Forget the Gas Pumps--Make Your Own Fuel
Forget the rising gasoline prices. Now you can fuel you car, truck, motorcycle or RV without gasoline. Don't let the rising gasoline prices choke your budget and cause sleepless nights. Jim Wortham began his study of alternative energy in 1979 when he compiled research and car conversion information for this book. Jim was part of a grassroots movement to convert cars, trucks, motorcycles, lawnmowers and farm machinery to run on legally made home distilled alcohol. Jim insists that you can completely eliminate the use of petroleum oil by using synthetic motor oil instead of conventional oil. One of the synthetic oils, "Mobil 1," was selected and used as the original motor oil for Chevrolet Corvette, Mercedes Benz AMG, Porche, Dodge Viper, Dodge Ram SRT 10, and Cadillac CTS, XLR, SRX, STS. "Mobil 1" is the official motor oil of NASCAR. Jim explains how most anyone can get a permit to make alcohol fuel, how to make a moonshine still, how to distill alcohol, and provides photos and instructions of car engine modifications. A frequent question from readers is "What is the cost per gallon when using alcohol as fuel"? Farmers using crops for distillation have reported the cost to be about $1.50 or less per gallon. Purchasing sugar may be an easier and less expensive way to make alcohol instread of using crops. Most cities have chemical companies that will sell alcohol in 55-gallon containers. Prices per gallon may greatly vary from company to company. The buring of alcohol as automotive fuel does not polute the air, saving people from potential health problems. Jim worked in partnership with Keat B. Drane, who wrote a book titled "Convert Your Car To Alcohol." Keat completed all the conversion of a Dodge Dart for less than $37. To update the readers with additional information, Jim has included a coupon in back of his book for a Free "Alternative Fuel Update Report." This report will catch the reader up with current trends and information on modifying newer engines..

Wired for Survival: The Rational (and Irrational) Choices We Make, from the Gas Pump to Terrorism
Lessons from the Cutting-Edge of Neuroscience: "Remapping" to Thrive in the New Global Economy! "Do you ever wonder how you think? If you do, this book will fascinate and inform you. If you don't, you will after reading this book. Either way, you'll enjoy learning how we don't usually do it as we think we do, how we may do it better for that very reason, and how we may do it still better once we understand " --Thomas C. Schelling, 2005 Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics, Distinguished University Professor, Emeritus, University of Maryland Drawing on cutting-edge research in the neurosciences, Wired for Survival illuminates the surprising security implications of rapid change in the emerging economies and develops practical, technically sound ways to face the challenges of global change. Researcher and consultant Margaret M. Polski begins by uncovering the remarkable neurobiological underpinnings of policy. Polski reveals why the most effective political and economic policies are codified not in law, treaty, or culture, but in the networks embedded in our bodies and brains...and how protecting our prosperity requires us to adapt those networks to radically new realities. Next, Polski applies these fresh insights to three critical security issues: how best to defend our national interests; to take offensive action to protect our interests; and to strengthen our financial system. Finally, she provides "rules for the road" that can be applied to a world of problems: how best to compete in global markets; to build stronger, more secure communities; to manage energy and other key resources; to invest in and secure critical infrastructure; to address the structural impacts of trade; and to manage tomorrow's catastrophes, both natural and man-made. As a political economist, executive, government advisor, and consultant, Polski has spent more than two decades devising strategies for surviving change in the global political economy. Now, drawing on the breakthrough research in social neuroscience, she offers insights that will help you thrive, not just survive! "First, kill all the pundits and policy wonks..."Why you'll make better decisions by thinking for yourself--and how to do it Thinking in the wild Uncovering the intuitive interactions between our minds, bodies, and 21st century environment Overcoming our biases, our histories, and our vulnerability to groupthink Mastering the deep motivations that traditional economics doesn't understand.
