                                               Ed Hopper Presents Automat*

                             Manager: Citizen Journalist; Head Cook: Richard DePersio;

                                Cook: Dago Red; In-Charge-of-Beverages: Al Hitchcock

Snack:

Dago Red: "What did you think of the Twitters?" Richard D.: "Newt talks about Moon Mining

and dozens on Twitter ridiculed the idea. Knee-jerk/ignorant reaction. I'm confident that

none of them bothered to look into the facts. We immediately went on-line with the facts:

 'Moon Mining' at www.quasarpolitics.blogspot.com CJ, 'Offending with Truth' is our hobby,

is it not?" CJ: "It sure is! And, we got it down to a science. Speaking of Newt, we opted

not to endorse him. It was a tortuous decision. Newt and Rick are more conservative

than Mitt but we must be pragmatic: Mitt is the extra-strength political deodorant that can

best wipe out the B.O. He has the $$$s, the organization and will attract moderates. I just

hope that when he becomes president that he isn't too accommodating. He might need to

compromise. If he takes a conservative or a moderate-conservative position on a particular

issue will he fight and settle for 80% or more of what he wants or will he cave at 60% or so?"

DR: "Do you think that if Republicans retain control of the House and gain control of the

Senate that it will make a difference?" RD: "Republicans will make more cuts than

Democrats but I don't think that they have what it takes to make the necessary cuts to

avoid economic collapse - they'll be too worried about being reelected; politics-as-usual."

DR: "I can't decide: Who is stranger: Rod Serling or Al Hitchcock?" CJ: "Al." RD: "Rod."

Sandwich:

As is our wont, we start off with cosmos and, them, we deal with cosmos (which means

world) and Offending with Truth when circumstances warrant.

       A meteoroid (most are less than 30 feet in diameter) is an object in space. It becomes a

meteor if it enters our atmosphere. Sometimes called a shooting star due to the flash of

light it producers - visible if large enough; flash caused by friction with air. If any portion of it

makes it to the ground, it becomes a meteorite. Related topic of asteroids in articles down-

stairs.

       There are three types of meteorites: 1) iron (80-85% iron, the rest mostly nickel; similiar

to the interior of the earth); 2) stones (mostly made up of silicates and other stoney materials;

3) stoney-iron (are the rarest, composed of about 50% iron and 50% silicates). The largest

meteorites is Hoba West in Namibia weighing 66 tons.

The first unmanned test of  NASA's Orion spacecraft is slated for early 2014. Its second and

 final orbit will take it 3,700 miles from earth. The primary purpose of the mission -besides

getting it to and from space - is testing the heat shield.

Blue-Plate Special:

Back in 1989 when the Berlin Wall was falling, Coke, was being distributed for free, in some

cases, was literally being pushed through holes in the wall by Coke representatives. Free Coke!

 Coca-Cola quickly set up business in East Germany; even giving free coolers to merchants. It

was a money-losing proposition in the short run as East German money was virtually worthless.

It was a shrewd business decision made quicker than any government body could ever hope

to act.

       "naked economics" by Charles Wheelan (Norton): "In a sense, it was Adam Smith's

invisible hand passing Coca-Cola through the Berlin Wall. Coke representatives weren't under-

taking any great humanitarian gesture as they passed beverages to the newly liberated East

Germans. Nor were they making a bold statement about the future of communism. They were

looking after business--expanding their global market, boosting profits, and making share-

holders happy. And that is the punch line of capitalism: the market aligns incentives in such a

way that individuals working for their own best interest--passing out Coca-Cola, spending years

in graduate school, planting a field of soybeans, designing a radio that will work in the shower--

leads to a thriving and ever-improving standard of living for most (though not all) members of

society."

       "...a complex economy involves billions of transactions every day, the vast majority of

which happen without any direct government involvement. And it is not just that things get done;

our lives grow steadily better in the process."

       Its when gov gets involved that the process encounters problems: high corporate taxes and

over-regulation. B.O. talks about his blue-print for our economy - watch out! Communist

countries attempt - and fail - to create blue-prints and micro-manage. Leave people, for the

most part to their own devices, and they will improve their lot in life and in the process make

life better for other by creating jobs, for example, so that they can acquire more of what they

want for themselves. Selfish is good.

Beverages:

Al Hitchcock: "Now a stranger approacheth to tell us what to do with our extra farlings." {run

commercial} This A.D.D. Moment is brought to you by Adderall and Coke - the better pick-me-

upper. After all these years, we finally discover what Desi Arnaz was singing about: babalu

(babalu I-A). The voodoo equivalent (in Cuba) of the Catholic saint Lazarus! (More at rickaddsite:

connect via Facebook Second American Revolution). AH: "Next week, I shall be back again with

another {article} until then, Goodnight."

Desert:

Americans enjoy the best healthcare in the world. Why? The rich acting in their own self-interest

are willing to pay for it. In so doing, we all benefit. Libs don't get it: the Invisible Hand. Libs

bemoan the fact that the rich get better healthcare than the poor. They should! But, the fact is:

the American poor get much better care than the poor in any other country! The rich benefit and

in the process everyone else. And, B.O. wants socialized medicine!!!

CJ: "The last article was OK." RD: "This one is much better. They all can't be gems." CJ: "Modesty

aside, most are."

               Rod Presents Twilight Zone's Mission to Mars/Mission to Muslim

               Commander: Citizen Journalist; Pilot: Richard DePersio;

               Mission Specialists: Sherlock Holmes, John Hamish Watson;

               Capcom: Alfred Hitchcock

 

Pre-Mission Briefing:

Citizen Journalist: "Welcome Back, Kotter." Richard D.: "Oh, is he contributing

too?" CJ: "No, we have enough. Thank you." RD: "Speaking of earth orbital flight."

Dr. Watson: "Wonderful!" Sherlock: "Commonplace." RD: "Speaking of flight to Mars."

SH: "Wonderful! I remember when in 1877, Giovanni Shiaparelli wrote about seeing

'canali' on Mars and it had been mistranslated into English as canals. The American,

Percival Lovell ran with it. Channels indicate a natural waterway as opposed to

canals which are man-made; in this case, Martian-made. He wrote three books and

numerous articles beginning in the 1890s about a dying Martian civilization

struggling to transport water from the poles via canals to its major cities at its

equator." RD: "Speaking of dying civilization. The teaching of Western Civilization,

especially, in a positive light - one might say, the rise and fall of Western Civilization -

has been on a decline since the 1960s. Interestingly, that is when there was a major

shift (1965) to allowing more immigration from Latin America and Asia and little from Europe:
liberal social experimentation. It is similar to what happened in some Western European

countries in the early '90s. Many churches were in bad financial shape so a Church tax was

introduced to help out. It resulted in a further decline of church attendance, especially, by

the young. They didn't want to pay a tax to attend services. Of course, the governments

denied that this was their real covert goal. Just like the libs deny that changing American

Identity was their goal in 1965. See article downstairs."

First Stage:

As is our wont, we start off with cosmos followed by cosmos (which means world) and

Offending with Truth when circumstances warrant.

       A day on Mars lasts 24 hours and 37 minutes. It takes 687 earth days to orbit the sun

once. Mars which appears red in the sky is 4,221 miles in diameter. You can tell if you

are looking at a planet or a star: star appear to twinkle.

       No one expected the Opportunity rover on Mars to last 8 years. It has now begun to

probe the Martian interior using radio waves much like the way we study earth's interior.

Second Stage:

What the hell is going on in crazy NYC! Recently, the Empire State Building was lit in the

colors of the Chinese Lunar New Year. Despicable. We should be celebrating are

oneness and not our differences. We should celebrate that which made us great!

       Western Civilization and the American Division. It used to be that people immigrated

here and over time limited their customs and traditions to their homes or abandoned them

as they proudly took on an American Identity. As we stated in one of our sub-floors, only

Western history and culture should be taught in elementary and high schools. Further, a

minimum of 75% of American history should concern the white Protestants of European

descent who made it (actually, they are responsible for over 90%!).

        Bigotry? No, the Truth!

        We were a melting pot: People came here to be American and were glad that their

children were learning Western Culture. Again, things have changed more and more since

the 1960s when the socialistic teacher's unions first formed.

        Jews for the most part became Americanized after they began coming here in large

numbers in the 1880s (See "Our Chosen People" www.quasarpolitics.blogspot.com ). What have

 muslims done besides blow up and crash!!! Most so-called moderate mosques in America and

Europe receive financial support from the muslim brotherhood (lower-case letters intentional).

Renounce those funds if you don't want us to think that you are in-the-closet radicals and terrorists.

They are ruining small towns throughout our land by building their 'people of the domes' extra-large

versions in the center of those towns ruining the nature and appearance. Freedom of religion:

they have that right but they are required to adapt to us not we to them. The people of these

towns have lived there all of their lives and have ancestors who go way back: real Americana.

They should be good neighbors and ask where they can locate their eyesores! Then, they

complain that they are victims of harassment. The inconsiderate's ask for it.

        Why don't more muslim leaders speak out against terrorism. Western Europe is being

torn a part. WC (Western Civilization not Water Closet. Although, it is being flushed down the

toilet in favor of multi-cultural which the govs there have begun to reconsider. And so should we!

Landing:

In "Naked Economics" by Charles Wheelan (W.W. Norton, 2010), he states, "...most of the

reckless behavior that led to the financial crisis was predictable, given the incentives built

into the system..." No where does he mention the pressure placed on banks by barney frank's

fannie and freddie to issue high-risk mortgages to people with little or no credit. A situation that

Bush tried to rectify in 2005 and was blocked by frank's behind. The crisis was largely caused

by f and f. Wheelan blames mortgage brokers and the banks themselves - perpetuating the

liberal myth.

                  Cook: Richard DePersio; Waitress: Bridget 'Knocko' McCarthy*

                                         Bartender: Alfred Hitchcock

 

MENU:

Appetizer: Citizen Journalist: "We wish to welcome the newest member of our

staff: Knocko; she is one tough cookie!" It's great to be here. It's like a class

reunion, I know so many of the staff members." CJ: "All this talk about venture

capitalists. They invest in new companies and new products. They should be

investing in companies like SpaceX and not Uncle Sam. They might demand that

a company downsize before they are willing to invest which could mean selling

off asserts and laying off workers. If successful, the company will later be in a

position to hire new workers and, perhaps, exceed the number of workers that it

originally had. It is so high risk that banks won't grant a loan. It is good capitalism

unlike crony capitalism: bailing out banks and sparing union bosses and workers

any pain in auto industry: stock holders and corporate execs did all the suffering

because of an unconstitutional bankruptcy judge - Obama!" Richard D.: "I think that

 'Leave it to Beaver' was the first series to have a series' finale' (a special final

episode), as opposed to, a final episode (indistinguishable from any other episode).

Knocko: "The U.S. Supreme Court has told the Obama Administration to butt out

when it comes to the hiring and firing of ministers and educators at religious

institutions. Obama having wanted to apply employment laws and regulations.

They were told that religious orgs were exempt: they could hire and fire whomever

they pleased. It should be extended to private sector." CJ: "Knocko, that was a

knocko and Richard D. that was an A.D.D."

(This article is being co-produced by CJCS {Citizen Journalist/Cayuga Productions/

Shamley Productions} Studios).

First Course: As is our wont, we start off with cosmos followed by cosmos (meaning

world) and Offending with Truth when circumstances warrant.

      There are three basic types of asteroids: stony; stony-iron; iron. Asteroids in the

outer part of the belt contain water.

      "Originally, astronomers thought that asteroids were remnants of a planet that had

been destroyed; now they believe asteroids to be material that never became a planet,

possibly because it was affected by Jupiter's strong gravity."** (See articles downstairs

for more info on asteroids).

      Recently, NASA Administrator Charles Bolden gave his stamp of approval for Lockheed

Martin Space Systems Co.'s test-version of the Orion. The next version Orion is slated for

an unmanned mission to high orbit and back in 2014.

Entree': The U.S. was a minor industrialized nation in 1870. Miraculously, in a mere

30 years, we were tied with England as the world's leading industrialized powers. By

1920, we occupied that position solo.

      During this period, while it centered around manufacturing, the Industrial Revolution,

included, Rockefeller in oil, Carnegie in steel, Morgan in banking, Armour in meat

packing. There were the contributions of the independent inventors in the U.S. as well.

Edison, Bell, Westinghouse and others inventing: the skyscraper, cable car, telephone,

light bulb, air brake, refrigerated rail road car, phonograph, fountain pen, Kodak camera,

movie camera and, let's not forget, the zipper.

      We became a post-industrialized or service economy in the '80s but failed to retain

a strong industrial base. During the last few years manufacturing is returning. Does

Obama deserve credit? It's returning to the southern states without unions. Obama is a

union puppet bent on destroying American jobs. American companies want to hire

American workers for patriotic reasons. Naturally, that isn't their prime motivator. In

terms of output, American employees are the best in the world. An advantage negated by

outlandish unions demands. In non-union, right-to-work states, workers are compensated

far more than workers in foreign plants but less than those in union states. Of course,

American companies which aren't international have no choice which can lead, eventually,

to bankruptcy. This can even be the case for American-based international companies

with most or all of their factories here. Companies can wind up owing the union pension

more than what the company is worth. In the end, stock/bond holders and creditors get the

shaft while pensioners get their pensions and many workers' early retirement

packages after assets are sold.

      Students are taught about the glorious unions beginning in first grade but they aren't

taught the truth, for example, it was fed, state and local govs a long with unions that

promoted discrimination. While the big bad corporations didn't for the past 100 years. Their

motives weren't all that noble - they desired expanding markets.

      Retaining the world's second highest corporate income tax of 35% (only Japan is

higher - coming in at 38%) and creating new regulations on a daily basis will only force

American headquartered companies to open up more factories in foreign countries.

      We're going to say what others, including, conservative politicians are afraid to say:

the super-rich, the rich and the upper-middle class pay more than their fair share of

taxes! The 1 % wealthiest Americans pay 38% of federal income taxes and the 10%

richest 67%. It's the mid-middle class, the lower-middle class and the working poor who

fail to support their fed gov (much of which is unconstitutional but that's another story).

They pay little or nothing or receive a small to large refund! Most of the non-working are

parasites!

Drinks: This A.D.D. Moment is brought to you by Adderall and 7 Up - the better mixer.

"...When I got home I {Alan Alda, age 7} had to throw up. They held my head as I leaned

over the toilet. My knees buckled and I nearly fell into the bowl. They caught me and held

me up. I could hear my mother whisper to my father, 'He has polio.' My father whispered

hoarsely, 'Come on, will you. You always think the worst.'...She had been reading about

polio in magazines...At the hospital they stuck a long needle in the spine...I had polio...I

wasn't allowed out of the house {largely limited to his room}...No friends...The country was

on the throes of an epidemic {circa 1940}. People were afraid to go to public swimming

pools or theaters for fear of the contagion."*** He grew up to be a feminist.

Alfred Hitchcock: "One more commercial for the road. Upon my return, I shall add just the

chaser." {run commercial} Citizen Journalist articles are well-preserved having been kept in

a sealed mayonnaise jar on CJ's back porch. Do read articles on pages 1 and 2. AH: "...if you

have no contagions, our commercials will create them for you...Goodnight."

Dessert: "Naked Economics" by Charles Wheelan (W.W. Norton and Co.,2010). "...

Individuals don't get the bill for this behavior, but society does - in the form of air pollution,

global warming, and urban sprawl. The best way to deal with this growing problem is not the

stuff of laissez-faire conservatives usually talk about. It is higher taxes on gasoline and cars.

...will the cost of climbing behind the wheel of a car reflect the real social cost of that

activity. Similarly, large subsidies for public transportation would properly reward those

commuters who spare the rest of us by not getting into their cars."

      Where to begin!?! He is wrong on so many levels: 1) Liberal U.N. global warming science

was discredited in 2006; 2) Fed Gov punishing and rewarding citizens! The Founding Fathers

believed that people could say anything that they wanted - positive or negative, smart or stupid,

kind or hurtful (hate speech and verbal sexual harassment laws are unconstitutional). They

felt that people had a right to act properly or recklessly, in their self-interests or for the benefit

of others - so long as they didn't violate laws of which they wanted few. Fed Gov manipulating

behavior!; 3) More spending equates to more taxes. When people have less of their hard earned

money, they are less free.

In 1776, over 90% of those living in the New England States were of English descent while over

50% in the other states were. Most of the rest were Irish, German, French. The Irish

representation increased during the 1840-50s due to the Potato Famine in Ireland. There was an

influx of Italians and East European Jews between 1820-1924. Other nationalities prior to 1924

came to our shores in smaller numbers.

       The Immigration Act of 1924 sought to preserve the American Identity by allowing immigration

from Northern and Western Europe, very little from Southern and Eastern Europe (too bad for

Our Chosen People and too bad for America) and virtually known from Africa and Asia. The

Immigration Act of 1965 was the reverse with the addition of giving high priority to Latin American

countries.. It is claimed that no one thought that there would be a large influx from these countries

and a change to American Identity. We found that hard to except. It was in the '60s that liberals began

to become critical of Western Civilization/Culture and began their efforts toward creating revisionist

American history (today over 60% of every American history textbook is negative on America!).

       Like it or not, over 90% of the greatest Americans were white Europeans (including, Jews) and

over 90% of the important discoveries and inventions must be credited to them and their Western

Culture. Is it bigotry or a desire to retain American greatness that we favor American identity.

We done enough for the world's poor and downtrodden. Let's limit immigration to educated rich

and middle class Europeans plus some Asians (on average Asians score higher on standard I.Q.

tests than whites, whites higher than blacks and browns).

       There are an estimated 12 million illegal's with 9 million of them being brown. If we

legalize them and, eventually, they bring over there parents and children, we are talking about

close to 40 million. The legal browns on average have more babies than whites and blacks.

Blacks fought for their rights as citizens, it wasn't handed to them and until 2000 had outnumbered

browns. Now, their political clout has been diminished.

       Whites were 95% of the population in 1776 are now down to 67%. What will happen if we

legalize the illegals? By 2035, there won't be a majority in America - whites will be below 51%;

by 2075 or sooner, browns will replace us as the largest minority.

       Bigotry or a desire to retain American greatness!?!

most apropos to what we are talking about." RD: "Indeed. It's during such storms that the

bogeyman or booger man is most likely to kill or abduct the lily-white lads. With the

inclusion of the Spearchucker, we can no longer be accused of being bigots. Rumors laid

to rest. I was remiss: CJ's brother-in-law is black." (See: "The Truth About Blacks Colored"

world) and Offending with Truth when circumstances warrant.

      The orbits of asteroids in the Asteroid Belt around the sun are nearly circular. There are

times when the gravity of Jupiter will nudge an asteroid into an elliptical orbit wherein the closest

part of its orbit around the sun crosses earth's orbit. These are known as near-earth asteroids.

The closest part of their orbit is .9 to 1.3 AUs (Astronomical Unit is the distance of the earth

from the sun and is about 93 million miles). The dangerous ones are over 500 feet wide; over

.6 miles could cause a mass extinction. Those that are over 500 feet, we list there distance

as fractions or multiples of the moon distance from earth (about 250,000 miles).

      The earth has two moons! There is an asteroid that is 3.3. feet wide and orbiting the earth.

Such orbits are temporary; they stop orbiting the earth within a year when they infrequently

occur - caught be earth gravity.(See "Citizen Journalist Caveat" at www.rickaddsite.blogspot.com )

It's time to play: When was it written. Was it written: yesterday?; Last year?; Five years Ago?

"It is as difficult to talk to votaries of the TVA about their dreamchild, as it is to talk to the

American Civil Liberties Union about the Bill of Rights. They don't want to discuss it, they want to

burn incense to it." (CJ: By the bye. the ACL is the most dangerous lib org in existence. Founded in

the 1920s with the overt and claimed mission of protecting our  rights; its covert mission has been to

transform U.S. into a secular-progressive nation with a 'living' constitution far removed from our

Founding Fathers. They have achieved much!). Let's get back to our game. If you said "1963" you

are right. Your prize: Tear another page out of the U.S. Constitution. ("Quotations from Chairman

Bill" {Buckley} compiled by David Franke, Pocket Books). (From the TVA's inception in the '20s to

the present, libs have considered the TVA a complete success).

       What does the late President Ronald Reagan have to say? Citizen Journalist: "Pardon me for

being late for I was in the bathroom; let's be PC: man's room. Of course, the two of you know each

other: Bill and Ron; pardon me for taking liberties Mr. President. Mr. Reagan, you are the man. The

article is yours...Ronald Reagan: "...considered above criticism, sacred as motherhood, is TVA.

This program started as a flood control project; the Tennessee Valley was periodically ravaged by

destructive floods. The Army Engineers set out to solve this problem. They said that it was possible

that once in 500 years there could be a total capacity flood that would inundate some 600,000

acres. Well the engineers fixed that. They made a permanent lake which inundated a million

acres. This solved the problem of the floods, but the annual interest on the TVA debt is five times as

great as the annual flood damage they sought to correct. Of course, you will point out that TVA gets

electric power from the impounded waters, and this is true, but today 85 per cent of the TVA's

electricity is generated in coal burning steam plants. Now perhaps you'll charge that I'm

overlooking the navigable waterway that was created, providing cheap barge traffic, but the bulk of

the freight on that waterway is coal being shipped to the TVA steam plants, and the cost of

maintaining that channel each year would pay for shipping all the coal by rail, and there would be

money left over.

      "One last argument remains:  the prosperity produced by such large programs of government

spending. Certainly there are few areas where more spending has taken place. The Labor Department

lists 50 per cent of the 169 counties on the Tennessee valley as permanent areas of poverty,

distress, and unemployment."

      Citizen Journalist: "Thank you Mr. President and Bill. Though, the U.S. Supreme Court ignorantly

deemed it constitutional it constitutes one of the biggest U.S. socialist projects ever! BIG GOV follows

one stupid decision with another; gov projects get bigger with time and these projects get progressively

worse. Just look at fed gov involvement in healthcare: $40 billion of annual waste and fraud in Medicare and

Medicaid. What does our socialist president want: BIGGER gov involvement in healthcare! Fed gov can

create gov jobs that curtail the freedoms of businesses and the citizenry; also redundant and

unnecessary gov jobs. They can create short-lived private sector jobs. Only the private sector can create

numerous creative and meaningful long-lived jobs in the private sector. Keynesian Libs like FDR, LBJ and

Obama worshipped at the Keynesian alter spending BILLIONS of YOUR $$$s on failed gov projects and

failed shovel-ready projects (in some cases contracting with private companies; nearly 1 Trillion was spent

by Obama in stimulus to create nearly 2 million gov and private sector jobs - virtually all the private sector

jobs were short-lived! Never are newly created gov jobs short-lived! Do you think that your $$$s were wisely

 spent!?! Each job cost: you do the math). As we stated in an article a  few floors down (focus; take an

Adderall to remember the name of the article before the end of this article), In the private sector, 3% of workers

 are laid-off or fired annually; in the public arena: 1/2%! Could it be that gov workers are so good? Not likely!

 It is virtually impossible to lay-off or fire an incompetent gov worker due to gov unions and civil service rules.
