it's even leaking tar sands oil in people neighborhoods.. this is just a littel part of it;
and yes cashcow, this exactly why we folks involved in food production for the whole world didn't want the keystone pipeline running thru the Ogalalla Aquifer.... remebr that food producers are Conservative minded in general and we want to Conserve our ability to produce food forever...
The Arkansas Oil Spill Photos the Keystone Cabal Doesn't Want You to See
Exxon’s pipeline, known as Pegasus, can carry 96,000 barrels a day. The 20-inch (51-centimeter) line runs to Nederland, Texas, from Patoka, Illinois. The pipeline carried a type of dilbit similar to what would be transported on Keystone.
One question central to the debate is whether this type of fuel is more corrosive than conventional crude.
Fuel from Alberta’s oil sands can pose a greater risk if it is transported at a higher temperature or under greater pressure, Richard Kuprewicz, president of Accufacts Inc., a Redmond, Washington-based pipeline safety consultant, said yesterday in a telephone interview.
Operators using modern pipeline-safety techniques can manage the risks by cleaning out the line more frequently or carefully monitoring how the bitumen is diluted, he said.
“You just don’t write off the corrosion threat,” he said. “You’ve got to be sure you’re managing it.”

You don't have to "scribe" to jack. Just open your eyes and view multiple news sources. Not that hard to do.

Yup...that's a great photoshopped photo. Maybe you can find something real next time.

the prototype F-35 Joint Strike Fighter Helmet can see right into your soul- serioulsy? this thing is supposed to create a "virutal reality" where the pilot sees thru the plane and beyond:
series of cameras on the outside of the stealth warplane feed high-resolution images into the helmet, including infra-red images at night, which are then projected on to the inside of the pilot's visor.
Special sensors inside the cockpit track the movement of the helmet, so that when the pilot turns his head his view of the skies or ground outside changes accordingly.
When he looks down he sees not his own feet on the cockpit floor but the ground below, slipping past at hundreds of miles per hour.
On-board computers also feed in essential flight and combat data on to the display, as well as superimposing target symbols to locate enemy and friendly aircraft or ground targets, even if they are too far away to see with the naked eye.
The supersonic Joint Strike Fighter is due to replace the Harrier jump jet, and is being developed jointly with America.

now THIS one is photoshopped... the company (Hyperstealth Biotechnology ) even admits it in their adds, but goes on to claim they re only doing htis for security reasons
