All you really need to do is declare high fructose corn syrup unfit for
human consumption, like most other civilized countries. That will cut
obesity by at least one quarter, within a year. Fat doesn't make you fat,
sugar makes you fat. Easy peasy.

Thanks, that is my recollection but didn't remember the fine points.

Can you say, "Pirates of the Economy"?

And the mainstream media is gullible whenever Barack or Hillary start
moving their lips.

"The first thing Barack has to do is to win over the media." I almost

TiVo lets you play recorded shows without service, as do the DirecTV
TiVo DVR.

The new DirecTV DVR (HR-21) does not.

My computer with BeyondTV and 3 tuner cards has no such limitations.

There's always something new to learn....

When I asked for a cite I was thinking only of properly operating
doorbell equipment.

I located this FCC cite:

http://tinyurl.com/63ob78

(It's on page 14 of the .pdf document.)

It sayss there's a thermostatic overload inside (some?) doorbell
xformers designed to protect them from overheating and starting a fire
if the doorbell button sticks on - or there's a short in the secondary
side wiring.

The report says that those thermal overloads (which I expect break the
120 volt primary circuit.) cycle off and back on around once every seven
seconds and that the inductive spark at its contacts can propogate
through house wiring and cause flashes of interference on a tv or
"static clicks" in radios.

Who woulda thunk it?

I wonder how long that cycling mode would continue before those thermal
overload contacts got burned enough to stop connecting and leave an open
circuit there.

That's the second time I've made a mistake this year...Thank G_d it's
almost December. <G>

I've got 3 different ones floating around - 12, 16, and 24 volts AC.
(They would work just as well on lower voltage DC)

Nice idea, but there are situations where that just won't suffice:
what about people who live up on the third floor of a big house, or
who are deaf and need lights to flash when someone rings?

Dang! Nobody seemed to get the little dig at Jeff.
What you will find are 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 24 volts
AC. Some really old stuff will be DC dry cell powered
but only if the owner wants to keep it original for
nostalgic or antique collecting purposes. Most of the
doorbell transformers I install have triple taps for
8, 16 and 24 volts. Many doorbells will need a 10 volt
transformer and if you need 24 volts to ring your ding
dong you're either deaf or have a seriously complicated
system. I have setup some serious systems for industrial
and commercial buildings by making use of the very loud
and fun to play with devices manufactured by Edwards
Signaling which now belongs to GE. My personal favorite:

@ TruthTeller@nospam.net,

Besides not being able to read you also are unable to hear and/or
listen. During both the Senate (Banking) and House (Financial Services)
committee hearings UAW president Ron Gettelfinger was heavily criticized
for UAW's General Motors/Ford/Chrysler high labor cost which is over
twice the labor of cost of Honda/Toyota/Hyundai. The Big 3's high UAW
labor cost was in fact a key focal point of both the Senate (Banking)
and House (Financial Services) committee hearings. The UAW's contract
unrealistic requirement of UAW Membership "Full Pay" during General
Motors/Ford/Chrysler factory shutdowns was a "Hot Topic" during the
Senate (Banking) and House (Financial Services) committee hearings.

Before attempting to add any meaningful factual information to this
thread educate yourself to the true real facts instead of fabricating
your own 'made up facts'.

Never the less he is what you said is an unskilled worker because, in
most modern day aircraft, the pilot is only there to make sure that
the take-off and landing are performed properly. Everything else is
done by the machine.

I read it goober. It did not state there $103K per year -- unskilled
laborers -- causing the problem. And that point is what the thread is
about.

Hint - UAW -

http://www.heritage.org/Research/Economy/wm2135.cfm


Most of the Big Three's UAW workers' compensation comes as benefits, not
cash. These affluent wages and benefits prevent the Detroit automakers
from successfully competing.


The average private sector worker earned $25.36 an hour in 2006--$17.91
an hour in cash wages and $7.45 an hour in benefits such as pensions,
paid time off, and health insurance. Autoworkers at Japanese plants
located in the United States earn substantially more than this: between
$42 and $48 an hour in wages and benefits, which amounts to over $80,000
a year in total compensation

The typical UAW worker at the Big Three earned between $71 and $76 an
hour in 2006. This amount is triple the earnings of the typical worker
in the private sector and $25 to $30 an hour more than American workers
at Japanese auto plants. The average unionized worker at the Big Three
earns over $130,000 a year in wages and benefits.

Furthermore -

UAW employees also receive the following extraordinary provisions:

* 30-and-Out contracts. UAW employees work under a 30-and-Out
contract that allows them to retire with generous pension benefits
after 30 years on the job, irrespective of age.
* Seven weeks' vacation. A Chrysler worker with 15 years' tenure was
entitled to 34.5 paid holidays and vacation days in 2006--seven
weeks in paid time off. This is three weeks more paid vacation
than the average private sector
worker with similar tenure.
* Paid not to work. Under UAW contracts, workers whom the automakers
let go when plants close are not laid off. Instead, after
exhausting regular unemployment payments from the automakers and
the government, they are transferred to a JOBS bank where they are
paid nearly full wages to not work.

The problem is a Big 3 management failure. Not a worker failure.
Furthermore, you are using the total per hour labor cost that is given
out. That includes current workers and retirees. Using it as a current
worker number -- as you guys are doing, is spinning the facts to suite the
nonsense.

The problem will not be changed by whining.

It's a management failure to the point that they have always bowed to
the UAW in fear of strikes.

When GM controlled the market, the UAW shared in the wealth. Now that
GM's share has tanked, the UAW need to take some serious cuts in
benefits to get into line with the market..

And if you two werent silly enough to piss all that money against the wall in insurance, it couldnt.

And your 'lives' wouldnt change value if you stopped insuring them either.

And engineers, apparently. I routinely see enough confusion of usuage to

Well, duh. Isn't that implicit in the definition - "to produce . . ."?

Indeed it is not. And none of this fuss over the title page alters the
conclusion of the cited document - after careful testing, the evidence
supports the contention that using a vehicle's air conditioning uses more
gasoline than rolling down the windows.
