How did I miss this little bit of reporting? I seem to have missed the media crying out that Louisiana has been choosing economic benefit over safety. Check the date of the post article.
But all finger pointing aside, I heard on the news today that Louisiana has brought engineers from Holland to look at their flood protection systems. I was very much surprised as I think this is a really good idea as the Dutch have amazingly well thought out flood control systems. I agree completely with the last paragraph of the link. ;-)
I’ve been thinking that New Orleans should not be rebuilt in it’s current location, but it’s been mostly a from a financial and human tragedy perspective. Now added to the list is the environmental perspective.
When will the crusade against smoking end? Certainly not when they have run out of logical legislation to enact.
Studies showing huge health risks resulting from second hand smoke are dubious enough to be considered (by me at least) junk science. Now the useless data is being emotionally extrapolated to the great outdoors, a place where no study of secondhand smoke has gone before. Without scientific support, this bit of legislation is little more than feel good law.
Why do the states not just make tobacco a controlled substance, sell it in the pharmacy, and stop their nasty little relationship with tobacco (the one where the left hand waves a disapproving finger while the right hand accepts the tax money from sales)?
Just FYI… I don’t smoke either… I just think the government should stop they hypocrisy.
Rural Sourcing Inc. provides outsourcing services with American labor.

Hmmm, I wonder if the product came from the famous Iraq “Baby Milk Factory”?

I’m not sure what specifically to make of this study, but I’ve posted so everyone can extract their own meaning… ;-)
Chavez practicing his own version of foreign policy…
Does it surprise anyone that the Socialist/Populist/Anti-Capitalist Chavez did not like a free trade agreement?
He is more than just a little paranoid too…
