Theres two ways to go with bio fuel, 1. convert the base stock with methoxide to create bio diesel with little or no conversion to the equipment (the one you hear about in the media) 2. Or convert the equipment to run straight on the base stock. Both are viable, but to produce biodiesel costs to produce are currently about .50 a gallon with retail cost about 2.50 or a bit higher for ASTM certified fuel after taxes. Where as converting the equipment has a one time charge but the fuel is free if you get it yourself or .10 to .20 a gallon if you buy it pre filtered. There are probably over two dozen companies involved with conversions. Anyway I'm involved more in the conversion end of it but I also brew bio diesel.

Del. state police agencies turn to taser guns Controversial control weapon an increasingly popular option "Delaware police departments with Taser experience say the weapon is useful in a variety of situations in which they otherwise would use pepper spray or a baton. They also contend the Taser prevents some confrontations from escalating to where they need to fire their guns." ..."This is one of the most effective tools I've seen to keep officers safe and to keep people safe," said McAllister, because officers can disable suspects from a distance rather than moving close in with a baton or hand strikes... ///////////// Toledo Police 03/11/05 07:35 am "...The revised policy comes less than two months after Jeffrey Turner of Toledo died after he was shocked with a Taser five times by Toledo police officers and four times by Lucas County jail personnel within a three-hour period." ...I'm happy [Tasers] are not being taken away. I think that would be a grave mistake because they're a useful tool in the violent world we live in," said Gregg Harris, president of the Toledo Police Patrolman's Association."
