What up peeps, it's your friendly neighborhood Wisdom here to kick
|
|
the info on the flow (and the non-flows) goin on in da record store.
|
|
|
|
|
|
BOOGIE MONSTERS "The Underwater Album" Well this is the fall joint
|
|
that a lot of people have been waiting for. It has the hard type joints for
|
|
niggas that's into that and enough smooth & mellow joints to play while
|
|
gettin sessed or having a little get together (common on college campuses).
|
|
My personal favorites are Mark of the Beast (dark and just phat), Bronx
|
|
Bombas (a lovely chill track), and Old Man Jacob's Well (one of the best
|
|
storytelling songs I've heard in a long time!). Oh can't forget Salt Water
|
|
Taffy! I freestyled to this track for about a fucking day in my Walkman. The
|
|
lyrics are consistently cool with no awesomely spectacular displays of skills
|
|
but these kids seem like they could hold their own in a cipher. But the music
|
|
makes this a definite tape for the jeeps & walkmans. Butter baby!
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * * (4/5) Slammin!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
FRESH SOUNDTRACK Well I didn't know what to expect when I got this,
|
|
but in the end, I rather enjoyed it. The little Genius joint "Watcha Back" is
|
|
nice with the Genius droppin jewels for those that don't know. My favorite
|
|
is the Raekwon's "Heaven or Hell"... this is the motherfucking shit!!! If you
|
|
don't believe, BETTER ASK SOMEBODY cuz this shit is dope! I played this at
|
|
least 50 times the first night I got this CD. The music..slams, the lyrics..
|
|
slam, and Raekwon's voice adds the flavor to make it butter! The remix of
|
|
"..All So Simple" is lovely too, with a much harder edge, different lyrics
|
|
and different track (sorta) with Ghostface Killer's part being rather lovely.
|
|
The rest of the CD may not appeal to non-heads or new schoolers, but it
|
|
brought back memories of better times for me with lots of classic hip-hop
|
|
joints like Whodini's "Freaks Come Out At Night", Fresh 3 MCs "Fresh", and
|
|
more. Overall, I loved this CD but some may not feel the same.
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * 1/2 (3.5/5) A Hit!
|
|
|
|
B.I.G. " " OK I really didn't expect much from mister Smallz but hey
|
|
I liked "Party & Bullshit" & his little cameo on the last Heavy D tape made
|
|
me slightly curious as to this fat man. One word describes my feelings about
|
|
Biggie Smallz...Nice! The kid is definetely nice! His lyrics not on the level
|
|
of a Nas, Rakim, or Del more than convey his views across. He is a very
|
|
good storyteller and his voice only adds to the effects his lyrics convey.
|
|
The productions goes from OK to DOPE, but gems on this CD are "Machine Gun
|
|
Funk", "Everyday Struggle", "Suicidal Thoughts", and the shiznit "The What"
|
|
a duet with the Method Man (please make this a single w/ a video). Unlike
|
|
some guests on albums, Meth doesn't upstage BIG but they flow like to insane
|
|
brother split at birth. This album is a move in the right direction. (I hate
|
|
Juicy but it's puttin $$$ in his pockets so it's all good I guess)
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * * (4/5) Slammin!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Lo-Life with the album I had to review...
|
|
|
|
COMMON SENSE "Resurrection" Before I continue, I must first say that
|
|
I am from Chicago, have known Rashied Lynn (Common Sense) since about 7 and
|
|
although you may think this is biased, I read the Source's review and I think
|
|
the Source is fulla shit anywayz but they would have given that nigga 4 1/2
|
|
mics if he was from NY but enough of that, one with the review...
|
|
This album contains no guns, no blunts, no bitchez just straight
|
|
lyrics about a nigga and his love for Chicago (which he represents to the
|
|
fullest) and his love for hip-hop. The subject goes from hangin on the
|
|
streets of Chicago (87th to be exact - my old strip), kickin it with females
|
|
in high schools (makes reference to my old HS - Kenwood), and even small
|
|
references to gangs in the Chi. The lyrical depth and methods come at you in
|
|
bursts so quick you have to rewind to pick them all up. He stills quote TV
|
|
like Peg Bundy might and if you from Chicago you will just laugh at the local
|
|
jokes he sticks in his lyrics ("I got more rhymes than folks in the Manor").
|
|
The production is nice on all the tracks, with standouts being "In My Own
|
|
World", "I Used to Love H.E.R.", "Nothing To Do". The album is a winner in
|
|
my book with even non-heads being able to sit back and enjoy 90% of the songs
|
|
on the CD. It seems kinda short compared to the first album but it's still
|
|
got mad flava!
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * * 1/2 (4.5/5) Almost A Classic
|
|
|
|
And a fuck you to anyone who doesn't like my fucking rating, cuz the
|
|
shit is slammin so don't front!!
|
|
|
|
|
|
Anywayz, I still haven't heard that new Black Moon shit yet, but out
|
|
in the Midwest, shit seems to take forever to get here anyway. That new Craig
|
|
Mack remix video is the shit! How'd he get LL to work with them I'll never
|
|
know but it's nice to see LL doing something beside the "Big Bad Wolf"!!

|
|
|
with your host for today: Lo-Life
|
|
|
|
I've seen so much shit lately between tapes & the movies this is
|
|
goin to be a little longer than usual. So let's kick it...
|
|
|
|
|
|
"The Professional: Golgo 13" Yep a cartoon, but a PHAT ASS CARTOON!
|
|
If you even like action movies a little, this shit will be the mother-
|
|
fuckin bomb! Sex, violence, action, plot twists, the whole nine. Duke Togo,
|
|
a world famous hitman known as Golgo 13, is paid to do a hit on a rich MF's
|
|
son and of course finishes the job and that's when shit starts to happen.
|
|
After that job, he's goes on another to kill some big Mafia guy in Italy who
|
|
turns out to be a bitch, who he fucks a couple times and then kills. Then
|
|
the big guns (CIA, FBI, Armed Forces, etc.) try to off Golgo 13 but to no
|
|
avail. The rest of the movie revolves around the rich MF paying the big guns
|
|
to off Golgo-13 while Mr. Togo is still getting his loot on (and his fuck
|
|
on!) The people they throw at him are dope yet he overcomes and the ending is
|
|
classic. I must say one thing, he gets more pussy in the first 30 minutes
|
|
than a lot of niggas do all week! But, this shit is dope and go rent it (or
|
|
take it, whatever you prefer) from Blockbuster and just get blunted (or not,
|
|
I wasn't for once) and enjoy!
|
|
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * * 1/2 (4.5/5) Almost a Classic!!
|
|
|
|
"Above The Rim" OK so I'm a little late peeping this movie, but for
|
|
those that haven't seen it either, I'll kick the Willie Bobo. The story is
|
|
about this kid (Duane Martin) whose ball skillz are goin to get him to
|
|
college at Georgetown (my favorite school!!). He's a gun (a fucking rocket
|
|
launcher!!) and a showboat, but has skillz notheless. He become torn between
|
|
his coach whose trying to help him get to school and a thug from around the
|
|
way (Tupac) who wants him for this tournament to win some loot. Tupac's
|
|
brother (Leon) is a former school legend who tries to keep Duane from fallin
|
|
off like he did and keep him on the right path. The end is the usual sappy
|
|
shit with Tupac's team beating the shit (literally) out of the school team
|
|
in the finals and Leon's lacing up the Js to play with Duane and they win.
|
|
The end is kinda funny though cuz... well I'll let you see it for yourself
|
|
but it tickled me a little (I'm a sick person!). It's a straight flick but
|
|
it ain't quite what I expected.
|
|
|
|
RATING: * * * (3/5) Good
|
|
|
|
|
|
"Jason's Lyric" I hated this movie and I'd give it no stars but it
|
|
had redeeming qualities. First, the plot is sad. It's a love story that tries
|
|
to be gangsta flick that tries to be a love story. It's a about this guy
|
|
Jason(Allen Payne from New Jack City) ,his just released brother from jail
|
|
(Bokeem Woodbine from Strapped) and this girl Lyric (Jada Pinkett -her FINE
|
|
ASS, why she got blond ass hair NOW?!?!) and their little three way joint.
|
|
Jason tries to keep his brother Joshua off the streets and keep him straight,
|
|
Lyric wants Jason to leave and go somewhere (?!) with her, and Joshua just
|
|
wants to hustle and get drunk everyday. Treach (get to him in a minute) is
|
|
Lyric's brother who get Joshua in on this little heist and well... the plot
|
|
follows formulas after that.
|
|
Now, my many beefs!!!! First, why is Lyric a goddamn space cadet?!
|
|
This broad drove me nuts with the shit she said and did! Jason an fuckin
|
|
idiot who literally chases Lyric down to get with her! (She's fine but stop
|
|
sweating please!) Joshua's an idiot for gettin in on the heist with Treach
|
|
and his crew cuz he don't know them MFs and you never do no dirt with MFs
|
|
you don't know cuz they will trick off in a minute if they caught! (Go see
|
|
Resevoir Dogs - dude didn't trick, he just was 5-0). Oh, and the big one,
|
|
TREACH CANNOT ACT!!! He couldn't act up if he was on cloud nine with
|
|
directions!!! His character who was supposed to be SO HARD, after getting his
|
|
ASS KICKED didn't tell his "crew" who did it, and cried like a bitch when
|
|
they got killed and his sista got shot!
|
|
Now, the few good points. Jada Pinkett naked....YES is all I can say
|
|
cuz that nigga Jason GOT BUSY!! The movie was funny when it wasn't supposed
|
|
to be (I was lifted but the rest of the audience wasn't and they laughed at
|
|
the same shit!) like at the end when Lyric gets shot, just peep what Joshua
|
|
says! The shit was stupid funny. And I don't care about telling what happen-
|
|
ed in this movie cuz it was BUTT!!
|
|
|
|
RATING: * (1/5) w/o noticing a naked Jada Pinkett
|
|
|
|
RATING: * 1/2 (1.5/5) noticing a naked Jada Pinkett
|
|
|
|
|
|
Tupac Interview on BET. No rating here, but those who missed it, it
|
|
was kinda cool seeing "Mr. Thug Life" being calm and relaxed and talking like
|
|
the individual we know he is. He sounded very intellectual (no surprise I
|
|
always thought he was smart) and talked about his various experiences and
|
|
scuffles with the law. I think he has always be "hard" but not the insane
|
|
maniac he portrays himself, or I should say the media, portrays him to be. He
|
|
just anotha nigga out here with a few more papes than the rest of us, and
|
|
after his incidents with police kickin his ass and crackin his dome in
|
|
Oakland (I think it was) and them off-duty bitches tried to shoot him down
|
|
South he kinda like FUCK IT & THEM. But if you get a chance to see it, just
|
|
watch and listen to Tupac Shakur, not 2PAC, talk about himself and you will
|
|
understand him if you didn't already!
|
|
|
|
|
|
OK. There's not much else to not on the idiot tube or at the flicks
|
|
except there's a new Spike joint comin out, I missed the new Nightmare (had
|
|
free passes and lost em), and some other shit too. So next iss, I try to
|
|
catch some more shit and get back with ya. Peace!

Presidential Powers
|
|
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
|
|
|
|
This nation has been gearing up for internal problems for many years.
|
|
Hundreds of Presidential Executive Orders have been issued to allow
|
|
emergency powers under any type of crisis-- perceived or real. A
|
|
Presidential Executive Order, whether Constitutional or not, becomes law
|
|
simply by its publication in the Federal Registry, bypassing Congress
|
|
completely. Here are just a few Executive Orders that would suspend the
|
|
Constitution and the Bill of Rights. These Executive Orders have been on
|
|
record for nearly 30 years and could be enacted by the simple stroke of a
|
|
presidential pen:
|
|
|
|
PEO10990 allows the government to take over all modes of transportation
|
|
and control of hihgways and seaports.
|
|
PEO10995 allows the government to seize and control the communication
|
|
media.
|
|
PEO10997 allows the government to take over all electrical power, gas,
|
|
petroleum, fuels and minerals.
|
|
PEO10998 allows the government to take control of all food sources and
|
|
farms.
|
|
PEO11000 allows the government to mobilize civilians into work brigades
|
|
under government supervision.
|
|
PEO11001 allows the government to take over all health, education and
|
|
welfare functions.
|
|
PEO11002 designates the Postmaster General to operate a national
|
|
registration of all persons.
|
|
PEO11003 allows the government to seize control of all airports and
|
|
aircraft, including commercial aircraft.
|
|
PEO11004 allows the housing and Finance Authority to relocate communities,
|
|
build new housing with public funds, designate areas to be abandoned, and
|
|
establish new locations for populations.
|
|
PEO11005 allows the government to take control of railroads, inland
|
|
waterways and public storage facilities.
|
|
PEO11051 specifies the responsibility of the Office of Emergency Planning
|
|
and gives authorization to put all Executive Orders into effect in times
|
|
of increased international tensions and economic or financial crisis.
|
|
PEO11310 grants authority to the Department of Justice to enforce the
|
|
plans set out in Executive Orders, to institute industrial support, to
|
|
establish judicial and legislative liaison, to control all aliens, to
|
|
operate penal and correctional institutions, and to advise and assist the
|
|
President.
|
|
|
|
Without Congressional approval, the President now has the power to
|
|
transfer whole populations to any part of the country, the power to
|
|
suspend the Press and to enforce a national registration of all persons.
|
|
The President, in essence, has dictatorial powers never provided to him
|
|
under the Constitution. The President has the power to suspend the Bill of
|
|
Rights in any real or perceived emergency. Unlike Lincoln or Roosevelt,
|
|
these powers are not derived from any wartime need, but from *any*
|
|
crisis-- domestic or foreign, hostile or economic.

Don't really care why you'd want to but hey knock yourself out!
|
|
|
|
Telnet to port 25 of the machine you want the mail to appear to
|
|
originate from. Enter your message as in this example:
|
|
|
|
HELO bellcore.com
|
|
MAIL FROM:Voyager@bellcore.com

(Enter your mail text)
|
|
.
|
|
QUIT
|
|
|
|
On systems that have RFC 931 implemented, spoofing your "MAIL FROM:"
|
|
line will not work. Test by sending yourself fakemail first.

Soda Can Bomb
|
|
-=-=-=-=-=-=-
|
|
|
|
This is an anti-personnel bomb meant for taking out crowds. The bottom
|
|
of a pop can is half cut out and bent back. A giant firecracker (or other
|
|
explosive is put in and surrounded with nuts and bolts or rocks. The fuse is
|
|
then armed with a chemical delay in a plastic drinking straw.
|
|
After first making sure there are no kids around, the acid or
|
|
glycerin is put in the straw and the can is set down by a tree or wall where
|
|
it won't be disturbed. The delay should give you three to five minutes. It
|
|
will have a shattering effect on any visitors.

Soda Can of Death II
|
|
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
Edited by Wisdom
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is one of the most deadly, evil, vile, destuctive and just plain
|
|
dire explosive devices known. This weapon operates on the "Deadman's Switch"
|
|
theory, but is easily disguised as an innocent recyclable object. The reason
|
|
it is so demonic, is that once it is set, merely TOUCHING the device will set
|
|
it off. Thus one could place it on a doorstep, behind a car, or just in the
|
|
middle of the street where some innocent passer-by could mistakenly set it
|
|
off. Even worse, some cheap fool, or environmentally concious person could
|
|
set it off. Depending on what type of explosive you use, and whether or not
|
|
you add shrapnel, the device's power could range from a small flare, to a
|
|
tremendous detonation!
|
|
|
|
The concept is quite simple, and will be given in an easy step by step
|
|
format, for your reading pleasure. :)
|
|
|
|
1. Decide what you want to do with the bomb, to use it as a scare tactic, or
|
|
to detonate a city block, or maybe just a small, but powerful explosion.
|
|
|
|
2. Pick up the following ingredients for the bomb:
|
|
(1) Aluminum can used for soda or beer. Ranging from 12oz and up.
|
|
(1) Spool of wire, any color. Preferably solid. Fone wire works nice.
|
|
(1) Mercury Switch.(optional)
|
|
(1) Mini SPST Switch.
|
|
(1) SPST pushbutton switch. Normally ON.
|
|
(1) Spool of solder, and a nice iron. Neatness counts!
|
|
(1) Nine Volt Battery.
|
|
|
|
2A. Now here's where your decision in step 1 counts.. If you want a scare
|
|
tactic, Pick up some flash powder (or flare powder) and a nice 1.5V
|
|
flashlight bulb. (convieniently available at your local RADIO-SHACK)
|
|
|
|
2B. WHAT!? You want to detonate a city block?! You are a lunatic!
|
|
Go to your local store and pick up some ammonium nitrate (instant
|
|
coldpacks, or fertilizer ). Now aquire, or make (not advised) a nice #8
|
|
blasting cap. On second thought, making one might be better for your
|
|
purposes, because you can make it MILITARY style. (75% more powerful than
|
|
conventional blasting caps. ) #8's have a tendency not to work well with
|
|
Ammonium Nitrate.
|
|
|
|
2C. Just a nice routine explosion eh? Pick up a flashlight bulb (1.5V) and
|
|
some gun powder, or black powder.
|
|
|
|
3. Take your nice, innocent can, and empty the contents. Cut the top CLEAR
|
|
off right under the rim. DON'T Be messy, if you bend the can, start over.
|
|
Neatness makes the bomb WORK.
|
|
|
|
4. Drill a hole in the direct center of the bottom of the can, barely big
|
|
enough to thread the pushbutton switch in, and secure it with the handy
|
|
bolt that comes with it.
|
|
|
|
5. Now cut a small rectangular hole, near the inside edge of the bottom of
|
|
the can to house the mini switch.
|
|
|
|
6. OK, the CAN section of your process is complete. Time for the hard part.
|
|
|
|
Hope you can solder.

|
|
|
|
|
|
Ok, now that I've wasted your precious time with that horrid diagram, I
|
|
will explain it. The wires leading to and from the mercury switch are NOT
|
|
TO BE PUT in if the mercury switch is omited.
|
|
|
|
Simply enough, The current goes through the wires to the first switch,
|
|
if the first switch is ON, it goes to the next switch, if this switch is on,
|
|
It goes to the detonator, which in turn explodes the device. I recommend you
|
|
test your circuit with a multi-tester before you go about construction of
|
|
the bomb. This will help to assure a NON-DUD. I advise that you remove the
|
|
nice detonator before doing this, unless of course you are a masochist.
|
|
|
|
7. You managed to follow the diagram and constructed the WORKING(optimal
|
|
word here) circuit. OK.. now the fun begins. Place the pushbutton
|
|
switch in it's proper hole, and secure. Do the same with the mini
|
|
switch. Tape the good ol nine-volt battery to the inside of the can.
|
|
Add some epoxy for safety's sake. MAKE SURE NO WIRES TOUCH EACH OTHER!
|
|
IF THEY DO.. well.. alas.. a good militant was he.
|
|
|
|
8. OK, fill the can up about 1/4th the way up with your explosive of
|
|
choice. Pack if desired. Get a small amount of shrapnel if desired
|
|
and add generously. Add no more than 1/4th the total weight of the can.
|
|
|
|
9. If you opted to use the mercury switch, place that here. Place it in a
|
|
manner so that if the can is moved from the vertical direction it will
|
|
set off the detonator.
|
|
|
|
10. If you are mercury-less place the detonator here. If you used the switch
|
|
fill the can with enough explosives to cover your newly placed
|
|
switch. If you have used the flashlight bulb, now is the time to
|
|
CAREFULLY break the bulb, WITHOUT damaging the filament.. test with a
|
|
multi-tester.. If you screw up.. your bad luck.
|
|
|
|
11. If you used the switch, place your detonator here. In either case, fill
|
|
the can the rest of the way up.
|
|
|
|
12. Get out the epoxy and glue the top back on.
|
|
|
|
You have just made a soda can.. Now, if you are proceding with this file,
|
|
before reading it completely, you are probably dead about now. Here's why you
|
|
died:
|
|
|
|
During the final stages, you left the mini switch ON. This is the arming
|
|
switch, and should ONLY be used during testing, and planting.
|
|
|
|
You managed to build up a large amount of static electricity and discharged
|
|
it into a can full of explosives. Bad move. Use ANTI-Static spray to avoid
|
|
this.
|
|
|
|
You did this by a nice, warm open fire. Or better yet you smoked nearby the
|
|
device. Bravo on an excellent demise.
|
|
|
|
You left the device stiing in your nice hot window sill, where it exploded
|
|
killing your family. I applaud you.
|
|
|
|
You decided the instructions weren't good enough for you, and WINGED it.
|
|
|
|
You let some wires touch in the final stage of construction. Avoid this by
|
|
coating all wires and leads with melted plastic, use electical tape, or
|
|
covered wires. The second method is prefered.
|
|
|
|
Well, If you got this far.. you are alive. (I hope!!)
|
|
|
|
OK, you have your nice, prepared device, and wish to plant it. This is
|
|
simple. Sort of. There is a danger factor involved, so be forewarned.
|
|
|
|
Take the device to the site. DO NOT arm it until it is absolutely
|
|
ready! This is CRITICAL! The easiest place to put is is on a raised platform
|
|
such as a door step. Place the can on the edge of the step, make sure it is
|
|
perfectly vertical. The pushbutton switch should be pushed in now, and in the
|
|
OFF position. Now CAREFULLY arm the device. CAREFULLY slide it over to about
|
|
the center of the door step, so that it gets kicked over when someone steps
|
|
outside. If you used the mercury switch, you now realize why it is optional.
|
|
If you move the can too fast, the switch will detonate you.
|
|
|
|
If you are placing this on a large flat surface, using the mercury
|
|
switch is HIGHLY advised against! Place a VERY thin sheet of paperboard under
|
|
your can, compressing the bottom switch. Poke a hole in the bottom of the can,
|
|
so that it can be armed. Arm the device, and place it on the ground. Push down
|
|
on the top of the device, and SLOWLY remove the paperboard. If the paperboard
|
|
was thin enough you survived.
|
|
|
|
Get the hell out of there, and DO yourself a favor, and wear gloves..
|
|
finger prints are NOT A GOOD THING!!
|
|
|
|
Ok, The mercury switch is VERY VERY dangerous, but it also makes it
|
|
absolutely impossible to disarm the bomb should someone discover it. The
|
|
paperboard can be simply cut away from the edges in the flat surface bomb.
|
|
This can be extremely useful in circumstances where you are placing the bomb
|
|
in an area that is very bumpy, or rocky, like loose sand or dirt. Or if you
|
|
just prefer to keep your life.
|
|
|
|
How Your Bomb Works:
|
|
|
|
Well, simply enough, once it is armed, if the pushbutton switch is released
|
|
the circuit will be completed. With the mercury switch added, if either the
|
|
switch or the button is tripped, it will explode. The current will set off
|
|
the detonator, or if you used the flashlight bulb, It will cause a high
|
|
intensity flame to be produced for about 1-2 seconds. This is quite enough
|
|
to explode any light explosive.
|
|
|
|
To tell you the truth, you can use any explosive that you desire with this
|
|
bomb. One time I even saw one of these made completely of THERMITE. Holy shit
|
|
the whole can just melted, and fused with the road tar. If you want, you can
|
|
use plastique, or just pour in some nitroglycerine(HA!).

Saltpeter (or Potassium Nitrate)
|
|
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
|
|
Potassium Nitrate (Saltpeter) can be extracted from many natural
|
|
sources (as well as bought from some drug stores) and can be used
|
|
to make nitric acid, black powder, and many other pyrotechnics. The
|
|
yield ranges from .1 to 10% by weight, depending on the fertility of
|
|
the soil.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ingredients: Source:
|
|
============ =======
|
|
Nitrate bearing earth or Soil containing old decaying
|
|
other material, about 3-1/2 vegetable or animal matter;
|
|
gallons (13-1/2 liters). Old cellars and/or farm dirt floor;
|
|
Earth from old burial brounds;
|
|
Decayed stone or mortar building
|
|
foundations
|
|
|
|
Fine wood ashes about a 1/2 cup Totally burned whitish wood ash powder
|
|
(1/8 liter) Totally burned paper (Black)
|
|
|
|
Bucket (or container) about 5
|
|
gallons (19 liters) in volume
|
|
(Plastic, Metal, or Wood)
|
|
|
|
2 pieces of finely woven cloth larger
|
|
than botton of container
|
|
|
|
Shallow pan or dish, at least as
|
|
big as bottom of bucket
|
|
|
|
Shallow heat resistant container
|
|
(Ceramic, Metal, etc...)
|
|
|
|
1-3/4 gallons of water
|
|
(6-3/4 liters)
|
|
|
|
Something to make holes
|
|
(Screwdriver, knife, etc...)
|
|
|
|
1 gallon of alcohol (4 liters)
|
|
(Whiskey, rubbing alcohol, etc..)
|
|
|
|
Heat source (Fire, electric heater, etc..)
|
|
|
|
Paper
|
|
Tape
|
|
|
|
NOTE: The ratios of ingredients are only important. For double the saltpeter,
|
|
double the quantities used.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Punch holes in bottom of the bucket. Spread one piece of cloth inside
|
|
the bucket. Place wood ashes on cloth and spread to make a layer about the
|
|
thickness of the cloth. Place second cloth on top of the ashes. Place dirt in
|
|
the bucket. Place bucket over shallow container. Bucket can be supported on
|
|
sticks if necessary. Boil water and pour it thru dirt in bucket a little at a
|
|
time. Allow water to run thru holes in bucket into shallow container. Be sure
|
|
water goes thru ALL the dirt. Allow drained liquid to cool and settle for 1 to
|
|
2 hours.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Do not pour all the water at once because this may cause a stoppage.
|
|
|
|
Carefully drain off liquid into heat resistant container. Discard any
|
|
sludge remaining in bottom of shallow container. Boil mixture over hot fire
|
|
for at least 2 hours. Small grains of salt will begin to appear in the
|
|
solution. Scoop these out as they form, using a strainer of some kind. (Paper
|
|
,etc..) When liquid has boiled down to have it's original size, remove from
|
|
fire and let it sit. After half an hour add an equal amount of alcohol. When
|
|
mixture is poured thru paper, small white crystal will collect on top of it.
|
|
|
|
To purify the potassium nitrate, re-dissolve the dry crystals in the
|
|
smallest possible amount of boiled water. Remove any salt crystal that appear
|
|
and pour thru an improvised filter made of several pieces of paper and
|
|
evaporate or gently heat the concentrated solution to dryness. Spread crystals
|
|
on flat surface and allow to dry. The potassium nitrate crystals are ready for
|
|
use!

Uses for Saltpeter(Potassium Nitrate)
|
|
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
|
|
|
|
|
|
Black Powder
|
|
-------------
|
|
This can be used as blasting or gun powder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Ingredients
|
|
===========
|
|
3 cups Saltpeter, granulated (3/4 liters)
|
|
2 cups Wood Charcoal, powdered (1/2 liters)
|
|
1/2 cup Sulfur, powdered (1/8 liters)
|
|
5 pints Alcohol (Same as above..) (2-1/2 liters)
|
|
3 cups Water (3/4 liters)
|
|
Heat Source
|
|
2 Two gallon buckets (one being heat resistant)
|
|
(7-1/2 liters)
|
|
Flat window screen, at least 1 foot square (30 cm)
|
|
Large wooden stick
|
|
Cloth, at least 2 feet square (60 cm)
|
|
|
|
|
|
Place alcohol in one of the buckets. Place potassium nitrate, charcoal
|
|
and sulfur in the heat resistant bucket. Add 1 cup of water and mix thoroughly
|
|
with wooden stick until all ingredients are dissolved. Add remaining water to
|
|
mixture. Place bucket on heat source and stir until small bubbles begin to
|
|
form.
|
|
|
|
CAUTION: Do not boil mixture. Be sure ALL of the mixture stays wet. If any is
|
|
dry, as on the sides of bucket, it may ignite!!
|
|
|
|
Remove bucket from heat and pour mixture into alcohol while stirring
|
|
quickly. Let alcohol mixture stand about 5 minutes. Strain mixture through
|
|
cloth to obtain black powder. Get rid of liquid. Wrap cloth around black
|
|
powder and squeeze to remove excess liquid. Place screening over dry bucket.
|
|
Place workable amount of damp powder on granulate but rubbing powder thru
|
|
screen.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: If granulated particles appear to stick together and change shape, re-
|
|
combine entire batch of powder and strain again and go from there!
|
|
|
|
Spread granulated black powder on flat dry surface so that layer about
|
|
1/2 inch (1-1/4 cm) is formed. Allow to dry. Use radiator, or direct sunlight.
|
|
this should be dried as soon as possible, preferably in one hour. The longer
|
|
the drying period, the less effective the black powder.
|
|
|
|
CAUTION: Remove from heat AS SOON AS granules are dry. Black powder is now
|
|
ready to use.
|
|
|
|
More uses for Saltpeter in later issues....

2 long piece of copper speaker wire
|
|
|
|
|
|
First take the two phone plugs and plug them into any audio OUT jacks
|
|
in the back of the tuner. Now wrap the 2 Tinned wires from the end of the
|
|
phone plugs around the input screws on the linear amp. Next wrap each of the
|
|
speaker wires onto the output screws on the linear amp. Take the end of the
|
|
speaker wire and connect it to the HAM antenna.

|
Once you finish the sctual construction of the transmitter you have
|
|
to decide on what sation to broadcast on. The station you choose depends on
|
|
the length of the HAM antenna. The equation to find length of the antenna to
|
|
use for a station is: Antenna's length in feet is 468 divided by the freq in
|
|
MHz.
|
|
|
|
Like for 96.3 you divide 468 by 96.3 then that answer is the length of the
|
|
antenna: 468/96.3 = 4.86 feet, so cut off 1.14 feet of the 6 footer.
|
|
|
|
Now play whatever you want through the audio out jack on the tuner and
|
|
it will be amplified and sent out to the public.

Napalm Light Bulb Bomb

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
|
|
|
|
Take a light bulb and crack the globe part off. (Don't break the glass!)
|
|
Take some gasoline and dishwashing detergent and mix it until it looks like
|
|
honey. Fill the globe up about 1/2 inch full (don't let it touch where the
|
|
filaments wound be). Place the top back on and scotch tape (or superglue) it
|
|
back together (lightly). Now, turn OFF the lights and replace the bulb. The
|
|
next person to flip the switch will get sprayed with flames that can't be
|
|
put out! (They have to burn out!)
