Why Alternative Power Is and Will Remain Useless
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
Here’s a fact you won’t see mentioned in the public policy debate over “alternative” energy: There exists no alternative energy source, no combination of alternative energy sources, and no system of combinations of alternative energy sources that can fully replace a single, coal fired electric plant built with 1930s era technology. Nada. Zero. Zilch. Yet many want to make this group of functionally useless technologies the primary energy sources for our entire civilization.

Pork better for sex than Viagra? (Argentina's president recommends pork as an alternative)
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
BUENOS AIRES (Reuters) – Argentina's president recommended pork as an alternative to Viagra Wednesday, saying she spent a satisfying weekend with her husband after eating barbecued pork. "I've just been told something I didn't know; that eating pork improves your sex life ... I'd say it's a lot nicer to eat a bit of grilled pork than take Viagra," President Cristina Fernandez said to leaders of the pig farming industry. She said she recently ate pork and "things went very well that weekend, so it could well be true."

Germans Unhappy with Alternative Swine Flu Vaccine for Politicians
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
Damage control is the name of the game in Berlin on Monday as politicians rush to deny that they are receiving a better, safer swine flu vaccine than ordinary Germans. The first of 50 million doses arrived in Germany on Monday. But with news breaking over the weekend that top government officials in Berlin will be injected with an alternative vaccine -- one widely seen as safer -- a debate about an alleged two-class medical system has erupted. The controversy centers on an additive included in the vaccine manufactured by pharmaceutical giant GlaxoSmithKline. The additive includes an inactive strain of...

Traditional Lutherans Mull Alternative Path
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
More than 1,200 Lutherans disaffected by the recent vote favoring openly gay clergy have assembled in Indianapolis on Friday to begin creating an alternative fellowship for conservative Lutherans. "We intend to initiate a process that we hope will lead to a reconfiguration of North American Lutheranism," said Paull Spring, chair of Lutheran CORE and the retired bishop of the Northwestern Pennsylvania Synod. "The convocation is for all who care for the future shape of orthodox Lutheranism." Related Link: ELCA Opens Ordination to Noncelibate Homosexuals

Democrat Health Proposals Draw Fire, Institute Offers Alternate Plan
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
As President Obama prepares for his health care speech to a joint session of Congress Wednesday evening, a new report from the Competitive Enterprise Institute calls on the President to acknowledge that America’s health care system is plagued by too much, not too little, regulation. The study concludes that tax preferences for employer-sponsored health insurance, as well as federal and state benefit mandates and pricing regulations, distort the health care market in a way that limits choices for individuals, reduces competition among insurers, and artificially inflates costs for health care services. “Many of the problems with run-away healthcare costs can...

What if the Berlin Wall didn't fall?
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
In 1989, more than 100,000 East Germans took to Leipzig's streets protesting against their hardline communist rulers and demanding an end to repression. The pro-democracy surge spread rapidly, forcing East Germany's leaders to open the Berlin Wall to the West, before it was finally destroyed. It was a seismic moment that sent shockwaves around the world. Now PETER HITCHENS, who was there at the collapse of communism in Eastern Europe and Russia, imagines how it could all have gone terribly wrong, and contemplates the repercussions that would have followed...

Oil Byproducts ~ vs ~ Alternative Fuel Sources
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
The recent discovery of a massive oil field in the Gulf of Mexico has crude oil refinery companies projecting its potential output to be well over 15 billion barrels. If these projections are true the impact of this discovery will be much greater than the actual discovery itself and may have encouraged continued crude oil dependency in the midst of a universal push for alternative fuel sources. It would certainly have a significant impact on crude oil consumption in the United States. According to the US Energy department, Americans consumes roughly 5.7 billion barrels of crude oil annually with reserves...

Switchgrass Benefits are Greatly Underestimated (Biofuels)
Posted by admin / Under Alternative Energy
Energy crop company Ceres has announced that switchgrass can produce substantially more biomass than previously reported and that average yields often used by academics and policymakers to forecast bioenergy economics and environmental benefits may, in fact, be far too conservative. The company reported that yield results from its nation-wide network of field trials showed that average biomass yields among switchgrass seed varieties tested last season were as much as 50% more than the government's projected yields for 2022. Proprietary varieties sold under the company's Blade Energy Crops brand were consistently the highest yielding varieties across multiple trial locations, with average...
