Don't mind the title, chosen purely for attention :lol:. I think he's probably the most devoted crusader against wasteful spending, but it seems in this case he's pulling a fast one. http://www.sciam.com/article.cfm?id=...eef-with-bears But, what's this? He actually voted for the bill, and...

This thread is weird. The posts appear in triplicate.

Lots of news as of late concerning ocean health and looming threats. The first bit, and the one that has received the most attention, is a study which appears in Science, led by Ben Halpern from the NOAA titled "A Global Map of Human Impact on Marine Ecosystems." (sub. req'd) The findings are...

Some of the science forum regulars may remember I posted some info on the Triana-DSCOVR-GORESAT satellite that to this day remains packed in a box. I stumbled across an article from ScienceDaily that seems very ironic given the weird circumstances surrounding DSCOVR. NASA will launch the...

THE COMPANY that wanted to develop a quarry on Digby Neck will seek damages of at least US$188 million for the way Canada handled its environmental review of the project. In a notice of intent to be filed today in Ottawa, Bilcon of Delaware is seeking a massive compensation package under the...

I noticed starting yesterday, that I was having problems accessing a number of websites that I view regularly. Anyone else having problems? Examples of sites I can't visit, YouTube, Gristmill.org, in fact almost all .org's from Environmental organizations and news websites. Is there a problem...

You know, the colossal gall of some people never fails to arouse my contempt for such stupid ideas. This Christmas season, a partnership between Vancouver based Northern Dynasty Minerals, and Anglo-American has spawned an idea which could finish off the last sustainably caught and non-toxic(...

I'm surprised this isn't up on the pages yet. For an administration who were wrong on nuclear WMD in Iraq, now comes a blow that Iran's program ended in 2003, according to an intelligence report released in Washington. This only adds support to the IAEA stance that evidence is lacking for a...

Some wacko apparently has taken two hostages at a Clinton campaign office in New Hampshire. The man is demanding to speak with Hillary. Obama and Edwards have closed their offices in the area.

The recent Hazardous Materials Act actually allows the import, marketing and sale of children's toys containing asbestos. It's high time that Canada put an end to the asbestos mining industry. I think most Canadians are probably unaware of our own track record when it comes to this hazardous...

This year's whaling by Japan in the Southern Ocean will take 1000 minkes and 50 fin whales. For the first time in 30 years, the humpbacks will also be targeted by the harpoons. The Japanese are arguing that they must kill the humpbacks to get an accurate view of the genetic make-up of the...

This bike is powered by the new nano-phosphate lithium ion batteries, the next generation of batteries released last year. The bike is powered by the new DeWalt battery packs that now utilize this technology. Impressive:smile:

(right-click, view image for high res ;) ) For $80,000 you can get this 4-door plug-in hybrid sports sedan from Fisker automotive, called Quantum Drive. Seems they've found a way to sex up the hybrids. But this car boasts more than impressive exterior styling, the performance is equally...

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/11/09/MNVQT8TN3.DTL ... Oil began leaking into the water after the 65,131-ton, 810-foot-long ship crashed into the base of a tower of the Bay Bridge's western span in heavy fog at about 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. Within an hour, six emergency...
