A Much Needed Action

http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2009/04/it-is-time-to-dissolve-all-central.html

I fully agree with the arguments and conclusions in this article.


Dogs and the Healthy Companionship They Provide

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/dr-patricia-fitzgerald/welcome-bo-obama-the-wond_b_185981.html

Bo Obama, the "First Dog", provides great benefits to Barrack, Michelle, and their daughters, like many if not most dogs do for citizens across our nation.


Bottom of the Barrel Company

I had no idea Texas stunk so bad as it does on so many socially significant categories. Its like they are New Mexico with meth added.


Long Awaited Improvements Coming

http://www.casperstartribune.com/articles/2009/04/19/news/wyoming/c826c3a5b6e6b0a88725759c00212964.txt

An article that gives a little history and recent developments on the south side of Cheyenne. I temporarily currently reside on the north edge of central Cheyenne, northeast of downtown. This city does seems strikingly divided and segregated even today as it has for decades.


Big Piney: Another Form of Paradise

http://www.casperstartribune.com/articles/2009/04/19/features/range/8ded99efc97bc56b8725759c0020fcb7.txt

You want to go to the middle of nowhere, this is the place. Big Piney is out on the high desert of Western Wyoming with views of the Wyoming Range mountains, miles and miles away from any towns, let alone a city. Winters are long and challenging, and summers and autumns are all too short.


Compromises with a Cost

http://www.azcentral.com/arizonarepublic/news/articles/2009/04/19/20090419env-attitudes0419.html

These findings are not surprising. Ones economic circumstances will always take a priority over everything else, including some as critical as the environment. Global warming is happening and will go unstopped for quite a time ahead as the individual bottom line is number oe for most of us.


A Determination Likely Made

http://cityroom.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/04/17/child-obesity-is-linked-to-chemicals-in-plastics/

This is likely to be firmly substantiated within a short period. It should result in the ban of all foods and substances taken orally or applied to the skin being placed and sold in plastic containers with this chemical. That would mean a wholesale change to packaging and huge numbers of lawsuits.


The Consequences of Mankind's Interaction with the Galagagos Islands

http://www.csmonitor.com/2009/0419/p07s02-wogn.html

This among the top ten places on the planet I would like to see firsthand, but I also know that we outside humans should keep our numbers to a strict minimum when considering making a visit to this special place.


An Unobtainable Ideal for Increasingly More

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/04/17/60minutes/main4951968.shtml

Retirement ?! I will never get to know what this, even if I was to make to my 60s. Many, many people will also never know what is with this economic collapse and corporations so heartlessly getting rid of the pension system in my adult years that strongly existed before then.


Cold Fusion a Reality ?

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2009/04/17/60minutes/main4952167.shtml

I will believe it when I see it and its affirmed by a wide variety of experts.


Sights I Want to See and Experience Someday

http://www.baseballamerica.com/today/minors/business-beat/2009/267952.html

I always have wanted to take a two months long road trip to see all the Major League baseball ballparks, but I would also like to take a summer long road trip to see all the AAA and AA minor league baseball ballparks and then hit all the A and Rookie League ballparks another summer. That is a lot of country to take in.


Squeezing Ever More Money out of Everyone and Anyone

http://www.latimes.com/classified/realestate/news/la-fi-harney19-2009apr19,0,6099613.story

This kind of news is sickening: banks abusing homebuyers and homesellers all because the banks are so incompetently and criminally run across the nation.


Very Warm Temperatures Headed East Through the Week

http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2009/04/beachgoers-are-enjoying-80-degree-temperatures-today-courtesy-of-unusually-late-santa-ana-winds-that-have-blown-into-south.html

With these record high temperatures being observed in Southern California this weekend, it can be expected thiskind of heat is headed our way and to points farther east this week, adjusted for altitude.


Superbly Excellent News

http://www.azcentral.com/business/articles/2009/04/19/20090419biz-solarplant0420.html

The perfect place for this kind of alternative clean energy development, and hopefully the first of many more across the sunshine gifted Mountain West.


Cell Phone Use Results in 5 Children Dead

http://www.azcentral.com/news/articles/2009/04/18/20090418texasstorm18-ON.html

This tragedy will result in enactment of laws in at least several states which will ban the use of cell phones in motor vehicles, including in Colorado probably.


Ken Burns to Film Tribute to America's Crown Jewels

http://www.seattlepi.com/connelly/405297_joel20.html

Something to look forward to this autumn: a Ken Burns series on PBS that looks into our national parks....


The Wonder Food, Blueberries

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/04/090419170112.htm

I will make a concerted effort in the future to try and consume this on a much greater regular basis. These findings only add to the already strong evidence of the benefits of these pretty tasty goodies.
