Jon Stewart's (The Daily Show) Economic Plan

On the daily Show last night Jon Stewart "announced" his trickle-up economic stimulus plan.

That is give the money to people who owe it for the sole reason of paying their unpaid debt.

Then the banks will have money, mortgage companies will be OK and then they can start lending again. (I guess hopefully this time more wisely or better regulated)

My addition:

The people who don't have any unpaid debt, meaning they are not behind in their payments, would get some money for the sole purpose of going out and buying something made in America.

More evidence for ID in Biology- The ribosome is a genetic compiler

The ribosome is a genetic compiler!

The enzyme machine that translates a cell's DNA code into the proteins of life is nothing if not an editorial perfectionist.

Think about it-

What happens to a newly written or modified computer code that has an error? All new and modified codes have to go through a compiler.

A compiler is nothing if not an editorial perfectionist!

I bet if we were to watch we would see the compiler doing its thing right up to the point the error occurs and then spits it out much faster than if the code was OK, ie error free.

Biologists need to be introduced to and experience computer science.

Then this sort of discovery wouldn’t be so “shocking”.

Compiler- source code in, object code out. Ribosome- mRNA in (string of nucleotides), polypeptide out (string of amino acids).

The Interstate Water Distribution System- Phase 1

This is a follow-up to the Interstate Canal System:

Phase 1

Phase 1 would set up the country in zones, and to install controlled spillways along major rivers and their tributaries in those zones, starting with known flood zones.

These spillways would lead to (holding) reservoirs for future use including redistribution to/ from another zone (Phase 2).

Another thing to think about is if the ice sheets melt and ocean levels rise, we could mediate that rise by controlling how much water flows back via our river system by using these spillways to divert some of that flow.

Diversion rate = ice sheet melting rate
