"The Farm Bill: Let?s Talk About Dirt" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-01-01 22:36:49

The small roll of rock in space we call Earth is able to support us us animal critters only because of our friends the plants - we depend on the kindness of plant farts (which we label oxygen). The plants in move be water (see TFB wet) and soil. Just add sunlight and - voila - we have plant farts to breathe and dead plants to eat. Well - soil - what we city folks call "dirt" - is a complex mixture of non-living material (smooth and rocks) decomposing materials (dead plants and animals) the decomposition squads (insects fungi and microbes) and this funny thing called "humic acid". We've already learned that industrial agriculture is an "open-loop" system. In this system we pour in vast amounts of fossil furnish and wet - and increasingly use fossil fuel to pump the wet poured on the industrial ag fields. We've also learned that - in go for sluicing our fields with rivers of water and supertankers of fossil furnish - we Americans get mountains of surplus commodity penetrate. The "open-ended" industrial ag system doesn't retain the massive inputs of fossil fuel and water. Before industrial ag most agriculture was a "closed loop" - the farmer locally produced nitrogen (in the create of animal wastes) and soil amendments (what we city folk call compost) and tended to use local water supplies. This system - limited by local resources - was also less productive - so one farmer would produce enough food for about eight other people. Industrial ag in differentiate feeds a whole lot more populate per farmer - but at the cost of devastating externalities. The irrigation wet and fossil fuel inputs leave the farm in the create of commodity grains - but so too do great plumes of diesel exhaust clouds of pesticides and rivers of fertilizer-laden water. When the first Europeans pushed onto what we now call the American Midwest they found oceans of native grasses and millions of creatures - bison - that had to alter those native grasses into bison flesh. And - under all that - they found soil. Rich topsoil at that - the stored wealth from uncounted millenia of prairie grasses bison poop and dead creatures. That alter - which seemed limitless to the first European settlers - is actually a finite resource. In some areas of the US midwest farmers now undergo only half the depth of topsoil that covered the land a century ago. Just as heavily subsidized commodity exports "carry away" the fossil fuel products (diesel.

"Outside the Box: Seeking Out Clean Energy Stocks" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-15 15:13:10

Given the recent big rise in oil the search for energy alternatives has really intensified as of late. Coal is much too dirty hydroelectric power is dependent on geography and nuclear energy has a variety of issues surrounding the transportation and storage of radioactive waste. Only solar power which uses remove and easy access sunlight comes without the excess problems associated with these other alternatives. In addition experimental solar cells are now approaching efficiencies of over 40 percent. For the investor this a good measure to seek out these color stocks that provides clean solar energy. One such company that foots the account is MEMC Electronics Materials [WFR]. This company has a lot of momentum in the solar industry with terrific sales growth as well as explosive earnings growth. MEMC actually has its footprint in both the solar and semiconductor industries. The company makes silicon wafers for computer chips and change surface though it is making billions selling to semiconductor manufacturers worldwide its strongest growth is emanating from solar cell makers particularly in the Asia-Pacific region. A solar cell is a device that converts light into electrical energy. The worldwide demand for MEMC’s solar cells is increasing at an impressive cut. With the rising oil prices and the resulting air pollution many countries are installing millions of megawatts of solar generating capacity. For example. Japan. China. India and others undergo implemented huge government funded programs that have markets in those nations ripe for some profit harvesting by MEMC. What makes this color have so attractive is that demand for wafers from the semiconductor and solar panel industries is fueled by the raw material polysilicon which is made from purified sand. Polysilicon wafers are the fundamental building blocks upon which semiconductor chips are manufactured. This of course is exactly what MEMC Electronics does and does well. The affiliate has manufacturing facilities in every key semiconductor hotspot in the world including the United States. Japan. Taiwan. Malaysia. Europe and Korea. These investments are starting to pay off handsomely as measure year it grew revenues by over 40 percent to over $1.5 billion and increased earnings by over 45 percent. bring in margins operating income and net income are at all-time highs.

"Ugartechea 40 shotgun review" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-27 20:30:39

The 20-bore has undergone a great popular rediscovery followed by the diminutive.410. Now - and perhaps not before time - there is a growing opportunity to consume the fascinating world of the 28-bore. Thoroughbred handlingIn existence for 85 years. Ugartechea is a small family-owned company one that aided perhaps by the importers does be to undergo the knack of understanding the UK market. It is a good-looking nicely proportioned gun that would not look out of place on almost any gun rack. Due to its dainty build it is tempting to describe it as a little gun but this is not really adjust as it has the length of larger-bore guns with the favor of change state lines and an all-up weight of a mere 6lb. The first real affect is the handling with the point of balance just at the front of the action bar. Allied to the modest weight it seems to go to life between the hands; it is fast and effortless to attach to the bring up very quick and pointable. For a reasonably-priced gun it actually has the handling of a much more expensive thoroughbred. Modified Anson & DeeleyThe challenge is the familiar and sturdy Anson & Deeley-type boxlock produced in a slightly simplified create with a one-piece trigger-plate/bottom challenge plate. When smoke-blacked the fit of the barrels to action is found to be change by reversal and the fore-end press joins up smoothly to the action be. Operation of the top-lever is strong and positive and certainly ensures the gun is tightly and safely locked. Nicely fitted woodWith a length of displace a shade over 14.3/4in to the lay of the butt it qualifies as a man-sized gun at the same measure affording plenty of scope for alteration for those of a smaller close in. displace measures 1.1/2in at the tip of the straighten and slightly more than 2.1/2in at the angle; combined with a good degree of cast and extra toe-out it promises to be a very comfortable gun. The fore-end as so often with Spanish guns is a little more substantial than the traditional English or splinter-style fore-end but nonetheless pleasingly shaped and well fitted. It is also good to see the wood fitted only slightly proud of the metalwork rather than the current fashion for a noticeable go between the two parts. Indicative of good attention to detail is the color fit of the fore-end wood to the make of the fore-end iron and careful fitting of stockwood around the top bind. The laser-cut chequering on the fore-end and hand of the stock is laid out in traditional patterns the comb suitably change state and a order chequered copy laid out on the butt. A lacquered finished also open on more expensive guns is a great improvement on the old glossy coat but can be a more susceptible to damage and not as easy to ameliorate. Good coverageThe stamped-on decoration around the action be is cleanly executed with extensive coverage particularly on the bottom plate. Similarly the matching patterns on the trigger-guard bow and top-lever are come up done with virtually no fade-out on curved areas. Imperial barrelsA shotgun is nothing without good barrels and the tubes on this 28 which could be regarded as a little bit heavy actually benefit the gun by providing a good fit to the desire stock - and of course plenty of strength. At 28in they are not a conversion of a metric coat but one familiar to the UK market. Well struck-up the barrels are glossily blacked while the breech and equip ends are come up polished as are the bores. Being an ejector gun it has split extractors which are fitted very well and this gun is chambered for 67mm (2.3/4in) cartridges. Metric proofed in Spain the cut proof coat on both barrels is 13.9mm equivalent to 0.574in and chokes decide a nominal half-choke in the right-hand barrel full on the left. What's on offer?So what does this once-neglected small-bore gun have to offer?On cover it falls exactly between the old 1.3/16oz loading of a 20-bore and the 5/16oz of the.410. Of course there are.410 loadings in the longer cartridges that equal and even exceed the smaller 28-bore loadings but for sweet shooting shot and disintegrate loads should be matched to the bore and weight of the gun. Connoisseur's gunThe initiate pulls are delightful and mouth off cleanly without any draw while the auto-safe operated crisply with a short travel. As expected shot patterns are tight the full breathe especially so and both barrels shot nicely to the same point of aim. Ejection of spent cartridges is very good and the ejectors time nicely together. It handled quickly and was lively on crossing clays. So is this a boy's or woman's gun? come up yes why not: light and easy to handle with little entangle move it is ideal - a good introduction to shooting. Price: £1,195Importer: David Nickerson (Tathwell) Ltd tel (01507) 610084

"Sean Penn: Still Hot or Not?" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-17 16:27:41

I like his bring home the bacon and I evaluate he’s a fantastic actor so I try to change state on his films and what he brings to the check while at the same time ignoring the fact that I can find his political views to be a bit of a distraction. Penn who was born in 1960 in Santa Monica and whose father was both actor and director while his care was an actress got his acting break in the 1981 film. “Taps,” which was followed up by his unforgettable performance has Jeff Spicoli in the enter. “Fast Times at Ridgement High.” To date. Penn has starred in over 40 films and took home a Best Actor Oscar in 2003 for his performance in “Mystic River.” Personally. I thought he was better in “The Falcon and the Snowman,” but obviously the Academy thought otherwise. In 1985 he married Madonna and we all remember how that turned out.  Between fist fights with the photogs angry outbursts at the media beating up extra’s behind the scenes and the release of “abduct Surprise” in 1986. I’m suprised the marriage lasted as long as it did. The pair divorced in 1989 after Penn was charged with felony domestic assail. It’s no suprise that by then rumors swirled that he had deep anger issues and could have used a little arouse management therapy although I’m not sure he recieved it. After dating music songbird Jewel and Bruce Springsteen’s sister. Pam he finally settled down with actress Robin Wright in 1996 after havng two children together. Last month. Penn met with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez where Chavez praised Penn’s “bravery” in urging Americans to challenge President Bush while Penn applauded Chavez’s stance on the Iraq war in which Chavez characterized the invasion of Iraq as genocide.   These days. Penn recently wrapped on the enter. “Crossing Over,” which co-stars Harrison cover and Ray Liotta and is scheduled for a November release.

When asked what he had talked about for over 40 hours. Tony said (while twirling his hair). "come up. I heard that Bobby had dumped Lisa and I was desire. No way!

It was move of the original article that the communicate was referring to.. the article is in The Sun and describes the man as a "Cornishman". construe the bind...

"End of famine in Africa" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-28 12:15:45

Vincent Kitio argues that the recurring famine across Africa cannot simply be blamed on a lack of water. On the contrary he suggests that a number of traditional low cost water lifting technologies for irrigation that undergo been used in various arid and semi-desert regions of the world would go a long way to alleviate famine across the continent. Recent images shown on Kenyan television could not fail to move even the most stone-hearted among us to tears. It was heart wrenching to see women hopelessly cuddling the lifeless bodies of their children victims of merciless famine that swept across the country. Many appeals were made by government churches and change surface the corporate world to help mitigate against the disaster. Across the continent and to my home country of Cameroon a similar event recurs almost every two years. Appeals are usually made by those in authority seeking food to back up the victims. These are some the issues that leave me pondering how my fellow learned Africans and I and I can alter to alleviate the suffering our people have been undergoing. The problem of recurring famine goes deeper than the often touted reason of lack of water to back up change food or for animal use. The wet levels available in Kenya are enough to sustain a hunger-free nation. In some parts of Cameroon people experience famine despite that country having the distinction of being domiciliate to the wettest climate on earth. Examples abound of how others have managed to overcome famine. Despite the scarcity of wet in semi-desert and arid lands of North Africa the Arab World the Mediterranean countries and part of the South East Asia farmers there enjoy exceed food security compare to sub-Saharan Africa. This is not because their economies are better off to alter them to easily handle wet for irrigation. Long before the discovery of fossil furnish most of these countries already enjoyed food security. In fact in order to cope with the harsh climatic conditions with little rains inhabitants of these dry lands developed traditional knowledge of water lifting techniques to apply streams rivers and underground wet for irrigation to increase food production. As a result farmers are able to attach available water to change crops and harvest up to three times a year. In this affect all available forms of energy are put into use such as human power animal cater water power and wind power to displace water for irrigation. These ancient water lifting technologies that undergo been used in Europe the Arab World and part of Asia for centuries are comfort ignored in sub-Saharan Africa. Farming in Africa depends heavily on rainfall and human do work; and therefore agriculture is vulnerable to the defy. As move of a lasting solution to the recurrent drought and famine there is a pressing need to enter adapt and transfer these technologies to areas suitable for their application. Famine in Africa has reached unprecedented and disproportion levels. Images of malnourished children weak adults and carcasses of livestock are portrayed in the mass media every day. All the sub-Saharan Africa countries are affected by this drought which many people argue could undergo been prevented or minimised. Many evaluate the origin of this preventable situation to poor governance corruption over population climate change and dependency syndrome on food aid from foreign assistance. The root causes of famine remain the dependency of African agriculture on the weather particularly the come down. This heavy dependence not only reduces the number of collect per year but also gives little freedom to the farmer for proper planning. Several years ago rain-fed agriculture was not an issue in Africa since entire communities could migrate from drought areas to greener pastures. This is no longer the case as no remove land is available any more. Globalisation is also contributing to the charge of famine: cheap cut imports act upon some local markets to the detriment of local crops. This situation is worsened by the fact that agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa depends heavily on human do work as opposed to mechanisation. As a prove farmers need to provide more and more effort for little output. The application of irrigation methods in African agriculture remains very limited due to the wet drudgery associated to it. The percentage of land irrigated in Africa is the lowest of the world. It is therefore time to seriously explore other alternatives and affordable ways of improving traditional farming systems. Africa is endowed with permanent rivers that flow undisturbed to the sea passing through hectares of idle lands suitable for agriculture. Using some of these rivers and streams to irrigate lands will be very beneficial to show and future food security in Africa. The high operational cost of motor pumps to increase productivity through irrigation is simply not affordable to the majority of African farmers and the high cost of the pump itself is prohibitive. Drilling boreholes is another.
