Venezuela

Another cautionary tale. I was twice to that fair land in the 1980's on vacation. At that time it was run by the Spanish Elite. Even though Caracas was even at that time considered dangerous for a Gringo, it was a very pleasant place and the poverty was not in your face. Today under Socialist control no matter whose side you are on its hard not to recognize the state is failing. However if we really believe in Democracy the Democratic nations have to stop overthrowing elections.

Trading one bad guy for another is a coup is not a way forward.

“A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.”

Damascus steel



Real Men only forge Damascus Steel. The Blade carried is the calling card of men. If you cant forge your own Scimitar of the Lion, do not wade into a losing battle. I get some at Vegas Forge.

Patent Pending Wing Mast



An inflatable PVC D profile with one side hard PVC shaped to fit into a standard mast rail. It inflates into a D ish shape. It is mounted on the bow side of the mast. This will give the leading edge of the mast a wing profile. The width of the profile will be between 15 and 30 Cm depending upon the size of the mast.

Another feature is a double bladder so the leading edge can be made to be efficient either port or starboard.


Is the US an evil Empire?

US MILITARY OPERATIONS HOT AND COLD 2019
There seems to be no brake on Facebook
a benevolent Empire would break
the ten year challenge. There is a wiff
on nefarious and male privilege surrounding
all the FANGS that emotes evil.

Who became Billionaires by getting the
world misplained on OXY. Reminds me of
the British Empire and Opium wars
speaking of wars the US military
is currently based in 40% of the countries
in the world, and the state department is in all but IRAN
and North Korea.

Huawie is acknowledged to have
the best 5G package on the planet
so what does the US do?
Compete, no no no
bribe the refs
yes yes yes.

The money quote from 2014 confirming
the widely held belief that after benefits of
5G are more important than the profits
The real issue is that nothing has changed since a 2014 report from The Register that Huawei categorically refuses to install NSA backdoors into their hardware to allow unfettered intelligence access to the data that crosses their networks.

A Huawie princess was arrested
but in Canada no crime was
detected
Image result for huawei princess
nevertheless we lost our
face for China
and it seems
all part of a diabolical 
scheme
as the US has not
to this day filed
the papers to make
an extradition play
So Canada takes
it from behind
while the US
robs us blind.

Heaven forbid we
look at the Middle East
where its hard to figure
out who is proxy and who
is puppet
the only sure thing is that
Israel is at the center of 
this flaming ring
and is the only nation
capable of extinguishing
the thing.

To make a simple story
short be as cynical as possible
and the truth shall be revealed
Apparently Israel has been 
at the birth of ISIS and even
provided the manger. Given
the strange circumstances
of the White Helmets
one in the words of Butch Cassidy
has to ask
WHO ARE THOSE GUYS?

Since 911 the USA has spent
some 4 Trillion Dollars fighting
men in caves and lost
Is there any problem in the 
world that could not have 
been fixed with 4 Trillion Dollars?
But for the USA that is not enough
waste
there are trillions to blow
in outer space

Hwaiwe and the Great Game

Huawei is moving into the technologies of tomorrow, as well as being a major player in 5G. Photo: iStock
HAL IS THAT YOU?
Well we still
draw pipelines 
on the maps
and quarrel over
the routes
and fees
the future
is all fiber optics
and the machines
that deceive
who will control
communications
and decide
who reads
the public
like a book?

Sopranos 20 year Anniversary


Well they have aged
extremely well
20 years later
and no serious
challenge to the
best drama
of all time
if you include
some consider
the contemporary
Wire to be better
Thank YOU
HBO.

Mr Jones Jones Calling Mr Jones at the Airport

Image result for image of A380

There is something going
on Mr Jones
and I think I know
what it is
the world is turning
the same speed as
before but humans
are speeding up 
the history of their
planet which has
no relation to 
reality at all

Airports, train stations
harbours and even intersections
have a huge impact on civilizations
and the USA seems to have abandoned
the idea of national infrastructure
but Turkey, Dubai and China are
not sleeping

Maybe the A380 will work after all
not made in America

Hidzis AP60 Pro Music Player


I got one 
and even AmaZon
does not know
where to get the next one
and like the Oppo
its something special

If you think you have 
heard good music
your likely not
listening

I have heard something
good once before
that was not live
and even live
you need a acoustic
angel to get something
approximating enjoyable
sound.

I had a NAD DVD player and man
it rocked DVD and CD but it
was like vinyl a pain to work
in the real world
so I went with MP3
to tell the truth mostly Apple lossless
from from mother board 
soundboard and it
was fine enough
although I knew
deep down as soon
as I had the disposable cash
I would buy a sound card
never did maybe never will
now that I have the Hidzis AP60 Pro
the Hong Kong mystery sound
machine that makes you work
to hear the sounds

It has the chips to give music
the edge you dont know your
missing. I combine it with my
Senhisser CX Sports to get
a concert in my head
that was sci fiction
in the 20th century

So if you want a camera
buy one
if you want to listen to music
dont do it on a cell phone.

PS Setup will not be alright
it will make you work through
the night
big tip
put your music files in a file
named music

Why we cant have good things ad infinitem

“York Region buses that used to travel to the centre of the York University campus are now diverting to the Pioneer Village subway stop,” writes Jessica Bell.

York University in Toronto has nearly 2000 buses transit there daily. Now that there is a subway stop this should be held up as a sterling example of integration. Instead two agencies decided to sabotage public transit by no longer traveling to this hub. SHAME SHAME.

How Finland became a Hockey Superpower

Player Headshot

More or less by focusing on skills for young players. Whats remarkable about the latest Finish World Cup win is that their best 3 players could not play because they are already in the NHL.

A common trait of great hockey players is thinking the game well. This has two aspects. First one that can to some extent be learned. Reading the ice like a billiard table. The second is slowing the game down in your mind. Which also can be learned a little bit. Could it be that Finland's exception education system is the true Finnish secret to success? 

If you want a great society make great children.
