I continue to be amazed that well educated, highly intelligent Chinese men can honestly believe the that Keratin, the substance of hair and nails, will effect their ability to function sexually.   That is afterall what Rhino horns are composed of, keratin.   If it seems to work it is only the placebo effect.   They should switch to Viagra which has a clinically proven and very real effect.   

"Especially on a windy day"...if he were intelligent he should have noticed it was windy and postponed the dusting.    On the other hand maybe he was operating as instructed by Monsanto and had no choice.   They are just another coprorate giant with no concern for anything beyond next quarters dividend.    No morals, no conscience, large level of untempered greed.   Of course the corporation is legally clear, they have an entire department of lawyers keeping them "clean".   Bet they use off shore accounts to avoid paying tax on profits too.

Privatizing anything lets the robber barons loose.   I know, we will build in "checks"..... and the robber barons will turn loose their best and brightest to determine how to avoid, evade, convolute, etc to turn it to their strip and rape corporate/personal profit.     We really can't enforce existing treaties now, add lawyers waving stacks of exchange agreements wandering thru dozens of counties and just imagine what it will be........the seas will be bare.   Can't think of a dumber idea.

Obama really has to clear out the Bush people.   It will be difficult because they are under every rock, b ut it must be done.

Remember bird flu...........we were all going to die.   I am really getting tired of the flash of panic we are subject to every time a new bug or a new threat arises.   Does anyone in the media or the government remember the story about the little boy who cried wolf?

Are you talking about the Arthur D Little that was very inventive and forward thinking in the early years of the 20th century and went bankrupt in 2002 or the Paris outfit that bought the name and is a major oil/gas company with a serious interest in stopping any inovation that would eliminate most of the need for oil and gas?????

coal fired power plants

The governments worker bees do care and do understand.   This is a great example of how they respond when the freaken idiots that have been controlling the govenment for the last eight years are bagged and dumped.   Let us all hope the freaks put Palin up again.   It's the best thing they have done for us and the environment in years.On EPA board freezes construction of new coal-fired power plants in U.S. posted 1 year ago 15 Responses

disposal of leaves

I am serious about protecting the environment.   Unless paper towels are really yechy they are left to dry and are added to my recycle.   So on composting leaves.....not practical unless you have an 8 x 8 yard.   I have a double sized city lot with large old trees.   My raking yields four piles of leaves, my height.   This is not garden compost material, it is trash.   Our town (Plymouth MA) does not provide trash pick-up, we drive our trash to central pick-up locations or to the dump.  Yard waste is not welcome on an ongoing basis.   Fortunately I have solved my problem, but I say again, composting is not a practical solution to leaf disposal.   I have not even mentioned people like myself who do not enjoy gardening so don't garden and don't use compost.  A better solution to leaf disposal is needed.

steven's indictment

Great!   I am always happy to see a dishonest politician caught.  It gives me a little faith.  I am also pleased that this will also stop the foolish determination to get a multi million dollar useless bridge somewhere(anywhere) in Alaska.On Alaska Sen.
