Secrets of the universe

Conservation of energy: Total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant over time. You cannot create or destroy energy but entropy does destroy...

Entropy:The second law of thermodynamics is an expression of the finding that over time, differences in temperature, pressure, and chemical potential tend to equilibrate in an isolated physical system. It explains the phenomenon of irreversibility in nature.

Both cannot exist at the same time! In reality conservation of energy should say: The net sum of the universe is 0.0 over time. And -1(+)+1 is the total amount of energy which equals 0.0???
----------------------------------------
Time on earth when compared to time on a GPS satellite flows at a separate rate. Is time real?

Matter is all only energy, E = mc2 . Is matter real?

Energy when combined with an equal and opposite charge of energy cancels out into nothing(Photons are virtual particles which live for a short time off of borrowed energy) mathematically the potential energy is gone, and so are the particles. And electric and magnetic lines of force appear and disappear as well. Heat death of the universe has been theorized to be the end of the universe based on energies canceling each other out. So how was the first potential created out of nothingness? Is everything made of nothingness?

But where you can destroy matter you can also create matter. Antiparticles are created everywhere in the universe where high-energy particle collisions take place. Like in Jupiter's magnetic field right now. Energy may also be created out of nothing. Transformers, optical amplifiers, lasers. This is in theory extra energy although entropy makes it impossible to use for useful work in a machine.

Virtual particles: The energy carried from one winding of a transformer to another, in quantum terms, is carried by virtual photons, not real photons.
-----------------------------------------------
Just as stars have spontaneously emission of every spectrum of radiation, and planets emit infra red radiation why can't any source of static electric fields, or magnetic energy fields, or even gravity fields themselves throughout space emit microwave radiation? Wait a minute lets look at outer space on wikipedia, it says "space" has hydrogen plasma, electromagnetic radiation, and magnetic fields and differences in gravity, wow all of the above! If this is true then the whole evidence for the big bang being background microwave radiation is false, and at the very least is an assumption, and the universe may not have had a real beginning, or end. Which is called the steady state theory invented in the 40's. Other evidence for the big bang is an imaginary 4th dimension that is causing us to expand on the outside of a balloon. Which could also be explained by black holes jetting out virtual particles back into the intergalactic medium, causing expansion between galaxies, just another optical illusion, while new galaxies are being formed all the time which are called protogalaxies made entirely of hydrogen created by high energy particle collisions. Is this any harder to believe than an imaginary balloon, or dark matter, and wimps and machos, and that we're all just made out of vibrating strings??? Well that's what leading physicists contend.
----------------------------------------------
Dark matter: Our galaxies are spinning too fast!!! Just look to the above example of time moving at a different pace between the earth and it's GPS satellites, now replace in your mind the outside edge of the galaxy with GPS satellites. By the way less gravity also may effect time, oh wait a second, looky here I just happened to find another article proving this exact thing called gravitational time dilation! An example of scientists seeing another optical illusion and making assumptions.
----------------------------------------------
Atheist bumper sticker idea: The universe is all just a mathematical equation. Do you think math gives a crap whether you live or die.
-----------------------------------------------
I just was thinking after writing this why if this is actual reality that we have people researching the wrong things. Well if you tell a lie enough it becomes reality! The scientists only get funding for what the government will fund and the government only funds certain things. So we have lots of money going to pseudoscience and no money going towards actual science.

They obviously don't want us in space. Why? Who knows? We can go to the moon and beyond in an instant with modern technology and off the shelf components. Do you know how much of the population are space enthusiasts??? But 100% of our leaders are against space???
Remember Bush saying to the moon mars and beyond? Well the fine print was withing 30 years. Which was all part of the plan because the next president could cancel it all when he got elected in 4 years. So why is it that you can reverse the space decision a president makes but after Nixon did crooked things and got kicked out, nothing he ever did was ever reversed? Duped again by the lying, cheating, and stealing politicians. Constellation canceled.

Nasa Engineers proposed a new rocket that could go to the moon and even work better than the shuttle out of off the shelf parts but The higher ups rejected it for a more expensive new research and development program which was then canceled by Obama. Cheaper faster better rocket rejected for bureaucracy.

Submarines in space should be the new mission. Build a moon base that manufactures reactors for space ships. The space ships designed like submarines. Then get to Jupiter and mine antimatter, then go anywhere with infinite power. This will never happen unless we get rid of every single politician in America, and replace them with the people who care and who do all of the actual work. Business owners, engineers, real scientists, visionaries, doers not talkers. Which will never happen ever.

Scientific method

The scientific method is as follows, in summary, in sequence of the process.
  1. Observation
  2. Hypothesis
  3. Prediction
  4. Test
Example:
  1. The sun seems to rise a lot in the mornings.
  2. I hypothesize that the sun rises every morning.
  3. I predict it will rise tomorrow morning.
  4. Your prediction is proven the next morning when you test to see if the sun actually comes up.
Also these results have to be reproducible by other scientists, which is why ghosts have not been proven to exist yet.

Spontaneous Emission is Free Energy

In my previous theory: Spontaneous emission is my theory of how LED's work and explains cosmic background radiation, and how the insides of planets are always hot when big enough. And how stars produce visible light as spontaneous emission that is so hot that it has a side effect of fusion of hydrogen into helium.

My new theories are that spontaneous emission is how lasers work, and photons have zero entropy, and electrons must also retain the speed of light, and spontaneous emission is free energy.

Well known fact: Lasers create free light energy.

Light may have infinite energy but at least has absolutely zero loss of energy. Einstein noticed that the speed of light never changes and that only time can change which means that when light slows down in certain substances it will speed up again as it leaves that substance. Also as light passes a high gravitational field and slows down it will then speed up again as it leaves that high gravitational field.
Another related theory is that electrons have the same constant speed that photons do. So when utilising the thermo electric effect of passing through 2 differing metals, the temperature decreases on one side of the junction because the electrons speed up at that junction and therefore time has to change and cooling is a side effect.

With light as the energy source for a laser, the light will act like a pump while lasing. As the atomic energy level rises each time a photon passes by the atom, the atom will emit more light at that new higher energy state. This is lasing, or as I call it spontaneous emission. One of two things may be happening here. Either the spontaneous emission happens continuously creating free energy, as long as any atom retains a high electric charge state. A test of this would be a high static field in a superconductor, emitting light with no loss of electrical charge. Or conservation of energy would probably say that as a photon is created then the electric charge will decrease. But in the end it may be that photons actually are created for free, which is just as far fetched as how photons have zero loss of energy anyway. In the end, what are you creating? An oscillation or a particle?
The reason why the visible light of a statically charged object isn't hot, and the inside of a star is so hot, is because it is extremely dense visible light in a star. And a side note is that the light energy just excites the atoms into being even hotter. And the vibration of the heat in the atoms makes an oscillating charge between the atoms and electrons which produces even more light as it oscillates between higher and lower atomic charge density.
A fun thought is that if you were in the center of the sun somehow, you would be able to see the brightest light ever in all directions, if you weren't blinded and burnt to a crisp.
How has our planet had a hot core for billions of years while never slowing down at all in core temperatures. Is this just no loss of energy like super conductors but translated to planetary core temperatures, or in other words planets just naturally have no entropy because they are a closed system and somehow the infra red radiation isn't fully emitted into space or that the sun adds any lost energy. This would be a tough balancing act to get to work to make a habitable planet, especially for planets further from the sun that do emit tons of infra red radiation, such as jupiter. Or is it true that spontaneous emission counter acts any entropy that could ever occur. I still know that it will be proven that Venus has an active core still, by virtue of it being the same size as earth alone.
In essence, my new theories just affirm my previous theory.

Stone house


This is what a perfect world would look like.

A house made out of stone, with air flow built in. Like Stonehenge.

An energy machine that can make energy anywhere and never break.

A community food machine that can pump out cookies or something from ingredients.

A water machine in every home that condenses water from the air, with a faucet attached.

A mode of conveyance that uses infinite energy tech, to fly anywhere.

Lava House

I just added an idea to whynot.net called "lava house" under "home" you can see it here.
Later added,6/11/09: With powerful enough lasers you would be able to melt rock into magma in a constant stream. But that's decades away. For now you can use a blow torch, maybe one that uses hydrogen if you need to create the fuel from scratch because of rising energy prices in the future. In fact you may just elect to melt slabs of rock together at the seems to make them water tight, like on the roof.

New house design for 2009

My current most well thought out simplest house is a cave house. I've come to this conclusion for the following reasons:
  1. We can! We are the only species on earth capable of making their own cave out of rock.
  2. Our planet has been around for a long time, and that naturally gives our planet lots of mountain ranges that have formed over eons, so lots of places to make cave houses.
  3. High supply, and low demand means mountainous terrain is CHEAP!
  4. There is no need for air conditioning, AT ALL, EVER AGAIN, even if it's solid state and never needs repair, or energy to run.
  5. Once you build it, this house will be there for eternity. Site: Cave paintings.
  6. We have the tools necessary like homemade explosive charges and electric blast cord, and hammer and chisel and jackhammer, and generators to power it, and pick axe, and some rocks are easy to chisel out.
  7. The only fire possible is from the contents of the house.
  8. It's weather proof other than water leaking from fissures(just use silicone).
  9. There is constant wind power right outside the door, because along the sides of cliffs and buildings there is a natural chimney effect(Bernoulli's principle) as air flows across the top of a cliff or building, air will travel up the sides from the bottom.
  10. You'll have the biggest house around(mountain sized).
My last house design was "New technology in a futuristic cabin".

Phone, Internet, and TV: "wireless broadband mobile internet". If you can get cellphone reception where you are. Also see my free cable post. And have a Google android for house phone, if it can connect to the wifi of the mobile internet, and a go phone for emergencies.
Food: Be on a south facing part of the mountain, and grow food nearby, or collect from the forest. and have a road to a nearby town also.
Dishes: Make pottery from self separated clay, which you get from the way you make adobe, and fire them in a self made oven/kiln. Making adobe: First you dig a hole, then you fill it with water, then you fill the hole back in with dirt, and then mix it up. What you will end up with once the hole dries up in 1 day, is clay that has settled at the top and sand that has settled at the bottom of the hole. Now you just skim the clay off of the top, and mix it with sand in the proper portions to make adobe. This is useful for a structural and heat retentive component of a house. You can also include hay mixed in with it, acting as a binding material so it won't crack, for structural adobe. Adobe is also useful when making a rocket stove.
Lighting, Cooking, Heating, Fridge, Transportation: All electric and solid state.
Toilet, Shower,Clothes washing: Toilet is the outdoors (bury it for no smell, also test a post hole digger). Shower the same way as Alaskans, a rag and bucket of soapy water. Bucket of soapy water and plunger for clothes.
Electric: Wind power enough to fill the batteries. Or just solar power.
Income: A home business of some kind like as seen in my home business post, so that you won't have to commute to work.
Road access:
Build your own dirt gravel road out of the chips left over from excavation.
Excavating: Use a pick axe for soft rock and osmocote and chemical fertilizer for hard rock. Video

This would be one of the most fun houses ever also because first of all you'd be living like the Flintstones and it would be just like when you used to build forts as a kid however precarious they were. Start out with just a cave and whenever you feel you're lacking anything, just add a new amenity to make yourself more comfortable, with all the spare time you have from not working 8 hours a day to pay a mortgage.

Drive-By-Wire, AC Induction Motor, Ultra-Capacitor, GPS

Steer by wire is where you make one tire spin faster than the other in order to steer. This eliminates any mechanical connections that ICE's(internal combustion engines) have to use. This is achieved by having a separate electric motor inside of each wheel. Also you can add four wheel drive for more traction on slippery roads.

Steer-by-wire (A.K.A. Drive-by-wire) is:
  • More energy efficient
  • Less maintenance(almost none)
  • Reprogrammable for different steering preferences.
  • Can also be 4 wheel drive
The AC induction motor was invented by Nicola Tesla, and is still the best electric motor to this day. It has the highest torque of any electric motor, in fact even higher torque than a Ferrari's ICE(See:Tesla roadster). It's maintenance free because it has no commutator. Is energy efficient, due to it going faster and further than any other motor hooked to the same battery.

The AC induction motor is:
  • The highest torque motor
  • The most energy efficient motor
  • Maintenance free
  • Except it still needs AC energy to operate, which makes a complicated circuit that's hard for an amature to build. But it's still a solid state circuit(no moving parts) and shouldn't break when built right.
The ultra-capacitor made by EEStor will hopefully be made by 2009. The smartest people in the world are investing in it. If this technology is made then it will replace gasoline. We would charge it at night like a cell phone, and it would store enough energy to go 250 miles on a single charge and at 80 MPH.

Ultra capacitors are:
  • Solid state(will outlast you)
  • Most efficient conversion of energy into moving a car
  • Able to go further and faster than a car if you add more capacitors
  • Lighter weight than any battery
  • Able to hold more energy than any battery
  • Made of non-toxic eco-friendly(green) materials
  • Would also be the portable energy source of everything in the future
GPS is good for finding direction, but can also replace old fashioned speedometers(See: speedometers on wiki). They work as a speedometer by updating location ever second for a more accurate speedometer than the electronic or mechanical speedometers. But they also can be made as solid state and built into the car. Also they will be cheap one day if they're in every future car that is eventually going to the junk yard.

GPS is:
  • A better speedometer
  • Solid state(won't break)
  • Extremely cheap one day
  • A replacement for maps
  • Low energy usage
  • Programmable
  • Cheap soon
But in reality we still need to get beyond using cars. Because cars need an infrastructure of roads, which are not eco-friendly.

Helicopters are the way of the distant future when we finally invent an easy to use and build version of one. The only moving parts in a helicopter are the rotors(rotors may need to be tilted in some designs). Making an electric helicopter should be possible with Ultra capacitors. When you need to get from point A, to point B, there's no more need to ask for directions because you just go in a straight line there(B-line?). Also with drive-by-wire(All electric, programmable controls) it may be easier to program the controls so an average Joe can learn to fly a helicopter. Also no more need for infrastructure like roads or even runways. The only thing to worry about is down drafts in certain weather conditions. On the billions being spent on public mass transit infrastructure, you could instead spend it all on a fleet of helicopters.

Helicopter's are:
  • Very time efficient when travelling on a schedule
  • In no need of any infrastructure(make them now, use them now)
  • Easy to navigate
  • Possibly capable of having the controls programmable, so that anyone can drive-by-wire
  • Maintenance free except for rotor bearings
  • Not good when you need to watch out for down drafts, and other crash hazards.

Antimatter

Known reactions that create antimatter: There are none yet, except for particle accelerators.
There are some theories though, and I will post them as I find them.
The best reaction would be a one step reaction. Find a material and mix it with another material in the perfect environement and it will make large quantities of antimatter. That is the ideal circumstance.
It's not very far fetched to imagine this when there are fusion reactions that transform particles into different particles, and that there are chemical endothermic reactions and exothermic reactions. Looking at the real properties of barium titanate makes you question what can and cannot be done theses days also.

One theory has to do with the material known as helium 3 that we can acquire on the moon, but if we used that for a stable fusion reaction and put lots of money into fusion research then we may well find new reactions that have byproducts which include antimatter.

The current way of making antimatter is to accelerate electrons until they collide and create a new negatively charged anti-hydrogen atom. But there may be other more efficient and predictable methods that we may find in the future that can be scaled to mass produce antimatter. As long an fusion energy works and gets funding for new nuclear physics experiments beyond fusion.

Antimatter occurs naturally in the van allen belts of earth and also at gas giants like jupiter. See: "antimatter" on wiki under "cost".And if we can somehow find a way to store the antimatter(encapsulated in neutrons) and use it, then we may have free energy if the antimatter can be reused based only on its "potential energy" which has reverse effects in the physical universe making new electrical and particle aplications and experimants possible with this new material of totally alien properties. See: "magic rectangle"

Also see my other antimatter post.
And "The final revolution is...".

And The Universe Says...

Listen to the universe, and let it be your guide, and it can never lie to you or malfunction or be incorrect. Humans always have the potential to be wrong or corrupt, though. Like the legend of steel in the first Conan movie. The one thing that you can always trust and count on is your sword, or I say, the universe in general.

If the universe disagrees with you then that means you have to change your approach to life. And if someone says to you “Hey you can’t do things that way” just reply “Well the universe tends to disagree with you.”

  • When you have a device break, then the universe is saying that you designed it wrong and that‘s why it broke. Or when the device is obsolete, then the universe is saying that you made the entire device wrong to begin with. A well designed device should last longer than you will live to be, because the human body is already a device that lasts that long. No upgrades should be needed if it’s was ever a well designed device to begin with.
  • When you have to make more inventions just to make an old invention work, like for cars to work you need to invent roads, and you have to pay more for extra inventions and it breaks more from more moving parts. The universe says, go with a better technology that performs the same function, like helicopters instead of cars. Also bicycles need a pump and tires and chains and roads. Vehicles are only for going long distances away from home anyway, so maybe you don't need them except for emergencies, if you like your home.
  • If you can burn music and give copies to people for free, and you can make cheap knock offs for free, the universe is saying that information has no value in the real universe, if it can be copied for free. Selling information is what the media industry is. So why is information monopolized, or kept secret from others anyway?
  • The universe works on the honor system, as if it’s natural to think that nobody would ever possibly need to do anything bad to other people. So there’s no rule in the universe about killing, or being punished for doing anything bad. As if telling you that there’s no point to killing or hurting other people in the real world. And if you know what you’re doing, there’s no reason to ever have bad in your life at all. Killing people is only a human invention, and if you're by yourself, the universe's honor system rule works perfectly.
  • If houses cost 500,000$ and need constant upkeep and updating, then maybe you should have designed the house differently. The universe is saying that you’re throwing your efforts and money down the drain, when the house is outdated in 10 years, and also requires constant maintenance. Everything is makeshift when it comes to houses these days to either save money or be like everybody else. Why not be different and design a house well for once, so that it doesn't need upkeep. See: R-value in Alaska post.
  • Rules are a human invention, and therefore have to be enforced by humans, because the universe won’t enforce the human made rules(value of things, taxes, killing is wrong, except genocide of animals is fine). I’d rather listen to the universe's rules than to human's rules. In fact just listening to the universe in general is better that to humans. The universe is never wrong or lies, but humans always have the potential to be wrong or lie. Rules are just a way of people having control over other people, and the universe never controls humans, we control the universe, utilizing knowledge. Also the universe is impartial, for no fear of any hidden agenda, or ulterior motives, or judging you for anything.
  • Money only exists to be stolen. If everybody you traded with was family then you wouldn’t need currency but instead just share, based on equal effort of work days. The universe says that if you put value on things, then it will have value worth stealing. The universe is showing you this by how things keep getting stolen, and how sometimes people get hurt just so that a criminal can steal something of value.
  • The same is true for drugs, the universe shows that it has no rule against using drugs on yourself. It is only when we made a rule that it was wrong to take drugs that criminals started making money at it and we suddenly had the highest public crime rate in history, all because it was made illegal by humans. Also the facts that are shown to you through case studies about drugs, are the real world trying to tell you not to take them, because of the addictive consequences. If only those drug addicts had listened to reality, they would never have become chronically addicted. The same is true but in a less severe way, about caffeine and coffee addiction.
  • You shouldn’t have to work more than animals in order to make a living, unless you are genetically inferior to animals(sweat glands, eat too much, need house heating, need to cook food, and make tools.). Giraffes are the perfect example of living the perfect life without any worries or work. So the universe is telling us “that’s who you have to beat, when it comes to lifestyle.”
  • Risk reward, is a good way of making some decisions. The less liability you have in life, if any at all, the better. Liability is risk, or when something is liable to happen eventually. You should live a life with maximum reward and minimal risk. This is the universe rewarding you for being smart, and using statistics, and averages, and facts.
  • The government of America is the best one ever invented, but the truth of the matter is that it’s not the best working government possible. This is shown by congress constantly having to struggle to make new rules all of the time. As if people are constantly trying to fix our system. And the universe is saying “you shouldn’t have to keep fixing something if it already works.” maybe we need a government that has no rules and no money and no power, because that’s the way that the actual universe functions. As long as we can research a way to make this new type of civilization work. It's bad enough that our banking system is based on faith and any political office election is based on faith that that person tells the truth. Without faith our entire system will inevitably fail, one day.
  • The best design is one that allows for an imperfect or chaotic universe. Not a design that requires perfection, all of the time, in order to function properly. An example is when designing a sidewalk, you lay concrete in sections or separate slabs, for expansion and contraction in the elements, so that the concrete never cracks. The universe hinting at the reasons behind it cracking all the of the time before, in previous improper designs.

So all in all, ignoring the universe, and facts, only leads to pain and suffering, but listening to the universe, and reality, always only leads to happiness. Also design things based on facts, and reality will show that it lasts forever, and you won’t have to maintain it, or replace it, or change it. Live with the universe not against it. Live within reality, not outside, in magic land. Don’t ever listen to the majority without questioning it. The majority said that there was no housing bubble, also the majority said “buy and hold” right before the “.com” bubble.

In order for good or bad to exist humans have to create it. Examples of good things: GPS, glasses, medical, free to run electric car(since we already have roads), solid state devices, computer‘s, and computer search engine, hunting rifles, good tasting food, the list goes on and on. Examples of bad things: arguing, stealing, killing, sadness.

So it’s a choice between creating your own good in your life or your own bad in your life. People may only choose to have a bad life because of illogical emotions and no research into improving their own life, or alternately just letting other people make decisions for them. Never listen to people(either an elected official, or the majority consensus), unless actual facts confirm what they say, only listen to reality, and the subtle messages of the universe. The universe says that making intelligent decisions based on obvious facts, is the only pathway to have a good lifestyle.

And religion actually has no useful answers to life in the end, and what the universe would say about religion is “why would you need a religion to tell you how to live your life, when you have the laws of physics to do that for you already.”

The true virtue of a person is only human opinion.

Now if only, one day, we could see beyond our own debilitating and primitive human psychology.

R - Value In Alaska

The wiki page I got this info from was"R-Value (insulation)" which is otherwise called heat resistivity. Not to be confused with U-Value which is otherwise called heat retention.

The best spray foam is Closed cell polyurethane spray foam. And a close 2nd is open cell polyurethane spray foam. These are all better than wood as an insulator

The following R-values are average per inch, based on available results:

Straw Bales: R-1.45
Wood Panels: R-2.5
Open Cell Polyurethane Spray Foam: R-3.6
Closed Cell Polyurethane Spray Foam: R-5.5
Silica Aerogel: R-10 (Best possible insulation for a window material. Hope it's available someday on the mass market.)

So if living in Alaska it would be wise to spend a tiny bit more to use spray foam in your cabin instead of wood. Spray foam is also easier to work with and can be sprayed onto a geodesic dome, with shingled plastic for water proofing utilizing "grip clips". The floor of cabins in Alaska are often dirt floors, but before installing any type of floor, just prevent flooding of a that floor in the geodesic dome, by halfway burying a solid water barrier material sheet around the perimeter of the dome.

You could also add heat retention(A.K.A. U-Value) to the already well insulated structure by putting moss or dirt on top of the geodesic dome. This is free, and only adds to the insulation quality, and also the natural woodsy look. But just spray foam or air foam should be enough insulation. And fire proof it all with a stucco coating.

Most cabins in Alaska are very small also because of the hassle of collecting more wood to heat bigger sized cabins. So a small one room cabin is normal in Alaska which means the cost of spray foam would be minimal, from such a small surface area to be insulated. Just be sure to make a sturdy geodesic dome out of hardwood(bamboo?) or metal bars so that the house can't collapse ever.

But there's nothing stopping you from making the same type of house in Florida with a total construction cost of about 300$. In other words anything that they do in Alaska to live independently can also be done anywhere else in the U.S.. But you would have to consider an outhouse and how to clean clothes. I discuss all of these considerations in my post called "permanent fort or camp". Also other posts are useful in constructing an independent homestead like the artificial aquifer post, and also earlier posts like the utopia now post, for info on an ideal community(Which is not possible). Or my old version of an independent homestead was the utopia list post, for more personal independence ideas, however outdated they are. But for diagrams of devices go to "New house design pics".

An Unbreakable Code Or Encription

There are large scale public encryption systems for things like telephones, but then there are small scale encryption forms that are totally unbreakable. Either for top secret need to know basis conditions, or just for fun as a novelty for any kids in the family that want to play spy games.

I will focus on useful small scale encryption because not many people control an entire populations communication technology.

The first types of encryption were simple "substitution, transposition cryptography" Here's a cryptanalysis link that explains these types of encryption in more detail. These types of cryptography use "keys" which are written on a paper to be given to the person who will receive the encoded messages. The paper looks like blocks of letters and numbers written on a piece of paper, they now use up to 64 blocks in all, as the entire key which is harder to solve. But this form of encryption is still beatable by computers.

The kryptos statue at the CIA uses the above system in part of the statue, and all of those messages in the statue have already been decoded. But in the last coded section of the staute there are too little characters to find a proper key to figure out the message. I think that in this last section it uses the following type of key for encryption, which the creator has stored in a secret location, maybe even burried somewhere to never be possible to be deciphered.

The one type of encryption that can never be cracked by a computer though is very simple. Get a book of any kind, there have been hundreds of millions of books written out there, so this shouldn't be hard. Then on each page under the page number you write a message in the margins or you highlight words or a word on that page. That is your key and to decipher it you get the page number or title or topic of the page sent in a message and then turn to that page and decode the entire message repeating that step. And because it is a unique copy of that book which exists nowhere else in the universe, then the only way to decrypt the message is with that unique book alone. This idea came from the show "Prison break" that had the bird book. simple but effective.

Also when making a password for any website I find it easiest to remember and create if I put 2 words together that don't normally go together and then put a number somewhere in the password sequence. Any password no matter what it is can still be cracked by a computer, but unless you are a prime target like a rich person or an elected official then they usually won't come after you. Just never give out any personal info in emails no matter where the email says it's from. Because companies never ask for personal info in emails.

Vortex Tube And Pulse Jet

I ran across this article while researching something else on wikipedia. It was about Vortex tubes. Then I thought "How can I get one of these". So I put that into the "search all categories" of Ebay. And there it was. Also I found a link to a cheaper place to buy them at the bottom of that ebay page.
This invention may have room to be improved upon, seeing as how they may not understand 100% of the physics behind it yet. The main questions being, how do you improve efficiency compared with ordinary A/C, and why doesn't it work as well on liquids, as on gasses?
My very first theory on this is that the more energetic less dense and therefor lighter hot air can more easily escape the center of the vortex(heat rises). One way of testing this could be by putting two dissimilar gasses into the vortex and seeing if the heavier gas comes out on the cold side.
Another application of this technology, may be to separate dissimilar gasses without the need to liquefy the gasses to separate them, like they do to manufacture pure nitrogen and oxygen.
Even if you can still create cryogenic temperatures with vortex tubes in series.
But they make noise so just have a muffler type thing on one end to not have noise if wanted to use it in a house. But if you wanted a house cooling system you should use the new" Johnson thermo-electrochemical converter system".
If you put compressed hydrogen into it at the right pressure it would come out as a flame thrower.
Youtube vortex tube

Also see: Pulse jet engine, or Youtube pulse jet, This is so cool that it's funny. See: Mythbusters for finding cool things funny.

Also see: Tesla turbine, or youtube it, if you haven't heard of it yet. This uses the principle of the "coanda effect". Which is also why wind over the top of a chimney will suck air out of the chimney.

Also see: Venturi effect, which is utilized in pulse jets. youtube it for some more visual explanations. This is also called Bernoulli's principle. I think all of these and the theory of flight are more easilly understood by all being seen as variations of the "Coanda effect". Because if a wing was shaped like the cross section of a frisby it wouldn't fly, and Bernoulli's principle says it would fly. See this link for a very good explaination of the theory of flight.
Bernoulli's principle is easilly remembered as: Faster moving air has lower air pressure.
The way a chimney works is also explained better by the coanda effect than bernoulli's principle, because if air in the chimney is attracted to air from a breeze above the chimney then the air in the chimney will be impelled to move in along with the moving air above the chimney from the inherent attractive forces. So the kinetic energy of the moving air is imparted into the chimney's air forcing the chimney air to move in the same direction, from the coanda effects force of attraction. This is the same with all of the ball and wind tests, and the 2 can test. All being explained better by the "Coanda effect".

Prank: Use bernoulli's principle or the coanda effect to TP someones house in seconds with the use of a leaf blower. See video.

Also see: Dredging, or Suction dredge often used in gold mining, which uses a solid state "y shaped" joint and the principle of suction. This is the same as how chimneys work but more specialized Y shape for dredging specific purposes.

The following picture is an improved wind turbine design.

Later added: I now am pretty sure that the coanda effect and van der waals forces are the same effect in different forms. I presume that fluids like air are attracted to solid surfaces(because solid surfaces electromagnetic charge is constantly pointed in one direction to attract free flowing fluids opposing charges) by electromagnetic forces at the atomic level in the same way as gecko skin is attracted to any solid surface. So in theory the "Coanda effect" which better describes the theory of flight than bernouli's principle, is actually an electromagnetic effect at the atomic level that is one and the same as van der waals forces.
Gravity could be an electromagnetic macro scale effect, but there is no solid theory or info supporting a connection yet.

Actual Hoverboard And Real Flying Car

I recently added a post to an idea submission site called "www.whynot.net", of how a Hover board may be possible using ion wind technology, follow the ion wind link for wikipedia on the subject.
The following is the post that I submitted:

I recently saw on the show Mythbusters on their "anti-gravity episode" that they used a technology called a "lifter" which was able to float in the air by means of an ionic wind(NOT Antigravity). Also I recently heard about a solid state fan that uses the same ion wind technology, and which can also outperform regular fans in weight and power. So theoretically if you were able to somehow get enough lifting energy from ion wind then you could make either a toy car that floated around on ion wind, or you could make a full sized hover board. But in fact if enough power was possible someday you may even have a rocket pack version, to get from place to place in the future. The draw backs of this technology are:(1)It may not have enough power to lift a person in a compact device.(2)It uses very high voltages(20,000V's). (3)It has a bi-product of Ozone gas from the corona discharge used to make the ion wind. Also you'd need to have DC to DC step up voltage circuit that some technical people might know, which is also in a portable unit along with the battery. But also stabilizing the platform has to be worked out, in some kind of self stabilizing arrangement of electro-aerodynamic pumping.

artZ, Sep 12 2008

Other useful info is to search solid state fan, and electro-aerodynamic pumping. I also theorize that with high enough energy you could make a full sized vehicle float a few inches above the ground.

But if you wanted the vehicle to fly it would be a different technique. If the top of the vehicle was the sharp emitter electrode and the body of the craft was the blunt collector electrode the ion wind would be forced to travel downward around the craft, or from top to bottom, creating upward lift, using the "coanda effect". Here's a link that explains the coanda effect and the theory of flight better through actual simple experimentation. But in short when air is pulled downward to travel along the surface of the craft, by the flow of ions, the equal and opposite reaction of pulling air down also pulls the body of the craft up. The actual shape of the craft is only important for horizontal aerodymanic flight and has nothing to do with lift force. So the only lift force is from the coanda effect created by the ion wind which was itself created by a very powerful DC electrical generator, inside of the craft.
The following is from wikipedia under corona discharge:
Corona discharge usually involves two asymmetric electrodes; one highly curved (such as the tip of a needle, or a small diameter wire) and one of low curvature (such as a plate, or the ground). The high curvature ensures a high potential gradient around one electrode, for the generation of a plasma.

Moving the craft side to side is a different matter though. Which I don't have a solid theory for yet. But it may use the same ion wind technology, with highly charged movable capacitors located inside the craft. Used to offset the charge on one side of the craft making the air flow alter, or reconfigure around that spot, on that side, which would make that side move forward from a change in ion wind flow around it creating a pressure differential. But no solid math that works for that theory yet.

Also the source of power needs to be large which we currently don't have the energy technology for yet other than nuclear. It may be possible to have high voltage Alternating Current also, but because of the alternation it would only have pulses of ion flow. This may be useful if it is true that at high enough frequencies(20,000hertz or above) current then cannot flow through the human body, because of the human body acting as a resistor at that high of a frequency.

But also on the problem of high energies being dangerous to humans, as long as you're suspended in the air and your body doesn't touch the ground then your body won't conduct the energy to the ground and therefor no electric shock. The power line maintenance crews know this trick, and use it all the time(See: "High voltage" under "power lines", on wiki). So always jump onto highly charged objects to not be touching the ground at the same time as you're touching the charged vehicle or object.

Also in making the craft one solid seemless peice of metal for no moving parts or chance of breaking and also for aerodynamics, you would still need some way of entry into the craft. Superfluidity to go straight through the walls of the craft would work, but has never been substantiated as a real technology yet. But suposedly high enough electrical charge mimics the same properties of a plasma(high amount of electrons) and maybe even superfluidity as well. It's just an unsubstantiated hypothesis at this point though.

I do know that at high enough voltages though you get an effect that mimics superconductivity, with very low electrical loss. Because at high voltages the electrons have high potential energy and are static charges and therefore since they are non-moving electrons they have less wire to run into and get resistance from. But then of course it may be releasing that stored energy in the form of photons from the ambient glow that high voltages naturally create. By the way that's how you light the inside of the craft, in order to never have to replace lightbulbs. I call this effect "spontaneous emission".

I used to think that high (+/-)static charges were the same as gravity and anti-gravity, because they both share so many similar characteristics, but now that I have the above verifiable theory, I no longer think that anti-gravity is involved with UFO's, and instead think that it is ion wind. But for space travel they have to use something different, which I no longer have a good theory for. Even though static electricity still shares most of the same physical properties as gravity. There's just no solid evidence or theory for anti-gravity yet. So for now it anti-gravity is still an unsubstantiated hypothesis for space flight.

The only substantiated UFO picture that I've ever heard of is the one that was on the cover of time magazine in the 50's and still cannot be disproved or disputed. It was called the mcminnville photos, so that is the design of craft that I got this theory from. Also on wiki.

News To Keep Track Of, For Further Advancements.

Type the following into "google news" search engine, if the links don't work, and read the latest developments. Also if you bookmark this post it's a turn key way to follow the news if these topics interests you.

Optical memory or optical data storage or wiki: Will lead to denser data storage

Optical computers
: Faster more powerful less need for cooling computers. Watch light wave logic stock.

"Super laser" or "National ignition facility" or "(NIF)" or "Super Marx generator" : For new infinite energy or space travel or ray guns, etc.

"John Kanzius" : This is for the cancer cure of the Kanzius machine. Which is now getting funding for further testing. Also see: His organizations website.

"EEstor" Or, "Zenn Cars" : For developments in ultracapacitor technology.

"Mimic Resveratrol" : For new anti aging medications and how they work is currently being studied. We may live as long as the Japanese soon.

"Biometrics" : If and when they discover a type that you cannot forge, then identity theft will be a thing of the past, as banks adopt this, as well as grocery stores.

"Nuclear Fusion" : This technology is currently being developed by the top scientists in the world for infinite clean energy. But this is "vapor ware" that they may or may not have a breakthrough in for a while.

"OLED" : This is going to be the next type of TV and also lighting for every room in the house and will be very, very cheap to buy, eventually. Invest in GE or Fraunhofer Institute, for OLED lighting, for dividends not for growth. This market will be massive when the tech is here. Also see a prediction post.

"Solid state fan", or "Electro- aerodynamic pumping" : This is a new technology that may invest in if possible, and which may one day be used for hover boards, or rocket packs, if enough thrust is possible. This is the same technology as "lifter" technology that is shown on youtube, and which the "Mythbusters" proved is NOT anti-gravity(See: Antigravity episode).

"Active Building Envelopes(ABE)": A new theoretical form of passive temperature moderation over any structure except the windows. made out of thin film solar panels combined with thin film peltier effect materials. Being made at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI). And the National Science Foundation is supporting them.

"Artificial gecko hairs or skin" or "gecko tape": Huge advances are being made in this field.

"Solid State Drive(SSD)" : Made out of flash memory drives and is solid state and efficient, but for now it is very expensive.

"Johnson Thermo-Electrochemical Converter System", or Google it for more news/info : This I found in Vol.185 ,No.11 issue of popular mechanics. Its a solid state thermoelectric generator, and may be more efficient than a sterling engine. Or the most efficient thermoelectric conversion possible (or "ideal" efficiency)within the second law of thermodynamics. If this is as compact, and light weigt, and compatible as solar panels then it could make a solar heat powered car!!

"Acoustic fridge", or "Thermoacoustic refrigeration" : Currently cost $10,000, but hopefully one day will replace the modern fridge when mass produced because they are solid state with no moving parts, and are quiet, and efficient, and eco-friendly.

On youtube look for:

"Variant edition" Or, "Comicbook reviews" : To save you the trouble of buying and reading bad comics(Sort the videos by date added). Also go on "myspace darkhorse comics"(free comics)

Gypsum, Limestone, and Soil

Gypsum when heated to 150 °C becomes calcium sulfate hemihydrate,
Then this material is called "Plaster of Paris", and when mixed with water it reforms into Gypsum.

Limestone(A.K.A. Calcium carbonate)when heated to 825°C becomes calcium oxide(A.K.A. Burnt lime, or Quick lime) this new material is called cement, and when mixed with water and carbon dioxide turns back into calcium carbonate, or limestone.

Soil is composed of Sand, Silt, and Clay. Sand is the largest sized particle contained in soil, Silt is the second largest sized particle contained in soil, and clay is the smallest sized particle contained in soil. Clay and Sand when mixed together with water in a ratio of about 30% clay and 70% sand, and are allowed to dry are now known as the material "Stucco".

When these 3 materials are mixed together along with clay minerals you now have what is call "Portland Cement" which is comprised of ( concrete, mortar, stucco ) and add water this new mix is stronger than the previous individual materials by themselves. But there is a special technique to producing Portland cement, and a special ratio of each component substance.

Fuzzy Philosophical Equations

Are a new thing I just got into. The purpose is to make your life easier by using the equations as a way to calculate happiness or success. An example is: Fun = Time x Money. Which I am using to decide if I should work or instead have fun. Most people that work have no time and only 2 weeks of vacation determined by their boss and also it is very rare to make more money per month than you spend per month. Thus Jobs = (-)Time x (+/-) Money. Unless you're your own boss and rich. Which I myself may be, at the end of this year.

I also predict that one day certain psychology based versions of these insights into the human thought process that I call "Fuzzy philosophical equations" may one day be adapted to making artificial intelligence programming either possible, or just more compact and quantifiable.

The After Life

It most likely doesn't exist because there is no evidence in any way supporting an afterlife in the scientific world. Even if you see a ghost, who's to say that it's human.
But lets just assume for the moment that there is an after life. If you died and were somehow still aware of your surroundings you still would not be able to interact with any part of the physical universe in any meaningful way, as proven by the fact that we as humans rely on solid unchanging laws of physics just to be able to live daily life.
If ghost tampered in our lives in any way then we would not be able to perform critical parts of life reliably. We rely on unchanging and predictable conditions in order to perform all tests that use the scientific method. We have extremely precise measurements that need to be accurate and reliable in order to understand the universe around us, and we need to repeat those tests reliably in order to convince other scientists of actual discoveries about physical laws.
Now it may be that spirits from the after life are able to interfere with things that are totally unpredictable such as the weather or gambling. But this could all be a need for the human brain to explain things as happening based on some "intent" from some sort of super being, or things are all based on a plan of some kind.
Well it reminds me of a story where somebody had the insane notion that there were religious demons out there to get us and if you said come here demons, then they would come and get that person, so my dad responded to the lady by yelling"Hey demons come and get us, we're ready for you to come out." Needless to say the demons never showed up. But don't you think that if there were evil demons in our lives, that they would be interfering with our scientific experiments. The only reason that bad things happen, or that there are problems in our lives is because we create those problems. If you build a house that is of fireproof material and you storm proof it and don't live in a flood risk area, and you bug spray the property, and you don't live in tornado alley, and you have a lightning rod and what ever else, then you will never have those problems. And by the way you've already protected yourself from most of the plagues that are at the bibles supposed end of the world.
But all that said it's most likely that gambling is 50/50 chance and that weather is based on "cause and effect". So if you are dead and you are still self aware, that leaves absolutely nothing that you can interact with in the physical universe. So when you do die some day don't look forward to it because even if you can travel across the universe, all that you'll be able to do is watch, and you will have no way of ever actually interacting with the universe again for the rest of eternity. Now that's not my idea of fun, unless there's some sort of afterlife version of prozac.
The Fuzzy philosophical equations are:
Event = Intent/ Purpose/ Meaning
Patterns = Faces/ shapes

Chain Reactions


The above picture depicts what occurs when a lightning bolt is created. I just learned this on an Annenburg CPB show called the "Mechanical Universe".
Why I find this interesting is that it is a cascade reaction. Which is the same kind of reaction that lasers use, and the same kind of reaction that atomic bombs use, and is the same kind of reaction that some chemical reactions use, and also it's the same kind of reaction as avalanches.
It is potential energy that is released all at once in a chain reaction.
This is not exactly free energy because the charges have to be built up ahead of time before the particles react in this way.
This is totally separate from perpetual motion devices or free energy devices. "Perpetual motion" as a term is misleading because the planets rotate around the sun in perpetual motion already. But free energy is the term I like to use for machines that produce more energy or work than is put into them.
With todays technology, these types of free energy machines may be possible in the outer solar system. The reasoning is that it is cold enough for superconductors out there to work constantly, which means that you can have a continuous energy loop with zero loss of charge.
This may or may not work. But if there was a solid state way of having an AC circuit with a superconductor then you could potentially create energy. This may be a dead end street though, now that I think about it, because of mechanical devices (Such as a free energy electric motor) need mechanical connections of different non-superconducting materials that also stick together, and the problem of lubricants(graphite might be best). And also there is no such thing yet of a superconducting AC circuit as far as I know at least.

Rules

Being dependent on others means that you have to follow any rules that they make. Independence is always a good thing but may be looked on as craziness in modern society. People have started living in cities and forgetting how to provide for themselves.
Animals are completely independent so they don't need to follow any rules. If they kill there offspring, nobody cares, or even if they kill and eat their own species nobody cares.
Some democratic and capitalist societies are better than the chaotic anarchy that animals live in.
But in other socialist, and dictating, and communist societies, are worse off than living as an animal because there is absolutely no freedom or independence whatsoever. Look to a previous post on this subject that was done better: "Control"

There are good rules and bad rules. You should never rob others or kill others are good rules to follow. But these rules should be a given and you shouldn't have to be reminded to follow them. But some bad rules are ones like making responsible gun ownership illegal. In other words no more right to bear arms.

Rules only work if they are enforceable. You can always forge the purchase price of a new car that you're buying on the title, to pay less taxes. You can fake your income by having under the table cash payment. You can put your money in a safe deposit box before you die, in order to not pay a death tax and for your kids to get all of it. And they will never check your house under your pillow every night to know if you actually do have a loaded firearm for your own protection(if a new gun law was enacted).
Just about any law that law enforcement doesn't have evidence of you breaking is an unenforceable law.

The burning man movement that takes place every year is all about trading stuff through bardering, under the table, to not have to pay taxes.

In Canada they started taxing cigarettes to make more revenue, and it worked. So they started taxing it some more and they made more revenue. And since they were even greedier they started taxing it some more, but then the revenue started going down. "How could the revenue be going down?" They asked. Well it turned out that people started buying and selling cigarettes on the black market.
And the Fuzzy Philosophical equations are:
Personal Interpretation = Rules²
Enforceable Rules = (+)Evidence
Bad Evidence = Forged/Lost
Good/ Bad = Human Invention
Bad x Created = Exists
Bad x Not Created = Doesn't Exist
Certainty = Death + Taxes(joke:')
Dependence = rules
Independence = no rules

Do Wild Animals Live A Better Life Than You?

Never allow the life you lead to be less enjoyable or trouble free than an animals life is. In other words always lead a better life than an animal leads.
  • When it comes to food, animals always have food unless it's the dry season in Africa. As shown by the fact that they are alive.
  • When it comes to water, animals always have some, as shown by the fact that they are alive. And that there is infinite, free, clean, water from the sky.
  • When it comes to work, animals only have to feed themselves and there offspring and clean themselves. That's it.
  • When it comes to shelter, animals have none, unless they live in caves, or other dry places. But I doubt that they mind the weather because their bodies have been adapted for rain protection and cold protection. And I guess since animals don't have clothes, that being in the rain for them, is like being in the shower for us. And it may even be fun to live out in the real world's weather instead of in the same old boring living room watching reruns every day. The house that we live in, which is only shelter, and warmth, and a place to hoard all of our worthless collectibles, and a place for indoor bathrooms, is one of the highest monthly costs that you will ever pay. Does it really make sense to pay this much, when you can meet all of these necessities on any piece of land with no investment capital all in 1 weeks worth of research and preparation and work. It's just the judgment of other people that we fear. Because if there are so many people living the way that modern society does, then they can't possibly all be wrong. But from a different point of view, there are just as many animals out there that don't live the same way that society does, and they seem to be happy, and doing just fine.
  • When it comes to modern conveniences, ask yourself if they are actually conveniences. If this so called modern convenience requires a monthly bill, ask yourself if the inconvenience of a monthly bill outweighs the convenience of what you're paying the monthly bill for.
  • For entertainment, the TV is always just reruns and fictional stories that have no meaning in reality. Cable has to be paid for every month. And to keep the company growing they plan on increasing the monthly bill, one way or another.
  • As for clothes, animals have none but with modern technology clothes are cheap, so this isn't hard to acquire.
A good animal to try to beat when it comes to quality of lifestyle, is the giraffe. They live one of the calmest easiest and most rewarding lives. They get all the food that they want from the tops of trees, that no other animal can reach, and even eat prickly plants. They hardly ever need to worry about predators because they can run fast and can kill a lion with one swing of their hoof. They get most of the water that they need from the plant life that they eat, but have been known to drink water if they happen upon a water source. They don't require very much sleep at all, but do sleep standing up. And they live in a fun area where the rain is enjoyable to be in when it comes once a year in the rainy season. There is never war in their world, and one giraffe killing another is so rare that it would be like winning the lottery. And even if you want to let out some emotion there is no other people judging you, or doing things to you. Animal arguments never have any legal consequences afterwards. But mostly there is no reason to be angry or complain about anything when you're a giraffe. The only end to happiness is at the end of their life, but until then there is nothing to worry about and no obligations to speak of. Also there are no appointments to keep. So no need for a watch at all (What?!?!? Is that even possible?)(YES!)
If you can beat this carefree of a lifestyle, then you would now be one of the happiest people on earth.
