THE WORLD IS AN INSANE ASYLUM AND THE MORE INSANE YOU ARE THE MORE "FIT" YOU ARE TO RUN THE SHOW SO "HARPER'S SCARY AGENDA" COMES AS NO SURPRISE.

"'New World Order'

A terrorist is broadly defined by the architects of the North American Union, as any individual or group which opposes the New World Order agenda."

ONE WONDER'S IF HUMANITY CAN TURN THE CORNER - AND HOW IT CAN COME ABOUT?

Joseph Stalin: The supreme ruler and communist leader of the Soviet Union who ruled for 25 years until his death in 1953. His views and ideals for industrialization and agriculture resulted in the suffering and deaths of millions. Not content, he ordered the executions and imprisonment of literally thousands who were deemed to be 'enemies' of himself and his people.

Mao Tse Tung: Successful in creating a united and recognized China, his methods of achieving this would result in millions of deaths as he strived to modernize the country. A communist ruler between 1949 and his death in 1976 his cultural revolution caused damage to China's society and economy, but he remains a controversial figure, even after death, as some people favour what he did in developing the country, and others look at how he controlled the nation and caused unnecessary suffering to the people.

Adolf Hitler - A dictator who declared himself to be the ' Fuhrer' of Germany and leader of the Nazi Party during the 1930's until 1945. He declared the concept of racial hygiene as set up policies to eradicate those who were not deemed to be 'pure.' Responsible for the deaths of up to 15 million people, from Jews to the handicapped, using mass executions and concentration camps. Starvation and disease was advanced in his use of slave labour to build an 'ideal' Germany.

Ivan the Terrible - Known as the 'Tzar' of Russia between 1533 and 1547. Becoming mentally unstable in the latter years of his reign led to his orders to followers of mass executions and violence. A tyrant that ruled with no limits to his barbaric attitude of rapes and murders he chose the 'Oprichniki' (faithful followers) who carried out a bloody campaign against the masses.

Pol Pot - The Cambodian leader whose rule of slave labour and murder can be contributed to the deaths of up to 1.5 million during his reign as Prime Minister between 1976 and 1979. A dictator whose policies led to starvation, disease and murders.

Idi Amin Dada - President of Uganda who rule after a coup in 1971 until 1979 is littered with human rights abuse and the persecution of ethnic minorities was deemed responsible for up to 500,000 deaths.

Tamerlane - In the 14th Century Timur (he used several names) conquered large parts of Central and Western Asia. His armies slaughtered millions through the conquests of battle. One notable record is his ordering that a pyramid be built out of 70,000 skulls of the human dead.

My fellow terrorist,

When more people are willing to open their eyes, to see what is going on,
connect up the dots and understand that this is their fate if they don't speak up...

    "First, they came for the Communists,
And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Communist;

    And then they came for the trade unionists,
And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a trade unionist;

    And then they came for the Jews,
And I didn’t speak up because I wasn’t a Jew;

    And then . . . they came for me . . .
And by that time there was no one left to speak up."

Maybe all politicians should come with prescriptions for Zyprexa.

I THINK I NEED SOME OF THAT...!!!

SINCE I JUST SPENT THE LAST 2 FULL DAYS WINDING SECONDARIES ON A NEW TRANSFORMER "FIGURE 8 CORE" AND WOKE UP THIS MORNING REALIZING I FORGOT THE RETURN CROSS MEMBER (CORE CIRCLE AROUND THE "8 CORE") WHICH CARRIES THE INDUCED SECONDARY FLUX BACK TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE SECONDARY. I AM DARING TO THINK NOW THAT - A VERY SHORT AIR CORE PRIMARY IS THE TICKET!!?

I AM USING A 15" TOROID CORE WHICH IS COMPRESSED AT THE CENTRE DOWN TO LESS THAN 1" WHERE THE AIR CORE PRIMARY IS PLACED.

I AM GETTING OVER 40 (NO LOAD) VOLTS OUT OF MY SECONDARIES WITH 1.4 VOLTS @ 0.45 AMPS INTO THE PRIMARY. I ASSUMED THE CORE WOULD BE ABLE TO HANDLE THE INDUCED FLUX BUT I WAS WRONG. BACK TO THE DRAWING BOARD.

HAPPY THANKS GIVING TO ALL!
