Frontierist News Roundup 20070105 A few highlights: National Guard at border retreats in the face of Mexican gang gunshots (probably were afraid of being called “racist”)... Apparent breakthrough in small stream hydroelectric… UAE dumps dollars… $33,470 fertility bounty for Germans… South Florida gated community guards get armed, dress like SWAT teams and make citizen’s arrests (don’t try this if you’re a goy community or the SPLC will confiscate your real estate) ... amazon.com founder had successful rocket test… Bussard wins IAS award for “fusion breakthrough”... Schwarzenegger provides another fertility bounty for illegals… MIT offers all courses free… “The entire 25.5-square-mile (66-square-kilometer) Ayles Ice Shelf broke free from the northern coast of Ellesmere Island on August 13, 2005” “Standardized Hand Signals For Close Range Engagement (C.R.E.) Operations” “Some motorists stopped along Interstate 465 on the city’s west side Saturday to take care of the boy until officers arrived, the Indiana State Police said.” ““I looked up and I seen this little ... [sic JAB] boy running down the middle of the slow lane in the interstate. I just could not believe what I was seeing,” said Troy Crady, one of those who stopped to help.” The description of the little boy was apparently limited to “...” by the editors, most likely replacing an ethnic description of course. “Craig Baker, 46, sold merchandise and grilled sausages Friday for about 100 people who showed up in heavy rain. He insisted he wasn’t trying to offend anyone with the pigs, which are forbidden from the Muslim diet.” I wonder how long before people who build Hobbit homes such as this start being attacked as “racist” the way “Lord of the Rings” was. “The workers, some of them pilots, said the object didn’t have lights and hovered over an airport terminal before shooting up through the clouds, according to a report in Monday’s Chicago Tribune.” The strange thing about this isn’t the sighting of a UFO—there are UFO sightings every month by “credible witnesses”—but rather the reporting of such a UFO sighting by virtually the entire mainstream media. “Ian Gilmartin, 60, has invented a mini water wheel capable of supplying enough electricity to power a house” [...] “A conventional water wheel allows the water to escape prematurely as the wheel rotates, but the Beck Mickle hydro generator contains the water for the full drop of the device, converting about 70 per cent of the energy into electricity.” “The latest to make a major move is the United Arab Emirates, which joined Russia, Switzerland, Venezuela and others late last month when it shifted a chunk of its reserves into euros.” “The government, worried about a shrinking population, introduced benefits worth up to $33,470 to encourage working couples to have children. But only babies born from Jan. 1 on qualify.” “Lennar [...] also said it has “not yet seen tangible evidence of a market recovery.” And it announced it would sell much of its interest in a joint venture known as LandSource, which owns a major amount of undeveloped property near Los Angeles.” [...] “The New River has been recognized as a significant pollution problem since the late 1940s, primarily because of its extremely high concentrations of fecal coliform bacteria and the stench at its entry to the U.S. With population growth and an inadequate sewer infrastructure, Mexicali has contributed an increasing amount of raw sewage into the New River” [...] “The stench of the New River near the boundary, particularly at night and during the summer, is oftentimes overpowering. Discarded tires, trash, dead animals and other wastes line the channel, foam blows into the streets of one of Calexico’s residential areas and toward its downtown area, mosquitoes and other pests thrive during the summer season, all of these factors only serve to elevate contagion risk. Scores of illegal immigrants are also exposed as they use the river to enter the U.S.; immigrants often evade the Border Patrol because agents will not enter the water to detain them. Those who succeed in crossing will rarely receive adequate medical attention or screening; and they will often find jobs in the agricultural or food service industries, carrying New River diseases to their various destinations in California and across the U.S.” “McGinnis shouted a warning to the other soldiers before hurling himself onto the grenade, lodged near the vehicle’s radio, shortly before it blew up, killing him.” “For saving the lives of the other soldiers and sacrificing his own, McGinnis, 19, of Knox, has been posthumously awarded the Silver Star, according to a U.S. military statement released in Iraq.” “Jurors weep over smuggling victims’ stories” “The latest work, announced today, shows a link between a gene and herpes simplex 1, or HSV. The form of the ApoE gene called ApoE-4 is the leading known risk factor for Alzheimer’s. And HSV is the form of herpes that causes cold sores around the mouth. More than 80 percent of Americans are infected with HSV.” See the Wikipedia article on The International Academy of Science Also, for some of my history with Dr. Bussard, see my draft legislation funding fusion technology prizes and my recent promotion of his lecture at Google Corp. HQ (which brought the number of viewers of that lecture from hundreds to tens of thousands). biography of Ms. Cross (w/ picture) “If enacted by the Legislature, his proposal would affect about 763,000 children who now lack insurance. Although the administration has not revealed details of how it would pay for such a program, officials estimate that extending insurance to all children could cost the state as much as $400 million a year.” “The cost? It’s all free of charge.” “The OpenCourseWare movement, begun at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in 2002 and now spread to some 120 other universities worldwide, aims to disperse knowledge far beyond the ivy-clad walls of elite campuses to anyone who has an Internet connection and a desire to learn.” Back when I was working on the PLATO computer based education project, one of the goals of many of the folks was to separate training from credentials awards so that the ethical conflict of interest is removed. I think its fascinating that this is now occurring. The study was led by the completely unbiased Vivek Wadhwa. No mention was made of the *quality* of the startups created by the immigrants. Perhaps there will be some mention in some fluff piece just as there are various fluff pieces that proclaim the “benefits” of immigration throughout history. But from where I sit, I see a computer industry that basically ceased serious, basic innovation in direct proportion to the promotion of immigration, with companies that led the charge, like Sun Corporation, going from leaders to all but bankruptcy. “According to the Border Patrol, an unknown number of gunmen attacked the site in the state’s West Desert Region around 11 p.m. The site is manned by National Guardsmen. Those guardsmen were forced to retreat.” John Robb’s Global Guerrillas comments. [...] “The janitors cited five Manhattan clubs, including the chain’s flagship gym in the Time Warner Center at Columbus Circle, as places where “lewd behavior” is rampant in the men’s locker rooms, showers, saunas and steam rooms.” [...] “Equinox officials called the charges “frivolous”“ [...] ““It’s just not an issue here at Equinox,” said the chain’s Chief Operating Officer Scott Rosen.” It’s hard to believe the upstanding TV execs at Time Warner would put up with such behavior in their backyard. [...] “The walk was not in protest of black hate violence. The victims are not blacks. They are three white women. They were brutally beaten on Halloween night in Long Beach. Ten black teens are charged with the attack. During the attacks the blacks allegedly hurled racial insults, and taunts that included shouts of “I Hate Whites.” That prompted prosecutors to slap eight of the teens with a hate crimes charge. The hate charge raised two thorny questions: Can, and do, blacks commit hate crimes? And if they commit them, what should civil right groups say and do?” “Does America need a Foreign Legion?” “People have put up with all this because it happened so quickly and for the same reason that the great mass of losers in casinos put up with odds that favor the house: The spectacle of a few ecstatic big winners encourages the losers to believe that, hey, they might get lucky and win, too. We have, in effect, turned the U.S. into a winner-take-all casino economy” Comments:2
Posted by Retew on Sun, 07 Jan 2007 00:46 | # Interesting Fred. We in Britain currently have the option of choosing our domestic electricity supplier, and the one I use generates its electricity from a hydroelectric dam but it is a little more expensive than the traditional fossil fuel consuming companies. Maybe if more people subscribed, the price would come down. 3
Posted by Al Ross on Sun, 07 Jan 2007 01:59 | # Excellent news digest, James. Thank you. The answer to the question, “Does America need a Foreign Legion”?, might well be “Yes, if it is to fulfil its Steinbeckian destiny as Lennie to Israel’s George. Post a comment:

About Gilmartin’s mini water wheel: the father of a guy who works where I do, just an ordinary rural type without any special training but a very competent jack of all trades, got hold of a discarded small hydro-electric generator, repaired it, and set it up in a stream on his rural property. This was something like twenty years ago. Ever since, it’s provided more than his home’s electricity needs. I believe he’s got an arrangement with the local power company by which he is paid (or at least owed credits or something) for sending his excess production into their grid. The only times he draws power from the grid are when his little hydroelectric dam is shut down for repairs. When the thing is running he’s producing his own power and selling the excess. He hasn’t had an electric bill in twenty years.
