they took the 4th Amendment, I was quiet because I didn't deal drugs.
When they took the 6th Amendment, I was quiet because I am innocent.
When they took the 2nd Amendment, I was quiet because I don't own a gun.
Now they have taken the 1st Amendment, and I can only be quiet."

Heat Your Home With 240 Recycled Aluminum Cans
Heat your home with recycled aluminum cans.
It’s a simple idea, and one that many will look at and say, “Why didn’t I think
of that?”
This 240 can unit reportedly heats up to
10,000 BTUs or more according to the company and is “Maintenance free”.
via: Youtube – “Jim Meaney, owner
of Cansolair Inc. displays how he converts pop cans into a powerful solar
heating panel.”
“…Cansolair
Inc. has developed a forced convection solar heating unit called
the Model RA 240 SOLAR MAX. A dwelling of 1000 square feet can have a complete
air change in 1.5 hours. Working experience indicates that comfortable room
temperature can be maintained in a 1000 square foot dwelling with 15 minutes of
sunlight per hour…” via: http://www.solarrochester.com/cansolair.asp
UPDATE: A single unit may not heat an
average sized American home (1500-2500 square feet) by itself. It will however
supplement the heating.
Specifically
speaking, a unit this size is suited perfectly for a tiny house or cabin
1000sqft or less. There are also many variables that must be considered when
determining heating efficiency of any building or home. Insulative factors of
the home, proper sealing of all doors and windows, orientation of the home toward
the south, vaulted ceilings, and total cubic feet of space within the
home minus any furniture, and of course, the amount of Sun that shines on the
home.
Important Note: With the addition of a thermal storage system,
(i.e. a hot water tank or tank filled with veggie oil) one could store heat for
days, and use it during periods of darkness and on cloudy days.
Could you
heat your home with just one unit? Sure. But it also depends on how big your
home is.
Live small.
Go tiny. Drink lots of beer!

Black Friday Myths Busted
For seasoned shoppers, Black
Friday offers an endless array of best-of-year sales. However, not all
the deals are good, and for the uninitiated, Black Friday can be overwhelming.
Plus, with so many conflicting views on the holiday, it can be easy for a shopper
to "do it wrong."
1.
MYTH: Black Friday Sales Begin on Black Friday
There's no
stopping the holiday creep and this year we
expect the majority of Black Friday sales to commence on Thanksgiving Day, if
not earlier. In fact, there's a good chance that you'll see more Editors' Choice deals on Thanksgiving Day than on Black Friday, and some of the best deals might
even sell out before Friday. Moreover, this year there are only 26 days
(three full weekends) between Black Friday and Christmas, so we expect to see
retailers releasing Black Friday sales as early as
two weeks before the namesake day. Other retailers may start teasing their
sales come late October. More at:
