Law may leave thousands of animals in misery
Animals in a Hong Kong pet shop (Reuters)
17 Apr 2012
Hundreds of dog owners and breeders gathered recently in Hong Kong for the city's prestigious Kennel Club show.
However, as the popularity of thoroughbred dogs increases, loopholes in Hong Kong's breeding laws mean thousands of animals could be living in misery.
A Pharaoh Hound called Amber won the top prize at the Hong Kong Kennel Club's dog show, beating over 200 thoroughbreds for best exhibit in show. Amber was bought by her owner, Godfrey Lau, from Australia six months ago.
Mr Lau bought Amber to breed with his existing male Pharaoh Hound. But he said that due to their size, he didn't expect there to be a …

Millions against Monsanto: The food fight of our lives
April 16, 2012, “Monsanto should not have to vouchsafe the safety of biotech food. Our interest is in selling as much of it as possible. Assuring its safety is the FDA’s job.” – Phil Angell, Monsanto’s director of corporate communications, quoted in the New York Times, October 25, 1998
For nearly two decades, Monsanto and corporate agribusiness have exercised near-dictatorial control over American agriculture, aided and abetted by indentured politicians and regulatory agencies, supermarket chains, giant food processors, and the so-called “natural” products industry.
Finally, public opinion around the biotech industry’s contamination of our food supply and destruction of our environment has reached the tipping point. We’re fighting back.

xdrfox. It's my opinion that the associations of green, anti, nuke, Monsanto, activists, extinction, mass animal deaths, peace, Fukushima, Japan, are all thought to be negative topics by the general public. Therefore lacking attention naturally.
If we could come up with a neutral term, or positive feed that would get the truth to a greater audience.
Example; A non treated, non painted piece of wood lasts 3 to 5 years. That same piece of wood treated or painted lasts 15-20. Today I painted a man with information vital to his survival. He listened, and his sarcasm was unfruitful. Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit. ~ Boring I know but just an example.
True story by the way, when I found that mutated flower today and he seen me in the corner showing a female the flower, he thought of course I was giving it to her, funny.
Painted being a new strategy "term" to communicate the event. A neutral or different term, to define a new time. Any ideas?

The repercussions with the scientific community, and professionals here will have to be thought out. Is this a good idea? Well, will the consequences outweigh the benefits?

Dental X-rays Linked to Twofold Increase in Brain Cancer
…records of 1,433 patients who were diagnosed with meningioma between May 2006 and April 2011. The researchers made a control group matched for sex, age, and geography.
Researchers found that bitewing X-rays (showing upper and lower back teeth) performed less than once per year was associated with patients being 1.1 to 1.6 times more likely to experience meningioma across age groups.
They also found that annual or more frequent panorex dental X-ray (an X-ray showing all teeth and surrounding bones) exposure increased odds by 2.7 to 3.0 in 3 of the oldest age groups, while x-rays performed “before age 10 was associated with a meningioma odds ratio of 4.9.”…

The Fukushima 3D Map is now ready for download (Version 1).
It is generated in the Unreal Development Kit, a 3D gaming system and is intended as a free educational tool to explore the campus and surrounds of Fukushima Daiichi. It's certainly not 100% accurate though, so please don't expect an epic quality, detailed experience.
The map has been packaged with the UDK into a 270MByte file.
It can be run and installed on a Windows PC. It contains all that is required (there maybe a Windows DirectX update).
A more permanent location for the file is being sort, but in the meantime it can be found at the link at the end of this posting.
Here are some screen shots ..

Forest Service in Quandary About Frozen Cows in US
April 18, 2012
Denver. The US Forest Service is considering explosives to move a bunch of frozen cows that died after getting stuck inside a cabin at an elevation of 3,350 meters in Colorado’s Rocky Mountains.
Forest Service spokesman Steve Segin said on Tuesday that rangers are worried about the high fire danger and discussed other solutions when they met on Tuesday, including using helicopters or trucks.
Segin said using helicopters is too expensive and rangers are worried about using trucks in a wilderness area, where the government bars permanent improvements and tries to preserve the natural habitat.
Other options include burning the cabin and dragging the dead cows out with pack animals, he said.

The Fukushima 3D Map is now ready for download (Version 1).
It is generated in the Unreal Development Kit, a 3D gaming system and is intended as a free educational tool to explore the campus and surrounds of Fukushima Daiichi. It's certainly not 100% accurate though, so please don't expect an epic quality, detailed experience.
The map has been packaged with the UDK into a 270MByte file.
It can be run and installed on a Windows PC. It contains all that is required (there maybe a Windows DirectX update).
A more permanent location for the file is being sort, but in the meantime it can be found at the link at the end of this posting.
Here are some screen shots ..

As it is a gaming system, it will have 'bots trying to shot at you by default. You can turn them off in the settings before you start a round.
It would be great to take the file further, although it's taken nearly two weeks to get this far. Development will have to wait for another time.
The usual anti-virus warnings apply, all attempts have been taken to provide a clean file.

I think it comes down to the de-centralization of the power source. If you have solar on your home you can tap it directly and not be beholden to the utility. There is much more power and wealth in a centralized source. Wind and solar farms continue the centralized source. The utility will only pay a fraction when net-metering to keep the small guy from affording the tech.

The Population Control Holocaust
“Malthusianism has always been closely linked to racism, because the desire for population control has as its foundation the hatred of others….
“But while ruining the lives of millions of people, the steep rise in sterilization figures had little impact on the overall trajectory of India’s population growth….
“Since in rural India sons are considered essential to continue the family line and provide support for parents in their old age, this limit caused many families to seek means of disposing of infant daughters, frequently through drowning, asphyxiation, abandonment in sewers or garbage dumps, or incineration on funeral pyres….
“Babies born in China in spite of the one-child policy are declared “black children” and have no right to food, health care, or education. If female, they are frequently killed, either at birth, or if apprehended later, at orphanages where they are gathered. Shown above is Mei Ming, a two-year-old girl tied to a chair in a “dying room.” The bucket below her is to catch her urine and feces as she dies over the next several days from starvation and neglect. The above photo was taken by a British TV crew during their filming of the 1995 documentary exposé The Dying Rooms. The Chinese government denies the existence of dying rooms….”

Artificially created earthquakes > Proof! I took these screen shots below of seismic activity in Turkey 18.04.2012. I have been watching earthquake activity for years. Recently I have been noticing these earthquake grid patterns appear occasionally.
No way this is natural, earthquake activity is random. These earthquake grids when they appear consist of lots of small earthquakes around 2 to 3 on the Richter scale all around the same depth. These small grid earthquake patterns can last for days.
They tend to try and hide this activity by clustering a lot of small earthquakes in a relativity small area. Unless you focus in on this cluster activity and magnify it, you would not notice it.
This activity has been quite for some time but I detected this yesterday on the European Mediterranean Seismological Centre ( http://www.emsc-csem.org/Earthquake/Map/gmap.php ) web site and took these screen shots.

These earthquake patterns can last for days in one place.
Is it like pushing softly on the plate to see what will happen or is it to try and relieve plate pressure?
Or is it "Look what we can do," cooperate or else?
The other question is who is doing it?
I wrote a blog about it last year.

Turkey to hold int'l talks on building nuclear power plant
2012-04-13
“Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Minister Taner Yildiz said Friday that Turkey would hold international talks on the construction of a nuclear power plant in the country….
“Turkey plans to build two nuclear power plants in the next decade. In May 2010, Turkey and Russia signed a deal for the construction of Turkey's first nuclear power plant in Akkuyu, a small town on the Mediterranean coast.
“The project is expected to cost about 20 billion U.S. dollars. Russian state-owned atomic power company ROSATOM is likely to start building the Akkuyu nuclear power plant in 2013 and the first reactor is planned to generate electricity in 2018.
“Turkey started talks with Japan last year to build its second nuclear power plant in the Black Sea coastal province of Sinop in the north. However, the talks were interrupted after the massive earthquake that hit Japan in March last year. “

“The earthquake that killed more than 150,000 people in Haiti this month may have left clues to petroleum reservoirs that could aid economic recovery in the Western Hemisphere's poorest nation, a geologist said.
“The Jan. 12 earthquake was on a fault line that passes near potential gas reserves, said Stephen Pierce, a geologist who worked in the region for 30 years for companies including the former Mobil Corp. The quake may have cracked rock formations along the fault, allowing gas or oil to temporarily seep toward the surface, he said Monday.
"A geologist, callous as it may seem, tracing that fault zone from Port-au-Prince to the border looking for gas and oil seeps, may find a structure that hasn't been drilled," said Pierce, exploration manager at Zion Oil & Gas, a Dallas-based company that's drilling in Israel. "A discovery could significantly improve the country's economy and stimulate further exploration."
