   Posted by: AUDIOMIND   in Uncategorized

……..what the fuck is up with these kids that expect me to give them candy when they don’t even bother to dress up for Halloween.

Not to sound elitist (or some other description that eludes me right now), but do they think they are gonna become awash in sweets when they are too damn lazy to entertain me?

STEP OFF BEETCHES…………

If Not America, Then Where?

   Posted by: AUDIOMIND   in Uncategorized

Happen to read this discussion on slashdot earlier and thought it was a fairly good discussion, so I decided to post a sample of what one person said so eloquently:

http://ask.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=06/10/24/1810233


So this is what it has come to, has it?

You quit.

That’s it?

It’s over?

You’re going to let your country expire because you’re too lazy to get up off your asses and take it back? The US is (or was) the perfect example of a country. You were oppressed by some ruling class that wanted to tax you with representing you, take away your rights, and treat you like the lousy commoners you are. Instead of leaving to go to other countries, your ancestors said, “Hey, that’s not right. We can do a better job.” You overthrew the government and made the biggest, roughest, smartest country that the world has ever known. You invented electric lights, developed flight, split the atom, and you walked on the fucking moon. You showed the world, “This is what we are capable of as human beings when we work together. Man and woman, rich and poor, white and black, side by side.”

Yeah, you’ve had some rough times. A few dickheads have metagamed and bent the rules towards their own sociopathic ends. It’s hard to stage a revolt and take back your country when there are laws preventing you from doing so.

But you know what? There were laws against revolting from England, too. I’m sure that your founding fathers would have been hanged (lethal injection not being around at the time) or sent to The Tower (Gitmo not being around at the time either). Yeah, you might die. You might have to go to war. You’ve done that before – twice, and internally! – so that the side of freedom would prevail.

I am not an American. I think that for the most part, you’re a bunch of arrogant assholes. But you know what? You deserve to be arrogant. A large part of the hostility you get from foreigners is jealousy. Yes, jealousy. You’re a young country. You’re less than 300 years old. How does that make a 3000 year old country look when you completely surpass their technology, human rights, and standard of living? Yeah, they’d look stupid for just sitting around in the desert when they could have been using the tools that were just lying around. You are the most powerful nation in the history of the planet. There is nothing in this universe that you cannot do. All you require is the will to do it.

If you leave, if you give up, that jealousy will turn to hatred – hatred that you threw out one of the best things that’s happened to the world. And you are. Yeah, sometimes the US is a belligerent force. You’ve made some mistakes – and we all know what they are. But when there are earthquakes, the US is there. When there is starvation, the US is there. When there are floods, tsunamis, or hurricanes the US is there. Sometimes you go to the wrong places or have misguided or corrupt leaders. For the most part, you are a force for good. At least, you try to be.

We all make mistakes. Mistakes can be forgiven.

Don’t give up.

If you don’t like what’s happening to your country, then don’t quit it. Fight it. Fight to keep your country safe and secure. The only threat to your country comes from within.

Be strong. Stay and fight.

Move? This is exactly what ‘they’ want. Down the road ‘they’ won’t have to worry about you if push comes to shove.

Instead, stay and ‘fight’ for what you believe to be right, no matter if it KILLS you. There have been those who have lived, long before you (or I), that have died to uphold the ideals our founding fathers enshrined.

Is it better to give up, or be held in high-esteem for holding to principles that reflect the foundations of what this country was created upon?

The Smoking Ban Debate Once Again Rears its Ugly Head

   Posted by: AUDIOMIND   in Uncategorized

[those in support of this ban pay particular attention]

Here are my thoughts on the re-emergence of the consideration for this ban…….which has gotten me and many others in an uproar. (Take special note that I personally don’t smoke.)

This controversy has little to do with public ‘air’ rights or the ethics of smoking. (i.e., or I could take the “Don’t lecture me about smoking when you’re stuffing that Big Mac down your windpipe, polluting the ozone with your SUV and dumping 10 bags of garbage a week” route, but now is not the time.)

It’s not a question of smokers vs. non-smokers anymore. That’s not the issue, even if it’s a powerful enough issue for brothers and sisters to demonize each other, all the while letting our emotions and irrationality override the true issue.

It’s about the principles of the rights of business owners (private or otherwise) to choose what happens (within the realms of legality) within their own dwellings. There is no easy answer, but history has shown us time and time again that the easy answer isn’t always the best answer, nor why collective public ownership of something, something that belongs TO ME, is not what can be called democracy.

Do you wish to circumvent the rights of a property owner simply because of your personal preferences and beliefs……..whether or not second-hand smoke is deadly, nor whether or not non-smokers ‘have’ more rights than smokers?

If that doesn’t matter much to you please don’t let me hear you crying or claiming “democracy” and the “voice of the people” when you choose not to flinch when something like this comes up.

Some points to consider:

  • 1. You, as a consumer, are not forced to visit a restaurant or bar where smoking is permitted. You have the CHOICE to go elsewhere…for example, a restaurant or bar that has VOLUNTARILY declared itself smoke-free. (like 38% of the Queen City has!)
  • 2. You also, as a potential employee, are not forced to work for a restaurant or bar where smoking is permitted. You have the CHOICE to work elsewhere.
  • 3. Government has no business telling private business owners how to run their businesses. This is yet another intrusion into our lives by government “experts” who conveniently ignore the law and common sense in favor of their own misguided opinions.
  • 4. If you REALLY want change that’s fair, TELL (or complain, whichever) the restaurants and bars you visit how you feel about smoking. Get them to make up their own minds in regard to altering their smoking policies. Doing anything else is telling them that their rights aren’t as important as your rights.
  • Anyone who believes in forcing private business owners to ban smoking supports something along the lines of a mild form of despotism; yes it’s that serious. Next thing you know, you’ll all be wanting to ban alcohol (bad for you), red meat (bad for you), refined sugar (bad for you), salt (bad for you), and everything else that causes a MINIMAL amount of harm. Alcohol is DIRECTLY responsible for far more deaths each year than second-hand smoke (if it isn’t simply junk-science), but no one is seriously proposing to ban alcohol. Therefore, why do you care so much whether people smoke in a bar, especially if all present patrons have consented to being exposed to cigarette smoke?

    In conclusion let me break it down for some of you guys/gals who might not grasp or be prepared for the reality of personal property rights.
    (property rights being an integral part of what this country was founded upon)

    [begin story]

    There is this guy Audiomind who decides to renovate and reopen a club named ‘ShakeDatAzz’ on E. 4th St. as a brand new nightclub under a different name.

    Audiomind decides to purchase the building and utilize the space much like how it was utilized before; as a club/bar, occasionally ‘leased’ to other promoters who book artists, DJs, performing acts.

    Audiomind, solely, pays for the rent, utilities, sound, lighting, bar essentials, cleaning/security staff, accessories, etc, and is most certainly always open to suggestion by the patrons who attend HIS club.

    Audiomind is nice enough to allow (unlike some establishments) others to smoke within HIS club, even though it pisses him off that people love to put them out on the floor. Noted is one complaint he has received from some puritan nanny city council member who shall not be named.

    Ms. Puritanical Nanny Pants decides to rise above Audiomind, ‘the peon’ & ‘the ignorant’; and alone becomes fixated on commanding him (and every other business owner within county limits) on what should be allowed within mine own establishment (within legality, of course). She helps pass a city ordinance commanding him (along with everyone else) to cease allowing law-abiding, free-willing patrons to smoke within his building, even against his own personal wishes for HIS business.

    Essentially, not only has Ms. Puritanical Nanny Pants taken free-will away from the smokers (& non-smokers alike) who come to HIS club, but she has single-handedly decided that the public, including herself, have a (non-existant, non-binding) vested interest (and ownership) in HIS property, property that HE purchased with HIS hard-earned dollar. Basically, or so it seems, Audiomind simply pays taxes on his property only to be dictated to by city council on what he can or cannot do within his building, even if those actions are within the realm of legality.

    Audiomind then becomes curious how long before Ms. Puritanical Nanny Pants turns into a complete despot and finally begins to dictate to him & his family what he can or cannot do within his own home, primarily based upon her own personal preferences. I mean it his for his own good, correct?

    However, if Audiomind is allowed to do as he wishes, within the bounds of the law and within the walls of his place of business, and happens to receive enough complaints about the smoking, he might find it in his own best (financial and/or otherwise) interests to desist allowing smoking in HIS club any longer.

    [end story]

    Now, I say again, what gives you the audacity to assume that you (the non-smoker in support of this draconian ordinance…think NYC & SF) have more rights (whether it be property and/or supposed ‘air’ rights), above & beyond that of a property owner of an establishment that YOU PERSONALLY MAKE THE CHOICE to enter?

    Hopefully, this should clear up any misconceptions about who has the upper hand in this debate…….and that it makes clear that your clean air rights stop at the door of my property rights!

    J.A.I.L. for Judges – Finally

       Posted by: AUDIOMIND   in Uncategorized

    The Judicial Accountability Initiative Law, J.A.I.L., is a single-issue national grassroots organization designed to end the rampant and pervasive judicial corruption in the legal system of the United States. J.A.I.L. recognizes this can be achieved only through making the Judicial Branch of government answerable and accountable to an entity other than itself. At this time it isn’t, resulting in the judiciary’s arbitrary abuse of the doctrine of judicial immunity, leaving the People without recourse when their inherent rights are violated by judges.


    http://www.jail4judges.org/
    http://www.sd-jail4judges.org/

    The primary reason I am posting this is because I’ve been a member of J.A.I.L. for a quite sometime now, particularly since I personally became a victim of ‘judicial activism’, IMO a great threat to personal liberty in modern times.

    This morning after listening to a biased and scathing news report on NPR radio, I felt it appropriate to respond with haste, as their assumptions and insinuations bordered on propaganda, i’m guessing in their pursuit of support against the initiative in South Dakota. You can listen to the report here, though it’s fairly one-sided:
    http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=6288938

    NPR falsely make it appear as if every group, every business, every person in SD is against it, when in fact the public supports the measure 3-to-1.

    Why???

    Because for a very long time now public officials (primarily judges) have been immune to the draconian acts they bestow upon us lesser citizen mortals in their fits of judicial activism. The relative fears that some groups have exclaimed (mainly as a scare tactic) to rally support against these justifiable proposals basically stems from their misunderstanding of what J.A.I.L. is attempting to accomplish. It, WE, are not asking that a mass of judges face the reality of being sued simply because someone disagreed with a verdict, but that we wish there to exist recourse for actions that go against established codes of law, laws established by state and federal legislatures.

    If you review the sites above (and below) you can clearly see that plenty of safeguards would be implemented to facilitate a judicious process that would not be abused with frivolous lawsuits. The hurdles would be quite complex, but nonetheless the accountability would finally be there. As it stands now, it is close to impossible (and practically unheard of) for judges/lawyers to be reprimanded, much less fired, based upon their unlawful, inaccurate, careless, irreprehensible & erroneous actions, as well as for their misconduct. When was the last time you heard of a judge being reprimanded by his superiors? Let go? It simply doesn’t happen, rarely if ever.

    Yet the judicial abuse, delivered indiscriminately to ordinary citizens is almost impalpable, yet most have little to no recourse for seeking justice for the actions of a few activist judges.

    Finally, now is their chance to hold those accountable who would do wrong in the eyes of the law. Don’t think it doesn’t happen? Visit any family courtroom on any given day in any given city in any given state and tell me it doesn’t happen.

    If you have time read the great proposal put forth in SD so named the [i]South Dakota Amendment E[/i] here:
    http://www.amendmente.com/
    http://www.latimes.com/news/printedition/la-na-judges15oct15,1,192282.story?ctrack=1&cset=true
    ::
    Amendment E clearly states:

    Judges shall not have immunity for:

    * Deliberate violations of the law, or of the state or federal constitutions.
    * Fraud or conspiracy.
    * Intentional violations of due process.
    * Deliberate disregard of material facts.
    * Judicial acts without jurisdiction.
    * Acts that impede the lawful conclusion of a case, including unreasonable delay and willful rendering of an unlawful judgment or order.

    Hopefully if and when the SD citizens overwhelmingly pass this legitimate piece of legislation we may finally begin to see (those) judges (who act illegally) fulfill their required obligations to uphold statutory law and have accountability reestablished back into the hands of the governed rather than solely in the hands of those who govern.

    Please help expand and grow this nationwide trend if you agree!

    Scare Tactics – Step-by-Step Guides for Halloween

       Posted by: AUDIOMIND   in Uncategorized

    (1)The Bubbling Cauldron

    Want a real witches’ brew? Mix soap-bubble solution with dry ice, or use liquid nitrogen for bubbles that release fog when they pop. In the video below use the help of a few young assistants to create cauldrons of toil and trouble.

    Here’s how it’s done:

    There are many ways to make a bubbling cauldron of witch’s brew. As with all magic, some preparation is required for the spell to work properly. The three most practical methods for creating a bubbling cauldron are:

  • 1. Liquid nitrogen
  • 2. Dry ice
  • 3. Mechanical injection of compressed air or, preferably, helium

  • * All magic potions begin with hot water. If you don’t have a fire under your cauldron, it’s OK to just fill it with hot water from the tap—the hotter the better. To this, add magic-potion ingredients such as chili powder (for its blood-red color), cayenne pepper (for its strong magical smell) and any other spices, herbs, dried leaves, sticks, bones, wolfsbane or eyes of newt you may have lying around. Bulk chili powder, etc., can be purchased at warehouse clubs quite inexpensively.
  • * If you want overflowing bubbles, add several good squirts of dishwashing liquid. For some reason, regular (non-Ultra) Dawn is renowned in the bubble industry as the best for producing suds.
  • * A note on cauldrons: Cast iron is the proper material for cauldrons, but for the potions discussed here, pretty much anything will do. Plastic buckets, cooking pots—anything that will hold at least a few gallons of water is fine. Your cauldron should be about half full (or half empty, depending on how you look at it).
  • * After mixing up the stock (cragged sticks and 6- to 10-year-olds are best for mixing), you’re ready to add the magic.
  • * Liquid nitrogen, available from any welding-supply shop (provided you have a certified transportation Dewar to carry it in), is by far the most dramatic bubble maker. A few quarts of it dumped rapidly into a cauldron of hot, soapy water can create a billowing tower of bubbles several feet high in an instant (stand back). Much fun is had by all, but it doesn’t last very long.
  • * Dry ice is much easier to get. Some larger grocery stores and supermarkets actually sell dry ice from chests just like the ones selling regular ice. Call around to find a place that sells it. I don’t know if it’s unique to my town, but where I live, you can also buy dry ice at the blood bank, which is particularly appropriate for Halloween. Ten or 15 pounds should be plenty, and it costs about $1 per pound. Bring it home in a cooler, and use within a day. (Do not try to store dry ice in a freezer. Your freezer is boiling hot compared to the dry ice, which will last longer left alone in a Styrofoam cooler.) Do not lick the dry ice, and handle it with gloves at all times.
  • * Use a hammer to break up the block of dry ice, and add about five pounds at a time to the cauldron. It will bubble gently for quite a while, the bubbles full of spooky smoke. If you have soap in the brew, it will slowly bubble over and spill out in a most satisfying way. If the water gets cold, add hot water.
  • * The last, and most complicated, method of bubbling a cauldron involves injecting compressed air or other gas using a coil of copper pipe with small holes drilled in it. Air from a compressor works great if you want a basically unending stream of bubbles overflowing the cauldron and making a gigantic mess (which is, I should remind you, a good thing if you’re six).
  • * But the ne plus ultra of bubbling cauldrons is, without a doubt, the helium-bubble cauldron. The same copper-pipe bubbler can be connected to a regulator attached to a commercial helium cylinder (available at the same welding-supply shops you get liquid nitrogen from, and from party-supply stores, though they will not have the right regulator). Turn the helium on just fast enough for the bubbles to rise about one or two inches per second.
  • * Any child who has not seen this before will be absolutely floored by it, as will many adults. Do note: It does not work very well in high winds, and the more you stir or otherwise mess with the bubbles, the less well they float. It’s best to leave them alone or just slice them off when you think they are ready to go free. (Just try to enforce that rule once the kids get involved.)
  • * Also note that this is an expensive hobby: A full 240-cubic-foot tank (the largest commonly available size) will last about 15 minutes and cost about $80 to fill.

    (2)The Wailing Corpse

    Morph a flimsy fake skeleton into a mass of hideous rotting flesh with the Corpsification Kit ($35; http://www.goregalore.com) from Gore Galore. Then soup up your dead guy with Chips International’s Halloween Howler/ Superseller ($50; http://www.chips-international.com), a wallet-size gadget that lets you record up to 20 seconds of creaks and moans and then plays them back when triggered by a motion sensor. End result: perfectly timed sounds and petrified visitors.




    The battery- or AC-adapter-operated Superseller comes with a line-in jack and onboard mike for recording, a line-out for amplification, and a reset timer to keep the shrieks from getting repetitive during high-traffic times. Sound effects can be retained indefinitely without power, and a swivel-type mounting bracket makes temporary installation easy. Ready for fright night?

    <<<<<==============================>>>>>

    (3)The Bottomless Pit
    http://www.llund.com/halloween.htm

    You look into the pit, and it appears to have no bottom. As you look deep into the pit you hear the faint voice of a child asking for help. The child has fallen into the pit and cannot get out. While this is a very old illusion, I have never seen detailed construction information on the subject. As I constructed mine, I took pictures and notes and I will attempt to give this information along with pictures of the effect and its construction. I estimate it took about 20 hours to build this effect and cost less than $100 depending on your glass prices.

    Before you attempt to start building it I recommend you read through these instructions and look at all the pictures so you will understand the concept.

    Effect:

    This effect is accomplished with 2 mirrored surfaces reflecting each other. You have probably experienced this in a barbershop or some other place that has mirrors facing each other. I used 2 pieces of glass, 1 was a regular mirror and the other a see through or 2-way mirror as you see in the police station shows on TV. You can see through 1 side but if you’re on the reverse side the glass becomes a mirror. The method of construction allows you to take it apart easily for storage.

    Preparing the 2×4’s to receive the mirrors:

    Cut a groove midway along the entire length of the 2×4. This groove will hold the mirrors in place, make the width of the groove 1 1/2 times the thickness of the mirrors. Make the depth of the groove about 3/4 of an inch. A table saw makes quick work of this job. Use a magic marker to mark the top surface of the 2×4 so you will know which side matches which when the board is cut. Now cut 8 pieces of the 2×4 into these dimensions.
    · 4 pieces 23″
    · 4 pieces 25 5/8″



    Now to assemble the mirror housing:

    Square 2 23″ pieces to the inside edge of one of the 25 5/8″ pieces with the groove to the inside and all pieces facing up. Use screws to attach the 25 5/8″ pieces. Slide the mirror into the slots with the mirrored side up. Now screw the last end piece to the two 25 5/8″ pieces. Make sure everything is square. Repeat the process for the 2-way mirror making sure the mirrored side is facing down. This is important, mark each corner with a number 1-4T for top and 1-4B for bottom. You will be taking the assembly apart for painting and it is best to put it back together the same way it was taken apart. Of course when you do get to painting, make sure you remark them as before. I also added a 3/8″ piece of plywood to the very bottom of the unit for protection of the bottom glass. 4 screws hold it in place.



    Now for the walls:

    When you pick up your 4×8 3/8 CDX piece of plywood, you might as well get it cut to size. My home Depot makes cuts for 50 cents a cut but usually never charges for it at the register. Even if they do, it is cheap enough. You just have to insure that your dimensions are perfectly correct. I made my walls 3′ high and am quite satisfied with that dimension. Then have them cut the 4×8′ sheet lengthwise to the width of the inside of one dimension of the 2×4″ frame. T hen on the remaining piece cut lengthwise to the other dimension subtracting 2 times the width (3/8) of the wall thickness. That is 2 cuts ($1.00). Now have them cut the 2 long pieces into the height of the walls. If you make your walls 3′ high, that is 4 cuts ($2.00). I painted the walls a flat black before attaching the faux stones.



    Attaching Brackets:

    To hold the sides together I used short lengths of 1×2 pine. Cut 16 pieces about six inches long. This will make up the 8 brackets for each corner of the top and bottom. Put a dab of waterproof glue on the end of one piece and form an “L” shaped bracket with another piece. Do this for all 8 brackets. After the glue dries, pre-drill and put a couple of screws in for strength. Now lay the assembled mirrored bottom on the floor and place one of the exact fit sides of the wall to the inside of the 2×4 frame. Have someone hold it in place and glue and screw one of the brackets on the wall so that the bracket rests on the top surface of the 2×4. Repeat for the other side. Mark the wall so it can be placed back into the same position on the 2×4 base. Now repeat the procedure for the opposite side wall. Now put both bracketed walls back in the base and slide in one of the remaining side walls. This wall should fit between the other 2 walls. Now put 2 screws (no glue) through the bracket into the side wall. Repeat this procedure for the remaining side. Then do the same for the remaining wall. Repeat this whole procedure for the top, making sure that the bracket is flush with the bottom of the top 2×4.



    Installing the light:

    On one side wall, measure to the exact center and drill a hole large enough to install the pigtail wires from a light bulb socket.

    Aligning the illusion:

    Assemble the unit and plug in the light. Look down into the pit and check the alignment of the lights. Hopefully they will appear to go straight down. If they are off, you will have to install shims on the top of the upper brackets to align everything. Use some thin wood stock like a paint stirrer or whatever. Once it is aligned, glue the shims in place.

    Making the stone walls:

    Measure one side wall, the walls should all be almost the same size. Transfer the measurements to the 2×8 sheet of pink foam and with a magic marker draw about 15-20 random stones on the foam. Number each stone starting with the lower left and going to the top. Cut all 4 pieces of foam to the same size. I attached all 4 pieces of foam together and cut out the stones on my band saw. After cutting, I marked front and back of each piece with their numbers. I have a bench sander and I sanded the edge of each piece to simulate a stone. Paint the stones to your liking, I used gray paint with splashes of white and black. I’m sure it can be done better, but it looks good in the final effect. Remember to use latex paint, otherwise solvents may melt the foam. I used liquid nails construction adhesive to attach the stones to the inside walls. If you want, you can repeat the procedure for the outside walls, but if I had to do over again I wouldn’t do the outside, too much work.



    Adding sound:

    I picked up a small radio with a tape deck for $5 at a garage sale. Get a 30-second loop tape from radio shack or some other source. Have a child record a help message on the loop tape. This is just one way to do it. Conceal the recorder at the base of the pit.

    Some tips:

    · People have a tendency to lean on the 2×4 top when they look into the pit. You might want to build a second “leaning” structure around the pit. If any of you have any suggestions e-mail me.

    · I was thinking of mounting the effect at about a 45-degree angle on the grass and using bales of hay to conceal the bottom of the pit. This way, you can construct a fence to keep people from getting to close to the glass.

    · Since the top and bottom are easily removed from the side walls, I was thinking of running some temporary 2×2 straps from the top 2×4 to the bottom 2×4 to tie the unit together. I also did this.

    Material list:

    - 2, 10′ 2×4 (these must be very straight and will be used for the mirror supports)
    - 1, 4×8 sheet of 3/8 CDX plywood ( for the walls )
    - 2×2′ mirror
    - 2×2′ 2-way mirror. If you run into a problem getting the glass, try Alert Glass, 631-666-7000 and ask for Gino.
    - 2, 2×8x3/4 foam insulating panels ( to make fake stones, I used the pink kind from Home Depot )
    - 1X2 pine for brackets
    - Screws, I like wallboard screws.
    - 1, 100W light bulb and socket.
    - 2 tubes of Liquid Nails construction adhesive.
    - Latex paint. Caution!! paint with solvents will melt the foam.

    Tools needed to build it:

    Router or table saw to cut the grooves for the mirrors.
    Screwdriver.
    Drill and bits.
    Paint brushes.
    Band saw or skill saw.
