30 logos but do they tell us anything
30 Modern Corporate Logo Designs | Naldz Graphics: "Below are 30 corporate logos (created for "bricks and mortar" corporations - such as insurance companies, consultants and recruitment firms) that are fresh, modern and upbeat." It seems odd to me that as identity design increases there is less and less awareness of what corporate entities actually do.Global Online Privacy
Sure let's all grow shells and live forever
Turtles could hold the secret to human immortality: "All animals eventually grow old and die. It's an inevitable fact of life - except when it isn't. Some animals, like tortoises and lobsters, never grow old, and learning their secrets could let humans live as long as they want." I love the pictures with this. I doubt we can learn that much from a reptile. But who am I to discourage an alternative to cryonics which to me is simply macabre.

Any hand that deals death is a wrong hand?
Will Foreign Drones One Day Attack the U.S.? - Newsweek: "The unmanned spy plane that Lebanon's Hizbullah sent buzzing over Israeli towns in 2005 was loud and weaponless, and carried only a rudimentary camera. But the surprise flight by a regional terror group still worried U.S. analysts, who saw it as a sign that the unmanned vehicles were falling into the wrong hands." Yeah, well. We are clearly the right hands. Is this American exceptionalism or American hubris. I vote for the latter. This is the thinnest ice I've ever seen.

Droning our way into what pray tell? Global robo cop?
U.S. drone targets two leaders of Somali group allied with al-Qaeda - The Washington Post: "The airstrike makes Somalia at least the sixth country where the United States is using drone aircraft to conduct lethal attacks, joining Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya, Iraq and Yemen. And it comes as the CIA is expected to begin flying armed drones over Yemen in its hunt for al-Qaeda operatives."

When the poison you have lying around zaps your pet
Animals Poisoned Too Close To Home | Animal Tales: "Vermin poison: you might be trying to get rid of unwanted rodents or slugs, but these chemicals can cause excessive internal bruising or bleeding in your pet if ingested. The effects might not be immediately obvious, but the results are very serious." Toxicity is so endemic these days that one rarely considers one's pets. But if you value them, read this salient warning. Instructive. Heck, generally instructive karma food.
Isolationism Is Not A Worry A Just World Is
The G.O.P. Turns Inward - NYTimes.com: "Following the path of isolationism today won’t serve America well. Nor will it help the Republicans." The GOP does not exist except as a nightmare to scare children with. The world goes on despite them. The problem is that the world does onot accept a full democratic revolution of the nonviolent sort. And we do not speak up for it enough in our culture or academies. We should be afraid of a world that cannot achieve the inmost impulses of all the people who live here. That would be for freedom, a chance to earn a living and minimal interference in choices and movements.

Malia and Sasha are More Mature Than Boehner and Cantor
In Deficit Plan, Taxes Must Rise, President Warns - NYTimes.com: “Malia and Sasha generally finish their homework a day ahead of time,” the president said, in a tone of rising exasperation. “They don’t wait until the night before. They’re not pulling all-nighters.” Such inside sources in Manhattan tell me that anyone with any sense knows this deal will get done. But to watch the GOP you would not know it. These are the Wall Street toadies. Why should we suffer a possible default because of their childish antics?

The Deity is penalizing the rich on the Jersey shore with a slime invasion (Video)
Slimy invasion plagues Jersey Shore | News - Local Philadelphia - Yahoo! News: "Walt Hunter reports from Ocean City, NJ where small jellyfish-like creatures are washing up on the beach in large numbers." If the well-to-do want to keep the hoi polloi from their pristine beaches the Deity may just make their playground a bit less pristine. Be careful what you wish for, you rich.

Oil Befouling The Ocean Onward To Hell (1967 - 2004)
The Mariner Group -- Oil Spill History No I am not adding the barrels. I am saying that the mentality that continues to see oil as our salvation will continue to be our nemesis. This is just a reminder that that BP was part of a half century of desecration to prop up a misbegotten economy based on oil and cars and the sprawl consumption pattern it engendered. Hell is not supernatural. It is what we create by our own individual decisions.
