2008-06-23 11:47:00 (It gets a little tiresome trying to come up with plays on words having to do with the number one topic on everyone?s minds, so I just came out and said it ? oh, and by the way, while we?re all bitching about the price of gas, myself included, anybody remember the war?).So President George W. Milhous Bush thus spoke the following here?"If congressional leaders leave for the Fourth of July recess without taking action, they will need to explain why $4-a-gallon gasoline is not enough incentive for them to act."I?ll bet that?s sure to get all of the congressional ?Bush Dogs? to howling; I mean, gee, they just handed FISA to him on a silver platter ? why not just let him gut the Rocky Mountain West while they?re at it to mine for oil in shale so that 35 percent approval rating can shoot all the way up to 36 (as noted here)?And how sad is it that Little Tommy (?Suck.

How to raise fuel prices
2008-06-10 15:15:00 I’ve posted this before, but I think it bears revisiting… here’s how to raise fuel prices should you want to do it… * Create shortages in the oil markets by ensuring domestic oil supplies can never be used. This will force us to get oil from the least stable spots in the world, thus forcing not only higher prices, but forcing us to fund people intent on destroying us. * Regulate domestic suppliers out of business with NIMBY, and enviro-whackjob policy, and regulations and of course, the great leveler, taxes. * Make sure that no new refineries are built over a period 30 years, to meet the need. * Mandate that everyone buys only governmentally mandated formulations of gasoline, thus creating shortages of the ingredients. * Make sure that each area of the country has it’s own mandated formulation, which will strain the already over-strained existing refining infrastructure, thus raising prices. * Create even further price increases by...

Toyota fuel cell Car
2008-06-08 10:02:00 Toyota Motors has said it finally has developed a new zero-emission fuel-cell vehicle that has a longer cruising distance than previous models and can operate in freezing temperatures.Many companies have been working to create a viable zero-emission car running on fuel cells, which produce electricity through a chemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, leaving water as the only by-product.Toyota engineers managed to control the amount of water produced inside the fuel-cell system, which previously interfered with electrical generation at low temperatures.Honda's Eco-Friendly Vehicle >>>The International Energy Agency estimated Friday that nearly a billion electric or fuel-cell vehicles may need to be put on the road as part of an "energy technology revolution" to halve greenhouse gas emissions by 2050.Hope these vehicles gain much popularity and reduce the Green House Effect

Energy and Endurance - Rocket Fuel for Effective Leadership
2008-06-07 22:16:00 Mark Salter, John McCain’s alter ego, co-author, campaign advisor and personal confidant, is a former college roommate. If John McCain should win the presidential election, most political observers agree that Mark will occupy a significant post in his administration. I recently found myself reminiscing on how far he’s progressed in his career. Being a student of talent identification, I locked into thinking about those personal attributes that he displayed 28 years ago that may have contributed to his success in politics and publishing. While a wide assortment of behavioral traits are surely at play, including his first-rate intellectual and communication abilities, he was known to many as a person with a bottomless reservoir of energy and endurance. Mark was clearly driven, and pursued personal goals with unbridled zeal and a single-minded focus. A sure signpost for his energy and endurance levels was a rare ability to function on five to six hours of sleep for extended...

Toyota launches updated version of zero-emissions FCHV fuel-cell vehicle
2008-06-07 00:46:00 Toyota launches updated version of zero-emissions FCHV fuel-cell vehicle Toyota announced on Friday that it has developed a new hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle that is far more advanced than the automaker's previous-generation fuel-cell vehicle. The new system now allows the vehicle — dubbed the FCHV-adv — to travel 516 miles on a single tank of hydrogen and it can operate in conditions as cold as -22 degrees F. Through changes to the vehicle's fuel-cell unit, braking system and a few other tweaks, Toyota engineers were able to improve the fuel-cell's fuel efficiency by 25 percent, according to Automotive News. Those changes combined with a bigger fuel tank and the doubling of storage pressure netted a new range of 516 miles — up from the previous FCHV's (pictured) range of 205 miles. Top speed is a respectable 97 mph. In comparison, Honda's FCX Clarity hydrogen fuel-cell sedan has a range of 385 miles and can operate in conditions from -22...

A crazy Malay bum on PROTES?s July 12th anti-fuel hike rally
2008-06-06 10:00:00 Read from MalaysiaKini yesterday that PROTES is calling upon Malaysians to take part in another massive public rally targeted to be bigger than the infamous BERSIH mass rally held last year. This new mass rally is planned to take place on the 12th of July 2008.Hmm? Do what you want to do PROTES but please put things in perspective before going any further. Fuel price hikes are unstoppable not only in Malaysia but in other parts of the world too. It is something that we have no control whatsoever. Fuel price hikes are caused by external factors that are very much controlled and dictated by influential Masonic figures (ask Mahathir, Abdullah Ahmad Badawi and Anwar Ibrahim about them). Those filthy rich Arabian/Middle Eastern Sheikhs are just stage puppets and they could not do anything to help ease the problem either.Think about it, PROTES. Can you really make any difference with that planned big rally of yours?It would be better off if PROTES work closely with MTUC in their fight to ...

Fuel Prices Hike In India
2008-06-04 18:28:00 The fuel prices in India have finally been hiked by the government. After a long round of uncertainty over this issue and lots of hues and cries from public about increase in the fuel prices, the fuel suppliers in India had started cutting short the supplies of fuel in the market. Their plea was that the rising costs of fuel in the international markets were burning a hole in their reserves and even the hefty subsidy provided by the government was not enough to cover that up. The government has finally announced the price hike of INR 5 per litre of petrol, INR 3 per litre of diesel and INR 50 per LPG cylinder. This hike is expected to have a big impact on the consumers who are already struggling their way through the increasing inflation. The government has been criticized by the opposition parties for this step. This may cause an environment of political instability in India.

Fuel Prices Rise, Worry For Investors.
2008-06-04 14:26:00 Discontent with the quantum of the fuel price hike, the market came under severe pressure as investors dumped shares across the board. Concerns that the hike would accelerate inflation, which is already at worryingly high levels, and that cost pressures could squeeze corporate profits took a toll on sentiment. The government today raised petrol and diesel prices by about 10 per cent on Wednesday, the biggest increase in recent times, to curb losses at its state-run refiners. However, the rise is expected to lift annual inflation to 13-year highs above 9 percent in early June, analysts forecast. Data last Friday showed annual inflation running at 8.1 per cent on May 17, its highest in more than 3.5 years. The hike on petrol and diesel prices was by Rs 5 and Rs 3 a litre respectively, that of LPG by Rs 50 a cylinder while kerosene prices were kept unchanged. The hike will be effective from midnight. The price of petrol, currently Rs 45.5 a litre in Delhi, w...
