Special TAXES rant by Big Dan: "Did you ever use logic and realize that the IRS already knows what your tax return should be and therefore you shouldn't have to do it? They must know, or how could they know you cheated or did something wrong? They'd take you at your word, if they didn't know ahead of time. It's a 'test'. If you cheat in your favor, they'll correct it and say you owe more money. Right? Then why do you have to do your taxes? They should just send you a letter saying you either owe them money, or they owe you money. Oh, I forgot...if you make a mistake in their favor, they won't tell you and they make extra money. That's why you have to do your taxes!!!"
PHONY paranoid rightwing political "oracles" - comedy troupe Kids In The Hall prophesized them in 1994 - Glenn Beck got his entire schtick from this Dave Foley skit:

DRILL, BABY, DRILL !!!!!!!!
Palin's "drill, baby, drill" mantra part of Fox's pro-offshore drilling endorsement - Beck repeatedly touted offshore drilling - Gingrich: "Drill Here, Drill Now, Pay Less" - Other Fox figures also call for increased offshore drilling - Hosts touted myth that drilling is safe because no oil spilled during Katrina, Rita - Fox News hosts spread seepage myth - Cavuto hid lobbying ties of offshore drilling proponent Lott

Conservative media have claimed that Arizona's new immigration law only allows law enforcement to question a person's immigration status if they are suspected of an unrelated offense. But in a statement given to Media Matters for America, a research analyst for the Arizona House Republican majority disputes these claims. AZ law: "For any lawful contact" with a person, police shall attempt to determine immigration status if they suspect the person is undocumented. Conservative media claim AZ law requires "lawful contact" based on "unrelated offenses" (that is NOT in the law..."unrelated offenses") before officer checks legal status - FALSE!!!!!! "Lawful contact" does NOT have anything to do with "unrelated offenses", police can question anyone's status...for no other reason except that they themselves think a person not breaking any laws is an "illegal immigrant"!!! Pretty vague, huh? If a policeman thinks a person who appears not to be breaking any laws is an illegal immigrant...the only possible criteria is if the policeman thinks the person is Hispanic (dark skin).....

Not a PEEP in the corporate owned media they want us to think is "liberal" about this:
Over 10,000 protesters gathered in New York's financial district to demand financial reform.
I'm going to post this video until I'm blue in the face: the corporate owned media is NOT liberal. Corporations aren't liberal. The media OWNERS aren't liberal. 90% of the mainstream media is OWNED by conservatives.
Noam Chomsky says the media isn't liberal, Rush Limbaugh says it is...'NUFF SAID!!!!!!!!

This "blog" as you call it is nothing more than an insecure individual's attempt at being a failed columnist. I feel that all "bloggers" are simply "wannabe columnists". I happen to be a very successful NEPA local radio show personality, and nothing you say on this "blog" or any of your other cowardly attempts at tarnishing my name could ever be a threat nor blow to my radio show. The same way you bash Rush, who doesn't care what you or other meaningless "bloggers" claim, I stand with the professionals in my field even when I don't always see eye to eye with their views. Grow up already.

Police barred from penis enlargement

JAKARTA (Reuters) - Forget about getting a job as a police officer in Indonesia's Papua if you have had your penis enlarged. You won't get it, according to local media reports citing the Papua police chief.
Oddly Enough
An applicant "will be asked whether or not his vital organ has been enlarged," said Papua police chief Bekto Suprapto, quoted on local website Kompas.com.
"If he has, he will be considered unfit to join the police or the military."
The ban was applied since the unnatural size causes "hindrance during training," said police spokesman Zainuri Lubis in Jakarta, quoted by news portal Detik.com.

ReplyDeleteLeaked report: Government fears Deepwater Horizon well could become unchecked gusher
By Ben Raines
April 30, 2010, 2:18PM
'The following is not public' document states
View full size(AP Photo/U.S. Coast Guard)This image provided by the U.S. Coast Guard Saturday April 24, 2010, shows oil leaking from the drill pipe of the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig after it sank. A confidential government report on the unfolding spill disaster makes clear the Coast Guard now fears the well could be on the verge of becoming an unchecked gusher shooting millions of gallons of oil per day into the Gulf. A confidential government report on the unfolding spill disaster in the Gulf makes clear the Coast Guard now fears the well could become an unchecked gusher shooting millions of gallons of oil per day into the Gulf.
"The following is not public," reads the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Emergency Response document dated April 28. "Two additional release points were found today in the tangled riser. If the riser pipe deteriorates further, the flow could become unchecked resulting in a release volume an order of magnitude higher than previously thought."
Asked Friday to comment on the document, NOAA spokesman Scott Smullen said that the additional leaks described were reported to the public late Wednesday night. Regarding the possibility of the spill becoming an order of magnitude larger, Smullen said, "I'm letting the document you have speak for itself."
In scientific circles, an order of magnitude means something is 10 times larger. In this case, an order of magnitude higher would mean the volume of oil coming from the well could be 10 times higher than the 5,000 barrels a day coming out now. That would mean 50,000 barrels a day, or 2.1 million gallons a day. It appears the new leaks mentioned in the Wednesday release are the leaks reported to the public late Wednesday night.
"There is no official change in the volume released but the USCG is no longer stating that the release rate is 1,000 barrels a day," continues the document, referred to as report No. 12. "Instead they are saying that they are preparing for a worst-case release and bringing all assets to bear."
The emergency document also states that the spill has grown in size so quickly that only 1 to 2 percent of it has been sprayed with dispersants.
The Press-Register obtained the emergency report from a government official. The White House, NOAA, the Coast Guard and BP Plc did not immediately return calls for comment made early this morning.
The worst-case scenario for the broken and leaking well pouring oil into the Gulf of Mexico would be the loss of the wellhead and kinked piping currently restricting the flow to 5,000 barrels -- or 210,000 gallons -- per day.

Shear Rams: shear ram
A blowout preventer (BOP) closing element fitted with hardened tool steel blades designed to cut the drillpipe when the BOP is closed. A shear ram is normally used as a last resort to regain pressure control of a well that is flowing. Once the drillpipe is cut (or sheared) by the shear rams, it is usually left hanging in the BOP stack, and kill operations become more difficult. The joint of drillpipe is destroyed in the process, but the rest of the drillstring is unharmed by the operation of shear rams.
Shear-seal BOP (Blind Ram)
An item of pressure-control equipment often fitted to the wellhead during well-intervention operations on live wells. Most commonly associated with coiled tubing operations, the shear-seal BOP is a ram-type preventer that performs the dual functions of shearing or cutting the tubing string and then fully closing to provide isolation or sealing of the wellbore. Shear-seal BOPs are most commonly used in offshore or high-pressure applications where an additional contingency pressure barrier is required.
Annular blowout preventer:
A large valve used to control wellbore fluids. In this type of valve, the sealing element resembles a large rubber doughnut that is mechanically squeezed inward to seal on either pipe (drill collar, drillpipe, casing, or tubing) or the openhole. The ability to seal on a variety of pipe sizes is one advantage the annular blowout preventer has over the ram blowout preventer. Most blowout preventer (BOP) stacks contain at least one annular BOP at the top of the BOP stack, and one or more ram-type preventers below. While not considered as reliable in sealing over the openhole as around tubulars, the elastomeric sealing doughnut is required by API specifications to seal adequately over the openhole as part of its certification process.

Cameron is the company that makes BOPs:
BOPs on the Deep Horizon well-
BOP 2 x Cameron Type TL 18¾in 15K double preventers;
1 x Cameron Type TL 18¾in 15K single preventer;
1 x Cameron DWHC 18¾in 15K wellhead connector
