I agree with Alannah - this situation is so frustrating as an individual - its all being decided with or without us.

Biofuel from algae is a brilliant option, as is biofuel made from recycled vegetable oil - all that grease from all those fast food joints could go to good use.

The first step is for us to accept that no resource is unlimited - more reuse, more recylcling, more walking, more sharing resources. Why is it so frickin expensive to buy a train ticket in America!? And why do all our cars get such measly gas mileage compared to those in other parts of the world....

its pretty fair to hate images of war - its just a weird image in with all the other fairly peace-loving or natural-world kind of imagery. Support wars for good reasons, or not, what ever - its just not really in keeping.

Nevermind my earlier comment about noone helping the bird - this is why one should never comment before reading the source material!

This from the LA Times story:

But an elaborate plan is hatching to move the macaw to Christmas Island and eventually to Los Angeles, one of two U.S. ports that will accept exotic birds.

"We have an amazing network of bird lovers that came in to get involved in this," bird enthusiast Peter Foreman said. "So, by golly, if they can do it for Snickers, they can do it for Gulliver."

Well said Munky :0)

All the mean comments about her looking like a plucked chicken: I see your point, but rather than making me think Oscar's gross, its making me re-think eating chicken...

I would imagine most cultures frown upon marriage before puberty?

This makes me think of the current situation with the fundamentalist Christian group in Texas - child abuse or cultural norms?

So many questions above can be answered by the article Will was good enough to post:

Poor guy - 2 days in an elevator ruined his life.
