Oops.


Wow. Wow. Wow.


Well worth the build-up.


Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, Federal Reserve, Money as Debt, David Rockefeller, Bilderberg Group, International Monetary Fund, Earmarks, New World Order, Nationalizing Banks, Obama & Bernanke, Lobbying, Subprime Mortgage Crisis, Alan Greenspan, Fiat Currency, 2000s Energy Crisis, North American Free Trade Agreement and countless international finance news stories, have all led me to this [...]


Wow. Seriously? 66 years later. Isn’t there some sort of statute of limitations? Don’t get me wrong, morally I’m for it, but I thought the legal system wouldn’t allow such a thing.

Mad as Hell

Howard Beale: I don’t have to tell you things are bad. Everybody knows things are bad. It’s a depression. Everybody’s out of work or scared of losing their job. The dollar buys a nickel’s work, banks are going bust, shopkeepers keep a gun under the counter. Punks are running wild in [...]

In the news today…
The world’s only pink Bottlenose dolphin which was discovered in an inland lake in Louisiana, USA, has become such an attraction that conservationists have warned tourists to leave it alone.


Doomsday Vault

11Dec08

Almost every nation keeps collections of native seeds so local crops can be replanted in case of an agricultural disaster. The Global Seed Vault, opened this year on the far-northern Norwegian island of Spitsbergen, is a backup for the backups. It’s badly needed — as many as half the seed banks in developing countries are [...]


Great interview with Adrianna Huffington. Watch it.


Amazing story.


After convincing Afghan farmers that pomegranate profits would be more than what they make from poppy production (the base of cocaine & heroine), they’re working to convert their fields into pomegranate orchards.
You can even adopt a tree (£8 a year) and get updates about its progress and the family/tribe who are taking care of it.
Great [...]

Dorothy Dixon ate what she could forage from the refrigerator upstairs, where housemates used her for target practice with BBs, burned her with a glue gun and doused her with scalding liquid that peeled away her skin.
They torched what few clothes she had, so she walked around naked. They often pummeled her with an [...]


Interesting article.

“Ants aren’t smart,” Gordon says. “Ant colonies are.” A colony can solve problems unthinkable for individual ants, such as finding the shortest path to the best food source, allocating workers to different tasks, or defending a territory from neighbors. As individuals, ants might be tiny dummies, but as colonies they respond quickly and effectively [...]

I-4 on 1/9

09Jan08

70 cars, 4 dead, 1 highway.

That is our exit & entrance to I-4. The same road Julie takes to work, whether she’s headed to Lakeland or Orlando. A few hours later and she would have been in the midst of it. It was so close that ash from the “controlled” fire, fell on my sister’s [...]
