Bulgaria To Commence Marketing Quality Agricultural Products For Export

News Analysis: Desirous of Increasing Agricultural Exports From Bulgaria, its Marketing Thrust will be to inform customers of the Quality of the Produce. Farmers can improve their incomes significantly by assuring that only their Finest Fruit and Vegetables go to Export.

Corn and Sunflower production in Bulgaria has been very significant for years. Now these other Crops will be featured in Advertisements and News Articles in Europe and Central Asia it is suggested.

The fact that the Bulgarian Government wants additional exports bodes well for Investors who may want to consider reviewing Opportunities with Bulgarian Farm Co-Ops, and well as larger farmers; Farm Equipment and Fertilizers would be good talking points for Entrepreneurs as well.

Possible Farmer associations in Bulgarian Agriculture (with  enthusiastic Government support) could help assure long term profitability in Projects.

The World wants to eat Quality Food.

Reality.

Cold Siberian Winters Demonstrate Gross Failure Of Cosmetic Insulations in Structures

News Analysis: Insulations invented using ‘Entrapped Air” as the Insulator, used in 1930’s Style Products Grossly Fail in extremes of Cold or Heat. Outside temperatures of -48C (-54.4F) with an Inside Residence Temperature of 10C (50F) is not safe for human habitation (especially for Children, the Elderly, or People ill). If one presumes that the walls, roof, and floor of the structures provided the overwhelming bulk of protection against the cold, what are the existing insulations doing to protect the inhabitants? The interior temperature written about is only 10C (50F)!

Residences, Commercial and Industrial Buildings in “Cryo-temperatures” any where in the World need the “Cocoon of Protection™” afforded by “Mega-Temp™” Insulation.

A country’s Natural Gas Usage for heating structures would be needed Less in buildings Shielded with “Mega-Temp Insulation™”. Natural Gas not used for such purposes could be exported to other countries.

Countries can expect ‘Climate Change’ to bring about both Colder Winters and Hotter Summers. for Decades, many Climate Scientists agree. “Mega-Temp™” Insulation, the ‘Active Molecular Insulation™” is the latest Technology Invented for Extremes in Temperature endured by Citizens of the World; ‘Tomorrow’s Insulation, Available Today’.

☆ One Country’s ‘Patriot’ Is Another Country’s ‘Terrorist’

News Analysis: The portrait in Harbin, China’s Railway Station of  a Korean National who assassinated the Prime Minister of Japan, in 1909, has upset the Japanese Citizenry. Both China and Korea are of the opinion that such a ‘Memorial’ to this Event will bring World Peace against Hegemony;  which may lead to Invasion by a Country against another Nation.

Certainly, if one looks at the History of China, in particular, but also of Korea, will find THEIR BEING INVADED, THROUGHOUT THE CENTURIES. 

At the present time, both China and Korea seek to bolster their Defenses against possible future attack by Myopic Nations. The Tu Quoque aspect of  Hegemonic Nations  (HN) is that they decry China and Korea’s Defense Expenditures for modernization while proportionately spending much more themselves! ‘HN’s’ also export more weaponry to other nations by logarithmic proportions than does China or Korea.

Another inconsistency in the logic of ‘HN’s, is for example, China presently funds America $1.3+ TRILLION DOLLARS! Does the funding of an “Enemy”, $1.3+ TRILLION DOLLARS make Any Sense Whatsoever? When has such a colossal Financial Event like this Ever Occurred in the Military History of Mankind? NEVER. Yet, Politicians and the Mass Media constantly harangue about the “Asian Peril”; NONSENSE!

China has much money and does not need a War to help spur its Economy as possibly do other Nations now. The World Bankers who ‘Win By Wars Being Fought’ (a Historical Fact) are not going to financially influence a Nation with Trillions of Dollars in its Treasury; but may do so to a Nation with $17+ Trillion Dollars in Debt.

Which is the ONLY Nation in the World to drop Atomic Bombs on another country? Over the past Five Decades, which is the only SUPER POWER to invade Nations in another Continent?

Intense Thinking can Improve one’s Wisdom.

Oymyakon, Siberia: “Warmth” Is A Matter Of Conscious Thought

News Analysis:  -60C (-76F) swimming in the Kuydusun River in Oymyakon, Siberia shows what “Conditioned Mental Resolve” can accomplish in Extreme Environments. The Gentleman swimming in the River has obviously conditioned himself to feel ‘warmth’ in the extreme icy water.

The human body can be trained to tolerate many different ‘Pain Stimuli’ with relative ease. Continued exposure to physical adversities can be overcome much as a ‘Hurdler’ leaps progressively higher barriers over time; Repetitive attempts will eventually lead to success for the Leaper.

If one extrapolates the application of the “Conditioning Principle” to Daily Life he or she might understand the Disservice Parents may do to their Children; this by NOT EXPOSING THEM to the Realities of Life at a young age. Starting young with very minor ‘problems’ to be solved and ‘Stepping it up’ as they mature, the Offspring can become Psychologically Benefited Adults. Then they do not have to try to escape Life’s Realities with Illegal Drugs, etc. One strengthens Steel by putting it repetitively in a fire.

Everything a Parent ‘Gives’ their Children are not ‘Earned’ by the Children; “Negative Learning”, some people say.

Parents who Love their Children and want to make sure they are both Successful and Psychologically Stable as Adults, can think of the Mental Conditioning this Gentleman in Oymyakon, Siberia went through to make his Icy Water, ‘Warm’ for him.

Tenacity Triumphs, The Weak Perish.

★ California, World’s Sixth Largest Economy, Has Its Drought Emergency Worsening

News Analysis: California’s Drought, the worst in its 153 year History, brings about a dilemma for Farmers. They use  34 Million Acre Feet of Water out of an available total of 43 Million Acre Feet

(An ‘Acre Foot’ is 325,853 U.S. Gallons); Water that is diverted from groundwater, lakes, and rivers. The outlook for measurable rain throughout the State looks very grim for at least the next 90 days per U.S. Government Weather Officials.

The Plethora of Fruits and Vegetables produced in the State is legendary. The three elements of: Abundant Water, Rich Soil, and, many days of Sunshine were California’s ‘Natural Inheritance’. Now, the ‘Game’ has Changed.

Water Conservation, Politicians love to discuss, is only a ‘Bandage’ Repair to a problem. However, this approach can be enhanced by: Ceasing additional acreage for farming throughout the State; Altering the crop mix from high water consumption Fruits and Vegetables to low usage crops; Botanically modifying both Fruit Trees and Grape Vines to use less water; Removal of  Palm Trees; for they consume up to 1,000 liters (264 gallons) of water a day and do not provide shade. 

An additional observation regarding Water Conservation is the America’s Largess in recently increasing allocations of Colorado River Water to Mexico; this was obviously fashionable but short-sighted. One might think the approximately $25+/- Billion Dollars YEARLY  being repatriated to Mexico from America would allow Mexico to build many Desalinization Plants in their beautiful country with TWO Oceans.

The greater need for California is for an Increase in Fresh Water Supply. This can be accomplished by building Desalinization Plants up and down the coast of the Pacific Ocean. If the fresh water is pumped into local aquifers near each facility, then  neighboring regions could draw off the HISTORICAL ALLOCATION of their neighbor (which would be using the ‘New Desalinated Water’). Like ‘Falling Dominoes’ this step-by-step approach would eventually reach the San Joaquin Valley where most farms of the Northern Half of the State are located.

To those who loathe the idea of Desalinization Plants along the California Coast, one can only say: “Necessity Overpowers Fashion-ability”. 

To Investors, one can envision the “Lowered Supply/Steady Demand” Implications of the Drought on Agricultural and Animal Products of all kinds. Prices will increase and Wise Persons with Forethought will explore areas of the world presently growing crops America can use. Additionally, Livestock being raised overseas could be shipped to the United States. 

For the longer term, Entrepreneurs may seek land, in Non-Drought Regions where they could plant crops or Contract with existing Farmers in other geographic areas to supply Produce for America.

Climate Change is an on-going Natural  Process which provides many Opportunities for those Individuals who both can ‘Connect the Dots’ and realize: “The Glass Is Always Half-Full”.

Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev Will Lead Development Of The Russian Far East (Siberia)

News Analysis: Prime Minister Medvedev has given his “Marching Orders” to Civil Officials through out the Russian Far East (Siberia) to assist the Federal Government in its development plans. Foreign Investors are sought with: Tax Holidays and Land Incentives for those who have Economic Foresight. The Great Mineral and Forest Riches of this Area are untold.

Russia has: Funds for Infrastructure Development; Possible  Access to Habitable Environment Building Technology; A Willing Work Force; Intelligent Employee Pool; Multi-Lingual Citizens; and, National Purpose. A ‘Great Combination’ many people say.

Russia’s Prime Minister Medvedev, working in conjunction with President Putin, will be an unstoppable pair (whose Intrepidness is not questioned by other World Leaders). Both “Say What They Mean; and, Mean What They Say”.

Even Chyskaan is impressed with this National Endeavor.

4,000 Australian Sheep Perish On Brief Ship Voyage

News Analysis: “Heat Stress” is allegedly the Cause of Death of 4,000 Australian Sheep which were sent to the Middle East on a ship. The Summer Sun apparently radiated the ship so badly that the deaths occurred over a very short period of time. The ship apparently either had no Insulation or it might have bore “Cosmetic Insulation” of 1930’s Development. The Old Insulation Technologies, like Fiberglass (using ‘Entrapped Air” as the insulator), DO NOT WORK IN EXTREMES OF HEAT NOR COLD. They are ‘Cheap”; as is their Performance.

If the ship in discussion was insulated with “Mega-Temp™ Insulation” one could very reasonably expect an Interior Ship Temperature of approximately 23.8C (75 F) in 40C (104F) Weather because Solar Radiation does NOT effect “Mega-Temp™ Insulation”. Additionally, the light color of this Material would keep the various areas more illuminated with current on-board systems AND Treated Areas of the ship would be much Quieter for the Animals.

The loss of 4,000 Sheep to Heat Prostration is both a Tortuous Manner of Death for the Poor Animals; as well as a Sizable Financial Loss to the Responsible Party(s) involved.

Using the “Active Molecular Insulation, Mega-Temp™” could have saved both the Sheep as well as the Parties involved, financially; Sad.

Birds’ V-Formation Is Partially A Matter Of Self-Orchestrated Timing

News Analysis: Avian Scientists studying the V-Formation Flight Characteristics of Birds have determined that each Bird in formation utilizes the Energy Contribution (EC) of the Bird immediately in front of them. The added wind current of the preceding Bird is used to lessen the Energy Requirements of the subsequent Bird.  The Birds learn where their individual flight position is optimal to attain the preceding bird’s ‘EC’. The “Loser” in the ‘EC’ exchange is the Lead Bird many observers might say.

Since some Scientists maintain that the “Head of the Flock” (Older and Wiser) is not necessarily the Lead Bird of a V-Formation, perhaps “Rank Has Its Privileges” in the Avian World also.

Drivers Should Never “Be In A Fog” When Driving Automobiles In A Fog

News Analysis: Coastal areas, throughout the World, like Abu Dhabi,  may be subject to increasing levels of fog due to Climate Change, many Weather Experts theorize. If so, it behooves ALL DRIVERS of automobiles to use extra caution and to wisely drive at speeds  less than their restricted visibility allows. The unfortunate fact is that globally, “Fog Accidents” usually consist of many vehicles being involved (not just Two).  

Beyond the requirement of driving slower in the Fog, is also the need for Extreme Attentiveness. All of one’s senses have to be focused on the immediate surroundings of the vehicle.  Automobile side windows should be opened a little so Exterior Sounds of approaching vehicles or motorcycles can be heard. Audio should be turned off (for the same reason). Interior dashboard lights should be dimmed for better outside visibility as well.  Most of all, the Driver and any passengers should remain alert so they are not “In A Fog” when driving in the Fog.

A Tortoise can Safely reach its Destination in the Fog; a Hare might Not.

☆ 787 Aircraft Lithium Ion Battery Problems Continue

News Analysis:  Some people think the continued Lithium Ion Battery problems of the Boeing 787 Aircraft susbstantiate the need for a re-examination by Aviation Authorities; This of the probability of fire commencing in such batteries on aircraft. This Carbon/Carbon Composite Aircraft CANNOT tolerate a fire incident without possible serious results. If such an event were to occur it would become a “Nightmare Liner” to its Manufacturer.

Various Aircraft Engineers think the Airframe grossly mis-judged both the Electrical Demands and the Electrical Supplies necessary for this Aircraft when it was designed. Now, existing customers and potential customers might consider how such negative events created by questionable design assumptions might impact their own Airline Flight Operations.  

The inherent frailties of Carbon/Carbon Composite Fuselages for Commercial Aircraft: Delamination, Detonation, and Flammability, which was already known for years by Aircraft Structural Engineers,  must also be reckoned with by Operators.
