Well. Sandra Bullock doesn't look like Indian Bullocks. Besides, in India bullocks are male, and usually castrated.
nobody bothered to tell you? There's an app for that, you know.
Third time's the charm: trying to come up with something you can just click-and-read:
This one's in html:
whoops, forgot there's stuff on arxiv: just read this one:
sorry, I forgot about this arxiv article:
No, the science isn't settled.

But the metric being wrong means that black holes fail to satisfy conservation of energy. Assume that conservation of energy is satisfied and fix the metric -- you'll find that a cross term was dropped -- and it all works out.
there are errors in the standard equations, such that the lagrangian breaks down there, because the standard equations do not properly account for energy conservation.

Fix your metric, and it comes out correctly. And black holes then do mathe|atically exist.
The callousness here is more than I can deal with, so I will deal with trivia. Look up the death of Arias, IIRC, or the plague of Athens. Ebola, like AIDS, existed long ago (AIDS cite: The Tipping Point, note about research showing AIDS-type deaths in Napoleonic era)
Well, the mathematically sound system would be to pay real wages for real work, so that you couldn't hire shills at a dime-a-dozen. Not only because they had real pay, but also because they had more self respect than that. But that runs contrary to the American ideal (which is More for the Powerful, and the Powerless can dream of that which will never, trust me, never be). Which means that in an Amerika-run world (or EU... trust me, EU is the same only worse), it won't happen.
The same is true with google. Well, I never use it any more, because if I google something, I either get Alibaba or yelp, and unless I want Alibaba or yelp, it doesn't help me one iota. After all, if I wanted Alibaba, I'd GO to alibaba.
windmill power goes something like the 4th power of the blade speed. As a result, your maximumepower is harvested at the windmill blade tips. To increase the efficiency, you want maximum possible tip speed, but wear is a function of shaft speed. so you want high tip speed, low shaft speed. Therefore you need a large area.
Or lets put it in terms of the disk plane. Harvestable wind is a function of the area of the intersected disk. If you double the radius, you quadruple the harvestable wind. Actually, you do better than that because you reach higher (with a higher wind speed), and farther from the tower (which slows the wind). So again, you want a large radius blade.And yes, long blades under extreme torsional and bending moments, at high speed IS a recipe for blade failure.
Sorry, previous oposter lacks imagination.
Dry wave power = sand dunes,
I wonder: alternating neodynium magnets and ferrous enhanced coils, with air gaps between. As the wave comes through, and changes the interveningcore material (Air/salt-water), I'd expect a current in the coils.
probably not practical.
Option 2: porcelain and plastic rockers, with magnetics inside.
Option 3: a float, a unidirectional clutch (like a bike), a drive belt, and a shaft to an unexposed generator.
I think there have been some good wave generators out there (IIRC, Scotland comes to mind). I'm inclined to believe it is the power transmission / distribution / production companies.
For that, I think the answer is to target specific industries, and set up near them. Provide your own power lines. For example, use your power to produce fresh water and brine; dry the brine to produce sea salt, and sell the water to water-rights states.
Which regresses to the point that very few markets are actually free; most are very specific about who the priveleged are that can benefit. Fishing fleets, taxicab owners, rocket sales, X-prize contest (anyone could compete, the unfavored had to compete without fuel) also grocery store workers, teachers, medicine, and so on.
Don't forget that you don't have the right to trade your labor across 'free trade' borders; that right belongs to companies that you must pay for the privelege of having your products and services be traded.
And no, even with non-free markets, it feels lousy to be the slave who is sold.
oh, did I mention that as billionaires are unloading stocks, AND volume is at a low, company buybacks are at an all-time high?
And no, even with non-free markets, it feels terrible to be the slave who is sold.
