Single-stream recycling gets the go-ahead | Concord Monitor

Single-stream recycling gets the go-ahead | Concord Monitor:

"Mark Decoteau, Waterville Valley's town manager, said the town signed up because the potential savings from increased recycling outweigh the additional cost of shipping materials south.

"If we can set up a single-stream recycling program, we're hopeful that we can reduce our waste stream by as much as 50 percent, which means we're sending only half the trash up to Bethlehem, where we currently send our solid waste," Decoteau said."

Mark Steyn: Obama’s magical thinking on green jobs | obama, steyn, green - Opinion - The Orange County Register

Mark Steyn: Obama’s magical thinking on green jobs | obama, steyn, green - Opinion - The Orange County Register:

"German taxpayers subsidize “green jobs” in their wind-power industry to the tune of a quarter of a million dollars per worker per year: $250,000 per “green job” would pay for a lot of real jobs, even in the European Union. Last year, it was revealed that the Spanish government paid $800,000 for every “green job” on a solar panel assembly line. I had assumed carelessly that this must be a world record in terms of taxpayer subsidy per fraudulent “green job.” But it turns out those cheapskate Spaniards with their lousy nickel-and-dime “green jobs” subsidy just weren’t thinking big. The Obama administration’s $38.6 billion “clean technology” program was supposed to “create or save” 65,000 jobs. Half the money has been spent – $17.2 billion – and we have 3,545 jobs to show for it. That works out to an impressive $4,851,904.09 per “green job.” A world record! Take that, you loser Spaniards! USA! USA!"

"Indeed, the one sure way to ensure the collapse of the fiat dollar system and the return of the gold standard is to follow the advice of Roubini, Posen and Krugman when it comes to monetary and fiscal policy."

VDH's Private Papers:: The California Corridor:

"Civilization ends when the pampered beneficiaries of the hard work of the now dead have the luxury of ignoring how hard it was — and is — to build shelter from the elements, to erect public buildings from scrub, to grow food and sprout farms from sage. Our contemporary criminals are protected from the elemental struggle and so have the indulgence to gnaw away at civilization’s veneer — and we, in our conspiratorial silence about them, likewise forgot that to keep still about the destruction of the work of others is to be complicit in it."

How did Solyndra get a sweetheart interest rate? « Hot Air:
"The White House has to explain why it overruled the FFB’s auditors and ignored the warnings from appraisers while fast-tracking over half a billion dollars to a teetering company at loan rates far below what FFB charged other companies.  Obama also needs an explanation of why his bundler George Kaiser will get his capital back before taxpayers see the first dime of that $535 million that got destroyed in Solyndra’s collapse."

Don't Give The TSA An Easy Time Of Violating Your Rights - Advice Goddess Blog

Advice Goddess Blog:

"I can hold back the tears...hang tough...but as I was made to "assume the position" on a rubber mat like a common criminal, I thought fast. I decided that these TSA lackeys who serve the government in violating our rights just don't deserve my quiet compliance. And no, I won't go through the scanner (do you trust the government that they're safe?) and allow a government employee to see me naked in the course of normal and totally ordinary business travel: flying from Los Angeles to Binghamton, New York, to attend an evolutionary psychology conference for my work."
