How to Kill a Hurricane - Quickly!

Online Think Tanks often discuss issues and solve problems that no one else looks at, because they think around the box, that is to say not necessarily in it or out of it, but all of the above. Thus when the 2005 Hurricane Season got out of control we started discussing the issue of how to kill a hurricane.

So, what can we tell you about Hurricane Annihilation Theory or "HAT" well, you most likely will not find this information on the web, as it is one of my original concepts. The Online Think Tank Bulletin board was hacked and it was something I posted under "Ways to Kill hurricanes" but it is no longer on the Internet. Here is the basic premise;

Water droplets on the wavelets or salt spray evaporate and block the trade winds, this allows the Hurricane to grow, as rain falls the barrier increases and the Hurricane's heat engine expands. Solution: modify the droplet size and the trade winds will prevent the Hurricane from forming.

A.) The droplet size and blocking of the trade winds, which allow the formation of Hurricanes is known; there are research papers on that.

B.) Harmonic resonance and vibrational sound waves are known to affect ionically the water molecules, there are research papers on that. Japanese have done research and there is other research on water molecules that confirm it. Lots of information on ice, water and frequency out there, very interesting in fact.

C.) The floating of the barge I envision would be similar to the use of floatation devices to raises sunken ships for recovery and submarines that are underwater for rescue. There are pictures of that on the Internet.

Since this is on of my original concepts, you will not find this anywhere, except in my brain and some sketch notes I have. I have not written it up, I have a 1,000 concepts that I need to write up someday, it is a lot about time really. I think I might have explained the basic premise in an online article once, but not much more detail than I have explained to you. Humans are not interested in solutions, rather they pretend to be in order to funnel money to political friends, you know what I am saying? Again, not judging.

If you take this idea to a Meteorologist, Physics Professor, ELF scientist, underwater recovery entrepreneur looking for long lost treasure, one could easily be built. Mostly it is a matter of cost and need, but if you are protecting a whole city or National Shoreline it is relevant. Often, unfortunately, you have to realize that humans are much about "not invented here" and "the status quo" and sometimes to their non-disruptive benefit and other times to their folly. A little philosophy assists in helping one not worry about the further reaching consequences? Smile, it is simply the way things are currently.

How To Defend Human Civilizations from CAT V Hurricanes

The Online Think Tank has spent considerable time figuring out ways to defend against Super Storms, F-5 Tornados, and CAT V Hurricanes. Human civilizations, just cannot take that level of pounding and since most everything is already built, there is not much we can do in the way of defending against a Hurricane right?

The question is; can we defeat the Hurricane or collapse the eye wall and raise the low pressure inside, thus destroying this demonic virtual heat engine? Well actually I have considered several models. One uses a submersible/floatable "ELF" Barge working with a Laser System, which towed by a nuclear submarine underwater and then is inflated and rises to the surface and shoots up and out and the laser across the tops of the wavelets, modifying the droplet size.

The Hurricane then cannot block the trade winds or normal surface winds. For shoreline defense, it would rest on a rail underwater and would shoot at the waves preceding the Hurricane, until the barge was at critical buoyancy due to waves and then lower until the eye came over and raise again. The system would simply be set underwater and wait until needed.

Sometimes there is sufficient economic interests that do well in human civilizations in rebuilding after disasters who may not be able to get in on the preventative technologies, but rather enjoy government re-building contracts, does that make sense. No judgment here of course, humans are humans, but realize that much of this technology while needed is not wanted. Smile, not good or bad, it just is the reality of things in the present period. May as well laugh at it all to prevent the tears? So, for that reason, we have not taken these concepts very far.

Actually, the device could be also used to create a "Wave Weapon" (which of course is of interest to many) by increasing Typhoons and storm surges or even creating them for offensive needs of the military or as a defensive system against hostile humans. It perhaps could also be designed to make a series of three similar systems, which could create "Rogue Waves" to sink ships or combat a storm. With a storm, although this adds power to the storm it would temporarily remove the storm surge and unravel the tightness of the Hurricanes Eye, setting it into a transitional phase as lowering the category temporarily while the eye-wall forms.

Since Lasers could superheat the water with reflective sheeting or on the surface, it could be done from the air too via an Airborne Laser Aircraft;

A device could also be dropped into the eye and be self-powered to stay in the eye floating on the surface doing the same thing while spinning around bobbing up and down. There have been many ideas floated, such as polymer ball absorption, putting oil on the water to prevent evaporation, etc.

Knocking down a storm is not impossible, it is just the size of the response is a huge undertaking once the Hurricane gets to strength, that is a lot of energy, but so are the trade winds and the volume they move too. Anyway, too many thoughts for such a simple article, but it might be worthy of consideration, deleting a Hurricane makes sense, but an island city facing a Tsunami from a Mid Atlantic Ridge Event or undersea slide, or large Earthquake, is a much different issue. You still can get your 30-foot high intrusion of the ocean and you cannot stop that, using anything similar in nature.

A large city with a shoreline like Miami or Long Island NY, well, you would of course wish to have barriers for that or a giant "V" shaped break water piece of land from the direction you expected the Tsunami and then figure out barriers for the flooding. But an island in the middle of the Pacific who knows where it could come from surrounded by the Ring of Fire. In the Atlantic, the Mid Atlantic Ridge would be the most plausible thus, you could suspect where it would come from. Long Island and Atlantic Coastline is in jeopardy of course.

What if a nuclear power decided it was angry at the US for instance? And we do not guard those areas like we guard our own coastline, nor has anyone attempted to alleviate stress thru relieving geo-thermal heat or causing minor events to prevent a future major event. There have been Discovery Channel stories on the problems. A series of "V" shaped barriers would work good and also provide sea life refuge and natural habitats for abundance and food supply. Well have fun with all these thoughts and let us know what you think.

Some Thoughts on the Super Bowl

I am a genetically mapped New York Giant football fan which pretty much makes me just like millions of other DNA doomed dummies who for some unexplainable reason innately pledge their allegiance to a set of colors, numbers and helmet symbols for eternity. Like Canadian geese, we partner with a team for life, through thick and thin, good times and bad, seasons ending in playoffs and seasons ending with top five choices. It is the football gene and if you have it, you understand. Alas, if only marriage could work the same.

The fact is it isnt like marriage. It is not that we are in love with our teams and our teams in love with us. If that were true, it would be like a relationship, requiring everyones needs to be met, resulting in fans dropping the souring attraction of one team for the empty promises of another. Nope, love is not involved. Its a pathetic, sad, lonely one way street that is determined at birth. You are what you are: a Steeler, a Charger, a Seahawk, a Bengal, a Buccaneer. Some of us taste sweet victories frequently, while others wallow in self pity perpetually. It is no different from some people being tall and some people being short. It is my hope that someday stem cell research will produce a treatment to help some of my suffering brothers; for example, change a Cardinal fan into a Cowboy fan, giving them some hope of enjoying a winning season before they die.

It is our game. We dont particularly delight in watching our teams flounder amidst a room full of fence sitters, people without the gene. Youre either with us or against us. And when it is late October and all we can think about is replacing coaches, players and team ownership, our shoulders slump as we prepare to endure the inescapable long November and December weekends in silent lonesome agony.

It is a terrible, terrible existence; worse than that experienced by other sport fans because there is so much time for so few games. This imbalance gives the true football fan plenty of time to trick ones mind to think with a few breaks here and a few calls there that a 1-7 start can miraculously turn into a 9-7 wild card berth, only to be soundly crushed eventually by the shear weight of the challenge.

But no matter how bad the season, we can all unite for that final game, the Super Bowl. We can all find a reason to like one team over another. Usually it is the result of some convoluted thinking that somehow our team is vindicated if the right team wins. For example, I was really pulling for the Seattle Seahawks in this last Super Bowl. Why? Because the NY Giants should have beaten the Seahawks. Everyone knows that. So if the Seahawks beat the Steelers, I could rest easier knowing we could have been there too. We could have been somebody.

Unfortunately, the Super Bowl has become tedious to watch for the genetically mapped fan. It seems as if the game is diced up and wedged into a five hour colossal commercial to the world of American self indulgence. The game is sixty minutes of play that normally takes two and a half to three hours to get through. The Super Bowl somehow shoehorns in two more hours from start to finish, thirty minutes right off the bat for scatting through what I think is the National Anthem, and then an additional ten minutes to flip the coin.

Every year it gets a bit more dramatic, a bit more long, a bit more embarrassing and a bit more intolerable. Just play the game! The players have worked so hard for this single game and the NFL pulls it out from under them with all the self serving promotion. For instance, this year they introduced a series of ten second clips throughout the game of despicable Super Bowl Trophy fondling, where key players from each team pose individually with the trophycaressing it, kissing it, and worse. You cant do that! Why its its its the epitome of putting on the whammy. They might just as well get the evil eye. Some of those guys are going to lose and when they do, they will have to live with the idea that they cursed the team with their ill-advised trophy antics. Theyd have to hold a gun to my head for me to do that. If the Giants ever get to Super Sunday again, to a player they better never ever touch that trophy, let alone even set eyes on it, before it is duly earned. The whole thing made me sick! I couldnt even eat another wing dripping in blue cheese sauce.

And what is going on with the half time extravaganza? Can we calm that thing down? Can we see more xs and os and less screaming clueless teenagers making a grown man cry. The game has become the opening act for a concert, rather than the other way around. There seems to be more concern about costume malfunctions than referee malfunctions, which there were plenty of. I suppose I could put the extra time to good use, like paint the house, but I dont want to. I want to stay involved in the moment of the battle. But these Vegas shows are killing my patience. And as bad as it is for the fan, it must be brutal keeping players focused in the locker rooms.

Having said all that, we know that most of the added time is due to the commercials. Ah, the commercials. It is all about the commercials. How can they extend the game to make a few more bucks on commercials? Why dont they give each coach ten time outs? Why dont they have two minute warnings every minute? Pretty soon, theyll have to start the game noon Saturday and have it end midnight Sunday. And the commercials arent even that entertaining anymore. Its killing me. The madness has to stop.

So here are some ideas to get the game that the real fans support so tirelessly back on track. First, eliminate the extra week prior to the game and shift the season so that the Super Bowl is played on Presidents Day weekend. Second, fix the refereeing by employing full time referee teams. Third, use the half time to honor the latest Hall of Fame inductees, or our troops, or Super Bowl MVPs of years pastmake it about the game or something noble, not about pop icons. If you want to have concerts, have them before the game starts. Finally, rein in the commercials.

What the NFL executives have allowed the Super Bowl to become is what is so unappealing about America to people who have no other lens. Everything is bigger than life. Everything is glitzy. Everything is so self important. Its a bad, media contrived face to the world. Please bring our simple, humble game back. Please let the players play the game they earned to play. Please stop the insanity.

Im beggin ya please!

Visiting the Magic Kingdom with Small Children

When traveling to the Magic Kingdom with children, it is important to perform advanced planning before arriving in Florida. Preparing for this trip will make the difference in a stressful family vacation and a fabulous, magical vacation that your family will always remember.

The Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney world in Florida is one of the worlds most popular vacation destinations. Millions of visitors tour the Magic Kingdom Park each year and although it is the smallest of all four Disney Florida Parks, it is also the most crowded. It is not uncommon to see families touring the parks in the hot Florida sun, with parents yelling at their children and the children crying or screaming for something. This tends to happen as families spend a lot of money on this type of vacation and want to be sure to get their moneys worth. This leads them to drag their families throughout the park, with over-tired, hot and hungry children.

It is important to remember that children function best when in their normal daily routine. Their days at Walt Disney world will be filled with early mornings, off schedule (or skipped) naps, changes in eating times, and late nights. Also the weather in Orlando can be extremely hot and humid or very rainy, depending on when you visit. It is crucial that parents understand that children will be on sensory overload and will be out of their routines when on vacation.

You can visit the Magic Kingdom with children and still have a fabulous time. If you are only able to visit for one day, you should arrive at the parks before its scheduled opening time. As the park opens you should visit Fantasyland (if traveling with small children) or Frontierland (for older children). A one day touring schedule is possible, however, if traveling with children you will have to be willing to limit your list of must-see attractions. With children, it is always better to allot two full days at the Magic Kingdom. This will allow you to tour at a calmer pace and allow your children to take in all that the park has to offer.

Your advanced planning when visiting the Magic Kingdom should include deciding what time of year to visit, what day of the week will be least crowded, and how many days you have to visit the Magic Kingdom. You should also review the park layout and policies before you arrive. Being knowledgeable on the attractions will help you decide which ones you would like to visit before even arriving in Orlando. Reviewing Disney information on stroller rentals, the Fastpass system and parades and shows are just a few examples of things you should strive to learn about before you arrive. This will allow you to maximize your time at the Magic Kingdom and concentrate on your Disney family vacation.

A little planning will help you create your best visit to the Magic Kingdom!
