As a matter of free speech I am neutral. Perhaps the meaning of an upside down flag escapes you, It means distress or danger. So I think their use of it in free speech is telegraphing a message about our economy. That the message is lost on you is no surprise.

Mercury Transit on Monday: The Gear You Need to Watch It Safely Mercury will pass across the face of the sun Monday (May 9) in its first such "transit" since 2006 The Mercury transit which begins Monday at 7:42 a.m. EDT (1142 GMT) and ends at 2:42 p.m. EDT (1842 GMT) — is accessible to amateur astronomers, as long as they have the right equipment to view the safely. Never look directly at the sun without protection; serious and permanent eye damage can result.) Here's a brief rundown of the ways you can safely watch the transit, either first-hand or live online.

Right , got you. Can't find a proper argument so you pick on typos of which I make few. Glad you took the time to spell my name correctly with an "s" and not an "x".

OMG you posted a photo of people peacefully protesting....not a gun in sight and no one threatened, no one said I won't be taken alive, but YOU hold them in contempt.

Like I said, your part of the problem.

I am not trying to change your mine. Could care less. I am posting to make people aware of the treats to our national parks and federal lands. I see you as part of the problem since you don't recognize that they broke laws in addition to trespassing and other civil disobedience. I don't recall occupy wall street threatening anyone, do you? But you right we certainly do see this differently.

I asked you a question, no personal attack. You didn't answer. The item you posted has been passed around so often and debunked just as much. I can show you coal strip mines that look exactly like the supposed lithium mine photo you posted. Oh and I suppose oil pipe spills, oil train derailments, oil rig fires, oil tanker spills don't happen. But you're right that dam Lithium sure is a screwed up stuff to mine. What was I thinking??? Let's stop the electric car now it's a silent killer and Soylent Green is made from people!

LOL Pigfoxbaby! look for it in next years Superbowl!

Judge: Plan for restoring Northwest salmon runs not enough SEATTLE — A massive habitat restoration effort by the U.S. government doesn’t do nearly enough to improve Northwest salmon runs, a federal judge ruled Thursday, handing a major victory to conservationists, anglers and others who hope to someday see four dams on the Snake River breached to make way for the fish. In a long-running lawsuit, U.S. District Judge Michael H. Simon in Portland, Oregon, rejected the federal government’s latest plan for offsetting the damage that dams in the Columbia River Basin pose to salmon, saying it violates the Endangered Species Act and the National Environmental Policy Act. It was the fifth time since 2001 that the court has invalidated the government’s plans, and rulings in the case show increasing impatience with federal agencies, including NOAA Fisheries, the Army Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Reclamation. In his 149-page opinion, Simon found that for the past 20 years, the agencies have focused on trying to revive the basin’s 13 endangered and threatened salmon and steelhead runs by restoring habitat without compromising the generation of electricity. “These efforts have already cost billions of dollars, yet they are failing,” he wrote. Meanwhile, he said, federal agencies have “done their utmost” to avoid even considering breaching the Snake River dams — despite strong suggestions to do so by Judge James Redden, who oversaw the case from 2001 to 2011. read more: https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/energy-environment/judge-plan-for-restoring-northwest-salmon-runs-not-enough/2016/05/04/4a59ea48-1257-11e6-a9b5-bf703a5a7191_story.html

The result of such a push is that urban environments will have much cleaner air, lower rates of asthma, quieter cities and fewer petro-chemical spills on the streets. The long term impact of electric cars on the urban settings will be huge. Tesla's Wild New Forecast Changes the Trajectory of an Entire Industry Tesla just took the most ambitious automotive production timeline since the Ford Model T and moved it up two years. The company now plans to produce 500,000 electric cars every year starting in 2018. That's 10 times the number of vehicles it produced in 2015, and enough to ensure that all 400,000 customers who put down a $1,000 deposit on the forthcoming Model 3 will qualify for a significant U.S. subsidy. Talk about doubling down—even the original 2020 goal was considered a long shot by Wall Street. This new target would pledge the carmaker to a faster production growth rate than Ford Motor Co. managed in the early 1900s. That's when Henry Ford pioneered the production line with the Model T, the first mass-market combustion-driven car. A century later, Tesla Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk wants the Model 3 to be its electric grandchild. He's now aiming for close to a million sales by 2020. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-05-04/tesla-s-wild-new-forecast-changes-the-trajectory-of-an-entire-industry

PT if you want facts I can give them and have before but you ignore them or dismiss them away. Lets start with your contention that all this poor woman did was bring her kids to sing for some "peaceful " protesters. When in fact she brought her children to an ongoing ARMED occupation and active CRIME scene. The "peaceful" protesters did in fact threaten US federal employees and posted videos saying they would not give up without a fight. Lavoy Finnicum went on record saying that he would not be taken alive and would rather die before going to prison. In your mind you are confusing this armed occupation with occupy wall street. I watched protesters already handcuffed and sitting on the sidewalk generously seasoned with pepper spray and guess what? They didn't shoot anyone and no one got shot. That is PEACEFUL. By bringing a gun to a peaceful protest you negate the "peacefulliness" (I just made that word up) of the protest and lose credibility when something does happen, which it did. Also, if you protest you have to expect to be arrested at some point. That is the whole idea behind CIVIL disobedience. Clearly they all expected to go home without paying the piper. PT my news feed showed me the article you posted and I decided not to post it because her problems with her children began well before she went to the occupation so i felt it had no bearing on the oregon militia. You are consistently anti-government in your comments and support of anti-federal groups so I expect that none of these facts will actually register with you, but hey "I Tried".

really? did you research that or just re-post something someone upstream from you sent you?

Mercury and Mars Star in Rare Celestial Sights This May This month offers skywatchers two very interesting planetary sights that have not been seen from Earth in at least a decade. On May 9, Mercury crosses in front of the disc of the sun — a transit — that will be visible across all of North America. And then, later in the month, yellow-orange Mars will make its closest approach to Earth since 2005 and will briefly attain a dazzling magnitude of minus 2. (For comparison, the full moon shines at magnitude minus 13, Venus' magnitude is about minus 4 and Jupiter's is about minus 2. The lower the magnitude, the brighter the object.) In early May, Jupiter is the only planet visible at dusk. But as the month progresses, Mars rises progressively earlier after sundown, until it's finally evident low in the east-southeast as evening twilight fades. Following behind Mars is zero-magnitude Saturn, not too far from the ruddy first-magnitude star Antares in Scorpius. At dawn's early light, the eastern sky will be empty, with Venus having disappeared into the solar glare. http://www.space.com/32786-mercury-mars-rare-celestial-sights-in-may.html

Tesla’s bioweapon mode is a stroke of genius for developing markets Tesla today shared details of how effective its particulate filters are. Spoiler alert: They are so good, not only do they clean up the air inside the car, they make the world outside the car cleaner, too. It may not be obvious why this matters: The company is aiming squarely at a very specific type of customer, which may be the company’s way into markets like China and India. http://techcrunch.com/2016/05/02/tesla-bioweapon-mode-for-whiffy-cities/

From Jail, Ammon Bundy Still Promotes Land-Grab Agenda … Ammon Bundy is not only misinterpreting the Enclave Clause, but also overlooking the Constitution’s Property Clause, which further undermines his argument. The Property Clause, outlined in Article 4, Section 3, Clause 2, states the following: “The Congress shall have Power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State.” http://www.triplepundit.com/2016/04/jail-ammon-bundy-still-promotes-koch-brothers-land-grab-agenda/#

Lets be clear NO ONE IS SELLING THEM YET! but I'd test one...

I too would like something simple to get around with but then I'd have to stop every time the engine drops a steaming load on the road, or needs water, or oats. Then there are all those animal activists yelling at you because you're late and you whipped the beast, just a little, but someone saw it and now they are camped on your front lawn hold signs, AND when your done you can't even pack it off to the glue factory oh no, it's a "retirement farm" upstate somewhere.......

OMG King Kong Bundy, if ya had said Bruno Sanmartini I would have know for certain you're ancient. No relation to him or Ted Bundy that i know of...

Yes. Yes, at the end after he was arrested. Only distantly.
