Dr G. Venkataraman, Sathya Sai Baba?s Nuclear Boon Companion
2009-09-29 00:18:00 Robert Priddy is the former long-time head of the Sathya Sai Organization in Norway and a retired philosopher in the Social Sciences, University of Oslo. He has written insightfully on the extraordinary, often procrustean efforts of Sathya Sai Baba's head of Puttaparthi propaganda programs to rationalise his beliefs in Sathya Sai Baba. Though not a physical (actually, nuclear) scientist like Dr G. Venkataraman, he has an abiding interest in the sciences, and how a certain variety of scientists, in a great minority but with unfortunate influence far beyond their importance, falsely use science to buttress up their religious claims. The following information may be of particular value for journalistic and scholarly investigators, and also those institutions and agencies which the Sathya Sai cult in many countries attempts to influence - but without portraying their real agendas. For those who may like to hunt and peck among Priddy's writings on G. Venkataraman, I have excerpted fro...

Why Honduras needs a nuclear weapons program
2009-09-22 01:54:00 It's clear that to get any respect from the Obama administration, a nation has to brutally suppress demonstrators, illegally pursue a nuclear weapons program (preferably both), or place nuclear weapons next to staunch allies (article headline should read: "Russia finally stands up to Poland"). All Honduras did was follow its constitution and, at the same time, resist a malevolent America-hater like Hugo Chavez and his stooges across America including, apparently, in the Obama White House. Now, through pressure from the U.S., Honduras has allowed the president who attempted to ram through an unconstitutional referendum back inside the country. Strangely, few, if any leftists cheered when this tiny nation attempted to resist American pressure. TEGUCIGALPA (Reuters) - Honduran de facto ruler Roberto Micheletti said on Saturday the United States has revoked his visa to pressure him to step down and reinstate exiled President Manuel Zelaya, who was ousted in a June military coup...

Despite this, the man who developed the first rocket delivery ...
Excelon (EXC): Powered by nuclear
2009-07-30 14:00:00 "No US utility owns more of them than Exelon (NYSE: EXC), with 17 reactors," says Roger Conrad, who chose the stock as his latest "growth spotlight" in The Utility Forecaster."Carbon free and, above all, paid for, existing nuclear plants are among the most prized assets in the power business."Some 80% of company earnings come from its unregulated generation fleet, 90% of which is nuclear. And it’s by far the best-positioned US utility to ramp up nuclear output."Existing brownfield sites are the only places to build the new reactors Washington wants. Exelon has also been masterful boosting efficiency, running its nukes at 92% of capacity or better for a decade. "And it will increase their capacity 20%, or 1,300 to 1,500 megawatts, by 2017, by upgrading plant turbines."Exelon shares took a hit last year and now sell for barely half their July 2008 high.

And I think that's truly serious.? ?They (nuclear weapons) are not just a bigger pop-gun.

Can the nuclear Siamese twins be separated?
2009-05-20 13:41:00 "Atoms for peace and atoms for war are Siamese twins."- Hannes Alfvén, Swedish physicist and Nobel laureateFrom the very outset of the nuclear age, the challenge has been to facilitate the civilian use of nuclear energy while curbing nuclear weapons. But, as Robert Oppenheimer once observed, ?the close technical parallelism and interrelation of the peaceful and the military applications of atomic energy? make countering nuclear proliferation an especially difficult task. At the heart of the problem is a large overlap between civilian and military applications of nuclear energy, which both depend essentially on the same key ingredient: fissile material.Today the world faces the prospect of a nuclear ?renaissance? ? a potential expansion in the use of nuclear energy worldwide. Energy supply is a critical economic, national security, and environmental issue for our planet and nuclear energy could be a vital part of the energy mix providing energy in quantities needed to decrease our de...

Obama Administration Trying to Sell a Dead Horse -- The Nuclear Non-Prolife
2009-05-07 20:19:00 The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is a dead horse. It doesn't work. Iran is a signatory to the treaty, yet, as everyone with any sense knows, Iran is working to develop nuclear weapons, which is a violation of the treaty. And the so-called "international community" does nothing to stop them. Several Euro powers have been negotiating with Iran for years to have them stop the nuclear weapons development. Yet nothing concrete is done. Several deadlines have been set. When Iran fails or refuses to meet a deadline, a new, later deadline is set, or more concessions are offered by the Euro side. Now Obama, the boy genius and would-be messiah, wants "tough diplomacy" with Iran. Maybe he thinks that he has a magic secret that the seasoned Euro diplomats are unaware of. Yet his administration is against force or the threat of force against Iran's serious violations of the treaty, not to mention Iran's violation of international law by making threats to destroy Israel. So the NPT treaty ...

Castle Bravo, el gran desastre nuclear de EEUU
2009-03-31 13:49:00 El 1 de marzo de 1954 a las 06:45 horas de la mañana, el ejército de Estados Unidos detonó sobre el atolón Bikini, situado en las Islas Marshall, una bomba termonuclear de hidrógeno a la que llamaron Castle Bravo. Fue la primera de su tipo que hicieron explosionar y con sus 15 MT ha sido también la más mortífera que EEUU haya lanzado jamás. Para que os hagáis una idea, se estima que fue del orden de 1.200 veces más potente que las de Hiroshima y Nagasaki. Un segundo después de la detonación se formó una bola de fuego de casi 7 Km de altura visible desde 450 Km de distancia. La explosión creó un cráter de 2 Km de diámetro y 75 metros de profundidad, mientras que la nube con forma de hongo que se generó alcanzó una altura de 14 Km en sólo un minuto. 10 minutos después tenía ya un diámetro de 100 Km y seguía creciendo a un ritmo de 6 kilómetros cada 60 segundos.La explosión fue 2,5 veces mayor de lo que esperaban en las filas norteamericanas, debido a un error de cálculo que cometiero...

Russia orders 70 new nuclear missiles | World news | guardian.co.uk
2008-12-24 02:36:00 More at the guardian.co.uk: “Russia is to increase sharply its production of strategic nuclear missiles, throwing down the gauntlet to the US president-elect, Barack Obama, who would have to deal with the Kremlin's response to US missile defence plans in Europe.A senior government official in Moscow said the Russian military would commission 70 strategic missiles over the next three years. It was unclear whether sea-launched ballistic missiles were included in this figure, but military experts said it could represent up to a fourfold increase on the rate of production of land-based intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs).â€-- This is a frightening development. I do hope we don't get into a military spending contest with the Russians. We can't afford it and I'm not sure it's the best way to go.
