Neglect of infrastructure didn't help New England utility survival

For ten years this country flushed money down the Military Industrial Complex toilets labeled Iraq and Afghanistan on the map.

In fact, Karzai the crook recently said if the US went to war with Pakistan that Afghanistan will fight the USA.

"God forbid, if ever there is a war between Pakistan and America, Afghanistan will side with Pakistan," Reuters quotes Karzai.

Karzai also said that if Pakistan were attacked by another country and needed help, "Afghanistan will be there with you. Afghanistan is a brother."

"Afghanistan will never forget the welcome, the hospitality, the respect, and the brotherhood showed by the Pakistani people towards the Afghan people," Karzai said. "Pakistan will never betray their brother."

He said that would be the case regardless of whether the country was India, China or the United States.

"Afghanistan is not going to be dictated in any way by any country - U.S. or India or Russia or China or whoever. Afghanistan has its own policy, its' own stand, its own clear view of things, and from that point of view, from that stand, it's dealing with our brothers in Pakistan."

The results of neglect by the intermarried, collegial, false two party system politicians in control of the USA against their own people are seen in Connecticut, an affluent state:

Forty-four transmission lines, primarily in the northwestern and north central parts of the state, were knocked out due to the storm, Blint said. Six have been repaired.

That's serious damage caused by neglect and a storm. They'll try to blame the storm but it was just the catalyst. It's going to be longer than a week to restoration, since after 24 hours entire towns of 30,000 are black, as in 100 percent dark.

That's the truth.

Then there's the lie of omission, of power and cable companies shutting down areas by hand and automatically through fuses, etc. The power companies and the political hacks aren't very excited to share this with you so they don't.

This time, it's understandable because they can't have live wires lying around in snow banks.

Admit it.

The citizens aren't your unruly children.

Secret squirrels Verizon and AT & T forgot that they work for the citizens and didn't add adequate generator power for ten years of "preparation" and taking of government contracts that included systems to knock civil users off the air in favor of federal users if "needed" (read more about your status as a second class citizen and customer at the NCS site).

Mobile phone coverage was spotty for some wireless phone users Monday after about 200 cell phone towers around the state were affected by power outages, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy said Monday morning.

AT&T would not say how many cell phone towers it has in the state or how many were affected.

"We are not commenting on the governor's statement," Kate McKinnon, AT&T spokeswoman for the Northeast Region said Monday afternoon.

Cell towers must be supplied with electricity to function.

And here's another omission. Time is ticking on the battery banks on others... and landlines as well.

"We have a number of cell sites down throughout the region due to loss of commercial power," Mark Siegel, an AT&T spokesman based in Atlanta, wrote in an email.

...Verizon would not say how many cell towers it operates.

"For competitive reasons, the number of towers in the state isn't something Verizon Wireless discloses," Murphy wrote in an email.

They work for the shareholders in economic theory ? If they work for the shareholders, let's all cancel at once and let the shareholders carry them forward.

They're still having that EAS drill on 9 November. If a tree falls in a forest, and the power is out, will anyone hear it ?

O puer, qui omnia nomini debes

This blog is written in the unvarnished truth by an Ottaviano. That's Octavianus, Octavian, Octavius, Octavia, Octavii... some intel nit wit keeps editing the commonly used Wikipedia as Google and Youtube delinks Ottaviano and Octavianus, etc, out of their abject fear of real history. Now they've shoved Cardinal Ottaviani who worked with the OSS and Martin S. Quigley to the back of the searches too. Their goal is to throw off any casual looker seeking to confirm this. It's not the politically correct nonsense of a Globalist publishing house with a post-WWII agenda of anti-Roman, anti-Italian, and anti-Goyim lies.

I graduated Phi Beta Kappa with Honors in History from Trinity College and needed only a second thesis or exam to get the B.A. in Political Science or International Relations. I was oddly told that they were "redundant" even though many now get both. I then refused to become a sock puppet like others are, and was maimed on purpose to a near heart transplant, nerve damage, and internal bleeding by a bunch of Globalist government paranoids acting through Merck. Their Germanic and Jewish ancestors rioted against my family in Rome with this purpose, assassinated lawful Emperors and defiled the Mausoleum of Augustus in Rome. Stop believing what you were conditioned to think out of post WWII guilt. Nero didn't burn Rome; the fiddle they now say he played wasn't invented until the 16th century, and Nero was assassinated by their ancestors ending our rule. An unlawful coup took hold in 476 and continues unchallenged.

After all of that, on 31 May 2008, my 62 year old father dropped dead in front of me as two fighters hundreds of miles from their base flew over. Connecticut politicians Richard Blumenthal, Joe Courtney and my father's student Susan Bysiewicz held up both the ambulance and AED which should have been 1000 feet away for their own paranoid protection. That left my mother with $62 a month and no pension. You bet it was retaliation by the people who maimed me that I now attack, but hadn't uttered a word about until after that.

I'm also a ham radio operator, but most of the new hams are incompetent un-opinionated fake emergency responder mush mouths since they dropped the IQ test.

Benjamin Disraeli

"There is in Italy a power which we seldom mention in this House ... I mean the secret societies.... It is useless to deny, because it is impossible to conceal, that a great part of Europe--the whole of Italy and France and a great portion of Germany, to say nothing of other countries--is covered with a network of these secret societies, just as the superficies of the earth is now being covered with railroads. And what are their objects? They do not attempt to conceal them. They do not want constitutional government; they do not want ameliorated institutions ... they want to change the tenure of land, to drive out the present owners of the soil and to put an end to ecclesiastical establishments. Some of them may go further...."

in the House of Commons, July 14, 1856

Nicolo Machiavelli

"Upon this a question arises: whether it be better to be loved than feared or feared than loved? It may be answered that one should wish to be both, but, because it is difficult to unite them in one person, is much safer to be feared than loved, when, of the two, either must be dispensed with. Because this is to be asserted in general of men, that they are ungrateful, fickle, false, cowardly, covetous, and as long as you succeed they are yours entirely; they will offer you their blood, property, life and children, as is said above, when the need is far distant; but when it approaches they turn against you."

John Locke

"but where no such appeal is, as in the state of nature, for want of positive laws, and judges with authority to appeal to, the state of war once begun, continues, with a right to the innocent party to destroy the other whenever he can, until the aggressor offers peace, and desires reconciliation on such terms as may repair any wrongs he has already done, and secure the innocent for the future; nay, where an appeal to the law, and constituted judges, lies open, but the remedy is denied by a manifest perverting of justice, and a barefaced wresting of the laws to protect or indemnify the violence or injuries of some men, or party of men, there it is hard to imagine any thing but a state of war: for wherever violence is used, and injury done, though by hands appointed to administer justice, it is still violence and injury, however coloured with the name, pretences, or forms of law, the end whereof being to protect and redress the innocent, by an unbiassed application of it, to all who are under it; wherever that is not bona fide done, war is made upon the sufferers, who having no appeal on earth to right them, they are left to the only remedy in such cases, an appeal to heaven."

The "innovative" electric car

MR. MAXIM," asked New Haven Carriage-Maker William Hooker Atwood in 1896, "do you want this carriage to look like a Western buggy-maker's job or do you want it to be a gentleman's carriage?" Answered Hiram Percy Maxim, builder of the Mark I Electric Phaeton: "Like a gentleman's carriage, Mr. Atwood." For almost half a century, the U.S. automobile was indeed a "gentleman's carriage," built for men and bought on the basis of its mechanical excellence, not its sculptured lines or pleasing colors.
