MooPig Solutions Department :: "ALERT! Solution in the Seas"

Holy Grail of Energy Independence
Re-directed Article by Pat Darnell  |  June 15, 2014  |  Bryan TX

[Picture LINK] Navy researchers at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory (NRL), Materials Science and Technology Division, demonstrate proof-of-concept of novel NRL technologies developed for the recovery of carbon dioxide (CO2) and hydrogen (H2) from seawater and conversion to a liquid hydrocarbon fuel.

Here's a short article on the newest development in solving global warming by the US NAVY. You won't believe what you are reading. I am posting this one article now but will be looking around for who, what, when, how, and why of this spectacular development.

It's hydrocarbons from sea water, folks.

– The U.S. Navy Just Announced The End Of Big Oil And No One Noticed: "People have been asking for more details about the process. This is from the Naval Research Laboratory’s official press release:

"Using an innovative and proprietary NRL electrolytic cation exchange module (E-CEM), both dissolved and bound CO2 are removed from seawater at 92 percent efficiency by re-equilibrating carbonate and bicarbonate to CO2 and simultaneously producing H2. The gases are then converted to liquid hydrocarbons by a metal catalyst in a reactor system."

"...In plain English, fuel is made from hydrocarbons (hydrogen and carbon). This process pulls both hydrogen and carbon from seawater and recombines them to make fuel. The process can be used on air as well but seawater holds about 140 times more carbon dioxide in it so it’s better suited for carbon collection."

CONCLUSION
"Make it so," says Captain Picard.

MooPig 'Stuff No One Wants to Hear About' Department :: "Fukushima UPDATE"

" ... The fallout of those four days spent off the Fukushima coast has been tragic to many of the 5,000 sailors who were there.

At least 70 have been stricken with some form of radiation sickness, and of those, “at least half . . . are suffering from some form of cancer,” their lawyer, Paul Garner, told The Post Saturday.

“We’re seeing leukemia, testicular cancer and unremitting gynecological bleeding requiring transfusions and other intervention,” said Garner, who is representing 51 crew members suing the Tokyo Electric Power Co., which operates the Fukushima Daiichi energy plant. ... " (Laura Italiano and Kerry Murtha. December 22, 2013. LINK)

CONCLUSION
MooPig Litigation Department doesn't think the Japanese Earthquake-Tsunami-Nuclear Disaster problem will be solved by law suits. But it is a start.

MooPig's Debate Watch :: "Comments From the Street"

[Picture LINK] ...  "WASHINGTON, — You watched the conventions, you’ve been bombarded by political ads, you’ve seen the candidates umpteen times on the evening news, and you may have even heard President Obama and Mitt Romney speak from the stump in person. And in the last couple of weeks you have seen the polls in swing states shift dramatically in favor of President Obama.
Now with less than a few weeks before Election Day, November 6, comes that watershed moment, the Presidential Debates. It can be make or break time for a candidate, especially for Mitt Romney, who has had a bad few weeks. ... "

But what keeps us on our feet
Is three squares a day we eat

Eat up old boy
Eat up skulduggery
Scrape and grind; repeat ten times
Fix the hull 'n plug her ye’

but at high noon clean your plate
Eat up and clean your plate

The Navy cannot wait!

Retrieved from Email by Pat Darnell


Navy Petty Officer Mike Monsoor PO2 \ EOD2, Explosive Ordnance Disposal, Mike Monsoor, a Navy EOD Technician, was awarded the Congressional Medal of Honor posthumously for covering a live grenade in Iraq, giving his life to save his fellow Seals.

Though Mike was not a Navy SEAL, he was EOD.. he bargained his own life to save nearby Navy SEALS. It is heroic what he did, in the most ardent virtue of selflessness.

During Mike Monsoor's funeral in San Diego, as his coffin was being moved from the hearse to the grave site at Ft.. Rosecrans National Cemetery, SEAL's were lined up on both sides of the pallbearers route

As Mike Monsoor's coffin passed, each SEAL, having removed his gold Trident from his uniform, slapped it down embedding the Trident in the wooden coffin.

The slaps were audible from across the cemetery; by the time the coffin arrived grave side, it looked as though it had a gold inlay from all the Tridents pinned to it.

A fitting send-off for a fellow warrior hero, though it is a stiff price to pay.

This should be front-page news instead of the drivel we see every day. Since the media won't make this news, I choose to make it news by forwarding it.

I am very proud of our military. If you are proud too, please pass this on. If not then rest assured that these fine men and women of our military continue to serve and protect.

Poetry Corner

First posted a few days ago, on Cinco de Mayo, this romanticized life of a swab is one of my notions about "keeping" a sense of humor when the going gets rough. Dad was in the Navy, WWII, and he did waken us with "Man your brooms" on mornings when he was not running late for early meetings.

I skipped serving in the armed forces during Vietnam, by turning eighteen just months before the draft ended.

You might notice, I keep revising -- trying to create a better phrasing, rhythm and bounce... so it is a work-in-progress. pd
