Re: [meteorite-list] SPACE ROCKS MAGAZINE
Marcin, I get what you're saying. The shipping is expensive. I agree. But: It's a quarterly magazine. Comes out every 3 months. Spending 33.80$ once every 3 months averages to about 11.27$ each month. Okay so not EXACTLY 10$ I spent 14$ last night to go to a movie for just two hours of entertainment. It may not be worth it to someone who never read the Deadpool comics but it was worth it to me. :-) It costs me 3.50$ a day to have the latte I like to drink most mornings. If I do that six times a week that's 21$ a week, and 84$ a month. It may not be worth it to someone who doesn't like coffee, but it's worth it to me. My point is, 33.80$ is really not alot of money to pay once every three months for a high quality magazine if you really do enjoy the content. Hope you are doing good my friend.

[meteorite-list] Barack Hussein Obama Places Over 265 Million Acres Of Land Off-limits
Dear List Member, Barrack Hussein Obama has added another 1.8 million acres of land to the his running total of 265 million acres that are now completely off limits to mineral hunting of any sort which includes meteorites. Highlights: "With his second term winding down, Barrack Hussein Obama has now protected more than 265 million acres of land and water, more than any other administration. A year ago, Obama designated much of the Angeles National Forest as the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument." "Concern over the long-term health of the deceptively delicate terrain spurred Obama to designate the Mojave Trails, Sand to Snow and Castle Mountains monuments under the 1906 Antiquities Act, which authorizes presidents to create national monuments on federal land to protect "objects of historic and scientific interest."

Re: [meteorite-list] Barack Hussein Obama Places Over 265 Million Acres Of Land Off-limits
How much land did big private corporate developers remove from public use last year? Half of my area has turned from farmland to a concrete jungle (rampant building in the last few years) and the federal government had nothing to do with it. I wish the Fed would step in and put the land near me off-limits so I won't have to put up with ever increasing crime, traffic, and loss of wildlife habitat. Build somewhere else - the locals here hate the new development. There are always two sides to every coin.

No bigotry on my part. Political correctness doesn't work with me. Just disgusted in the land grabs. He deserves complete credit for protecting this land.

Re: [meteorite-list] SPACE ROCKS MAGAZINE
Hi all, The problem as I see it is that Blurb are not just a distributor but the printer too so it's not just a question of switching companies. Blurb use different printing and distribution bases according to the buyers location so not all copies are sent from the US. Copies Sent to the UK seem to have been sent from the Czech Republic so not sure why the shipping is so high for you Sergey? The shipping is certainly high but that is out of Michael's control. All I can say is that the magazine itself is more than worth the cost given the quality of the product but it is a shame the shipping cost is putting some people off. I am more than happy to get multiple copies ordered and then bring to Ensisheim for anyone who wants to wait rather than pay shipping. Just let me know :-) Just want to give a shout out to Michael Johnson who has put his heart and soul and many many hours into this project and the end result is truly excellent. I for one will do everything I can to help and support him so that this grows and becomes a great resource to the entire meteorite community. I am sure that Michael would welcome any help from others too, be that submitting articles and photos, offers of helping to distribute copies of the magazine or just general support and encouragement. The magazine is for us all and we need to support it any way we can.

[meteorite-list] Update on yesterday morning's bolide
Correction to my post yesterday: now that there are two dashcam videos of the event (one from Hollywood, the other from Oceanside), it is clear that the Pacific Ocean bolide yesterday morning was much further south. The terminal lines of sight intersect at 30d 42.5' N, 118d 24.5' W, over 120 miles west of Baja and almost 150 miles south of San Clemente Island. I have a kmz file with the two camera locations and my estimates of the terminal vectors for each if anyone is curious. --Rob -Original Message- From: Matson, Rob D.

Our freedoms have been horribly eroded in the last few years, especially in the last 7 years. People just let it happen and don't complain unless it directly, and seriously affects them.

Re: [meteorite-list] President Obama Places Over 265 Million Acres Of Land Off-limits
Yup, I have written to the Feinstein camp many times over the years in opposition of Sand to Snow, Mojave Trail, and Castle Mountains as National Monuments. The real issues had nothing to do with "preservation", but that's how it was spun to the general public. Of course, who's going to argue with that? If George Carlin taught me anything it was to never trust anything your government tells you, ever. All you will find about these new monuments is positive press, the truths spoken at every single public hearing have been buried and forgotten. If you have "blm" in your search, such as a Google search for "ca new blm land news" you won't find a single link related to this. It's a bunch of horseshit. This is my backyard, well it was anyway. The 4x4 groups that get slandered in the press did more in the name of conservation and preservation than the BLM ever did and ever will. -Michael in so. Cal.

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite-list Digest, Vol 156, Issue 16
I am sure that nearly everyone in America and the World, unless they're a really far rightwing Obama hating conservative, reads the FULL Name, "Barrack Hussein Obama" that it means they're using Barrack and Hussein, as "Key Names" as in "Hot Button" issue names, since it makes the dense slow to respond folks think somethings along the lines of; ( you mean that black Kenyan Muslim President that got the slippery route into office. I'm sure Adam didn't mean for it to sound that way, but what he copied and pasted was written to stir up that hatred and bigotry against Obama. I know there's always the comeback of the republican candidates such as Rafael Edwardo Cruz, to make him sound Really Hispanic and Cuban, but democrats and the media aren't using that full given name, just Ted. I think simply the name "Obama" lets everyone in the World know whom someone is talking about. I think it's a great idea to preserve land, we don't need anymore lame suburbs with the same street names throughout like Buena Vista or Peachtree, except with Street on one, Drive on the connecting street, Lane on the next street and Terrace on the one 3 blocks over. Ted Turner and another intelligent few bought up all the land they could to preserve the beauty between Denver and Colorado Springs, to keep that area from becoming one GIANT tract housing subdivision.

Re: [meteorite-list] President Obama Places Over 265 Million Acres Of Land Off-limits
I do agree that the government is terrible at administering anything, be it a local neighborhood dog park or a national forest. BLM rules are a mess and the enforcement is inconsistent at best. But, one thing to remember is that government officials do not come from another galaxy and force their way into Congress. They are the cream of the private sector crop and we put them there. If government sucks, it's because we keep electing people who suck. Worse, 99% of the the choices we get to choose from also suck to roughly equal degrees. What do we expect when we let a bunch of CEO's, lobbyists, hedge funders, washed out lawyers, and ego-tripped doctors run the government? And we get a selection of idiots to pick from every four years - some of those idiots have Ivy League credentials, and some do not, but they all suck. Until the masses demand competent candidates based on merit and not charismatic fools with deep pockets, we will keep getting the same treatment every four years. I don't care if the president or our congresspeople are black, white, male, female, religious, atheist, socialist, libertarian, gay, straight, or whatever. But, I think we should demand competence. Congressmen which no knowledge of science should not sit on committees responsible for funding scientific projects. Presidents or congressmen with no war-fighting experience should not be starting wars, etc. And, by extension, BLM rangers and officials should not be making or enforcing the rules of land management unless they have some degree of expertise in the academic/scientific/engineering or field aspects of the resources they govern. So, back to meteorites and rockhounding - this is what happens when we elect people to oversee resource-rich lands who no background or interest in geology, forestry, or related fields. The rank and file BLM field rangers might know their business, but they do not know the intricacies of the entire body of federal regulations that they are trying to interpret and enforce. The bureaucrats at the top of the chain are so far removed from the field, that they have no expertise with rocks, minerals, or natural resources - they are a bunch of former lobbyists, white collars, and people who have never had their hands dirty. That's my two cents, actual worth may vary widely. ;) PS - I do not think Adam intended his post as racist or Islamophobic. People are getting a little too touchy these days. But, there is a lot of bigotry out there, so those are the days we live in and sometimes appearances matter more than substance. We have to be careful about what we say, where, and how we say it - and, how other people might interpret what we say or play semantics with our words. It sucks, but that's how it is.

Re: [meteorite-list] SPACE ROCKS MAGAZINE
Hi All, I had to pay $25.39 incl. shipping and taxes so i find the $37 Sergey has to pay really absurd. I am pretty sure my copy came from the Czech Republic as well which is closer to Sergey's home than mine. It is sad that Michael's great magazine might not reach it's full sale potential in Europe due to the very high shipping rates. I gladly payed the $25 but i can understand some people can or will not pay almost two times the cost of the magazine for shipping. I would like to thank Michael and his contributors for the awesome magazine they created . I am looking forward to the next issue. I can not imagine it being better than this one but i am sure it will be.

Blurb use different printing and distribution bases according to the buyers location so not all copies are sent from the US. Copies Sent to the UK seem to have been sent from the Czech Republic so not sure why the shipping is so high for you Sergey? The shipping is certainly high but that is out of Michael's control. All I can say is that the magazine itself is more than worth the cost given the quality of the product but it is a shame the shipping cost is putting some people off. I am more than happy to get multiple copies ordered and then bring to Ensisheim for anyone who wants to wait rather than pay shipping. Just let me know :-) Just want to give a shout out to Michael Johnson who has put his heart and soul and many many hours into this project and the end result is truly excellent. I for one will do everything I can to help and support him so that this grows and becomes a great resource to the entire meteorite community. I am sure that Michael would welcome any help from others too, be that submitting articles and photos, offers of helping to distribute copies of the magazine or just general support and encouragement. The magazine is for us all and we need to support it any way we can. Well done Michael, you've done a great job! :-) Cheers Martin Martin Goff www.msg-meteorites.co.uk IMCA #3387 On 12 Feb 2016 16:17, "Graham Ensor via Meteorite-list" wrote: > > Great Marcin...that will help the whole project. > > On Fri, Feb 12, 2016 at 12:31 PM, PolandMET via Meteorite-list > wrote: >> >> Hey >> I was talking with Michael and we are working on a better solution.

Re: [meteorite-list] SPACE ROCKS MAGAZINE
Hi Sergey, Marcin, Zsolt, all, Just had a thought regards your high shipping prices quoted. Did you change the currency to your local currency before ordering? I noticed that in your screenshot you posted Sergey that it was in US dollars. On the Blurb website you can change the currency and I guess that is how the shipping is worked out in combination with your address. Try it and see if it makes a difference?
