Due to touch down of tornado in New Iberia, LA the whole town razed to ground and two innocent lives are also lost. Had those homes are built with Cement and Steel like rest of the world do there wouldn't have been any loss of lives and property. US claim that it believes in recycling. Yeah we recycle petty things but we build our homes with 100% non-recyclable wood. In our homes every single thing used is non-recyclable and comes from trees the Structure Frame to Roof to Cub Boards in our kitchen. Not only single family homes even multistoried apartment complexes are also built totally using wood. The federal government oversees so many things but conveniently ignores this type of wastage there by allowing the cutting of trees and global warming. The lame excuse we give for this type of wastage is building homes with concrete and steel is very expensive because labor involvement is too much. OK why can’t we use the cheap labor that is coming across the border?

More solid wastes are environmental concerns such as excess cements and hazardous substances.

I have already made biodiesel successfully using fresh vegetable oil (homebrew). i tried using canola oil and the results were good. I am now trying using jatropha oil but I am experiencing problems when I try the same procedure just as I did with canola oil with the right measurements.:

When I heat the oil for 55 degrees celsius I should pour in the methoxide, usually from my experience the oil will start to thicken and then it will become thinner than original oil while I keep stirring. However with jatropha oil, after pouring methoxide in the oil, a reaction takes place and iwhite like soapy bubbles appear with the oil which I don't find normal. What should I do to prevent this from happening? Was 55 degrees c too much? What's the cause of this?

UASB(Upflow Anaerobic Sludge Bio-reactor) functions in the absence of atmospheric oxygen at lower DO(Dissolved Oxygen). But, as per my belief plain air agitation(coarse bubbling in the bottom of water tank) will not change the DO to that extent that UASB functioning would be disturbed. Effluents which require anaerobic treatment are non-bio-degradable. Such effluent cannot accept free oxygen so easily. If they can, the UASB will not be required & one has to follow aerobic system.

In the middle of the ocean (not over land). Would it be enough to disperse the storm? Would an Airburst or subsurface explosion be more helpful?

the advantages are numerous; security(no windows to break into), efficiency(much easier to maintain a constant temperature), quieter(no outside noise). Modern technology can make it comfortable even for claustrophobics.
I saw a TV ad where a guy got off his couch directly to a treadmill that had projector screens on both sides with an outside view moving by as fast as he was running.

Making walls(and ceilings) project anything you want(even windows with a view of your choice), in awesome HD quality (important note:viewable from any angle like a TV does) is already technically feasible. Pumping outside air and sunlight inside is easy. Securing your home is as easy as locking the front door and garage door. Your yard will be directly above you.

Businesses too, like Warehouses, some factories, offices, can be made totally underground too.

The state has passed legislation that forbids wood burning stoves and furnaces to operate with no visable plume.


This is a far greater regulation that the State has for oil burning furnaces.

You know Leo, we're all part of it. Man is a part of nature. Who are we to say this temperature differential isn't all part of nature's plan...and perhaps necessary for the survival of our species? Scientists have always asserted we are living in a very brief time period of warmth between two ice ages. By increasing the planet's temperature (not 'artificially', but naturally, as man IS part of nature) how do we know we aren't preventing the next ice age?

A few inches of coastline and an Arctic specie or two seem like a small price to pay for not having a glacier in my backyard.

And, hey...nice weather we're having, huh? 55 degrees for Wild Card Weekend. Not having to wrap myself up like Randy in 'A Christmas Story' to go to Lincoln Financial Field and watch the Eagles beat the Giants ain't half bad.

Go Birds!
