  1. No it's not. Energy and material come in from outside oh yeah and some leaves too... Does not seem closed to me. Ok yes you do get some water in and some H does go out. But in the long and short you are not picking huge quantities of carbon or pushing it out. What you got is what you go.

  2. I'm sorry what? snow in Africa? The chemisty is easy, you burn X lbs of this you get Y lbs of that. You do realize the earth is a closed system right?

  3. kelpdiver I've been told a way out of this is to just not pay and save the money for downpayment on another home. By the time the first home is forclosed on the second home is now picked up and thus the tax issue is solved. Still find it dirty but....it's a dirty world? But I guess the more liquidity you have the more options you have. Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

  4. if this were basic chemistry, we'd be dead by now, living on Venus II. Reality is somewhat more complicated.

  5. Not the chemistry itself How it is presented has issues however hu? CH4 + 2 O2 → CO2 + 2 H2O 2 CH4 + 3 O2 → 2 CO + 4 H2O N2 + O2 → 2 NO N2 + 2 O2 → 2 NO2 this is what now?

  6. Since there is no equity I'd say renting for 1/3 or 1/4... With a 6% loan, .5% PMI (or 80/20 loan with a similar effective interest rate), and 1.5% state taxes Shah could be paying 8.7% of his property's value to "own it" and with a 30 year amortization would have paid principle totaling 10% after 7 years. At half the cash to rent he could put 4.35% of the property value in safe instruments like CDs and end up with 28% of the value after 7 years or 170% more equity.

  8. curry? We be Perian not Indian bro! But for the record all of you guys are warned. As my mother told me when I was 10 I'm telling all of you! Persian women are dangerous! Ever see a lion take out a gazelle? Well that's how Persian women take out men they want. And the next thing you know you are married, her mom is living in your office and her brother is in the basement, and you have gained about 10lbs and are working three jobs and look 70 when she will never look older than 30. I've never seen an old Persian woman....i've seen lots of young guys who look well past their years trying to keep their Persian wives happy thought! Now this is truly an exaggeration and I'm sure there are some very nice very awesome Persian women out there....but still....i care about some of you and watch out!

  9. Yes I have, they contacted me regarding a refinance under HARP. After I paid $500 for the appraisal and a few $$ to the bank they changed their mind. Per my last conversation with them i was told that "they were no longer issuing new loans thus they were no longer in the refinance business, however i was free to look for a new bank." To say that I find that rude is an understatement. I wonder if you get the same level of disrespect if your home is worth say $1mill and you owe $1.5mill?

  11. I have an 800 credit score +/- 10 points. On the books my place is worth $200k so have to look at those taxes and see hwo they work out. Especially since I have an 80/20 thing going. Rent for me for a very high end location is equal to what I pay. For an ok location it's $1k less than what I pay! For me it doesn't feel right. I would rather come to an agreement and keep my end of the deal. But that's just me, maybe I'm oen of those dumb honest folks.

  13. That one girl is stunning! And I have this rule about not dating Persian girls...but for her I may look the other way! http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQ27dfj54xq5hFWcML5G6R24k0LkWAcW4ddYOHbrvFRyiHK-4bnR83tNVt9 Life through good thoughts, good words, and good deeds is necessary to ensure happiness and to keep chaos at bay.

  14. Everyone keeps telling me I should do this. I can afford my place, I just hate throwing money into a very bad investment. But unlike these folks....I have this thing called a sense of responsibility. That said, if they are doing it.....why shouldn't the rest of us? Yeah I know credit score and all that jazz.

  16. Depends on the cat! But seriously teach the science. If you don't like the science then well there is a way in which one can go about obtaining the appropriate education and publication of a theory for peer review and validation. If your version of science supersedes what came before, congrats. If not? Tough titties! Your average person who is a graduate of the Glen Beck Educational system and who has the IQ of a twice boiled carrot....will never understand science and thus will point out outliers and build their beliefs on them. As an old professor once said "Jesus said he walked on water, the rest of us would drown. Don't be an idiot and think you can walk on water just because one person said they did."

  17. Go argue with Venus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus Do not argue with science. You will always and forever loose. Think of it as god....that you can count on 100% of the time. With the exception of quantum science where you can count on it only 50% of the time and the other 50% it's arguing with itself.

  18. Every gaseous molecule that has dissimilar atoms is a green house gas... Never argue with science. It is relentless and emotionless. It doesn't care who you are or what you are or how much you make or how close you feel to you imaginary friend..science is always be right. And if it's not it does one better...it spits out new better more refined science. Kids these gasses are green house gasses and here is how they work.... No matter what your parents imaginary friend says these gasses will always and forever be green house gases and they will continue to act this way long after your parents are dead and decomposing and themselves pumping out greenhouse gasses. The long and short of it, you, your parents, and your imaginary friend will all be gone but the science...it will continue on and on and on.

  19. The science. We know that these chemicals are green house gasses and here is why, please note their chemical structure and their ability to reflect energy. This is what happens when you burn hydro carbons. Now you do the math. Never ever argue with science. It always wins. For unlike imaginary friends it can be trusted to not only be accountable and repeatable.

  21. Well I am a hot sexy piece of man candy! I'm sorry I'm at work and can't view the link, what is it about? I remember hearing they were going to do an NJ shore about Persiand in Cali I wonder if it's that? If so, it's going to be a train wreck of epic nature. Many of these Persians were very well to do when the Shah fell. Rumor has it that in 1976 they took the equivalent $2 billion out of Iran. When they got to the US they then invested in what is now silicon valley and in Hollywood. So it will be nothing more than very well to do trust fund babies with more money than brains. Nothing I would watch but there appears to be a hell of an appetite for this kind of thing on TV. Think...Persian Guido...which means well....as one friend once put it..."Persians...making out of control Guido's look stable." An epic train wreck best viewed on mute. But on the + side many of you will learn a lot about Persian culinary tradition and the next time I make Kebab for all my friends at the DZ...it may become a boogie? The Kebab Boogie? http://www.thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2012/02/19/exclusive-first-look-shahs-of-sunset-new-bravo-reality-show.html Well it could be worse at least some of the girls are cute. That said this Secrest guy nees to be taken out and have his ass kicked a little for such craptacular TV!

  22. The lesson of the story is; Don't hire Goldman Sacks to hid your debt before you enter a union. Then hire them again to hide your other pile of debt after you host the Olympics. Use MF Global!
