  1. In Australia, Fiji and NZ — every “Telephone / Power” pole is made of rebar concrete.

    Yes, in some remote areas you will find the odd series of wood poles, but rebar concrete poles make up about 80% of the poles in common use.

    So, no matter where the price of copper goes — the poles will not be falling in Australasia.

    Canada has not made the move to concrete rebar poles, in spite of the fact that its forests have been substantially depleted.

    This is sooooo 2005. Copper theft has been happening for years in our state thanks to all the methamphetamine addicts. Some guy was electrocuted a few years ago while doing this. For meth-heads, it’s either theft or gumming some genitalia to pay the dealer. Now we “regular people” get to find out about the horrors of our addiction to easy credit to fund our Made in China lifestyles. Gotta pay the dealer, oops, I mean banksters, whoa I meant bankers.

  4. Porn Site Airs At Indonesia’s Parliament

    (AP) JAKARTA, Indonesia (AP) – Indonesian lawmakers and journalists got a shock when an online porn video blazed across dozens of computer monitors outside the press room at Parliament.

    Witnesses say it took security guards 10 minutes to shut down the computers Monday.

    The touch-screen monitors are used by visitors to check the Parliament agenda and other political activities.

    House Secretary-General Nining Indra said the unwanted interruption was probably caused by someone trying to access a porn site on the computer system.

    She said officials would use close circuit TV footage to investigate.

    Indonesia is the world’s most populous Muslim nation. Authorities have been trying to crack down on porn ahead of the holy fasting month of Ramadan that starts next week.

  5. Ex-CIA agent confirms US ties with Jundullah
    Sat, 24 Oct 2009 02:37:41 GMT
    A former Central Intelligence Agency officer has confirmed US’ relations with the terrorist group Jundullah, despite the CIA knowing that the group has close links with the al-Qaeda.

    “American intelligence has also had contact with Jundullah. But that contact, as Iran almost certainly knows, was confined to intelligence-gathering on the country,” Robert Baer, a former Middle East CIA field officer wrote on the Time.com, IRNA reported early on Saturday.

    However, he noted that the US-Jundullah relationship “was never formalized, and contact was sporadic.”

    The news comes amid US denial of any involvement in a recent terrorist attack in Sistan-Baluchestan province in southeastern Iran, which Jundullah claimed responsibility for.

    “I’ve been told that the Bush Administration at one point considered Jundullah as a piece in a covert-action campaign against Iran, but the idea was quickly dropped because Jundullah was judged uncontrollable and too close to al-Qaeda. There was no way to be certain that Jundullah would not throw the bombs

    Julian Assange’s team wants the Pentagon’s aid in reviewing a new batch of U.S. military secrets it plans to publish soon—and the Pentagon is reviewing WikiLeaks’ request.

    Rusty guillotine syndrome or not, I’m very dubious about all this. Who pays for all his jetting around the world? If Assange is so ‘dangerous to National Security’, and is supposedly wanted, why is he giving public press conferences in London when he could so easily be picked up by M16? He’s not exactly out of the spotlight.

    A 60% drop in house price is precisely whats needed in the UK anyway, I would say 70% would be perfect with no bounce afterwards.

    When I left Florida 2 years ago there were unfinished sub divisions that had the copper wire from the street lights removed. In one division all about 1500 feet, scrap value at the time was nearly $3 per pound, total haul of copper $450 bucks.

  38. Copper is being stolen over here too, in huge quantum, especially from the railway system, it is becoming a big problem. Sadly in many cases it is foreigners from East Europe that is doing the stealing (at least those being caught is comes from there).
    I wish it could be different, like in the case of the Polish people which had a bad reputation (rightfully so) for many years but now that has changed and people have a generally positive view of them, they work good, they are willing to blend in, they want to create a better life for themselves, but there are still those few rotten apples remaining which continue to fuck up for the rest.

  39. Haha
    My dad was a copper thief when he worked for the Tele company in Norway back when it was a monopoly. The stole the large wheels of wire and burnt off the rubber up in the mmountains :P

  40. Oeps! Huffington mist it “Forget stealing lead off church roofs” Churches have copper lightning rods stupid Huff!

  41. @Mother Earth

    You’re so gullible….you know how much energy it costs to repair this stuff let alone your burning comp writing this nonsense.

    They did this in the Netherlands too and we weren’t even in a crises back than. They stole the copper lightning rods from churches (snoot will like this story).

  42. Fiatmentalist

    “as the war 1984 is carefully managed”

    Whats carefully managed is the perception

    Remember when the weather was just the weather?

    But you didnt answer my question ME. What should we do about climate change?

  43. nearly 1200

  44. @Mother Earth,
    it won’t reduce emissions, the only thing that reduces emissions is burning less of the energy source and slowing down the turbines and they won’t do that because a few poles are down. They probably don’t even do that for Earth Hour or if there’s a major blackout.

  49. I don’t think overhead lines are copper wires. I prefer to drink my copper using KDF media water filters. Not a commercial for the product, I just learned a ton about water treatment over the years and the KDF stuff is cool. A filter made from copper and zinc shavings that cleans water automagically.

    I once read humans would be worth 6 million if you harvested all their tissues organs and blood, I hope they stick to copper.

  50. Where I live they are taking the man hole covers, storm drain covers, utility equipment covers. They are gutting homes, especially new construction, of copper wiring and plumbing pipes. The plumbers have started using pex, an approved plastic pipe, eliminating copper. People are getting pretty feisty.

  53. @Dedo

    Well, i said ”Climate change turning deadly is unmanageable”

    You say “Mother has admitted climate change is unmanageable” which I have not as in my statement it is only unmanageable if it turns deadly. But that nuance should be expected to be lost on someone of your finesse..

  54. well they steel bronzes clocks and a stature of rodin in holland for the bronze….

  59. @Fiatmentalist

    ‘Unless you can grasp that climate change is the permament war that Orwell was on about.’

    That analogy doesn’t work, as the war 1984 is carefully managed. Climate change turning deadly is unmangeable, not a team player, behaving like a ton of bricks without support.

  61. @Dedo
    lol, of course. the system is inescapable while we have to pay for property. Can’t even disappear into the bush w/out a park ranger telling you to move on.
    But if you try to have an argument using common sense while an academic argues using a model they’re gonna feel superior and not a lot will change them, besides they paid money for that education so they must be right.
    Doesn’t mean either is right or wrong btw.

  62. @Mother & Snoop,…….YAAAAWN,…you two don’t half talk some tripe !
    (That’s cockney BTW, for nonsense)

    And snoop,…how the fk would you know if you were indoctrinated or not?
    huh,….do tell,..
    I mean, we all understand what you’re saying,..so by deduction,..you’re as dumb as the rest of us,….hey stasi ? ; )

  63. Fiatmentalist

    @ME

    Unless you can grasp that climate change is the permament war that Orwell was on about.

    Reducing CO2 emissions wont be enough will it? Eventually there be so many humans that the resource demand will itself have an effect to cause more climate change.

    So what is your solution to climate change ME?

    On a side note about decivilisation, the wildlife in Zimbabwe is decimated following their economic collapse. Hunger does that.

  64. @ Mother Earth,
    yes, most ideologies like to exclude the environment as a non entity apart from infinite consumption models. That’s the disconnect between reality and what people study imo. The top % population who are super rich know exactly that and use the models to encourage the indoctrinated public to support their objectives in the name of the model, which gives those indoctrinated a feeling of superiority over those who haven’t studied that area or w/ever.

  65. sherbert my dreamy creamie cotango princess, leave max, I have many talents worthy of a perky like yourself. let us bathe in the sunlight of a scorched earth. pie abounds , that is how i roll along

  66. 1984 is visionary, but it does not provide a model of stability it pretends to offer. Merely a temporary attempt thwarted by the resulting ecological holocauset. I think my decivilization approach is superior.

  67. That seems to be the word on the street.

    http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20100804/ap_on_bi_ge/us_gulf_oil_spill
    ON THE GULF OF MEXICO – In a significant step toward stopping the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history, BP said Wednesday mud that was forced down its blown-out well was holding back the flow of crude in the Gulf of Mexico and it was in a “static condition.”

    Workers stopped pumping mud in after about eight hours of their “static kill” procedure and were monitoring the well to ensure it remained stable, BP said.

    “It’s a milestone,” BP PLC spokeswoman Sheila Williams said. “It’s a step toward the killing of the well.”

    The next step would be deciding whether to cement the well, Williams said.

  70. thanks @Geekboy,
    I love reading some David McWilliams stuff.
    The problem with govt is it usually locks in higher prices. So when prices should fall and give the smaller guy a go, the govt keeps them at the bidded up prices and taxes go up if there is a smaller tax base in a time of higher unemployment. The inflation becomes institutionalised, at least for that industry.

    re: BP story,
    we had some lunatic conservative in the local paper (in Sydney) saying it wasn’t such a bad environmental disaster, only 1296 pelicans have been killed. Andrew Bolt is his name, I don’t read his articles as I try to avoid him altogether. Now the leak is tapped the whitewash continues, like it never really happened – doublethink in our time. He used it as an attack vehicle on Obama. WTF would this guy in Sydney, Australia know . But he got his way as he obviously wanted to grab attention.

  71. We’re the losers in silent takeover of democracy
    By David McWilliams
    http://www.davidmcwilliams.ie/2010/08/04/were-the-losers-in-silent-takeover-of-democracy

    The US is not the only country whose very democratic credentials are being threatened by the governing mindset; we, the citizens of Ireland, are similarly threatened.
    In Ireland we have a governing mindset which, while not a military-industrial complex, is a politico-mandarin complex. Because the State in Ireland is by far the biggest single buyer of services in the country, it is enormously powerful and its contracts are enormously profitable for the companies doing business with it. It becomes extremely difficult, therefore, to know where the interest of the State ends and where the interest of the citizens begins. The mandarins who run the State like it like that.

    Solar activity may be on the rise again, the Sun is waking up

    It seems as if the Sun may be going through a new cycle as a powerful plasma eruption took place on Sunday morning.

    “It’s the first major Earth-directed eruption in quite some time.” Said astronomer Leon Golub of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. This coronal mass ejection (CME) is directed straight at Earth and could be reaching us as early as August 4th, said Golub.

    The CME was caught by NASA’s Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO), which is a spacecraft that was launched in February. SDO produces better than HD quality images and provides views at a variety of wavelengths.
