It would be smarter to smelt the Platinum yourself too, Dont you think?.. I guess those new shinny nuts make a difference.. How many makes are bolted? roughly..
most imports are bolted and flanged...I dont steal them though...I was kidding http://video.citynews.ca/?fr_story=7bc57d9e1f657903d777a8007571d6c8da2863fa&rf=sitemap ....dont bother with the aftermarket ones..only factory OEM ones are valuable
Crazed mutant squirrels are produced by pollutants of electrical "generation" plants... Electricity is a scam devised by the famous American plagiarist, Thomas Hernia Edison in the late 19th Century. The basis of Edison's scam was his discovery of small gremlin-like creatures called "electrons", which could be coaxed to travel down lengths of copper wire and perform useful tasks along the way. He put together a company called Consummate Edison, Con Ed for short, which offered to sell electrons. But here is where the scam came in: because electrons are so small they can only be seen by bacteria who have their own microscopes, Edison devised a scheme whereby customers were connected with not only a "live" cable which allowed the electrons they bought to travel into their homes, but also a discreetly named "neutral" cable, down which the electrons were sucked back to the electricity factory. Customers could thereby be unwittingly sold the same electrons time after time. “We will make electricity so cheap that only the Muslim Mosque will burn candles, and that only for show.” ~ Thomas Alva Edison on Electricity Edison's scam quickly made him filthy rich, and he was able to spend the rest of his days inventing things like flexible teeth, fur-lined salamanders, and silent radio. see the whole version here.. http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Electricity
i wish i was a kitchen appliance namer.. cuz all you do is take what the appliance does and ad an "er" to is.. "what does this do?" "it blends food".. "ok.. blender"
http://www.wimp.com/wirelesselectricity/ TECH 1: Inductive Coupling Availability: April >> THE FIRST WIRELESS POWERING SYSTEM to market is an inductive device, much like the one Tesla saw in his dreams, but a lot smaller. It looks like a mouse pad and can send power through the air, over a distance of up to a few inches. A powered coil inside that pad creates a magnetic field, which as Faraday predicted, induces current to flow through a small secondary coil that's built into any portable device, such as a flashlight, a phone, or a BlackBerry. The electrical current that then flows in that secondary coil charges the device's onboard rechargeable battery. (That iPhone in your pocket has yet to be outfitted with this tiny coil, but, as we'll see, a number of companies are about to introduce products that are.) The practical benefit of this approach is huge. You can drop any number of devices on the charging pad, and they will recharge -- wirelessly. No more tangle of power cables or jumble of charging stations. What's more, because you are invisible to the magnetic fields created by the system, no electricity will flow into you if you stray between device and pad. Nor are there any exposed "hot" metal connections. And the pads are smart: Their built-in coils are driven by integrated circuits, which know if the device sitting on them is authorized to receive power, or if it needs power at all. So you won't charge your car keys. Or overcharge your flashlight. Sometime ago they people in jail for talking about free electricity..
Michael Faraday first synthesized tetrachloroethene in 1821 by thermal decomposition of hexachloroethane into tetrachloroethene and chlorine.. Michael Faraday, (22 September 1791 – 25 August 1867) was an English chemist and physicist (or natural philosopher, in the terminology of the time) who contributed to the fields of electromagnetism and electrochemistry. Faraday studied the magnetic field around a conductor carrying a DC electric current, and established the basis for the magnetic field concept in physics. He discovered electromagnetic induction, diamagnetism, and laws of electrolysis. He established that magnetism could affect rays of light and that there was an underlying relationship between the two phenomena. His inventions of electromagnetic rotary devices formed the foundation of electric motor technology, and it was largely due to his efforts that electricity became viable for use in technology. As a chemist, Faraday also discovered benzene, investigated the clathrate hydrate of chlorine, invented an early form of the bunsen burner and the system of oxidation numbers, and popularized terminology such as anode, cathode, electrode, and ion. Although Faraday received little formal education and knew little of higher mathematics, such as calculus, he was one of the most influential scientists in history. Some historians of science refer to him as the best experimentalist in the history of science. The SI unit of capacitance, the farad, is named after him, as is the Faraday constant, the charge on a mole of electrons (about 96,485 coulombs). Faraday's law of induction states that a magnetic field changing in time creates a proportional electromotive force. Faraday was the first and foremost Fullerian Professor of Chemistry at the Royal Institution of Great Britain, a position to which he was appointed for life. Faraday was highly religious; he was a member of the Sandemanian Church, a Christian sect founded in 1730 which demanded total faith and commitment. Biographers have noted that "a strong sense of the unity of God and nature pervaded Faraday's life and work." Contents Michael Faraday was born in Newington Butts, now part of the London Borough of Southwark; but then a suburban part of Surrey, one mile south of London Bridge. His family was not well off. His father, James, was a member of the Sandemanian sect of Christianity. James Faraday had come to London around 1790 from Outhgill in Westmorland, where he had been the village blacksmith. The young Michael Faraday, one of four children, having only the most basic of school educations, had to largely educate himself. At fourteen he became apprenticed to a local bookbinder and bookseller George Riebau and, during his seven-year apprenticeship, he read many books, including Isaac Watts' The Improvement of the Mind, and he enthusiastically implemented the principles and suggestions that it contained. He developed an interest in science, especially in electricity. In particular, he was inspired by the book Conversations in Chemistry by Jane Marcet. At the age of twenty, in 1812, at the end of his apprenticeship, Faraday attended lectures by the eminent English chemist Humphry Davy of the Royal Institution and Royal Society, and John Tatum, founder of the City Philosophical Society. Many tickets for these lectures were given to Faraday by William Dance (one of the founders of the Royal Philharmonic Society). Afterwards, Faraday sent Davy a three hundred page book based on notes taken during the lectures. Davy's reply was immediate, kind, and favourable. When Davy damaged his eyesight in an accident with nitrogen trichloride, he decided to employ Faraday as a secretary. When John Payne, one of the Royal Institution's assistants, was sacked, Sir Humphry Davy was asked to find a replacement. He appointed Faraday as Chemical Assistant at the Royal Institution on 1 March 1813 . Sir Humphry Davy, 1830 engraving based on the painting by Sir Thomas Lawrence (1769-1830) In the class-based English society of the time, Faraday was not considered a gentleman. When Davy went on a long tour to the continent in 1813–15, his valet did not wish to go. Faraday was going as Davy's scientific assistant, and was asked to act as Davy's valet until a replacement could be found in Paris. Faraday was forced to fill the role of valet as well as assistant throughout the trip. Davy's wife, Jane Apreece, refused to treat Faraday as an equal (making him travel outside the coach, eat with the servants, etc.) and generally made Faraday so miserable that he contemplated returning to England alone and giving up science altogether. The trip did, however, give him access to the European scientific elite and a host of stimulating ideas.
Classified information is sensitive information to which access is restricted by law or regulation to particular classes of people. A formal security clearance is required to handle classified documents or access classified data. The clearance process requires a satisfactory background investigation. There are typically several levels of sensitivity, with differing clearance requirements. This sort of hierarchical system of secrecy is used by virtually every national government. The act of assigning the level of sensitivity to data is called data classification. Some corporations and non-government organizations also assign sensitive information to multiple levels of protection, either from a desire to protect trade secrets, or because of laws and regulations governing various matters such as personal privacy, sealed legal proceedings and the timing of financial information releases.

um no Im a squirrel .. Wire its not just for Transmission lines, it makes a great hula hoop.. wonder how much electricity this generates?
High-flying workmen at home near power lines A helicopter hovering near power lines attracts attention. A person sitting on a platform under the helicopter attracts even more attention. A person touching that power line while sitting on a platform under the helicopter attracts LOTS of attention. That was the situation on Highway 10 southeast of Elk River during the morning rush. That was also the situation on I-494 in Plymouth for most of Monday morning. Linemen from AGROTORS Inc from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania were servicing power lines owned by Great River Energy. Early in the day Don Lindsay installed a new marker ball on the transmission line crossing the Mississippi River southeast of Elk River. Marker balls are intended to make transmission lines more visible to any low flying aircraft. Later Monday morning, Lindsay and his colleague Jeff Fluharty took turns installing Swan Diverters on a newly constructed 115 KV transmission line paralleling I-494 in Plymouth. Swan Diverters are curlicues of bright yellow wire-like stuff, swollen in the middle and installed on the static, or shield, line atop poles planted in or near wetlands. You see, when waterfowl fly near wetlands, they're frequently concentrating on landing or taking off. The bright yellow diverters are intended to draw attention to the power line so birds are less likely to hit it. And the only way to install them is by helicopter. "Nowdays, especially in the summer, with the loading, the transmission grid has not kept up with the growth of the country," said lineman Don Lindsay. "More and more, we're having to do lines energized. That's AGROTOR's specialty," he said. That startled reporter Ken Speake. He assumed electrical power to the transmission lines was turned off before anybody worked on them. "Nope," said Lindsay. "We wear a stainless steel carbon fiber suit and actually work on the line while they're energized." The procedure was always the same. As the helicopter neared the line, the lineman would reach out and clamp a so-called "bonding" wire making the fame of the helicopter part of the transmission line electrical circuit. "There's somewhat of a sensation when you bond on," said Lindsay, "It's kinda like bees flying around you." "[You feel it] "up the back of your neck. It's like static electricity... on the cuffs of your flight suit... around your neck," said pilot Jim Holmes. Both men say that's the only safe way to service energized electrical transmission lines. Pilot Holmes says hovering near electrical lines contradicts everything he learned in flying school. "It's kinda weird," he says. "The whole time you train to be a pilot, they tell you to stay away from power lines and we spend all of our days hovering around power lines," he said. Hovering is the first thing a helicopter pilot learns in flying school. The pilot reminisces. "Hovering is one of those skills that, when you're becoming a new pilot, you fight it, you fight it, you fight it. And then one day you get in the helicopter and something just clicks. They call it, "Hitting your hover button." And once you do, you can do it forever and it's really not all that bad." "I hover better if I don't think about it, to tell you God's honest truth," he says. By noon, they were finished installing 66 Swan Diverters and one Warning Ball. The Gettysburg Pennsylvania company sends crews all over the United States to do this work. From Plymouth, some of the crew were heading to Devil's Lake, North Dakota to install more Swan Diverters. Other crew members were scheduled to fly to Tampa Florida to do more power line work. They'll be back in the Twin Cities next month, installing more warning balls near the Minneapolis-Saint Paul International Airport, and more Swan Diverters in Eden Prairie. And, likely, they'll attract lots of attention. They always do. People just find it surprising to see a man touching a high voltage electrical transmission line while sitting on a little platform beneath helicopter hovering near a power line. http://www.line-man.com/videos/aerial-videos/high-power-line-helicopter-marker-ball-replacement.html
