Missouri
Blue August
Elections are next week here in Missouri.
Expected turnout is predicted to be 24%, meaning that things like Proposition C, a last ditch effort by anti-Obama Missouri Republicans and Tea Partyers to kill the new health care system, will likely fail. Voting “yes” on Prop C is a lot like setting yourself up to apply for a Darwin Award. You may not have a condition that requires that your insurance company to pay for lifesaving treatment today, but if by chance your insurance provider feels the need to drop you like a bad habit because your cancer is a “pre-existing condition” (*ahem*Wellpoint/Anthem/Blue Cross Blue Shield*ahem*), then basically you have chosen to cull yourself from the heard. So, the smart thing to do would be to vote NO on Prop C!
I don’t like either Republican candidate for Missouri State Auditor. Tom Schweich donated $250 to Ed Martin last year! Being endorsed by John Ashcroft is also a good enough reason to abhor him. Meanwhile, Allan Icet isn’t any better. Icet put Joe the Plumber in his ads and tried to draw attention to the letter “T” in his name to highly his support for the Tea Party, Schweich became the lesser of two evils.Forget it! They both have Tea Party backers, and both equally thourghly suck. Until I remembered that Susan Montee, the incumbent, was running to keep her place as State Auditor. Hopefully, Montee will have a Hail Mary strategy against her two boisterous rivals. I haven’t seen any of her ads lately.
In the St. Louis area, expect Robyn Hamlin and Ed Martin (both Tea Party Republicans) to lose to William Lacy Clay and Russ Carnahan, respectively. Despite Clay’s recent support for the Riverview Casino Project (which should really be in Cape Girardeau, not near the serene wetlands of the Mississippi-Missouri River Confluence), Clay will likely keep his seat in the U.S. House of Representatives for District 1. Carnahan (like his sister Robin) will likely also succeed for District 2. Ed Martin is clearly in La-la-land, accusing President Obama of “removing religious freedoms”. Just about every religious group and civil liberties group has told Martin his Tin Foil Hat is on too tight.
The big campaign for the state of Missouri is for U.S. Senate. With Kit Bond retiring (hooray!), Roy Blunt and Missouri Secretary of State Robin Carnahan are vying for the senate seat. Blunt, who like his son (former governor Matt Blunt, or as he’s known here as “Missouri’s Dubya”), is knee deep in corruption and lobbyists. Blunt’s second and current wife Abigail Perlman is a lobbyist for Kraft Foods. They married in 2003. Blunt has his own Political Action Group, the Rely on Your Beliefs Fund (ROYB Fund), spending more than $2 Million of which his contributors include Altria (L for Love, Mrs. Perlman), Enron (clearly before it imploded), Microsoft, and Jack Abramoff who is currently living in a halfway house after spending 70 months in Federal P.M.I.T.A. Prison.
In terms of general contributions, Monsanto, Peabody Energy, Goldman Sachs, Blue Cross/Blue Shield (pro-prop C), Devon Energy (Most money given out to ANYONE this year from their company: $10,000), Cheveron (In the top 5 recipients this year alone), Valero Energy (One of four senators who received at least $10,000 this year the most given out to anyone), Exxon Mobile (2nd most money donated THIS YEAR, #1 for the state of Missouri), BRITISH PETROLEUM!. 2nd most money received since records were compiled online ($12,500) and Kit Bond eclipses Blunt who out ranks John Ashcroft, Dick Gephardt, and Jim Talent).
If there is anyone who has his hand so covered in black muck this election it is Roy Blunt!
As for comparisons, checking Robin Carnahan, William Lacy Clay, Russ Carnahan, Susan Montee, and Claire McCaskill have nearly spotless records with most of their money coming in from labor unions. There are a couple of small smudges such as receiving donations from Ameren but their donations are pocket change compared to the Big Oil, Coal, and Natural Gas companies that have made Congressman Blunt and family very wealthy.
However, my biggest criticism of Democratic candidates is that they haven’t adverized themselves. I have yet to see Robin Carnahan, Russ Carnahan, Susan Montee, William Lacy Clay, or Anti-Prop C supporters invest in a massive media campaign like the fearmongers on the right have. Is it because we have a democratic president? Is it because we have democratic (in name only sadly) governor? Are they being over confident or underfunded? Or have the Dems driven people nuts with asking people for money? Find me a Democratic website where you don’t run into a splash page asking for a donation of $20 or more! I’d be interested in supporting say $5, but $20 is just too much for right now. Not unless I get a good looking T-shirt out of it.
Everyone is still broke. And the Republican candidates don’t seem to get that. They want things to be as they were on January 19, 2009 and they are willing to invest plenty of money to spread lies to no end, forgetting that the Internet is their Achilles heel. The republican still don’t get it, yet they are willing to burn down everything to prove their point and gain support.
Charley Dooley has a SOCS (sort of)
Charley Dooley had a SOCS (Sudden Outbreak of Common Sense) yesterday. Whether or not he read my blog recently, or if the “Ghost of November Future” visited him in the middle of the night (since he is running for re-election in November) had something to do with it is debatable. More importantly now is the time for action!
The Missouri Gaming Commission (MGC) will be meeting next week on May 26 for their monthly meeting. According to the Southeast Missourian, a decision for the casino license that once belonged to the President Casino, could be made by September 1st. The St. Louis Area is competing with Cape Girardeau for the open license.
Cape Girardeau is eager to have a casino in their downtown area, and frankly they can have it! Puting a casino in a town’s downtown district makes more sense than putting it in a wildlife area.
However, a group called North County Development LLC, which changed it’s name from Camco Development LLC, FROM LADUE (a community that is NOT in North St. Louis County), still wants their project and has vowed to plow through anyway.
So if Cape Girardeau wants a casino, and North St. Louis County doesn’t, and Cape has an ideal location to set up shop and North County doesn’t, what is the logical thing to do? Put it in Cape Girardeau!
But some people are stubborn, and won’t listen to logic. Ed Griesedieck appears to be one of them.
Why Verizon won’t be taking over Charter anytime soon
I have plenty of positive things to say about both companies even if Charter suffered through financial troubles and Verizon’s services is still quite expensive.
You would think that two companies of which one provides some pretty good Internet service and a fairly decent channel line up and another company known for its excellent phone service and outstanding wireless internet coverage would be interested in joining forces against their rivals at AT&T, right?
WRONG! Sadly, these two modest contenders are not at all happy with each other and the St. Louis area doesn’t really know it. Then of course there are the lawsuits between Charter and Verizon. (Note to self: Insert picture of two grown men sissy-fighting with each other in relationship to how these two companies are behaving.)
Charter is still a cable based internet service provider, whereas Verizon can not find a place in the St. Louis market to provide their FTTx (a.k.a. FiOS) service in the St. Louis area. So the duopoly between Charter and AT&T still exists in the St. Louis area in terms of High-Speed Internet service. (Unless of course, Google comes to bless us with whatever they plan on giving out. PLEASE COME HERE, GOOGLE!)
Meanwhile, Verizon, who beat the snot out of AT&T in both Consumer Reports and Zagats consumer ratings this winter, is still both a wireless carrier competing with AT&T, Sprint, and T-Mobile not only provides wireless phone service but wireless Internet as well.
One of the great things about Verizon is that I can use my Motorola Droid and tether it to my netbook using a program called PDANet.
Since it has been a while since I have blogged, I think I should explain some of the details of my netbook.
In February, I became involved with a group called a hackerspace. The local hackerspace group, Arch Reactor, had an open house meeting that I ‘m pretty happy that I went to and joined the group. (Hence no time for blogging as of late.) Most of the time we hang around and talk about making stuff (not necessarily hacking, but also art, electronics including Ardruino, woodworking, robotics, and a bit of gardening).
Since most of the guys bring their laptops or netbooks, I used some of my rainy-day funds to buy a refurbished HP Mini from someone on eBay. It was probably one one of the best purchases I made. The computer is in great condition (with exception for a little scratch on the bottom of the computer), there is an extra-long lasting Lithium-ion battery on it. And it still runs Windows XP.
So what if I don’t have Vista or 7 on this thing? Most of the time I am either on the Internet or using UNIX-like program with Cygwin as well as an arsenal of other free open-source software available for Windows. To which I’ve tossed out just about all the software that comes on this system. Norton Internet Security (TRIALWARE! Annoying as hell!), Microsoft Office (Trialware! Use OpenOffice.org instead!), Microsoft Works (Crap). I wish I could toss out Internet Explorer, especially since I am using Chrome. But I figured, the less Microsoft stuff I have to use, the less of a security threat I can be subject to. On top of that, XP is stable enough to do some fancy computer stuff like changing the startup animation, the login screen, and replacing the GUI interface.
Anyway, back to PDANet.
PDANet is probably the best $20 worth of software that you will ever spend if you are both the owner of a Motorola Droid or other Android enabled device and the owner of a Netbook with Windows or Mac on it.
Using your phone and your computer to tether with each other to have wireless Internet is downright awesome. I would have almost have been tempted to cancel my Charter subscription if only Verizon didn’t allow any other ports to be used for things like IRC chat, SSH, or even Usenet. (AT&T is the same way, so I can probably speculate and say that every other wireless provider also is not really all that keen at the moment to use any other port than the ones used for web browsing.)
Clearly, Verizon (and its rivals) have issues still with people using their network for doing things other than downloading stupid videos of cats playing the keyboard. But like any computer system that can be modified (even Windows and Android), there is a way around it.
Having a netbook is does not mean the retirement of my old Linux system that I built myself. In fact, it opens the door to allowing for me to better my computer skills and to attempt to make the two computers communicate with each other (of which despite their form factor have pretty much the same abilities and hardware standards for the most part).
My loyal Linux machine is in need for some hardware upgrades that due to the current economy, it was much cheaper to find a netbook to take care of some of the dirty work that the Linux machine could have. That and the netbook is about 20 decibels quieter than the Linux Machine. An issue that is on my todo list when I head out to Micro Center, when and if the Missouri state legislature (particularly Cynthia Davis and Jane Cunningham) pull the head out of their butts and realize that a socialized healthcare system is the reform this country needs to get people back to work. The same can be said about the Tea Party which is also threatening to kill Metro. (Vote YES on Proposition A on April 6th! I like riding the bus, but if adding a half-cent sales tax to cut the time I spend commuting to and from Downtown (which is an hour!) is wrong, then I definitely don’t want to be right!)
Attention AT&T: You are not the government! So don’t tax us like you are!
There is a saying that goes “Don’t steal. The Government Hates Competition.” Well, AT&T feels obliged to challenge that by charging Missouri’s 1,000,000 land line customers a $6.10 municipal tax. The municipality doesn’t see any of that money, as proven by an angry Florissant Mayor Robert Lowery, Sr.
Here is what happened. A few years ago, there was a lawsuit in Missouri where AT&T was told to pay a $65 Million settlement back to 300 cities in the state of Missouri including Florissant, University City, and unincorporated St. Louis County. However, AT&T is taking it out on their land line customers that they are suppost to be paying back by charging them $6.10 Municipal tax that was suppost to occur once. The Missouri technology tax is only about $4 for ever $100. St. Louis County only charges about $2. But AT&T, being AT&T, has decided to charge this $6.10 tax that they made up against their land line customers FOR THE NEXT FOUR YEARS!.
So instead of paying back it’s customers in 300 cities in Missouri the $65 Million in back taxes, they will make a profit off the 1 Million Missouri customers of about $73.2 Million each year for the next 4 years. (If you think that is not that much, There are only about 5.9 Million people who live in Missouri. meaning about 1 in 6 people in our state will be paying an extra $73.20 per year.) In the end they will make up more than $292.8 Million, nearly four and a half times the value of the the initial settlement.
AT&T gets to make money off the customers they are suppost to be paying back, and there is no law against it! After this incident, customers will want laws against what AT&T is doing! The fact that private industry is create a tax in addition to what customers are paying them is concerning and should be a wake up call to how the government regulates business practices.
Guess Who’s Moved into the Neighborhood? Big Brother!
My town of Florissant is such a diverse and multicultural community. White, black, Hispanic, Asian, you name it. But there is one kind of person that we don’t like in our neighborhood. THIS KIND.

3100 blk N Hwy 67, Florissant, MO
This 15 foot tall pole with the black thing on it that you see in this photo is not a street light. Nor is it one of the traffic cameras that is perched upon the traffic signals near where this photo was taken.
This one right here is used EXCLUSIVELY for one purpose. WATCHING YOU!

"Hi! I'm your new neighbor!"

Average Libertarian
These cameras are classic 1984 surveillance. Of which, if you live in my town, you should probably be pretty pissed off right now.
In the future, this blog will publish all locations of these cameras where ever they are found. Especially if they look like the one at the beginning of this blog entry.
So far, I have found two of them. The one that was in the above was taken at 3100 block of North Highway 67 at New Halls Ferry Road in Florissant, Missouri outside the Mobil Station.

1900 blk N Hwy 67, Florissant, MO
This photo was taken about a mile away near the 1900 block of North Highway 67 at New Florissant Road in Florissant, outside the Steak ‘n Shake and a block away from the Florissant Police Department.
More of these cameras exist. And they are NOT used for catching traffic violations.
Learn more about your rights and why these cameras should be illegal at the Electronic Frontier Foundation website.
Don’t be afraid of Technology! Fight back against those who abuse it!
Let’s shut Big Brother down!
Post your photos of cameras just like these online then send the link as a reply to this post. Preferibly Flikr, TweetPic, or some legitimate photo service website. The spam filter will reject anything from a bad website.
Don’t forget to include the locations of where you found the photos.
Florissant Residents should contact Florissant Mayor Robert G. Lowery, Sr. at 314-839-7601 and tell Mayor Lowery to get rid of these illegal cameras!
Follow up:
Turns out the camera are EXCLUSIVELY in Florissant. There purpose is still the same. Apparently, Bob Lowery has alot of time on his hands. Of course, given his health conditions, he hasn’t spent much of that time on the golf course.
There are a total of FOUR cameras. (Enough to fit one CCTV screen I suppose). The Other two.

800 blk N Hwy 67, Florissant
This camera planted in an almost perfect spot. Unfortunately, no one bothered to try putting one of these cameras up on a hill in Old Town Florissant, where there are NO public surveillance cameras (or as these devices will be known as PSCs). Parked at the Florissant Meadows Shopping Center between Patterson Road and Lindsay Lane-St. Denis Street, this camera watches you eat your ice cream at the Baskin Robins, order a Sack of Ten at White Castle, and pretty much sees everything for a quarter mile until you reach the next and final camera.

8200 blk N Lindbergh Blvd, Florissant
Each camera is about 1 mile from each other. All of them within the city limits of Florissant.
Welcome to St. Louis!
The following post is for the visitors of the Major League Baseball All-Star Game.
Welcome to St. Louis, Missouri! Home of the TEN TIME World Champion St. Louis Cardinals. (When we win more World Series titles than the New York Yankies, you can thank us for shutting down Major League Baseball. Believe us, once someone better whose not from New York out does the so-called “best team in baseball”, Bud Selig will have fire sale.)
Home of McDonnell Douglas, Trans World Airlines, GrandPa Pidgeon’s, May Department Stores, Peavely Dairy, Monsanto, Peabody Energy, Patriot Coal , Arch Coal (Don’t those last four companies just “love” the environment?) and our biggest hometown staple Anheuser-Busch. Home of an industrial workforce such as the Hazelwood Ford Plant where they make the Ford Explorer, the Fenton Chrysler Plant where they make the Dodge Ram, and the Wentzville GM Assembly Plant.
If you’ve come from out of town, you may be interested in visiting the Ballpark VillageEmpty Lot complements of our good friends at the Centene Corporation. Mayor Slay invites you to visit the new Ballpark VillageEmpty Lot before and after the All Star Game and the Home Run Derby. (Most of you who are visiting and going to the game have spent about a grand per baseball seat. I would hate to see it get rained out. Not to put a jinx on the event, but I’m just being honest.)
While in St. Louis, visit our many tourist attractions using our Metro Transit System which can take you to places such as the The Gateway Arch, The St. Louis Zoo (No service in this direction), The Missouri History Museum (to which is near the Forest Park Metrolink Station), The St. Louis Art Museum(No service), The Science Center(No service), The Muny(No service, from what I can tell), The Kiel Opera House(What opera house?), The Bevo Mill (Closed. You can thank Carlos Brito of InBev for this one.), The Delmar Loop (lofts), The Central West End (lofts), Washington Avenue (and more lofts), Union Station (assuming there are stores still there), Laclede’s Landing, The Missouri Bontanical Gardens (I might be wrong about this one), The Hill (this one is also a little iffy), Grant’s Farm (No service, and Carlos Brito reduced the hours.), The Magic House (This makes me sad that there are no busses. Your kids would have loved it!), The City Museum (I wish I could have crossed out this one), and Lambert-St. Louis International Airport (word of advice to Mr. Shaquille O’Neal or anyone over 7 feet, watch your head when entering the main terminal).
But St. Louis is not the only place in the area where the excitement is! Why not use Metro to visit our surrounding cities such as Clayton, Bridgeton Lambert-Airport W1W Runway, Kirkwood (nothing to write home about), Ferguson (I hope there is still service here), Chesterfield (No bus service), Florissant (you are better off using a bike!), St. Charles(They don’t want to pay taxes to support it, but mostly they don’t want “certain people” there. Why visit them anyway? New Town is in a SWAMP!), the Recplex and Mid Rivers Mall in St. Peters(More people who didn’t want to pay taxes. Never mind most of the people who they don’t want there have these things called “cars” so they can DRIVE out there and work.), O’Fallon (Another city that won’t pay taxes for bus service, though it’s urban development caused all sorts of controversy a couple of years ago. Did we metion it is also where good Christian women who think “hunger can be a positive motivator” come from to represent the state of Missouri but follow around an crazy ambulance chasing dentist/lawyer who will some day become the Crazy Cat Lady from The Simpsons?)
While in Downtown St. Louis enjoying the Ballpark Village Empty Lot be sure to visit the new City Garden, located between Chestnut and Market and 8th and 10th Streets across the street from the Peabody Energy Corporate Headquarters. Feel free to ask them how are things in Muhlenberg County, Kentucky.
.
Don’t forget to try some Imo’s Pizza and some Ted Drewes’ Frozen Custard, Toasted Ravioli (though I personally prefer regular ravioli), Schlafly Beer and Fitz’s Root Beer and Gus’ Pretzels. Because the food alone is worth the trip out to our city.
So on behalf of the people of St. Louis: WELCOME!
In The Garden with the Blog and Twitter
One of my many interest for the past couple of years has been gardening. With the job market in a tumble (in the case of computer programming careers in the state of “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up”), I’ve decided to spend more time in the backyard.
Gardening is hard work. It’s a good hobby, but it is hard work. Perhaps it is the natural instinct that runs in my blood as my grandfather used to be a farmer up until about 16 years ago and my great-grandmother gardened on a plot of land next to her house for decades up until the day she died. And my great-grandfather was a sweet potato farmer until he died. The hardest part is that his property was torn down to make way for a subdivision.
With so much urban sprawl in the area, it is important to preserve what is left of the farmland that has been in the area for centuries. And I do literally mean centuries considering the information on these maps from 1868! Most of the major roads in the area have not changed in over 200 years. So whatever established farmland that is still left in the area should be preserved.
Eventually, I’d like to own a plot of land. Until that time, I just have my backyard. And from the information I have gathered, the dirt in the backyard was well taken care of. Plowing up space in the backyard for the garden has yielded many pieces of limestone, which is used as a soil conditioner to neutralize acidic soil conditions. So I can safely assume that the plot of land that my house is on used to be farmland.
Anyway, I’ve been meaning to blog about my garden as a way to keep track of the status of things that are occuring in the garden as well as when might be a good time to plant and harvest in the future.
Thanks to Twitter, quick status reports are easy, but in general, blogging is a little bit more responsible especially if garden tweets get mixed up with all my other interest.
One option I was considering is creating a separate blog for gardening. However, with the Tags and Categories features in WordPress, I find it much easier just to use one blog. Besides, it gives me a chance to talk about other things outside of technology and computer programming.
On the other hand, the computer has become a jack-of-all-trades tool, providing weather reports, agrocultural information, and an extensive network of like minded indivuduals interested in the same thing. Something my grandparents never had, though books and elbow grease are still part of the farmer/gardener’s arsenal.
Callaway County Nuclear Plant Bill Nuked!
After spouting off untruths like “Greenpeace [rather Patrick Moore who was kicked out of Greenpeace] approves of nuclear power” and “Nuclear Power is renewable energy”, the State Capitol killed the Missouri Clean and Renewable Energy Construction Act.
First off, nuclear power is NOT a renewable source of energy. It can be advertised as an “alternative” to coal, oil, or natural gas, but it is certainly NOT renewable.
Secondly, nuclear power is NOT clean energy. Aside from the waste produced by nuclear reactors, there is the radiation. Science tells us that pretty much everything is radioactive to a certain degree. The human body produces radiation but at very low levels. This non-ionizing radiation is given off as body heat. But the radiation given off by enriched uranium, a common fuel used in nuclear reactors, is poisionous due to the ionizing radiation released the various isotopes. So much so that when it is handle, it is packaged in layers of concrete. Until there is some way to scrub out the radiation, be it from peaceful usage of nuclear power or the horrors of nuclear weapons, nuclear material will remain the most dirty form of energy next to coal.
Finally, nuclear power is NOT green energy. There is nothing “green” about radioactive waste. The tranportation of it is also not green. While it chance that the truck carrying it to the waste being stollen or in an accident are very low, the waste still has to be packed up in concrete again and transported to someplace underground where it could seep into a water table. It also takes many years for some of the leftover isotopes to decay. Many of the half-lifes of the most hazardous elements have half-lifes that are couted in centuries. Most garbage in a common landfill would decay many times over compared to the waste. Even the concrete that contains them would crumble before the waste decays.
But business men do not understand that. All they see is a way to make money over a relatively short amount of time.
In recent months, we have seen the work of their ilk, even watch as some of them die off from thier addiction to greed. I’ll admit, I’d like to be rich some day, but at a much slower rate.
Unless you are willing to pay the burdens of higher taxes that come with the luxtury of a higher income, what is there to complain about?
These $400,000 per year executives moaning over a 33% income tax by the federal government have no reason to complan, especially since the math is in their favor. 33% of $400,000 is $132,000 in taxes. Keep in mind they still have 66% of that $400,000 to keep. Which is $264,000 to do whatever the heck they want. More than likely, have of that will go into investments that still make them money. Still, that is $132,000 of money they can still spend annually, while if for some instance they put the other half of that $132,000 in an Investment Savings Account with a rate of 0.15%, it would take atleast 7 years for them to make a million dollars in comparison to a person making $40,000 per year, who is taxed 10% (leaving them with $36,000 depositing half of that into savings each year) it would take 53 years. For someone making $100,000 being taxed 25%, it would take 26 years. Of course, these figures don’t account for pay raises or other stuff taken out of a paycheck.
Overall, they’re living a pretty good life. So what do they have to be unhappy about? Not enough sand near their vacation house in the Hamptons?
It’s one thing to write out one of those giant checks to a foundation, it is another to go out of your way and actually do something good for others.
What good is it being rich when you don’t do anything to help those who aren’t. I don’t mean work at a soup kitchen. If you’re running a energy company and are making even in your sleep, why aren’t you investing in affordable RENEWABLE energy, of which you can make more money since the system pays for itself when properly maintained?
There are people who have been laid off in Grantie City and Ameren wants to build a nuclear plant? Why don’t they build it out of steel made in India and anger hundreds of steel workers while they are at it?
Ameren will attempt to sneak this bill in again, just wait and see.
And if that doesn’t work, they will attempt to make it appear like we are running out of energy by imposing rolling blackouts for a power shortage that does not exist. Didn’t someone else try doing that? *cough*Enron*cough*
We don’t need a bill to change the rules. We need a bill that creates REAL renewable energy and creates new jobs in an area that need it.
