Flo~Cait has more than a decade of successfully designing and manufacturing state of the art material separation systems. Useful in a wide variety of industrial applications, our patented material separator makes it possible for most bulk debris to be sorted and recycled economically and efficiently. Each system is designed for superior performance and is built to last using top quality components and fabrication techniques. Once sorted, your unusable material by-products can be recycled or sold for additional income. Not only does the Flo-Cait give a solid solution to your bulk debris problem, it actually helps you increase profitability for your business. Flo~Cait has successfully sorted construction and demolition debris, logging debris, tailings from screening top soil, hog fuel, coal from rock, and removed contaminants, such as shingles, roofing paper, plastic, and small wood pieces from crushed concrete.
We currently have no practical way to harness anti-matter into a bomb and can only isolate anti-matter in a particle accelerator and store it for a short time. The power source is a reactor. Inside the reactor, element 115 is bombarded with a proton, which plugs into the nucleus of the 115 atom and becomes element 116, which immediately decays and releases or radiates small amounts of anti-matter. The anti-matter is released in a vacuum into a tuned tube, which keeps it from reacting with the matter that surrounds it. It is then directed toward the gaseous matter target at the end of the tube. The matter, which in this case is the gas, and the anti-matter, collide and annihilate totally converting to energy. The heat from this reaction is converted into electrical energy in a near one hundred percent efficient thermoelectric generator. This is a device that converts heat directly into electrical energy. Many of our satellites and space probes use thermoelectric generators, but their efficiency is very, very low.
This is a vintage tube radio I bought off eBay, refurbished and gave to my wife as a birthday present. It's a 5-tube, 1937 Emerson AL130. A small PCB AM transmitter was built from scratch and clips to the radio's antenna. This effectively gives the radio a 1/8" audio-in that can be connected to any device (like the iPod Shuffle I used here). As an added bonus, I pre-loaded the MP3 player with over 8 hours of radio programming (music, drama, commercials, and war-time news bulletins, etc.) from 1937-1950. The Shuffle is perfectly suited for this task since it is a simple On/Off operation and randomly runs through the play list just like a DJ would.

Arguably one of the most important documentary series ever made, The Nazis: A Warning from History sets out to show that, far from being a uniquely German aberration, Nazism fed upon and was fostered by the prejudices and lemming-like inclinations of ordinary people. Although culminating with the atrocities of the Holocaust, these programmes are equally good on the motives of otherwise perfectly normal people, who needed only the tacit encouragement of the regime to perpetrate horrors against their enemies, their neighbours, or their own family. When confronted with evidence of their Nazi past, elderly former party members are often unable to find any other justification for their actions than simply that they could get away with it. Far from being a monolithic dictatorship which compelled the citizenry to act in rigidly prescribed ways, the Nazi state just allowed people to give their worst inclinations free reign. Hitler, it turns out, was a profoundly lazy man who rarely got out of bed before midday, and preferred to leave affairs of state to sort themselves out. He subscribed fervently to the doctrine of survival of the fittest as applied to all social and political matters, and actively encouraged in-fighting among his subordinates. The result was an organisational vacuum at the centre of state, which super-ambitious acolytes were only too eager to fill, often acting on nothing more than the Fuhrer's off-the-cuff remarks. One small example is revealing: after reading ...
