11 Feb 2021, Maintain our Sanity

I’m finding it difficult to keep the uncivil discourse out of our home. The news is at a scale of sensationalism and it’s awfully hard to read without getting emotionally involved.


This is about all I have left of my parents.

Are Executive Orders the will of the people?

In a potential sign of the hurdles to come, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) sent a warning shot during one of his first floor speeches back in the minority. Republicans, he warned, were willing to work with Biden but also wouldn’t be shy about blocking bills they don’t support. Because of the 60-vote legislative filibuster, Democrats will need at least 10 GOP senators to pass most things.


Project Engineering: Layout new ductwork. With a variable speed compressor the temperature drop in the ducts has a much greater affect on the performance. The reason is that the forced air temp can be just a few degrees above the room temperatures. (Meaning that a few degree change becomes a large percentage of the heat/cool capacity into the room.) I’ve doubled the insulation on the 6″ ducts since they had the greatest surface area per volume of air. I’ve also doubled the long trunk line to the Master Bedroom since it’s length and the two 6″ ducts were affecting the air significantly. I encased the 8″ duct to the kitchen inside a 12″ duct. (Pretty easy actually.) and ran it to the vent over the microwave. I also encased 25 Feet of 8″ duct inside a 12″ duct for my cave yesterday. Reminds me of a really old Star Trek…

This is looking West inside my attic, I built a floor above the insulation.

Heat pump and ducts are working pretty well, I have the guest bathroom to fix. I measured the temperatures of the rooms and how they responded to the heat sent into them.

10 Feb 2021, Social Media is Awful

It used to be that we would share our opinions on social media as individuals and we were open to listening to the opinions of others. Now everyone is shouting into a bullhorn as though their opinion is the only truth in a world of 8 Billion people.

Logged into EF Facebook page got angry about them yelling at me with ignorant complaints so I decided to shut down my Facebook account again. I was spending too much time arguing about things they had not spent the time to understand. We had a pretty hard afternoon with the Trump Impeachment this week, there’s a lot of material (Video) that hint we need to walk a little more carefully when we follow our political leaders.

8 Feb 2021, Riots continue

I was really hoping that the riots would take a pause as their administration they elected gets their boots on. Apparently that is not the case. Here you can see typical acts against police, they don’t “Break” the law, but they don’t abide by it either. They are trained how to abuse 1st Amendment rights to intimidate.

Heather Higgins, chairwoman of the Independent Women’s Forum, suggested that the left’s current narrative of “unity” is coming across to the other side as being asked to “accept guilt” and “shut up.”

“There’s a lot of ‘we need to unify,’” Higgins told Jan Jekielek, host of The Epoch Times’ American Thought Leaders program on Jan. 20. “That’s the language now.”

But she said the unity they’re talking about is “‘you need to accept guilt for anything that we say that you need to accept guilt for,’ even if you’re not guilty; ‘you need to shut up, and you just need to go along with and comply with our point of view,’” Higgins pointed out. “Which is extremely unhealthy.” Heather Higgins: Silencing People and Forcing Them to ‘Accept Guilt’ Not the Way to Unity (theepochtimes.com)

6 Feb 2021, Vote-a-rama?

The budget resolution, filed Tuesday, is the first step in a budget reconciliation process that would allow Congress to quickly approve President Joe Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus package, CBS News reported. Lawmakers have skipped passing budget resolutions in recent years to avoid forcing members of their parties to make tough votes on controversial issues in what is known as a budget “vote-a-rama,” according to The Hill.

5 Feb 2021, Marjorie Taylor Greene

News organizations “can take teeny, tiny pieces of words that I’ve said, that you have said, any of us, and can portray us as someone that we’re not,” she said. She added that “we’re in a real big problem” if the House punished her but tolerated “members that condone riots that have hurt American people.” Greene was on the Education and Labor Committee and the Budget Committee. There was no apparent precedent for the full House removing a lawmaker from a committee, a step usually taken by party leaders.

4 Feb 2021, COVID response

The House of Representatives on Wednesday passed a budget resolution that lets Congress pass President Joe Biden’s CCP virus relief package without Republican backing. The 218-212 vote was entirely along party lines, except for two Democrats, Reps. Ed Case (D-Hawaii) and Jared Golden (D-Maine), who sided with Republicans against the resolution. Rep. Ron Wright (R-Texas) missed the vote. House Passes Budget Resolution to Set Up Partisan Vote on CCP Virus Package (theepochtimes.com)

Project Engineering: Layout new ductwork. With a variable speed compressor the temperature drop in the ducts has a much greater affect on the performance. The reason is that the forced air temp can be just a few degrees above the room temperatures. (Meaning that a few degree change becomes a large percentage of the heat/cool capacity into the room.) I’ve doubled the insulation on the 6″ ducts since they had the greatest surface area per volume of air. I’ve also doubled the long trunk line to the Master Bedroom since it’s length and the two 6″ ducts were affecting the air significantly. I encased the 8″ duct to the kitchen inside a 12″ duct. (Pretty easy actually.) and ran it to the vent over the microwave. I also encased 25 Feet of 8″ duct inside a 12″ duct for my cave yesterday. Reminds me of a really old Star Trek…

This is looking West inside my attic, I built a floor above the insulation.

Heat pump and ducts are working pretty well, I have the guest bathroom to fix. I measured the temperatures of the rooms and how they responded to the heat sent into them.


Fix the wireless!

The wireless remembers every network it has ever touched and there’s no way of turning it off!


The COVID numbers getting reasonable.

Narrative: I’m skipping the time bullets today. I’m up, where’s my coffee? I have to play catch-up with my blog. I didn’t enter anything for yesterday. This morning I got caught up on the news, checked my air conditioning performance and helped the wife order groceries. This afternoon we put the groceries away and went for a walk. I tested a DC-DC converter on my 28V solar controller to charge the R600 (Max 24V) it worked ok, but I didn’t have a lot of sun today. I did get my new Onyx 16 today!


Feelings: As Christians we are compelled to look after the Widows and the poor. Just how we do that in this climate when there is so much energy fighting the democracy I don’t know.

I am very angry with CF, we’ve had this long running drama about letters and I am slap wore out trying to get them to do their part. I am going the rounds with CF and I am pretty angry at them. I told them to be honest, if I am 100th in line or what I want isn’t going to happen for months. Tell me!

3 Feb 2021, Arizona Sues USG

The Biden administration has failed “to provide any concrete, reasonable justification for a 100-day pause on deportations,” Tipton said in his order.

“It’s really a straightforward lawsuit,” Brnovich told KTAR News 92.3 FM. “We basically sued the Department of Homeland Security alleging that their new policy halting deportations is illegal and it’s also contrary to an MOU [memorandum of understanding] that we have with Homeland Security.” Arizona AG Sues Over Biden Administration’s 100-Day Deportation Freeze (theepochtimes.com)


This is about all I have left of my parents.

Are Executive Orders the will of the people?

In a potential sign of the hurdles to come, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) sent a warning shot during one of his first floor speeches back in the minority. Republicans, he warned, were willing to work with Biden but also wouldn’t be shy about blocking bills they don’t support. Because of the 60-vote legislative filibuster, Democrats will need at least 10 GOP senators to pass most things.

Heather Higgins, chairwoman of the Independent Women’s Forum, suggested that the left’s current narrative of “unity” is coming across to the other side as being asked to “accept guilt” and “shut up.”

2 Feb 2021, Stimulus Package?

The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 is a proposed $2.3 trillion spending bill that combines $900 billion in stimulus relief for the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States with a $1.4 trillion omnibus spending bill for the 2021 federal fiscal year and prevents a government shutdown. If signed into law, the bill would be one the largest spending measures ever passed by Congress, provide slightly more than the $2.2 trillion CARES Act that was passed in March 2020, and the first bill to address the pandemic since April 2020. According to the Associated Press, at 5,593 pages, the legislation is easily the largest bill ever passed by Congress in terms of size of text. The bill was passed by both houses of Congress on December 21, 2020. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consolidated_Appropriations_Act,_2021
