About Me

My photo
Hello my fellow Politiores Troglodytes. This Blog is a collection of Posts, Poems, & Short Stories that I write on a weekly basis. If you find it entertaining, informative, and controversial, then I have done my job properly. Thank goodness too, because Karma has been on my case of late. I'm supposed to bring fifty people into the fold or I'll have to give back the part of Einstein's brain I inherited. No, I'm not one of the Scientists who got a piece of his brain when he died. Karma said, "Eat this knowledge. It'll make you smarter!" The bargain I made with Karma was, if I could change fifty people into Politiores Populos, I would be rewarded with my very own Lamborghini. So, that's my story and I'm sticking to it! Like what you're reading, then read on. P.S. Populo is Latin for people. Politiores is Latin for educated. Troglodytes is English for troglodytes. And Einstein's brain was stolen by Thomas Stoltz Harvey after his death in 1955 and eventually divvied up into 240 pieces. If you just read that last sentence, then you have just learned something and I'm just that much closer to fulfilling my commitment to Karma!

Writing Those Hard Hitting Political, Humorous, Social, Scientific, And Flash Fiction Stories When I Get Back

Doesn't this guy look like he is on vacation?
Yes,
here I am.
Living it up on the home stretch of my vacation.
I believe the hat makes me look more intelligent.
If you didn't know any better,
just looking at this picture,
do you think I might be in one of those
Banana Republics
sitting around my
Plantation,
waiting for the coffee beans to ripe?
They say a
Picture Is Worth A Thousands Words.
With the right amount of imagination,
the story behind a picture could mean a hundred different types of things.
Taking the viewer,
on whatever adventure he or she can think of.
That is one of the reasons to save all those old photos of your relatives long forgotten.
You never know.
By researching your family tree you might find out that you are related to someone who is famous
or owns a business that you would really like to get involved in.
Who wouldn't want to be associated with a brewery?

This is,
Still On Vacation For Another Week But Will Be Writing Those Hard Hitting Political,
Humorous,
Social,
Scientific,
And
Flash Fiction Stories When I Get Back,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

"One day I will find the right words, and they will be simple."

That is my story and I am sticking to it!

Some Of Their Work Was Done Over 6,000 Years Ago

There have been many theories,
over the years,
on whether early
Mankind
was intelligent enough to build any of the
Seven Wonders of the World,
Stonehenge,
Pyramids,
the
Heads
on
Easter Island,
and all the other global wonders,
too numerous to mention.
If you watch the
you have at least heard about their program called
Which gives all the credit to
Beings
from other planets.
Which,
in one of their theories
Seeded Mankind
with
DNA
which would increase our intelligence as a species,
while they sit by,
somewhere in outer-space
and watch over us.
Sure,
we look back
and think early
Mankind
were a bunch of barbarians compared to us today.
But I'm not so sure.
Science has proven,
with the help of knowing how to use leverage
and a wobble type of motion,
the
Natives of Easter Island
could move those
Heads
around,
using a minimum amount of their work force.
A gentleman in
Homestead, Florida
built the
out of granite stones.
Some weighing in as much as several tons.
He said he knew the secret on how the
Pyramids
were made,
but said he would not reveal this secret unless the girl who jilted him at the alter years earlier came back to him.
She never did
and we still don't know how he did it.
Even the program
Ancient Aliens
admits that ancient
Egyptians
could have flown a type of glider,
but they believe the technology surely had to be given to them by
Aliens.
How could
Ed Leedskalnin,
the 100 pound 5 foot tall man,
who built the
Coral Castle
move rocks that weighed several tons?
He had to be given the knowledge by
Extraterrestrials.
How could he have figured it out himself?
See the source imageHe lived in the
United States
during the early 1900's so how could he have the ability to do such great feats of engineering?
Then their is the case of the
Antikythera Mechanism
which is dated from around the year 205 BC.
This was the first basic computer,
accurately telling sailors on the
Mediterranean Sea,
which day,
month,
and year it was from the
Sothic Egyptian Calendar.
Gears,
were so accurately made that this computer could also predict the upcoming
Solar
and
Lunar Eclipses
These are just a few of the wonders of
Ancient Mankind.
Now scientist believe that;
By Ryan O'Hare for MailOnline
"Stone Age Europeans may have peered at the stars through a giant stone telescopes, according to new research."
I don't believe we give early
Mankind
enough credit for what they have done
or how advanced they were.
We haven't found enough of their technology to make a clear assessment of their capabilities.
We think they couldn't have been as advanced as us,
but some of their work was done over 6,000 years ago.
Maybe we destroyed all the evidence we need by having two
World Wars
and countless small ones.

This is,
Believing Mankind Made All Our Own Strides In Technology Without The Aid From Aliens,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

“Why the ancient civilizations who built the place did not use the easier, nearby rocks remains a mystery. But the skills and knowledge on display at Stonehenge are not. The major phases of construction took a total of a few hundred years. Perhaps the preplanning took another hundred or so. You can build anything in half a millennium - I don't care how far you choose to drag your bricks. Furthermore, the astronomy embodied in Stonehenge is not fundamentally deeper than what can be discovered with a stick in the ground."
- Neil deGrasse Tyson -

That is my story and I am sticking to it!

Two-Thousand-Mile-Long Fish In Orbit Around Jupiter

This false-color image was created by selecting and combining the best images obtained from many short VISIR exposures at a wavelength of 5 micrometers. Credit: ESO/L. Fletcher

What,
do you think this was our Sun?
It's the highest-resolution map to date of
Jupiter.
Taken by the
NASA"s
Spacecraft.
It will be arriving,
to orbit
Jupiter,
on
July 4th.
"The false-color thermal infrared image shows temperature, weather, and cloud patterns in Jupiter's atmosphere, which takes up most of the planet."
Yes I agree,
you have to be a scientist to be able to understand what you are
looking at.
It is exciting though.
Check
website after you recover from you outdoor grilling,
and beer drinking swilling,
from the long up-n-coming weekend.
Where the only celestial bodies you will be thinking about are the women running around in their summer clothes.
I might be older,
but I'm not dead.
It is OK to look,
as long as you don't touch.

This is,
Still Feeling The Effects From The Beer I Drank Yesterday,
Before And After The Baseball Game,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

"A giant, two-thousand-mile-long fish in orbit around Jupiter, according to a reliable report in the Weekly World News. The photograph was very convincing, and I'm only surprised that more-reputable journals like New Scientist, or even just The Sun, haven't followed up with more details. We should be told.”

Take Me Out To The Ballgame!

It's as old as
Apple Pie.
It was once the most popular sport in the
United States.
It's
Popcorn,
Peanuts,
and
Cracker Jack.
It is
Americana.
The Major League
is held after the
July 4th Holiday.
This year it will be in beautiful
I know it is beautiful because I live close by
and have been there many times.
I am going to a
tonight.
The home team,
will be hosting
The Brewers may no longer be the
Bambi Bombers
of old,
who under manager
George Bamberger,
had such great players that included
Robin Yount,
Paul Molitor,
Cecil Cooper,
Gorman Thomas
and
Ben Oglivie.
That team took the
Brewers
to the
World Series
in 1982.
They took the
to a seventh game in that series before finally losing in the closing innings.
I don't know if I am going to buy
Popcorn,
Peanuts,
or
Cracker Jack.
I do know that I'll buy at least one beer.
What the Hell.
Milwaukee
is famous for it's
Breweries,
and I am famous for drinking their wares.
No I am not drinking
and driving,
Mom!
Here to sing
"Take Me Out To The Ballgame"
is none other than
William Hung.
Who was so bad on
in
Season Three,
that the crowd cheered him on
and he became a cult hero of sorts.
We all know him
and love him,
William Hung!

This is,
I Do Not Really Drink Any Longer,
So Let Us See If I Have More Than One Beer,
Jim Hauenstein,

Trying To Learn New Things All The Time

I wrote a Post once,
where I explained,
why I write this Blog.
The Post is called
If you want to understand why I am putting out these
Headlines
and accompanying
Paragraphs,
read that Post
and you will understand.

"Southwest Research Institute's, Dr. Alex Parker, discovers moon over Makemake in the Kuiper Belt"
on EurekAlert.org
San Antonio -- June 27, 2016 -- A Southwest Research Institute-led team has discovered an elusive, dark moon orbiting Makemake, one of the "big four" dwarf planets populating the Kuiper Belt region at the edge of our solar system.

"NASA's IMERG measures deadly West Virginia flooding rainfall"
on EurekAlert.org
At NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland, NASA's Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) data were used to create an analysis to estimate rainfall that fell over West Virginia during the period from June 20 through 26, 2016. The IMERG analysis showed that extreme rainfall occasionally occurred during this period in an area extending from Illinois through North Carolina.

"Ancient 'Deep Skull' from Borneo full of surprises"
on EurekAlert.org
Sydney - A new study of the 37,000-year old remains of the "Deep Skull" - the oldest modern human discovered in island South-East Asia - has revealed this ancient person was not related to Indigenous Australians, as had been originally thought.
"Mobile, phone-based microscopes work well in the field with minimal training"
TORONTO, June 27, 2016 - Handheld, mobile phone-based microscopes can be used in developing countries after minimal training of community laboratory technicians to diagnose intestinal parasites quickly and accurately.

"Computer model demonstrates how human spleen filters blood"
on EurekAlert.org
Researchers, led by Carnegie Mellon University President Subra Suresh and MIT Principal Research Scientist Ming Dao, have created a new computer model that shows how tiny slits in the spleen prevent old, diseased or misshapen red blood cells from re-entering the bloodstream. Members of this multidisciplinary team include specialists in mathematics, supercomputing, clinical medicine, engineering and computational biology.


I am positive,
that you can see,
that I have found a new website to go to for my my daily dose of
Scientific News.

This is,
Trying To Learn New Things All The Time,
Jim Hauenstein,

And,

"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more things you learn, the more places you will go."

Those are EurekAlert.org stories and I am trying to read them all!


That is my story and I am sticking to it!
