While wasting time browsing the Internet the other day, I came across the story of a young American woman named Holly Mann, who is an Iraqi war vet, and a single mother of a 3 year old boy. She’s only 25 and lives in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
What’s remarkable is that, after her service in Iraq, she was living in the US, pregnant and penniless, and decided to do something bold to change her life. For six months she read all she could about Internet Marketing, read about the scams, learned what successful marketers do, and after her baby was born, sold everything to pay for her airline ticket, and flew to Thailand. She had a small pension coming in from her Army service, and lived on that.
Within 4 months, however, she was bringing in over US$12,000 a month through her Internet Marketing efforts.
The story of how she did that makes fascinating reading. She bases her success on offering straight-up, honest ways to make money, no scams. She calls herself “Honest Holly” and has written a book called “Honest Riches” which is available here. If you’ve been thinking about trying to make some money on the side, you would be hard pressed to find a better mentor.

With all the excitement over rising gasoline prices, I did some research on using a water-based fuel cell. They are cheap and easy to build. Basically, they use electrolysis to break water down into hydrogen and oxygen gases. The unstable mixture is called Oxyhydrogen and has the chemical symbol HHO (as opposed to liquid water which is H2O).
The gas is injected into the incoming air stream to the engine, which means that the efficiency of the engine improves. When HHO burns, it recombines back to water. This means that the pistons now have water in them, as well as gasoline. Does this damage the pistons? Apparently not. People report that the engine runs smoother, with less pinging and knocking.
I have read reports from many people saying they got 50% or better gas mileage.
Since water is a lot cheaper than gasoline, this seems like an obvious way to go. One wonders why car manufacturers don’t provide this as an option, or even as a permanent feature.
What does it cost? Less than $100, including the self-help instruction guide.
And how do you do it?
The equipment necessary is not complicated, basically a glass or plastic jar of a litre or so in volume, with electrolysis plates or coils inside, filled with water. You need electricity to make the electrolysis happen; this comes from the car battery. You also need a hose to connect from the top of the jar to the air intake of the motor. This feeds the gas into the engine.
I made a web site to talk about this in more detail. It’s at
