Reproach With Caution

Delicious sarcasm

Totally ridiculous. The word “rape” is apparently beginning to lose its meaning.

Among the things the new Missouri abortion law mandates is an informational brochure that includes this statement:

“The life of each human being begins at conception. Abortion will terminate the life of a separate, unique, living human being.”

And here I thought that questions about the nature of life and when it begins were still quite up in the air. Apparently not; the State of Missouri solved it.

As Amy Goodman points out, no one at BP nor Massey Energy has yet been indicted for their massive, serious crimes.  This guy’s crime was to hang up two banners (with a decent message, no less).  Perhaps this is instructive when considering what the law and prison are for.

Yet the latest awesome example I have seen of biomimicry.  Also check out The Biomimicry Institute.

The POV of power, spoken earnestly by one of its servants.

YES

Unfuckingbelievable.  And what exactly constitutes “clearly an inappropriate protest”?  

(also, note the pro-Israel ads on the LA Times’ website)

Add this one to the BP Prez’s statement that they care about the “small people” What is surprising, of course, is not the sentiment. It’s the willingness to express it to the media.

I have always felt that soccer gets trashed in America, especially by the far right, because 1) America doesn’t win all the time & 2) (right wing) Americans hate multiculturalism.
