged liver, dysplaysia and spondylosis and her legs were really
shaky the last few days, kept collapsing when she tried to walk. Thought
for sure this was "it" but she is much better now. Afraid
it will just be like this, more and more episodes till it finally is
her time. Anyroad, I have rarely had trouble with other dogs doing their
business on my lawn. I think I can count the numer of times that has
happened on one hand. I don’t let my dogs leave their business anywhere
either and always take old plastic grocery sacks with me for that purpose.
I save all my old grocery bags and take the extra ones to the dog park
or Dog Beach for others to use.
I do have a 5 ft. chain link fence around my very small yard at the
present time, mostly for my dogs protection. I’ve always had fences
for my dogs, tho this is the first chain link one. I think they’re ugly,
but it lets the dogs see all around the yard so they can "guard,
guard, guard" from the strangers and evil cats. Not anti-cat, used
to have one, this is just the dogs opinion. Besides, there are mean
nasty ugly things out there that can hurt dogs like moving cars and
"poisoners’ so its really for their own good. Then there are the
leash laws which are very strict and nosy neighbors are far too fond
of pointing out and quoting to you at the drop of a hat. I’ve lost too
many dogs to moving cars (one is too many) to not keep them fenced.
As for the birthday thing. My family never was one for large birthdays,
except for my sweet sixteen (1966), which was very low key by todays
standards. Mostly it was a couple of friends or cousins would stay overnight.
Mum would make a special cake of our choosing. She got into fancy cakes
for a few years and made fancy shapes like dogs or cats or fish or people.
She made a "General Lee" cake for my oldest son one year because
he was a big Dukes of Hazard fan. But mostly the birthday kid would
have dinner,then the cake and open a few presents and then we would
stay up all night and annoy the adults. When I started my own family
I had a brief fling with trying to do big parties, but quickly discovered
it was too hard on my nerves and anyway I’m basically anti-social and
intensely dislike entertaining.
So we invented a brand-new old family tradition. The birthday person
is "king for a day"-or queen. They get a brand new outfit
for the occasion. They get to have a dinner of their choice whether
it be eating out or at home. Then they get to pick out a movie that
the whole family + one guest goes to. During dinner usually they open
one or two small gifts like a poster and a favorite cd. But the whole
day is really their gift. My sister has gone just the opposite with
big extravagant parties, lots of people, decorations, the whole nine
yards. She even got into theme parties for a while. She threw a really
mean Kentucky Derby party once, complete with taped horse races and
betting windows and all. Her husband made up names for all the horses
and called the race just like you would hear if you were watching them
on the telly.
BTW, really loved the picture of the doormat! I have a doormat that
voices a similar sentiment. Same colors, only all it says is… LEAVE.
