An odd thing this election is..
AND..
What piss poor choices we have.
At a time when things are in a melt down.
From the news paper.
Wachovia Corp. reported a $23.9-billion third-quarter loss Wednesday, the largest loss at any bank since the financial crisis began, reflecting the company's terrible timing in acquiring California-based mortgage lender Golden West Financial Corp. two years ago.

Fasten your seat belts... this roller coaster is just leaving the station!

CNN bashed NASA for spending 1.74 mil on a new computer system. I have a feeling that NASA will have its funding cut to shreds before the axe even starts to fall.

Im from Seattle originally but now I'm living in Erie, PA. I have to say, a lot of people in this area are to f'ing rude. I'm a democrat.. been one my entire life and being one is NOT cool according to most I work with.. These weekend Christians are dictating what MY beliefs should be regarding politics. I don't tell them that believing in God is a sign of mental illness so why should they insist that Im stupid for wanting ANYTHING but the same crap going on in the House of Representatives, the senate or the White House??!!

Anyway.. Im not going to vote.. WHY? Well.. I don't like what I'm hearing from either. It's the same S**T, Different election AND I don't see either fixing anything....
300+ million people in the United States and thats the best either party can find to run for the most important position in the country??!!
What about the state the house of Representatives is in. These elected men and women can't come to an agreement about the simplest things regradless of how good it is for public schools or anything. Has anyone one watched C-SPAN?? If those people were working for a company, the whole lot would of been fired years ago.
I'm upset with all of this crap.. Sports heros signing 100 million dollar contracts to play games all of us played at school during recess or maybe on the school team. Medical insurance companies complaining about their earnings but the hospitals making boofoo bucks. Can anyone give me a legit reason why a bed at a hospital costs over $1,000.00 a day? Please remember.. this is the cost of the bed.. Not the addtional cost of the Dr. Meds.. and such.. They even keep track of how many rolls of toilet paper is used. (I think it cost me and my ex wife $5 a roll while she was having our twin daughters).
It's about time wall street wokeup! To many companies trading billions of dollars on paper with no real assets to justfy it. These IDIOTS running these banking companies would rather forclose on someone and lose all the value instead of dropping the payment so people can keep their homes, make payments and keep the bank with a working cash flow. To me it sounds to simple but the greety bankers would rather have the little guy thrown out than work a break even deal for the bank.

Mike for President campaign trail pledges.
1st.. Id make it a crime take money in any from from compaines while running for or during an elected position (NO SPECIAL INTEREST PERIOD!)
2nd.. I'd Make politions sale off ALL holdings in OIL, MEDICAL or other special interest groups. (It's wrong they get rich passing laws at the cost of hurting the good of the nation's people or the planet. Exxon-Mobil had a net profit of 50 billion dollars last year. Go ahead.. try to tell me they are acting in the best interest of the American people!)
3rd.. Id hire 10,000 people to police ALL charges to Medicare. It is estimated that 15% is fraudulent.
----------------------------------------------------------------
FROM THE NCPA WEB SITE... http://www.ncpa.org/health/pdh5.html

Scam artists are using their computers to find holes in Medicare and Medicaid payout systems to commit massive fraud, according to reports.

First they register as providers of equipment or services.

Then they file a variety of exploratory claims through the payment system to see what happens.

Once they hit upon types of claims that are automatically approved by Medicare and Medicaid computers -- with no human scrutiny involved -- they launch a barrage of claims, then sit back and wait for the checks to roll in.
Crime technologists say that the health care industry suffers a rapidly spreading plague of fly-by-night medical businesses that set up in storefronts, register as providers, bill fast and furiously for a short while -- then disappear without a trace.

In 1988, a Bronx shoe store owner bilked the New York state Medicaid program for $1.1 million.

In a recent Florida case, a business consisting of two rented mailboxes and a beeper phone number was paid $2.1 million by Medicare in five months -- before the owner vanished.
System administrators say that electronic processing saves them from $8 billion to $10 billion annually. But critics say fraud losses may well dwarf the administrative savings.

SETI@Home inHouse Care, Inc
Not a good idea for sure but hey.. looks like an easy way to raise that much needed $ for operations :)
Yeah.. let me think.. 10 billion divided by 10,000.. humm.. thats a million each.. Maybe I would hire 40,000 to investigate fraud.. thats a cool .25 mill each to review paper work :) People need jobs right? Oh.. and that stays right in line with the way Gov workers are over paid... they would make 1/2 to 1/3 if they did the same job in the private sector. I know a guy that makes 70k a year reviewing unemployment forms and thats no joke. In a typical office id expect 35k-40k max.
What a joke.. Where do these people get their educations????
Oh.. and the cost of medicare?

From: http://www.g2reports.com/issues/NIR/2007_3/1611631-1.html
The above site is an interesting read.. LOL! Can't blame that group for looking out for their selfs but they need to get on the band wagon about all this fraud too. Humm.. For all I know, they are dupping the Gov too.. lol

Think about this for on second. 15% fraud is 68.1 BILLION DOLLARS!!!! I think I'd spend the 10 Billion to get back 58.1 billion.. Like I said.. where do these idiots get their educations?


I guess Im a bit pissed at where the ones in charge of this great nation have lead us. We are losing our common wealth, spending 10 billion fighting a war no one thinks we can really win (except the ones in the White House sending our tax dollars)
We are losing the battle in manufacturing to Japan and other growing countries. Our public schools system is falling behind many countries. Now kids don't even have to attend.. they can Cyber-School in there leisure. I'm not so sure thats the way to prepare some one for a full day of actually working. Im betting that this sort of non-presure attitude will make it a bit hard for most that seek this type of schooling to be effective in the work place.

My wife is ill. A rare disease that in time will take her life. We checked on medicare.. According to them.. She has to be unable to work for 2 years before a dime will come our way. (It's doubtful she will live that long) Maybe now you know why I am NOT happy with this LACK of governing the Government! These F'ing self serving rich public leaching B*****Ds need to be thrown out!

Oh well..
PLEASE join Our Team.. Go to our site and post your views..

Carl Sagan Astronomer 1934 - 1996

May his Humanity, his Eloquence and his Passion for Science and for Life - - Live forever!


Hello My fellow Team Mates :)
If you are NOT a Team Mate.. Hello to you too !

If you are considering joining a team but don't have any idea where to start, you must first ask your self, why is it I am crunching work units for SETI@home.
If the answer is the same as the team members of Carl Sagan, It's because at some point in your life, you became very interested in the science of space.
For most if not all of the members of the Carl Sagan team, it was the late Doctor's extraordinary insight that set people like us in motion to learn more about the cosmos.
The members of the Carl Sagan team wish you the very best in your quest for more knowledge and understanding of the cosmos and science.
If you do not chose to join our team, its ok. All of us in the team here are just happy you are active in SETI@home. It is a very important project that could completely put a rest to the

question... ARE WE ALONE?

If you would like to join our team.. Its very easy.. Visit our Carl Sagan team page.

If you would like more information, watch this about our team.

Our team has Forums, Chat Rooms and a (TG) Team Graphic like the ones below that you can use once you sign up at the team's forums. You have complete control over the colors and background.. Once you have joined our team, go to the Carl Sagan Team Site and setup your account.
If you have any questions, Contact Mike O. He would be happy to assist you in anyway he can in setting things up.
Here are some examples of our TG:





Please, Be part of something bigger..
